Burgundaviait is mostly useless, but you might want to join in the "unified branding" thing john baer just posted04:23
jsgotangcoBurgundavia: thanks i'll look into it, i have very little interest in unified branding btw, i was just looking at the logos of teams yesterday and thought it would be neat to have some kind of locoteam intramurals04:24
hlabslisten does edubuntu work with yahoo messenger. 04:25
Burgundaviahlabs: yep, via gaim04:25
Burgundaviajsgotangco: this would be unified branding across Edu/U/K/Xubuntu04:25
jsgotangcohlabs: the voice stuff doesn't work04:26
jsgotangcohlabs: yahoo isnt developing an improved client at all04:26
hlabsis there any IM software that works with voice in edu04:26
jsgotangcohlabs: gizmo, skype, ekiga to name a few04:26
jsgotangco(ekiga is a softphone btw)04:26

=== mhz still has not been able to make ekiga work
mhz(well, it does run but I can't seem to talk to the other person :) )04:28

jsgotangcoekiga is just a softphone04:28
mhzjsgotangco: yeah04:29

Amaranth"Python 2.4 allocated small objects in 256K-sized arenas, but never freed arenas. With this patch, Python will free arenas when they're empty. The net effect is that on some platforms, when you allocate many objects, Python's memory usage may actually drop when you delete them, and the memory may be returned to the operating system."08:44

Burgundaviahmm, appears you have no google juice RichEd08:48
RichEdBurgundavia: googling is dangerous for me ... i end up opening eleventy seven windows ... looking for a quick coffee read today ... not a research project ;)08:48
RichEd(especially now that i have "discovered" firefox and the tabs ... neat :) ... but even more open pages now)08:49
mhzRichEd: hi there... There is going to be the annual Linux Encounter (not sure if that is correct into english) in Chile, in November. Any chances you can come and give a talk? I am preparing some material for that event. However, if we're gonna have some kind of Edubuntu market insertion plan for LAm, you would the one to give the impression of "we're serious about it ":D08:49
RichEdmhz: thanks for the heads up ... sounds like an opportunity ... but all (good) things revolve around the meetings next week with the powers that be.08:50
mhzyeah! Google is like wikipedia... I always endup reading much more than expected about other stuff08:50
RichEdmhz: pop me an email, with background ... i'd sure like to come ... will need to build a quick case for approval08:51
mhzokis08:51
RichEdbut if we can combine the encounter request with a m"eet mhz and draw up a LAm snapshot & plan for next 12 months suggestion" ... would make sense (to me)08:52
mhzRichEd: even greater!08:52
RichEdpre-requisite homework:  i would need to ask you then to draw up a summary of the entire South American continent to give me a background on that region ... and then make you the "South American Champion for Ubuntu & Edubuntu)08:54
RichEdso i can justify that i am building a regional support base for Education Programme ... and saving time & effort & money in future08:54
RichEdwould that make sense (it would allow me to give you much more support) ?08:55
mhzRichEd: I have just been invited to a kind of "seminar" for people from 19 to 29 years old. The seminar is to motivate them and talk about 'enterpreneouring' (?), FLOSS vision and Sustainable Development, How and Why Linux has become succesfull, and many other things. I'll have a meeting anut it hopefully on Friday, so I'll tell you afterwards what they want me for. So far, I know they'll have 50 pcs available. /me will try to have at least 5 with Edubuntu 08:56
mhz:D08:56
mhzanut =about08:57
RichEdmhz: going to open a pvt window for discussion with you ... give me 5 mins to clear up something first08:57

mhzjsgotangco: re 10 inches laptops for a cheap price/ I did find the specs, thx for the hints. I just did not find them for cheap price. I want them for teachers and students, so for those prices, it is not a good deal. :D09:24
jsgotangcowell that's the price you pay for miniaturization09:24
mhzyeah, i know.09:25
mhzChile wont be part of OLPC (still dont know why...nobody understands it), so I decided to look up for other alternatives.09:25
mhzmore expensive, but affordable09:26
jsgotangcoso is my home country09:26
mhzIIRC, only Argentina and Brazil have requested units09:26
mhzjsgotangco: do you know your Gov. reasons?09:27
jsgotangcowe have more problems here like lack of classrooms and teachers so having computers for each student is not really an appealing problem to solve09:27
jsgotangcoprivate foundations have been more successful in donations and such and the Education Media initiative is wildly successful09:28
jsgotangcofar flung areas have no access to computers though but interestingly, the penetration rate of mobile phones is suprisingly high :)09:29
jsgotangcowe are a natural-disater prone country and schools also serve as evacuation centers09:30
jsgotangco(public schools that is)09:30
jsgotangcoedubuntu as a server solution is not really an appealing solution here either as we can't even achieve a 1:1 ratio09:33
jsgotangcothe public school in my hometown for example has around a thousand students but only has 10 computers09:34
