[12:14] <Burgundavia> nope
[12:15] <beuno> oh, so, who deleted 3/4 of the UWN #35?
[12:16] <Burgundavia> Samyel did apparently
[12:16] <beuno> I don't want to go back a revision and undo someone's changes
[12:16] <Burgundavia> ah, is nothing
[12:16] <Burgundavia> reverted
[12:17] <beuno> ah, great
[12:18] <beuno> I'll add the case studies bit, then after your ubuntu magazine one, I think we have a pretty good UWN
[12:18] <Burgundavia> sounds good
[12:18] <beuno> I'm sure poningru will get it dugg  :p
[12:19] <Burgundavia> I am going to need help on this RC page
[12:19] <beuno> ok, I can help out, when is it due?
[12:19] <Burgundavia> 11th
[12:20] <beuno> aight, I'll see if I can work on it a bit after UWN is out
[12:20] <Burgundavia> sounds good
[12:28] <beuno> Burgundavia: all done, you're up
[12:28] <Burgundavia> ok, sounds good
[12:29] <beuno> seems I'm sounding pretty good today, must be that new tea I bought....   :p
[12:31] <boredandblogging> hey guys, anything left to be done
[12:31] <beuno> boredandblogging: you didn't leave very much to do  :D
[12:31] <beuno> almost done
[12:31] <boredandblogging> cool
[12:34] <beuno> boredandblogging: actually, one last thing, once Burgundavia is done, you can update the bug stats to today's
[12:34] <Burgundavia> go ahead, I am doing other stuff right now
[12:34] <beuno> we tend to add them in the last minute for them to be as accurate as possible
[12:34] <boredandblogging> right, I'll take care of it
[12:47] <boredandblogging> beuno, bug stats are up to date
[12:47] <beuno> great
[12:48] <Burgundavia> ok, let me proof
[01:41] <beuno> Burgundavia, you think it's proven by now?  :p
[01:41] <Burgundavia> beuno: Samyel is busy editing it right now
[01:42] <Samyel> just tidying up caps, mostly
[01:42] <Samyel> and not deleting >_<
[01:42] <beuno> hahaha
[01:54] <Samyel> okay, gentlemen, hopefully I didn't accidentally axe half the newsletter this time.
[01:54] <beuno> doesn't seem so
[01:57] <beuno> Burgundavia: it seems we're just missing the piece on the magazine
[01:57] <beuno> want to lave it for next one?
[01:58] <Burgundavia> yep, sounds good
[01:58] <Admiral_Chicago> any news on UWN?
[01:59] <Admiral_Chicago> we close to release
[01:59] <beuno> ok, releasing now
[01:59] <beuno> :D
[01:59] <Admiral_Chicago> dang, I wanted to include Flourish info but its too late Z(
[01:59] <beuno> Admiral_Chicago: go for it
[02:00] <Admiral_Chicago> beuno: will do. I'd hate to not see Ubuntu Chicago LoCo not get recognizes
[02:04] <Admiral_Chicago> beuno: no LoCo news section?
[02:04] <beuno> Admiral_Chicago: removed it because there was none
[02:04] <beuno> add it!
[02:04] <Admiral_Chicago> okay will do
[02:14] <beuno> Admiral_Chicago: ping me when you're done so I can release

[06:04] <cX-kads> What would I need to do to a hold realease party at my Universit?
[06:05] <cX-kads> Do I need permission? and Can I get SWAG and CDS
[06:05] <cX-kads> in bulk
[06:14] <nixternal> cX-kads: you don't need permission, Swag and CDs will more than likely be a negative unless you are an official/approved LoCo team
[06:14] <nixternal> and even then, CDs won't be released by release
[06:16] <cX-kads> I know
[06:16] <cX-kads> But I want to do it for the next release and plan ahead
[06:16] <cX-kads> What do I need to make an  official/approved LoCo team
[06:50] <elkbuntu> cX-kads, loco teams discussions/planning/questions usually happen in #ubuntu-locoteams
[06:51] <elkbuntu> nixternal, anyone can request a conference pack
[06:52] <elkbuntu> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuAtConferences
[06:55] <nixternal> *Conference Pack approval is at Canonical's discretion"
[06:55] <nixternal> and let me just say, either they used their discretion or never replied to my request
[06:55] <nixternal> and because of so, Ubuntu had the worst layout at this weeks open source conference
[06:56] <nixternal> and even Chris DiBona and Peter Brown commented on how they were't happy that we didn't give them something
[06:56] <cX-kads> thx elk
[07:00] <elkbuntu> nixternal, it was last minute on easter weekend. what on earth did you expect?
[07:00] <nixternal> last minute? 2 months ago wasn't last minute
[07:00] <nixternal> you can ask jono and mark about it, they both received the information on it as well
[07:00] <elkbuntu> nixternal, this isnt the chicago thing that cropped up last minute expecting a booth etc?
[07:01] <nixternal> well the talks were last minute, the booths were iffy
[07:01] <nixternal> doesn't matter though, even the other distros with their schwag got defeated in the talks and the battle of the distros :)
[07:02] <elkbuntu> nixternal, i thought there was an event that was just going to be loco people attending until they had a booth and talks thrown at them in the last week or so?
[07:02] <nixternal> all we requested in the conference pack as stickers, cds, and flyers
[07:03] <nixternal> no, about 1,500 Chicago OSS people and non-oss newbies attended
[07:04] <nixternal> the booth wasn't thrown at us, I brought it up jokingly with Corey because of a conversation we had last year
[07:04] <nixternal> we still had our one booth, we just didn't realize how extravagant it was going to be, so I brought up the banner thing with him
[07:04] <nixternal> months back we were told a small table to distribute schwag at
[07:05] <nixternal> heh, it was kind of funny..all of the other distros didn't have many people around them. There were at any given time 100+ people around us and the Neuros OSD guys
[07:06] <nixternal> we lured people in with cookies and pepsi, thanks to Google
[07:07] <elkbuntu> nixternal, i requested a conference pack for LCA and got only cds (albeit 1000 of them) of only one type and a small handful of the stickers
[07:07] <nixternal> ya, we just wanted a small amount of pretty much the same thing
[07:07] <elkbuntu> but if it makes you feel better, i will be proposing a spec regarding loco resources for UDS
[07:07] <nixternal> we had about 50 to 100 6.10 CDs, and about 500 6.06 CDs
[07:07] <nixternal> we left with none
[07:07] <elkbuntu> ... if one can ever submit a spec to the sprint
[07:08] <nixternal> man, I don't feel like giving a talk tomorrow morning
[07:08] <nixternal> can I hire someone to do it for me?
[07:09] <nixternal> I will say one thing that the LoCo has done, I am giving at least a talk a week now. Don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing
[07:09] <elkbuntu> if you can email me the history of the problem above such as 'when you found out about the conf' 'when you first asked for schwag' 'how many times you tried' and such sort of q's, i'll be able to call it as evidence if needed ;)
[07:09] <nixternal> I love how they tell me the other day that there should be about 25 or so people for the talk...umm it was standing room only..I was sweatin' bullets
[07:09] <nixternal> I can gather all of the emails and forward them to ya
[07:10] <nixternal> I think we found out about the conf in October. I will have to check on the mark and jono emails
[07:10] <elkbuntu> ok, but remember sharing personal emails without permission is a dangerous thing
[07:11] <nixternal> well, all it was to them was me asking if they would be interested in speaking
[07:11] <nixternal> I won't send their replies, which were both no, but still :)
[07:11] <nixternal> haha
[07:11] <elkbuntu> ah ok
[07:11] <nixternal> well not no, but umm...WE ARE TOO BUSY!
[07:11] <nixternal> hehe
[07:12] <elkbuntu> heh
[07:12] <nixternal> actually I think Jono was the one that told me about the conference
[07:13] <elkbuntu> ok, collate into one giant mail, preferably including header info for date reference, and hit my inbox with it
[07:13] <nixternal> or maybe Mark, because Samir at UIC contacted him first about giving a talk
[07:14] <elkbuntu> include the first contact from whomever, i'll be discreet with using it
[07:14] <nixternal> hrmm, Ubuntu Chicago is coming up on a year as official, we were a year old last week. I think it is time for some fresh leadership over there
[07:15] <elkbuntu> where = 'there'?
[07:15] <elkbuntu> the team?
[07:15] <nixternal> ya
[07:16] <nixternal> hah, I met the guy yesterday whose job was offered to me recently. and I hated the fact we had to tear him up in the battle of the distros
[07:16] <elkbuntu> heh... what job?
[07:16] <nixternal> there will be a pic shortly, we are calling it "the hug heard around the world". It started out as Ubuntu and Red Hat/Fedora hugging, then everyone got in and had a distro hug
[07:17] <nixternal> Red Hat Marketing
[07:17] <elkbuntu> o.O
[07:17] <nixternal> but umm...I kind of figured that would be a conflict of interest
[07:17] <nixternal> so I happily turned it down
[07:17] <elkbuntu> yeah
[07:18] <nixternal> I can't believe they still offered me a position after the interview when I told them I don't like their package management, nor their position within the market and how they target distros wrongly
[07:19] <nixternal> but if all goes well, I might/hope I get this IBM offer as Business Customer Linux Liason/Manager
[07:19] <tonyyarusso> nice
[07:19] <nixternal> granted IBM isn't the greatest at Free and Open Source, but they would allow me to work and continue on with school and Ubuntu
[07:19] <nixternal> some of the perks of trying to finish your masters at Kellogg
[07:20] <nixternal> and not Tony the Tiger Kellogs either
[07:21] <elkbuntu> lol
[07:22] <nixternal> my dad makes fun of that one still
[07:24] <tonyyarusso> "My degree is gonna be GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREAAAT!"
[07:25] <elkbuntu> nixternal, any idea when jono sneaks off to brazil? you and joey seem to get to talk to him more than i do these days
[07:25] <nixternal> actually, the last I talked to Jono is when he asked about Ubuntu Live
[07:25] <nixternal> I think it is like right now
[07:25] <nixternal> if he hasn't already left
[07:26] <elkbuntu> poop
[07:26] <nixternal> probably been a month since I last talked to him
[07:27] <nixternal> wow, been over a month
[07:27] <elkbuntu> ah ok. i just figured you and joey were in cohorts with him when joey went all taskmaster on the loco meetings
[07:27] <elkbuntu> (and yeah, i know we're overdue for one)
[07:28] <nixternal> just a little
[07:28] <nixternal> I haven't talked to Joey in a while either
[07:28] <nixternal> actually, I have only talked to #*-doc, #*-motu, and #kubuntu-devel
[07:28] <elkbuntu> hehe
[07:29] <nixternal> or #kde-*
[07:29] <nixternal> I am trying to spend more time with development stuff lately
[07:30] <elkbuntu> fair enough. it is the business end of the cycle
[07:31] <nixternal> ya, and after rewriting and creating a topic based help system for Kubuntu from scratch, I am worn out right now
[07:32] <elkbuntu> hehe
[07:32] <elkbuntu> i know the feeling
[07:32] <nixternal> I think I am pushing damn near half of my life on IRC
[07:32] <elkbuntu> lol
[07:32] <nixternal> the longest I have gone w/o being connected to an IRC server is maybe 1 or 2 days
[07:33] <nixternal> since IRC was born
[07:33] <nixternal> I went from BBS/Mud straight to it
[07:33] <nixternal> and I still can't figure it out :)
[07:33] <elkbuntu> lol
[07:33] <nixternal> hell, I had someone (a girl) prvmsg me the other day with a/s/l and was dead serious
[07:33] <nixternal> 12/f/in bed was my answer
[07:34] <nixternal> haha
[07:34] <elkbuntu> lol
[07:34] <nixternal> I was this .. close to blogging that one, but seeing the recent stuff that has been going on, I kind of figured that might be a touchy subject
[07:34] <nixternal> but it is still logged for a future date ;p
[07:34] <elkbuntu> i usually respond with 99/hermaphrodite/psych ward
[07:35] <nixternal> ooh nice
[07:35] <nixternal> makes me want to puke, but nice
[07:35] <elkbuntu> feel free to use it
[07:35] <nixternal> I just might add that one to my email signature
[07:35] <elkbuntu> lol
[07:37] <nixternal> ooh, I was wrong, in 4 days Ubuntu Chicago will be 1 year old
[07:37] <elkbuntu> hehe
[07:38] <nixternal> thank god for wikis and forum posts to keep you right on time
[07:39] <elkbuntu> yeah
[07:40] <elkbuntu> we're over a year formed, a few months from a year official though
[07:40] <elkbuntu> iirc
[07:41] <nixternal> I can't remember if Colorado and Chicago became official in June or July
[07:44] <nixternal> ColoradoTeam (JoeyStanford) (July 11) 
[07:44] <nixternal> KurdishTeam (ErdalRonahi) (July 11) 
[07:44] <nixternal> ChicagoTeam (RichJohnson) (July 11)
[07:44] <nixternal> well there you have it, it was a pain to locate since the "Get Info" ont he wiki only goes back so far
[07:44] <nixternal> so you take random guesses at the revision number until you get it
[07:46] <nixternal> oh well, time to crash...t-minus 8hrs and 15mins until my wonderful talk on Free, Open, Now talk
[07:46] <nixternal> g'nite to all lla ot etin'g
[02:30] <boredandblogging> poningru, ping
