[05:34] well, they just fell below Gentoo on my useless heirarchy [05:34] they are pushing windows === somerville32 [n=somervil@ubuntu/member/somerville32] has joined #ubuntu-doc [05:41] nixternal, huh? [05:42] being crazy [05:42] playing on the new lappy === mdke moins [09:13] hi [09:14] mdke: Is there anyone leading the Xubuntu documentation effort? Or any contacts? [09:18] mdke, can i get just dapper doco from svn, or do i have to wget -mnp it from the web? [09:22] somerville32: well, there is only one contributor. Called luzi [09:22] Kamping_Kaiser: yes, "svn checkout url" [09:22] mdke, thanks. [09:23] mdke: Someone else will be able to commit if I send in patches, right? === poningru [n=poningru@pool-72-64-211-211.tampfl.fios.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-doc [09:23] somerville32: yes [09:24] would be good to get some more contribution [09:24] How many patches would I have to send in before I could get svn access? [09:24] are the dirs like this: UbuntuDapperDocsSVN/ubuntu/desktopguide/ja localised versions? [09:25] somerville32: not many, enough to show you can write English and won't commit anything that breaks [09:25] somerville32: but sending patches is a pretty effective way to contribute already [09:25] Kamping_Kaiser: yes [09:25] ta [09:26] mdke: Should I use the stuff at http://docs.ubuntu.com/xubuntu or pull ro from svn? [09:29] 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 [09:32] somerville32: definitely read our wiki pages, they describe how to ensure what you send is valid docbook, that's very important too === somerville32 nods.

[09:05] mdke: I'd like to request svn access for Pete Savage (cbx33) [09:05] he worked with me on some Edubuntu docs [09:05] he's an Ubuntu member and MOTU and sent several patches to the mailing list [09:05] I don't remember the patches, were they ok? [09:07] I'm pretty sure, let me just check my emails real quick [09:08] yep, he's a pretty good writer and does docbook fine. He wants to get cracking on Edubuntu stuff again [09:08] ok [09:08] I think there will be some more people in the future wanting to get access [09:08] but they need to send patches first [09:08] good news [09:09] willvdl is working on heading up Edubuntu docs as a part of his employment [09:09] working on? I thought he *is* [09:09] well yeah [09:10] that would be contrary to open development :) [09:10] well, where I come from we'd say he's "riding herd" on Edubuntu docs [09:10] ;-) [09:12] 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] how long are you in Nigeria? [09:14] not sure yet. [09:14] probably only two weeks [09:14] ah [09:15] but then I'm in Argentina for March [09:15] blimey [09:15] rockstar stuff [09:15] nothing glamorous about his work :) [09:15] *this [09:16] trust me [09:16] 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] I don't mind === rob [i=RobertSt@freenode/staff/rob] has joined #ubuntu-doc [10:09] LaserJock: so what's the verdict? am I requesting, or are you? [10:38] you are :-) [10:39] ok [10:40] LaserJock: Pete Savage/cbx33 has no search results on launchpad. Can you tell me his LP name, and ask him to remedy that? [10:41] ah, forget the first bit of that [10:41] yeah, he's hard to find on LP [10:42] mdke: got it now? [10:42] yes, but still. [10:43] but still what? [10:44] but still, he should fix it [10:44] btw LaserJock, willvdl: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=317786 [10:44] what is there to "fix" he can't just change his LP id I don't think === nixternal [n=nixterna@ubuntu/member/nixternal] has joined #ubuntu-doc [10:46] LaserJock: he could use his real name [10:46] instead of a joined up name [10:47] ohhh, on Display Name [10:47] I got it [10:48] to be fair, a search on "savage" doesn't even turn him up, which must be launchpad's fault [10:49] mdke, ogra will be pleased :) [10:49] that's what I've always assumed [10:49] willvdl: or horrified, one or the other [10:49] https://launchpad.net/people/petesavage [10:49] yeah, I found it from his wiki page [10:50] I always go to one of the teams he's on [10:50] but then I already know what teams he's on [10:51] only 2 clicks required to fix it [10:51] I've got him [10:51] gimme a min [10:53] mdke: done [10:54] also, we should go through LP and enforce a "LP username = irc handle" rule [10:54] bah [10:54] make LP search for IRC nick [10:54] I tried that. [10:54] and failed. So now, the hard approach [10:54] mdke, not everyone on LP is on irc [10:54] willvdl: we'll enforce that too [10:55] hehe [10:55] well I'm not changing my @ubuntu.com just for you ;-p [10:55] isn't irc supposed to be done through launchpad anyway? [10:55] I work with many people who cannot use irc...firewalls etc. [10:55] you mean channel maintenance? [10:56] mdke: hmm? IRC and LP are orthogonal I believe [10:56] I'm just joking around [10:56] I see [10:56] don't you get the "orthogonal" bug too [10:56] well in my case I had an LP account before I had an IRC nick [10:57] I suppose I could change my nick [10:57] sigh, my humour is fading with my fatigue. [10:57] outahere [10:57] but then I'd have to buy another domain :-) [10:57] willvdl: probably mine is at fault here [10:57] cya willvdl === willvdl [n=will@196.36.161.235] has left #ubuntu-doc ["No] [10:57] I wondered ... silly brits [11:00] mdke: why the heck does Novell have Edubuntu docs [11:00] weird [11:00] no idea === mdke beds [11:00] cya === jeffsch [n=jeff@dhcp561-1-99.dsl.ucc-net.ca] has joined #ubuntu-doc === theCore [n=alex@ubuntu/member/theCore] has joined #ubuntu-doc
