02:08:44 <kAlug> ChrisMorgan: Do you know any app that explicitly sets [FileWrite]:Encoding?
02:13:39 <ChrisMorgan> kAlug: no official apps do.
02:13:57 <ChrisMorgan> >>> [f for f in glob.glob('*/App/AppInfo/Launcher/*.ini') if 'Encoding' in open(f).read()]
02:13:58 <ChrisMorgan> []

02:24:09 <kAlug> ChrisMorgan: I wonder if we can drop it (unless we support some other encoding too). It seems to be from before auto-detection.
02:29:04 <ChrisMorgan> Sounds reasonable. UTF-16LE isn't valid without the BOM.
02:31:08 <kAlug> Exactly. And an ANSI file (possibly binary, like uTorrent .dat) with an initial 0xFFFE...
02:31:38 <ChrisMorgan> Not worth worrying about.
02:32:41 <kAlug> Exactly. Extremely awkward.
02:41:28 <kAlug> ChrisMorgan: What do you think about http://portableapps.com/node/29458#comment-185250 and #2 in John's comment right below?

20:03:00 <JohnTHaller> hola
20:03:35 <ZachThibeau> how's things?
20:04:09 <JohnTHaller> Not bad. Busy handling some business stuff lately. Busy updating apps at the moment. And should have another platform update out tomorrow.
20:04:34 <JohnTHaller> how about with you?
20:04:36 <ZachThibeau> nice
20:04:46 <ZachThibeau> I've been busy with crash bugs and fixing them
20:05:03 <ZachThibeau> and actually implimented PChat as a dynamic linking library as well
20:05:39 <ZachThibeau> working on stripping some functionality that would be gui related from the library but it's a start for libPChat
20:05:51 <JohnTHaller> cool
20:06:33 <ZachThibeau> yeah the idea of libPChat is to make it small but functional and also help speed things up in the long run in developing the 2.0 interface
20:08:07 <ZachThibeau> not only that an open-source emulator ssnes wants to make use of it since I mentioned it a little while ago and wants to use libPChat for a chatroom netplay setup so PChat is becoming a little more versatile
20:08:31 *** techfreak243 has quit (Quit: techfreak243)
20:13:02 <ZachThibeau> also submitted it on archlinux and well it's not entirely popular but it's getting some votes, enough votes and it makes it into archlinux community repository
20:13:25 <JohnTHaller> cool
20:14:14 <JohnTHaller> Ok, all apps that are my responsibility are updated. 3 are left. (4 including PChat)
20:14:44 <ZachThibeau> 1 last crash bug I'm working on for 1.4.3 final

20:16:58 <ZachThibeau> and it's a little tricky, it's tripping on ntdll.dll
20:17:08 <ZachThibeau> anyways I got to hit the road

21:02:35 <Simeon> hi all!
21:02:51 <JohnTHaller> hi Simeon
21:04:05 <Simeon> hi John!
21:06:25 <Simeon> Does the "we are looking for sponsors"-announcement indicate that another release is near? ;)
21:06:45 <JohnTHaller> pr5 should be up tomorrow. and final within the next few weeks.
21:07:18 <JohnTHaller> and hosting last month cost $2k more than we got in donations
21:09:08 <Simeon> ouch. I hope you can cope with that.
21:09:50 <JohnTHaller> I've been coping with it for years now. Which is why we're looking for sponsors.
21:12:07 <Simeon> then I sincerely hope you find some. Did you actively ask companies who have a bit of an open source understanding like Sourceforge, Geeknet, the usual?
21:12:52 <JohnTHaller> Starting with just the announcement on our site/facebook. Going to promote it with PR5 and a press release shortly. Will then contact companies directly.
21:14:08 <Simeon> ok. any news on the drupal update?
21:14:43 <JohnTHaller> Gonna give it another shot in the next week or so
21:15:36 <Simeon> ok. sorry for nailing you with questions - Havent been around a lot lately.
21:15:55 <JohnTHaller> no worries. been busy
