[12:22:08] yuvipanda: oh wow [12:22:54] awjr: random drunk person just sat next to me and asked me to get hi a job using the internet [12:23:01] told him internet works only for 'office' [12:23:06] lol [12:30:24] damn it feels cold [12:30:29] 26C + wind [12:30:57] [WikipediaMobile] yuvipanda pushed 1 new commit to master: http://git.io/bmchVA [12:30:57] [WikipediaMobile/master] App no longer 'crashes' on faulty 'forward' - YuviPanda [12:31:07] yuvipanda: it's −10C here! [12:31:13] Project WikipediaMobile - Nightly builds build #170: SUCCESS in 9.2 sec: http://integration.mediawiki.org/ci/job/WikipediaMobile%20-%20Nightly%20builds/170/ [12:31:14] yuvipanda: App no longer 'crashes' on faulty 'forward' [12:31:31] awjr: I've always wanted to be at one of those places, so I can breathe and it looks like smoke [12:31:40] heh [12:31:54] sortof happened in SF, but not really [12:32:03] hehe no it's not the same as here [12:32:13] speaking of which, im going to brave the cold and head outside for some lunch. talk to you later! [12:46:21] despritifying [14:40:17] wow [14:40:31] https://market.android.com/apps/BOOKS_AND_REFERENCE?feature=category-nav :D [14:40:36] Top Free tab [14:40:43] thedj: --^ [14:40:52] Reedy: --^ [14:40:59] Was just looking :D [14:41:05] Reedy: why aren't you at FOSDEM ? [14:41:46] Somewhat forgot about it :/ [14:41:58] time to bring out the bubbly. were now at over 1million installs [14:42:02] 1,018,821 total installs :D [14:42:17] in about 2 weks [14:42:19] *weeks [14:42:19] i need to put up a blog post about it [14:42:20] 3 weeks [14:42:22] maybe 3 [14:42:38] the launch was 1/13 [14:43:06] so we've barely been active and we already have the eyes of 1million android users [14:43:35] "Sucks Dick" - [14:43:35] Fuckin horrible. [14:43:38] Aaah [14:43:59] "what's the point of this ap if you can't edit?" [14:45:50] some good lolz in there [14:45:55] let me see if i can find my favorite [14:46:07] There's a couple of them that are easily actioned [14:46:16] e.g. someone asking why it needs gps [14:47:40] cant seem to find it [14:48:03] it was a comments responding to another commenter about how if they actually used the app [14:48:09] they'd find the features they were asking for [14:48:14] win [14:48:21] It's interesting how different people percieve how many stars it should get based the "issues" they found [14:48:31] along with things like .. it needs GPS to find articles near you dumbass [14:48:32] lolz [14:48:37] yeah [14:48:45] Probably just add it to the app description? [14:49:04] Actually [14:49:15] We could get people to mass mark comments as spam/unhelpfulk [14:49:20] see if they disappear :D [14:49:28] sure, we could do that [14:49:31] but honestly .. its noise [14:49:37] and we only have so much time for noise [14:50:08] if 99% of people can figure out why we have GPS [14:50:26] then i'm not too keen on changing everything to hit that last % [14:50:44] what would be nice is if we could modify the permissions tab [14:50:49] and explain everything there [14:50:54] so the overview is nice and clean [14:54:01] MaxSem, 1 million+ android app installs via the market [14:54:16] whee [14:55:32] MaxSem: you should come by to FOSDEM next tiem [14:55:59] we'll see [14:56:24] MaxSem: have you ever gone before ? [14:56:31] nope [14:57:27] then we should fix that sometime. if anything just to hang out with the rest of us [14:57:57] MaxSem: how are you doing with your work backlog ? We'll be traveling pretty aggressively this week so most of us won't be at the stand ups [14:58:05] i want to make sure that you have everything that you need [14:59:21] tfinc, no problems so far. would be good to catch several of you on IRC to discuss some behaviour details though [15:01:25] just email right now [15:01:30] thats going to be way easier [15:01:43] ummm [15:02:12] email is slow [15:02:37] yeah, but its asynchronous which is going to work best right now [15:02:45] what we could do it to get a bunch of us on mon/tues [15:02:53] most of us aren't flying to india until wed [15:06:46] this graph on the other hand is not encouraging http://www.geonames.org/img/charts/ws-creditsld8163-NhBKEPcu6P86DGxC7SYivA.png [15:07:18] while we've increased our total users .. location based lookups are not keeping up .. in fact they look to be trending down [15:12:26] downloading maps over the air still sucks even today. initially, people played with this feature - now they just use when they need it [15:13:30] or maybe the feature is not shiny enough itself [15:14:17] certainly. and we already have some idea implemented for it [15:14:27] like when you tap the GPS link in the newest version [15:14:38] it'll show you all the articles around that article [15:14:41] which'll be fun [15:14:48] but we can certainly make it even more shiny [15:14:49] :) [15:15:00] I personally count on 200-300 K requests/day within a year [15:15:50] hehe [15:15:51] yes [16:19:21] tfinc: how does apple app store vs gpl2 apply for the wikipedia ios app? [16:22:15] good question. it hasn't come up as a discussion [16:26:12] thankfully for us everything in the app is gplv2 [20:41:00] A while ago I created my own wikipedia iPhone application that adds image uploading and some other features. It also works on the iPad. The GitHub page shows no one has ever looked at it, so if anyone is interested, they can find it at https://github.com/benbenbob1/Wikipedia-App [21:00:16] I liked the idea of for a tab bar that could open up to hold more buttons
