lotusleafMadpilot: hi :) did you finish that xubuntu poster by any chance? :)04:04
Madpilotlotusleaf, nyet, did not. I'm in the middle of a Dapper->Edgy dist-upgrade right now too, so it ain't happening tonight.04:05
lotusleafMadpilot: k, thx :) wow, still on Dapper?04:05
Madpilotyeah, I'm Jurrasic.04:05
lotusleaf:P04:06
Madpilotheck, the ubuntu.ca server is still running Breezy...04:06
lotusleafwow04:06
=== lotusleaf flips to #ubuntuforums for offtopic ;)
lotusleafoh, wait, you're not there ^^04:06
Madpilotno, I don't hang out in -forums. Some folks I don't get along with do, so I don't.04:08
lotusleafah04:08
lotusleafthat's what /ignore is for :)04:08
lotusleafhmm.. an obey feisty poster :P04:08
lotusleafobey the fawn! :P04:08
lotusleafdo you have a business for your art aside from your roughcut designs?04:09
Admiral_Chicago oh goodness..04:09
Madpilotlotusleaf, not really. I'm going to set up a 'company' website sometime this year, as Wire Lizard Designs, though. Eventually.04:09
lotusleafcool04:10
lotusleafgood luck w/ that and e-mail me when you get it done so I can link you ;)04:10
Madpilotneed to find good hosting. On a Canadian server, so I'm only dealing with one set of stupid laws.04:10
tonyyarussoMadpilot: What do you do that brushes the law?04:16
Madpilottonyyarusso, nothing, and I want to keep it that way. Plus, keeping everything in Canada keeps stupid cr*p like the PATRIOT Act away from my serverspace.04:16
tonyyarussoMadpilot: Fair enough.  Hosting in some parts of Europe could be okay too though.04:17
Madpilotprobably, yeah. 04:18
beunotonyyarusso: hey, you know anything about the UWN?04:19
tonyyarussobeuno: ya, why?  (I've worked on it before)04:19
beunotonyyarusso: UWN 30 has been stalled for weeks (a month?)04:20
lotusleafya, everytime I ask about UWN a tumbleweed blows by04:21
tonyyarussobeuno: Oh really?04:21
tonyyarussoLooks like Cody has been a bit scarce on IRC.  Perhaps he's no longer willing to head it up?  (And we all know how much free time Corey has)04:21
beunotonyyarusso: yeap, AFAIK, it's still on gabby!04:22
beuno| Corey is doing UWN again, as Cody is on leave. Edit party at 03:00 UTC Friday morning |04:22
beuno Topic for #ubuntu-marketing set by Burgwork at Tue Feb 13 15:16:19 200704:22
beuno:D04:22
tonyyarussoDoh.04:22
tonyyarussoCool.04:23
beunoI'm not sure how to get it moving04:23
=== tonyyarusso pencils that in, just in case.
beunojenda is gone, sommerville32 is on leave, and Corey is scarce04:23
tonyyarussobeuno: write a script that greets everyone who joins with FRIDAY FRIDAY FRIDAY, and start trolling the *-offtopics for help.04:23
beunolol04:24
beunothat was friday 16 feb he meant04:24
tonyyarussoSeriously on the offtopic part.04:24
beuno:D04:24
lotusleafI'd like to see a monthly cycle where a different person heads the UWN so there's some kind of rotation schema04:24
tonyyarussothat might be good04:25
lotusleafthat can remove the stress that can set in04:25
beunolotusleaf: sounds like a great idea04:26
beunoyou should send the proposal to the mailing list04:26
lotusleafgood idea04:26
Madpilotlotusleaf, so did I just here you volunteer to do UWN for March? :)04:28
tonyyarussoyep04:28
tonyyarussoThat's what I heard04:28
lotusleafMadpilot: that sounds good, but I'd have to shadow someone for a while before I could feel confident to take such a role :)04:28
Madpilotharass Corey04:29
lotusleafbut I already harass you enough as it is :)04:29
lotusleafobey xubuntu!04:29
lotusleaf:P04:29
Madpilotso spread your efforts ;)04:31
lotusleaflol04:31
lotusleafI've never used Gobby either04:31
lotusleafdid whiprush ever return to marketing?04:31
beunoI can help out with UWN, I have been for the las 5 or 6  :D04:38
beunomaybe I should move the UWN from gobby to the wiki?04:38
tonyyarussoyeah04:39
