[01:22] <freelancer317> Did anyone catch the email to the Marketing list from the guy from Belgium looking to advertise Ubuntu (or at least Linux) in a Newspaper in Brussels?
[01:22] <rikai> productive marketing decisions. :)
[01:22] <tonyyarusso> freelancer317: yeah
[01:22] <tsmithe> freelancer317, yup
[01:25] <rjian> hmmmmmmm
[01:26] <rjian> freelancer317: can u forward me the email? ahihihihi
[01:27] <freelancer317> I was pretty excited about that.  We need to get more companies who are manufacturing boxes with Ubuntu advertising.  Is there any info on Ubuntu forums or community to help those guys?

[04:55] <WaterSevenUb> Guys... I'm translating a UWN and came across some new things I didn't know about. First:
[04:55] <WaterSevenUb> #
[04:55] <WaterSevenUb> Spread Ubuntu (a website providing resources for grassroots advocacy, work in progress)
[04:55] <WaterSevenUb> #
[04:55] <WaterSevenUb> DIY Website (gathering place for DIY Marketing materials, homegrown campaigns and DIY howtos, work in progress)
[04:55] <WaterSevenUb> What's the difference between them? Are they online already?
[04:56] <meatballhat> WaterSevenUb: DIY is the primary project right now
[04:56] <meatballhat> it is scheduled to be up before Feb
[04:56] <meatballhat> ;-) with any luck
[04:57] <meatballhat> the development version can be viewed here, if you're interested:  http://diy.devubuntu.com
[04:58] <WaterSevenUb> Oh, yes, I've seen it before:-) Thanks. A small detail... in what context does appear the following sentence in the scope of Marketing Team:
[04:58] <WaterSevenUb> Understand the need to find zero-cost and cost-effective awareness strategies that allow for unlimited scalability
[04:58] <WaterSevenUb> :-)) kind of obscure.
[04:59] <meatballhat> hrm... that's a good question.  Where is this sentence from, anyway?
[04:59] <WaterSevenUb> UWN #26
[05:04] <WaterSevenUb> :)
[05:07] <meatballhat> WaterSevenUb: I think what we're trying to say is that we're aware of the fact that nobody here is in a position to launch a fantastically huge marketing campaign that would require mounds of cash
[05:11] <WaterSevenUb> aaah :)
[05:11] <meatballhat> WaterSevenUb: with regard to the definition of "stakeholder" ...
[05:12] <meatballhat> this should be considered to refer to anybody who makes a decision about using/not using Ubuntu ...  mostly on a semi-large scale
[05:12] <meatballhat> we're talking people who are stewards of others' money
[05:12] <meatballhat> or major decision makers
[05:13] <WaterSevenUb> I see... thanks.
[05:13] <meatballhat> basically... anybody who *isn't* a home user who's only responsible for their own desktop
[05:13] <meatballhat> I _think_ I have that right ;-)
[05:13] <meatballhat> this is how I understand it from my job
[05:13] <meatballhat> ...working with schools and government
[06:29] <MenZa> jenda: sent :
[06:29] <MenZa> :d
[07:46] <MitchM> Wow; Jenda. The DIY website really came together. I'm very impressed.
[07:46] <MitchM> jenda, Good use of Bandwith/Server space :)
[08:15] <WaterSevenUb> Hey. We've translated the UWN .https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue26/PT.. we would like to send it to some of our mailing lists. Any idea on how to move from the wiki format to a text format easily readable in different email clients? Or you usually do it by hand?
[08:16] <WaterSevenUb> We will also change the links in the main pages, after proper revision of the document.
[08:18] <WaterSevenUb> in 3 days we will have another great edition to translate :-)
[08:20] <juliux> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue26/PT?action=raw
[08:21] <juliux> there you have it in text format;)
[08:31] <WaterSevenUb> juliux, eheh:) of course. Thanks.
[08:47] <MenZa> Sent those shirts today?
[08:47] <juliux> MenZa, yes
[08:47] <MenZa> great
[08:55] <juliux> hi tsmithe 
[08:55] <tsmithe> hi juliux
[10:11] <beuno> hey elkbuntu  ;D
[10:54] <Admiral_Chicago> anyone know on the status of UWN

[10:54] <beuno> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue27
[10:54] <beuno> (seems it's in gobby)
[10:55] <Admiral_Chicago> thanks, I'll talk to Cory (iirc his name) about it
[10:55] <Admiral_Chicago> Cody it is
[10:55] <beuno> ;D
[10:56] <beuno> the feisty packages need work if you're looking for something to do
[10:57] <Admiral_Chicago> maybe I'll look at them, anyone logged in Gobby right now/
[10:58] <beuno> not likely
[10:58] <beuno> I can log in if you want some help
[10:59] <Admiral_Chicago> ohh found a link to fix
[10:59] <Admiral_Chicago> bueno: that won't be neccesary, we should wait for Cody, he probably has some ideas for us
[11:00] <beuno> hm....
[11:00] <beuno> it isn't on the gobby server
[11:00] <beuno> and it aint on the wiki either................
