@conniecrosby yes, I plan to be there! And hopefully Identi.ca will have lightweight podcasting tools by then.

@evan podcasting tools?! Do tell!
-
@tmray there will be tools, and they will be for podcasting, and their weight will be of the light variety.
-
@evan: There's an interesting thought: #micropodcasting
-
@tmray seriously, I want to let people upload sound files and stream them by RSS. Recording in browser is hard, but possible.
-
@tmray what's your background in? from you blog it looks like maybe design?
-
@tmray also link to files on other servers; also share video and images. Probably do some scans for executable content.
-
@dwibby: www.12seconds.tv <http://www.12seconds.tv> - how is that for micro-podcasting
-
@evan That would rule! Ever since odeo kinda gave up on that stuff I always wondered if anyone else would do it. Can't wait!
-
@evan podcasting tools! Excellent! Is that why when people sign up for my feed it says they are "listening" to it in the email? Cool!
-
@beermann design is my forte, graphic or by hand. but I also build websites.
-
@evan the smid.gen.nz server is regularly pulling in language file updates - I should see at least a lot of strings translated in reg. form
-
@marjoleink I just set my browser language to fr-fr, logged out of identica, and saw prompts in French.
-
@evan on the smid.gen.nz server?
-
@evan - hmmm - I'm seeing a *few* strings translated - only ones I did days ago. Something's wonky with the update process then, it seems.
-
@evan: will there be a dutch (nl) translation available?
-
@bjornw yes, @marjoleink has been hard at work: http://laconi.ca/translate/list.php?file_list=yes&file_id=39&page=1
-
@marjoleink it looks like only a few have been "validated". Who's the "validator" for nl?
-
@evan I'm validator but i'm mostly postponing validating until I can review consistency - it's harder to update what's validated
-
@evan, @marjoleink need some help with translating?
-
@marjoleink the automatic updater only takes validated strings.
-
@evan running into some other issues as well, like split-up sentences that should be one with a variable
-
@evan aha - that explains the lack of strings then (phew!) I'm still postponing validating unless I'm forced to to make a string stick
-
@marjoleink and I'm saying it's unnecessary. for a newbie it might matter, but newbies don't blog at new sites from foreign web cafes.
-
@tomlegg use case: newbie gets email from home - "please keep us up to date via identi.ca!"
-
@bjornw sure if you want to help! I'm almost halfway but like I said most strings not validated yet on purpose - you could start at p.4 :)
-
@marjoleink: OK, I'll have a go
-
@bjornw you can not make a string "stick" if it's the same as English or even a substring or longer word - but I can do that via validation
-
@marjoleink: I don't understand, please elaborate :)
-
@marjoleink You have a second for a convo re wiki formatting in IRC #laconica?
-
@bjornw I even ran into that trying to translate 'Bio' with 'Biografie' - it has to be validated to make it stick
-
@marjoleink: ok, I'll just try and see what happens :D
-
@tmray have you done any design for video games?
-
@beermann I dabbled a while back and tried to get a job at Ravensoft and Humanhead. but not lately. I've done flash cartoons as well
-
@conniecrosby Have you met http://ping.fm/WbA6c ?
