 15:02 <popey> #startmeeting Calculator meeting

 15:02 <meetingology> Meeting started Thu Jul  9 15:02:59 2015 UTC.  The chair is popey. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology.

 15:02 <meetingology> 

 15:02 <meetingology> Available commands: action commands idea info link nick

 15:03 <popey> How you doing guys?

 15:03 <rpadovani> good but busy, as usual :S

 15:03 <gang66> Great as usual :-)

 15:03 <popey> \o/

 15:04 <popey> So you may have seen I uploaded the calculator with the new icon

 15:04 <gang66> yes

 15:04 <rpadovani> yap :-)

 15:04 <gang66> Is it only icons ?

 15:04 <popey> So we will need to poke JMulholland about the outstanding design issue you raised

 15:04 <popey> only an icon update for that one

 15:04 <JMulholland> o/

 15:04 <popey> I grabbed the same bzr revno that was already in the store

 15:04 <popey> this meant I could bypass QA

 15:04 <popey> because it had already been done.

 15:05 <popey> JMulholland: do you recall we talked about the inconsistency in colours?

 15:05 <popey> now the new icon is in

 15:05 <gang66> But we need to wait for some new General Design

 15:05 <JMulholland> I think I recall, could you remind me of the specifics of the inconsistency?

 15:06 <gang66> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-calculator-app/+bug/1465241

 15:06 <gang66> It's only about colors

 15:06 <popey> well, as gang66 says, there's a more general "we need to finish off the design work"

 15:06 <popey> that bug is, as gang66 says, just a colour consistency concern

 15:08 <gang66> Is it will be revolutionary changes in Calculator?

 15:08 <JMulholland> So is the inconsistency the design of the app itself vs. the redesigned calc icon?

 15:09 <gang66> Will it be ...

 15:09 <JMulholland> I know we dicussed the fact the calc app had evolved beyond the old spec, and it would be nice to bring giorgios old spec inline with the latest…

 15:10 <gang66> It is a little more complicated...

 15:10 <gang66> The Giorgios spec also evolved in time

 15:11 <gang66> So Favourites evolved to Captions and later to Labels

 15:12 <popey> heh

 15:12 <gang66> And that remind me the old Calculator implementation (before reboot)

 15:13 <gang66> So in the first Calculator implementation we have Labels

 15:13 <gang66> Then in Reboot calculator it was evloved to Favourites

 15:14 <gang66> And after a while it was a Caption

 15:15 <gang66> And at the end we need to convert it to labels

 15:16 <JMulholland> right

 15:16 <popey> I think as we have it now, we have some stability.

 15:16 <popey> Not many bugs coming in,

 15:17 <popey> So not a huge amount to do on the existing code base

 15:17 <popey> right?

 15:17 <gang66> Sorry. it was Tags instead of Caption:

 15:17 <gang66> https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1EiIELGizPHrd0TY7JdNwULbiqPYfOyEEI5CS87n7QlY/edit#slide=id.g7b6f8ee55_01

 15:17 <gang66> But popey said that labels is better name

 15:17 <gang66> And we agreed on it

 15:17 <JMulholland> I’ll see if I can get some time to overhaul the spec in general terms, but the rule we’re often given is ‘the most up to date implementation *is* the reference’ (agile style). I can understand the point, who does updated design material help if the application is already built? :)

 15:18 <gang66> So current doc i really out od date

 15:18 <JMulholland> I understand, I’ll see what I can do

 15:18 <gang66> Thanks

 15:19 <gang66> My idea is to get current implementation as starting point

 15:19 <gang66> And improve it with iterations

 15:20 <gang66> In Agile way

 15:20 <gang66> We implement feature and get feedback

 15:20 <JMulholland> on the bug mentioned previously, regarding the colours used in the app

 15:21 <JMulholland> are we talking about aligning the colours used in the app itself with the green/blue icon visual design made?

 15:22 <gang66> yes

 15:22 <gang66> It is only align colors of application to new icon

 15:23 <JMulholland> if so I’ll consult with visual design, but I think the idea with system/core apps (including calculator) is not to have them look like their icons

 15:23 <gang66> Instead of Orange, use grenn/blue one

 15:23 <JMulholland> but instead for them all to have a single consistant style across all the apps

 15:23 <popey> ok

 15:23 <JMulholland> but I’ll bring it up with visual design again

 15:24 <gang66> Is Calculator visual is  consistent across all other apps

 15:24 <gang66> ?

 15:25 <JMulholland> Calculator is one of our apps that looks a lot like the new more minimal style, yes. I suspect calculator and clock influenced the new style for everything else a lot

 15:26 <JMulholland> :)

 15:26 <JMulholland> I’ll ask if we can get a visual designer to take a loot and give recommmendation (and colour values) for the calc app

 15:26 <JMulholland> *take a look

 15:27 <gang66> Great. Thanks

 15:27 <rpadovani> thanks :-)

 15:28 <gang66> One more question out of scope: When is Clock meeting ?

 15:28 <gang66> :-)

 15:28 <popey> we haven't had one for a while

 15:28 <popey> so you get to choose :)

 15:29 <popey> it used to be an hour from now, 16:30 UTC

 15:30 <popey> Any other calculator related things?

 15:30 <gang66> Not from my side

 15:31 <rpadovani> nope

 15:31 <popey> gang66: I'd recommend we create a blueprint (I can do that if you wish) to track these individual updates to the calculator app

 15:32 <popey> we can than plan out when we want to land them so design have some idea and can plan their testing / feedback.

 15:32 <gang66> Please do so

 15:32 <popey> ok, will do

 15:32 <gang66> I have no experience with blueprints

 15:32 <popey> no worries

 15:33 <popey> Ok, lets wrap. thanks chaps

 15:33 <JMulholland> cheers!

 15:33 <gang66> Bye

 15:34 <JMulholland> see you gang66

 15:34 <JMulholland> :)

 15:34 <popey> #endmeeting
