<B>LIST IS STILL IN PROGRESS</B>
 
<b>List is in no particular order</b>
 
<b>[[Simple_Citation | Simple Citation]]</b>
* Localized the extension to Bahasa Melayu (Malay)
** Language used widely in Malaysia, Singapore, and other south east Asian countries
 
 
<b>[[CSS_guide | CSS Guide]]</b>
* Completed documentation for
**[[CSS_GUIDE_VERTICAL_ALIGN | CSS Vertical-Align]]
** [[CSS_GUIDE_BACKGROUND_REPEAT | background-repeat]]
** [[CSS_GUIDE_-MOZ-OPACITY | -moz-opacity]]
 
 
<b>[[Delta_debugging_framework#Project_Task_List | Delta Debugging]]</b>
* Documenting source code
** Starting off with:
*** [[svn.pl]] and [[makewrapper.pl]] - <b>DONE</b> (Reflects the comments [[User:RichardChu|Richard Chu]] made after my first submission)
*** Documented and changed Update subroutine in svn.pl to allow users to use BASE, COMMITTED, PREV to update
*** My old comments about svn.pl
**** For <b>Update</b> subroutine
***** Shouldn't users also be allowed to use BASE, COMMITTED, PREV to update?
***** Currently, subroutine only allows these revision values: HEAD and numbers
***** Currently you allow svn update command to perform even if file is not defined, shouldn't it disallow svn update to perform if file is undefined?
*** [[User:RichardChu|Richard Chu]]:
**** The users should probably be able to use those revision keywords. And it is a really minor change to allow that subroutine to allow those keywords.
**** I'm pretty sure the svn update command will perform even though no file is defined.
** Then, files in the Test directory: - <b>IN PROGRESS</b>
*** Test.pm, TestCase.pm, TestSuite.pm, TestResult.pm, and TestRunner.pm
*Advised project leader on licensing
<h2 style="marginb>[[XULRunner_Guide | XUL Runner Guide]]</b>* Went over the Hello World tutorial, commented it and several ways to improve it:** [[Talk:How_to_do_a_Hello_World_application_using_XULRunner | Comments on the tutorial and a several things to improve it]]** [[User:0;backgroundmylau | Mike Lau]] made a new tutorial reflecting some of the comments -color[[How_to_make_a_Hello_World_application_using_XULRunner|How to make a Hello World application using XULRunner]]* Looked into automating the task for Wiki to PDF conversion.** This task is such a challenge. I've looked into most of the sites that explain about how converting wiki to PDF could be done. ** Most of the solutions entail embedding php code in the settings file etc. Not the solution that [[User:Mylau | Mike Lau]] is looking for.** Most of the extensions for this task are either broken or for sysadmins, and I was on the verge of giving up looking for an easy solution to this task.*** Downloaded and installed WikiPDF, a Mediawiki extension. Only for sysadmins.**** http://sourceforge.net/projects/wikipdf*** Found this, but it's broken: If you just want to make a PDF file from a Wikipedia article, go to: http:#fcfcfc;font//wiki.auf-sizetrag.de/ ** [[User:Robcee|Rob Campbell]] recommended this: http:120%;font-weight//mediawiki.blender.org/index.php/Meta/Wiki_to_PDF*** Will try this out** [[User:bold;borderdwwoodsi|Dean Woodside]] also provided some links that I haven't gone over thoroughly, but at a glance, it looks like it's only for sysadmin*** http:1px solid #ccc;text//mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/2005-alignApril/004456.html*** http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Alternative_parsers** Wiki 2 PDF discussion*** http:left;color//wiki.splitbrain.org/wiki:#000;paddingdiscussion:0exporting_pdf** I'm highly interested in taking on the role of getting Wiki 2 PDF working for our wiki. However, this task is impeded by my hectic schedule.2em 0I've spoken to Dave Humphrey and will look into this task after exams.4em; paddingFurthermore, we don't have access to zenit.  <b>[[Bug_Triage_Extension | Bug Triage Extension]]</b>* Will be testing this extension on Dec 10 2006* Created a bug for Buggy Bar!! ** Check it out -[[Talk:Bug_Triage_Extension | The buggy bug!]]** For some reason it wouldn't allow me to upload png files  <b>[[Extending_the_Buildbot | Extending the Buildbot]]</b>* CSS for the Buildbot** http://hera.senecac.on.ca:9205** Put together a css file with the rightcolor combinations, alignments, padding, font, borders etc.** Approved by [[User:bhearsum | Ben Hearsum]] after a few attempts at it  <b>[[Club_Moz | Club Moz]]</b> * Collaborated with [[User:Themystic | Tom Aratyn]], [[User:Bhearsum | Ben Hearsum]], [[User:Vpmirand|Vanessa Miranda]] and [[User:Pcvitori|Philip Vitorino]] in hosting Hack Day** The aim of this event was to provide a common place for students to work on their Open Source projects and also for them to practice the meaning of Open Source ** Students were also well-0fed with junk food!!* Read about it: [http://elichak.4em;"wordpress.com Hack Day!]  <b>Contributions[[Mozilla%40Seneca_Wiki_Administration | Mozilla Seneca Wiki Administration]]</h2b>* Took care of this Wiki  <b>[[SVN| SVN at a glance]]</b>* Wrote a proper documentation on how to use SVN to put all the commonly used commands for our DPS909 projects in one place.
