20:08:12 <Mic> https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=346#c7 -> http://tinyurl.com/does-not-suffice ? ;)
20:08:15 <instantbot> Bug 346 enh, --, ---, nobody, NEW, Buddy list always on top
20:09:27 <Mic> Keeping windows on top isn't common on Windows (some IM programs support that iirc?)
20:10:59 <Mic> I don't remember many complaints that we don't support it out of the box either, so I wouldn't mind if we say that it is add-on fodder
20:13:17 <Mic> Speaking of add-ons: http://twitter.com/BurtHenry/status/219316676716531712 ;)
20:14:17 <-- Tomek has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.1)
20:14:36 <aleth> Haha, I hope he is writing some ;)
20:15:44 <Mic> I wouldn't bet on it :(
20:15:54 <aleth> yeah...
20:16:47 <aleth> Btw you might want to move your smile add-on out of the experimental box for 1.2 :) I suspect it would be popular...
20:17:55 <Mic> Yes, I've got a review comment there that actually reports a bug (shame on them;) and wanted to fix that and something other the next few days.
20:18:31 <aleth> I noticed that statusbar text is half-hidden when that add-on is running... some CSS issue I guess
20:19:32 <Mic> I haven't seen this on Windows btw and might need help debugging that on Linux.
20:19:51 <Mic> The bottom is cut off if I remember correctly?
20:20:55 <aleth> https://minus.com/mnBYQlMJR/
20:21:09 <aleth> What's funny is that sometimes it's the top half, sometimes the bottom half...
20:21:35 <Mic> That's strange...
20:21:57 <aleth> When I hover over a link it's the top half
20:22:30 <aleth> (that is visible)\
20:23:07 <aleth> I think the "bottom half is visible" occurs when the statusbar is reset to blank.
20:23:39 <aleth> In some circumstances it then seems to display everything just before removing the top.
20:24:06 <Mic> ./j got removed already?
20:24:13 <aleth> yes
20:24:30 <Mic> I always used that to join channels :(
20:24:56 <aleth> Another nice enhancement would be to dynamically grab the ":)" smiley for the status bar from the current emoticon set (rather than keeping it fixed)
20:25:36 <aleth> We should fix bug 1439...
20:25:39 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1439 nor, --, ---, nobody, NEW, Make unambiguous command prefixes work as command aliases
20:25:44 <Mic> On Windows the height of this icon is wrong too (to tall -> blurred image)
20:26:15 <aleth> Hmm.. fixing that might fix the Linux thing too
20:26:42 <aleth> (if the text is pushed down a bit by the too tall icon)
20:27:30 <Mic> The icon looks right on your screenshot by the way.
20:27:45 <aleth> I think I tweaked it manually though.
20:28:07 <Mic> :o
20:28:11 <aleth> It wasn't obvious to me \how to fix the underlying problem though
20:28:30 <aleth> but I only spent five minutes on it...
20:28:51 <Mic> One does not simply tweak my add-ons ;)
20:29:35 <Mic> Well, bbl

21:27:22 <FeuerFliege> aleth: I have the right mail address but google refused to accept it. I recently changed my email addresses including the one for the google account, maybe that caused the problem. But finally I could create a new topic in the google group which has the same effect.

21:29:15 <FeuerFliege> And over the weekend I had problems with my internet, so that I had to use the crappy mobile as access point. That’s why I just send the email when I got the chance without coordinating the text first. 
21:29:55 <aleth> Glad it worked :)

21:31:37 <FeuerFliege> let me know if I missed or missunderstood something …
21:33:37 <aleth> I don't know anything about the l10n infrastructure, but hopefully flo or clokep will see it
21:34:01 <aleth> The main thing is they know the strings are frozen, so they can get started :)
21:35:09 <Mic> Why was this command killed in a patch for an (seemingly) unrelated bug? Shouldn't it have gotten its own bug?
21:37:29 <aleth> You'll have to ask the reviewer... I think it was because I had added a joinCommand function that was only necessary because both /j and /join exist, so it was opportunistic to avoid that.
21:38:00 <Mic> Maybe reading the bug from start to end would help too ;)
21:38:44 <aleth> Anyway, it was the right thing to do, just maybe not before fixing that auto-alias bug
21:39:07 <aleth> Sorry for the unwelcome surprise
21:40:01 <Mic> I'm fine with that... I'll get used to pressing tab instead of space after /j ;)
21:40:15 <aleth> That works...
21:40:27 <aleth> We killed /whowas and /wallops too.
21:41:44 <Mic> No, I was really just surprised when I looked up the topic of the bug and found it unrelated

22:35:19 <clokep> Nice email FeuerFliege :)
22:35:23 <clokep> I think it hit all the main points.
22:35:56 <clokep> Mic: We had discussed getting rid of /j a few times before and no one seemed to care, as aleth said...instead of adding a complicate function that gets called twice, I think it made more sense to inline it and get rid of the alias.
