  14. # [11:50] <sstewart6> MikeSmith: yt?
  15. # [12:02] <MikeSmith> sstewart6: hey
  16. # [12:02] <MikeSmith> here now
  17. # [12:02] <MikeSmith> got your mail about the validators
  18. # [12:03] <sstewart6> Great.
  19. # [12:03] <sstewart6> That's what I was going to ping you about :)
  20. # [12:03] <sstewart6> I guess a normal HTML5 validator and a link checker are what we need
  21. # [12:03] <sstewart6> You suggested some last time, and I've since moved jobs and (more importantly) machines
  22. # [12:04] <MikeSmith> yea. as far as the HTML5 validator goes, I have a prepackaged jar at https://bitbucket.org/sideshowbarker/vnu
  23. # [12:04] <MikeSmith> you can run locally
  24. # [12:05] <MikeSmith> about link checker, lemme find a URL
  25. # [12:05] <MikeSmith> https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/link-checker/
  26. # [12:05] <sstewart6> Ah! Those prebuilt jars are really useful
  27. # [12:06] <sstewart6> thank you
  28. # [12:06] <MikeSmith> they7re a bit out of date now but should be fine
  29. # [12:08] <MikeSmith> so link checker requires the W3C::LinkChecker perl module
  30. # [12:08] <sstewart6> I can always add instructions to the README
  31. # [12:09] <MikeSmith> ok
  32. # [12:10] <MikeSmith> it's also possible to run the CSS validator locally
  33. # [12:11] <MikeSmith> as an HTTP service
  34. # [12:12] <MikeSmith> also I think Robin Berjon has some scripts he uses for the HTML spec that might be portable
  35. # [12:12] <MikeSmith> darobin
  36. # [12:12] <MikeSmith> for doing some pubrules preflight stuff
  37. # [12:14] <sstewart6> That'd be handy. I'd love to hook the validation into our Makefile
  38. # [12:19] <MikeSmith> sstewart6: so for that ping darobin here when he's on
  39. # [12:19] <sstewart6> Will do
  40. # [12:19] <sstewart6> Thank you
  41. # [12:19] <sstewart6> Right now, I'm wrestling with python to output a unicode string to a file
  42. # [12:20] <sstewart6> It shouldn't be this hard :)
  43. # [12:21] <MikeSmith> heh
  44. # [12:23] <MikeSmith> unicode handling is one of the few things about python that frustrate me
  45. # [12:23] <MikeSmith> would have been nice if foresight had been there to get that right from earlier on

  48. # [12:42] * Joins: darobin (rberjon@public.cloak)
  49. # [12:54] <sstewart6> Right. Just checked in the first hacky version of the spec validator to the webdriver dvcs
  50. # [13:49] * Quits: darobin (rberjon@public.cloak) (Client closed connection)
  51. # [13:50] <sstewart6> MikeSmith: Right. I think we're in reasonable shape to make a push for the next WD.

  75. # [21:59] <DavidBurns> sstewart6: what are your opinions of having issues with the WD being raised as bugs?
  76. # [22:00] <sstewart6> In which tracker?
  77. # [22:00] <sstewart6> I'm not opposed :)
  78. # [22:00] <DavidBurns> w3 bugzilla instance
  79. # [22:01] <DavidBurns> I am only asking as a way to try prevent us from doing double commits, which I appreciate is hard when on a plane
  80. # [22:02] <DavidBurns> but its also an automatic way to tell the reporter that it is fixed/updated
  81. # [22:02] <DavidBurns> and other specs do that too
  82. # [22:03] <DavidBurns> sstewart6: e.g. https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=20492
  83. # [22:03] <sstewart6> I'm happy either way.
  84. # [22:04] <sstewart6> I think one reason we collide is that we've both been waiting for travel before doing work
  85. # [22:04] <sstewart6> I'm now picking up the pace a bit, so hopefully there will be fewer collisions
  86. # [22:05] <sstewart6> Also, we could just make the spec Really, Really Long. Then it's unlikely we'd hit the same areas
  87. # [22:05] <DavidBurns> I am also hoping to pick up the pace too
  88. # [22:06] <DavidBurns> since I have a month off work soon-ish
  89. # [22:06] <DavidBurns> and I can't just sit idle that entire time, even though I wont be idle
  90. # [22:06] <sstewart6> A month off? Nice for some.
  91. # [22:07] <sstewart6> :)
  92. # [22:07] <DavidBurns> :)
  93. # [22:07] <DavidBurns> Paternity leave ftw
  94. # [22:07] <sstewart6> So you're going to have plenty of time
  95. # [22:07] <sstewart6> And won't be distracted in the slightest :)
  96. # [22:07] <DavidBurns> *plenty*
  97. # [22:07] <jhammel> hmmm....i should have kids then
  98. # [22:07] <jhammel> do you have to keep them after the leave?
  99. # [22:07] <sstewart6> Ha!
  100. # [22:08] <sstewart6> Normally
  101. # [22:08] <DavidBurns> jhammel: ideally you keep them
  102. # [22:08] <jhammel> that sounds less than ideal :/
  103. # [22:08] <DavidBurns> and give them plenty of cuddles
  104. # [22:08] <DavidBurns> you actually cant give them enought
  105. # [22:09] <sstewart6> Baby cuddles are surprisingly good.
  106. # [22:09] <DavidBurns> s/good/amazing/
  107. # [22:09] <DavidBurns> s/surprising//
  108. # [22:12] <sstewart6> I was never sure about babies until I had one. I imagine that jhammel is in the same boat
  109. # [22:12] <jhammel> heh. no, i've decided not to propagate for several reasons ;)
  110. # [22:12] <jhammel> surprisingly, all of them off topic
