|---|---|---|
| elkbuntu | Burgundavia, sorry about my poor effort on the UWN.. it's crazy here atm | 06:38 |
| Burgundavia | who wants to help me with UWN right now! | 06:38 |
| elkbuntu | i read your mind. i'm cool | 06:38 |
| nixternal | lets do this | 06:38 |
| nixternal | since im slow on docs right now, except for the handbook, which needs massive amounts of help | 06:38 |
| Burgundavia | ok, transferring to gobby | 06:39 |
| === imbrandon [n=imbrando@ubuntu/member/pdpc.active.imbrandon] has joined #ubuntu-marketing | ||
| nixternal | uh oh | 06:40 |
| nixternal | is it me, or is this a 2 week edition? | 06:40 |
| elkbuntu | i think we probably need to make it a 2 week edition, say we lost a week and get over it | 06:41 |
| elkbuntu | because at this rate, it's ridiculous | 06:41 |
| Burgundavia | no, lets get this one out | 06:41 |
| Burgundavia | we can release the next one on tuesday of next week | 06:42 |
| Burgundavia | somebody want to do meetings, etc. | 06:43 |
| Burgundavia | I am going to dig into edgy stuff | 06:43 |
| Burgundavia | todo: | 06:43 |
| Burgundavia | security updates | 06:43 |
| Burgundavia | 6.06 updates | 06:43 |

| Burgundavia | heh | 06:45 |
| Burgundavia | so this one ends on teh 14th | 06:45 |
| nixternal | i used to hate doing the meetings | 06:45 |
| elkbuntu | Burgundavia, yes... we are 6 days behind | 06:45 |
| Burgundavia | I am fully aware of that | 06:45 |
| elkbuntu | Burgundavia, which is why it's probably an idea to 'get over it' and do a 2-weeker :) | 06:45 |
| Burgundavia | that is way too much crap | 06:46 |
| Burgundavia | especially the edgy stuff | 06:46 |
| elkbuntu | then we be picky. we dont have to put every single world-wide mention of ubuntu into it | 06:46 |
| nixternal | 8 security issues total | 06:47 |
| Burgundavia | hush you | 06:47 |
| Burgundavia | nixternal: for which period | 06:47 |
| Burgundavia | you elected me editor in chief] | 06:47 |
| Burgundavia | I am making decision :) | 06:47 |
| nixternal | from the last release, until now | 06:47 |

| nixternal | hrmm | 06:48 |
| poningru | lol | 06:48 |
| nixternal | im a bush supporter, so watch out, cuz i will wage war | 06:48 |
| nixternal | im sure you have weapons of mass destruction somewhere | 06:48 |
| elkbuntu | ugh | 06:48 |
| === poningru wages war on nixternal | ||
| === nixternal puts up his force field | ||

| imbrandon | anyhow i come to marketing with a request ( and the veteran elkbuntu ) a call for people to help me orginise ubuntu-midwest LoCo , thus if someone wants to poke it into the UWN i would be greatfull ( hint hint ) | 06:53 |
| nixternal | hrmm | 06:53 |
| === imbrandon go's back to work | ||
| nixternal | don't be scoping my grounds homey | 06:53 |

| Burgundavia | nixternal: be nice, stop voting for bush and all that | 06:54 |
| nixternal | i can't vote for him anymore | 06:54 |
| Burgundavia | thankfully | 06:54 |
| poningru | imbrandon: you do know about newz2000? | 06:54 |

| nixternal | hime and troy from the forums | 06:55 |
| imbrandon | poningru, yea i talk to him regularly | 06:55 |
| Burgundavia | the worst part was, the rest of the world almost universally loathed the man, yet we can't vote against him but we did have to deal with it | 06:55 |
| poningru | imbrandon: iirc he is in the midwest | 06:55 |
| === poningru can grep his logs | ||
| elkbuntu | imbrandon, if you're at the forefront of that loco, you should probably be #ubuntu-locoteams :) | 06:55 |
| nixternal | tis ok, i know the exchange hit the 12k mark today, making me even more money | 06:55 |
| nixternal | imbrandon: and when you do get the loco, get jbrouhard out of my channel and into yours ;) | 06:56 |
| elkbuntu | lol | 06:56 |
| imbrandon | nixternal, noooooooooooo | 06:56 |
| elkbuntu | nixternal, you cant get rid of them. we still have a new zealander in our channel :( | 06:56 |
| nixternal | i already have Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana and Michigan members | 06:56 |

| elkbuntu | poningru, innocent factoids in #ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic do wonders :) | 06:57 |
| poningru | rofl | 06:57 |
| === poningru is banned from #ubuntu-offtopic | ||
| elkbuntu | o.O | 06:58 |
| elkbuntu | how the hell did you manage that? | 06:58 |
| === poningru made a joke much like [00:48:49] * poningru wages war on nixternal | ||
| poningru | [00:49:04] <poningru> someone check the coc to see if thats ok or not | 06:58 |
| elkbuntu | have you tried joining it recently? | 06:59 |
| poningru | except iirc it was on gays or something | 06:59 |
| === poningru shrugs | ||
| poningru | not really | 06:59 |

| poningru | plus I cant with freenodes channel limit | 06:59 |
| poningru | so meh | 06:59 |
| elkbuntu | poningru, annoy a staffer and ask for more channels | 06:59 |
| Madpilot | poningru, you do know that normal bans only last 48hrs, right? | 06:59 |
| poningru | elkbuntu: they let you do that?? | 07:00 |
| elkbuntu | poningru, sure. how else do you think there are some people in a list of channels longer than your arm? | 07:00 |
| poningru | they have longer arms than mine? | 07:01 |

| mdke | good work on UWN people | 09:48 |
| === jenda missed this UWN | ||
| elkbuntu | mdke, heh.. pity about the tardiness of it though :( | 10:47 |
| jenda | Anyone have a clue where the sleeve for the Ubuntu DVD could be DL'd? | 10:48 |
| === jenda cowers in shame not to be able to find it | ||
| elkbuntu | jenda, is there not one on the diy wiki page? | 10:48 |
| jenda | only CD and breezy DVD | 10:49 |
| elkbuntu | :( | 10:52 |
| jenda | seems he is happy with the cd version - nevermind that, then. | 10:57 |
| jenda | I s'pose the DVD cover is owned by amazon. | 10:57 |
| elkbuntu | probably | 10:58 |
| elkbuntu | no harm in creating one yourself though ;) | 11:00 |
| jenda | hehe ;) | 11:00 |

| jenda | Huzzah MenZa ;) | 02:24 |
| MenZa | Heya :) | 02:25 |
| jenda | What's up, you two ;) | 02:25 |
| MenZa | Oh not much | 02:25 |
| MenZa | I just got Evanescence's new album :9 | 02:25 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | i'm trying to do tafe work, but i'm to stuffed - even after napping | 02:25 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | jenda, you need a bank acco87unt for some reason? | 02:28 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | *account | 02:28 |
| jenda | yes :) | 02:28 |
| jenda | I have some cash on my paypal, but no way of extracting it without an account. | 02:28 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | rofl :D | 02:28 |
| jenda | ATM, it's 100, but presumably, I will rotate about 400 over the course of time for them posters : | 02:29 |
| jenda | :) | 02:30 |
| jenda | I can't afford to pay for the posters till I get my 100 | 02:30 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | i'm impressed you managed this long without an account | 02:30 |
| jenda | hehe | 02:35 |
| jenda | It was a really pressing issue. I was too lazy though :) | 02:35 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | *grin*, your reminding me i need to change bank. | 02:35 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | i'm too lazy though ;) | 02:35 |
| jenda | The great thing is that the Czech 'Sporitelna' gives me an account, a debit card, a credit card and all the online services for free + a 200 CZK ($10) annual bonus just because I'm a student :) :) :) | 02:35 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | wow. fair effort. | 02:35 |
| jenda | very | 02:35 |
| jenda | and I pay $0.10 for transfers and $0.25 for incoming payments, such as paypal | 02:35 |
| jenda | Sounds fair to me. | 02:35 |
| jenda | But if I disappear from IRC within the next year, it's prolly because they pulled my pants over some trick I didn't notice and I had to sell my lappy ;) | 02:36 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | eek! may it never get to that :) | 02:37 |
| jenda | I guess i could read the thick stack of conditions etc. they gave me, now that I'm a lawyer :) | 02:42 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | jenda, i'll send you my banks, and you can tell me what it means :P | 02:42 |
| jenda | Kamping_Kaiser: ok, sure no problem, anytime... | 02:42 |
| jenda | ... it'll be $135.20 | 02:42 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | US or NZ? ;) | 02:42 |
| jenda | umm... lemme check the conversion rates... | 02:42 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | *rofl* | 02:42 |
| jenda | can be either :) | 02:42 |
| jenda | 1 NZD is 14 CZK, so $135.20 is still a fair deal for me :) | 02:42 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | :) tahts only $120~ in AUD then (135NZ~) | 02:42 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | :) | 02:42 |
| === jenda has daily currency updates from xe.com in his inbox | ||
| jenda | rather useful, imo :) | 02:42 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | xe.com=cool, but i dont convert currency that much :) | 02:42 |
| jenda | I just got an envelope in the mail today with a 200 Slovak crown bill | 02:42 |
| jenda | WTF am I gonna do with it I dunno :) | 02:42 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | wallpapering? :D | 02:42 |
| jenda | (we go to slovakia twice a year, so it won't be _that_ much trouble :)) | 02:42 |
| jenda | How do I add attachments to the wiki? | 02:43 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | :) | 02:43 |
| jenda | (damn i should know that ;)) | 02:43 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | :D | 02:44 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | dropdown menu | 02:44 |
| jenda | got it :) | 02:45 |
| === jenda bangs head :) | ||
| Kamping_Kaiser | *grin* | 02:46 |
| tonyyarusso | jenda: I have a Slovak friend here at school that would probably be happy to have that show up in the mail. | 02:51 |
| jenda | :) | 02:53 |
| jenda | I'm happy too, don't worry :) | 02:53 |
| jenda | It's money all the same - and it's the money I put in the stickers. | 02:53 |
| jenda | Money coming back after you gave it away definitely must feel better than new money :) | 02:53 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | jenda, i agree :) | 02:55 |

| lophyte | grenegar: how goes the effort in Winnipeg? | 04:56 |
| grenegar | lophyte: it goes slowly, but steadily. | 04:59 |
| grenegar | i find it interesting when i talk to people about ubuntu.... | 04:59 |
| grenegar | many are intrigued by the powerful, yet free, capability. | 05:02 |
| grenegar | however the biggest barrier is change and learning something new | 05:02 |
| grenegar | from what's I've read lately, it seems that Vista will be very good for Ubuntu - everyone I talk to would rather make an effort to try something new than spend money on hardware and software | 05:05 |
| lophyte | not to mention all the DRM and stupid crap that Vista is bringing with it | 05:06 |
| lophyte | we're gonna be bringing a 12-foot inflatable Tux to the Vista launch party in Toronto | 05:08 |
| elkbuntu | rofl | 05:10 |
| grenegar | no doubt. people i talk to *hate* the idea of being restricted. i work at a university and our network admins are none-to-thrilled about tossing the corporate install disc and having to set up a dedicated license server. | 05:10 |
| grenegar | lophyte: I love it!! I *need* pictures of this! | 05:10 |
| lophyte | hehe, there will be | 05:10 |
| elkbuntu | and video | 05:10 |
| lophyte | I think we should do an all-out protest | 05:10 |
| lophyte | make some noise | 05:11 |
| lophyte | get some media coverage :P | 05:11 |
| grenegar | that's awesome! | 05:12 |
| lophyte | people protest all the time over controversial things... | 05:12 |
| lophyte | so why not this? | 05:12 |
| lophyte | this *IS* controversial, people just don't realize it | 05:12 |
| grenegar | should definitely generate some exposure for all things tux | 05:13 |
| lophyte | indeed | 05:13 |
| jenda | lophyte: omg... Iwannacome!!! | 05:13 |
| lophyte | and they can't ask us to leave, as long as we're protesting peacefully | 05:13 |
| lophyte | they could ask us to take down the penguin probably, but not leave... | 05:14 |
| lophyte | we have the right to peaceful gathering | 05:14 |

| grenegar | --> tux shirts for all | 05:14 |
| lophyte | hehe, yeah :) | 05:14 |
| lophyte | now I'm considering making a sign, hehe | 05:14 |
| lophyte | yay protests | 05:14 |
| lophyte | I can't say I've ever heard of open source protesting.. but why not? that's how everyone else who's trying to promote a cause makes noise | 05:16 |
| lophyte | if a law is going to be passed that a large group of people disagree with, they protest | 05:16 |
| === Kamping_Kaiser [n=kgoetz@easyubuntu/docteam/kgoetz] has joined #ubuntu-marketing | ||
| grenegar | "'computer folks' everywhere are protesting against having a lowered quality of living... | 05:22 |
| lophyte | lol | 05:22 |
| grenegar | "one guys said 'I constantly have to clean spyware and viruses from all my friend's and family's computers, I become somewhat depressed, and may end up costing the health system as a result" lol | 05:23 |
| lophyte | hahaha | 05:23 |
| elkbuntu | rofl | 05:25 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | lmao | 05:25 |
| lophyte | honestly though, I don't think a protest is too far-fetched | 05:26 |
| lophyte | how else can we make noise to the masses | 05:26 |

| Burgundavia | gettinh ubuntu taled about in the press | 05:28 |
| lophyte | indeed.. and open source in general | 05:29 |
| grenegar | totally agree. using and supporting M$ stuff leads to Office Space style anxiety. Many corporate environments are locked in to M$ to some extent, so computer professionals working in that environment are essentially an oppressed minority group. Definitely a reason to protest. | 05:31 |
| elkbuntu | Burgundavia, you mean so long as it's not done the reiser way? | 05:31 |
| lophyte | lol | 05:31 |
| lophyte | grenegar: using and supporting anything that contains DRM technology | 05:32 |
| lophyte | though telling everyone that their ipods are bad for them wouldn't go over so well :P | 05:32 |
| grenegar | lophyte: ya, DRM, binary file formats and closed-source binary applications. | 05:33 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | lophyte, no, but its the truth | 05:36 |
| lophyte | indeed | 05:36 |
| grenegar | IT guy --> hand tied | 05:36 |
| grenegar | kicked in groin (optionally) | 05:36 |
| === Kamping_Kaiser has stopped being diplomatic, i just gear up quick and give people a free software rant | ||
| grenegar | Kamping_Kaiser: lol, i just strong arm my way to the computer, shield others from the computer with my body while loading Ubuntu. lol! | 05:38 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | rofl | 05:38 |
| lophyte | nice, I got some ideas flowing | 05:39 |
| lophyte | I've got a cool idea for a commercial, hehe | 05:39 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | later all, i'm going to crash | 05:39 |
| lophyte | a guy dressed up nicely, clearly an IT type guy, sitting in a cubical with his hands tied behind his back, trying to work on his computer | 05:40 |
| grenegar | (typing with tongue) | 05:40 |
| lophyte | hehe, yeah | 05:40 |
| lophyte | or feet | 05:40 |
| grenegar | lol | 05:40 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | drat. i want to see thsi converstaion - i'll try and find logs later :( looks like it will be fun | 05:40 |
| lophyte | hehe | 05:40 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | tougng would be better | 05:40 |
| Kamping_Kaiser | 'easier' :P | 05:40 |
| lophyte | I'd really like to shoot a couple of pro-opensource advertisements for fun | 05:41 |
| lophyte | post them up to ubuntuvideo | 05:41 |
| grenegar | and if done well, would develop some internet popularity (Digg, Slashdot,...) | 05:42 |

| gregbuntu | another idea for promotional video: see http://blogs.ubuntu-nl.org/dennis/2006/10/20/drunkbuntu/ | 05:46 |
| gregbuntu | "so easy to use, you can do it while loaded" | 05:47 |
| lophyte | haha | 05:47 |
| gregbuntu | 2 IT guys setting up server for boss, (a) one loading M$ (b) other loading Ubuntu... cut scene to 1 hour later... boss: "what's the status?" guy (a): "almost done setting up the license server, then we can start loading the server up". guy (b) slurring words: "We've been live for half an hour". | 05:51 |
