00:04:45 <clokep_work> aleth: Hey...so... trying to figure out this code: https://dxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/source/chat/modules/socket.jsm#475-497
00:05:07 <clokep_work> What I'm seeing is that I'ms ending data, then getting 'onStartRequest', then 'onStopRequest' with a status of 0 (NS_OK).
00:05:26 <clokep_work> Does that seem "OK"?
00:07:33 <aleth> So you receive no data and the connection closes without error
00:07:47 <clokep_work> Right so does that mean it's closed?
00:07:54 <clokep_work> I don't get any disconnecting messages.
00:08:00 <aleth> That's certainly how it's handled...
00:08:22 <clokep_work> Hah, yeah.
00:09:22 <aleth> Hmm, is it possible that because it's a mobile protocol you have to reconnect all the time?
00:09:36 <clokep_work> No, I don't think so

17:37:23 <freaktechnik> what are prplIMessages with notification = true?
17:38:08 <clokep_work> Notifications, obvs.
17:38:10 <clokep_work> ;)
17:38:19 <clokep_work> I suspect it's a flag from libpurple which we don't render in any special way.
17:39:49 <freaktechnik> it only has rules in regards to logging, else it's treated as system, so I guess it doesn't really matter...
17:41:46 <clokep_work> nhnt11: Do you know?
17:42:12 <nhnt11> I don't, sorry

17:47:00 <arlolra> are there any plans for captcha authorization? https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/18389#comment:12
17:48:59 <arlolra> should probably reuse the work in #955317
17:49:16 <arlolra> bug 955317
17:49:18 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=955317 enh, --, ---, ab, ASSI, Support XEP-0077 In-Band Registration
17:49:23 <arlolra> :)
17:50:45 <clokep_work> arlolra: That work is likely unrelated...
17:51:04 <clokep_work> arlolra: It'd be more like the Twitter oauth request IMO.
17:51:17 <clokep_work> Supporting CAPTCHAs and 2-factor auth are wanted though, yes.
17:51:56 <clokep_work> There's two aspects to it, of course...the UI aspect and the XMPP aspect.
17:51:58 <arlolra> oh, but that code already displays a captcha for registering at jabber.ccc.de
17:52:14 <clokep_work> Oh?
17:52:20 <clokep_work> I haven't looked at that code FWIW.
17:52:22 <clokep_work> aleth:  might have more info.
17:53:00 <arlolra> k
17:53:14 <aleth> arlolra: you're right, that depends on abdelrhman finishing that bug
17:53:27 <arlolra> i guess you haven't had time to look at the twitter dm stuff yet
17:53:29 <aleth> you should ask him for more info
17:54:07 <arlolra> I'll get sukhe on it
17:55:29 <clokep_work> arlolra: I haven't had time to try it, no.
17:55:35 <clokep_work> And you're right that Twitter needs a bit of work. :)
17:55:47 <clokep_work> Unfortunately I'm away this weekend.
17:55:49 <clokep_work> Maybe tonight.
17:56:12 <arlolra> i'm going to fix the participants list, cause people will complain about that
17:56:51 <arlolra> don't stress about it

19:02:21 <clokep_work> Been a crazy couple weeks at work. :(
19:03:15 <arlolra> you should tell me to go finish the libotr patch :)
19:05:40 <arlolra> (which i am)
19:14:30 <clokep_work> arlolra: Go finish that libotr patch! :P
19:14:38 <clokep_work> I'm still not 100% sure what the eway forward with that is.
19:14:42 <clokep_work> Given all the build woes and such.

19:18:59 --> bogdan_maris has joined #instantbird
19:21:59 <arlolra> i think it's jsut as matter of linking against nss now and i'll bug people in #security about that
19:24:03 <clokep_work> :)
19:24:16 <clokep_work> Or possible #build.
19:24:27 <clokep_work> Or you could possible bug jcranmer as well, but he's usually stretched thin.
19:28:02 <arlolra> ok
19:28:28 <arlolra> either way, we'll get it done
19:29:53 <clokep_work> :)
19:38:44 <clokep_work> arlolra: Btw...that patch in bug 955642...I assume the updated twitter-text.js was just pulled down and unmodified (besides the changes such that we can import it in a 'mozilla' way?)
19:38:46 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=955642 enh, --, ---, arlolra, ASSI, Handle Twitter direct messages (DMs)
19:39:05 <arlolra> yeah, exactly
19:39:16 <arlolra> if you want, i can separate that out
19:39:59 <arlolra> does bugzilla like patches produces like hg export -r range:here
19:42:55 <clokep_work> I thikn that will work.
19:43:02 <clokep_work> It might show the same file changed multiple times though.
19:43:14 <clokep_work> arlolra: I think you want |hg diff -r range:here|
19:43:25 <clokep_work> It won't have the diff header, but that only matters for checkin.

20:11:40 <flo-retina> that bug that prevents Instantbird from reconnecting (after too many failed attempts) until I restart it is getting annoying.
20:11:55 <flo-retina> of course I have no good steps to reproduce
20:12:37 <flo-retina> just "leave a dozen accounts attempting to auto-reconnect with the reconnect timers for an hour or so while the ssh tunnel used as a socks proxy is down... and when you fix the ssh tunnel, connections still don't work"
20:20:56 <freaktechnik> which bug?
20:23:45 <clokep_work> freaktechnik: There's no bug on file IIRC.
20:24:17 <freaktechnik>  oh okay, I thought I missed something because of the "that bug"
20:25:31 <clokep_work> Just something flo-retina has complained about before. ;)

21:55:43 <Mic> Hi!
21:55:51 <Mic> So how have you been doing, guys? It's been a long time...
21:56:05 <Mic> (I'm just here for a short visit, though)
21:58:03 <clokep_work> Mic: HELLO!
21:58:06 <clokep_work> How are you?
21:58:13 <clokep_work> We're doing OK! Stuck trying to release like always.
21:58:16 <Mic> Fine, thanks - how are you?
21:58:23 <clokep_work> Surviving. :)
21:58:35 <Mic> That sounds familiar - releasing is really a pain though
21:58:51 <clokep_work> Yeah...especially with the pace Mozilla changes their infra now.
21:59:09 <nhnt11> Mic: Long time!
21:59:51 <Mic> Just had the whim to check the instantbird log server after getting some emails on the contact or team group-mail list. So I saw that there was activity today :)
22:00:21 <nhnt11> Glad you decided to drop in! :)
22:00:44 <Mic> (You might want to revoke any permissions of my accounts btw. Not sure if I'm getting internal stuff that I don't need to know about anymore.)
22:01:41 <clokep_work> I don't think we usually send any security related things. ;)
22:01:46 <clokep_work> But we'll keep that in mind. :)
22:01:48 <Mic> Stuff like my old AIO reviewer account might even be interesting from a security point of view. 
22:02:29 <clokep_work> True. :) I'm not even sure of the state of some of that infrastructure, honestly. :(
22:02:43 <clokep_work> We've been migrating as much to Mozilla stuff as possible (Bugzilla, Wiki, etc.)
22:02:45 <Mic> Not that I'm planning to misuse anything but it might be a good idea to get a policy on that (leaving people).
22:02:55 <clokep_work> Right. :)
22:03:15 <Mic> So, are you making progress with the messenger?
22:03:23 <Mic> What's the latest and greatest at the moment?
22:04:04 <nhnt11> Mic: clokep_work is working on replacing the Facebook XMPP prpl with a shiny new JS implementation of their "new" protocol 
22:05:03 <Mic> Not surprising that they are still/again a problem ;)
22:05:59 <clokep_work> Google Talk is slowly breaking too. :(
22:06:35 <clokep_work> Besides that...we've made a lot of progress on JS-XMPP.
22:06:45 <clokep_work> Played with WebRTC a bunch over it, although that never landed.
22:06:58 <clokep_work> The Tor guys are using Instantbird for Tor Messenger and added OTR support (yet to be upstreamed)
22:07:25 <nhnt11> aaaaand I implemented indexed logs 
22:07:30 <nhnt11> but that never landed :(
22:07:40 <nhnt11> s/never landed/hasn't landed yet/ ;)
22:07:45 <Mic> I've read about the Tor Messenger on Ars Technica a few month ago. I found it awesome that you (rather: they?) got that coverage
22:08:22 <clokep_work> We worked a bit with them. :) They've fixed a variety of bugs in Instantbird, actually.
22:09:06 <clokep_work> OTR support works, but is a bit rough.
22:09:10 <clokep_work> The UX isn't quite there.
22:09:14 <Mic> Wait... I just googled that. That was 2 years ago already!
22:09:25 <Mic> Time flies
22:09:30 <clokep_work> Yes, it does! :(
22:09:56 <Mic> Ah, brb ("flies" just reminded me that I wanted to check the weather forecast for the Space Coast)
22:10:59 <Mic> Not too bad, let's hope they don't scrub the SpaceX launch again. I'm really curious if they stick the barge-landing this time :)
22:11:39 <clokep_work> Yeah, that's been neat to watch. :)
22:11:42 <clokep_work> I like the time lapse photos.
22:12:36 <clokep_work> You've been doing OK? Anything exciting?
22:14:19 <Mic> I'm working with students still. Nothing too exciting recently (except a nice idea for a sort of social network (that actually does not exist yet in that form), so I'm working at creating a mvp)
22:14:33 <-- Bollebib has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
22:14:53 <Mic> Since there are just the two options of growing big or fizzling out - I suspect it will be the latter ;)
22:16:04 <clokep_work> Most ideas seem to end up taht way. :(
22:16:14 <clokep_work> Well if you end up having chata in it...please oh please don't make a custom protocol. ;)
22:17:10 <Mic> Yes, indeed. I was surprised how the idea of it got me hooked, so I got this "I need to try this"-feeling :D
22:18:35 <Mic> hehe, I'll keep that in mind.
22:19:01 <Mic> Not a custom protocol - one that can replace all others! n+1 competing standards and stuff :P
22:19:45 <clokep_work> :-D
22:19:54 <Mic> Same old jokes ;)
22:20:17 <Mic> How are flo and aleth doing?
22:21:57 <flo-retina> Mic: ! \o/
