maelcum | hi! i have a box of kubuntu cds that i want to distribute at my university in a more effective way than just throw them on some tables and hope for the best. any hints? | 01:16 |
---|---|---|
Burgundavia | maelcum: absolutely | 01:18 |
Burgundavia | for cds, remember that they cost money and thus try and give them out to peopel who are useful | 01:19 |
Burgundavia | I would print off some pamphlets and leave those out | 01:19 |
Burgundavia | whenever you engage somebody in conversation and they seem interested, give them a cd | 01:19 |
maelcum | well... i have a whole box and i'm willing to invest about 2 hours at university and about as much at home... and i hate the people standing in your way and handing stuff out to you (happens a lot at my uni), and i'd hate even more to do it myself. it's probably the most effective use of cds, but not of my time :/ | 01:22 |
maelcum | i develop kde in my spare time, so it's not like i'm slacking off when i'm not distributing cds :) | 01:23 |
Admiral_Chicago | the best thing I have found is get people interest in an actual conversation | 01:38 |
Admiral_Chicago | and people will ask questions | 01:38 |
maelcum | i can do that in some cases... i'll just make sure to always carry some cds with in my backpack ;) | 01:40 |
maelcum | s/with/with me/ | 01:40 |

Bassetts | hey jenda | 10:05 |
Bassetts | I got some more of that wiki page done last night, but theres not as much stuff around as I first though | 10:05 |
Bassetts | *thought | 10:05 |
jenda | hmm | 10:19 |
jenda | heya :) | 10:19 |
jenda | (took me a long time to come up with that) | 10:20 |
jenda | Bassetts: there's a ton of stuff at diy.devubuntu.com/repo/spreadubuntu | 10:22 |
jenda | but for some reason, it's down now :( | 10:22 |
jenda | And I'll be awaf for about a week. | 10:22 |
jenda | Perhaps you can find out why, for me :) | 10:22 |
=== jenda tucks in a 'please' | ||
jenda | The people to talk to are MitchM, the owner of the server and Dan Buch (meatballhat), whom you've already met. | 10:23 |
Bassetts | jenda, I will do my best =) | 10:26 |
jenda | thanks :) | 10:28 |
=== Bassetts puts names down into personal wiki | ||
Bassetts | jenda, any leads on where to find them | 10:31 |
jenda | Bassetts: either right here when they come, or... | 10:35 |
jenda | by email: mitch kci.net ; meatballhat ubuntu.com | 10:38 |
jenda | but probably try meatballhat first | 10:38 |
jenda | bah | 10:38 |
Bassetts | ok | 10:38 |
jenda | Bassetts: nevermind, I just realised I have to write Dan an email anyway. | 10:38 |

juliux | jenda, which loco one? | 12:05 |
jenda | O_o | 12:05 |
juliux | jenda, that one that allows us to use the trademarks? | 12:05 |
jenda | the contract between the Ubuntu DE association and canonical? | 12:05 |
jenda | yep | 12:05 |
Vorian | n2diy, the bot is on another freenode server that has split | 12:05 |
n2diy | Vorian: so he is on vacation? | 12:06 |

Vorian | it's split :( | 12:09 |

jenda | Which basically means... the license means nothing at all ;) | 12:10 |
n2diy | Vorian: ah, and I thought he was playing with asyc. transfer mode, or something like that? Bad bot! | 12:11 |
Vorian | :) | 12:12 |

jenda | sorry, washing dishes, bb in 20 :) | 12:13 |
juliux | jenda, we have a licens and that is everything | 12:15 |
jenda | juliux: the license states you have to follow the default licence: the trademark policy. | 12:21 |
jenda | It's the same licence that applies to anyone. Or isn't it? Is there something the licence allows you to do that others can't? | 12:22 |

nixternal | cool | 04:36 |

nixternal | holy smokes | 05:13 |
elkbuntu | yeah | 05:14 |
elkbuntu | i'm betting that's even more than the 30000 calorie sandwich | 05:14 |
nixternal | hehe | 05:15 |
nixternal | there is a restaurant just north of Chicago that serves a 5 pound burger, that thing is huge, and people actually try to eat it | 05:16 |
elkbuntu | lol | 05:16 |
nixternal | one of the guys I weight lift with, ate it and won $500 for finishing it in 30 minutes | 05:16 |
nixternal | I couldn't get through half of it | 05:17 |
elkbuntu | http://www.nanbelegorn.com/sandwich/ | 05:17 |
elkbuntu | 5 pound of food in 30 minutes? ugh | 05:17 |
nixternal | I couldn't eat that in a day | 05:17 |
nixternal | damn, guess I should quit eating fried mushrooms | 05:18 |
elkbuntu | lol | 05:18 |
nixternal | they are one of my staple foods though :) | 05:18 |
elkbuntu | ugh... mushrooms are yuck | 05:18 |
nixternal | never | 05:18 |
elkbuntu | as are things that are supposed to reside in the insides of animals | 05:18 |
nixternal | I try to eat half a pound a day...good source of nutrition | 05:18 |
elkbuntu | not when they're fried they're not | 05:19 |
elkbuntu | unless cholesterol is a nutrient in your country : | 05:19 |
nixternal | hehe, well I tend to eat them raw, but every now and then, them little jerks get thrown in a tub of bubbling oil :) | 05:19 |
nixternal | actually, considering the junk I eat, I can't believe my cholesterol is good | 05:20 |
nixternal | I mix junk with protein shakes, vitamins, supplements, and good organic food | 05:20 |
nixternal | I can't do the total weight lifting diet thing, I am not all that disciplined just yet :) | 05:21 |
elkbuntu | hehe... the mere smell of mushroom makes me nauseous. | 05:21 |
nixternal | come on, I live in Chicago, it is a must that you eat Polish Sausage, Hot Dogs, Gyros, and Pizza | 05:21 |
elkbuntu | i live in australia and i only eat sausages and steak under duress | 05:22 |
nixternal | mmmm | 05:22 |
nixternal | steak | 05:22 |
elkbuntu | it ranks slightly higher than sausage | 05:22 |
nixternal | lol | 05:23 |
nixternal | it ranks #2, only behind lobster or crab for me | 05:23 |
elkbuntu | im not a red meat type of girl. seafood, chicken and pork for me kthx | 05:23 |
elkbuntu | and we are waaaaaaay offtopic for this channel | 05:24 |
nixternal | I can't do pork, but the rest I can | 05:24 |
nixternal | elkbuntu: any topic in this channel is good though :) | 05:24 |
nixternal | since it is always so quiet | 05:24 |
elkbuntu | lol, good point. mdke isnt here to whip us back on topic anymore | 05:25 |
nixternal | nope, mdke is to busy being whipped by the new wife | 05:25 |
nixternal | oops, did I say that out loud? | 05:25 |
elkbuntu | so, why not pork? | 05:25 |
elkbuntu | lol | 05:25 |
nixternal | never been a fan of an animal that rolls around where it does | 05:26 |
elkbuntu | um... but you're fine with seafood? | 05:26 |
nixternal | ya, the salt water cleans it out :) | 05:28 |
elkbuntu | hahaha. nice try | 05:29 |
nixternal | pork has a texture that doesn't agree with me really | 05:29 |
nixternal | I will eat a pork chop every now and then though, as I can deal with it and actually enjoy it | 05:29 |
nixternal | but ham I can't | 05:30 |
elkbuntu | that makes a difference, yes. i'll happily eat beef in a stew or stirfry, but struggle with it as a steak | 05:31 |
elkbuntu | lamb likewise | 05:31 |
nixternal | orly...lamb I really enjoy, but that could be due to being previously married to greek woman | 05:32 |
nixternal | and possibly one day married again to that same greek woman :) | 05:32 |
nixternal | she made me eat stuff I wouldn't ever imagine, and I enjoyed it | 05:33 |
elkbuntu | hehe | 05:33 |
nixternal | like eggplant, my lord that is good stuff | 05:33 |
elkbuntu | if cooked properly, yeah | 05:33 |

dee | hello | 07:27 |
dee | We (German Ubuntu News team) have send a email to the mailing list ubuntu-marketing-submissions. Unfortunately nobody has answered since. | 07:28 |
dee | it is possible to receive an answer? | 07:28 |
beuno | dee: I don't see any admins around, but I'll spread the word :D | 07:48 |
dee | beuno: thanks. | 07:49 |
dee | you won't guess what's the topic of the mail: "better communication between Ubuntu Marketing and German-News-Team". ;) | 07:49 |
beuno | dee: aaaw... the irony.... | 07:51 |
dee | yes... kinda funny | 07:52 |
dee | or kinda sad... matter of view point | 07:52 |
beuno | dee: actually, why was that not sent to the plain marketing list? | 07:54 |
dee | beuno: was ist the first time. | 07:57 |
dee | but because the list is closed the mails stops on teh server and an admin needs to forward it. | 07:58 |
dee | some user (need to take a look at the logs) said I should send it again. | 07:58 |
dee | and then I have seen the suggestion-mailing list. | 07:58 |
beuno | dee: you can just subscribe and your emails will go straight through | 07:58 |
beuno | but for discussions, the ubuntu-marketing is the list | 07:59 |
beuno | the other is to send stories | 07:59 |
dee | yes I know. but I don't want to subscribe because I do not want to discuss something there. | 07:59 |
dee | I have thought it's possible to mail it directly | 07:59 |
beuno | dee: then how will you participate in the discussion if you don't subscribe? | 08:00 |
dee | beuno: ehrm no... I haven't thought that there must be a big discussion between the whole community. :( | 08:00 |
beuno | dee: not discussion in a bad sense, just "conversation", a conversation | 08:02 |
beuno | if you forward your email to me, I'll make sure it gets into the mailing list :D | 08:02 |
dee | nah, it's okay. I suppose I must subscribe... I can delete my subscription afterwards | 08:05 |
beuno | dee: yes, and also, email filters are your friend :p | 08:05 |
n2diy | how much traffic does the discussion list generate? | 08:08 |
beuno | n2diy: the regular one maybe has an average of 6 or 7 emails per week | 08:10 |
dee | so, mail is send. | 08:10 |
dee | eh, sent... I think. | 08:10 |
n2diy | beuno, ok, I get more junk mail per day than that. | 08:11 |
beuno | n2diy: absolutely | 08:11 |
dee | ah, damn | 08:11 |
beuno | dee: did you send to ubuntu-marketing? | 08:12 |
dee | yes | 08:12 |
dee | but forget that I first must confirm my subscription. :( | 08:12 |
dee | so I will send it again | 08:12 |
beuno | heh | 08:12 |
