| nixternal | holy cow, what's up Adamant1988!!! | 01:12 |
| nixternal | where have you been hiding? | 01:13 |
| Adamant1988 | I don't know | 01:14 |
| Adamant1988 | I went outside to get the mail | 01:14 |
| Adamant1988 | and suddenly I had a real girlfriend | 01:14 |
| Adamant1988 | and a social life, | 01:14 |
| nixternal | seems to be the new fad around here :) | 01:14 |
| Adamant1988 | Haha, things been stagnating with the team? | 01:15 |
| nixternal | I have been to busy to really notice | 01:16 |
| Adamant1988 | Ah, yeah. I removed myself from the mailing list | 01:16 |
| Adamant1988 | I really hate mailing lists, you know that? | 01:16 |
| nixternal | there was a weekly newsletter, but I haven't seen it in a while now | 01:16 |
| nixternal | mailing lists are great, join 50 of them and see what I mean | 01:16 |
| Adamant1988 | Dude, screw that :( | 01:17 |
| nixternal | hehe | 01:17 |
| Adamant1988 | The marketing team needs a forum, I don't care if it's a free piece of junk forum, it just needs a forum | 01:17 |
| nixternal | heh, I am not a forums junky really | 01:17 |
| nixternal | I frequent them to see what the word on the street is and that's about it | 01:18 |
| Adamant1988 | neither am I, but they are certainly a lot more organized. | 01:18 |
| Adamant1988 | and much easier to converse in. | 01:18 |
| nixternal | however I will probably start working a little more with the Ambassadors project | 01:18 |
| Adamant1988 | I'm out of the loop | 01:18 |
| Adamant1988 | which one is that? | 01:18 |
| nixternal | how hard could a mailing list be, if you can email, you can use a mailing list :) | 01:18 |
| nixternal | it is a new project to communicate more between users and developers via the forums | 01:19 |
| Adamant1988 | I'm trying to get together some people to work on a hardware compatibility list/recommended hardware site for linux | 01:19 |
| Adamant1988 | I never know who to send the mail to | 01:19 |
| nixternal | there is one out there somewhere, at least there used to be | 01:19 |
| Adamant1988 | and it's hard for me to read. | 01:19 |
| Adamant1988 | There are a couple, and they're really awful | 01:19 |
| Adamant1988 | the organization is horrid | 01:19 |
| nixternal | ya, that would be a difficult site to maintain | 01:21 |
| Adamant1988 | The goal is to make it user maintained for the most part | 01:21 |
| nixternal | you would get new users who have 1 issue go a little overboard and say it doesn't work and what not | 01:21 |
| Adamant1988 | Yeah, I predict that being a problem. | 01:22 |
| Adamant1988 | It's going to have to be well moderated, but then again, that's their experience. | 01:22 |
| Adamant1988 | we can't really say that it's wrong | 01:22 |
| nixternal | heh, it is time to go get some dinner. | 01:23 |
| Adamant1988 | The hardest part is going to be trying to keep duplication out, so there won't be multiple instances of the same hardware | 01:23 |
| nixternal | I shall be around later | 01:23 |

| ubuntulivecd | hi | 09:33 |
| ubuntulivecd | does a livecd exist containing marketing materials? | 09:33 |
| BHSPitMonkey | such as? | 09:33 |
| ubuntulivecd | a disc to pop in which contains marketing materials to print without downloading | 09:34 |
| tsmithe | no... | 09:34 |
| ubuntulivecd | as a livecd | 09:34 |
| tsmithe | but that's a nice idea | 09:34 |
| ubuntulivecd | none exist you like idea? | 09:34 |
| BHSPitMonkey | If you count the "Examples" folder... | 09:34 |
| tsmithe | ubuntulivecd, yes | 09:35 |
| tsmithe | BHSPitMonkey, :P | 09:35 |
| jenda | mornin' | 09:35 |
| tsmithe | allo | 09:35 |
| ubuntulivecd | yes like the /Examples folder but on a livecd | 09:35 |
| BHSPitMonkey | ubuntulivecd, you could throw the materials onto a USB stick, or inject the files into the ISO yourself | 09:35 |
| jenda | ubuntulivecd, when would it be used? | 09:35 |
| BHSPitMonkey | uh | 09:35 |
| BHSPitMonkey | the Examples folder is on the livecd, no? | 09:36 |
| jenda | ubuntulivecd: the Exmaples folder is included on the liveCD. | 09:36 |
| ubuntulivecd | jenda, it does not contain all of the promotionals I find on the ubuntu website | 09:36 |
| BHSPitMonkey | Granted, the Examples folder isn't home to the best stuff. | 09:36 |
| jenda | ubuntulivecd: because there are over 300 MiB of promotional material out there. | 09:37 |
| jenda | probably about a Gig. | 09:37 |
| ubuntulivecd | BHSPitMonkey, good idea, how would I do this? making a livecd with nothing but promotionals for ubuntu and derivitives and a handful of programs to print them | 09:37 |
| ubuntulivecd | jenda, these may be compressed for a livecd | 09:37 |
| ubuntulivecd | jenda, and decompressed when used | 09:37 |
| jenda | ubuntulivecd: the liveCD is already full. | 09:37 |
| jenda | it would have to be a specialised marketing liveCD | 09:38 |
| jenda | so I'm wondering, who would use it? | 09:38 |
| ubuntulivecd | jenda, yes such is my interest | 09:38 |
| BHSPitMonkey | well, if you just wanted to add some files (stuff to print out) you can stuff them into an iso using an iso editor... and you might get away with removing some existing stuff to fit them | 09:38 |
| BHSPitMonkey | ubuntulivecd, you might be one of the only people who want this, thoguh | 09:38 |
| BHSPitMonkey | though* | 09:38 |
| ubuntulivecd | jenda, people marketing ubuntu | 09:38 |
| BHSPitMonkey | I suggest getting a USB stick... | 09:38 |
| BHSPitMonkey | This is a really unorthodox need | 09:39 |
| jenda | ubuntulivecd: why not download the stuff and put it on an extra CD, or even better, a flash drive? | 09:39 |
| ubuntulivecd | jenda, i think it good idea to have it all on livecd to reduce steps | 09:39 |
| BHSPitMonkey | jenda, I do think we should improve the Examples folder content... | 09:39 |
| ubuntulivecd | BHSPitMonkey, maybe, but the same could be said for many good things people don't know exist until they do exist | 09:40 |
| BHSPitMonkey | ubuntulivecd, this is a really specific want of yours... | 09:40 |
| BHSPitMonkey | most people have internet access | 09:40 |
| ubuntulivecd | BHSPitMonkey, I can do it myself if you tell me how | 09:40 |
| BHSPitMonkey | ubuntulivecd, remastering the Ubuntu live cd is a real huge pain. | 09:41 |
| ubuntulivecd | BHSPitMonkey, I enjoy challenge | 09:41 |
| BHSPitMonkey | Google. | 09:41 |
| BHSPitMonkey | There was a tool being developed for remastering the ubuntu livecd, look for it | 09:41 |
| BHSPitMonkey | It might have grown some. | 09:41 |
| ubuntulivecd | thank you | 09:41 |
| ubuntulivecd | I report here with news when I finish this | 09:43 |
| BHSPitMonkey | Go for it. | 09:44 |
| BHSPitMonkey | As an added challenge, try and make one that fits on a MiniCD, like slax. | 09:44 |
| ubuntulivecd | I have to get process down first | 09:45 |
| ubuntulivecd | let me write that idea down | 09:45 |
| jenda | BHSPitMonkey: good idea... it is really a marketing team duty to take care of the Examples folder ;) | 09:46 |
| BHSPitMonkey | indeed... | 09:46 |
| ubuntulivecd | the Examples folder should be more organized | 09:47 |
| BHSPitMonkey | The stuff in there really sucks, TBH | 09:47 |
| BHSPitMonkey | No offense if any content creators are present | 09:47 |
| BHSPitMonkey | I just think the choices of what's in there is poor | 09:47 |
| BHSPitMonkey | It's like "Hey, here's a handful of 'Merchandise'" | 09:47 |
| BHSPitMonkey | Especially Aesop's Fable | 09:48 |
| BHSPitMonkey | WTF. | 09:48 |
| tsmithe | what? | 09:49 |
| tsmithe | i haven't used the Examples dir for ages, obviously | 09:49 |
| BHSPitMonkey | well, have a look for yourself. | 09:51 |
| BHSPitMonkey | It has an example spx file of an audiobook of one of Aesop's Fables | 09:52 |
| BHSPitMonkey | Hey, what are some good links for introducing people to open-source | 09:53 |
| BHSPitMonkey | Yeah, now comes the silence. | 09:57 |
| tsmithe | haha | 09:57 |
| tsmithe | jenda, you have a reply in -motu | 09:57 |
| ubuntulivecd | BHSPitMonkey, Google. | 09:58 |
| jenda | sweet | 09:59 |
| === jenda needs beuno | ||
| === BHSPitMonkey needs sueno | ||
| BHSPitMonkey | err... I think I just said I need fatigue. | 10:04 |
| BHSPitMonkey | Whatever. Peace out. | 10:04 |
| jenda | what's that? :) | 10:04 |
| jenda | hehe, ok, laters. | 10:04 |
| BHSPitMonkey | fatigue = state of being tired | 10:04 |
| jenda | Yes, I know that - didn't know sueno | 10:05 |
| BHSPitMonkey | ah | 10:05 |
| BHSPitMonkey | I never know, with you Czechs ;) | 10:05 |
