| melat0nin | hi guys, are you still working on the Introduction pages for Intrepid? | 13:18 |
|---|---|---|
| melat0nin | I remember seeing some discussion regarding a presentation of new features etc | 13:18 |
| qense | hello | 15:17 |
| qense | nand: great you already started with Ubuntu Wanted. I'm sorry that I've looked so away lately. I was at my father's house last weekend and the last week I've had to give most of my attention to another project that I had to finish this weekend. I did some work on creating a PHP class for the Launchpad API, but maybe it's better to postpone that until we've got something more. | 15:19 |
| nand | qense: hi! Yeah, in my opinion, it's better to have something working pretty fast, even minimal. That way, hopefully that will attract attention to the project, and more contributors will come :) | 15:20 |
| qense | You're right. | 15:21 |
| qense | Currently I'm finishing the first stage of the other project. It still needs some attention, but I'm going to spend more attention on Ubuntu Wanted. | 15:21 |
| nand | cool! | 15:21 |
| qense | You really make the project go faster. I think that's because you're more experienced with this. ;) | 15:22 |
| qense | Anyway, I think it would be a good idea to place your list of to-be-done items at the wiki with the assignees | 15:22 |
| qense | That way people can see what things need to be done. | 15:22 |
| nand | Indeed. And a IRC meeting could be a good idea | 15:23 |
| qense | yeah | 15:23 |
| nand | the main goal now is to push people to contribute, to work on the project. | 15:24 |
| qense | The problem with a maillist is that it's quite slow. | 15:24 |
| nand | could you schedule a few proposed times next week on the ML? | 15:25 |
| qense | I can do that. | 15:25 |
| qense | Are there times you certainly can't come? | 15:25 |
| nand | uh, for next week. | 15:25 |
| qense | You're the top contributor currently, so you really should be there. ;) | 15:25 |
| nand | I'm available all week. That's the advantage of working at home :) | 15:25 |
| nand | yeah, but Brainstorm is taking quite a lot of time already, so don't expect too much of me later. I did this mainly to propel the project! | 15:26 |
| nand | Maybe we should propose a meeting next monday or tuesday | 15:27 |
| nand | that will give time for people to answer | 15:27 |
| nand | and give their preferences | 15:27 |
| qense | yeah | 15:27 |
| qense | Monday would probably be the best for me. | 15:27 |
| nand | okay | 15:28 |
| qense | I'm going to add that to the response I'm going to write to your last mail. | 15:28 |
| nand | I'd rather make a separate thread for the meeting, for better visibility | 15:29 |
| qense | Maybe that's indeed better. Not all people look at ongoing discussions. | 15:30 |
| qense | We should also make very clear that the volunteer pool won't be added soon. | 15:31 |
| nand | yep. The goal of the meeting will be to present the project, and coordinate its development | 15:34 |
| qense | I think it would be the best to just invite people interested in helping out in some way. If we're going to Brainstorm again I'm afraid we won't come much further and you already set some clear goals. | 15:36 |
| qense | We just need to know who wants to help, how things will be done and who wants to do what. | 15:36 |
| oliver_g | hey | 15:38 |
| oliver_g | is http://packages.ubuntu.com/ broken atm? | 15:38 |
| oliver_g | the packages listed on http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=myth&mode=filename&suite=hardy&arch=any cannot be found | 15:38 |
| oliver_g | (see http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/mythtv-database for example) | 15:39 |
| oliver_g | any ideas? | 15:39 |
| nand | oliver_g: Yep, I heard it was broken. Again. | 15:41 |
| oliver_g | hm ok | 15:41 |
| oliver_g | as long as this was also heard by someone who can fix it, I'm happy :-) | 15:42 |
| oliver_g | thanks | 15:42 |
| qense | nand: what's your main programming language? | 15:42 |
| nand | well, I don't really have a main one... | 15:42 |
| qense | You're an allrounder? | 15:43 |
| nand | sort of. I used PHP here because it would save a lot of time by copying a lot of the Brainstorm structure. | 15:43 |
| qense | true | 15:44 |
| qense | It's also my main language. ;) | 15:44 |
| qense | I tried some Python, but I haven't been able to spend much time on it. | 15:44 |
| nand | it's great for apps, but I never tried to use it for websites yet | 15:45 |
| qense | A bug plus of course is that launchpadlib is Python. | 15:45 |
| qense | s/bug/big | 15:45 |
| nand | A Drupal module will anyway be done sooner or later, at least for Brainstorm | 15:47 |
| qense | Maybe I even don't have to finish my LP lib. | 15:49 |
| qense | nand: Should we use #ubuntu-website or #ubuntu-meeting? | 16:04 |
| nand | let's start with #ubuntu-website. We might clash with others in #u-meeting | 16:05 |
| qense | yeah | 16:05 |
| qense | nand: do these times seem reasonable to you? I haven't got much experience with planning international meetings. | 16:23 |
| qense | Monday August the 25th, 2008 17.00 UTC | 16:23 |
| qense | TuesdayAugust the 26th 2008 18.00 UTC | 16:23 |
| nand | if it's okay with you, give also some later hours, like 19,20 or 21 UTC. | 16:25 |
| nand | that can be quite early for some people otherwise | 16:25 |
| nand | (european => still at work, going home, americans => not woken up :) ) | 16:25 |
| melat0nin | newz2000: have you considered something like this for the introduction: http://nuovext.pwsp.net/ | 19:38 |
