m&m: morning. have you seen ben langfelds request for publication of rayo on standards@?

I did, and I need to respond, because I'm not sure I still have those patches /-:

oh, he sent hints of where his patches are actually located

thanks m&m ;-)

any xslt pro here? :) need to have an incrementing counter in an xsl:template

Tobias: position() isn't good enough?

position somehow always gives the same number

for the first <img> tag being matched i want 0, for the next 1 and so on

or starting at 1

The main problem is that "variables" are in fact constants. The usual way of fixing it is either using recursion, or walk over the elements with an xsl:for-each

position should work for the latter.

the for each would be without a <xsl:template>, right?

the for-each can call a template

<xsl:for-each select="img"> <cmd name="includegraphics"><xsl:value-of select="position()" /></cmd> </xsl:for-each>

so this would replace all <img/> with a <cmd name...>0...n</cmd>?

I think so, but it's been a long while since I've done XSLT, but that feels right

Sorry, wandered off. That should work. My XSLT is a bit rusty as well, though.

element for-each only allowed within a template, variable or param compilation error: file xep2texml.xsl line 408 element value-of element value-of only allowed within a template, variable or param compilation error: file xep2texml.xsl line 407 element for-each xsltParseStylesheetTop: unknown for-each element

probably that's more for when you want to put all <img>s at one place

but i basically want to replace the tag in place

But those <img/>s must have a parent element.

Just run a template on that element.

usually in a <p>

yes

however i need that counter being global

you could also select the count of <img/> elements that precede the current one

Sure.

m&m, that sounds useful, how?

it would essentially be counter i'm looking for

IIRC, count is a function, and preceding:<path> is the selector within the count()

but it's been a long time

thx

stackoverflow to the rescue

yes..works ....thanks :)

soon we'll have images in our PDFs :)

nice

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/14672346/xmpp/extensions/xep-0324.pdf not perfect yet, but a good start i think

Nice sequence diagrams!

well...at least now we *can* use something else than ascii art :D

16:41 < xmpp:xsf@muc.xmpp.org/Tobias> soon we'll have images in our PDFs :)

errr...

errr...?

nice!

well..it's pushed...as soon as someone hits a rebuild of all XEPs, the images should be included

thanks Tobias

I'm a little hesitant to run all.sh at the moment

maybe we can do that this weekend

or someone else with rights can do it (-:

xsf@athena:~/xmpp-hg/extensions$ ./gen.py -a ./gen.py:79: Warning: 'with' will become a reserved keyword in Python 2.6 File "./gen.py", line 79 with open(output_dir + '/' + 'inlineimage-' + str(no) + '.' + file_ext, 'wb') as f: ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

what's wrong with that? ✏

worked on osx with Python 2.7.5

ah..athena has Python 2.5.2

i think the whole "with" is pretty new

Tobias: is "?" close to "ß" on your keyboard?

stpeter, same key on german keyboard :) just a shift between them :)

fippo, so just write f = open(...) ?

Tobias: from future import with_statement?

yeah..need to add a latex package too..since it's also not present on athena

Well, from __future__ import with_statement, obviously

cp -r deps /tmp/xepbuilder/ <--- how do i write this so it copies files from deps to xepbuilder folder, not creating the deps folder in the xepbuilder folder?

cp -r deps/* /tmp/xepbuilder/ ?

wouldn't the * require a shell?

Or (cd debs; cp -r . /tmp/xepbuilder) if you're worried about the number of files.

Both require a shell.

Are you running this from a shell script?

Oh, Python?

commands.getstatusoutput

python

http://docs.python.org/2/library/shutil.html

shutil.copytree might be of interest.

i'll try the * thing

getstatusoutput actually spawns a shell, IIRC

so..rebuilding xeps

heh

there is a good supply of bacon on Tenerife, too

fippo, better than http://i.imgur.com/TuBI68M.jpg :)

I can't decide if that sounds awesome or awful.

I can't decide if I should run to the store and see if they have any ... or walk.

eek

that is not bacon

I have found this tweet: https://twitter.com/betamax65/status/441124379318321152/photo/1

neustradamus: "June 25, 2013: We have temporarily disabled account registration"

but telling the iteam might help

iteam aren't responsible for jabber.org

yes I know this, maybe a person can reply ;)

Tobias: https://twitter.com/Neustradamus/status/422532965583687680 some months ago ;)

yeah..wonder if they are cool enough to use twitter as support input

neustradamus: simon and I were in contact with some marketing guy via the FSFE -- not much of a response

let's break it for them, then watch them struggle to fix it.

Break all the things!
