Consider trying to find a sound theme that fits, and also has the correct sound events included. 21:46:24 <flo> I may be convinced to accept a patch adding an hidden pref per event generating a sound to disable/enable them individually from the advanced config editor. 21:47:00 <v17al> Might I add I'm just throwing out ideas, definitely not barking out what should be done 21:47:11 <flo> v17al: I don't think users trying to decide which event causes which sound are regular users. If you take your example, you seem to be more of a developer ;). 21:47:35 <v17al> :P 21:48:09 <flo> v17al: yeah, it's totally fine (and welcomed!) to share ideas :). I'm just trying to avoid you some future disappointment ;). 21:48:13 <v17al> Can I paste images anywhere? 21:48:26 <clokep> For upload? I usually use imgur 21:48:27 <v17al> Definitely flo, I just thought I was coming off rude there :) 21:48:42 <v17al> One sec, I want to show an example of what I mean 21:50:18 <flo> what was the website to try directly some HTML code pasted in a textbox? 21:50:33 <v17al> pastebin 21:50:52 <flo> s/pasted/typed/ 21:50:57 <clokep> flo: http://htmledit.squarefree.com/ is the one I like. 21:51:03 <flo> clokep: thanks! :) 21:51:13 <v17al> oh cool 21:51:31 <v17al> my bad i thought you were continuing our chat for some reason :S 21:52:01 <v17al> flo: Here's kinda what I mean, I have taken a screen grab from pidgin and Live Messenger 21:52:02 <v17al> http://imgur.com/gwCJW 21:52:47 <clokep> I think the question is whether it's a common user action to disable certain sounds or not. 21:53:02 <flo> v17al: in both cases, that's the UI to change sounds 21:53:22 <clokep> If it's uncommon it's "bad" to add UI and an extension could. 21:53:51 <v17al> I believe that this feature is found in most messaging clients 21:54:00 <v17al> I suppose I should ask, what is the purpose of instantbird 21:54:26 <flo> what's that "Sounds when conversation has focus" option about? 21:54:32 <v17al> Is it for a really simple messaging client, because I know that it is supposed to be an alternative to the big guys 21:55:21 <v17al> flo: I think that's so the incoming/outgoing type sounds only trigger when the chat window is currently highlighted 21:55:39 <flo> v17al: by default it should do what most people want without requiring customization. With add-ons, it customization possibilities should be limited only by add-on authors' imagination. 21:56:55 <flo> v17al: and "found in most instant messagers" (like blinking ads for instance) doesn't imply we should copy it :). 21:57:10 <v17al> Definitely! 21:58:00 <v17al> However I have used many other such as aMSN, Adium, ICQ, Skype, and a couple others and they all have these kinds of customizations 21:58:11 <flo> so if you feel you need to change something to the default configuration, the bug (from my point of view) is that the default sound behavior is not right, not that you can't fine tune it ;) 21:58:42 <clokep> (Or it could be done in an add-on also.) 21:58:49 <clokep> Fairly easily, I might add. 21:58:53 <v17al> Here's the bug I found it from, https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=948 21:58:56 <instantbot> Bug 948 nor, --, ---, nobody, NEW, Finer control over sound notifications (i.e. receiving chat ping vs. instant message) 21:59:49 <flo> that bug doesn't imply we are willing to add several checkboxes though 21:59:58 <flo> as I said, if you want to add hidden prefs, I may accept that :) 22:00:37 <flo> and yes, it would be easy to do an add-on for this. 22:00:56 <v17al> Yeah 22:01:12 <v17al> Easier to comment a few lines in the ibSounds.jsm :P 22:01:33 <flo> not really no 22:01:46 <flo> as your changes there would be lost after each update 22:02:12 <v17al> I suppose :) 22:02:24 <flo> and if you just want to get rid of a specific sound for your personal use, you can take the extremely trivial example of the noblistsounds add-on 22:02:34 <flo> it basically replaces some .wav files with empty files ;) 22:02:46 <v17al> Haha yeah I stumbled upon that one 22:03:01 <flo> v17al: I've just looked at the Skype sound customization UI. It's awful :-D. 22:03:09 <v17al> Oh man it's bad 22:03:16 <v17al> I just saw it too :) 22:03:19 <v17al> Wayyy too much 22:03:50 <v17al> But I think Pidgin has it nice, minus a few oddones ("Someone says your username in chat") 22:04:06 <flo> how is that odd? 22:04:23 <v17al> I figured you call me out there :), I just haven't seen that one before 22:04:24 <flo> it seems to be the most useful sound to me ;) 22:04:52 <flo> "Attention received" is... uh... 22:05:03 <v17al> :) 22:05:14 <flo> I suspect it's the opposed of what it means 22:05:58 <v17al> Yeah, not too apparent for the user to discern 22:06:55 <v17al> Another nice customization pidgin has is the "Enable sounds: (When Available | When Unavailable | Always)" 22:07:44 <flo> the Adium UI is super hard to figure out for me, but it may be due to poor french translations 22:08:02 <v17al> Yeah could be 22:08:19 <v17al> Damn us French people :P 22:08:25 <-- vicnet has quit (Ping timeout) 22:08:50 --> vicnet has joined #instantbird 22:09:05 <flo> you are french? 22:09:36 <flo> the Adium UI for sound notifications may be the closer to what I would like. 22:09:40 <clokep> v17al: We actually filed a bug on that and I plan to make an extension for it...eventually. bug 470 I think. 22:09:42 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=470 enh, --, ---, nobody, NEW, Quiet mode 22:09:47 <v17al> Bilingual; father is French mother is English 22:09:57 <flo> v17al: you are lucky! 22:10:17 <flo> learning English later is harder 22:10:24 <v17al> Thanks, unfortunately it is Acadian French, so not 100% useful in real world 22:11:31 <flo> clokep: isn't that bug a dup of bug 1000? 22:11:34 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1000 enh, --, ---, nobody, NEW, Minimize user interruptions 22:12:12 <clokep> flo: Oops, I meant bug 470. 22:12:14 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=470 enh, --, ---, nobody, NEW, Quiet mode 22:12:24 <clokep> Arg, yeah I had it right. 22:12:25 <flo> same bug number 22:12:42 <v17al> So what are the current plans for 1.1? 22:12:50 <clokep> It's similar, has some other ideas in it that we'd probably want to spin off before duping it though. 22:12:54 <v17al> I guess I shouldn't touch the sound configs yet 22:12:54 <flo> v17al: release it :) 22:13:45 <flo> clokep: "taskbar flashes" I think the interruption manager currently doesn't handle that :-/ 22:13:48 <v17al> Is it pretty close, I know it's only pre alpha but I haven't seen any problems yet in half week's usage 22:14:08 <flo> the "add buddy requests" also still suck 22:14:35 <flo> v17al: it's done. We are just waiting on some translations. (and there'll still be a bug fix or two) 22:15:17 <flo> pre alpha doesn't mean much these days, as with "rapid release cycles" we are no longer releasing alpha/betas before the final 22:15:24 <flo> (although we never announced that :-() 22:15:28 <v17al> lol 22:15:36 --> hicham has joined #instantbird 22:15:46 <v17al> How big is the dev team? 22:15:56 <flo> count the participants here :) 22:16:03 <v17al> lol 22:17:02 <v17al> Is there any active tasks which would be good to tackle, or are things going slow with the pending release? 22:17:12 <-- hicham has quit (Quit: اÙسÙا٠عÙÙÙÙ ) 22:17:31 <clokep> flo: Yes, I guess the only other non-dup part of it would be actually making some extensions for the use cases. 22:17:38 <flo> yes 22:17:47 <flo> I just re-read it fully too :) 22:18:41 <v17al> So from what I gather you are currently aiming at keeping things really simple, and making extensions for anything larger? 22:19:41 <flo> if by "larger" you meant "with complicated looking UI" then yes 22:21:03 <flo> v17al: extensions are also a very good way to experiment with features we may want to include by default later 22:21:05 <v17al> Well at this stage it could also constitute larger tasks that instant messaging, such as video or file sharing as well, not just the UI stuff 22:21:24 <flo> that will be supported by default eventually. 22:21:50 <v17al> Yup, it is definitely a great idea to be very hesitant on UI change 22:21:53 <v17al> changes* 22:22:33 <v17al> Especially this early you wouldn't want to be putting in features and stripping them later. Best to keep focus on putting in what's needed. 22:22:57 <flo> v17al: I believe if we can't make a decision on something, asking the user to make the decision himself is not giving him freedom but an additional burden. 22:23:13 <v17al> Definitely! 22:23:45 <v17al> I'm not too experienced with open source projects yet, all I've seen were projects which I was given the details of what was needed. 22:25:11 * clokep is confused by the second half of that statement. 22:25:26 <v17al> I'm an idiot one sec.. 22:26:09 <v17al> V17al not used to projects without requirements documents 22:26:50 <v17al> Therefore not really used to how decisions are made on what is going to be done next 22:28:10 <v17al> Anyway I guess my big question is; is there anything I could get busy with on this project as it currently stands? 22:28:58 <v17al> I suppose I could start making an extension for the sounds customizations :) 22:29:09 <flo> it's super hard to answer such a question without knowing what you know how how to do, and what you *enjoy* doing. 22:31:11 <v17al> As things stand currently I am free for the next couple of weeks while signing contract/offers with my potential employer. I have spent the last few days looking at projects to contribute to since I've been really bored as I just completed my University degree last week, and am tired of playing video games already. 22:32:08 <v17al> I stumbled upon Instantbird and it seemed really interesting, and I would be up for almost any type of programming work right now :) 22:34:01 <flo> the first thing to do would probably be to scratch your own itches: fix things that annoy you (either as patches if we agree they should be changed or with (even hackish) add-ons). 22:34:13 <flo> make it an application you love using everyday 22:34:42 <v17al> Ok, my itch was definitely the sound thing; I think I'll look into an add-on for it 22:34:53 <v17al> Thanks a lot for the wonderful discussion! 22:35:05 <flo> also, feel free to stay around here 22:35:14 <flo> (come with Instantbird? ;)) 22:36:12 <v17al> Good idea, I didn't realize it had the irc capabilities which is hilarious because I looked into an IRC client lol 22:36:30 <flo> also, if you sometimes think things like "I would really like if Instantbird could ...", these are things that are worth thinking more about/debating 22:36:37 <v17al> Also this would make sense where the play sound on username feature would be ideal 22:36:55 <v17al> Thanks a lot flo, I definitely will! 22:36:58 <flo> sure, that feature is for IRC of course 22:38:13 <clokep> Ciao! :) 22:38:16 <-- clokep has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.1a1pre) 22:41:28 --> v17al1 has joined #instantbird 22:41:41 <-- v17al has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client) 22:41:47 <-- v17al1 has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.1a1pre) 22:41:51 --> v17al has joined #instantbird 22:46:17 <-- aleth has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.1a1pre) 23:21:20 <flo> so, we have 7 locales ready, 6 that need work, and 6 that have never reached completion. 23:22:46 <flo> + one that causes https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672029 and that I had to exclude from my status-check script :( 23:22:59 <flo> (this one is pt-PT, we have never shipped it) 23:56:59 <ironhead> is 1.1 getting close? 23:57:43 <ironhead> I've really been enjoying 1.0, so I'm sure 1.1 will be even better ;)
