[14:04] <balloons> dholbach, 2 mins mate :-0
[14:08] <balloons> kk
[14:16] <vibhav> jono: there?
[14:38] <jono> mhall119, hey
[14:38] <jono> mhall119, can you follow up on the thread on the accomplishments mailing list re. server issues
[14:39] <mhall119> jono: reading them now
[14:39] <jono> thanks mhall119
[14:50] <jono> thanks mhall119
[14:50] <jono> I saw your response
[14:52] <vibhav> jono: http://www.thevarguy.com/2012/12/17/canonical-supplies-new-tools-for-linux-evangelists/
[14:52] <jono> vibhav, yeah, I saw that :-)
[14:53] <jcastro_> Canonical Supplies new tools for budding lead guitarists.
[14:53] <vibhav> heh
[14:53] <jcastro_> whoops, sorry, wrong waking-fantasy!
[14:53] <vibhav> jono: You are in charge of the Ubuntu social media channels, right?
[14:54] <jono> jcastro_, lol
[14:54] <jono> vibhav, not really in charge
[14:54] <jono> lots of people have access to different channels
[14:55] <vibhav> jono: ah, I thought if some promotion for the Ubuntu Development social media channels could help.
[14:55] <jono> vibhav, I did that yesterday
[14:56] <balloons> dholbach, it was doing so well
[14:56] <jono> promoted it across facebook, g+ and twitter
[14:56] <dholbach> balloons, can't! hear! you!
[14:56] <balloons> new record 350 mins!
[14:56] <balloons> err 50 mins
[14:56] <dholbach> balloons, can you imagine we did 24h? :)
[14:56] <vibhav> jono: right now?
[14:56] <balloons> it's been dying like that much sooner normally
[14:56] <dholbach> balloons, but the good thing is: we got through almost all we wanted to talk about
[14:56] <balloons> jibel tells me to kill pulse, it's a pulse thing
[14:56] <dholbach> ah, I had no idea
[14:56] <dholbach> balloons, let's discuss the rest via email
[14:57] <balloons> lol
[14:57] <balloons> you left as I got back in
[14:57] <balloons> haha
[14:57] <balloons> sure
[14:57] <dholbach> perfect
[14:57] <dholbach> and I'll just quickly take the dog for a walk before it's completely dark again - winter over here is a depressing affair
[14:57] <balloons> basically yes, we should have more and include both
[14:57] <dholbach> perfect, what I was thinking as well :)
[14:57] <balloons> yes, sorry for that thing called winter
[14:58] <dholbach> was it your idea? :-)
[14:58] <dholbach> it's not 16:00 yet and it's getting dark already
[14:58] <jcastro_> it gets dark fast over here too
[14:58] <dholbach> but yeah, I could live in the North of Norway and it'd be dark all the time - I get it, I stop complaining
[14:58] <dholbach> :-)
[14:58] <jcastro_> it looks depressing outside
[14:58] <dholbach> brb, see you in a bit
[14:59] <jono> vibhav, eh?
[14:59] <balloons> dholbach, I don't know how people do the 6 months darkness thing
[14:59] <vibhav> jono: Never mind :)
[14:59] <balloons> alaska is similar
[15:00] <vibhav> jono: Also, would including the packaging guide (or links) in the ADK make sense?
[15:01] <jono> vibhav, I am not sure if it fits within the context of advocacy
[15:02] <jono> although I would like to have some content about how LoCo teams can participate in normal Ubuntu contributions
[15:02] <jono> brb, call
[15:29] <jcastro_> hey guys, it's charles profitt's bday today if you want to wish him a happy one!
[15:30] <IdleOne> happy birthday cprofitt \o/
[15:32] <vibhav> happy birthday cprofitt
[15:33] <vibhav> cprofitt: May you worst enemy be attacked by an angry gerbil :)
[15:40] <rrnwexec> good morning community folks :)
[15:46] <jono> mhall119, is the ubuntu django theme unmaintained?
[15:46] <jono> cprofitt, happy birthday!
[15:46] <jono> mhall119, for context: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-accomplishments-web/+bug/1090132
[15:46] <ubot2`> Launchpad bug 1090132 in Ubuntu Accomplishments Web Gallery "Update navigation" [Medium,In progress]

[15:56] * imbrandon is a 1978 Model
[15:56] <mhall119> jono: it is, but the Canonical theme keeps changing
[15:56] <cjohnston> imbrandon: I think his is the 22nd
[15:56] <imbrandon> ahh
[15:58] <balloons> bon anniversaire cprofitt!
[16:00] <jono> mhall119, gotcha
[16:00] <jono> mhall119, dholbach, dpm, jcastro_, balloons setting up the hangout
[16:00] <jcastro_> ok!~
[16:00] <dholbach> cool
[16:00] <jono> mhall119, dholbach, dpm, jcastro_, balloons invitation sent
[16:02] <JoseeAntonioR> dholbach: here I am!
[16:02] <dpm> jono, joining in a sec
[16:02] <dholbach> JoseeAntonioR, in a call - but let's chat after it :)
[16:02] <JoseeAntonioR> sure :)
[16:25] <cprofitt> jono: thanks
[16:25] <cprofitt> imbrandon: I am actually the 22nd, but today is close enough
[16:28] <czajkowski> jono: do you still need to be an admin on the approved locoteams team on LP ?
[16:42] <AlanBell> so whats with the "hey we are going to start maintaining Unity" announcement?
[16:44] <balloons> AlanBell, what do you mean?
[16:45] <AlanBell> this http://bregmatter.wordpress.com/2012/12/19/canonical-targets-unity-shell-maintenance-for-13-04/
[16:45] <balloons> lol, yes.. but what's the question?
[16:46] <AlanBell> well it is a curious thing, I thought Canonical was already maintaining unity
[16:47] <balloons> AlanBell, yes, if you read the post that has been the case
[16:49] <balloons> and indeed, they have even held focused sprints at points in the last 2 cycles specifically to work on established bits
[16:49] <balloons> I guess the point is they wanted to highlight the fact there is a team of people working all the time on making sure the current feature set is in good shape every release
[16:50] <AlanBell> hmm, ok, I thought it was backports, but it is about 13.04 and it wasn't obvious what exactly the difference is, if anything
[16:50] <balloons> from the post, it seems some folks had the perspective that the unity team was primarily focused on landing new features every cycle and ignoring the current stuff (bugs, etc)
[16:51] <AlanBell> so it is kind of an internal reorganisation, a dotted line moved on an org chart or something
[17:11] <dholbach> jono, Installed-Size: [-27006-] {+13978+}
[17:11] <dholbach> not too bad, eh? :)
[17:13] <JoseeAntonioR> dpm: ping
[17:14] <dholbach> dpm, if you've still got time we can chat a bit
[17:15] <jono> dholbach, nice! :)
[17:15] <dholbach> err sorry, JoseeAntonioR - if you've still got time we can chat a bit
[17:15] <dholbach> :-)
[17:16] <JoseeAntonioR> dholbach: I have!
[17:16] <dholbach> fantastic
[17:16] <JoseeAntonioR> just give me a sec so I can restart xchat, I have 1.3s of lag
[17:16] <dholbach> really? you restart for 1.3s of lag?
[17:17] <dholbach> it just means that message might take a second to arrive in your client :)
[17:18] <JoseeAntonioR> dholbach: I do, I usually have 0.1 or 0.2
[17:18] <dholbach> ok, I'm not going to stop you
[17:18] <dholbach> :-)
[17:18] <JoseeAntonioR> it's already done and changed 1.3 to 0.3, so :)
[17:19] <dholbach> so from a quick glance at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDeveloperWeek/Timetable who do you think we should still get on there?
[17:20] <dholbach> the sessions about working with Debian (and/or Upstream) were always good I thought
[17:20] <dholbach> maybe we could rope in Laney or tumbleweed for one of those, even if it's just 30m
[17:20] <JoseeAntonioR> yes, maybe something about how to forward upstream patches
[17:20] <dholbach> exactly
[17:20] <JoseeAntonioR> and yep, we still have one 30-min slot in tue
[17:20] <dholbach> and when to get something straight into Ubuntu as opposed to forwarding it
[17:21] <dpm> JoseeAntonioR, dholbach pong
[17:21] <dholbach> dpm, sorry, unping
[17:21] <dholbach> I was a bit distracted for a bit earlier :)
[17:21] <dpm> unpong then :)
[17:21] <JoseeAntonioR> dpm: I'm forwarding you the email I sent before OpenWeek to instructor, what I did is I created a mailing list and then sent the email
[17:23] <dholbach> JoseeAntonioR, I'm also going to ask the nexus7 people to give a session
[17:23] <dholbach> anyone else we should put on our hitlist?
[17:23] <dpm> JoseeAntonioR, thanks. Is this to be used for the app developer week?
[17:23] <JoseeAntonioR> dpm: yep, you can just change the timetable
[17:23] <JoseeAntonioR> dholbach: maybe the new unity fixing team to explain community collaboration?
[17:23] <dpm> JoseeAntonioR, great, thanks!
[17:24] <JoseeAntonioR> sure :)
[17:24] <dholbach> JoseeAntonioR, sure that might work
[17:25] <dholbach> JoseeAntonioR, I'll also send another reminder to ubuntu-devel@ so whoever is running an initiative to get something done has a chance to give it some more exposure
[17:25] <JoseeAntonioR> dholbach: are we using on-air this time? if yes, instructors need to have at least some experience with it (learned that from openweek)
[17:26] <dholbach> JoseeAntonioR, once we have the schedule lined up we can ask who's interested in using on-air
[17:26] <JoseeAntonioR> had someone who planned a 5 mins session for one hour
[17:27] <dholbach> but for UDW it's usually a bit less as most folks like IRC and a place where they can copy/paste, but yeah we should offer it
[17:27] <JoseeAntonioR> maybe we should have another devel and youth session, to encourage more young people
[17:27] <JoseeAntonioR> and someone from the u1 team
[17:28] <dholbach> do you know who'd be a good candidate for a youth team session? Bilal maybe?
[17:28] <JoseeAntonioR> yep, same as last time
[17:29] <dholbach> cool - do you want to ask him? I can then try to ask the U1 team and the others we mentioned above
[17:29] <JoseeAntonioR> yeah, sure
[17:29] <dholbach> sweet
[17:29] <dholbach> that should give us a few folks to talk to
[17:30] <dholbach> thanks a bunch JoseeAntonioR
[17:30] <JoseeAntonioR> should be enough, I think
[17:30] <dholbach> let's chat tomorrow again and see how things are going
[17:30] <JoseeAntonioR> no problem, dholbach :)
[17:31] <JoseeAntonioR> sure!
[17:31] <JoseeAntonioR> go and rest now
[17:31] <dholbach> balloons, next dates for https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/AutomatedTesting/Hackfest figured out - yeehaw!
[17:31] <dholbach> JoseeAntonioR, in a bit, just sending out a couple of mails first
[17:31] <dholbach> then I'll meet some friends and go to a CouchSurfer meeting here in Berlin :)
[17:32] <JoseeAntonioR> cool!
[17:36] <vibhav> maybe I should hold a UDW session too
[17:37] <dholbach> vibhav, or you can always do it together with somebody else
[17:37] <dholbach> maybe demo how to prepare a simple merge or something like that
[17:37] <dholbach> and maybe just half an hour - as you like it
[17:37] <vibhav> dholbach: the UDD or the non-UDD way
[17:38] <dholbach> as you like it
[17:38] <vibhav> We could discuss this + the DAT too
[17:38] <dholbach> we could talk about the d-a-t but as it's not a very public facing team or something where we plan to get many people involved I'm not sure how interesting it would be
[17:39] <vibhav> Indeed
[17:39] <dholbach> I could mention it in the introduction though
[17:39] <vibhav> So merges can be a simple topic
[17:39] <vibhav> dholbach: How do I add myself to the schedule?
[17:39] <dholbach> yeah, the more practical the sessions are, the better, I guess
[17:39] <dholbach> vibhav, just edit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDeveloperWeek/Timetable
[17:39] <dholbach> no special protocol :)
[17:39] <dholbach> I'm subscribed to the page, so I'll get an email
[17:40] <vibhav> good
[17:41] <vibhav> I'll do that once Im sure if I can
[17:41] <vibhav> Alright friends, good night!
[17:42] <dholbach> take care vibhav!
[17:42] <vibhav> :)
[17:43] <dholbach> all right, time for me to call it a day too
[17:43] <dholbach> see you all around!

[22:27] <balloons> jcastro_, why does "tag subscriptions" take me to stack exchange on askubuntu?
[22:28] <balloons> and secondly, is there a way to "watch" for specific questions -- get emailed or pinged when they occur?
[23:18] <jcastro_> yeah
[23:18] <jcastro_> balloons: you hover over the tag to subscribe to it
[23:18] <mhall119> balloons: you can subscribe to an RSS feed per tag
[23:24] <balloons> gotcha
