nixternal | hey, anyone know that helios from the tux500 joke? | 04:50 |
Burgundavia | nope | 04:50 |
Burgundavia | although the lobby for linux people appear to have a slightly inflated idea of their own importance | 04:51 |
nixternal | ya | 04:51 |
nixternal | they emailed me threatening me and calling me pathetic | 04:51 |
Samyel | ? | 04:51 |
nixternal | I replied, and it wasn't nice | 04:51 |
Samyel | who are the lobby for linux people? | 04:52 |
Burgundavia | nixternal: care to forward me the email? | 04:52 |
nixternal | you know what, I don't need this shit man. this joke of a person emails me with that crap | 04:52 |
Samyel | <-- newbie | 04:52 |
nixternal | Burgundavia: yes | 04:52 |
boredandblogging | yeah, what are we talking about here? | 04:52 |
Burgundavia | that linux on racecar thingy | 04:52 |

boredandblogging | lol, interesting | 04:55 |
nixternal | part 1, part 2, and the rated R part 3 | 04:55 |
nixternal | it is funny, these people who run that crap have "donate money to my pocket" buttons everywhere | 04:56 |
boredandblogging | nixternal, why are they threatening you? | 04:56 |
nixternal | boredandblogging: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-marketing/2007-April/001840.html | 04:56 |
nixternal | you can see I was actually starting to support the idea, then I wasn't sure if I trusted it | 04:57 |
nixternal | now I hope it fails, and everyone donated a starbucks coffee for an ubuntu sticker on a lugnut | 04:57 |
boredandblogging | ahh, now I remember | 04:58 |
nixternal | omg | 04:58 |
nixternal | they are going to sponsor a car by a guy with 1 finish | 04:58 |
nixternal | in the indy 500 | 04:58 |
nixternal | they have a driver who don't even know what it is like to win, he just knows how to lose | 04:59 |
boredandblogging | ouch! | 04:59 |
nixternal | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stphane_Grgoire | 05:01 |
nixternal | yay for them | 05:01 |
Samyel | the trouble with basing your marketing on competative things is that it's very easy to attach "loser" to your name... | 05:02 |
Burgundavia | pretty much | 05:02 |
Samyel | without that having anything to do with your actual product | 05:02 |
Samyel | but if the car you're using to market yourself tanks out in an embarassing way, people will associate "flaming failure" with your name. | 05:02 |
adamant1988 | nixternal: Why were you threatened? | 05:03 |
Burgundavia | 35000 is also a lot of money | 05:03 |
Burgundavia | 350000, rather | 05:03 |
adamant1988 | A lot of money that COULD have been spent on the development of free software | 05:03 |
Samyel | Or a lot of money that could be divided into safer marketing endeavours | 05:03 |
Samyel | But I'm not a gambler. :) | 05:04 |
Burgundavia | you could pay several developers for a full year on that | 05:04 |
Burgundavia | Samyel: why exactly are we violating the 3m rule | 05:04 |
Burgundavia | ? | 05:04 |
adamant1988 | I would have preferred the software route, I could really use a decent photoshop alternative, I bet that much money would make a nice start. | 05:04 |
Samyel | Because I'd have to shout to talk to you from here. | 05:04 |
Samyel | Poor Burgundavia. Tormented by a girl who follows him onto IRC. Pity the man. | 05:05 |
adamant1988 | Has anyone looked over Ronnie's magazine? Who's arm do I need to twist to start getting that out there. | 05:05 |
Madpilot | these people actually have the $350,000 already? | 05:06 |
Burgundavia | Madpilot: no | 05:06 |
Samyel | adamant: I had a look through it. | 05:06 |
Burgundavia | it is out there | 05:06 |
Samyel | adamant: http://fullcirclemagazine.org/ | 05:07 |
boredandblogging | adamant1988, has the digg and reddit thing been done for the issue? | 05:07 |
adamant1988 | boredandblogging: No sir, I do need to do the digging, I expected beuno to get in touch with me (as he promised) when it was ready | 05:08 |
adamant1988 | It seems that didn't happen | 05:08 |
nixternal | Madpilot: they have like 3k, enough for a bumper sticker! | 05:08 |
nixternal | hahaha | 05:08 |
nixternal | and a keyfob | 05:08 |
Madpilot | nixternal, a small bumpersticker, at that... | 05:08 |
nixternal | lol | 05:08 |
nixternal | like the size of the ubuntu stickers you get via shipit | 05:08 |
adamant1988 | I just think they're wasting that | 05:09 |
adamant1988 | boredandblogging: Care to link me to the UWN for this week so I can digg this? | 05:09 |
boredandblogging | might also want to do what Burgundavia suggested, someone email ubuntu-news and ubuntu-announce | 05:09 |
boredandblogging | adamant1988, yeah, hold on | 05:09 |
nixternal | someone said 350k for some devs. that would be the best thing to do with that money | 05:09 |
adamant1988 | nixternal: Exactly my stance | 05:09 |
Burgundavia | adamant1988: uwn is on the wiki, as per usual | 05:09 |
adamant1988 | that money could be put to MUCH better use | 05:09 |
boredandblogging | adamant1988, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue36 | 05:09 |
nixternal | I will be at that race, and let me just tell you, 75% of the people who go, go for the booze and the noise, and probably don't even have a computer capable of running windows 95 | 05:09 |
adamant1988 | Burgundavia: I know it's that (for one reason or another) firefox is being extremely sketchy for me this evening. | 05:10 |
Samyel | it's hypothetical because they don't even have the money. What are the odds of raising that kind of $$$, anyway? | 05:10 |
Burgundavia | adamant1988: check the list archives | 05:10 |
Burgundavia | Samyel: nil | 05:10 |
nixternal | Samyel: they were actually on digg and slashdot, so I think that is how they have raised 3k so far, if that isn't inflated | 05:10 |
adamant1988 | Ok, I'm going to digg this. | 05:10 |

Samyel | Nixternal: 3K is a loooooooong way from 350K. | 05:11 |
nixternal | hell ya | 05:11 |
Samyel | Like ridiculously far. | 05:11 |
nixternal | and they have less than a month to do it | 05:11 |
Samyel | Maybe they meant NEXT year's? :) | 05:11 |
nixternal | the guy is like "we get 20k hits a day", and all you have to show for it is 3k | 05:11 |
nixternal | 15k hits are from the idiot hitting refresh to see if his money is getting fatter | 05:11 |
adamant1988 | boredandblogging: what do you propose I put for the story description? | 05:12 |
boredandblogging | adamant1988, there is a section call "In This Issue", basically list that stuff | 05:13 |
adamant1988 | boredandblogging: great, sorry | 05:13 |
boredandblogging | adamant1988, np | 05:14 |
=== samiam [n=samurai@74-134-139-205.dhcp.insightbb.com] has joined #ubuntu-marketing | ||
adamant1988 | I actually just chose to use the description at the top of the wiki | 05:15 |
boredandblogging | whatever gets to read ;-) | 05:16 |
adamant1988 | In this issue we cover Mark's announcement on the next Ubuntu release codename and schedule, Feisty Fawn's release parties and a small delay in the release candidate due to problems with certain ATA chipsets, although the final release is still expected on Thursday 19th. | 05:16 |
adamant1988 | is that acceptable? | 05:16 |
boredandblogging | i'd leave out the delay thing | 05:17 |
boredandblogging | push the positive thing | 05:17 |
boredandblogging | they'll see the delay once they read it | 05:17 |
Tm_T | mooh | 05:18 |
adamant1988 | In this issue we cover Mark's announcement on the next Ubuntu release codename and schedule, Feisty Fawn's release parties and more... | 05:18 |
adamant1988 | acceptable? | 05:18 |
Tm_T | yay for release parties \o/ | 05:19 |
boredandblogging | yeah | 05:19 |
=== Tm_T hopes all parties goes well | ||
boredandblogging | thats fine | 05:19 |
Tm_T | our is bit, well, in unstable state =) | 05:19 |
Tm_T | or something like that | 05:19 |
boredandblogging | "on the next Ubuntu release, codename, features, and schedule" | 05:19 |
boredandblogging | something like that | 05:20 |
adamant1988 | little late | 05:20 |
adamant1988 | haha | 05:20 |
boredandblogging | its fine either way | 05:20 |
adamant1988 | Ok, I did it as the first way | 05:21 |
Tm_T | mention parties | 05:21 |
boredandblogging | haha, yeah, mentioning parties is always good | 05:21 |
Tm_T | well, that will get people to parties =) | 05:21 |
Tm_T | I afraid we are doing big happening with press and all for ten of us =) | 05:22 |
Tm_T | local papers have big headline "OpenSource Release was boring" | 05:22 |
boredandblogging | lol | 05:22 |
Tm_T | we have reserved room with 70 seats with tables | 05:23 |
Tm_T | so roughly there can be over hundred =) | 05:23 |
Tm_T | I hope there will be people | 05:23 |
Tm_T | jenda: slap me when you're there | 05:24 |
adamant1988 | I would throw an install party, but the the LUG for Elkins, WV would be about... 4 people, roughly. 1 is a PCLinuxOS user, the other is a Slackware user, myself and my friend are both Ubuntu (or derivative) users | 05:25 |
Tm_T | :p | 05:26 |
adamant1988 | Yeah | 05:26 |
adamant1988 | So, basically, if you like technology WV is a bad place to be. | 05:26 |
Tm_T | WV is hmm, West Virginia? | 05:27 |
adamant1988 | Yes. | 05:29 |
adamant1988 | A state with a grand total of people less than 1/8th the population of New York city. | 05:29 |
Tm_T | adamant1988: and that's still more than any city in Finland I think ;) | 05:30 |
adamant1988 | Most of which who are labeled (rightfully in most cases) as "unskilled workers". | 05:30 |
Tm_T | :p | 05:30 |
adamant1988 | Tm_T: West Virginia's population as of the last census I saw was just a little over 1 million. | 05:30 |
Tm_T | yup, and biggest cities here has, well, 600 000 or so | 05:31 |
adamant1988 | Yeah, I won't go into that | 05:31 |
Tm_T | whole country 5.2 million =) | 05:31 |
adamant1988 | I think the largest city here floats around... MAYBE 30,000? | 05:31 |
adamant1988 | I know the town/city I live in is one of the few communities in the state large enough to actually have it's own Wal-Mart, and it has 9,000 people (give or take) | 05:32 |
Tm_T | hmm, ok, that is small, even "big city in east" (that means next to russian border) Joensuu, my "homecity", has 60 000 | 05:33 |
adamant1988 | My town is actually considered to be reasonably large, only defeated in size by the larger 'cities' in the state (Charleston, Clarksburg, Morgantown, etc.) | 05:34 |
Tm_T | :) | 05:34 |
Tm_T | I somehow start to love this less crowded part of the country | 05:34 |
Tm_T | I did watch documentation from tv about small village bit north from here, 11 citizens where 2 employed | 05:36 |

jenda | juliux: or else... | 10:04 |
jenda | juliux: I wonder if I can carry my suit over that longsleeve shirt so that the logo can be seen... | 10:05 |
juliux | MenZa, but they are to expansive to make them for normal expos, so we only can make it via reservation | 10:05 |
juliux | jenda, that shoudl work | 10:05 |
jenda | Nah - it would have to be unbuttoned... | 10:05 |
jenda | ergo: I need an Ubuntu tie :) | 10:05 |
MenZa | the polo shirt, juliux? | 10:05 |
rjian | hello guys :) | 10:05 |
Tm_T | juliux: business shirt, our marketing team prolly likes to have few at some point | 10:05 |
=== MenZa doesn't wear ties. | ||
juliux | MenZa, no business shirts | 10:06 |
MenZa | oh. | 10:06 |
juliux | MenZa, we will make around 160 t-shirts and polo-shirts | 10:06 |
MenZa | phew | 10:06 |
MenZa | the polo shirts totally float my boat | 10:06 |
juliux | so we have some on stock | 10:06 |
MenZa | Any plans for some black ones? | 10:06 |
rjian | hehe its that for free? | 10:06 |
=== juliux notes that MenZa wants a black one | ||
jenda | rjian: definitely | 10:07 |
jenda | rjian: as in speech, that is | 10:07 |
MenZa | I wear black shirts mostly, and a black Ubuntu polo would make my day | 10:07 |
jenda | :) | 10:07 |
MenZa | I'd probably get two, juliux | 10:07 |
mindspin | black ones would rock | 10:07 |
=== juliux notes that MenZa wants two a black polo shirts | ||
=== MenZa nods. | ||
rjian | jenda: hehehe | 10:07 |
MenZa | true dat, mindspin | 10:07 |

jenda | juliux: are you still thinking of them stickers? | 10:08 |
MenZa | jenda: bahaha | 10:08 |

jenda | pins == badges | 10:09 |
=== MehdiHassanpour [n=mehdi@ubuntu/member/MehdiHassanpour] has joined #ubuntu-marketing | ||
jenda | that would probably look better on a suit than a tie | 10:09 |

jenda | Hello Mithrandir | 01:02 |
jenda | where's your cloak :) | 01:03 |
jenda | (so much for staying off IRC today) | 01:03 |
MenZa | hehehehe | 01:03 |
Admiral_Chicago | jenda: he got busted playing around on Vista...his cloak was taken away. :0 | 01:03 |
jenda | it lasted a whole 20 minutes... as long as it took to make lunch :) | 01:03 |
jenda | haha | 01:04 |
jenda | :) | 01:04 |
Admiral_Chicago | to be fair....http://qdb.us/79712 | 01:04 |
Admiral_Chicago | jenda: thats the real traitor ^^ | 01:04 |
Mithrandir | hiya jenda, I don't use cloaks. | 01:04 |
jenda | okeydoke :) | 01:04 |
Mithrandir | so, since RC is obviously delayed we are making this a bit up as we go, but we now have a plan for how the announcements should happen. | 01:05 |
Admiral_Chicago | how is that? | 01:06 |
Mithrandir | I'm going to send this to the list as well, but I'd like to run it by you too. | 01:06 |
jenda | ok, cool | 01:06 |
Mithrandir | Press Release: this goes out via pressy-like methods, and there's just one for everyone -- it links to the download page | 01:07 |
Mithrandir | E-Mail Announcement: this goes to ubuntu-announce, and there's just one -- it's more basic than our current mail, and links to things like the press release, the download page (instead of a mirrors list), the release notes, tour, etc. | 01:07 |
Mithrandir | Release Notes: we've not really done this properly before, this will be a page on the website that lists the upgrade notes and known issues only | 01:07 |
Mithrandir | Tour: this goes on the wiki, and has screenshots; basically what we've called the release notes before | 01:07 |
jenda | The release notes to-date have shown too little info or too much? | 01:08 |
jenda | or the right amount, just wrong info :) | 01:08 |
jenda | ah | 01:09 |
=== jenda should finish reading before asking questions. | ||
Mithrandir | what we call release notes today (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyFawn/RC) is going to be called the tour. | 01:09 |
Mithrandir | which admittedly is a better name for it. | 01:09 |
jenda | yes, it prolly is | 01:09 |
jenda | Why don't the Press Releases link to the 'tour', Mithrandir? | 01:11 |
jenda | I'd think that would be a thing 'outsiders' would like to see. | 01:11 |
Mithrandir | it would make sense, except the press release was sent out some time ago, with an embargo on it. | 01:15 |
Mithrandir | so we can't change it. | 01:15 |
Mithrandir | I think we should make sure it happens for gutsy, though. | 01:15 |
jenda | eek | 01:15 |
jenda | ok | 01:15 |
Mithrandir | I believe it was also sent out to a bunch of -marketing people so it could be translated. | 01:16 |
jenda | yes, yes | 01:19 |
jenda | I was asking Ckenyon for a copy about 20 minutes before you joined the channel :) | 01:19 |
Mithrandir | oh, ok. :-) | 01:20 |
jenda | Okeydoke, I gotta run off again (virtually - just to another window :)) to do some work. | 01:24 |
