12:04 <popey> Hows it going?
12:04 <popey> I saw you'd made some progress on the performance bug?
12:04 <JoeyChan> yep  :)
12:05 <JoeyChan> lp:~qqworini/ubuntu-rssreader-app/fix-bug1329648-performance-issue
12:05 <JoeyChan> u can test it now
12:05 <popey> I am testing it now ☻
12:05 <popey> i have it on the device
12:06 <popey> but I can't use the performance overlay, it's broken for me
12:06 <JoeyChan> cool
12:06 <JoeyChan> oh
12:06 <JoeyChan> same here
12:06 <popey> that should be fixed soon.
12:06 <JoeyChan> I use the qml item to use the overlay
12:06 <popey> https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1328535
12:06 <popey> ah
12:07 <JoeyChan> u can add it to source code
12:07 <popey> how do you enable that?
12:07 <JoeyChan> wait one
12:07 <JoeyChan> import Ubuntu.PerformanceMetrics 0.1
12:07 <popey> OK
12:07 <JoeyChan> PerformanceOverlay {
12:07 <JoeyChan> z: 191
12:07 <JoeyChan> }
12:08 <JoeyChan> hard code overlay
12:08 <popey> ok, will try that now]
12:08 <JoeyChan> add that to mainview
12:09 <popey> ok, adding to device...
12:10 <popey> lots of green ☻
12:10 <JoeyChan> haha
12:10 <popey> Nice one!
12:11 <JoeyChan> one of my friends who work for qt project
12:11 <JoeyChan> he told me some about the render engine
12:11 <popey> oh?
12:11 <JoeyChan> set item's visible to false
12:11 <JoeyChan> so the render engine wont render it
12:12 <popey> right, that makes sense
12:12 <JoeyChan> yep  :D
12:12 <JoeyChan> without change any designs
12:12 <JoeyChan> perfect workaround
12:12 <popey> works fine here
12:12 <popey> yeah
12:12 <popey> lets get it merged ☻
12:13 <JoeyChan> yeah
12:13 <JoeyChan> another good news
12:13 <JoeyChan> u may saw my email
12:13 <JoeyChan> sent yesterday

12:14 <popey> Excellent.
12:14 <JoeyChan> Is it ok to bring her in ?
12:14 <popey> Sure! Have you seen some of their work already?
12:15 <JoeyChan> wait one
12:15 <popey> Would be good for them to see some of the other design work that's been going on. Especially the new clock and reminders designs.

12:21 <popey> It would be good if she could come to one of our meetings. I'll drop her a mail to say "hi"
12:21 <popey> and pass some useful links ☻
12:21 <JoeyChan> cool
12:22 <popey> So once you get that performance fix landed, I'll update the store.

12:24 <popey> Great!
12:24 <popey> Thanks JoeyChan !
12:24 <JoeyChan> Roman and I will continue working on the opml support
12:25 <JoeyChan> from next week
12:25 <popey> Ok. Great.
12:25 <popey> Anything you need from me?
12:25 <JoeyChan> so far so good
12:25 <JoeyChan> :)
12:25 <JoeyChan> ah wait
12:26 <JoeyChan> an off-topic question  :P
12:26 <popey> Sure
12:26 <JoeyChan> Does the T-shirt being delivering ?  :P
12:27 <popey> Oh, yes ☻
12:27 <popey> The pioneers ones?
12:27 <JoeyChan> yes!
12:27 <popey> I am not sure when they're being sent
12:27 <popey> Will ask
12:28 <JoeyChan> can't wait  :D
12:28 <popey> hehe
12:28 <popey> msm is afk right now. will let you know when she's back
12:28 <JoeyChan> final question here
12:29 <JoeyChan> is the download available in content-hub ?
12:29 <JoeyChan> download manager
12:29 <popey> How do you mean?
12:30 <popey> I dont understand the question
12:30 <JoeyChan> I found the content-hub will be triggered after download finish
12:30 <JoeyChan> ask what app to choose
12:30 <JoeyChan> to open the downloaded file
12:31 <JoeyChan> that means,  is it possible to register Shorts to content-hub, then act like what I said
12:32 <popey> Ah okay
12:32 <JoeyChan> download an opml file, triggered content-hub, choose Shorts
12:33 <popey> hey Elleo
12:33 <Elleo> hi :)
12:33 <popey> so for context we're talking about the rss reader app (shorts)
12:34 <popey> and JoeyChan (the developer) is asking about using download manager / content hub to pull in an opml file full of subscriptions
12:34 <popey> I thought you might be someone knowledgeable about these things ☻
12:35 <popey> use case is that a user downloads an opml file from a website (for example) and we want to get that into shorts somehow.
12:35 <JoeyChan> I think it is an "export" for content-hub, but not sure
12:36 <Elleo> yeah, once we have mimetype based content types in content-hub, you could just register an content-hub import handler for that opml files, then anything that can export them (e.g. the browser from a download) can send them to your app
12:36 <Elleo> (and once the browser can download arbitrary files)
12:36 <Elleo> at the moment the content types that content-hub recognises are really broad categories
12:36 <Elleo> like "Documents" or "Videos"
12:37 <JoeyChan> I update my phone to r79  today, so .. ?
12:37 <JoeyChan> can I use this version to test ?
12:37 <popey> Elleo: do you have an ETA for this work?
12:37 <Elleo> which aren't very useful when your app only wants to handle a specific file type (like opml)
12:38 <Elleo> kenvandine: was the mimetype stuff pushed until after RTM?
12:38 <Elleo> I have a feeling it might have been
12:40 <JoeyChan> I hope so  :)
12:40 <Elleo> you could potentially write an import handler for the Documents content type to test with while waiting, I'm not sure I'd recommend releasing something that uses such a broad category while only supporting one file type though
12:41 <JoeyChan> ok I understand
12:41 <Elleo> (and when we have general download support in the browser I could give you a version of the browser that treats opml as a Document for testing)
12:41 <Elleo> at the moment the browser only downloads images, we're just waiting on some changes in oxide before we can add support for any file types
12:42 <JoeyChan> oh, no need to be so hurry, we just start the opml thing
12:43 <Elleo> okay, well the amount of work you'll need to do to interface with content hub should be pretty minimal
12:43 <JoeyChan> we will first get the opml support inside the app
12:43 <Elleo> as in about a dozen lines of QML + a few packaging changes
12:43 <Elleo> and then you can let the browser do all the work of interfacing with download manager when actually downloading
12:43 <JoeyChan> cool   :)
12:44 <Elleo> and I'd be happy to give you a hand with any of the content-hub stuff
12:44 <Elleo> which reminds me we really need to write a little tutorial about creating content hub handlers
12:45 <JoeyChan> Thanks Elleo for your answer, I think it is enough so far  :)
12:45 <popey> thanks Elleo
12:45 <Elleo> so I might try and do that and see if you can implement it based on that as a test of the docs :)
12:45 <Elleo> no problem :)
12:46 <popey> JoeyChan: your t-shirt should ship today ☻
12:46 <popey> if not, early next week
12:46 <JoeyChan> Oh good to hear this   lol
12:47 <popey> Ok, anything else to discuss?
12:48 <JoeyChan> no, so far so good   :)
12:48 <popey> Great. Well have a great weekend. Thanks again ☻
12:48 <JoeyChan> u 2  :)
