[01:22] <boredandblogging> umm, the link on UWN still goes to issue 32 even though it says 33
[01:23] <boredandblogging> fixed it
[04:17] <Burgundavia> beuno: it should have been cleared
[04:25] <Burgundavia> beuno: try sending again, I may have press the wrong buttons
[04:38] <lotusleaf> Burgundavia, I'm available for any link scrounging should you need it
[04:38] <Burgundavia> ok
[04:39] <lotusleaf> is collaboration being done via wiki now or gobby still?
[04:39] <Burgundavia> wiki during the weeek
[04:39] <lotusleaf> k
[04:40] <boredandblogging> Burgundavia, can we start adding to 34?
[04:40] <Burgundavia> yep, start in on it
[04:40] <boredandblogging> ok
[04:44] <lotusleaf> Perhaps the story this links to can be mentioned somehow regarding people switching from Windows to Ubuntu? I think it's a great example: http://digg.com/linux_unix/Free_At_Last_The_Choice_of_Ubuntu
[04:44] <lotusleaf> Unlike a lot of switcher stories, this guy really goes into detail
[04:44] <Madpilot> better to link straight to the actual story in UWN - why force the detour to Digg?
[04:45] <lotusleaf> Madpilot, correct, which is why I said "the story this links to"
[04:45] <lotusleaf> I may interview the guy myself, too
[04:45] <Madpilot> there's an "In the Media" UWN section, fire it it
[04:45] <lotusleaf> really? thanks!
[04:45] <lotusleaf> were I to conduct an interview, would this be worthy of inclusion?
[04:46] <tonyyarusso> lotusleaf: Blogging it and linking your blog would be better - UWN is usually kept shortish (when possible...)
[04:46] <lotusleaf> gotcha, thanks :)
[04:48] <lotusleaf> is there a UWN button/banner for websites?
[04:49] <lotusleaf> Saw something on the ubuntulive site but not what I was looking for
[05:03] <boredandblogging> how old can the articles be? For 34, do the blog posts and articles have to have been posted this week?
[05:09] <Burgundavia> yes
[05:09] <Burgundavia> hence the "weekly" part of the news :)
[05:09] <Madpilot> there's been "older, but only discovered by us in time for this issue" stuff in UWN before, though
[05:12] <Burgundavia> true
[05:12] <Burgundavia> if it is really good, maybe
[05:16] <boredandblogging> just wondering, if maybe a good article/post just got missed or something
[05:17] <boredandblogging> i was looking at lotusleaf's digg site, and its well written but was posted on March 19th
[05:18] <boredandblogging> and I missed it when I was looking for #33 material
[05:25] <lotusleaf> I've seen much older articles linked
[05:25] <lotusleaf> but generally those were related to reviews of Edgy and the like
[05:25] <lotusleaf> so that's a different thing, perhaps
[05:26] <lotusleaf> I'd like to find more Kubuntu related articles
[05:28] <boredandblogging> right
[05:44] <beuno> Burgundavia: re-sent
[05:44] <rjian> ellow everyone
[05:45] <beuno> hey rjian
[05:46] <rjian> hello beuno

[02:48] <beuno> jenda: no pushes yeat, but I got some of the work done  :D
[02:55] <jenda> oook :)
[05:24] <bordy> quick question: What time is that meeting on the first again?
[05:35] <beuno> bordy: 20:00 UTC
[05:35] <bordy> thankee
[05:37] <beuno> welcomee  :D
[05:38] <Jenda> :)
[05:46] <Wicks> lo all
[08:23] <beuno> Burgwork: UWN #33 still hasn't gone through:  https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-news/2007-March/thread.html
[08:23] <Burgwork> ugh, I saw it
[08:23] <Burgwork> it is in my inbox
[08:26] <beuno> :D
[08:38] <beuno> Jenda: looks like I'm crossing ryan off my christmas card list
[08:38] <beuno> no answer at all  :(
[08:39] <Burgwork> beuno: hmm
[08:40] <Burgwork> I honestly have no idea why it didn't show up in the archives
[08:40] <beuno> I sent it twice
[08:40] <beuno> did it go through thou?
[08:41] <Burgwork> the 2nd one hit my inbox, which is odd
[08:41] <beuno> third try?
[08:41] <Burgwork> ok, send again
[08:44] <beuno> Burgwork: sent
[08:50] <beuno> Your message to ubuntu-news awaits moderator approval
[08:55] <Burgwork> beuno: hmm, let me try again
[08:59] <beuno> doesn't seem to go through...
[09:01] <Burgwork> haven't cleared it yet
[09:02] <beuno> ok  :D
[09:02] <beuno> brb
[09:21] <Ckenyon> Hi all
[09:22] <Admiral_Chicago> hello
[09:23] <tsmithe> 'lo there
[09:44] <beuno_> Burgwork: still nothing, I got my @ubuntu.com address working though
[09:45] <beuno_> will that make it go through the filter?
[10:09] <Burgwork> beuno: will do
[10:42] <Jenda> oi, meatballhat 
[10:42] <meatballhat> Jenda: hallloooo
[10:43] <Jenda> meatballhat: He said he did _some_ work on it... ;)
[10:43] <meatballhat> gotcha ;-)
[10:43] <meatballhat> _some_ >= _none_
[10:47] <Jenda> yep :)
[10:47] <Jenda> but it also < pushed ;)
[10:48] <meatballhat> hrm .....  ugh
[10:50] <Jenda> :)
[11:16] <beuno> ok, I'm not going to run
[11:17] <beuno> I think you're starting to do that so I don't speak
[11:19] <Jenda> hehe ;)
[11:21] <beuno> DIY is looking good, pushed through most of the "don't want to do this" parts in the weekend
[11:21] <beuno> now I just need to polish it, tie some strings
[11:21] <beuno> and maybe an alpha version can be tested   :o
[11:22] <beuno> Burgwork's "sprint" threat seemed to work   :/
[11:22] <Burgwork> heh
[11:24] <Jenda> hehehe :)
[11:25] <beuno> I'm a little upset I didn't get any answer from ryan though
[11:25] <beuno> at least a "I don't think this is a good time to do something like that"
[11:26] <beuno> but considering I went to all the trouble to talk to devs in launchpad, get them onboard, write up possible ways to do it
[11:26] <beuno> and actually coded part of what's needed
[11:26] <beuno> I expected to get a different outcome
[11:27] <adamant1988> Do we have a launchpad or something?
[11:27] <Burgwork> what specific part are you talking about?
[11:27] <adamant1988> I feel stupid asking
[11:27] <beuno> Burgwork: a way to connect the forums to launchpad
[11:27] <beuno> you don't like forums very much
[11:27] <Burgwork> ahh
[11:28] <beuno> so I don't think it will move you very much
[11:28] <Burgwork> I dislike how I have to go to forums to get in the information
[11:28] <Burgwork> it is a good thing, to have single-auth
[11:28] <beuno> no, not "authentication"
[11:28] <beuno> but as in "this thread is related to X bug, which is now closed"
[11:28] <beuno> or rejected
[11:28] <Burgwork> ahh
[11:28] <Burgwork> auth would be nice
[11:28] <beuno> that way you don't have to scroll through 22 pages until you find out it's fixed
[11:29] <adamant1988> Jenda: ping
[11:29] <beuno> yes, auth would be nice, but it's completly out of my hands
[11:29] <beuno> this I found a way to implement
[11:29] <Jenda> adamant1988: pong
[11:29] <adamant1988> Jenda: Does the marketing team have a launchpad for our specs or what?
[11:29] <beuno> got a few launchpad devs to tell they'd be interested in doing it the other way around too "this bug is related to X thread"
[11:29] <Jenda> beuno: I'll try prodding him...
[11:29] <Jenda> adamant1988: O_O
[11:30] <beuno> which can be automatic if you already have that info in the forums
[11:30] <Jenda> adamant1988: depends...
[11:30] <adamant1988> Jenda: I know :( I'm ashamed.
[11:30] <beuno> so it would be little work, bug gain
[11:30] <beuno> and would also tend to send users much more to launchpad, which would help out a lot
[11:30] <Jenda> adamant1988: for actual projects, one would start a product, and then apply various specs to it.
[11:30] <adamant1988> But it would be nice to be able to set up launchpad specs similar to the Ubuntu Release specs
[11:30] <adamant1988> but they can't be classed under the Marketing Team umbrella?
[11:31] <beuno> adamant1988: yes they can
[11:31] <Jenda> adamant1988: but if you are thinking of speccing the Job Board, I'd leave it at the wiki for now, as it doesn't merit a 'product' of its own.
[11:31] <Jenda> adamant1988: that would require a 'project' AFAIK, which we won't get ;)
[11:31] <adamant1988> Jenda: Actually I was just asking cause I want to see if there is something I can do
[11:31] <adamant1988> and it would be nice to see where I was needed
[11:32] <Jenda> hmm
[11:32] <beuno> Jenda: don't worry about prodding ryan, I need him to "want" to implement this, not "have to"
[11:32] <Jenda> adamant1988: I'm not sure if I'm getting what you're saying, but if you're looking for a To Do list, you can check out: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/DIYWebsite
[11:33] <Jenda> beuno: well, he needs to be prodded about lots of things ;)
[11:33] <Jenda> except, I lost IM contact with him by adopting centericq :(
[11:33] <adamant1988> Jenda: I guess that'll do :) 
[11:33] <Jenda> (it won't take AIM through ICQ :()
[11:33] <Jenda> adamant1988: ;)
[11:33] <adamant1988> I just installed Ubuntu on my lap top
[11:33] <adamant1988> So I'm waiting for that to update
[11:34] <beuno> oh, well, he usually answered emails pretty fast
[11:34] <beuno> all the ones I exchanged with him before where answered within hours
[11:34] <adamant1988> interesting question, why do the various teams on the Ubuntu forums not have special titles?
[11:37] <beuno> I finally got my @ubuntu.com working  :D
[11:37] <beuno> @ubuntu.com
[11:52] <MenZa> :O
[11:54] <Jenda> adamant1988: because 1) someone would have to code it first 2) someone would have to check each of the people if they are truly members of each team 3) you would have to choose one
