nixternalbah jenda ;)12:15
nixternalwelcome back12:15
MenZasup jenda12:16
jendathanks :)12:16
jendajust back for two days12:16
jendanixternal: was about to ask why the Ubuntu magazine ToDo is away from the MT ToDo wiki...12:16
nixternalhehe12:17
nixternalbecause the magazine is /UbuntuMagazine12:17
jendaI'd like them to be in one, so that people looking for work would see the entire list on one page12:17
nixternalso I put it under that12:17
jendaMistake number 1 :)12:17
jendaI believe it should be moved under /MarketingTeam/12:17
nixternaltruthfully...i think the main directory should fall under /Marketing    and then have /MarketingTeam for team stuff, and UbuntuMagazine and what not...utilizing /Marketing as the main Project wiki page12:18
jendaBut it's just an opinion. However, it is a project of the MT, and all the others are...12:18
MenZajenda: when you transfer the money, include your address and I'll send them as soon as I can get around to it (prolly mon or tuesday)12:18
jendanixternal: you are the wiki manager :)12:18
nixternalyou know what im saying....have all marketing related stuff on a marketing page, and team related stuff on a team page...i don't know..im just brainfarting out loud ;)12:18
jendaMenZa: OK, but it'll take me a long time to get the money. I only just ordered the stickers, and I'll be leaving for three weeks.12:18
MenZajenda: ouch :<12:19
MenZajenda: right, I'm gonna transfer them when I get the time, prolly next week12:19
MenZaI trust you ;)12:19
jendanixternal: In that case, we should have /Marketing/* including /Spreadubuntu/ ; /UbuntuMagazine/ ; /Team/ ; /MediaRelations/12:19
nixternalyes12:20
nixternali like it12:20
nixternalsomeone actually understood me ;)12:20
nixternali gotta get the UWN out by saturday, then im going on a "wiki" attack for us12:20
nixternaldepending on how long the UWN takes, which should truthfully only be a solid few hours of work..i will start hitting /Marketing hardcore12:21
jendaGreat :)12:21
nixternalim gonna go fetch a pizza..i shall return in a little bit ;)12:22
jendaMenZa: Thank you. I promise the first $25 on my paypal are yours.12:22
MenZa^^12:22
jendaBTW, I'll be sending the stickers out before folk pay me too.12:22
jendafolks)12:22
=== jenda has trouble typing :)
jendaWow, my launchpad karma whooped up to 30k :)12:23
jendaAnyway, I'll be off to bed.12:24
jendaMenZa: BTW, I can't withdraw money from paypal here in the Czech Republic :) So it wasn't really worth it for me to add a bank account to my pp account, so I don't have any money on there till the stickers are paid for.12:25
MenZalol12:25
jendaOK, good night.12:30

jendahello stefg, zard198911:47
jendaHEY!12:08
jendaMarketing People!12:08
jendaI'd like you all to have a look at the spreadubuntu designs on the wiki:12:09
ormirethttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/SpreadUbuntu/GraphicalDesignSpec12:12
jendaexactly, was getting there :)12:13
jendamy attention swayed... didn't think anyone was reading. Thanks 12:13
jendaAnyway:12:13
=== bimberi [n=bimberi@ubuntu/member/pdpc.active.bimberi] has joined #ubuntu-marketing
jendaAt tomorrows meeting, i'd like to choose a designer for the final design12:14
ormiret:)12:15
mdkea single designer?12:15
jendaBased on those previews...12:15
jendamdke: you don't think it's a good idea? I'd like someone to put it together - with or without help from others12:15
jendaI won't be here for three weeks.12:16
ormiretI think a team would be better since we've obviously got a load of people interested12:16
mdkeI don't know, I haven't really thought about it much. The team thinks it will be difficult to work in a group on that?12:16
jendaMaybe not.12:17
jendaBut I won't be here to resolve any troubles that arise.12:17
jendaIf any do, that is.12:17
mdkeyou don't feel that the team can resolve I think troubles should be resolved as a team anyway12:18
mdkeargh, that came out wrong12:18
mdke"I think troubles should be resolved as a team anyway"12:19
jendaI know what you mean - but I am quite sure that if I just throw it out in the air, it won't be done by the time I'm back.12:22
mdkewho is interested on working on it? everyone who submitted a design?12:22
mdkeand are we talking about a design, or implementation?12:23
jendaSo if there's a single person who pushes it and tries to have it done by that time so we can start writing content, it would be more effective, I think. BTW I totally failed at getting the wiki ready for others to work on. Not enough time.12:23
jendamdke: just graphical designs12:23
mdkeright12:23
jendas/plural/singular/12:23
mdkegood, because it seems to me that the structure of the website hasn't been totally worked out yet... there were a lot of overlaps in the flow chart thing with other ubuntu sites, like www.ubuntu.com12:24
mdkewhat is the time frame for that to be discussed?12:24
jendatill around mid-august, I'd imagine.12:26
jendaAs soon as I come back, I'll try to finalise the structure. Mind - I don't mind slight content-overlap. In quite a few cases, the content might be similar, but the form needs to be different for u.c and s.u.c12:27
mdkewell, personally I'd like to see integration with ubuntu.com rather than overlap, and I noted that a few people on the mailing list seem to agree12:28
ormiretI agree with mdke here: SU is a big enough project without duplicating stuff that already exists.12:29
jendaI agree too - whenever possible, links will lead to u.c (for example the screenshot section)12:29
ormiretjenda: can you put a mail to the list reminding about the meeting (save me having to look up when it is)12:31
jendaSure, please do.12:32
ormiretno, this idea was you do it :)12:33
ormiretis there an agenda?12:37
ormiret(I stoppped being so lazy and started writing the mail)12:37
jendaormiret: Aha :-D12:38
jendaSorry, I missed that.12:39
ormiret:)12:39
ormiretis there an agenda though? (I can't find one)12:40

mdkejenda: filing bug reports...01:19
mdkethe faq is a total nightmare right now, it needs a serious rehaul01:19
jendaOK01:19
jendaYes, it does. I recently filed a bug.01:20
mdkeI'd like to strip out documentation and move it to the help website, leaving the faq for "about ubuntu" type questions01:20
jendaBut I meant a more creative aproach, like adding content - bugs too?01:20
mdkeyeah sure. Include the content you think is suitable01:20
jendaYes, that makes sense.01:20
jendaOK01:20
mdkeI'm hoping that the website can benefit a lot more from community ideas01:21
mdkewe just got a new webmaster, so things are already starting to move faster01:21
