Burgundaviahello07:11
sabmochi07:11
sabmocBurgundavia, is there a place to submit howto's and stuff? 07:13
Burgundaviawhat do you mean?07:23
Burgundaviathe wiki?07:23
sabmocI mean for more than just wiki, does ubuntu collect howtos or just the standard documentation listed on the docteam wiki.07:23
trickiesabmoc, i guess the best option would be if you could write a howto in docbook format07:26
trickiesabmoc, then it can be transformed into wiki markup, or added into existing documentation in the SVN repos07:27
trickiebut straight onto the wiki is another option07:27
sabmocwell I just wrote a little howto on the wiki earlier today before work07:27
trickieor post a link to the ubuntu-doc mailinglist07:27
sabmocOk, I'll do that07:28
trickiecool. Maybe post what it is about to the mailinglist07:28
trickie:)07:28
sabmocits not very useful, but you never know07:28
trickieeverything helps07:28
trickieI find that it takes a few small things for me to get comfortable with contributing to a team07:29
sabmocheh, sometimes nothing helps :D07:29
sabmocyes, I kind of joined during a slow period between releases.07:30
trickiei reckon for the kind of thing the doc team is doing even a start is good07:30
Burgundaviaafter hoary releases, I am going to be working on getting lots of good, small howtos together07:30
trickieotherwise noone may do it07:30
sabmocI actually like documenting 07:31
trickieBurgundavia, there is a wealth of small things in the wiki... it keeps getting bigger07:31
sabmocBurgundavia, you can add this if you want it https://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/GPGsigningforSSHHowTo07:31
Burgundaviathat is kind of stuff I want to add to docbook stuff07:33
sabmocok, that will give me a chance to brush up on docbook07:34
trickiethat would be good for adding to the admin guide07:34
sabmocreally? cool07:35
trickiedo you know how to checkout the docteam repos?07:35
sabmocI I haven't done it yet 07:37
sabmocbut its not a problem07:37
trickiecool, the admin guide is there already, Sean has added a bit of content, but the structure is not 100% defined yet07:38
sabmocoh ok, I was looking at the html version and I noticed it was kind of empty. I asumed that the svn was full of content and the html just hadn't been updated07:39
trickieno, it will not be ready for Hoary07:39
sabmocaww :(07:39
sabmocits looks really cool07:39
sabmocit likely to make it in for warty?07:40
sabmocor uh, whatever the name of the next release will be..07:40
trickieYeah! i hope to work on it soon... it would be great 07:40

sabmocBurgundavia, omg08:02
sabmocI even read that email08:02
=== sabmoc slaps his forehead and says "doh"
Burgundavialol08:03
Burgundaviathere was a lot of confusion regarding the name08:03
Burgundaviawiki still says grumpy a lot of the time08:03
Burgundaviathere was talk of a sid-style rolling unstable as well08:03
Burgundaviathat was going to be called grumpy08:04
BurgundaviaI don't know what ever came of that08:04
sabmocwell I was under the impression that grumpy was next and then breezy after that08:05
sabmocbut that email is pretty clear, and I think breezy makes for a better choice08:05
Burgundaviano mention of having a rolling unstable in it though08:07
Burgundaviawhat I heard came directly from marks mouth in Mataro08:08
