 13:01 <mihir> hello popey nik90  :)

 13:01 <nik90> hello

 13:01 <nik90> is kunal joining as well?

 13:01 <popey> Hi guys, hows it going?

 13:01 <popey> If he's around.

 13:02 <mihir> popey: going good and busy :D

 13:02 <nik90> going grrt

 13:02 <nik90> hi kunal

 13:02 <mihir> hey kunal  :)

 13:02 <popey> hey kunal !

 13:03 <kunal> HI all

 13:03 <nik90> wow nice to be in a meeting with many people ;)

 13:04 <popey> Shall we take a look at http://people.canonical.com/~dpm/core-apps-sponsoring/ to start?

 13:04 <nik90> Sure

 13:04 <popey> we are down to only 5 merges, but a couple are over 2 weeks old.

 13:05 <mihir> out of that , one is for Translator

 13:06 <mihir> it is left with merge in trunk, nik90  i guess we can push another branch with change

 13:06 <popey> lets start at the top..

 13:06 <popey> https://code.launchpad.net/~pkunal-parmar/ubuntu-calendar-app/YearView-curmonth-scroll/+merge/230781

 13:06 * popey pokes balloons with the above

 13:07 * davmor2 so want that to read, pokes balloons with pin and watches them explode

 13:08 <mihir> davmor2: hahaha

 13:08 <nik90> kunal: do you know what needs to be done with the MP ^^ ?

 13:08 <popey> looks like some AP changes, right balloons ?

 13:09 <kunal> yes, I suggested some workaround , balloons thinks test needs to be modified,

 13:10 <popey> ok

 13:12 <popey> how about the next one? https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-calendar-dev/ubuntu-calendar-app/add-tests-for-future-and-past-events/+merge/232150

 13:12 <mihir> popey: it is incomplete

 13:13 <balloons> ahh yes, the yearview. I need to push the branch changes I have. I think given kunal's changes, we should add another test to check the default view and make sure the current month is in view on load

 13:13 <mihir> popey: i made comment , last..no changes have been made afterwards

 13:13 <popey> ok.

 13:13 <nik90> mihir, popey: I think it should be marked as wip since it is

 13:13 * mihir puts branch in WIP

 13:14 <popey> is it still blocked?

 13:14 <popey> yes, -> WIP +1

 13:14 <popey> oh, its the 2038 issue. fun.

 13:14 <mihir> popey: nope i believe as I understood bug correctly, as balloons mentioned regarding large timestamp

 13:14 <popey> lets put that off until 2036 to be safe

 13:14 <balloons> if you won't to use datepicker, yes.

 13:14 <mihir> balloons: what if we use date picker and choose 2017 , will this cause an issue?

 13:15 <balloons> mihir, you would need to set a limit inside the qml to avoid the error

 13:15 <popey> https://code.launchpad.net/~uriboni/ubuntu-calendar-app/fix-translations-with-arg/+merge/232903 needs trunk merge?

 13:16 <mihir> popey: yes

 13:16 <popey> not seen Ugo about...

 13:16 * popey pokes bfiller

 13:16 <popey> poked

 13:17 <popey> how about https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-calendar-dev/ubuntu-calendar-app/filesRestructure/+merge/234365  ?

 13:17 <popey> is that WIP?

 13:17 <popey> doesn't look complete

 13:18 <mihir> popey: It requires CMake updates, we'll work on this now, we can put in WIP. nik90  is that correct?

 13:18 <nik90> popey: it is a WIP

 13:18 <nik90> it requires CMAKE updates, however me and mihir have been occupied with the view redesigns

 13:19 <nik90> it will take some time before it can be merged

 13:19 <popey> ok

 13:23 <mihir> i'll put that in WIP

 13:23 <popey> thanks

 13:23 <popey> Then there's the ongoing UI updates.

 13:23 <mihir> done

 13:24 <popey> I really appreciate you guys all making effort to make the app more usable and better looking.

 13:24 <nik90> yw

 13:24 <mihir> popey: :)

 13:25 <mihir> kunal: can you review the new design and code ?

 13:25 <nik90> kunal: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-calendar-dev/ubuntu-calendar-app/ViewRedisign/+merge/234680

 13:25 <balloons> mihir, on the datepicker issue, it might be worth setting the limit to work around the problem, but you won't be able to set an event date later than 2036

 13:26 <mihir> balloons: that is for AP right ? so how about we make AP and choose dates lesser than 2036 until we get fix ?

 13:26 <kunal> sure will have alook

 13:26 <mihir> kunal: thanks :)

 13:26 <balloons> mihir, the limit must be set in the qml

 13:27 <balloons> but I have to talk to the AP guys , the merge has been setting there but they are concerned about it breaking things like calendar

 13:27 <mihir> balloons: okay

 13:27 <balloons> sadly https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-calendar-app/+bug/1291225 makes it hard to tell

 13:28 <balloons> so they aren't sure they want to merge it, and I'm not sure of the status of what they will do.

 13:28 <mihir> kunal: that branch is under cal-dev , so you can push directly to that branch

 13:28 <kunal> ok

 13:33 <mihir> balloons: okay , we can try limit as of now ,but it may create problem while syncing if there are any events beyond it :| not sure weather it is valid usecase or not

 13:33 <nik90> kunal: quick question, when you import a calendar from google, do you set the calendar color to what was set in google? Or you convert it to one of the 8 colors you defined in the calendar app?

 13:34 <popey> does google expose those colours?

 13:34 <nik90> erm not sure

 13:34 <nik90> kunal: ^^

 13:34 <kunal> actually we dont do anything

 13:34 <kunal> we set color to collection

 13:35 <kunal> and EDS when sync events from google

 13:35 <kunal> associate those events with certain collection

 13:35 <kunal> and then we use that collection;s color with event

 13:35 <nik90> so the colors are from google?

 13:35 <kunal> no

 13:36 <kunal> our own color

 13:36 <popey> i see nothing in the ical or xml output from google to show the colour a calendar uses.

 13:36 <popey> unless it's encoded in some special way

 13:37 <nik90> ah ok

 13:37 <kunal> yes, I think its not something comes from google or ical

 13:37 <nik90> that makes what I am about to do a bit easier :)

 13:37 <kunal> it depends on users's choice

 13:38 <nik90> kunal: also we only sync google's primary calendar?

 13:38 <popey> yes

 13:38 <nik90> kunal: is it possible to get other calendars of the user as well?

 13:38 <nik90> popey: is that a design decision or a technical limitation?

 13:38 <popey> be good to pull the others if we could but I think that's something eds determines

 13:38 <popey> the latter I _think_

 13:38 <nik90> ah ok

 13:38 <popey> renato___: may know... ☻

 13:39 <kunal> yes, that depends on EDS

 13:40 <popey> although I'm pretty sure EDS on the desktop can sync multiple calendars

 13:41 * popey tests

 13:43 <mihir> renato___: when you get time  can you look at this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-calendar-app/+bug/1362781 when you get time?

 13:43 <renato___> mihir, sure, I am in a meeting right now, I will take a look later

 13:44 <mihir> no issues, thanks renato___  :)

 13:44 <popey> yeah, checked by installing evolution and setting an online accounts account for my company gmail and it seems to only sync my main calendar, no option to sync more.

 13:44 <mihir> popey: so we need change in EDS for multiple calendar support , is that correct?

 13:45 <balloons> mihir, I left https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-calendar-dev/ubuntu-calendar-app/add-tests-for-future-and-past-events/+merge/232150/comments/574923. I hope that makes sense

 13:45 <mihir> balloons: thanks , i'll update trunk and then will try to work on AP

 13:45 <popey> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SyncEvolution/synchronize-multiple-google-calendars-with-evolution-calendars

 13:46 <popey> looks cumbersome and not default.

 13:46 <nik90> hey guys, need your quick opinion on https://imgur.com/4imDDaQ

 13:46 <popey> mihir: longer term yes, but not for right now.

 13:46 <popey> ooh

 13:46 <mihir> nik90: great, but they are calendar color or event color ?

 13:46 <nik90> mihir: calendar color

 13:47 <mihir> nik90: amazing :)

 13:47 <nik90> mihir: that's what the current calendar app also does

 13:47 <mihir> yup :) this looks great :D

 13:47 <popey> evolution does this too

 13:47 <popey> events are black text on light coloured background

 13:47 <kunal> this looks nice, it was also part of one of original design

 13:47 <nik90> Currently the calendar app denotes it with a small circle and default to white bg for events. I removed that small circle and changed the event background instead

 13:48 <popey> http://i.imgur.com/QwVLnvX.png for comparison

 13:48 <nik90> makes it more eventful (pun intended) :)

 13:48 <popey> (also note the dark/light colours for day/night)

 13:48 <mihir> nik90: great :) looks great :)

 13:49 <nik90> popey: Akiva also proposed the light and dark backgrounds in the timeline view based on the time of the day

 13:49 <nik90> but it doesn't apply everywhere though...for instance in summer here in netherlands it is bright until like 19:00

 13:49 <nik90> or even later

 13:49 <mihir> nik90: that was i suppose based on working hours

 13:50 <nik90> mihir: that could work

 13:50 <mihir> like 8-5 will be active and rest will be dull

 13:50 <popey> in google _you_ set your working hours

 13:50 <mihir> that's what most of calendars does

 13:50 <popey> its not assumed to be 8-5

 13:50 <nik90> mihir: perhaps we could explore that, however the colors shouldn't be too distinct since it might take the user's attention away from the events

 13:50 <nik90> s/distinct/strong

 13:50 <mihir> popey: yup we have to make it configurable , i remember kunal  has mentioned this in comment

 13:51 <popey> we don't... we sync from google.

 13:51 <popey> it can be set there.

 13:51 <popey> Settings -> General -> Working hours.

 13:51 <mihir> popey: hmmm ,

 13:51 <nik90> popey: but does google send this over to EDS?

 13:51 <popey> I have mine set to 9-18 which is why evolution uses the colour there

 13:52 <mihir> but in our case we can put setting option in calendar i guess

 13:52 <popey> i dont see how else evolution knows my working hours?

 13:52 <popey> ah, evolution has its own setting

 13:52 <popey> ignore me

 13:52 <popey> so yes, we'd need to set that locally, bum.

 13:52 <popey> calendar v 2.0 i think ㋛

 13:52 <nik90> popey, mihir: we can perhaps add a settings option in the calendar app for this

 13:53 <nik90> but yes 2.0 :)

 13:53 <popey> maybe later, lets stabilise what we have rather than add settings IMO

 13:53 <mihir> popey nik90: exactly :)

 13:53 <popey> This would be a nice feature to add in a future version

 13:53 <nik90> speaking of which, I intend to do a version bump of calendar app..its stuck at 0.3 or something

 13:53 <popey> along with setting working hours, days etc

 13:53 <nik90> yes

 13:53 <popey> \o/ 1.0!

 13:53 <mihir> popey:  okay.

 13:53 <mihir> nik90: lets merge all pending MRs , and put minor changes till the RTM

 13:54 <nik90> btw is this THE Jane Silber -> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-calendar-app/+bug/1370603

 13:54 <popey> bug fix & polish for now, yes.

 13:54 <nik90> +1

 13:54 <popey> that is indeed the boss.

 13:54 <nik90> wow

 13:54 <popey> instant critical bug status ㋛

 13:54 <mihir> ahhh , that's great :D

 13:55 <nik90> hehe

 13:55 <popey> lets try and debug that. events not showing up in the calendar make it less than useful.

 13:55 <nik90> yup

 13:55 <nik90> I am preparing a comment atm

 13:56 <mihir> Great ,

 13:56 <popey> ok. Anything else?

 13:56 <popey> we overran a little ☻

 13:56 <mihir> popey: nope nothing from my side

 13:56 <nik90> nothing much from my end

 13:57 <kunal> not from me as well

 13:57 <popey> Great!

 13:58 <popey> Thanks guys! Looking forward to seeing these updates landing!

 13:58 <popey> have a great weekend.
