[07:16] <sabmoc> anyone awake?
[09:05] <froud> African Greetings
[09:06] <Kinnison> froud.
[09:06] <froud> morning enrico
[09:06] <froud> Kinnison: hi
[09:06] <froud> OK, ideas wanted dudes
[09:06] <Kinnison> What does that mean for you?
[09:07] <Kinnison> (being capped)
[09:07] <froud> I have done docs for Ubuntu Update Manager
[09:09] <froud> Kinnison: yeah Telscum cap the DSL when you pass 3GB
[09:09] <froud> Kinnison: slllllllllllllllllllllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww mooooooooooooooooooooooooooottttttttion
[09:09] <froud> Now Update Manager has moved to gnome cvs
[09:09] <froud> problem is I documented it on Ubuntu
[09:10] <froud> question, how to keep the doc Ubuntu specific and neutral for GNOME
[09:11] <froud> ouch did anyone get what I just wrote?
[09:11] <sabmoc> would someone like to help me get started on working with the doc team?
[09:11] <froud> sabmoc: sure
[09:11] <sabmoc> ok, let me tell you where and what I am
[09:11] <froud> OK
[09:12] <sabmoc> I've read all the wiki pages on the docteam and howtogetstartedblahblahblah. I have used cvs but not svn yet. Dont think that should be too difficult.
[09:12] <sabmoc> I have read parts of the DocBook guide
[09:12] <froud> easy stuff
[09:12] <froud> good
[09:13] <sabmoc> I would like to learn more DocBook, and help the doc team if I can.
[09:13] <froud> good
[09:13] <sabmoc> That is all.
[09:13] <froud> what would you like to know next
[09:13] <sabmoc> hmm.. where do I start? Have any tasks that need taskers?
[09:14] <sabmoc> taskee's?
[09:14] <froud> well we are about to tag for release
[09:14] <sabmoc> yes, but I think that a good thing
[09:14] <froud> so not much writing is happening.
[09:14] <sabmoc> ah ok
[09:14] <froud> yes
[09:14] <froud> however, you should look at the following documents
[09:15] <sabmoc> This way I will see the breazy release from start to finish
[09:15] <froud> and see how you can contribute for the next release 
[09:15] <sabmoc> froud, will I need to actually run the unstable release? 
[09:15] <froud> look at User Guide, Admin Guide
[09:16] <froud> are you running Hoary now
[09:16] <sabmoc> yes, but when breazy comes out I dont plan to switch until it is very near release.
[09:16] <froud> next release is grumpy, no?
[09:17] <froud> then comes breazy
[09:17] <sabmoc> Oh!
[09:17] <sabmoc> ok, well s/breazy/grumpy/;
[09:17] <froud> Well same diff
[09:17] <froud> normally, yes you run the next release from the devel 
[09:18] <sabmoc> froud, hmm.. 
[09:18] <froud> however, not everything in those guides will require changes
[09:18] <froud> to grumpy
[09:18] <froud> one place to look if you want to stay on hoary is the FAQ Guide
[09:19] <sabmoc> Im sort of planning to buy another computer, maybe if I do then Ill install grumpy, but otherwise I really need a stable desktop.
[09:20] <froud> it is currently at warty
[09:20] <froud> and needs updaating to hoary
[09:20] <froud> I believe that Corey was gonna look at that
[09:20] <froud> he is not here now
[09:20] <froud> however, the last meeting notes will give you an idea
[09:20] <sabmoc> The notes are posted to the mailing list?
[09:21] <sabmoc> The notes are posted to the mailing list?
[09:21] <froud> sorry i may disappear and reappear
[09:21] <sabmoc> I noticed :)
[09:21] <froud> my line has been capped
[09:21] <sabmoc> Thats strange, what does that mean, upload limits?
[09:22] <froud> I would start looking at all the docs and thinking what I can and want to do
[09:23] <sabmoc> Ok :)
[09:24] <froud> Kinnison:  arrrrrg this is what it means for me ;-(
[09:24] <sabmoc> heh
[09:24] <sabmoc> poor guy
[09:24] <Kinnison> froud: Oh dear
[09:24] <sabmoc> get a new provider
[09:24] <froud> poor South Africa
[09:24] <Kinnison> just waiting for the regrade to complete
[09:25] <froud> lemme see if I can find a server on which I can get a shell
[09:26] <froud> sabmoc: in co.za it is all the same
[09:26] <sabmoc> froud, ok thank you for the information. So basically just read the current documents and wait for the next cycle to begin. I can do that. :)
[09:27] <sabmoc> froud, that is most unfortunate :(
[09:27] <froud> whats the command to run bitchx again
[09:29] <sabmoc> it is `xchat`
[09:29] <sabmoc> for me, at least..
[09:29] <froud> sabmoc: yes, you can give patches on the docs I mentioned
[09:29] <sabmoc> where do I send them?
[09:29] <sabmoc> let me guess
[09:29] <sabmoc> as attachments to mailing list?
[09:30] <froud> yep
[09:30] <sabmoc> kk
[09:30] <sabmoc> anything else?
[09:30] <sabmoc> Actually, thats enough.
[09:30] <froud> BitchX is one of the most well-known IRC clients for the text console. It originated from ircii. It offers a lot of possibilities and settings.
[09:31] <sabmoc> froud, thanks goodnight
[09:31] <froud> aaaarg non of those hosts have bitchx
[09:31] <froud> sabmoc: my pleasure
[09:31] <froud> welcome
[09:31] <froud> to
[09:31] <froud> the
[09:32] <froud> docteam

[08:44] <Burgundavia> Unfortunately, I live in a room in a house, and thus have no place to put you up
[08:46] <sabmoc> How many people usually show up?
[08:46] <Burgundavia> ~20-30
[08:46] <sabmoc> sounds really fun
[08:48] <sabmoc> I'll have to think of where I would stay, since it would have to be an overnight trip for me, and I would have to get from Nanaimo to uvic, probably bus it.
[08:49] <Burgundavia> sabmoc: Nanaimo to Vic by bus (ouch, I have done that once)
[08:50] <sabmoc> hahaha
[08:50] <Burgundavia> sabmoc: right
[08:50] <Burgundavia> sabmoc: about that getting out more

[08:51] <mdke> that's so cool
[08:52] <Burgundavia> have to counteract the european influence you know

[08:53] <mdke> but you're an active member of the ubuntu community
[08:53] <Burgundavia> I guess you could say that
[08:54] <sabmoc> Burgundavia, how much does the ferry to Nanaimo cost?
[08:55] <Burgundavia> 10, 5 if student
[08:55] <Burgundavia> each way
[08:55] <Burgundavia> from bcferries.com
[08:55] <sabmoc> Actually I meant with a vehicle
[08:55] <Burgundavia> more
[08:56] <Burgundavia> 31.25 each wa
[08:56] <Burgundavia> s/wa/way
[08:56] <Burgundavia> plus driver
[08:57] <sabmoc> so 72.50, plus about 35 for the Gibsons ferry, plus gas food and hotel. hmm
[08:57] <Burgundavia> hmm
[08:57] <sabmoc> ouch
[08:57] <sabmoc> haha
[08:58] <Burgundavia> it doesn't have an airport, does it?
[08:59] <sabmoc> I'll check the rates for a float plane, next to where I work is a float airline
[08:59] <Burgundavia> ah
[08:59] <Burgundavia> going to be more
[08:59] <sabmoc> they've given me free rides before
[08:59] <sabmoc> maybe we can work something out
[09:01] <sabmoc> Its funny that I've never been to Vancouver Island, yet I've been all over BC's interior.
[09:02] <Burgundavia> what do you do as a day job?
[09:02] <sabmoc> I used to fix photocopiers for sharp, but now I am in a transition taking over the family business from my father. We own a restaurant.
[09:02] <Burgundavia> ah
[09:03] <sabmoc> So basically Im a cook.
[09:03] <Burgundavia> I am currently enjoying being unemployed
[09:03] <Burgundavia> left my job about 2 weeks ago
[09:03] <sabmoc> Burgundavia, lucky bugger
[09:03] <Burgundavia> used to work for www.microserve.ca
[09:03] <Burgundavia> doing windows crap
[09:03] <sabmoc> ah cool
[09:03] <sabmoc> Burgundavia, I worked for Stream in Chiliwack for a while doing tech support
[09:04] <sabmoc> Burgundavia, are you going to school right now?
[09:04] <Burgundavia> went to CDI
[09:04] <Burgundavia> I was hired straight out of CDI last Sept
[09:04] <Burgundavia> was kind of nice
[09:04] <sabmoc> Burgundavia, wow
[09:05] <Burgundavia> then I realized that I was killing myself doing the job
[09:05] <sabmoc> Burgundavia, what did you take at cdi?
[09:05] <Burgundavia> and wasn't having much fun doing it
[09:05] <Burgundavia> network and internet security specialist
[09:05] <Burgundavia> basically msce+security
[09:05] <Burgundavia> thought I don't have the certs
[09:05] <sabmoc> Burgundavia, nice, you're not going to believe this but I went to CDI for a short time as well.
[09:06] <Burgundavia> what did you take?
[09:06] <sabmoc> Burgundavia, I didnt like it though, I was taking programming.
[09:06] <Burgundavia> hmm
[09:06] <Burgundavia> ya
[09:06] <Burgundavia> they only teach m$ stuff
[09:06] <sabmoc> I droped out before the student loans went though the roof
[09:06] <mdke> lol@list
[09:07] <mdke> "bug first, then email"
[09:08] <sabmoc> Burgundavia, maybe you had desent teachers but when I was there all I did was read, there was almost no personal instruction going on at all, and I just figured why pay for this when I can do it myself for free.
[09:08] <Burgundavia> I didn't get much is the way of personal stuff
[09:08] <Burgundavia> but I did quite well
[09:08] <sabmoc> thats cool
[09:08] <Burgundavia> the instructor really really knew his stuff through
[09:08] <Burgundavia> though
[09:09] <Burgundavia> that helped
[09:09] <sabmoc> in hind site I probably should have finished it, just for the sake of finishing
[09:09] <Burgundavia> hey, water over the dam
[09:10] <sabmoc> our instructor had her own software company and was making a killing on some contracts, i dont think she really cared about her teaching job but its tuff to find qualified programmers willing to teach.
[09:11] <sabmoc> Burgundavia, yeah, doesnt really matter, I've taken a few classes at BCIT and Im taking another one next term.
[09:11] <Burgundavia> cdi pays like shit too
[09:12] <sabmoc> Burgundavia, probably, they have to finance to advertisments somehow.
[09:12] <sabmoc> s/to/those/;
[09:15] <sabmoc> oh no, gmail is down
[09:16] <Burgundavia> sabmoc: no, its not
[09:16] <Burgundavia> sabmoc: however, it was down for me
[09:16] <Burgundavia> sabmoc: I suspect rolling server outages
