[11:57] <thorwil> nand: do you think i'd be eligible for ubuntu membership?
[11:59] <thorwil> after reading a few applicants wiki pages, i feel like a lone warrior
[12:01] <nand> thorwil: I'm not aware of all you did for Ubuntu. It would depend on how much you did, and on how long was your effort. A good tip would be to see one of the upcoming council to get an idea, and ask the council member at the end of the meeting
[12:02] <thorwil> hmm, ok
[12:03] <nand> they are regularly scheduled, every two weeks IIRC
[12:03] <nand> or week
[12:04] <thorwil> regional meetings don't appear in upcoming events on the fridge?
[12:05] <thorwil> nm, calendar has them
[12:05] <thorwil> and then i wonder how i should organize artwork on bzr/launchpad
[12:05] <thorwil> say, i intend to make a collection of backgrounds
[12:06] <thorwil> each background as branch in one project?
[12:07] <nand> you can put lots of stuff in one branch... I guess it's better than having a pletora of branches
[12:08] <nand> and I'm not the best placed again for artwork & bazaar :)
[12:09] <thorwil> does bzr have running rev count for everthing in a repo like svn?
[12:09] <nand> yep, not like git
[12:11] <nand> and ideally you should make your work packageable (well, not for simple stuff like wallpapers, but for themes, yes). Maybe time to learn packaging!
[12:12] <thorwil> the goal would be a wallpaper package in the end. even if just to get to know the infrastructure
[12:13] <thorwil> any suggestions what that would mean for repo/branch structure?
[12:14] <nand> well, you can use any directory suggestion you like, since the packaging will adapt itself to it
[12:14] <nand> e.g. for brainstorm, I have:
[12:14] <nand> artwork/
[12:14] <nand> artwork/ubuntu-theme/
[12:14] <nand> code/
[12:14] <nand> code/module/
[12:15] <nand> code/module/qapoll/
[12:15] <nand> and so on...
[12:45] <thorwil> bzr: ERROR: Target directory sftp://t-w-@bazaar.launchpad.net/~t-w-/ubuntu-artwork/thorwils_backgrounds already exists, but does not have a valid .bzr directory. Supply --use-existing-dir to push there anyway.
[12:45] <thorwil> ??
[12:48] <nand> thorwil: indeed, just do it:)
[12:48] <nand> that on the first push
[12:49] <thorwil> that command is not quite clear about which one is meant
[12:49] <thorwil> but yes, just found bug report
[12:53] <thorwil> cute
[17:16] <thorwil> nand: can't you give that mr. reiter some privileges? :)
[17:17] <nand> thorwil: I was thinking about it :)
[17:28] <nand> thorwil: so how your experiments with bzr going?
[17:29] <thorwil> nand: well, i have my branch and i'm on rev 2. so far so good
[17:29] <nand> already tried the packaging?
[17:30] <thorwil> nope. i will not do so until i have something worthwhile
[17:35]  * _MMA_ likes bzr because if you set things up right you can build .debs from it. bzr-buildpackage --native.
[17:37] <nand> Not aware of this command... Does it assume your branch is set up the way you want the files to be installed?
[17:39] <_MMA_> Yes. The branch needs to be set up correctly 1st. And the command I think was bzr-builddeb.
[17:40] <_MMA_> I can have the package and command flipped. Either way its in the repos.
[17:41]  * thorwil -> dinner

[19:09] <MadsRH> Does anyone know what is happening with the bootscreen? Witch team is working on this?
[19:10] <_MMA_> As far as?
[19:10] <_MMA_> From what I know it will stay as is.
[19:58] <pwnguin> MadsRH: i understand you wrote some prototype new bootsplashes
[20:50] <MadsRH> ﻿pwnguin -> sorry , I was just out :-D Yes, but that was a long time ago.

[21:39] <alex-weej_> before anyone else grills me for spam, sorry. "/amsg" works for all networks at once in X-Chat, CAUTION!
[21:41] <_MMA_> So you message all the channels you're in at once huh? :) (kinda the definition of spam)
