mvrhel_laptop night all08:16.50 
sebras Robin_Watts: congrats mr. watts!09:48.52 
Robin_Watts sebras: Yes, I have managed another year without killing myself in a vending machine accident. Go me!10:19.45 
  :)10:19.52 
paulgardiner Bugzilla seems to be unwell today10:38.12 
jogux paul: agreed, seems very unhappy/unresponsive :(11:14.24 
  bugzilla seems to be back13:08.19

lilltiger Robin_Watts: So funny, and soo true ;D all comp. sci. girls are like that! ;D15:24.17 
Robin_Watts marcosw: You about?15:29.59 
marcosw Robin_Watts: I am now.18:15.43 
Robin_Watts marcosw: Various things...18:21.48 
marcosw uh oh.18:21.53 
Robin_Watts 1) bugzilla wasn't working earlier.18:21.55 
  Apparently it's better now.18:22.01 
  someone on here was complaining that he couldn't manage to open a bug yesterday, he got 'EACCESS_DENIED' or something.18:22.28 
  2) I had a customer talk to me on skype earlier, wanting to know if we have an ftp site they can put a 200Meg pdf file on for us.18:23.02 
  I think they are going to try and send it to me via skype now, but...18:23.16 
marcosw 1) maybe it was during a mysql backup? Those happen every 6 hours and lock the database for 5 minutes or so. 18:24.02 
jogux robin_watts: I'd usually suggest dropbox.18:24.10 
Robin_Watts his problems went on for more than 5 mins, but it's possible.18:24.29 
marcosw 2) I have an ftp site setup for customers, I'll email you the details.18:24.36 
Robin_Watts Thanks.18:24.40 
ddaanet Earlier today I compiled mudraw and played a bit with it.18:28.25 
  I was disappointed by the html (-tt) output. Poppler's pdf2html produce much better output, when it does not render half the text in Symbol (which looks really greek on Windows, for some reason).18:29.43 
  But then I noticed svg output. That's looks really, really neat.18:30.12 
  And that's something I could potentially parse and tweak (to highlight search terms, for example).18:30.40 
lilltiger marcosw: I was able to register an account, change passwords etc, but not submit a bug, i had the issue at 21:40 - 22:00 at 22:51 it workt.18:30.50 
ddaanet Is mupdf the only renderer that can produce svg output?18:31.07 
  I imagine ghostscript would be to raster-centered.18:31.26 
  *too raster-centered18:31.37 
marcosw lilltiger: I checked the mysql and apache2 logs and nothing shows up at those times, so I'm not sure what else I can do. Obviously if it happens again I'd like to know about it.18:36.45 
Robin_Watts ddaanet: I'm not sure about gs' ability to produce svg.18:39.19 
  gs can operate at high level too (as evidenced by pdfwrite), but at the very least all images will be decoded and recompressed.18:40.05 
kens THere was an svgwrite for Ghostscript, but it was never satisfactorily completed, and we dropped it from maintenance, largely due ot lack of demand.19:12.43 
kens re-engages cloaking device19:13.03 
mvrhel_laptop bbiaw19:46.37 
marcosw_ Bugzilla is temporarily down due to an OS update that appears to have failed. I'm in the process of bringing up the backup system now but I'm not sure how long it will take.22:31.23 
aplund I have a very large pdf file which I want to speed up word searching for. Does gs support embedded indexes?22:54.55 
henrys aplund:we don't but I'll talk to some of the staff about making that an enhancement for pdrwite, but we are swamped just now, it won't be soon.23:25.03 
marcosw_ I have bugzilla running on the backup machine. The DNS has been updated but will take a while to propagate (the ip address of the backup server is 50.240.204.218, you can connect using that address if you prefer not waiiting). 23:28.56 
mvrhel_laptop looks like this is actually going to be happening. https://github.com/dotnet23:35.21 
  and it appears that it is going to be under an MIT license23:36.30 
  this is also interesting23:38.43 
  https://github.com/officedev/open-xml-sdk23:38.44 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: I went to watch the screencast and it says the target of the callback could not be found, they're off to a bad start.23:49.27 
mvrhel_laptop uh oh23:49.45 
henrys mvrhel_laptop: it was just an ad on the page23:50.18
