nixternal | oh wow, I am totally in disbelief about the Ubuntu Forums | 05:17 |
nixternal | i cannot believe this, they want their own CC or what not, they consider themselves the office ubuntu forums, however they have the power to temporarily lock a thread in order to transfer the information to the UDSF database | 05:19 |

Madpilot | nixternal, the forums have always been their own little universe... | 05:32 |
nixternal | well, they just fell below Gentoo on my useless heirarchy | 05:34 |
nixternal | they are pushing windows | 05:34 |

Kamping_Kaiser | hi | 09:13 |
somerville32 | mdke: Is there anyone leading the Xubuntu documentation effort? Or any contacts? | 09:14 |
Kamping_Kaiser | mdke, can i get just dapper doco from svn, or do i have to wget -mnp it from the web? | 09:18 |
mdke | somerville32: well, there is only one contributor. Called luzi | 09:22 |
mdke | Kamping_Kaiser: yes, "svn checkout url" | 09:22 |
Kamping_Kaiser | mdke, thanks. | 09:22 |
somerville32 | mdke: Someone else will be able to commit if I send in patches, right? | 09:23 |
=== poningru [n=poningru@pool-72-64-211-211.tampfl.fios.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
mdke | somerville32: yes | 09:23 |
mdke | would be good to get some more contribution | 09:24 |
somerville32 | How many patches would I have to send in before I could get svn access? | 09:24 |
Kamping_Kaiser | are the dirs like this: UbuntuDapperDocsSVN/ubuntu/desktopguide/ja localised versions? | 09:24 |
mdke | somerville32: not many, enough to show you can write English and won't commit anything that breaks | 09:25 |
mdke | somerville32: but sending patches is a pretty effective way to contribute already | 09:25 |
mdke | Kamping_Kaiser: yes | 09:25 |
Kamping_Kaiser | ta | 09:25 |
somerville32 | mdke: Should I use the stuff at http://docs.ubuntu.com/xubuntu or pull ro from svn? | 09:26 |
mdke | somerville32: get it from svn and use "svn diff" as described on our wiki pages. The documentation on doc.ubuntu.com is not the source | 09:29 |
mdke | somerville32: definitely read our wiki pages, they describe how to ensure what you send is valid docbook, that's very important too | 09:32 |
=== somerville32 nods. | ||
mdke | see you later | 09:32 |
somerville32 | Thanks :] | 09:32 |

mdke | LaserJock: hi? | 09:04 |
LaserJock | mdke: I'd like to request svn access for Pete Savage (cbx33) | 09:05 |
LaserJock | he worked with me on some Edubuntu docs | 09:05 |
LaserJock | he's an Ubuntu member and MOTU and sent several patches to the mailing list | 09:05 |
mdke | I don't remember the patches, were they ok? | 09:05 |
LaserJock | I'm pretty sure, let me just check my emails real quick | 09:07 |
LaserJock | yep, he's a pretty good writer and does docbook fine. He wants to get cracking on Edubuntu stuff again | 09:08 |
mdke | ok | 09:08 |
LaserJock | I think there will be some more people in the future wanting to get access | 09:08 |
LaserJock | but they need to send patches first | 09:08 |
mdke | good news | 09:08 |
LaserJock | willvdl is working on heading up Edubuntu docs as a part of his employment | 09:09 |
mdke | working on? I thought he *is* | 09:09 |
LaserJock | well yeah | 09:09 |
willvdl | that would be contrary to open development :) | 09:10 |
LaserJock | well, where I come from we'd say he's "riding herd" on Edubuntu docs | 09:10 |
LaserJock | ;-) | 09:10 |
willvdl | I'm trying to get the ball rolling again in tune with UDP movements. In a month I'm going to be sweating in Nigeria so my time is short | 09:12 |
mdke | how long are you in Nigeria? | 09:12 |
willvdl | not sure yet. | 09:14 |
willvdl | probably only two weeks | 09:14 |
mdke | ah | 09:14 |
willvdl | but then I'm in Argentina for March | 09:15 |
mdke | blimey | 09:15 |
mdke | rockstar stuff | 09:15 |
willvdl | nothing glamorous about his work :) | 09:15 |
willvdl | *this | 09:15 |
willvdl | trust me | 09:16 |
LaserJock | mdke: are you ok to request svn access for cbx33 or should I do it? I'm not sure if they'd listen to me :-) | 09:16 |
mdke | I don't mind | 09:16 |
=== rob [i=RobertSt@freenode/staff/rob] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
mdke | LaserJock: so what's the verdict? am I requesting, or are you? | 10:09 |
LaserJock | you are :-) | 10:38 |
mdke | ok | 10:39 |
mdke | LaserJock: Pete Savage/cbx33 has no search results on launchpad. Can you tell me his LP name, and ask him to remedy that? | 10:40 |
mdke | ah, forget the first bit of that | 10:41 |
LaserJock | yeah, he's hard to find on LP | 10:41 |
LaserJock | mdke: got it now? | 10:42 |
mdke | yes, but still. | 10:42 |
LaserJock | but still what? | 10:43 |
mdke | but still, he should fix it | 10:44 |
mdke | btw LaserJock, willvdl: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=317786 | 10:44 |
LaserJock | what is there to "fix" he can't just change his LP id I don't think | 10:44 |
=== nixternal [n=nixterna@ubuntu/member/nixternal] has joined #ubuntu-doc | ||
mdke | LaserJock: he could use his real name | 10:46 |
mdke | instead of a joined up name | 10:46 |
LaserJock | ohhh, on Display Name | 10:47 |
LaserJock | I got it | 10:47 |
mdke | to be fair, a search on "savage" doesn't even turn him up, which must be launchpad's fault | 10:48 |
willvdl | mdke, ogra will be pleased :) | 10:49 |
LaserJock | that's what I've always assumed | 10:49 |
mdke | willvdl: or horrified, one or the other | 10:49 |
willvdl | https://launchpad.net/people/petesavage | 10:49 |
mdke | yeah, I found it from his wiki page | 10:49 |
LaserJock | I always go to one of the teams he's on | 10:50 |
LaserJock | but then I already know what teams he's on | 10:50 |
mdke | only 2 clicks required to fix it | 10:51 |
LaserJock | I've got him | 10:51 |
LaserJock | gimme a min | 10:51 |
LaserJock | mdke: done | 10:53 |
mdke | also, we should go through LP and enforce a "LP username = irc handle" rule | 10:54 |
LaserJock | bah | 10:54 |
LaserJock | make LP search for IRC nick | 10:54 |
mdke | I tried that. | 10:54 |
mdke | and failed. So now, the hard approach | 10:54 |
willvdl | mdke, not everyone on LP is on irc | 10:54 |
mdke | willvdl: we'll enforce that too | 10:54 |
LaserJock | hehe | 10:55 |
LaserJock | well I'm not changing my @ubuntu.com just for you ;-p | 10:55 |
mdke | isn't irc supposed to be done through launchpad anyway? | 10:55 |
willvdl | I work with many people who cannot use irc...firewalls etc. | 10:55 |
willvdl | you mean channel maintenance? | 10:55 |
LaserJock | mdke: hmm? IRC and LP are orthogonal I believe | 10:56 |
mdke | I'm just joking around | 10:56 |
LaserJock | I see | 10:56 |
mdke | don't you get the "orthogonal" bug too | 10:56 |
LaserJock | well in my case I had an LP account before I had an IRC nick | 10:56 |
LaserJock | I suppose I could change my nick | 10:57 |
willvdl | sigh, my humour is fading with my fatigue. | 10:57 |
willvdl | outahere | 10:57 |
LaserJock | but then I'd have to buy another domain :-) | 10:57 |
mdke | willvdl: probably mine is at fault here | 10:57 |
LaserJock | cya willvdl | 10:57 |
=== willvdl [n=will@196.36.161.235] has left #ubuntu-doc ["No] | ||
LaserJock | I wondered ... silly brits | 10:57 |
LaserJock | mdke: why the heck does Novell have Edubuntu docs | 11:00 |
LaserJock | weird | 11:00 |
mdke | no idea | 11:00 |
