Ace2016what do you guys do in here?00:21
Prefixyeah its like local teams that advertise ubuntu i think00:21
FlannelAce2016: LOcal COmmunity.  Country (and more) based teams that promote Ubuntu00:21
Flannel!loco00:21
ubotuInformation on Ubuntu Local Community Teams is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeams00:21
Ace2016so is ubuntu the distro linked with ubuntu cola?00:22
* Ace2016 doesn't like ubuntu cola00:22
DPichello all00:24
FlannelAce2016: No00:26
FlannelHowdy DPic00:26
DPicwhat should we talk about at out last meeting before the hardy release? 00:27
Ace2016how can ubuntu cola and ubuntu the distro be not related but still go under the name ubuntu?00:27
Ace2016DPic: whats new in it00:27
DPicAce2016: what's new in hardy? 00:27
Ace2016changes to the installer and wubi00:27
DPici mean, what were you asking00:28
FlannelAce2016: the same way you can have Apple records and Apple macintosh00:28
Ace2016still, its kind of messed up, didn't ubuntu trademark its name? or can it not because its a dictionary word00:29
FlannelAce2016: There is a trademark, but trademarks only apply to the same realm.  Unless you're implying that drinks are somewhat close to computers00:30
FlannelAce2016: http://www.ubuntu.com/aboutus/trademarkpolicy00:30
Ace2016i still think the link is bad, if people don't like the cola they might shy away from the distro00:31
PrefixFlannel, thats intresting, I didn't know trademarks were limited to the same type00:32
Ace2016so in theory i could have a company called microsoft that imports tiny pillows?00:32
DPicand they might not like the distro if canonical goes after a cola company for their name00:32
Ace2016can't they ask them to change their name?00:32
Ace2016http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/software/windows-vista-soft-drink-191357.php00:34
Ace2016i want that00:34
FlannelPrefix: Its not "same type" its same realm, or some other noun.  Like two food based products would count, for instance.00:34
Ace2016omg apple juice in a white can with a grey apple logo, that'd be AWESOME!00:35
