06:41 shreya Hello I am a beginner.Can anyone help me in finding bugs to work on/
06:41 paulproteus Hi shreya! Can you tell me something you already know about, and something you want to learn more about?
06:42 Thanks for stopping by!
06:43 shreya paulproteus : I know C and would like to contribute to open source projects and thought should start with working on bitsize bugs.What do you suggest?
06:43 paulproteus Cool that you know C!
06:43 What operating system do you run, typically?
06:45 shreya Windows and Ubuntu both
06:45 paulproteus Windows 7, Ubuntu, Mac OS, etc.
06:45 Oh cool!
06:45 OK great.
06:45 So here are my general tips for getting involved in open source projects.
06:46 Try to find ones that you use, and try to get to know the community by doing things like documentation fixes (be that code docs, like comments, or user-facing documentation, like help manuals) first.
06:46 It's also often a great idea to hang out around with the people in that community on IRC for a little while and just listen and see what they talk about.
06:46 Having said that, if you know C really well and want to dive into something, that's OK too.
06:47 It's just often easier to make a first impression and get to know how people operate by doing something less technical first. That's how I always start out.
06:47 So do you happen to use any software in either of those platforms (Windows, Ubuntu) that's written in C? GNU screen, and GNU nano, come to mind as possibilities for the Ubuntu side; I use both of those and maybe you do, too.
06:47 I don't know if they have bitesize bugs lists, though, but it'd be cool if they do.
06:47 There are also lots and lots of GNOME projects, like gnome-terminal, that have bitesize bugs (or documentation bugs) that they want help with.
06:48 GNOME's entry point for that stuff is https://wiki.gnome.org/GnomeLove
06:49 We have this step by step guide here with a little more info on what getting involved means: http://labs.openhatch.org/foss-contrib-guide/
06:49 http://openhatch.org/search/?q=&language=C is another interface to browse those.
06:49 You can click on "documentation" and find yourself here: http://openhatch.org/search/?q[…]tation&language=C
06:50 shreya paulproteus : Thanks a lot
06:52 paulproteus I found https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=720572 (which is a docs bug in gnome-terminal) and https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=742520 (which is in gnome-control-center) a C coding bug
06:52 I don't know all that much about those two codebases, but GNOME is considered a pretty welcoming project, although if people don't reply, you may have to be patient; they're mostly volunteers.
06:53 shreya Okay
06:53 paulproteus You're always welcome to come here and ask more questions! We may or may not be around but we'd like to be as helpful as we can be!
06:56 shreya Thankyou
07:04 paulproteus Happy to help!

15:55 * shauna is trying to fix the blog css again
15:56 Niharika Hi shauna! When do we plan to have the proposal brainstorming session for OSB?
15:56 I so don't want to miss it.
15:59 shauna Not sure!  We could do a doodle poll on devel@
16:01 Niharika devel@?
16:01 shauna the devel mailing list
16:01 lists.openhatch.org
16:01 Niharika Oh, okay.
16:01 Thanks. :)
16:01 shauna http://lists.openhatch.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
16:08 Does anyone know what "    width: @column-width;" implies?
16:08 I'm going to look up the notation myself, but help is always appreciated.
16:10 Okay, apparently @ means import.
16:10 But import from wheeeeeere?
16:10 I guess the most recent specification of column-width.
16:11 Which is specified as "((@total-width - @padding-between-columns * 2) / 3) - @padding-between-columns;" in base.less.
16:11 Which I guess must be importing from the actual css file.
16:12 heidie joined #openhatch
16:13 shauna But the actual css file doesn't have a @total-width or a padding between columns...
16:13 Oh I see it's specified within base.less!
16:14 If "@total-width: 1000px; @standard-padding: 20px;" then column-width should be 300.
16:16 I see.  In a two column layout, the left side keeps column-width, and the right doubles in size.
16:18 So here's a potentially relevant question.  I only see this when I'm *not* logged in.
16:25 willingc joined #openhatch
16:46 amyrlam joined #openhatch
16:54 shauna :(
16:54 A search for ".column" in oh/oh-mainline returns 500+ results because the . is ignored.
16:54 paulproteus git grep -F '.column'
16:55 Also good morning, I see you asked a question on https://github.com/openhatch/o[…]nline/issues/1512
16:55 FWIW anything you see as "inline" in the browser probably means it came from "less".
16:55 raniere_ joined #openhatch
16:55 paulproteus "less" is not something the browser understands, so "less.js" in the browser converts the styles from less into real honest to goodness CSS in the browser.
16:56 shauna: ^ I can possibly answer other questions but I'm a little behind on understand what you're doing/seeing and a little tired. But I could e.g. screenshare with you for a bit to see what you see.
16:56 I agree with the remark you made on the bug that this is error-prone and difficult and opaque.
16:57 shauna Basically, I'm trying to figure out why there's a width attribute for .column in the incorrect version and not in the correct version.
16:57 Where correct == what I see when logged in, and incorrect == what logged out people see.
16:57 Since the width attribute seems to be the key difference between the two.
16:57 So I'm trying to find all references to ".column" in less/css.
16:58 The first one I checked, two_column.less, just says ".column {
16:58 clear: none;
16:58 }"
16:58 Wait, there it is.
16:58 Guess I don't need any fancy searching.
16:58 Just patience.
16:58 paulproteus mysite/static/less/base/base.less .column  line 301 maybe
16:59 So weird that logged in vs. out would make a difference.
16:59 shauna Added in Nov 18, 2014
16:59 Has our blog been borked for that long?
16:59 paulproteus It doesn't even seem borked to me.
16:59 What's the display bug precisely?
16:59 shauna paulproteus: are you logged in?
16:59 view the blog in a private browser
17:00 window thing
17:00 paulproteus No, viewing in incognito now
17:00 shauna I'll take a screenshot
17:00 paulproteus On skinny screens the sidebar is up at the top, which is a little tragic.
17:00 But that's the worst I see.
17:00 b
17:01 shauna Posted
17:01 I only see this while logged out.  I'm curious what's going on there.
17:02 paulproteus Weird. I can't reproduce that.
17:02 Logged in or out; Firefox or Chromium or Google Chrome.
17:03 Ah hah. Yes in incognito Firefox.
17:03 shauna This is the PR: https://github.com/openhatch/o[…]ainline/pull/1474
17:03 Should I just revert the PR?
17:04 paulproteus I'd rather add some CSS constraints so the rules carefully avoid being relevant to the blog.
17:04 Massive props to you for being able to reproduce this and find the thing that broke it.
17:04 shauna Do we need another undocumented complication for people working on css?
17:05 paulproteus Well let me submit a pull request with what I mean; ETA 10 min.
17:05 shauna Like, why is this so complicated?  How can we fix it?
17:05 Okay.
17:06 wolftune joined #openhatch
17:07 shauna I'm a little sad that I figured it out because I was just about to try git blame, which I've never used before.
17:08 I'll find some other excuse soon.
17:13 paulproteus https://github.com/openhatch/o[…]ainline/pull/1522  - shauna, fwiw, this change doesn't decrease the degree of documentedness, which I believe was a thing you were concerned about in how I might solve it.
17:13 But I might misunderstand what your concern was.
17:13 Feel free to merge + deploy. The blog should visually update once cloudflare caches expire.
17:14 Again massive props to your for finding that.
17:14 afk a bit.
17:15 shauna :)
17:15 It seems like it moves the 32% width declaration to the landing page only, which makes sense.
17:15 * shauna will test and then merge, hopefully
17:16 shauna Wait no can't test.
17:16 Well, can I *guess* through elaborate method.
17:16 Okay!  Almost there!
17:23 Can't get less changes to appear, going to merge anyway and hope for the best.

17:30 Nothing too bad seems to have happened.
17:31 shauna No, I siad no.
17:31 *said
17:31 It's fixed on Chrome but not on Firefox for me.  Maybe a caching issue.
17:32 But I was looking at Firefox first and was confused.
17:32 Sixmsj joined #openhatch
17:32 shauna Yeah, fixed on Firefox.
17:32 Had to open a different private browsing session.

17:44 shauna Wow the spacing on this post is incredibly inconsistent.
17:46 paulproteus -1 to the WordPress WYSIWYG editor
17:46 Not that I know that's related but it usually is.
17:48 shauna Allll I want is padding below an h2
17:48 And above I guess.
17:49 re: WYSIWYG I just copied and pasted from htmlpad
17:49 But I used h2s and h3s which I think are getting overridden in the blog css.
17:51 Changing manually now.

18:50 Niharika: I would like to spend some outside time getting pyvideo.org up to date with the latest master, but have been too busy to work that out
18:50 I've got some ansible code in partial shape to deploy it, but haven't completed things
18:51 Niharika skay: :) If you get time, do apply for a talk at http://opensourcebridge.org/events/2015/proposals It's not a big scary conference. You'd give an awesome talk, I know.
18:52 skay Niharika: thanks :)
18:52 Niharika skay: I gave one last year and loved the experience. Now I'm hunting for topics about which I could possibly speak and people would come and listen. :P
