| johnlittle | nope..Drupal. try now please | 06:13 |
| === somerville32 is a drupal expert. <g> | ||
| somerville32 | I see the page. | 06:14 |
| johnlittle | I forgot to give anonymous users rights to see the aggregator | 06:14 |
| somerville32 | Where can I get the Ubuntu drupal theme? | 06:14 |
| johnlittle | I got it from nixternal after pitching UV to the marketing team and UV has been tweaked from there | 06:16 |
| johnlittle | he gave me the Ubuntu-Chicago theme | 06:16 |
| somerville32 | I can't even watch the videos, lol | 06:17 |
| somerville32 | I don't have flash installed | 06:17 |
| johnlittle | interesting post on Fedora Burgundavia - Will Redhat ever stop shooting itself in the foot? | 06:17 |
| johnlittle | There's a flash free section on the right side | 06:17 |
| Burgundavia | indeed | 06:18 |
| johnlittle | That company has burned so much goodwill its not even funny | 06:18 |
| elkbuntu | MitchM_, ping? | 06:18 |
| Burgundavia | johnlittle: interesting comment I heard from jane: "We are going to get the community right and then work on getting the company right" | 06:26 |
| johnlittle | That's so awesome. They get it. | 06:27 |
| Burgundavia | ya, canonical really does | 06:29 |
| Burgundavia | and it comes from the toip | 06:29 |
| Burgundavia | top, rather | 06:29 |
| Burgundavia | you, know, resumes are really bad ways to see what somebody has done | 06:29 |
| elkbuntu | yep | 06:30 |
| nixternal | Burgundavia: you know what..no more kde jokes out of you..i just saw your goofball arse doing the hokey pokey on stage ;) | 06:30 |
| johnlittle | Yeah I don't expect them to lose that as long as Mark and co. are around to establish the culture | 06:30 |
| Burgundavia | I am updating my resume currently | 06:30 |
| nixternal | must be a canadian or gnome thing ;) | 06:30 |
| Burgundavia | right | 06:30 |
| elkbuntu | nixternal, rofl | 06:30 |
| johnlittle | Yeah I just put some of my resume online...ugh my resume is so weird | 06:30 |
| nixternal | hahaha | 06:31 |
| nixternal | i just now saw that for the first time..i forgot about it when you posted it earlier | 06:31 |
| Burgundavia | how do I really tell people about all the things I do within the Ubuntu community | 06:31 |
| Burgundavia | the list of things I do within ubuntu is huge, but lots of it is little stuff | 06:31 |
| nixternal | Burgundavia: that is tough | 06:31 |
| elkbuntu | Burgundavia, write a novel? | 06:31 |
| Burgundavia | at least the company I am applying for gets open source | 06:31 |
| elkbuntu | i think you just about need to | 06:31 |
| nixternal | Burgundavia: i gave a speach and i was asked that same question...i didn't want to ramble on with the little things and sound like an ego maniac | 06:32 |
| Burgundavia | yep | 06:32 |
| nixternal | so i said, do a little dev, packaging, doc, and advocacy...interested in others, check out the wiki ;) | 06:32 |
| johnlittle | You're going to have to summarize it and describe it from a macro level - I'd leave most of the details out | 06:32 |
| johnlittle | Unless the technical details are relevant to whattever youre applying for | 06:33 |
| johnlittle | You may need a few different resumes. | 06:33 |
| Burgundavia | yep | 06:35 |
| Burgundavia | luckily the person has basically said yes | 06:35 |
| johnlittle | lol..new job? | 06:36 |
| Burgundavia | maybe, we will see | 06:37 |
| johnlittle | I just got a pitch on a new marketing venture one of my clients is launching. Not sure what will happen though. | 06:37 |
| johnlittle | I need a new job badly though. | 06:37 |
| elkbuntu | heck, i need a job. forget the new part :( | 06:38 |
| johnlittle | Not working right now? | 06:38 |
| elkbuntu | nope. job market sucks here at the moment | 06:38 |

| elkbuntu | has done for a while. i havent yet had a job since i finished my diploma end of last november.. and now we're in september :| | 06:39 |

| elkbuntu | johnlittle, rofl | 06:40 |
| nixternal | heh, i got busted in class last night..the teach popped up my screen and there was the counter...i was adding another machine ;) | 06:41 |
| johnlittle | lol | 06:41 |
| elkbuntu | rofl | 06:41 |
| nixternal | shameless plug really ;) | 06:41 |
| === elkbuntu cheers for nixternal | ||
| Burgundavia | nixternal: you had better work on UWN | 06:41 |
| nixternal | i was using krdc to connect to this computer...and had it full screen..she was like wtf..how did you get kubuntu installed | 06:41 |
| nixternal | dude..i worked on a knot 2 release all night | 06:42 |
| nixternal | UWN still has a couple of days ;) | 06:42 |
| Burgundavia | is your teacher clued in | 06:42 |
| elkbuntu | did you guys mention the system76 sticker offer in uwn when they started that? | 06:42 |
| Burgundavia | no, I want to get UWN finished by tomorrow night | 06:42 |
| nixternal | we need this marketing team to hit up the UWN | 06:42 |
| === Burgundavia whips elkbuntu and johnlittle | ||
| nixternal | Burgundavia: we need to start hitting up doco big time..2 weeks to go | 06:42 |
| Burgundavia | ya, I know | 06:42 |

| nixternal | doing a Ubuntu talk on Sunday, and doing an Ubuntu booth on Wednesday at the college | 07:51 |
| Madpilot | nixternal, I'll put the SVG up on my site in just a moment, you can play with that and create your own PNG | 07:52 |
| nixternal | heh, svn + nixternal == poopies | 07:52 |
| nixternal | svg rather | 07:52 |
| nixternal | im rather decent with svn ;) | 07:52 |
| Madpilot | OK, I'll crank out a big high-rez PNG for you right now, then :) | 07:52 |
| nixternal | i will wait for the svg, cuz i can do editing..just not the fancy graphic stuff like you do | 07:53 |
| nixternal | although..i see no need to edit that | 07:53 |
| Madpilot | the copy needs work, IMO. I was going to sic Burgundavia on it, he's even better at copy editing than I am | 07:53 |
| nixternal | actually..ya, i didn't read it | 07:53 |
| nixternal | just looked at the purtyness ;) | 07:53 |
| Madpilot | heh | 07:54 |
| Madpilot | one minor problem with it is that it's designed for edge-to-edge printing on 8.5x11, and most of us can't print edge-to-edge at home... it's easily resized, though | 07:54 |
| nixternal | whew..i think i can do edge to edge..if not staples or office max can do it for me rather quickly | 07:55 |
| Madpilot | http://www.warbard.ca/temp/Ubuntu_Pamphlet.svg <-- SVG; Opera doesn't display it properly but Inkscape had better | 07:56 |
| ormiret | firefox doesn't do very well either | 07:57 |
| nixternal | firefox will eventually..it just takes forever for the black to disappear | 07:58 |
| nixternal | thanks for that Madpilot..i will put that to use this week | 07:58 |
| Madpilot | didn't think it would; neither has SVG rendering as good as Inkscape's | 07:58 |
| Madpilot | nixternal, one change I was thinking of making was an extra box along the bottom, for LoCos & groups to put their own contact info in - want me to add that right now? | 07:58 |
| nixternal | it doesn't have to be right now | 07:59 |
| nixternal | but that is a good idea | 07:59 |
| nixternal | as i was going to probably add some Ubuntu Chicago info to it | 07:59 |
| nixternal | it seems i have infiltrated a couple of LUGs and now I am giving a couple of talks about the Ubuntu Project this week | 07:59 |
| nixternal | I am doing a thing at the college in the next few weeks that is "Edutainment for Youngsters" | 08:00 |
| nixternal | i need to get cracking on a couple of Edubuntu setups and try and get in on that | 08:00 |

| jenda | elkbuntu: be sure to post a link as soon as it appears somewhere | 12:01 |
| elkbuntu | hell yeah | 12:01 |
| jenda | I'll generate some traffic from the Czech community... | 12:02 |
| jenda | ...in fact, i'll set you as an example for them :-D | 12:02 |
| elkbuntu | hehe | 12:02 |
| elkbuntu | i didnt even go looking for this either.. she emailed me :| | 12:02 |
| jenda | nice :) | 12:03 |
| jenda | You might have noticed the guy Martin Man on the mailing list? | 12:03 |
| elkbuntu | sounds familiar ;) | 12:03 |
| jenda | He's the guy who invited me to speak for Ubuntu at the University here in Prague. It was a gathering of OpenSolaris users. | 12:03 |
| elkbuntu | cool | 12:04 |
| jenda | It was quite cool too. But nothing compared to press coverage :-D | 12:04 |
| elkbuntu | im glad i havent been sucked into anything like that yet | 12:04 |
| jenda | gah, it was OK. And I got a free pizza :-D | 12:05 |
| elkbuntu | hehe | 12:06 |
| elkbuntu | im probably going to get free nothing, but at least i didnt have to talk in front of people | 12:06 |
| jenda | Was it an online interview, or how? (me scrolls once again) | 12:07 |
| elkbuntu | 12:07 | |
| jenda | aha, a statement? | 12:07 |
| elkbuntu | she asked questiosns about ubuntu, i answered | 12:07 |
| elkbuntu | yeah | 12:07 |
| jenda | ok, cool. | 12:07 |
| elkbuntu | more like a statement | 12:07 |
| jenda | care to share your answers? or will they publish it in full? | 12:08 |
| elkbuntu | i dont know what parts she's going to use.. i think im a source more than anything else | 12:08 |
| elkbuntu | i'd rather wait until after publication.. to be polite | 12:08 |
| jenda | OK | 12:08 |
| jenda | sure | 12:08 |
| === jenda cheers elkbuntu | ||
| elkbuntu | jdub's the only one who's seen them, and that was to make sure i wasnt going to make a fool of us all | 12:09 |
| jenda | yo, great news - paypal opened in the Czech Republic... so I won't have to pretend to be French anymore :) | 12:10 |
| jenda | ... and I have hope of actually being able to withdraw the money now :) | 12:10 |
| jenda | Which means... I'll be shipping Ubuntu Posters soon. | 12:10 |
| elkbuntu | jenda, yay! | 12:11 |
| jenda | You didn't think I wanted to pass stickers off as marketing material, did you :) | 12:12 |
| jenda | just a poll | 12:12 |
| jenda | how much would you folks be willing to pay for an Ubuntu poster, and how many would you be willing to buy for that price? | 12:12 |
| Madpilot | that would depend entirely on the design & content of said posters, really ;) | 12:13 |

| jenda | Well, it's you who make the poster :) The community... or at least, you suggest what I put on it. | 12:14 |
| jenda | :-d | 12:14 |
| elkbuntu | jenda, run a poster design comp :) | 12:21 |
| jenda | I will | 12:21 |
| elkbuntu | what size would you be anticipating? | 12:21 |
| jenda | A3 | 12:21 |
| jenda | or should I go smaller? | 12:22 |
| elkbuntu | heck no | 12:22 |
| jenda | good | 12:22 |
| jenda | I might make two variants | 12:22 |
| elkbuntu | i'd love a huge one | 12:22 |
| Madpilot | how big is A3? (sorry, dumb North American here, can't think in 'A' paper sizes...) | 12:24 |
| jenda | hehe | 12:24 |
| elkbuntu | Madpilot, 2x sheet of paper size | 12:24 |
| jenda | close to 2 letter sizes | 12:24 |
| jenda | next to each other | 12:24 |
| Madpilot | OK, good small poster size | 12:25 |
| elkbuntu | yah, wouldnt want any smaller | 12:25 |
| elkbuntu | it'd be nice to have one double the size again though | 12:25 |
| Madpilot | I'll fire up Inkscape sometime soon and see what I can come up with | 12:25 |
| jenda | Yeah, but a bigger one would be harder to push for a public library/school etc. | 12:25 |
| jenda | Madpilot: would be great. | 12:25 |
| jenda | I'll post on the forums, and it's bound to get a lot of attention. | 12:25 |
| elkbuntu | i'll do the same, but i need to go do something !computer before i get rsi :S | 12:26 |
| jenda | I have RL work before I start drawing myself, but I'll try too. | 12:26 |
| Madpilot | need sleep - later all | 12:27 |
| jenda | Hmm, I might make a few zillion of Madpilot's pamphlets too :) | 12:31 |

| MenZa | oh nice | 03:34 |
| MenZa | argh, laggy windows D: | 03:34 |
| jenda | And I suck at it, totally ;) | 03:34 |
| jenda | do you know how to make tooltips on a site? | 03:34 |
| MenZa | tooltips? | 03:35 |
| MenZa | You can't without JavaScript | 03:35 |
| jenda | OK | 03:35 |
| jenda | So I'll just add it as italics underneath. | 03:35 |
| jenda | right... how do I put a line in italics? | 03:36 |
| jenda | :-D | 03:36 |
| MenZa | <em> | 03:37 |
| MenZa | (before) | 03:37 |
| MenZa | and </em> afterwards | 03:37 |

| MenZa | don't asplode the validity! | 03:38 |

| === jenda wonders what asplode the validity means... :) | ||
| jenda | Do you do that in a text editor, or is there a wysiwig? | 03:38 |
| jenda | (nvu can't open php) | 03:38 |
| === jenda peeks into #php and runs | ||
| MenZa | Don't use WYSIWYG! | 03:40 |
| jenda | too many people for newb questions :) | 03:40 |
| jenda | hehe | 03:40 |
| MenZa | That breaks validity :) | 03:40 |
| MenZa | Ask elkbuntu if you need further help, I'm extreeeeemely busy these days | 03:40 |

| elkbuntu | Kamping_Kaiser, i was in bed trying to sleep but i think im too hyped to sleep just now | 03:49 |

| jenda | You deserve the hype, elkbuntu | 03:49 |
| elkbuntu | hehe.. i hope the reporter lady does the articles right :| | 03:49 |
| elkbuntu | what did you need help with jenda? | 03:50 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | elkbuntu, :( | 03:50 |
| jenda | MenZa: can I bother you one more time? I think I lost the link to the picture of your stickers _again_... | 03:50 |
| jenda | elkbuntu: Don't worry, it'll come out somehow. And don't forget that it's a lot better that it will seem to you, the embarassed party :-D | 03:50 |
| elkbuntu | hehe yeah | 03:51 |
| jenda | elkbuntu: have a look at the link three minutes ago | 03:51 |

| MenZa | elkbuntu: no using deprecated tags now! | 03:52 |
| MenZa | :D | 03:52 |
| jenda | I have been confronted with the unpleasant reality that I'm totally incapable of making websites... not even when they have, in fact, been created for me :-D | 03:52 |
| === MenZa slaps elkbuntu around a bit with an <i> and a <b> | ||
| jenda | MenZa: duh, your famous flickr :) thx | 03:52 |
| MenZa | jenda: sif | 03:52 |

| MenZa | I don't have anymore of those, I think | 03:56 |
| MenZa | I suppose I could print a few | 03:56 |
| jenda | are they keycap stickers? | 03:56 |
| jenda | Don't stress it, but I like the idea. | 03:56 |
| MenZa | lol | 03:56 |
| jenda | I wouldn't like a sticker on a key, though. | 03:56 |
| MenZa | Yeah, just little stickers with the logo on them | 03:56 |
| MenZa | :D | 03:56 |
| MenZa | They're not annoying at all :) | 03:56 |
| jenda | elkbuntu: The thing I'd need help with is just about everything about that site. | 03:57 |
| elkbuntu | is this the site menza was doing for you? | 03:58 |
| jenda | yes | 03:58 |
| jenda | We both figured I'd be able to finish it myself... but alas :-D | 03:58 |
| elkbuntu | tgz the files and send them through to me, i'll work on it tomorrow | 03:59 |
| jenda | Sending. | 04:01 |
| jenda | I'll be around tomorrow to discuss. | 04:01 |

| === Kamping_Kaiser has some of jdubs hair. i'm going to give some back at lca2k8 | ||
| elkbuntu | they have shipit et al | 04:06 |
| === elkbuntu raises and eyebrow at Kamping_Kaiser | ||
| jenda | We have the Isle of Man, so buzz off. | 04:06 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | depends if GB is part of the contenent :) | 04:06 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | jenda, its an island.... not a contentent :P | 04:07 |
| jenda | But it's in Europe. :) | 04:07 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | its just offshore, yes | 04:07 |
| elkbuntu | it's just not part of the EU iirc, right? | 04:07 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | elkbuntu, dont look at me in that toine of eyebrow ;P | 04:07 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | right. | 04:07 |
| elkbuntu | technically they win. they got shuttleworth | 04:07 |
| jenda | elkbuntu: GB is. | 04:07 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | gb? since when o_0 | 04:08 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | brb. tafe work. back in ~5 min | 04:09 |

| jenda | Kamping_Kaiser: Since January 1, 1973 | 04:11 |
| jenda | aha, but excluding the Isle of Man :( | 04:12 |
| elkbuntu | jenda, where does shuttleworth live though :P | 04:12 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | lol jenda :\ | 04:13 |
| jenda | London, dunnhe? | 04:13 |
| elkbuntu | afaik | 04:13 |
| elkbuntu | that means you have the sabdfl.. we got the jdub.. i think we should concede ;) | 04:13 |
| jenda | hehe ;) | 04:13 |
| jenda | "The Isle of Man holds neither membership nor associate membership of the European Union, and lies outside the European Economic Area (EEA)" | 04:14 |
| elkbuntu | wouldnt that be why canonical was established there, cos of the EU FOSS politics? | 04:15 |
| jenda | maybe | 04:15 |
| elkbuntu | sounds logical to me :) | 04:16 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | only the great unquestionable sabdfl can tell you for sure ;) | 04:16 |
| elkbuntu | hehe | 04:16 |
| elkbuntu | jenda, um.. did you forget to like attach something with that email? | 04:17 |
| jenda | elkbuntu: um, did I now ;) | 04:18 |
| elkbuntu | i see no file anywhere ;) | 04:18 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | elkbuntu, wow, that sounds familar :P | 04:18 |
| elkbuntu | i put a picture in the email karl, not my fault tb pooped it off somewhere | 04:18 |

| Kamping_Kaiser | :( | 04:23 |
| elkbuntu | i think need to go on a FOSS web makeover | 04:23 |
| Klaidas | or a GWDMIOP web makeover ;)) | 04:23 |
| === Kamping_Kaiser needs to work out what the site has to do with standards... i think its a trick question | ||
| Klaidas | ^^ (good working doesn't matter is oper source) | 04:24 |
| Klaidas | *if open | 04:24 |
| elkbuntu | not because of the iso.org site... but there's some really horrible sites out there for some really good open source stuff | 04:25 |
| Klaidas | heh | 04:25 |
| Klaidas | like screen's website? | 04:25 |
| elkbuntu | probably. if it's on sourceforge, there's a 50% chance of a crapola website | 04:25 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | lol | 04:26 |
| Klaidas | I have another theory :) | 04:26 |
| Klaidas | If it's very good, free and open source | 04:26 |
| Klaidas | that means it's been done by either hardcore geeks | 04:26 |
| Klaidas | or very cool people | 04:26 |
| elkbuntu | most good developers cant design for crap, known fact. why else is alot of good software equipped with less than brilliant guis | 04:27 |
| Klaidas | most of the time, it's hardcore geek :) they can code, but not write good manual/create websites :/ | 04:27 |
| elkbuntu | arrived safely jenda :) | 04:27 |
| jenda | yay :) | 04:28 |
| elkbuntu | i should go try that sleep thing again | 04:29 |
