[05:17] <elkbuntu> johnlittle, how r00d.. they take off the 'honors' after a while :(
[05:17] <elkbuntu> my vid doesnt have it's honors anymore :(
[05:17] <johnlittle> elkbuntu: so you'll make another one.. :)
[05:19] <elkbuntu> run out of ideas, plus, the buggy xorg update made me ruin the laptop's setup.. no more xgl/compiz
[05:20] <elkbuntu> the compiz is sort of needed for that dock
[05:20] <elkbuntu> for it to look right, anyway
[05:21] <johnlittle> theres a big demand for the more mundane tutorial stuff'
[05:23] <johnlittle> http://nucularphisics.blogspot.com/2006/08/holy-turkey.html
[05:23] <johnlittle> Ubuntu in antarctica
[05:24] <johnlittle> um no maybe not
[05:25] <johnlittle> the location says that but the posts don't seem to indicate that at all
[05:25] <johnlittle> anyway im out of my mind on TheraFlu cold medicing..im off to bed :( g'nite
[05:26] <johnlittle> er midicine
[05:26] <Madpilot> sounds more like Location: 1st year university
[05:26] <johnlittle> er you know what i mean
[05:26] <Madpilot> heh. g'night
[08:21] <elkbuntu> yay, so im not the only one half-dead from the flu?
[08:21] <Burgundavia> I just got over something
[08:21] <Burgundavia> UWN on LWN!
[08:22] <elkbuntu> that's 3rd week in a row now, isnt it?
[08:22] <somerville32> I really like that UWN thinger :] 
[08:23] <Burgundavia> elkbuntu: we are always mentioned as part of the weekly news, but this time we are part of their news feed
[08:23] <elkbuntu> ah
[08:23] <Burgundavia> somerville32: always looking for people to help right
[08:23] <Burgundavia> s/right/write/
[08:23] <somerville32> Really? I'd love to help out.
[08:24] <elkbuntu> hmm.. lca 07 extended call for participation :|
[08:24] <Burgundavia> nice, but not really Ubuntu
[08:24] <Burgundavia> unless we want to add a "promoting Ubuntu section
[08:25] <Burgundavia> something I am not really that opposed to
[08:25] <elkbuntu> Burgundavia, that wasnt for the newsletter's sake.. just noting it under the uwn announce on lwn
[08:25] <Burgundavia> yep, but a "this week in promoting Ubuntu" section might be cool
[08:26] <elkbuntu> dont try make me think just now, the results could be scary :|
[08:27] <Burgundavia> indeed
[08:27] <Burgundavia> pretty tired myself
[08:30] <somerville32> So, how do I help write for the newsletter?
[08:30] <Burgundavia> UWN is published every Saturday, usually at midnight PDT
[08:31] <Burgundavia> UWN is published every Saturday, usually at midnight PDT"
[08:31] <Burgundavia> I wear the hat of "sucker that releases it"
[08:31] <elkbuntu> which is great fun when the wiki dies ;)
[08:31] <Burgundavia> it is written on the wiki, at wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue12 (the current issue)
[08:32] <Burgundavia> indeed
[08:32] <Burgundavia> 12 is teh current issue being edited, that is
[08:32] <Burgundavia> it covers development and other news in teh Ubuntu community
[08:32] <Burgundavia> core audience is mostly existing Ubuntu users, and mostly somewhat geeky people
[08:32] <elkbuntu> i was glad for you that you didnt try wait up for it
[08:32] <Burgundavia> I would recommend reading previous issues for back content and general sytle
[08:33] <Burgundavia> indeed
[08:33] <somerville32> So... I can just edit it?
[08:34] <Burgundavia> indeed
[08:34] <Burgundavia> the release annoucement goes out via email to ubuntu-news, which is moderated (I moderate things through)
[08:35] <Burgundavia> so edit the wiki to your hearts content
[08:36] <somerville32> Is there anything specific that I should work on?
[08:36] <Burgundavia> one thing that is good to get your hands dirty is the edgy new apps stuff
[08:36] <somerville32> Also, should I put my name in the credits if I contribute?
[08:36] <Burgundavia> search through the edgy-changes mailing list and bug devs looking for interesting new apps released this week
[08:37] <Burgundavia> and yes, you should
[08:37] <somerville32> Do you moderate the ubuntu-marketing mailing list?
[08:38] <Burgundavia> not currently
[08:38] <Burgundavia> I imagine I will add it to the list of lists I moderate at some point
[08:39] <Burgundavia> stick around in Ubuntu are you too will start collecting rights
[08:39] <Burgundavia> I have been around for 2 years now and my pile is rather large
[08:40] <somerville32> When does UWN #11 come out?
[08:40] <Madpilot> end of this week
[08:41] <Burgundavia> 12 comes out end of this week
[08:41] <Burgundavia> 11 is already out
[08:41] <somerville32> The topic says #10 is out
[08:41] <somerville32> And I don't remember #11 in the fridge
[08:41] <Madpilot> not all the UWN issues make it to the front page of the Fridge
[08:41] <Madpilot> and yeah, 12 is the wip, not 11
[08:41] <Burgundavia> right
[08:45] <somerville32> Could I just pick a piece of software and feature it or should I look for new stuff only?
[08:45] <Madpilot> somerville32, anything, just try not to pick something that's already been featured :)
[08:46] <Burgundavia> for the feature of the week?
[08:46] <Burgundavia> we would love a Kubuntu feature this week, as we try and alternate
[08:46] <somerville32> What about sshfs?
[08:47] <KenSentMe> Good morning everyone
[08:47] <somerville32> Morning
[08:47] <Burgundavia> we could do a non-desktop specific feature
[08:48] <elkbuntu> that would have the non-gui users tickled
[08:50] <somerville32> This is exciting
[08:52] <Burgundavia> I am glad to have more people writing
[08:53] <somerville32> Well, I'm going to goto bed - 4am here
[08:53] <somerville32> I'll start working on an article once I get up
[08:53] <somerville32> Maybe if I wake up in time, I'll be able to do an exclusive on the TB meeting <g> ;] 
[08:55] <Burgundavia> right
[08:59] <somerville32> Night
