ezodtodo: screenshots, platform detection12:32
ezodand we'll add a category for "bundle" packages when we have some12:33
tansellezod, no filtering yet?12:43
tansellOh, I like the boxes at the top12:47
tanselloh, you have install instructions12:49
tanselllooking at the install instructions12:50
tansellthey should be customised for the current thing you are looking at12:50
ezodnot sure what you mean12:54
ezodthere are instructions for the platform in general, then specific instructions for the package12:54
tansellIE if the person is running etch, then the instructions should be specific for etch12:55
tansellwe want the steps to be as simple as possible12:55
tansellbrb12:55
ezodok, we would have to add separate platforms for feisty, gutsy, hardy, etch, and sid then...12:55
ezodtoo cluttered to do it the current way, imo12:55
ezodperhaps that's where UA detection could help?12:56
*** mithro has joined #tp12:56
mithroIE we want it to be as much copy and paste as possible12:57
ezodwould the particular distribution for debian or ubuntu be in the UA string?12:58
ezodbecause i can parse it into some variables that the instructions would be able to use12:58
ezoddoesn't look like there's any way to automatically determine that13:01
mithroI think so13:01
ezodin some cases it seems to13:02
ezodbut it's not looking very reliable13:02
mithroMozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008092510 Ubuntu/8.04 (hardy) Firefox/3.0.313:02
ezodhrm13:02
ezodwell, i can check, and default to what's there if i can't determine it13:03

ezodcomment: only sometimes will you get a linux distro to id itself...13:08
ezodheh13:08
ezodi can use a subset of that for the main download page os detection13:09
ezodas far as hardy/feisty/gutsy and etch/sid, i'll just see if i can find the strings in the UA, which should cover the majority of cases13:09

mithroit only really matters for Debs and RPM stuff13:14
ezodmithro: the ubuntu page should work now13:20
ezodwill only show the "replace DIST..." instructions if it can't determine your distro13:21
ezodso if you have "hardy" in your UA string for example you should see the appropriate text13:21
mithrookay13:21
mithroezod: do you have access to IE?13:34
ezodnot at this moment, but i can later, why?13:35
mithroI have a change I want to roll out for index.php13:40
mithrobut I'm afraid it will break IE13:40
ezodwell, if you like, i can let you know when i'm near a copy of IE ;)13:45
