DPic | hi | 00:04 |
boredandblogging | in meeting? ok | 00:04 |
maccam94 | i take it we've already learned from that article that was on digg a while back? | 02:02 |
maccam94 | http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=clnk&cd=6&url=http%3A%2F%2F64.233.169.104%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Dcache%3AB1jvt3wvqC0J%3Ablog.gobanquet.com%2Findex.php%2Fwhy-ubuntu-804-needs-better-marketing%2F%2B%2522Let%25E2%2580%2599s%2Bfix%2Bthat%2C%2Bby%2Blooking%2Bat%2Bhow%2Bthe%2B7.10%2Bannouncement%2Bcould%2Bbe%2Bimproved.%2522%26hl%3Den%26ct%3Dclnk%26cd%3D6%26gl%3Dus%26client%3Dfirefox-a&ei=Wa_pR-6cK5T2eYa13JUP&usg=AFQjCNHIWAU7kIAJAqLW | 02:14 |
maccam94 | the original site is temporarily offline for some reason | 02:14 |
maccam94 | we should also keep in mind that we aren't marketing this release as an upgrade. marketing materials shouldn't just be about what's _new_, they should be about ubuntu overall | 02:17 |
Flannel | and included in that, to some extent, is what Linux is. | 02:19 |
maccam94 | Flannel: indeed | 02:19 |
maccam94 | btw, my comments are in reference to the upcoming Hardy release | 02:19 |
boredandblogging | may I suggest tinyurl? | 02:50 |
maccam94 | boredandblogging: sorry, i have an aversion to it (in general they can lead to unsafe things, it's just a habit) | 03:32 |
boredandblogging | believe there is a preview thing on tinyurl | 03:34 |
boredandblogging | but I get what you mean | 03:34 |
pleaseandthankyo | how can i load goubuntu? | 06:05 |
katkin | popey: ping | 09:50 |
popey | katkin: pong | 11:41 |
katkin | popey: hey, did you see my e-mail? | 11:42 |
popey | yes, already added it to my site, and now added to screencasts and will add to the uk podcast site too | 11:43 |
popey | katkin: also sent a mail to our loco team to encourage them to add to their blogs/sites | 11:48 |

mrec | hi, anyone awake? | 14:02 |
mrec | I wonder about the legal issues with ubuntu, eg. royalty fees for mpeg and dolby? | 14:02 |
cody-somerville | Hello mrec | 14:02 |
mrec | I'm concerned about that when making binary packages for ubuntu actually | 14:03 |
mrec | sourcecode is available too | 14:03 |
mrec | hi cody | 14:03 |
cody-somerville | Ubuntu only ships Open Source Software, ie. Free Software. | 14:03 |
mrec | I've been told that Dolby charges on a per app basis | 14:03 |
mrec | MPEG charges a package fee, buy one time use it as often as you want | 14:04 |
mrec | well Dolby support is included in ffmpeg .. | 14:04 |
mrec | so the question is how does ubuntu deal with that? | 14:05 |
mrec | I just don't want to get sued otherwise I wouldn't care | 14:05 |
mrec | ubuntu also ships binary only drivers (eg. ati as far as I know) | 14:07 |
mrec | although that's not the topic, since I only have free opensource software.. | 14:08 |
cody-somerville | Ubuntu doesn't provide that software | 14:10 |
cody-somerville | You can either purchase it yourself or you can download it (which may or may be illegal in your country). | 14:11 |
cody-somerville | For more information, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats | 14:12 |
cody-somerville | For further support with Ubuntu, please see the #ubuntu IRC channel. :) | 14:12 |
mrec | cody-somerville: ok thanks | 14:25 |
mrec | I hoped there would have been a better way | 14:25 |
cody-somerville | mrec, There is codec buddy | 14:26 |
