poningruBurgundavia: the book you guys wrote was cc?04:45
Burgundaviaponingru: yes04:46
poningrugrr04:51
poningruI asked the publisher and they said it was copyrighted all rights04:51
tonyyarussoIt says Copyright 2007 Canonical, Ltd. ; This book is published under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 open publication license.  <URL>04:53
tonyyarusso(How can it be copyrighted a year that hasn't happened yet?)04:53
Burgundaviahmm, interesting04:56
tonyyarussoDoes say "All rights reserved" right after that too.04:56
tonyyarussoThen the standard "This publication is protected by copyright, and permission must be optained from the publisher prior to any prohibited reproduction, storage in a retrieval system, or transmission in any form or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording, or likewise unless permitted under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license 2.0.  For information regarding permissions, write to:  <address>04:58
tonyyarussoBurgundavia: That all seems somewhat self-contradictory to me.04:58
tonyyarusso(Although I'm not familiar with the text of that license.)04:58
poningruhmm weird04:59
poningruI asked the Florida rep for the publisher04:59
poningruand she was like yeah all our books are fully copyrighted04:59
poningruI never got a chance to take a look at a physical copy04:59
tonyyarussoWell I'd assume it's copyrighted for real, but I don't think it's "All rights reserved".05:03
elkbuntuconspiracy!05:15
Madpilotstuff can be both copyrighted & CC-licenced05:16
elkbuntuMadpilot, read what tonyyarusso said.. it sorta seems to contradict05:17
Madpilotnot really - the "...unless permitted under..." is the key here05:18
elkbuntuhmm.. suppose05:19
MadpilotI did a seminar thru my union on reading legal docs; it's proven to be the best thing the union ever did for me :)05:19
elkbuntuheh05:20
elkbuntuoh how i love how angus&robertson put stuff into their db.. like keep a single format for the whole of a field, dont be stupid "Author: Benjamin; Bacon, Jono; Burger, Corey & others Hill"05:22

=== elkbuntu wonders if the pokey little store here has the book
elkbuntuhttp://www.angusrobertson.com.au/search/results.asp?searchbycriteria=ubuntu&searchby=title&submit_search.x=0&submit_search.y=0&submit_search=search05:22
elkbuntu"& others Hill" is the best bit05:23
elkbuntucool they list it as a best seller05:24
elkbuntuoh ffs.. it's like it all over the place05:27
elkbuntuheh, another bookshop lists the author as just "Mako"05:31
tonyyarussoI got it at Barnes & Noble, but I had to order; there weren't any in stock.  They told me they had hardcover, which turned out not to be true.05:32

jendaponingru, why use the edgy version?08:06
=== poningru shrugs
jendaer, nevermind, I get it.08:06
jenda(it makes sense for dapperers to upgrade, but not for edgyers to dg)08:06
poningruit had a lot more features... and almost everyone at the time who was here was using edgy08:06
poningruyeah08:06
nixternalso are we doing gobby?08:11
jendauniverse freeze - do you have that in there?08:12
poningrunixternal: cant too many people without it08:15

nixternalglad you said that, almost connected ;)08:15
nixternalhow hard is it to apt-get it ;)08:15
poningrunixternal: hehe the prob is dapper gobby will not talk to the edgy gobby :(08:15
nixternalwell, people shouldn't be using dappah ;)08:16
nixternaland it seems as if gobby stunk it up on that..that should be a bug08:16
nixternalGobby 0.4 is available in the repos for dapper08:17
nixternalnot ubuntu repos, but you can grab it from the debian/dapper repos08:17
