johnlittle | yeah i know | 02:18 |
johnlittle | where can I buy a glass penguin? | 02:18 |
poningru | thats a penguin?? | 02:18 |
johnlittle | theres a punchline right there | 02:19 |
Burgundavia | johnlittle: you need to win one | 02:19 |
poningru | we were commenting on the one you won | 02:19 |
johnlittle | burgundavia: I guess carrying a glass penguin and passing yourself off as a linux trivia winner to meet women isn't very cool is it? | 02:19 |
poningru | http://whiprush.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/222197228_fed9f3d4c9_b_1.jpg | 02:19 |
Burgundavia | johnlittle: dude, absolutely. That so explains why I got stood up this evening | 02:20 |
Burgundavia | whiprush is just cooler than me | 02:20 |
johnlittle | burgundavia: theres some mojo in that trophy though..i must have it | 02:20 |
poningru | indeed | 02:20 |
poningru | who gets to keep it? | 02:20 |
Burgundavia | there were three | 02:20 |
Burgundavia | we each got one | 02:20 |
poningru | woah | 02:21 |
poningru | nice | 02:21 |
johnlittle | cool | 02:21 |
johnlittle | nice paperweight | 02:21 |
johnlittle | or with the right chain..bling | 02:21 |
poningru | rofl | 02:22 |
=== poningru can see Burgundavia wearing that | ||
poningru | hmm /me wonders if elkbuntu or madpilot will gimp it for us | 02:22 |
Burgundavia | dude, the thing is about 60cm tall | 02:22 |
poningru | uh... so? | 02:22 |
Burgundavia | poningru: madpilot can take a picture of it, given he is my brother | 02:22 |
poningru | right | 02:23 |
poningru | oh right | 02:23 |
poningru | but I didnt think you would want to put a hole through that thing | 02:23 |
Burgundavia | no | 02:23 |
Burgundavia | there was a discussion of bongs or beer mugs, however | 02:23 |
johnmark | slashdot sucks | 02:23 |
johnmark | they rejected my ubucon post :( | 02:24 |
poningru | hehe | 02:27 |
johnlittle | funny how ubuntu finds its way into every episode of Go Open :) | 02:28 |
Burgundavia | not really | 02:28 |
johnlittle | ^^sarcasm | 02:29 |
=== Burgundavia was not born yesterday | ||
johnlittle | lol | 02:29 |
poningru | gaaah | 02:29 |
Burgundavia | although the waitresses in SF apparently thought I was 16 | 02:30 |
johnlittle | I wish Mark would make more stuff like that..for internet distribution only | 02:30 |
johnlittle | 16,..damn | 02:30 |
Burgundavia | dude, I turned 24 on the 18th | 02:32 |
johnlittle | Ont of the Blender Foundation guys was asking me about getting Blender on the default install..seems unlikely to me but is there someone he can contact? | 02:32 |
Burgundavia | never going to happen | 02:32 |
johnlittle | Thats what I thought | 02:33 |
Burgundavia | gimp is already in dicey waters | 02:33 |
johnlittle | why? | 02:33 |
Burgundavia | not enough people actually use the thing | 02:33 |
Burgundavia | it is a really powerful photoeditor | 02:33 |
Burgundavia | people do things like crop, remove redeye, etc. | 02:33 |
johnlittle | How do we measure usage on apps? | 02:36 |
Burgundavia | popcon can tell us | 02:36 |
Burgundavia | people that doesn't really tell us what people use an app for | 02:36 |
Burgundavia | that is more subjective | 02:36 |
poningru | johnlittle: the number of questions | 02:36 |
poningru | on forums, irc etc. | 02:36 |
poningru | there are ways | 02:37 |
Burgundavia | no really objective ways | 02:37 |
=== poningru thinks they should go from gimp -> gpaint | ||
poningru | yeah | 02:37 |
poningru | ofcourse | 02:37 |
poningru | its a 'feeling' | 02:37 |
Burgundavia | with fspot, there is an arguement to remove both eog and the gimp | 02:37 |
Burgundavia | I don't think we are quite there yet | 02:37 |
poningru | eog??? | 02:38 |
poningru | are you kidding me? | 02:38 |
poningru | with fspot? | 02:38 |
Burgundavia | fspot is already there | 02:38 |
Burgundavia | to replace grthumb | 02:38 |
poningru | ai no | 02:38 |
Burgundavia | but fspot has a view mode and an edit/sort mode | 02:38 |
Burgundavia | as long as fspot is fast enough, it is ok | 02:38 |
Burgundavia | I am a big fspot user too | 02:39 |
Burgundavia | eog, that is | 02:39 |
poningru | but last I checked it was pretty crappy... | 02:39 |
poningru | that was back in breezy | 02:39 |
Burgundavia | right | 02:39 |
Burgundavia | that would be like trying the linux desktop in 2000 and saying it sucked in 2006 | 02:39 |
poningru | ... | 02:43 |
poningru | dude 6 months ago | 02:43 |
Burgundavia | poningru: please rationally tell me why fspot lacks what eog does, aside from the speed issue | 02:43 |
poningru | well you took away the one and only problem | 02:43 |
poningru | and stability | 02:43 |
Burgundavia | not a major issue | 02:43 |
johnlittle | those should be easily fixable | 02:44 |
poningru | as in its solved or it shouldnt matter to people? | 02:44 |
poningru | knowing Burgundavia its the former... | 02:44 |
Burgundavia | solved | 02:44 |
johnlittle | lol | 02:44 |
poningru | see I would install fspot on this right now | 02:47 |
poningru | but ... edgy | 02:47 |
poningru | if its crashy and stuff... I cant properly blame fspot | 02:47 |
johnlittle | if its gnome why isnt it called g-spot? ;) | 02:48 |

Burgundavia | johnlittle: naming stuff with a G is dead in the GNOME community, thankfully | 02:50 |
johnlittle | as it should be | 02:50 |
johnlittle | I did that with b when I had my company but we had like 10 apps..it wasn't that annoying. browsing KDE apps makes me want totorture small animals | 02:52 |
johnlittle | torture | 02:53 |
lophyte | Burgundavia: any word from that woman? | 02:53 |
Burgundavia | lophyte: yes, order away | 02:53 |
lophyte | Burgundavia: awesome. are you gonna set a date and call it official then, or..? | 02:53 |
Burgundavia | si tu veux | 02:54 |
lophyte | my french isn't all that great :\ | 02:54 |
Burgundavia | if you want | 02:56 |
lophyte | are you gonna start it up? | 02:57 |
lophyte | or what did you have in mind? | 03:06 |
johnlittle | is there any chance of getting Ubuntu Video linked from any other community sites? | 03:06 |

Burgundavia | lophyte: am, here | 03:30 |
Burgundavia | making dinner | 03:30 |
lophyte | ah | 03:30 |
lophyte | forgot about the time difference | 03:30 |
lophyte | so what did you have in mind for this project? are you gonna lead it? | 03:32 |
Burgundavia | I want to promote Ubuntu. I will lead the effort to connect lugs | 03:33 |
lophyte | we are promoting Ubuntu.. that's the whole point of the project | 03:33 |
poningru | yarr | 03:36 |
lophyte | so, what about setting a date? | 03:41 |
lophyte | I don't think we have enough time to aim for SFD | 03:42 |
Burgundavia | I think we do | 03:42 |
lophyte | that's really pushing it.. and that's even if we can get CDs in 3 weeks. | 03:43 |
poningru | trying to do what now? | 03:44 |
lophyte | organize a Canada-wide marketing campaign of sorts | 03:44 |
poningru | Burgundavia: is this ca only? or going for a bit broader | 03:44 |
lophyte | well, not necessarily.. that's just how it started | 03:45 |
lophyte | well, I'm gonna talk to the Toronto guys tomorrow. | 03:53 |
lophyte | but we need to get on this ASAP if we're doing it on SFD | 03:53 |
johnlittle | whats the goal? | 03:54 |
lophyte | promoting Ubuntu, ultimately ;P | 03:57 |

Burgundavia | poningru: SFD is worldwide | 04:15 |
poningru | Burgundavia: I know | 04:16 |
poningru | talking about your movement | 04:16 |
Burgundavia | just ca | 04:16 |
lophyte | and I'll try to get together a Toronto team | 04:16 |
poningru | ah | 04:16 |
lophyte | Burgundavia: are you gonna post to the mailing list about it? | 04:18 |
Burgundavia | I will | 04:18 |
lophyte | k. | 04:18 |
lophyte | we should figure out what cities we have the most people in | 04:18 |
lophyte | and target those | 04:18 |
lophyte | obviously Vancouver and Toronto are on that list.. but figure out where else we have people form | 04:18 |
lophyte | s/form/from | 04:19 |
lophyte | I'm still skeptical about the date though :\ | 04:20 |
lophyte | 5 CDs took almost 3 weeks.. I can't imagine a bigger batch being quicker | 04:20 |
Burgundavia | marilize will expedite it | 04:21 |
lophyte | do I need to put a special note in there for that? | 04:22 |
lophyte | like ATTN marilize or something | 04:22 |
Burgundavia | yep | 04:22 |
lophyte | alright | 04:22 |
lophyte | now for the big question.. how many? ;P | 04:22 |
Burgundavia | I would ask the toronto guys | 04:23 |
lophyte | alright.. I'll bring it up tomorrow night go from there | 04:23 |
lophyte | I'll also put an ad up in the Linux Caffe, and on craigslist, for Ubuntu fans/users in Toronto to help out with the Toronto team's marketing effort | 04:23 |
lophyte | did you say it was the 16th? | 04:24 |
Burgundavia | yep | 04:25 |
lophyte | k, i'll make note of it | 04:25 |
lophyte | cool.. I'll let you know what the Toronto guys say | 04:27 |
lophyte | I'll email you.. I probably won't be home until 10 or 11PM and by that time, I'll be heading to bed | 04:27 |
lophyte | anyway, I'm off for bed | 04:31 |

ormiret | if you aren't adding anything to the discussion why send a mail? | 06:54 |
ormiret | sorry that was a general you not you sepcifically | 06:55 |
johnlittle | well since I requested assistance maybe that could have been offered instead | 06:55 |
ormiret | only if people know of videos (and the whole point of ubuntu video is that most people don't - so you have managed to prove that it is needed :) ) | 06:57 |
johnlittle | Maybe. I just find negativity - esp. from people who aren't offering constructive criticism or alternatives frustrating | 06:59 |
ormiret | the flash is e evil point is going to be made repeatly, you just need to keep explaining why you are using it and not let it bother you. | 07:00 |
