| nixternal | yup | 01:34 |
|---|---|---|
| nixternal | and jenda is in here as well...im sure he has ran his "SpreadUbuntu" campaign past all of you!!! | 01:35 |
| kwwii | :-) | 01:35 |
| nixternal | any of you create any posters yet? | 01:35 |
| kwwii | btw. kubuntu also has stickers like the ubuntu ones, as well as padded stickers, and more | 01:35 |
| nixternal | i have been messing around with inkscape for creating a poster for my LoCo | 01:35 |
| nixternal | i want stickers!!! | 01:36 |
| kwwii | I made the banners as well | 01:36 |
| nixternal | i have been printing my own stickers out | 01:36 |
| nixternal | is this all located under the /Artwork wiki? | 01:36 |
| kwwii | oh, and someone printed a bunch of coffee cups too | 01:36 |
| nixternal | but i don't have one ;( | 01:36 |
| kwwii | nope | 01:36 |
| nixternal | haha | 01:36 |
| kwwii | I could put the banner stuff there, since I did it | 01:37 |
| nixternal | you keeping your stuff anywhere accessible??? | 01:37 |
| kwwii | the other things were previous to my involvement | 01:37 |
| nixternal | besides the wiki that is? | 01:37 |
| nixternal | like your blog ;) | 01:37 |
| kwwii | until now, no | 01:37 |
| nixternal | ahh..k | 01:37 |
| kwwii | I should make a wiki page I guess | 01:38 |
| nixternal | get the images up there..you guys are holding all the good stuff close..i know it | 01:38 |
| kwwii | hehe | 01:38 |
| nixternal | so..for kubuntu edgy, no more bubbles right? | 01:38 |
| kwwii | not sure, really | 01:38 |
| === nixternal begs | ||
| nixternal | hehe | 01:38 |
| kwwii | I saw some really nice bubble pics | 01:39 |
| nixternal | i actually grabbed a human color scheme from kde-look, i actually like it | 01:39 |
| nixternal | there must be a story behind the bubbles | 01:39 |
| kwwii | hehe | 01:39 |
| kwwii | nope, just kinda pulled that out of my ass | 01:39 |
| nixternal | hahahah | 01:39 |
| kwwii | from concept to product in one day | 01:39 |
| kwwii | I think edgy should be purple | 01:40 |
| nixternal | i wouldn't let every know that ;) | 01:40 |
| nixternal | oh lord..you and hobbsee with purple | 01:40 |
| nixternal | gentoo like is ok..barney the dinosaur purple is bad | 01:40 |
| kwwii | hehe | 01:40 |
| nixternal | i like the gray/blue stuff for some reason | 01:40 |
| kwwii | well, we will see what comes out of our new artwork process | 01:41 |
| nixternal | http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=31556 | 01:41 |
| nixternal | the colors in that are what im talking about | 01:41 |
| nixternal | i know i have seen some of the gnome work and i am truelly impressed | 01:42 |
| === nixternal likes the hybrid theme big time | ||
| kwwii | to be honest, I am not so big on such muted colors | 01:42 |
| kwwii | but lots of people seem to like them | 01:43 |
| nixternal | i never was myself | 01:43 |
| nixternal | until i grabbed that wallpaper | 01:43 |
| kwwii | I guess the icons look nice on it | 01:43 |
| nixternal | http://home.comcast.net/~nixternal//images/misc/yakuake.jpg | 01:44 |
| nixternal | errr | 01:44 |
| nixternal | http://home.comcast.net/~nixternal/images/misc/yakuake.jpg | 01:45 |
| nixternal | that has been my layout for a while now | 01:45 |
| nixternal | i don't use desktop icons at all, since i never get to see it ;) | 01:45 |
| kwwii | hehe | 01:45 |
| kwwii | dude, you chat too much | 01:45 |
| kwwii | how do you ever keep track of all those channels? | 01:45 |
| nixternal | i don't | 01:45 |
| kwwii | :p | 01:45 |
| nixternal | when they turn red i goto them | 01:46 |
| nixternal | the middle ones aren't high traffic so..it isn't to bad | 01:46 |
| kwwii | well, about time for bed | 01:46 |
| nixternal | alrighty..i will get with you later on the art stuff | 01:47 |
| kwwii | I'll make a wik page tomorrow and put up anything I can find that is marketing related | 01:47 |
| nixternal | im gonna go eat..and maybe hit the chain tonight ;) | 01:47 |
| nixternal | nixternal at gmail dot com | 01:47 |
| nixternal | or just ping me in here with info ;) | 01:47 |
| kwwii | cool, will do | 01:47 |
| nixternal | all the same, i will get it one way or the other | 01:47 |
| nixternal | thanks kwwii!!! | 01:47 |
| kwwii | ;-) | 01:47 |
| kwwii | see you | 01:47 |

| viper550 | Man, can't wait to hear who my theme team is! | 03:05 |
| troy_s | what? | 03:39 |
| troy_s | is it just me or do some people who chat in here seem like they need some serious chemical alignments? | 03:42 |
| troy_s | oh kwwii | 03:42 |
| troy_s | ping | 03:42 |
| nixternal | kwwii is passed out ;) | 03:44 |
| nixternal | whats up troy_s | 03:44 |
| nixternal | you got some pimpage on the MarketingTeam Meeting Minutes email today ;) | 03:44 |
| troy_s | huh? | 03:46 |
| troy_s | i added some content to the launchpad howto at the wiki -- because i probably should have done that sooner. | 03:47 |
| nixternal | good deal | 03:47 |
| troy_s | nixternal, hopefully you guys can really get some good coordination going. | 03:47 |
| nixternal | do you have the art team setup as a "Project" on the launchpad? | 03:48 |
| troy_s | hrm? | 03:48 |
| nixternal | in order to do specs, they have to be created on a "Project", "Program", or "Distribution" | 03:48 |
| troy_s | ahh yes... | 03:48 |
| troy_s | well our specs target packages | 03:48 |
| troy_s | generally | 03:48 |
| nixternal | ya, that is true | 03:48 |
| troy_s | but if you have a wiki page or howto or something, i certainly will look at it. | 03:49 |
| nixternal | whereas the marketing team wouldn't | 03:49 |
| nixternal | that is why i was thinking a "Marketing" Project | 03:49 |
| nixternal | and everything will fall under that | 03:49 |
| troy_s | indeed... it is a _little_ different, but the generalities of launchpad can benefit almost every team. | 03:49 |
| nixternal | Project == Marketing Team, and then the Programs == SpreadUbuntu, Magazine, Press Team....and so on | 03:49 |
| troy_s | ah | 03:51 |

| troy_s | don't know | 06:05 |
| troy_s | it was the devil in me | 06:05 |
| troy_s | how you doing mad? | 06:05 |
| troy_s | how's doc team progressing Madpilot ? | 06:06 |
| Madpilot | slow right now | 06:06 |
| troy_s | how come? | 06:06 |
| Madpilot | we're waiting for the source of the official Ubuntu book to be released, so we can incorporate it into our onscreen docs | 06:07 |
| troy_s | ah. | 06:07 |
| troy_s | the one from prentice hall? | 06:07 |
| Madpilot | yes | 06:08 |
| Madpilot | it's going to be "open sourced" just after it's paper publication | 06:08 |
| troy_s | interesting. | 06:08 |
| troy_s | so what is currently cooking in doc land? | 06:08 |
| troy_s | anything interesting? | 06:09 |
| Madpilot | a Switching From Windows guide, which is nice to have | 06:09 |
| troy_s | yes... | 06:09 |
| troy_s | i always thought it would be nice to have a 'what you can do out of box with ubuntu' | 06:10 |
| troy_s | as opposed to the traditional 'how do i do this that i used to do in windows' garbage. | 06:10 |
| troy_s | like streaming ogg classical, edit photos, etc. | 06:10 |
| troy_s | out of box, the ubuntu experience is pretty darn impressive, it just takes a little doc spin. | 06:10 |
| Madpilot | ya | 06:11 |
| troy_s | does the doc team use launchpad yet to track projects or accept braindumps? | 06:12 |
| Madpilot | not really, we've always just used the mailing list, and our SVN repo | 06:12 |
| troy_s | too bad. | 06:13 |
| Madpilot | it seems to work, we got a decent set of docs out for Dapper | 06:13 |
| troy_s | there are specs for doc things already though. just kind of curious why there wouldn't be officially tracked specs. | 06:18 |

| Viper550 | Yeah, much nicer, and I don't have to mess with kcontrol to make it look good in Gnome | 05:13 |
| kwwii_ | but I used xchat for a long time | 05:13 |
| Viper550 | Is the "real" xchat nicer? | 05:14 |
| kwwii_ | well, it doesn't fit well into any desktop, but it works great :-) | 05:15 |
| Viper550 | It's GTK, right? | 05:15 |
| kwwii_ | yepp | 05:17 |
| kwwii_ | erm, no, I do not think it is | 05:17 |
| lapo | it's gtk, not but not gnome | 05:21 |
| kwwii_ | yeah, exactly | 05:22 |
| lapo | s/not but/but/ | 05:22 |
| Viper550 | but that means it uses GTK themes, so it matches (in a way) | 05:22 |

| Viper550 | Hello | 10:12 |
| newz2000 | hi | 10:12 |
| Viper550 | Does anyone here use Xubuntu? | 10:13 |
| newz2000 | kwwii: I'm kind of thinking about taking the yellow part of the logo out and making the orange part yellow. | 10:13 |
| newz2000 | But I don't have a tremendous eye for color | 10:13 |
| kwwii_ | hehe, that looks pretty nice | 10:13 |
| Viper550 | Anyone here deal with Xubuntu artwork? | 10:13 |
| newz2000 | I want to be bold, but sometimes I'm just not gutsy enough | 10:13 |
| kwwii_ | yeah, maybe yellow only would look nicer | 10:13 |
| kwwii_ | it would look more proffesional | 10:14 |
| newz2000 | I'll try it | 10:14 |
| Viper550 | http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=42515 Made it myself | 10:14 |
| mhb | Viper550: not many people responding, are they? :o) | 10:14 |
| Viper550 | I see | 10:15 |
| newz2000 | Does inkscape have the concept of creating slices like photoshop? | 10:15 |
| Viper550 | Define "creating slices" | 10:15 |
| kwwii_ | newz2000: nope | 10:15 |
| mhb | Viper550: not many people here are using it, AFAIK | 10:16 |
| newz2000 | slices are where you use guides to mark out parts of art that will be saved as separate images | 10:16 |
| Viper550 | Not many people using Xubuntu | 10:16 |
| newz2000 | Viper550: haven't used XFCE since 3.0 came out | 10:16 |
| mhb | Viper550: artists need powerful machines | 10:16 |
| newz2000 | "what? You've only got one core?" | 10:17 |
| newz2000 | :-D | 10:17 |
| Viper550 | That's why I have begun contributing art to Xubuntu, not many people are wanting to do so | 10:17 |
| mhb | Viper550: the trouble is that most people are here for Ubuntu | 10:17 |
| mhb | Viper550: with only a few exceptions | 10:18 |
| newz2000 | kwwii_: http://bzr.newz.gotdns.com/htdocs/new/BZR%20Concept2006-07-14-2.svg | 10:18 |
| newz2000 | the previous one is there. | 10:18 |
| newz2000 | it's a -1 instad of -2 at the end | 10:18 |
| newz2000 | I trust your eye for color, which do you like better? | 10:18 |
| kwwii_ | newz2000: perhaps the line around the outside should be a bit thicker? (take the old orange version of that part and make it yellow)? | 10:20 |
| newz2000 | Yes, I agree | 10:20 |
| newz2000 | kwwii_ are you using inkscape or illustrator? | 10:22 |
| kwwii_ | newz2000: both :-) | 10:22 |
| kwwii_ | I try to use inkscape as much as possible | 10:22 |
| kwwii_ | using inkscape I just added a 2px yellow stroke to the outer path and it looks a bit better I think | 10:24 |
| newz2000 | ah, thats how you do that | 10:24 |
| kwwii_ | well, in illustrator I would offset the path | 10:24 |
| kwwii_ | which I actually like better because I can add rounding, etc, :-) | 10:24 |
| newz2000 | I thought I knew what you meant, but it didn't work out. I've about got it the manual way of splitting the two logos and combining the parts from each that I like | 10:25 |
| kwwii_ | I dig the grey boxes...the text looks nice on it | 10:25 |
| kwwii_ | newz2000: that will work too :-) | 10:26 |
| kwwii_ | if you open it in inkscape and click on the yellow line on the outside (the rotated squarish thing) and then give it a stroke (in the fill and stroke dialogue) | 10:27 |
| kwwii_ | enter two pixels and make the stroke color yellow :-) | 10:27 |
| newz2000 | Got it | 10:28 |
| newz2000 | Oh, wait. | 10:28 |
| newz2000 | It stroked the middle part too | 10:28 |
| kwwii_ | ungroup them | 10:29 |
| newz2000 | It says its not a group | 10:29 |
| newz2000 | did you break it into paths? | 10:29 |
| kwwii_ | ahh shit | 10:29 |
| kwwii_ | I just noticed that | 10:29 |
| kwwii_ | hrm, then I would split the path | 10:29 |
| newz2000 | That's OK, I did the other way | 10:29 |
| kwwii_ | erm, but that fscks it up | 10:29 |
| newz2000 | ok, let me try spliting it | 10:30 |
| kwwii_ | break it apart | 10:30 |
| kwwii_ | and then select only the two paths that made that path | 10:30 |
| kwwii_ | and then combine them | 10:31 |
| kwwii_ | than add the stroke again | 10:31 |
| kwwii_ | yeah, that works, I just did it | 10:31 |
| newz2000 | OK, so when I do that I get what looks like to filled diamons | 10:32 |
| kwwii_ | hehe | 10:32 |
| kwwii_ | let me send you the version I just did | 10:32 |
| kwwii_ | ? | 10:32 |
| newz2000 | ok | 10:32 |
| newz2000 | wait, I got it | 10:32 |
| kwwii_ | :-) | 10:32 |
| newz2000 | I forgot to combine them. Once I did that it worked | 10:32 |
| kwwii_ | :-) | 10:33 |
| kwwii_ | cool | 10:33 |
| === jd_ [n=jd@wikipedia/Meanos] has joined #ubuntu-artwork | ||
| newz2000 | I really don't use vectors often | 10:33 |
| newz2000 | Well, I will be now. | 10:33 |
| newz2000 | I can't get my photoshop working in Dapper. It pukes on some fonts | 10:34 |
| === kwwii [n=kwwii@194.121.21.240] has joined #ubuntu-artwork | ||
| mhb | newz2000: you can get msfonts (from easyubuntu) | 10:34 |
| newz2000 | I think I have too many fonts actually. | 10:34 |
| === kwwii_ [n=kwwii@p54957307.dip.t-dialin.net] has left #ubuntu-artwork ["Konversation] | ||
| newz2000 | It worked then I realized I was missing my fonts, so installed them into gnome. | 10:35 |
| newz2000 | That was the last time photoshop ran. | 10:35 |
| newz2000 | Interestingly, image ready works fine. | 10:35 |
| kwwii | hehe | 10:35 |
| kwwii | that is really funky | 10:35 |
| newz2000 | yeah | 10:36 |
| newz2000 | Now if there only was a way to maintain layers when transfering betwen inkscape and imageready | 10:36 |
| kwwii | then again, I somehow got all of my adobe products to *only* open files from the file open dialogue | 10:37 |
| kwwii | inkscape should have slices implemented :-) | 10:37 |
| newz2000 | yeah, this weekend I'll add it to their list. | 10:37 |
| newz2000 | I talked to them and they've about got blur working | 10:38 |
| newz2000 | They say it works but is murder on the renderer. I don't know what that means | 10:38 |
| newz2000 | except that they must not be 100% happy with it yet. | 10:38 |
| kwwii | funny, it should not be too hard | 10:38 |
| kwwii | well, I guess doing it on live objects is something else | 10:38 |
| newz2000 | I figure once we have blur then things like drop shadows and outer glow will be a piece of cake. | 10:39 |
| kwwii | yepp,definitely | 10:39 |
| kwwii | I have hard coded stuff like that before, it works great | 10:39 |
| newz2000 | you added the filters to the xml? | 10:41 |
| kwwii | yepp | 10:42 |
| kwwii | svg supports most of them already | 10:42 |
| kwwii | well, it supports blur | 10:42 |
| newz2000 | Did you have problems finding a viewer to see the end result? | 10:42 |
| kwwii | and the other things are just matrice stuff on the color channels, etc. | 10:42 |
| kwwii | nope, batick does it great | 10:42 |
| newz2000 | oh, I remember batick. | 10:43 |
| newz2000 | http://bzr.newz.gotdns.com/htdocs/new/BZR%20Concept2006-07-14-4.svg | 10:43 |
| newz2000 | that has the 2px stroke on the outside only | 10:43 |
| newz2000 | I like that the logo you made is so much more uniform than mine, but not so uniform that it looks rigid and angular. | 10:44 |
| kwwii | hehe, thanks | 10:45 |
| kwwii | I liked the way it has a natural feel to it...it makes it friendly | 10:45 |
| newz2000 | I agree | 10:46 |
| newz2000 | The bzr folk like it too. | 10:46 |
| kwwii | hehe | 10:46 |
| kwwii | hrm, the stroke is only 1px in that version | 10:47 |
| newz2000 | oh yeah | 10:47 |
| kwwii | I think it might look a bit better with 2 | 10:47 |
| kwwii | or 1.5 or such | 10:47 |
| newz2000 | no, it was 1 | 10:47 |
| newz2000 | I forgot that I abanded my broken apart one | 10:47 |
| kwwii | since it is not aligned perfectly to a grid a strange pixel size for the stroke shouldn't matter | 10:47 |
| newz2000 | yeah | 10:48 |
| newz2000 | When rasterizing, some of the strokes on my graphics come out looking fuzzy. | 10:48 |
| newz2000 | There must be a trick to sizing those just right so they don't have that problem | 10:48 |
| newz2000 | 2.000 looks good btw. | 10:49 |
| newz2000 | I updated the graphic on that link | 10:49 |
| kwwii | I just dumped a coke on my computer, one second | 10:49 |
| newz2000 | uh oh | 10:49 |
| kwwii | sdfghzki | 10:50 |
| kwwii | ok | 10:50 |
| kwwii | better now | 10:51 |
| kwwii | it is an emac | 10:51 |
| kwwii | these things have the most amazing keyboards | 10:51 |
| kwwii | you cannot fsck them up | 10:51 |
| newz2000 | amazing | 10:51 |
| kwwii | and it is one big fully contained box, so nothing can get into it | 10:51 |
| === Seveas [n=seveas@ubuntu/member/seveas] has joined #ubuntu-artwork | ||
| newz2000 | we need computers like on star trek. All voice controlled. | 10:51 |
| kwwii | that would make artwork really hard | 10:52 |
| newz2000 | (and you thought telling me how to fix the stroke was tricky) | 10:52 |
| kwwii | or really easy | 10:52 |
| mhb | we need better tools | 10:52 |
| mhb | so kwwii won't need illustrator | 10:52 |
| kwwii | tell your computer to "increase stroke to XML ID 4239842987 to 2 pixels and make it tango yellow" | 10:52 |
| kwwii | and then you say "now it says something about them being connected paths????" | 10:53 |
| newz2000 | yeah, and left a little | 10:53 |
| kwwii | I think I will stick to a decent GUI for now | 10:53 |
| newz2000 | me too | 10:54 |
| andreasn | newz2000: nice mockup | 10:55 |
| newz2000 | thanks | 10:55 |
| newz2000 | If you think it looks cool now, you should have seen it before the first round of revisions | 10:56 |
| newz2000 | :D | 10:56 |
| newz2000 | Can I get an amen? | 10:56 |
| kwwii | amen! | 10:57 |
| newz2000 | phew. I thought my works might be the only ones that get slaughtered | 10:57 |
| kwwii | might I suggest one more change? | 10:57 |
| newz2000 | yes, please | 10:57 |
| kwwii | the logo is also used in the bg of the box that says "learn bazaar" | 10:57 |
| kwwii | perhaps you could make that more transparent and/or white and more transparent? | 10:58 |
| kwwii | and it should be the exact same logo as above | 10:58 |
| andreasn | "learn bazaar", shouldn't that read "learn about bazaar"? | 10:58 |
| newz2000 | ah. You think its a little too bold for the background there? | 10:58 |
| kwwii | yepp | 10:58 |
| kwwii | or if you leave it as is, at least use the same version as the one directly above it | 10:59 |
| newz2000 | andreasn: yeah, it could be. I've been trying to avoid it though. | 10:59 |
| newz2000 | kwwii, I'll do both. Switch that logo out and make it lighter somehow. | 10:59 |
| kwwii | newz2000: you might have to make the yellow lighter, instead of adding transparency | 11:00 |
| kwwii | not sure | 11:00 |
| newz2000 | yeah, the transparency made it muddy gray | 11:00 |
| newz2000 | Lighter makes it almost radiant though, so it will need a little of both | 11:01 |
| jenda | aloha, newz2000, kwwii. | 11:01 |
| newz2000 | howdy jenda | 11:01 |
| jenda | newz2000: I managed to create the bzr branch ;) | 11:01 |
| kwwii | howdy jenda | 11:01 |
| jenda | Full of spreadubuntu art now :) | 11:01 |
| kwwii | jenda: I started a wiki page with a few marketing things | 11:01 |
| jenda | kwwii: linky? | 11:01 |
| newz2000 | jenda, you'll have to tell me how you did it, or point me towards the docs that taught you | 11:01 |
| kwwii | the banner I made for canonical, a flyer I made for kubuntu, and more is coming | 11:01 |
| kwwii | jenda: wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/Incoming/Marketing | 11:02 |
| jenda | newz2000: I was guided, so I'll rather tell you :) | 11:02 |
| newz2000 | Do you have time now or would you like to do it some other time? | 11:03 |
| jenda | kwwii: what's the difference between that and DIYMarketing ? | 11:03 |
| jenda | newz2000: now's good, if you like ;) | 11:03 |
| newz2000 | Sure | 11:03 |
| jenda | I'll have to scrounge my memory... | 11:03 |
| jenda | it's done from the terminal, not LP | 11:03 |
| jenda | Do you have ssh key taht LP recognises? | 11:04 |
| kwwii | jenda: well, only the banners have been officially approved so far | 11:04 |
| newz2000 | yes | 11:04 |
| jenda | kwwii: by whom? | 11:04 |
| kwwii | jenda: so I saw that as a place to put things before they go onto the DIY | 11:04 |
| kwwii | jenda: Jane approved them (with others, I guess) and canonical paid for them to be made | 11:04 |
| jenda | OK... | 11:05 |
| kwwii | you must understand, that those banners are two meters high and 80cm wide, so nobody else is going to print them | 11:05 |
| jenda | newz2000: cd to your directory, the one you want branched. | 11:05 |
| jenda | kwwii: yes yes, I understand. But I'm 95% certain you don't need approval to include stuff in DIYMarketing. | 11:06 |
| jenda | newz2000: type bzr init-repo --trees | 11:06 |
| kwwii | jenda: really? wow...I was afraid to simply add them there | 11:06 |
| newz2000 | requires argument location | 11:07 |
| jenda | gah | 11:07 |
| newz2000 | Don't sweat it | 11:07 |
| jenda | make it bzr init :) | 11:08 |
| jenda | sorry | 11:08 |
| jenda | then 'bzr add' | 11:08 |
| newz2000 | ok, that worked | 11:08 |
| jenda | now you publish it | 11:08 |
| jenda | do you want it to be a team-accessible branch, or just you? | 11:09 |
| jenda | (write access) | 11:09 |
| newz2000 | Well, I haven't created a spec for this project yet | 11:09 |
| newz2000 | Does it get associated with the spec? | 11:09 |
| jenda | nope | 11:10 |
| jenda | only a group | 11:10 |
| newz2000 | oh | 11:10 |
| jenda | you can associate it with a bug, I think ;) | 11:10 |
| newz2000 | I might need to do some more planning before I do this then. | 11:10 |
| newz2000 | But I can version my changes locally wtih this? | 11:10 |
| jenda | yes | 11:11 |
| jenda | well you can do one to try it out :) that's what i did by accident. It's still there, marked abandoned, and they disappear, supposedly. | 11:11 |
| jenda | (so they say ;) ) | 11:11 |
| newz2000 | ok | 11:12 |
| jenda | Anyway, the command is: bzr push sftp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~<user>/<project>/<branch> | 11:12 |
| jenda | <user> can be you or a team | 11:12 |
| jenda | <project> is the project it should be under... lemme think.. umm | 11:13 |
| kwwii | newz2000: I played with that box a bit...http://bootsplash.org/next_idea.svg | 11:13 |
| kwwii | made the logo much bigger and clipped it by the box | 11:13 |
| jenda | right, newz2000, you need to register a product for the branch to go with. | 11:14 |
| newz2000 | kwwii: good idea | 11:14 |
| jenda | PRODUCT, not project, sorry about that ;) | 11:14 |
| newz2000 | Yeah, I've got a product | 11:14 |
| newz2000 | ubuntu-website | 11:14 |
| jenda | OK, good enough :) | 11:15 |
| newz2000 | I'm going to wait to do that for a bit | 11:15 |
| jenda | and <branch> is whatever you want it to be called. | 11:15 |
| jenda | OK, do that, then. | 11:15 |
| newz2000 | did you have to do anything else? | 11:15 |
| jenda | No, it's done then. | 11:15 |
| newz2000 | So I wonder if bzr branches are like cvs branches | 11:16 |
| jenda | Every upstream update is bzr add, bzr commit, bzr push after that. | 11:16 |
| jenda | PRetty much, they are. | 11:16 |
| newz2000 | So there might be a 1_0 for the 1.0 release | 11:16 |
| newz2000 | but basically each branch is a progression from a previous branch | 11:16 |
| newz2000 | oh, I gotta go guys... | 11:17 |
| newz2000 | got to get new tires for my wife's car | 11:18 |
| newz2000 | you know what that means? | 11:18 |
| newz2000 | The cars going to die in < 4 weeks | 11:18 |
| newz2000 | I hate getting new tires, its like a curse | 11:18 |
| newz2000 | TTL guys | 11:19 |
| mhb | see you | 11:19 |
| jenda | How about a 0_0 for the 0.0 release? | 11:19 |
| jenda | :-D | 11:19 |
| jenda | later ;) | 11:19 |
| kwwii | newz2000: I fixed up a few small problems with that last version, reload it | 11:27 |
| kwwii | hehe, I just now read back to see that he is gone | 11:35 |
| mhb | kwwii: heh ... so true, so you :o) | 11:37 |
| kwwii | I am always doing ten things at once | 11:40 |
| jenda | Good night, you two, I'm off. | 11:41 |
| kwwii | night jenda | 11:43 |
| newz2000 | kwwii: what did you do on that last revision? | 11:52 |
| kwwii | I fixed the clipping on the logo on the box | 11:53 |
| kwwii | and changed the little logo at lower down to the same one as above | 11:53 |
| newz2000 | oh, thanks | 11:53 |
| kwwii | no problem | 11:53 |
