=== pep` is now known as pep
hubuntuI'm working with a professional photograåher and a post production business to make a Ubuntu commercial for the web (youtube, ubuntuvideo, etc...)13:04
hubuntunow I want to show that Ubuntu is not only used by hackers and geeks, but also children, grandpas, girlfriends.13:05
hubuntuSo the idea is to make a commercial that has nothing to do with ubuntu as a technology, but rather as something in the background while showing the "spirit" of Ubuntu13:06
hubuntushow in a MID, in a laptop, in a kiosk, in a computer, in a school lab13:06
pep`nice :)13:07
hubuntuIf anybody would be interested in giving concrete ideas for the script of the video or have any kind of input I would welcome it13:07
hubuntuWe are shooting in september, so there is time if anybody is interested13:08
hubuntuhey pep, I saw the emails13:09
pep`hubuntu: I'm writing another one 13:09
hubuntuI see Onno's point, but still I believe we can work on the design at this stage as long as it is not too detailed13:10
pep`hubuntu: I remember that I was really touched by this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwL0G9wK8j4&feature=related13:10
pep`yeah13:10
pep`I wrote that, the questions he asked don't keep desing thinking of happening, they don't interfere...13:10
pep`design*13:10
hubuntuI know, I think we need to clarify this and we should send an email to the marketing list as well as the su list about the meeting., It seems people is not aware of it taking plavce13:12
pep`Yes13:13
pep`I was going to do that after this e-mail13:13
pep`I was really surprised btw when Onno asked what was happening saturday, because it was on the list13:13

hubuntu*Houbsi13:35
hubuntuLeonov will be used as a start for SUgui and we will implement plug-ins for it so elements can be edited from within the app (+/- 1 years from now)13:36
pep(we've got to clarify how and in which extent we are going to use launchpad, I must say that I haven't completely seen through this... maybe you can make things clearer... I asked the question in my e-mail to the list...)13:37
hubuntu(I saw it, and the way I see it we have no choice, but we need to become better at it)13:39
pepat lp? :D13:39
pepyeah13:39
pepreally^^13:39
pepI'm working on it :)13:40
pepthat's why io started the blueprint and the bazaar branch for the drupal template, to get the grips a bit more13:40
hubuntuLaunchpad will have the elements in their DVCS so we can track different versions and keep high quality versions of the material without killing our bandwidth or storage space13:40
pepyeah, good13:40
hubuntuthe site will have the latest copy of the elements as well as a database pointing to the original elements stored in LP13:41

hubuntuLP will be used for translations, request tracking13:42
pepOh, yeah i forgot al that in my e-mail!13:42
