mhzjsgotangco: Madpilot I know you are subscibed to DYI. What's your opinion on the fact that many material designed to promote Ubuntu is not being designed with free formats, but we do spread freedom of IT?04:47
jsgotangcomaterials not in free formats?04:48
jsgotangcolike what?04:48
mhz The latest promotional leaflet in pdf or source. (Oct 05)04:48
mhzhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/DIYMarketing04:49
jsgotangcowell there's really a good reason for that04:49
mhz?04:49
jsgotangcoif its in source, you'd want full bleed/full resolution materials04:49
jsgotangcoand most printers only accept something like illustrator format04:49
mhzhmmmmm04:49
mhzyes04:49
jsgotangcoits a necessary evil04:50
jsgotangconow if printers accepted  inkscape or scribus files that would be a breakthrough...04:50
mhzbut doesn't that also spread a contradictory message?04:50
mhzAFAIK, all printers do accept PDF04:51
jsgotangconot really, unless youre Richarch Stallman04:51
mhzhehehe04:51
mhzbut, in Ubuntu, how do you open an Illustrator file?04:52
jsgotangcono idea really04:52
mhzsee my point?04:52
mhzI have looked up04:52
mhzso far, none04:52
jsgotangcoif the templates are in illustrator for example, it means its already ready for print right?04:52
mhzyes04:52
mhzbut the point is04:52
mhzwe promote freedom of access04:53
jsgotangcobut if you did something from scratch, let's say in inkscape, your best shot is to send it to the printers in hires pdf04:53
mhzfreedom of access is opossed to promoting propietary formats04:53
jsgotangcolike i said its a necessary evil, your printers dont even give a damn on the freedom thing if it borks their business in my opinion04:53
mhzhehehehehe04:53
mhzhm, I think this is something we need to analyze in deeper cases04:54
jsgotangcoit needs to be two way though, not just us pushing...04:55
mhzI think designers should be aware that they are contributing to a community that sprads the word of freedom04:55
mhzif we dont' push, then who will?04:56
mhzif not now, then when?04:56
jsgotangcoi'm not going to be suckered into a debate in the middle of work04:57
jsgotangcohehe04:57
mhzif freedom of access were not an issue here or were not one of the very basic concepts in the manifesto, then, I'd understand04:57
mhzjsgotangco: sorry, I get carriied away04:58
mhzesp. when something feels not consequent with manifesto04:58
jsgotangcowell you can post that concern in -sounder i'm sure it'll be a lively chat04:58
mhzsounder?05:01
mhzoh, #ubuntu-sounder05:03
mhzwhat's that channel for?05:03

jsgotangcosure04:46
jsgotangco(sorry if i wasn't active lately)04:46
jjesseno worries from me figured you were busy :)04:46
jjessewhat would break if for kubuntu docs we dropped the k in front of the docs (question riddell asked)04:46
jjessei would assume it would just be the makefile that needed to be changed?04:47
jjesseso kquickguide would be quickguide?04:47
jsgotangcoyes that's correct04:47
jsgotangcoour kubuntu docs don't point to anything else at the moment04:47
jsgotangcoall of them are self sustaining with the exception of the entities04:48
jjesseok, he sent me an email asking about them, i'll forward it on to the doc list, but i figured that it would only break the make file04:48
RiddellI'd also like to change the makefile target names, they're currently very cryptic04:49
jjessegrin didn't know you were lurking here04:49
jsgotangcoso the makefiles will have the khelpcenter templates as well?04:52
jjessehmm let me forward the email that started this if that is alright Riddell 04:54
