| [00:23] <dhillon-v10> Rocket2DMn: Hi, how are you | |
| [02:37] <dhillon-v10> j1mc: hi | |
| [02:44] <dhillon-v10> guys is anyone here | |
| [02:46] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: I am, relaxing atm. | |
| [02:46] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: How are you | |
| [02:48] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: Oh, ok. Just finished my wiki page, almost done. I been doing a large overhaul to the backup documentation. Still need to clean up some formatting, but the content is sound. | |
| [02:49] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: If your interested > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/TAR | |
| [02:50] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: Alright, that's a good resource, you are smart :) | |
| [02:50] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: how you been? Found a place to pitch in? | |
| [02:51] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: Yah, with you guys helping I am modifying wikis, and looking forward to update parts of system guide | |
| [02:51] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: Naw not really, wiki editing isn't that hard. Not like programming, it's mostly text and markup. | |
| [02:55] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: I wanna konw a good place for solving bugs related to pulseaudio and other sound problems | |
| [03:03] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: hey i gotta go thanks and talk to you later :) | |
| [04:53] <ffffffffff> if a community wiki page appears to be a duplicate, do i need to log a bug in addition to tagging the page? | |
| [04:54] <starcraftman> ffffffffff: not to my knowledge, I just usually tag them as duplicate and await moderation. Also be sure to comment at the top a link to suspected duplicate. | |
| [04:55] <ffffffffff> thanks "starcraftman" | |
| [04:55] <starcraftman> ffffffffff: no problem, new member? Haven't seen ya round before. Interesting choice for nick also. | |
| [04:57] <ffffffffff> no i'm just unemployed | |
| [04:57] <ffffffffff> also i chose this nickname to make it hard to type | |
| [04:58] <starcraftman> ffffffffff: Why would it be hard to type? IRC has autocomplete, two ff and a tab. | |
| [04:58] <starcraftman> Well, plenty of wiki pages to clean up, thanks for your participation. | |

| [20:38] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: hi | |
| [20:41] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: 'lo dhillon-v10 | |
| [20:41] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: how are you | |
| [20:41] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: good, just assembled large shelving unit. | |
| [20:42] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: Are you a member of ubuntu, I mean do you have an email address like [email protected] | |
| [20:47] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: No not yet, I likely ought apply sometime. I've been around quite a while. Maybe later in the year, I should get testimonials before. | |
| [20:48] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: I have been editing wikis and such but how long do I have to wait to apply for that | |
| [20:49] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: There's not set amount of time. Applications are considered by a board of members and approved or not on a case by case merit based on contribution. | |
| [20:49] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: Every person contributes different, so varies. See here > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership | |
| [20:50] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: Oh I don't think I have any of that merit so I shouldn't apply :) | |
| [20:50] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: Ideally, you should have made a sustained contribution to a field over several months, like ubuntu forums, wiki editing, or programming, bug triage, etc... In addition, on your homepage wiki it's advisable to get testimonials from people you work with (like the leads of teams your in). | |
| [20:51] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: anyway, see the page for best explanation. | |
| [20:51] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: thanks for your advice, I will learn more and try | |
| [20:52] <starcraftman> dhillon-v10: no problem, it doesn't really confer any magic status. It's more symbolic than anything, I certainly don't edit wiki pages and support in the forums just for an ubuntu email. | |
| [20:52] <dhillon-v10> starcraftman: Neither do I but it certainly looks cool :) | |
