And it could have some kind of border-top to offset it? One could try centering the text in the space to "offset" it even more, but I am not sure if that would be an improvement, needs experimentation... 09:24:41 <aleth> Otherwise it looks like it's going to be ready soon :) 09:24:43 <Mic> aleth: I was rather thinking of using a placeholder icon, a "Other protocols" caption and something like "My protocol is not listed here, please show me others" as description. 09:26:23 <aleth> I'm not sure, if you give it an icon it'll look like a protocol visually. 09:26:46 <Mic> It won't;) 09:27:18 <aleth> But that's all experimentation - I just think it needs separating from the others somehow, and it will look better if it's the same size overall. 09:28:46 <aleth> I'm generally not a big fan of icons-for-everything, they often carry no information and are just there because someone had a table entry to fill. 09:36:10 <-- micahg has quit (Quit: Ex-Chat) 10:10:06 <Mic> aleth: like this: http://imgur.com/6oy58 10:16:47 --> FeuerFli1 has joined #instantbird 11:22:38 <flo> shouldn't the icon look like a "+" or something conveying the meaning of "more"? 11:22:44 <flo> I'm not sure we really need an icon 11:23:09 <flo> I don't think aleth's suggestion of centering would help. Keeping things aligned is good. 11:23:16 <flo> I agree that it needs to have the same height as the other items 11:32:15 --> Mic1 has joined #instantbird 11:33:29 <-- Mic has quit (Ping timeout) 11:35:01 <Mic1> A plus could be good, too 12:49:55 <-- Mic1 has quit (Ping timeout) 12:56:39 <aleth> Mic: I'm not sure about the icon either, though the + idea is interesting. I still think a subtle dotted top border would be good for that item. 12:57:55 <aleth> I tend to agree with wnayes that "Show all protocols" is more concise, but maybe one should ask some users... 12:58:00 --> Mic1 has joined #instantbird 12:58:31 <aleth> ...though that is not easy to do ;) 13:00:46 * Mic1 is now known as Mic 13:03:13 --> clokep has joined #instantbird 13:03:13 * ChanServ sets mode +o clokep 13:04:14 <clokep> Looks nice. :) I think a border might loook good to separate it, but it could also look out of place. I'd need to see it. 13:04:51 <clokep> And the IRC discussions aren't that interesting...mostly half rants about a stupid protocol. ;) 13:21:14 <Mic> No icon, with a dashed top border instead: http://imgur.com/W5GQF 13:21:28 <-- FeuerFli1 has quit (Quit: Instantbird -- http://www.instantbird.com) 13:23:38 <flo> another idea (but I don't think it would look good) is to alternate the background colors, like in the account manager 13:23:56 <aleth> Nice :) The padding between the two lines of text in each item seems a bit big? 13:25:08 <flo> aleth: right. That seems Windows specific. 13:25:50 --> FeuerFliege has joined #instantbird 13:27:36 <aleth> Mic: http://www.iconfinder.com/search/?q=expand may help if you want to try + icons ;) 13:27:58 <Mic> I made one myself and it didn't look good. 13:28:18 <aleth> or indeed http://www.iconfinder.com/search/?q=plus ... 13:28:47 <aleth> Actually come to think of it there may be one among the standard mozilla icons? 13:29:39 <aleth> But if it doesn't look good, forget it :) 13:30:00 <Mic> aleth: I think a plus *could* look good. Just not the ones I tried. 13:30:15 <Mic> And no icon isn't that bad either. 13:30:45 <flo> I don't think we really need an icon there 13:31:01 <flo> in a way, having no icon makes that line different :) 13:31:18 <aleth> True 13:32:30 <Mic> "another idea [...] is to alternate the background colors, like in the account manager", Windows doesn't have that but if you use "-moz-oddtreerow", that should be taken into account automatically. 13:34:36 <-- FeuerFliege has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.2a1pre -- http://www.instantbird.com) 13:34:58 --> FeuerFliege has joined #instantbird 13:35:10 <-- FeuerFliege has quit (Input/output error) 13:35:37 <aleth> The account manager has alternating backgrounds? Not on Linux... 13:36:46 --> FeuerFliege has joined #instantbird 13:37:57 <clokep> Nor on Windows it seems. 13:38:16 <clokep> I agree that no icon is needed though. And a plus isn't realy the right thing as it doesn't "open". 13:39:18 <flo> ok, never mind then (it looks like this on Mac: http://i.imgur.com/Dwdgw.png) 13:39:23 <aleth> Do you like the italic font? Is it necessary?

(Aqua I think) 13:40:22 <flo> aleth: the Firefox download manager looks exactly the same as our account manager 13:40:33 <flo> I copied and adapted the css from it 13:41:29 <aleth> Aha :) 13:42:14 <aleth> Looks better as the IB account manager than it does as the Downloads box... 13:42:39 <flo> they have changed the download manager very recently for Firefox ;) 13:43:20 <aleth> they keep saying that ;) has it finally landed? 13:43:44 <flo> yes 13:43:57 <flo> https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=726444 13:44:40 <aleth> And calling the patch "Finally!" I see ;) 13:45:15 <aleth> aha, turned off with a pref atm 13:45:22 <clokep> It looks really bad IMO. :-S 13:45:51 <aleth> oh dear :( 13:46:56 <Mic> It's not very 2012 either. I mean it's not even done in HTML! ;) 13:47:11 <Mic> clokep: do you have a screenshot? 13:47:26 --> Mnyromyr has joined #instantbird 13:47:53 <flo> clokep: it seems quite OK when I tried it in a UX nightly a few weeks ago :-S 13:48:34 <clokep> Mic: One second. 13:48:58 <aleth> I hope it's not like the one in Chrome. 13:48:58 * clokep is trying to find something to download. :P 13:49:43 <flo> s/seems/seemed/ 13:50:20 <clokep> Mic: 13:50:23 <clokep> http://imgur.com/xTSAY 13:50:30 <clokep> flo: I just don't find it useful at all. 13:50:41 <clokep> But I use Download Statusbar so...maybe that's why. 13:50:59 <Mic> Thanks. 13:51:28 <clokep> And the actual manager itself: http://imgur.com/LGSM9 13:51:52 <flo> clokep: the main advantage I see to that change is that I likely won't have the download manager window staying open for days any more 13:52:08 <flo> clokep: that second window seems to just be the (ugly) places window 13:52:12 <aleth> Never been a fan of the library design 13:52:26 <clokep> flo: Yeah getting rid of the window is a big win. :) 13:52:36 <clokep> And yes that's the horrible places window... 13:52:56 <flo> why isn't that large window in a tab, by the way? :) 13:52:56 <FeuerFliege> aleth: i think itâll be fine if they could make it an In-content-UI 13:53:03 <aleth> The download manager will be better if it now has resume/retry options ;) 13:53:22 <aleth> here's hoping... 13:53:42 <FeuerFliege> flo: Thatâs another bug.

But listing them "somewhere" is still a good practice to let new contributors feel that they are part of the team 14:47:19 <flo> (it's very important for new contributors to be able to show to their friends "see, I worked on this, my name is in the about dialog / the copyrights file / ...) 14:50:01 <flo> I know my mother has looked at about:credits several times to check that my name was actually listed there. (By the way, it seems we should request the addition of key instantbird (or at least chat/) contributors to that list) 14:50:27 <clokep> Into Thunderbird? Yeah, that would probably make sense... 14:50:50 <clokep> Yes, I agree. It's good to list them somewhere. I'm just saying we could possibly just expand the list in the about dialogue instead of listing them in each file. 14:50:53 <flo> about:credits is a redirect to a webpage hosted on mozilla.org, not built into the products 14:51:16 <clokep> We need to add at least Varuna and aleth to our credits though. 14:51:29 <flo> I don't have aleth's name though ;) 14:53:16 <flo> I think we tend to update the list in the about dialog only when releasing, and only adding people who have been contributing significantly/several times. 14:53:31 <flo> the list in the code files had the advantage that we could add someone's name immediately at the first patch 14:53:46 <clokep> True, I kind of like it there. 14:53:53 <clokep> We could just put it at the end of the MPL 2 header. 14:54:06 <flo> yes, it's possible 14:54:40 <flo> I have another use case for names in file headers, but not really important at this point for Instantbird: I assume people in that list are likely to know what (some of the) the file does 14:55:14 <flo> I usually add my name in the contributors list of a Firefox/Thunderbird file only when I'm starting to have a significant understanding of it, and would be likely to be helpful if asked a question about it on IRC 14:55:51 <flo> feel free to add more review comments for wnayes' patch, but I think I wrote enough to keep him busy for a few minutes :) 14:58:03 <clokep> flo: I think Mozilla thought the hg log / blame is more useful for that, but I agree that it's useful as it quickly shows who actually has an understanding, not just people who touched the file. 15:01:58 <flo> especially knowing who wrote the initial file is useful to know who I can blame for how crappy a file looks ;) 15:03:58 <-- Mic has quit (Quit: Input/output error ^^) 15:06:47 <clokep> Hahah. Fair enough. :) 15:07:55 <flo> that specific part isn't useful to me for Instantbird, as I'm either the original author or reviewer, so finding who to blame rarely helps me 15:34:56 <-- clokep has quit (Ping timeout) 16:02:04 <-- meh has quit (Quit: reboot) 16:06:22 --> sonny has joined #instantbird 16:46:30 <-- myk has quit (Ping timeout) 17:01:43 <-- Tonnes has quit (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.88.2 [Firefox 12.0/20120420145725]) 17:04:43 <-- sonny has quit (Ping timeout) 17:07:54 --> Tonnes has joined #instantbird 17:14:41 --> NmN has joined #instantbird 17:14:48 <-- NmN has quit (Quit: NmN) 17:18:21 --> wnayes has joined #instantbird 17:24:59 --> sonny has joined #instantbird 17:33:59 --> Mic has joined #instantbird 17:33:59 * ChanServ sets mode +h Mic 17:34:03 <-- Mic has quit (Connection reset by peer) 17:34:42 --> Mic has joined #instantbird 17:34:42 * ChanServ sets mode +h Mic 17:58:06 <-- Tonnes has quit (Ping timeout) 17:58:43 --> Tonnes has joined #instantbird 18:27:37 --> meh has joined #instantbird 18:35:16 --> DGMurdockIII has joined #instantbird 18:43:19 --> Nimbus has joined #instantbird 18:43:54 <Nimbus> hello there 18:44:02 <meh> hello 18:44:33 <Nimbus> is anyone having trouble with fb chat on the latest version of instantbird? 18:46:22 <wnayes> hmm, I just connected my account now that you mention it, and it seems to keep disconnecting. 18:47:07 <Nimbus> I got a "resource conflict" after a whole afternoon of connecting/disconnecting 18:47:56 <wnayes> I'm having "Error: server closed the connection" it seems.

I can't find it in my list, it's pretty nice indeed 19:24:23 <aleth> IRC is a bit confusing, there are different networks (mozilla, freenode, ...) and you have to know which one the channel you'd like to join is on. 19:24:32 <aleth> Hmm, let me check 19:25:01 <aleth> I think that was Monaco 19:26:02 <aleth> uh, I may still have the link for that one 19:26:07 <aleth> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/129604/Monaco_Linux-Powerline.otf 19:26:45 <Lalae> thanks 19:29:18 <aleth> Did you find it confusing that the account wizard asked you for a password? 19:32:44 <Lalae> not so much. as I said, the most confusing thing was the server one, well at least for me. Maybe an IRC frequent user won't find it confusing ;) 19:33:23 <clokep> Well you have it figured out now, so you can come hang out all the time. :P 19:33:30 <aleth> Did you get a hint "and server" in the username box? Was that the confusing thing? 19:33:41 <aleth> (Sorry to bug you, just trying to see if we could improve things) 19:35:16 <Lalae> no problem. it was pre-compiled with the freenode server 19:35:36 <aleth> Ah, so it would have been easier if the server field was blank? 19:35:42 <aleth> That would be an easy fix ;) 19:35:54 <Lalae> for my experience yes 19:36:04 <aleth> OK, thanks :) 19:36:42 <Lalae> not knowing there were multiple servers I just entered that one supposing I'd have found you there (once joined the channel of course) 19:36:46 <-- DGMurdockIII has quit (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.88.2 [Firefox 13.0/20120501201020]) 19:37:04 <-- Tomek has quit (Connection reset by peer) 19:37:09 <clokep> Yeah we default IRC to freenode and XMPP to jabber.org I think. 19:37:43 --> meh has joined #instantbird 19:37:56 --> Tomek has joined #instantbird 19:38:31 <aleth> Yes, based on this I wonder whether having a default isn't more confusing than helpful. Maybe we could display a hint instead (light grey "for example: chat.freenode.org" or something like that) 19:38:56 <Lalae> yes that could be helpful 19:41:21 <Lalae> imho it depends whether the person setting up the account knows how IRC works or not. 19:42:20 <aleth> Sure, but defaults shouldn't get in the way if we can help it. After all a wizard is supposed to guide you a bit ;) 19:42:58 <clokep> aleth: I think IRC and XMPP need another page which let you choose a network or configure your own. 19:44:38 <aleth> That would be even better... 19:45:22 <clokep> Thanks for the feedback Lalae. :) 19:45:26 <clokep> Every bit helps... 19:45:30 <Lalae> clokep: I just re-read the conversation, you were asking "message theme"...uh, maybe wasn't clear what I meant in my review? 19:45:40 <Lalae> you're welcome :) 19:45:46 <clokep> What review? 19:45:57 <Lalae> the one about DarkChat 19:45:59 <clokep> I was asking what DarkChat was. 19:46:06 <Lalae> ahn XD 19:46:15 <Lalae> it's a message theme, yes 19:46:33 <aleth> clokep: https://addons.instantbird.org/en-US/instantbird/addon/126 19:47:03 <clokep> Interesting... 19:47:03 <Mic> Click on a irc://irc.mozilla.org/#instantbird link -> (No account configured for this server, please choose a user name to create one ->) #instantbird tab opens. 19:47:07 <Mic> That would be nice.. 19:47:25 <clokep> Mic: And if you have multiple accounts it asks to choose one? 19:48:09 <Mic> Ah, good point ;) 19:48:11 <aleth> Oh, can you register IB to open links like that? 19:48:26 <clokep> Yes. 19:48:31 <clokep> We just don't have code to handle them. 19:48:36 <Mic> aleth: you can register links for that but we wouldn't handle them yet 19:48:53 <clokep> There's also a few different ways to do IRC links btw. ;) 19:49:07 <clokep> bug 516 19:49:12 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=516 enh, --, ---, nobody, NEW, Register protocol handlers for IM protocols 19:49:56 <clokep> Ah that bug actually has a lot of good information if someone wanted to start handling that... 19:57:17 <instantbot> New Instantbird (UI) bug 1426 filed by aletheia2@fastmail.fm. 19:57:19 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1426 nor, --, ---, nobody, NEW, IRC Account wizard somewhat confusing for users new to IRC 19:57:35 <Lalae> since you guys are so kind, can you please enlighten me about how the nicknames stuff work? I mean, why are so many colors, wha the stars mean and what's that wi-fi look alike symbol? 19:59:16 <clokep> Gold star is a channel operator, a silver star is a channel half-operator and instantbot has "voice" status. 19:59:32 <clokep> An operator is an administrator of sorts (they can boot people, change the topic, things like that). 19:59:39 <clokep> And a half-op can do some of those things, but not everything. :) 19:59:43 <Lalae> ok 20:00:11 <Lalae> and what about colors? 20:00:12 <clokep> The colors match the message theme (if it supports it, I guess). So you can quickly tell the difference between people talking and match them with the participants list. 20:00:24 <clokep> If they're gray, that means they haven't spoken (they're "inactive"). 20:00:39 <aleth> clokep: They will only be gray if she is using a nightly ;) 20:00:48 <clokep> aleth: Right. :) 20:01:37 <Lalae> actually they're pink, blue, red, orange, green...with no specific order 20:02:13 <Lalae> aleth, you're fucsia! and clokep red just like me 20:02:29 <clokep> Lalae: Yes, they're not supposed to be ordered. 20:02:45 <clokep> It wouldn't make sense to have two nicks that are almost the same be the same color! It's supposed to help you tell them apart! 20:02:56 <aleth> If you use a message style which is more "colourful" the messages will have the same colour as the sender in some way 20:03:38 <Lalae> oh I think DarkChat has this possibility too ;) 20:03:52 <aleth> I don't remember :-/ 20:03:54 <Lalae> I just liked it most with the green/orange style 20:04:11 <Lalae> it works with msn so I think it'd work with IRC too 20:04:18 <Lalae> I'll give it a try, hold on :D 20:04:25 <aleth> Anyway, there are lots of small improvements coming in the next version of Instantbird :) 20:04:42 <Lalae> nice! 20:05:03 <aleth> (like that the nicks in the participant list only get coloured once they say something) 20:05:22 --> myk has joined #instantbird 20:06:03 <-- myk has quit (Quit: Instantbird -- http://www.instantbird.com) 20:06:16 <Lalae> ok it works for msn but not for IRC 20:06:18 --> myk has joined #instantbird 20:06:36 <-- myk has quit (Quit: Instantbird -- http://www.instantbird.com) 20:06:53 <aleth> I guess it doesn't really fit with a message style that's meant to look like an oldschool monochrome monitor ;) 20:07:24 <-- sonny has quit (Ping timeout) 20:07:31 <Lalae> :P 20:08:02 <Lalae> that's why I disabled it 20:19:05 --> sonny has joined #instantbird 20:20:47 <-- sonny has quit (Client exited) 20:24:24 <-- Mic has quit (Ping timeout) 20:37:31 --> Mic has joined #instantbird 20:37:31 * ChanServ sets mode +h Mic 20:42:03 --> EionRobb has joined #instantbird 20:46:26 <Mic> There's the request to include an explanation for the icon into the participant's tooltip: bug 960 20:46:29 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=960 nor, --, ---, nobody, NEW, Show description of rank in conferences in tooltips 20:52:39 <aleth> Maybe there should be a tooltip redesign tag? There seem to be a bunch of tooltip ideas filed... 20:55:59 <Mic> aleth: I have one more! Everytime I look at an IRC tooltip I think "Why aren't 'Connected from' and 'Connected to' placed next to each other?" ;) 20:56:34 <aleth> Yeah... 20:57:26 <Mic> Is that even possible or are the fields in random order? 20:58:37 <aleth> Some are always present and in an order we fix, the rest are in the order the server sends them 21:00:40 <Mic> clokep: if it's possible to re-order these fields I'd file a (silly;) enhancement request for it. 21:02:57 <clokep> Mic: Yes, we do that for tiwtter. please file abug. 21:03:08 <Mic> OK. 21:03:10 <instantbot> New Core - IRC bug 1427 filed by benediktp@ymail.com. 21:03:14 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1427 enh, --, ---, nobody, NEW, Show "Connected to" and "Connected from" in IRC tooltips next to each other 21:11:25 <-- FeuerFliege has quit (Ping timeout) 21:19:56 <-- Mnyromyr has quit (Quit: ChatZilla 0.9.86 [SeaMonkey 1.1.19/2010030105]) 21:29:34 <-- chrisccoulson has quit (Ping timeout) 21:32:39 --> micahg has joined #instantbird 21:34:15 <instantbot> benediktp@ymail.com set the Resolution field on bug 431 to WORKSFORME. 21:34:17 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431 nor, --, ---, nobody, RESO WORKSFORME, Yahoo: cannot login when special chars in password 21:38:12 --> chrisccoulson has joined #instantbird 21:41:22 <clokep> Lalae: I'm told that the Facebook servers should be all stable and working now. 21:41:41 <Lalae> yes it works now :) 21:42:46 <Lalae> I really hoped it was a FB issue and not an IB one 'cause I like IB pretty much and I didn't want to find an alternative XD 21:43:46 <clokep> I'm glad to hear that! :) Please let us know if you have other issues / questions. We've filed a few bugs based on your comments. ;) 21:44:41 <Lalae> sure! I've seen them ^^ 21:45:15 <Lalae> when will the new version be released? 21:47:25 <clokep> "soon" is the best answer I can give. :( 21:47:31 <clokep> We'd like to do it within the next few weeks. 21:47:38 <clokep> You're using Instantbird 1.1, right? 21:48:09 <clokep> But yeah, I hope within a month. :) It's got a lot of new features. 21:48:34 <Lalae> can't wait to see them! Yes I'm using the 1.1 one 21:50:07 <clokep> :) Hopefully we'll blog about some of them. I mean I kind of talk about stuff in the status updates, but don't do it justice. 21:50:17 <clokep> I think aleth is part way through a blog post though? ;) 21:50:29 <clokep> (Yes, a not so subtle hint...) 22:03:23 <-- wnayes has quit (Quit: Instantbird -- http://www.instantbird.com) 22:05:05 <flo> I haven't seen any JS-IRC quit message with the version number yet 22:05:45 <-- micahg has quit (Quit: Ex-Chat) 22:06:08 <flo> the confusion about using freenode instead of mozilla to come in #instantbird seems to me like we should have some presence in irc.freenode.net#instantbird (if only to have a bot telling people to go to moznet instead) 22:06:38 <-- chrisccoulson has quit (Ping timeout) 22:06:48 <Mic> flo: the look of the conversation input box on OSX breaks if we set "moz-appearance: none." if I'm not mistaken? 22:07:39 <flo> I don't really remember, but that's likely 22:08:36 <clokep> flo: http://log.bezut.info/instantbird/today/#m25 22:10:02 <flo> :) 22:10:17 <flo> maybe I haven't noticed because it looked normal :) 22:11:11 <clokep> Perhaps. :) Could take a few days for people to update to it too. 22:17:47 <flo> have you looked at wnayes' latest comment in the bug? 22:18:00 <flo> is there any benefit to the {s,g}etUserData methods? 22:18:11 <flo> (compared to just setting a JS property on the DOM node) 22:18:29 <instantbot> benediktp@ymail.com requested review from clokep@gmail.com for attachment 1451 on bug 713. 22:18:31 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=713 nor, --, ---, nobody, NEW, Text box missing left and right padding 22:20:10 <-- Lalae has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.1) 22:21:32 --> Lalae has joined #instantbird 22:22:16 <flo> Mic: have you tried this patch with both the Windows Vista+ (aero?) and the Windows Classic themes? 22:22:40 <Mic> Aero Only. 22:23:11 <-- Tomek has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.1) 22:28:34 <Mic> It's "fixing" the padding also with the classic theme. 22:29:20 <Mic> And I don't like the wide gap between border and caret though... maybe I should have WONTFIXed it right away? ;) 22:32:53 --> chrisccoulson has joined #instantbird 22:34:01 <instantbot> benediktp@ymail.com cancelled review?(clokep@gmail.com) for attachment 1451 on bug 713. 22:34:06 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=713 nor, --, ---, nobody, NEW, Text box missing left and right padding 22:38:36 <-- skeledre1 has quit (Ping timeout) 22:39:27 --> skeledre1 has joined #instantbird 22:42:48 <flo> Mic: or just added -moz-padding-start/end with a few pixels? 22:49:53 <Mic> Yes, I meant tweaking the paddings but using padding-left/right or -moz-padding-start/end shouldn't make a difference if the values are the same on both sides, should it? 22:51:46 <flo> right 22:54:00 <Mic> Someone's having quite a lot of messages in his conversations: bug 1140 :o 22:54:05 <instantbot> Bug https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1140 maj, --, ---, nobody, UNCO, Ctrl+F search in a conversation window with a long backlog hangs Instantbird 22:56:30 <Mic> Good night 22:56:35 <-- Mic has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.2a1pre -- http://www.instantbird.com) 23:13:07 <-- chrisccoulson has quit (Ping timeout) 23:24:42 <flo> Good night :) 23:24:43 <-- flo has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.2a1pre -- http://www.instantbird.com) 23:47:46 --> micahg has joined #instantbird 23:52:50 <Lalae> Good night everybody :) 23:52:57 <-- Lalae has quit (Quit: Instantbird 1.1)
