09:59:45 <bwolfe> jmiranda: I got an email from them and registered yesterday
10:00:03 <jmiranda> jmiranda: nope. i emailed karie about the tutorials
10:01:05 <jmiranda> she said: I put you down for 2 open tutorials, just so you had the full pass available to you. Once you arrive, we can try and switch it around to what you want (no promises though).
10:01:31 <jmiranda> i asked about the rest of the week, but she didn't respond to it directly
10:01:36 <bwolfe> jmiranda: haha, so we might get something random?
10:01:43 <jmiranda> i guess
10:01:54 <bwolfe> jmiranda: did you put down andreas's or tom's name?
10:02:00 <jmiranda> but monday afternoon tutorials look awful anyway
10:02:04 <jmiranda> no
10:02:09 <jmiranda> i didn't know they were coming
10:02:57 <bwolfe> jmiranda: hmm, thought you were on that email thread.
10:03:06 <bwolfe> I don't know that they are for sure, but I did offer them the chance
10:03:30 <jmiranda> i was under the impression that it didn't matter anyway
10:03:46 <jmiranda> we only get one full pass that we have to share
10:03:55 <jmiranda> but i'll send a message to karie
10:05:02 <bwolfe> ah
10:05:11 <bwolfe> I figured they would need names to let people in

21:46:46 <docpaul> hello!
21:47:24 <pearlbear> hi docpaul
21:48:23 <docpaul> heya matt, michelle. :)
21:48:28 <[OmegentooX]> docpaul, got internet in the new place yet?
21:49:20 <pearlbear> docpaul: fyi - haven't heard from WHO folks yet
21:49:25 <docpaul> yes, as of last night
21:49:32 <docpaul> michelle: so, if you don
21:49:51 <docpaul> t by the time I leave for italy next week... i'll be with them in person next week
21:49:59 <docpaul> so we'll sort through all of it soon enough
21:50:08 <[OmegentooX]> Italy!
21:51:57 <docpaul> yap... been before?
21:52:09 <[OmegentooX]> Nope, I wish. I have some family there, somewhere
21:52:14 <docpaul> neat
21:52:40 <pearlbear> docpaul: ok, sounds good
21:53:02 <[OmegentooX]> docpaul, any count for the # of SoC apps this year?
21:53:18 <docpaul> less than last year... which is a good thing. :)
21:53:21 <[OmegentooX]> lol
21:53:23 <docpaul> lemme check
21:53:56 <[OmegentooX]> Whatever happened to last year's guys? I'm completely unaware of anyone that didn't hang out on the IRC
21:54:14 <docpaul> involved at various levels
21:54:23 <[OmegentooX]> Cool
21:54:24 <docpaul> some continue to be involved
21:54:32 <docpaul> others have totally disappeared
21:54:50 *** ud has quit IRC
21:54:53 <docpaul> which i guess is fairly typical from what leslie has said
21:54:59 <[OmegentooX]> Yeah =/
21:55:26 <docpaul> we were diluted in some ways by the fact that we instituted our own mentorship program as well
21:55:34 <docpaul> which brought with it 6 folks
21:57:53 <[OmegentooX]> Ooo
21:58:54 <docpaul> my guess is we'll have 10 again
21:59:09 <docpaul> which is fantastic given the current mentorship demands. :)
21:59:30 <docpaul> so, did burke have a talk with you about our conversation?
21:59:41 <docpaul> our being... burke and I?
21:59:48 <[OmegentooX]> Yup yup.. pearlbear and I were just scheduling a meeting in person in /msg =)
22:00:06 <docpaul> wonderful.
22:10:38 <pearlbear> I'm going to be sending out another email about the documentation stuff tomorrow - I think it makes sense, for now, to stick with mediawiki. So the next step is to work on the doc structure and organization
22:11:35 <docpaul> do you think there's a pathway out of mediawiki if the demand arises?
22:12:04 <docpaul> i think i agree with you in that there might be value in simply organizing what's already there
22:12:10 <docpaul> to start.
22:12:56 <pearlbear> there's always a pathway, the question is, how steep. :-) I think it's hard to say without knowing what might be next. Migrating to a different wiki won't be too bad. Migrating to a completely different platform might be harder
22:13:31 <pearlbear> it felt like what I heard was the major pain was organization, not the tool itself
22:13:48 <[OmegentooX]> From my experience with mediawiki syntax, exporting can be difficult. Obviously, HTML is already there and that can be used by most anything though
22:14:23 <[OmegentooX]> Alternate MediaWiki parsers for exporting to different formats: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Alternative_parsers
22:14:23 <pearlbear> but there are increasing numbers of wiki translation tools...
22:14:24 <OpenMRSBot> <http://ln-s.net/1nXl> (at meta.wikimedia.org)
22:15:23 <pearlbear> wow, I'm impressed OpenMRSBot
22:15:26 <docpaul> here's the big problem with mediawiki, and it might be solvable within mediawiki itself
22:15:47 <docpaul> people naturally want to be able to search documentation
22:16:04 <docpaul> as it stands, searches today are global
22:16:22 <docpaul> b/c some of the pages are documenttion and some are community support kind of stuff
22:16:29 <docpaul> it makes search results sucky
22:16:44 <docpaul> that doesn't even speak to the style of search results we currently get
22:17:03 <docpaul> but i bet with some mediawiki coercion you could circumvent both issues
22:17:04 <pearlbear> right. This should be solvable, I agree
22:17:19 <docpaul> but when people want to search documentation, they should only get documentation
22:17:30 <pearlbear> right
22:17:34 <docpaul> categories at some level help with that...
22:17:48 <docpaul> but it requires that one be dogged about the conventions as they build
22:17:56 <docpaul> we spoke with karl fogel last week
22:18:12 <docpaul> and he said that we'll likely need to evolve the community role of curator
22:18:16 <[OmegentooX]> docpaul, you can create "categories in mediawiki" for searching
22:18:16 <pearlbear> yeah, it is true that building a really good wiki takes a lot of gardening
22:18:26 <[OmegentooX]> http://openmrs.org/wiki/Special:Search?search=category%3Aopenmrs&go=Search searches the "openmrs" category
22:18:31 <docpaul> right... that was the point
22:18:35 <OpenMRSBot> <http://ln-s.net/1nXm> (at openmrs.org)
22:19:00 <docpaul> [OmegentooX]: yep... for sure, but once again... we'd have to create community conventions such that things were tagged correctly with proper categories
22:19:10 <docpaul> or simply have a curator keep up with the incoming work
22:19:11 <[OmegentooX]> Yup
22:19:29 <[OmegentooX]> Curators, eh. Responsible community, yay =)
22:19:31 <docpaul> so, i leave it up to you both to help us evolve a better way
22:20:00 <docpaul> and then i can help create the culture around those ideas... along with burkey the turkey
22:20:23 <[OmegentooX]> lol
22:21:09 <pearlbear> :-)
22:21:34 <docpaul> part of helping us evolve a better way to me =
22:21:53 <docpaul> getting consensus around better conventions with those closest to OpenMRS
22:22:00 <[OmegentooX]> yup
22:22:03 <pearlbear> agreed
22:22:05 <docpaul> making some clear examples
22:22:29 <docpaul> poking those closest to follow your lead
22:22:52 <docpaul> i can help with the rest
22:23:11 <docpaul> help us turn documentation into what the cool kids are doing
22:23:28 <pearlbear> yup, exactly. :-)
22:23:37 <[OmegentooX]> All you need are lots of buzzwords and Web 2.0 stuff
22:23:40 <docpaul> part of that means getting people into a bit of a lather with good examples that make them want to see more of that
22:23:42 <[OmegentooX]> And suddenly documentation is "in"
22:24:06 <pearlbear> [OmegentooX]: not my strategy... :-P
22:24:11 <docpaul> hehe
22:24:21 <[OmegentooX]> lol
22:24:40 <pearlbear> I think examples are really key
22:24:53 <docpaul> like really sexy examples
22:24:56 <pearlbear> plus also finding ways to grease the path to make documentation easier
22:25:06 <docpaul> with all the cool conventions that one could use
22:25:42 <docpaul> images, breakout boxes, lots of making link simplification things, etc
22:25:59 <pearlbear> yup
22:26:00 <docpaul> just cool stuff to make it easy, fun to do
22:26:04 *** nribeka has quit IRC
22:26:15 <pearlbear> OK, more tomorrow. I'm off for the night. l8r...
22:26:18 <[OmegentooX]> Lots of tags that automatically insert Web 2.0 stuff into the doc and make it look like OS X
22:26:20 <docpaul> night. :)
22:26:23 <docpaul> yeah
22:26:24 <[OmegentooX]> Night
22:26:30 <docpaul> osx = cool
22:26:38 *** pearlbear has quit IRC
22:26:38 <[OmegentooX]> Yeah, I heard you're a convert now
22:27:21 <docpaul> yes i am... what converted me was seeing bootcamp and vmware fusion working together magically
22:27:27 <docpaul> like two peas in a pod
22:27:27 <[OmegentooX]> Yup =)
22:27:40 <[OmegentooX]> Got an iPhone yet?
22:27:46 <docpaul> that is my security blanket
22:27:58 <docpaul> nope... waiting to see what the gphone stuff looks like
22:28:05 <docpaul> might not be able to hold off thogh
22:28:07 <docpaul> heh
22:28:27 <[OmegentooX]> Yeah, you'll be waiting a while
22:28:34 <[OmegentooX]> Just wait until the iPhone upgrades in June
22:29:45 <[OmegentooX]> Android's cool though...I've wanted to mess with it but haven't much
22:30:59 <docpaul> i bought the absolute top of the line macbook pro, and i think it'd be hard to compete with just the raw hardware, osx (which for me is more about the unix like attributes - and spaces than anything), and full winxp functionality to allow me to find better ways to work in osx in the meantime
22:32:22 <[OmegentooX]> It's good stuf
22:32:28 <docpaul> spaces rocks
22:32:39 <[OmegentooX]> I'd really, really, really like a black MacBook. Especially now that my ThinkPad is dying
22:33:16 <[OmegentooX]> docpaul, remind me at some point to update the OpenMRS Dashboard widget I made last summer to work with the newer RSS feed so you can see it in action =)
22:35:08 <docpaul> cool, i will. :)

22:42:16 <docpaul> great
