[02:10] yes it is. [02:11] err [02:11] I'm trying to find out where I can find the conference pack info.

[07:32] well, lets put together a list of events it can go to, and then sell the idea to Canonical [07:33] Admiral_Chicago: the problem isn't really with the actual printing, that is an hour, it is the setting they have to do that will kill us [07:33] setting means? grahic work?

[11:28] Help us develop Linux marketing wiki at http://windowspersonas.com/wiki.pl [11:28] hello [11:29] Ok, I will think about it. Let me see! [11:34] And marketing-related note: Ubuntu is extremely slow when working in LiveCD mode, it would be nice to show a big warning message explaining that it slow only as LiveCD, slowness of LiveCD may scare Windows users and they may think, that it is general slowness of everything Ubuntu. [11:36] I agree with You [11:36] But I don't belong to the Marketing Team [11:36] Are you (the marketing people) still looking for articles for Team/Feature of the week for UWN 35? [11:36] You should put your ideia on the Wiki [11:37] I think so, at least I see that reference in the mailing list of the team [11:37] ScottK, yes we are === muxecoid is not familiar with ubuntu wiki conventions [11:38] boredandblogging: How long an article? [11:38] I can maybe do something up on why I selected Ubuntu server for my mail servers? [11:39] thats not really the purpose of the team/feature of the week...more along the lines of some group who is doing something to support or advocate Ubuntu or maybe some interesting feature that will be part of feisty [11:40] ScottK, that probably belongs in the magazine [11:41] New mail server related features in Feisty? [11:41] ScottK, thats a possibility [11:41] boredandblogging: How long? [11:42] boredandblogging: And have you got a sample article in a previous UWN you could point me at for style? [11:43] ScottK, hold on [11:44] its usually just been a paragraph long [11:44] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue32#head-39c1603b834abc7bce17878d9a208e4b16689aed [11:45] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue33#head-f9f6b30665e448fe5f6f1bd529bb7ec19ff3cbb8 [11:47] Those are team of the week. Feature of the week would be similar length/style, but about something new you can do in Feisty? [11:47] boredandblogging: ^^^ Also, when are you looking for stuff for the magazine by? [11:48] Not sure that it is marketing related, but still... It would be cool to expand the set of pre-installed wallpaper with photos of real animals (at least penguins) and put it as screenshot on http://www.ubuntu.com/products/WhatIsUbuntu/desktopedition . Most people love animals. :) [11:49] I've got to run. I'll read the scrollback later.
