| Burgundavia | hey beuno | 01:07 |
| beuno | evening Burgundavia | 01:08 |
| nixternal | looks like everyone made membership | 01:12 |
| nixternal | txwikinger congrats! | 01:12 |
| txwikinger | Thanks nixternal | 01:12 |
| nixternal | my teacher just asked me what my GPLv3 t-shirt means | 01:12 |
| === nixternal drops the class | ||
| txwikinger | :D | 01:13 |
| txwikinger | teachers have usually lots of learning requirements even they don't admit it | 01:13 |
| nixternal | omfg | 01:13 |
| txwikinger | ? | 01:14 |
| nixternal | she just admitted she is a Linux user and instructor | 01:14 |
| nixternal | but doesn't know what the gpl is | 01:14 |
| txwikinger | and doesn't know gpl? | 01:14 |
| txwikinger | ok.. users sometimes don't know | 01:15 |
| nixternal | oh wow, she isn't all there...damn I got in the wrong class | 01:15 |
| txwikinger | what is that? Uni? | 01:16 |
| nixternal | ya | 01:16 |
| nixternal | this is scary | 01:16 |
| nixternal | she just said c# is replacing c++ | 01:16 |
| nixternal | I am scared, somebody hold me ;p | 01:16 |
| === txwikinger hopes nixternal is not scared if he admits being a lecturer at Uni :D | ||
| txwikinger | sounds like M$ brainwashing | 01:17 |
| nixternal | txwikinger: I lecture at a couple Uni's in the Chicago land area about Linux and Free Software, so I gotcha ;) | 01:17 |
| beuno | Burgundavia: I'm leaving in 20', was there something you wanted from me? | 01:17 |
| Burgundavia | beuno: not really | 01:17 |
| Burgundavia | just saying hi | 01:17 |
| txwikinger | I lectured compiler contruction and theory of CS | 01:17 |
| beuno | oh, that's nice of you :D | 01:18 |
| txwikinger | Now I am asked to develop a course about JDBC, .NET, and Hibernate and so on | 01:18 |
| beuno | I haven't slept in about 38 hours, so I'm probably going to get some sleep now | 01:18 |
| txwikinger | seems to be a virus here ... not sleeping and so | 01:18 |
| beuno | txwikinger: let's hope it doesn't stick for too long | 01:21 |
| txwikinger | :) | 01:22 |
| beuno | g'night Burgundavia | 01:25 |
| === beuno pokes jenda and leaves a "it's almost a done deal I'll be there by the 27th" and goes to bed | ||
| jenda | yo | 01:27 |
| jenda | beuno: :) | 01:27 |
| jenda | beuno: once it really is done, tell me - I'll get you a bus ticket. It'd be better if we don't have to scream to each other over the entire bus, dont'ya think? :) | 01:28 |
| jenda | (the tickets have seat numbers) | 01:28 |
| === beuno pretends not to of read that | ||
| beuno | :D | 01:29 |
| jenda | hehe | 01:30 |
| jenda | good night. | 01:30 |
| beuno | I'll decide in the enxt couple of days, need to secure my transportation from london to prague and I'll give you the thumbs up for the ticket | 01:30 |
| beuno | the sooner the better for all of us :D | 01:30 |
| jenda | Whoa... you're going to bed the same time I am? Is Globalization shifting timezones, too? :) | 01:30 |
| jenda | beuno: | 01:30 |
| jenda | My ticket isn't reserved for that particular bus yet either, so no hurry, methinks. | 01:31 |
| beuno | jenda: it's either globalization or the fact the I haven't slept in 38 hours | 01:31 |
| beuno | one of those two | 01:31 |
| jenda | hehee | 01:31 |
| jenda | ok | 01:31 |
| jenda | Good night :) | 01:32 |

| nixternal_ | Burgwork: I am home now..what's up? | 05:21 |
| nixternal_ | Burgundavia: ^^ | 05:23 |
| Burgundavia | was kicking around an idea last night | 05:24 |
| Burgundavia | the basic idea is thus: use the power of our massive loco teams to help influence gov't to support Open Source and get rid of DMCA/software patents | 05:25 |
| Burgundavia | basically a "WriteYourRepresentative" | 05:25 |
| Burgundavia | what hte marketing team woudl do would be write a basic letter, one for the federal level, one for the state/provinical and one for the local level | 05:26 |
| Burgundavia | nixternal_: ^ | 05:26 |
| nixternal_ | hehe, me and manchicken have been doing so already | 05:26 |
| Burgundavia | excellent | 05:27 |
| nixternal_ | he has received 1 response from the person he sent it to, however it is vanilla. so far my responses have been from a bunch of lackies | 05:27 |
| Burgundavia | figured something like this was already being done | 05:27 |
| nixternal_ | I don't know if everyone is doing it | 05:27 |
| nixternal_ | but I am going to start another round, which I will make public | 05:27 |
| vorian | I would be down with that.... | 05:27 |
| nixternal_ | but that is a good idea to have a basic letter format though | 05:28 |
| Burgundavia | ok, sounds good | 05:28 |
| nixternal_ | and try to keep it somewhat personal, as the people who you are sending them to, supposedly represent you and consider you their friend | 05:28 |
| nixternal_ | at least that is the BS our government tells us | 05:28 |
| Burgundavia | heh | 05:28 |
| nixternal_ | but we all watch the news :) | 05:28 |
| Burgundavia | the idea would be that specific loco teams would create specific letters for their members to send | 05:29 |
| nixternal_ | my county's courthouse uses Ubuntu in all of their public kiosks | 05:29 |
| nixternal_ | I heard the familiar startup tune waiting for my line of questioning for jury duty | 05:29 |
| nixternal_ | to bad they don't think we need more drug dealers as well | 05:30 |
| Burgundavia | anyway, shall we get this going? | 05:32 |
| nixternal_ | +1 from me | 05:32 |
| Burgundavia | if I create the basic page, can you get teh chicago letters up? | 05:32 |
| nixternal_ | sure can | 05:32 |
| nixternal_ | manchicken (Michael D. Stemle Jr.) blogged his recently on the planet | 05:33 |
| nixternal_ | here is the great thing about me...I didn't save a soft copy :) | 05:33 |
| nixternal_ | but I plan on resending anyways, because I am not happy with someone who isn't even my representative responding | 05:33 |
| vorian | I can get some letters out as well (.../me from ohio) | 05:33 |
| nixternal_ | i.e., a page or such, and everyone seen the news and just what these pages are all about :) | 05:33 |

| Burgundavia | nixternal: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WriteYourRepresentative | 05:46 |
| nixternal | hahaha | 05:47 |
| nixternal | good deal...now to come up witha generic letter | 05:47 |
| Burgundavia | can you start dumping stuff from your letter on that generic page? | 05:48 |
| nixternal | I sure can | 05:48 |
