[12:34] <kbrooks> OK
[12:34] <kbrooks> I have a BIG idea.
[12:34] <kbrooks> ping
[12:34] <poningru> whatsup
[12:36] <kbrooks> so, the big idea.
[12:36] <poningru> uhuh
[12:37] <kbrooks> ready for it?
[12:37] <poningru> sure...
[12:37] <MenZa> go for it
[12:37] <kbrooks> okay
[12:38] <kbrooks> well, this needs a windows pc and a ubuntu pc ... i have both
[12:38] <poningru> ok...
[12:38] <MenZa> so do I
[12:38] <kbrooks> so, i could take screenshots of <default app on windows> and <default app on ubuntu>
[12:39] <kbrooks> to show users that the former is indeed inferior, or lacking in quality
[12:39] <MenZa> very opinionated
[12:39] <lotusleaf> a quick trip to youtube for a show of compiz/beryl demos is effective for many
[12:39] <kbrooks> all right. just show them then.
[12:40] <MenZa> Aero vs. Beryl ;p
[12:40] <kbrooks> MenZa, yeah, show them right there 
[12:40] <kbrooks> notepad vs gedit 
[12:40] <lotusleaf> kbrooks, so you mean a breakdown of similar apps and a screenshot comparison between the two, possibly with descriptions of differences between the apps?
[12:40] <kbrooks> etc
[12:41] <kbrooks> lotusleaf, i'm referring to a blank slate windowsw system, with NOTHING installed
[12:41] <kbrooks> lotusleaf, but yes
[12:41] <lotusleaf> just give them ubuntu livecds
[12:41] <kbrooks> lotusleaf, they might want to see it first.
[12:42] <lotusleaf> ya they can boot into it being its a livecd
[12:42] <lotusleaf> kbrooks, is this a project of yours?
[12:45] <poningru> WTF christina.armstrong@canonical.com has been removed from
[12:45] <poningru> ubuntu-marketing.
[12:45] <juliux> poningru, did she leaf canonical?
[12:46] <poningru> yeah she did
[12:46] <juliux> shit
[12:46] <poningru> and I am guessing they shut down all of her accounts
[12:46] <poningru> chris whatshisname is supposed to take over
[12:46] <juliux> chris keyon?
[12:46] <elkbuntu> chris kenyon
[12:46] <juliux> yes kenyon is his name
[12:47] <poningru> yeah thats it

[01:37] <poningru> jenda: re: the wiki notifications do we want those to pass on to the marketing list?
[01:37] <jenda> hm
[01:37] <jenda> I don't think so, poningru 
[01:37] <jenda> your opinion?
[01:37] <jenda> (BTW, thanks for doing a great job modding the list ;))
[01:38] <lotusleaf> jenda, the demand is growing on the forums for the roughcut tshirt!
[01:39] <poningru> :p
[01:39] <kbrooks> jenda, is it ok to put marketing ideas into the gobby server that u guys have ?
[01:39] <lotusleaf> seriously, there's a thread about it
[01:39] <poningru> I dont think we should let the wiki notification should be let through
[01:39] <poningru> kbrooks: see I think the wiki might be a better place for that
[01:40] <kbrooks> poningru, hmm okay 
[01:40] <poningru> damn I just discovered defiance ohio
[01:40] <poningru> teh awesome
[01:40] <kbrooks> all right fair enough
[01:40] <jenda> kbrooks: no, bceasue they'll get lost there - put them on the mailing list instead.
[01:40] <jenda> lotusleaf: linky?
[01:40] <poningru> right that might be better actually
[01:40] <poningru> the mailing list I mean
[01:40] <kbrooks> okay
[01:40] <lotusleaf> jenda, gah one sec plz
[01:41] <jenda> kbrooks: or, if it's convenient, on the wiki, and inform/link the mailing list.
[01:41] <kbrooks> ok
[01:41] <lotusleaf> jenda, it will take a few minutes as I'm finishing up an update @ 56k ;)
[01:42] <jenda> O_O
[01:42] <jenda> :)
[01:42] <lotusleaf> jenda, actually, more than a few minutes.. :P It should be in the cafe on one of the recent pages with a poll
[01:42] <lotusleaf> jenda, using feisty btw :) Took 30+ hours to d/l it and a day for updates ;)
[01:43] <jenda> lotusleaf: me too, and I had a slow connection too :)
[01:43] <jenda> although I chickened out and asked a friend to DL it for me.
[01:43] <lotusleaf> best way to do it
[01:44] <lotusleaf> jenda, you may trim the search down by searching for black tshirt perhaps
[01:46] <jenda> got it
[01:46] <lotusleaf> cool
[01:57] <lotusleaf> you should put a tiny jenda fish logo at the bottom, like the darwin fish but with "jenda" inside
[01:57] <lotusleaf> should you make the roughcut tshirts
[01:58] <lotusleaf> with the link to the DIY site in tendrils around it

[09:14] <beuno> somerville32,  :D
[09:14] <beuno> how are you?
[09:15] <somerville32> I'm doing well.
[09:15] <somerville32> I convinced the hospital to install a wireless drop in the unit I'm onj
[09:15] <beuno> saw you edit wikis here and there  :D
[09:15] <somerville32> So reliable internet fo'eve' - wee
[09:15] <beuno> really?  ha!  geek to the bones!
[09:16] <juliux> hi somerville32 
[09:16] <beuno> hahahaahah
[09:16] <somerville32> And it was a pain in the butt to get connected too
[09:16] <somerville32> So I'm super happy now.
[09:16] <beuno> great to have you back!
[09:16] <somerville32> I can use my laptop everywhere on the unit and so I will no longer be panged due to awkward postures :D
[09:16] <somerville32> lol
[09:17] <somerville32> I'm still in the hospital remember
[09:17] <somerville32> So I can't be on 24/7 like usual ;] 
[09:17] <beuno> hahah
[09:17] <beuno> well, we have jenda for that
[09:17] <somerville32> hehe
[09:17] <somerville32> Did you guys read this article?: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/6506027.stm
[09:19] <beuno> somerville32: it's been hopping all around, yes
[09:19] <beuno> seems that dell poll really helped
[09:19] <somerville32> How could they ignore it? ;] 
[09:19] <beuno> well, "DELETE * FROM polls" for starters
[09:19] <beuno> :p
[09:20] <somerville32> haha
[09:20] <somerville32> Tru' datg
[09:21] <beuno> they haven't specified what distro though
[09:21] <beuno> hope canonical folks are all over them
[09:22] <beuno> sending them all kinds of live cds "AOL style"
[09:23] <kbrooks> beuno, ping :-)
[09:23] <Burgwork> I got contacted to provide a comment
[09:25] <beuno> kbrooks: pong
[09:25] <kbrooks> beuno, do we use gobvby or the ubuntu wiki ?
[09:25] <kbrooks> brb 
[09:26] <beuno> kbrooks: nope, wiki for now
[09:26] <beuno> unless we have to do a super special mega sprint session
[09:26] <beuno> which hasn't been necessary for now
[09:28] <kbrooks> all right
[09:29] <kbrooks> which one ?
[09:29] <somerville32> The one is 33, I think
[09:29] <kbrooks> looking
[09:29] <beuno> somerville32: well, you know xubuntu is not on my radar  :p
[09:30] <somerville32> They all release at the same time ;p
[09:30] <Burgwork> somerville32: the beta release article only talked about Ubuntu, not edubuntu, xubuntu or kubuntu
[09:30] <somerville32> I guess other people edited it in then
[09:31] <kbrooks> OK
[09:31] <kbrooks> um
[09:32] <beuno> somerville32: did you notice feisty changes where kindly "depreciated"?  :D
[09:32] <somerville32> lol
[09:33] <somerville32> There isn't a lot of uploads occurring at this stage anyhow.
[09:36] <Burgwork> yep
