dhx1jreese: ack :)00:24
jreesehi :)00:24
jreesedhx1: I actually have a patch sitting in my inbox for Hg integration if you're interested00:30
dhx1jreese: I have been sent numerous emails/patches over the past year for the Hg branch I started00:39
dhx1but ultimately it needs a rewrite so that it works with both local and remote repositories00:40
dhx1(command line based + remote retrieval)00:40
dhx1jreese: I'm updating the 'next' branch at the moment00:40
dhx1although I'm not sure where this project is going at the moment00:41
dhx1'/at the moment/d'00:41
dhx1for everyone MantisBT does, GitHub is probably a better option00:43
dhx1*everything00:43
jreesedhx1: it's actually a from-scratch implementation00:51
dhx1:)00:53
dhx1I don't actually use Hg though... only started the plugin to expand the list of things SouceIntegration can do00:53
jreesegotcha00:54
dhx1so I'm happy to see the rewrite committed instead00:54
dhx1it sounds like someone who actually users Hg has spent some time developing it properly00:54
jreeseand tbh, the biggest reason to use mantisbt over things like github is just for the sheer amount of flexibility and customization of workflow00:54
jreeseand there is still a lot of things you can do in mantisbt that isn't even possible in github, just because they focus on the simplest possible solution00:55
dhx1yeah00:56
dhx1I just feel that MantisBT needs a new focus to differentiate itself from other projects00:57
dhx1I don't know...00:58
jreesepossibly00:58
dhx1do you read Hacker News (news.ycombinator.com)?00:58
jreeseI unfortunately don't have the time these days to work on it, and it seems that's a common theme for most of the mantis devs00:59
jreeseyes, I browse it an average of 2-3 times a day00:59
jreesehttps://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=nuclear_eclipse ;)00:59
dhx1:)01:01
dhx1only 2-3 times... you must do a lot of work haha01:01
dhx1http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=333929101:01
jreeseat my previous employers, that number could sometimes be higher ;)01:01
dhx1I'm still keen on updating MantisBT to use HTML5... so we can do some fancy stuff such as offline web app support01:04
dhx1but how that is carried out... I'm not sure01:05
jreeseI probably wouldn't consider it a top priority, but it would be nice01:05
dhx1I did a large experiment with XSLT that went nowhere01:05
jreesethat's because you were using XSLT :P01:06
dhx1haha, I've used it before for scraping websites to good effect :)01:06
dhx1but as a "templating engine"... not so sure01:06

jreesewheee, I finally have a new desk, got one of my desktop machines up and running, and got my own wifi router set up instead of using the crap my ISP provides02:38
dhx1:)02:38
jreesenow I just need to get my linux workstation hooked up and I'll be ready to get back to "work"02:40
jreesejust in time to be sucked away forever by the new star wars game...02:40
dhx1haha02:40
dhx1HTML5's placeholder attribute is terrible for usability02:42
dhx1clicking on the text box doesn't clear the placeholder text... until you start typing02:43
dhx1gray vs black text isn't that clear either02:43
dhx1not sure if you've played with microdata yet02:45
dhx1it seems to be a new strain of divtitus (having to create meaningless HTML elements to hold metadata)02:47
jreesedhx1: which browser?  I thought placeholder went away when the field was focused03:04
dhx1jreese: Chromium nightly03:14
dhx117.0.936.603:15
dhx1oops... 17.0.963.603:15
micahgthat's the Chromium dev channel now BTW :)03:17
dhx1yeah it's fairly up-to-date03:20
