makoother testimonials?06:18
makosomeone from the doc team maybe?06:18
lloydinhohey, thanks ubuntu_demon. 06:18
ubuntu_demonlloydinho: np :)06:18
lloydinhoI forgot to bring any cheerleaders.06:19
Kamionhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu is a nice piece of work06:19
=== simira cheers for lloydinho
makoi was JUST going to say that06:19
makolloydinho: so, i assume you've seen or have worked from the participate page06:19
makolloydinho: on the ubuntu website06:19
nixternalheh06:20
makolloydinho: this seems like that page on steroids.. or perhaps what that should page should be06:20
lloydinhomako, I have. That was the inspiration for this ContributeDoc06:20
makowhich begs the question.... :)06:20
Kamionaccess control on /participate is probably a mite too tight06:20
makoi point people to the participate page probably 5-10 times a week06:20
=== j_ack [n=rudi@p508DA3E2.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting

Kamion(not that it can be different really due to how www. works)06:21
nixternalCC:  let me just quickly state that Lloyd is incredibly important to documentation right now, and mdke could definitely tell you more about that. Lloyd has created a lot of cool stuff for us, including the new contribute documentation...he is a great assett to the Ubuntu community w/o a doubt!06:21
makoor something06:21
Kamiona link seems pretty reasonable, perhaps if ContributeToUbuntu moved to help.u.c06:21
lloydinhowow. thanks nixternal .06:21
makoKamion: right, that's what i'm thinking06:21
nixternallets not forget /mystory either06:21
Kamionmm, what's the story on mystory?06:21
Kamionfirst I'd heard of that, wondering who's behind that address06:21
makolloydinho: it might be nice to think about what we can do what the participate page06:21
lloydinhoit's one of the marketing projects..06:21
nixternalplus he has his cool specs from the Paris Summit as well with anthro that was cool06:22
makolloydinho: maybe it should get smaller with just links to various sections in the new page06:22
lloydinhomako, we have discussed various ways of doing the participate page.06:22

makolloydinho: cool, i'd love to see something happen with it.. let me know and i'm happy to help you with www06:23

svakshaCurrently admin 2 lists at Linuxchix, co-wrote a Sanskrit locale with Christian Perrier (Debian) and editor at DMOZ. Having used all releases since Warty, I lurked awhile in Q1'05 and later joined the Bugsquad [https://launchpad.net/people/svaksha/+karma] , Ubuntu-Women, Marketing, Fridge, and translation teams. 06:25
svakshaUbuntu-Women is doing well with many women (and men) contributing in the community, upstream and relevant Foss arenas. Have contributed articles to Fridge nd UWN. Plan to keep the Fridge cool and well stocked with community news, events, advocacy, articles, and other sound bytes flowing in, and think it would also be advantageous to synchronise news with grass-roots marketing in the Ubuntu community. 06:25
svakshaTime-permitting, hope to pitch in with tasks useful to the Motu's - packaging, testing, other technical details about Ubuntu, its relation with Debian and how they work in tandem. Have never missed an opportunity to advocate and spread the Ubuntu cheer (CD's), Ubuntu books, and my Ubuntu converts' list is aplenty with most folks giving positive feedback (almost always :-)) during follow-ups.  /End.06:26

tseliotMy Experience and Involvement with Ubuntu06:34
tseliotI have used Ubuntu since April 2005 when I tried it, loved it, left Windows and never looked back. One of the reasons for which I like Ubuntu is its forum, where I learnt most of the things that I know (thanks to all the people who were so kind to help me). I decided to pay back all the people who helped me by helping new (unexperienced) users, which all my guides06:34
tseliotare thought for. As a matter of fact I try explaining as many things as possible when I write my guides so that anyone can follow them, even when dealing with topics such as the recompilation of the kernel.06:35
tseliotThen I joined the Archival team on ubuntuforums.org and therefore worked on the documentation on the UDSF.06:35
tseliotI have recently become a Moderator on the Ubuntu Forums (ubuntuforums.org)06:35
tseliotHere is my profile on ubuntuforums.org:06:35

tseliotMy Projects:06:36
tseliot1) My Envy script06:36
tseliotUsers very often need the latest Nvidia driver (which is usually available as an installer and not as a deb package). Being aware of all the lenght (and difficulty) of the procedures which installing the Nvidia driver from the installer implies I decided to make the process a bit easier for beginners (in addition to my guide about it).06:36
svakshamako: no , will apply tomorrow06:36
tseliotI started a new project, which I named Envy (the Italian for Envy is "invidia"). It is a script (written in Python and packaged as a .deb file) which automates the installation of the latest Nvidia proprietary driver on Ubuntu (both Breezy and Dapper are supported). It installs all the packages needed to compile the driver and removes the restricted modules. It also offers the possibility to automatically configure the Xserve06:36

makoArbiter: cool, thanks for being patient07:17
matthew5I am a writer by trade, currently working on a self-funded research project in Morocco looking at Moroccan Arabic humor and how it reveals culture. I have a degree from the University of Arizona in Education and Social Sciences and have never worked in a tech-related field. I have been a teacher, a language school administrator, and done a ton of other stuff as well. I'm 36, married with 3 kids. My Ubuntu experien07:17
matthew5ce began in April 2005 when I bought a linux magazine with a Hoary cd in it. I set up a dual boot with WinXP and found myself using Ubuntu about 95% of the time within a couple of weeks.07:17
matthew5I had lots of questions at the beginning and got help for all of them in the Ubuntu Forums. As time passed I noticed others asking similar questions or questions about things I had just figured out so I started answering them as a way to give back to the community. I was asked to be a part of the forum staff, and while I was honored I turned down the offer the first time as I didn't feel like I had learned enough 07:17
matthew5to be really helpful. Time passed and I continued to try to help when and where I could feeling like I had received so much at no cost to myself I should give something back. I was asked again to join the staff and was convinced. That was in March 2006. The rest is in my wiki and launchpad pages.07:17
matthew5sorry, more than 3 lines...07:18
