troy_s | greetz kwwii_ -- ltns | 05:26 |
kwwii_ | hey troy_s, wassup? | 05:26 |
troy_s | Usual fuddle. | 05:26 |
troy_s | Yourself? | 05:26 |
kwwii_ | well, theoretically, I am on vacation in america | 05:27 |
troy_s | Ahh... | 05:27 |
troy_s | Doing what? | 05:27 |
kwwii_ | practically, I am working on the login screen | 05:27 |
kwwii_ | :-) | 05:27 |
troy_s | (Did you know that Xara .7 now has rough SVG import in place?) | 05:27 |
troy_s | Why in america? | 05:28 |
kwwii_ | troy_s: well, I was born here, and my family is here | 05:28 |
troy_s | Ah, now I get it. | 05:28 |
kwwii_ | so I am here with my wife and son (at my Moms' place now) | 05:28 |
kwwii_ | not too much of a vacation really | 05:28 |
troy_s | Indeed. | 05:28 |
kwwii_ | it ends up being more work than fun | 05:28 |
kwwii_ | I really wish I could build xara on my ppc | 05:29 |
troy_s | Well I have been busy too, trying to hook up with fschoep has been rather like juggling chainsaws. | 05:29 |
kwwii_ | I am seriously thinking about buying another laptop (intel this time) to run linux on | 05:29 |
kwwii_ | hehe | 05:29 |
troy_s | Xara runs terrific on my box... even in 32 bit emul mode. | 05:29 |
kwwii_ | I will be seeing him in a few days, I guess that is why he is offline now | 05:29 |
troy_s | I am bumping to the 4x4 in a month or so... | 05:30 |
troy_s | X2 now with 4 gigs of ram. | 05:30 |
kwwii_ | the developer sprint tends to be a lot of work | 05:30 |
kwwii_ | hehe, killer | 05:30 |
troy_s | Going to quad quad amd when it is released. | 05:30 |
troy_s | Dev sprint with no sabdfl though... | 05:31 |
kwwii_ | really? | 05:31 |
kwwii_ | wow, that should be somewhat different | 05:31 |
troy_s | Well you are talking about the sprint right? | 05:31 |
kwwii_ | yepp | 05:31 |
troy_s | I don't think he hits those... only the release ones. | 05:31 |
troy_s | But I might be wrong. | 05:31 |
kwwii_ | he was at the last one, and he was very active | 05:31 |
troy_s | Hrm... where is the wiki link -- he is usually listed on them no? | 05:32 |
kwwii_ | at that time I still had no idea that there was a wiki :p | 05:32 |
troy_s | Well hopefully Frank will keep the torch burning. | 05:36 |
troy_s | My bloody email has finally quieted down for a week thanks to Frank being in deep. | 05:37 |
troy_s | ;) | 05:37 |
kwwii_ | hehe | 05:37 |
troy_s | Hopefully Frank will get the Proposal close doc officially announced. | 05:38 |
kwwii_ | next week should solidify things a lot | 05:39 |
troy_s | Yes, we have been flurrying emails when we can. | 05:40 |
troy_s | Hrm... mdz is here I see. | 05:40 |
troy_s | Interesting. | 05:40 |
troy_s | How goes the Kubuntu related things? Slow? | 05:41 |
kwwii_ | well, on the stuff that I have done, things are going well...what we really need so more community contributions | 05:42 |
kwwii_ | s/so/is | 05:42 |
troy_s | Well you won't get it without stimulating it. | 05:42 |
troy_s | Simple byproduct of critical mass theory. | 05:43 |
troy_s | Do you have a wiki page with the updated bits on it? | 05:44 |
kwwii_ | pretty much everything is on the exitsting wiki page...right now I have limited internet access so I'll be uploading the kdm and buttons sometime within a couple of days | 05:45 |
kwwii_ | I guess you mean that I should increase the emails to the list concerning kubuntu? | 05:45 |
kwwii_ | I was kinda trying to avoid using the list too much, as it seemed that we wanted to stick to the wiki for that kind of stuff | 05:46 |
troy_s | Naw... it really is an announcement venue -- I would utilize it and lead the troops that are out there. | 05:46 |
troy_s | We have quite a few contributors, and a simple request note could very well generate some response, especially if it is well timed. | 05:47 |
kwwii_ | I actually did send some emails with info and asking for contribution when I updated the wiki pages | 05:47 |
troy_s | Jmak and who to say the least have been very productive. | 05:48 |
troy_s | I am hoping that Frank's roll in for Production will be explanatory enough to constrain the elements. | 05:48 |
kwwii_ | true, and I asked who to help with kubuntu but it seems he doesn't want to | 05:48 |
troy_s | Hrm... did he mail to that effect? | 05:48 |
troy_s | Obviously time constraints impact everyone. | 05:48 |
kwwii_ | nope | 05:48 |
kwwii_ | I thought about taking some of his stuff, playing with it a bit and then ask for his help :-) | 05:49 |
troy_s | I have been sending him a plethora of my reference library stuffs. | 05:49 |
troy_s | Probably a good way to go about it :) | 05:49 |
troy_s | I have some wonderful palettes that I need to XCF too... Mr. Krause's work | 05:49 |
troy_s | very skilled fellow that guy... I guess that explains his publishing record. | 05:49 |
kwwii_ | hehe | 05:50 |
troy_s | Have some pretty interesting ideas for a campaign, but still needs development. Hopefully I can find enough time between now and the next Summit. | 05:51 |

troy_s | Are you familiar with any of the design movements? | 05:51 |
kwwii_ | I have been staying on top of the ubuntu stuff as well, yeah | 05:52 |
kwwii_ | not quite sure I agreed with some of the GTK stuff, but otherwise it is coming along nicely | 05:52 |
troy_s | What GTK stuff... must have missed it. | 05:53 |
kwwii_ | the widget stuff | 05:53 |
troy_s | The single man flailfest? | 05:53 |
troy_s | Oh god... yeah. | 05:53 |
troy_s | I don't think anyone is really paying too much attention. | 05:53 |
kwwii_ | but I really wish that kubuntu had that many people working on it | 05:53 |
kwwii_ | it would really make things easier for me :p | 05:54 |
troy_s | You familiar with lissitzky | 05:54 |
troy_s | well you need to stimulate it really... give the folks the architecture. | 05:54 |
kwwii_ | I guess I was not used to juggling doing the artwork and coordinating it from a community standpoint | 05:55 |
troy_s | Suprematism / Lissitzky? | 05:56 |
kwwii_ | nope | 05:56 |
troy_s | Wow. | 05:56 |
troy_s | Very amazing fellow... you should google him. | 05:56 |
troy_s | 1919 and his stylistic cleavings still have leverage on contemporary design. | 05:56 |
kwwii_ | wikipedia, gotta love it | 05:57 |
kwwii_ | sounds very interesting | 05:57 |
troy_s | Heavy avant garde fellow... but I am thinking it would quite remarkable and distinct to base a 'campaign' on stylistic tendencies of certain periods. | 05:58 |
troy_s | Very interesting, and it would probably go a long way to attracting more artists. | 05:58 |
troy_s | There must be a wikipedia page on suprematism no? | 05:59 |
kwwii_ | reading it now | 05:59 |
troy_s | Wow. | 05:59 |
kwwii_ | das zielbewute Schaffen | 05:59 |
troy_s | They don't have the damn wedge work from lissitzsky though... sort of a classic in the genre. | 05:59 |
kwwii_ | killer | 06:00 |
troy_s | Amazing stuff eh? | 06:00 |
troy_s | You found his wedge? I bet google has it... | 06:01 |
troy_s | http://images.google.ca/images?hl=en&hs=9Sa&client=firefox&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial&sa=N&resnum=0&q=lissitzky%20wedge&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&tab=wi | 06:01 |
troy_s | A truly remarkable artist. | 06:01 |
kwwii_ | wow | 06:02 |
kwwii_ | yeah, amazing | 06:02 |
kwwii_ | killer | 06:02 |
troy_s | If the marketing team were at a decent level, it would be an interesting venture. | 06:04 |
troy_s | Combine the various movements with the notions that they implied, and draw an Ubuntu analogy to each. | 06:04 |
kwwii_ | hehe | 06:05 |
troy_s | I think it would make for a distint and striking series of posters. | 06:05 |
troy_s | Have a Dada, Suprematism, Cubist, etc. | 06:06 |
kwwii_ | yeah | 06:06 |
kwwii_ | no doubt | 06:06 |
troy_s | http://www.getty.edu/research/conducting_research/digitized_collections/lissitzky/5_theories/images/Liss037L.jpg | 06:07 |
troy_s | You could probably take that lissitzsky somewhere... ;) | 06:07 |
kwwii_ | no doubt | 06:08 |
troy_s | Wow... wikepedia even has some of his personal letters to folks... very nifty. | 06:09 |
kwwii_ | I really love it | 06:11 |
kwwii_ | ok, gonna do some work now | 06:16 |
