| Bassetts | hi, I have just signed up to the marketing team | 12:57 |
|---|---|---|
| jenda | Bassetts: welcome :) | 01:05 |
| jenda | beuno: any lick with jono? | 01:05 |
| jenda | erm... | 01:05 |
| jenda | luck | 01:05 |
| jenda | :) | 01:05 |
| jenda | damn dvorak :) | 01:05 |
| Bassetts | jenda, hi, not too sure on what I am supposed to do but I am looking around the wiki | 01:07 |
| jenda | Bassetts: there is no real 'supposed to do' ;) | 01:08 |
| Bassetts | jenda, right, well I have always been interested in the spreadubuntu project which is what lead me to joining. | 01:09 |
| Bassetts | what would you recommend I did to get started and learn the ropes? | 01:09 |
| jenda | weeell :) | 01:10 |
| jenda | I work on SU | 01:10 |
| jenda | Let's see | 01:10 |
| Bassetts | :) cool | 01:10 |
| jenda | we've kinda cut down the project to make it more accomplishable | 01:10 |
| jenda | so we focus on the DIY Marketing aspect of it. | 01:11 |
| jenda | See MarketingTeam/DIYWebsite | 01:11 |
| jenda | that is what has become of SU | 01:11 |
| jenda | the people working on it are Dan Buch (meatballhat) and I, with two other folks who offered to help set up Drupal, but are now unresponsive. | 01:12 |
| jenda | I've been way too busy till recently to push it forward, but I'm back now, and I'm trying to rally the team to do some work again. | 01:12 |
| Bassetts | I remember this a few years ago when I was active a bit more around here. | 01:13 |
| Bassetts | I think I remember you now | 01:13 |
| jenda | maybe :) | 01:13 |
| Bassetts | I am reading that page now | 01:14 |
| Bassetts | jenda, I do not have much experience with web design other than a few wordpress sites, basic html and I forgot most of the css I learnt, but I am attempting to learn php and css again. | 01:15 |
| Bassetts | But I suspect like a lot of projects there are other things to do and any help is appreciate | 01:16 |
| Bassetts | *appreciated | 01:16 |
| jenda | Certainly :) | 01:18 |
| jenda | The trouble is I haven't really managed to find my way around the project again yet. | 01:18 |
| jenda | But I think we are now waiting for someone to make the drupal system for it. We already have the database ready. | 01:19 |
| Bassetts | jenda, OK well I am more than happy to help as this is my sort of thing. | 01:19 |
| jenda | I'll do my best to catch Dan | 01:19 |
| jenda | and ask | 01:19 |
| jenda | ok, cool | 01:19 |
| jenda | Bassetts: DIY or Drupal is? | 01:19 |
| Bassetts | just general website/web design stuff | 01:19 |
| jenda | cool | 01:20 |
| jenda | Will you give me your name and jabber/msn/icq/aim? | 01:20 |
| Bassetts | Jason Liquorish, msn: jason@dropshock.com | 01:20 |
| jenda | so I can contact you when we arrange a first-in-a-long-time meeting. | 01:20 |
| jenda | cool, thx | 01:20 |
| Bassetts | and that is also my email | 01:20 |
| jenda | gotcha | 01:21 |
| Bassetts | =) | 01:21 |
| jenda | you can also check out how far we got with the previous plan at diy.devubuntu.com | 01:21 |
| jenda | I'll try to push this onward as soon as I can. | 01:21 |
| jenda | although I still have a lot of work to keep up with :/ | 01:22 |
| Bassetts | jenda, sure =) if you have any simple boring jobs that you could do with out just send them my way. | 01:22 |
| jenda | Bassetts: there's always the task of organising content :D | 01:23 |
| jenda | Bassetts: if you check out the above link and the /Get subpage, that's how /Print should eventually look | 01:24 |
| jenda | But that's a very boring task, and probably infinite :D | 01:24 |
| Bassetts | jenda, sure, I will try my best at anything you give me and if I cannot do it I will just say, I will not pretend I can if I cannot as that would just slow us down | 01:24 |
| jenda | (grabbing all sorts of downloadable materials from the internet and categorising them on the page) | 01:24 |
| jenda | sweet :) | 01:25 |
| jenda | the problem is, once the database frontend is finished, it'll all have to be manually moved there. | 01:25 |
| jenda | Still - it will be easier if the stuff is assembled on /Print | 01:25 |
| jenda | And if you begin working on this - prioritize such stuff that is release-independent or easily updatable. | 01:26 |
| jenda | :) | 01:26 |
| jenda | "I will not pretend I can if I cannot as that would just slow us down | 01:26 |
| jenda | " | 01:26 |
| jenda | ^ we have had way too many of those ;) | 01:26 |
| Bassetts | yeh, I have worked with too many people in my short life time that say they can and they cannot | 01:27 |
| Bassetts | so I need to find marketing materials for ubuntu and anything that has a specific version attached to it or is easily updated has a high priority? | 01:28 |
| jenda | no, no no :) | 01:29 |
| jenda | anything that _doesn't_ has a high priority | 01:29 |
| jenda | compared to those that do | 01:30 |
| jenda | because feisty stuff will be outdated before we're done :) | 01:30 |
| jenda | and gutsy stuff is very likely not ready enough yet | 01:30 |
| Bassetts | jenda, OK so, anything with feisty on is low priority and gutsy will be higher. | 01:30 |
| jenda | not to mention edgy/dapper/breezy/hoary/warty | 01:30 |
| jenda | no :) | 01:30 |
| Bassetts | sorry I am hard to explain to sometimes | 01:31 |
| jenda | anything with Feisty, Gutsy or any other release has a low priority | 01:31 |
| jenda | anything that is independent on the release has a high priority :) | 01:31 |
| Bassetts | OK, becuase it can get outdated easy | 01:31 |
| jenda | if it says "Ubuntu is great" it's good, if it says "Feisty rocks" it's not good :) | 01:31 |
| Bassetts | because it fits any release and could be a permanent marketing material | 01:31 |
| Bassetts | am I getting there ? | 01:31 |
| jenda | (unless it's an .svg file which can easily be changed to "Gutsy rocks" | 01:31 |
| jenda | yes | 01:31 |
| jenda | :) | 01:31 |
| jenda | you've got it | 01:32 |
| Bassetts | so a good place to start is to scour the wiki/main site for anything usable already? | 01:32 |
| jenda | :) | 01:35 |
| jenda | yep | 01:35 |
| jenda | DIYMarketing already has some stuff | 01:35 |
| jenda | Artwork/Official also does | 01:35 |
| Bassetts | I will start looking today, I am looking for stuff that is ready to print, or can be used to make printable materials, or both? | 01:36 |
| jenda | both, pretty much | 01:39 |
| Bassetts | jenda, OK, I hope I make the wiki page right, new to the wiki | 01:39 |
| Bassetts | shall I put it on MarketingTeam/Print? | 01:40 |
| jenda | nope | 01:41 |
| jenda | have a look at MarketingTeam/DIYWebsite/Get | 01:42 |
| Bassetts | ok | 01:42 |
| jenda | and make a https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/DIYWebsite/Print | 01:43 |
| jenda | along that | 01:43 |
| jenda | the actual fields needed might differ - add and remove them as you see fit. | 01:43 |
| Bassetts | OK, sorry for all my questions, I will get better at knowing what needs doing as time goes on, I hope | 01:44 |
| jenda | no problem :) | 01:44 |
| Bassetts | for a preview shall I link to the art work that is already about or do I need to upload it somewhere | 01:45 |
| jenda | you can link to it. | 01:47 |
| jenda | (it's better to link to it) | 01:47 |
| jenda | I gotta run off. | 01:47 |
| jenda | I'll see you around, and thanks for the help :) | 01:47 |
| Bassetts | jenda, thanks for all the help, sorry for all the questions | 01:48 |
| jenda | Bassetts: no problem at all :) | 02:19 |
| jenda | Bassetts: actually, I'm just talking to Dan | 02:19 |

| Bassetts | you too meatballhat | 02:26 |
| === meatballhat [n=dbuch@ubuntu/member/meatballhat] has left #ubuntu-marketing ["/me] | ||
| Bassetts | jenda, there is not much version independent stuff around. | 02:27 |
| jenda | Bassetts: really? | 02:28 |
| jenda | All them logos and banners have feisty on them? | 02:28 |
| Bassetts | on DIY Marketing its all versioned | 02:28 |
| jenda | hm | 02:28 |
| jenda | well, take it too. | 02:28 |
| jenda | Bassetts: in that case, another field will be needed: Release: Feistey/Gutsy/All | 02:28 |
| Bassetts | I am putting them into sections Version independent and Version dependant | 02:28 |
| jenda | naaah | 02:29 |
| Bassetts | ahh, some are .svg though | 02:29 |
| jenda | it's not all that important a distinction | 02:29 |
| Bassetts | right | 02:29 |
| jenda | just add a field saying which versions it works for. | 02:29 |
| Bassetts | for .svg sutff I will make a comment it could be edited for future versions | 02:29 |
| jenda | cool :) | 02:32 |
| Bassetts | is this just for ubuntu or kubuntu/xubuntu/edubuntu also? | 02:34 |
