ubottuFloodBot1 called the ops in #ubuntu-ops-monitor (exploit)00:10
cody-somervillePriceChild, ping00:11
PriceChildpong00:11
naliothseen it00:12
naliotham watching00:12
elky_workis this still the "paddy frank is back" fun?00:12
cody-somervillePriceChild, I've created #ubuntu-legal to reduce noise in -motu regarding licenses and other legal stuff00:12
cody-somervillePriceChild, I'd like the IRC Council to take care of it, if they would.00:12
naliothelky_work: no, just an irritant00:12
PriceChildcody-somerville: Take care of it?00:12
elky_worknalioth: aww, i was about to go get the popcorn :(00:13
cody-somervillePriceChild, You know, do your irc stuff with it :P00:13
PriceChild:s00:13
PriceChildWhich stuff?00:13
naliothelky_work: please don't summon any demons00:13
cody-somervillePriceChild, Like, keep the peace, and op it, and stuffz00:13
elky_workwe are not hire-an-op00:14
PriceChildIts not really something we usually do... How would *!*@ubuntu/member/* +voiAt do in there?00:14
naliothcody-somerville: are you a lawyer?00:15
cody-somervilleSounds good to me00:15
nalioth#ubuntu-legal is not a good idea00:15
cody-somervilleOkay00:15
cody-somervilleIs there a better name for that sort of discussion?00:15
cody-somervillePriceChild, Well, I'd still like to give the IRC Council ownership and stuff like that to manage the channel00:15
elky_workunless there'll be lawyers, #ubuntu-IANAL ;)00:15
cody-somerville<g>00:15
PriceChildHmm well it does kind of make me think of debian-legal... which is something very different despite the same naming00:16
cody-somervilleWhats debian-legal about?00:16
elky_work#ubuntu-ethics ?00:16
elky_worknah00:16
cody-somerville#ubuntu-community ?00:16
PriceChildYou're wanting a channel which holds general discussion about it... debian-legal is a group of lawyers giving advice.00:16
PriceChild(I believe)00:16
cody-somervilleOkay00:17
naliothif it's generated by #ubuntu-motu, perhaps #ubuntu-motu-discussion00:17
elky_workcody-somerville: talk to matt east about possible logical namings maybe?00:17
naliothkeeps the non-motu yakking out of -motu, but keeps it related to -motu00:17
* cody-somerville notes that there isn't a general community channel, maybe we should have one?00:18
PriceChildcody-somerville: -offtopic00:18
* PriceChild should think before speaking more often.00:18
* cody-somerville is thinking more along the lines of ontopic community discussion.00:18
cody-somervilleFor example, if I wanted to talk to mdke about this, I would have to bring him here or talk to him in private00:18
PriceChild#ubuntu-$TEAM_NAME00:19
cody-somervillePriceChild, Right but there is no channel for the CC :]00:19
cody-somervilleie. just plain old, community community discussion00:19
PriceChildthere isn't?00:19
cody-somervilleIf you know otherwise, I've been missing out :-]00:20
PriceChildi doubt they want a channel00:20
cody-somervilleRight00:21
cody-somervilleThats why I'm thinking more of a meta channel00:21
PriceChildI do like #ubuntu-ianal.00:21
elky_workPriceChild: yeah, it's not like -motu is an entirely serious name ;)00:21
cody-somervilleMy thinking is that traffic would be so low in -ianal that it might be better to amalgamate it into a channel that has a broader purpose such as a channel for discussion on community and community issues in general.00:22
PriceChildI'd also consult whoever runs -motu before telling people from there that its policy is to go to wherever. We don't run -motu afaik.00:22
cody-somervilleRight00:23
cody-somervilleLet me touch base with a few folks and I'll write something to relevant mailing lists.00:23
cody-somervilleI think it would be good to get Jono to weigh in00:23
elky_workcody-somerville: and jorge00:23
PriceChildmailing lists are going to make it so formal00:23
elky_workand bring out licencing guru wannabe00:24
elky_work                  ^^every00:24
naliothno need for a mailing list00:25
elky_worknalioth: he means, informing existing ones00:25
cody-somervilleAnyhow, I already prematurely registered #ubuntu-legal00:26
elky_workcody-somerville: it is worth keeping it and piping to -ianal00:26
* cody-somerville nods.00:26
elky_worksince -ianal makes -legal perfectly clear00:26
cody-somervilleIs it appropriate for me to add the irc council to the access list?00:26
elky_workyou could even hand out token grains of salt on each join00:27
cody-somerville\o/00:27
elky_workbut yes, add the council nick00:27
cody-somervillewhats the nick again?00:28
elky_workubuntuirccouncil iirc, you might want to check access for an existing channel though00:29
* elky_work goes back to trying to figure how to make SELinux behave in fedora00:30
cody-somerville-ChanServ- Flags +votsriRfA were set on UbuntuIrcCouncil in #ubuntu-legal.00:31
cody-somervilleoh, was kmos unbanned? I never really followed that discussion.00:31
elky_workcody-somerville: reluctantly. i'm not sure he's allowed to actually touch anything though00:32
cody-somervilleokay00:33
PriceChildHe looks muted.00:33
elky_worki think they figure if he's forced to read, he might learn something00:33
elky_workeventually00:34
cody-somervilleheh00:34
Flannelcody-somerville: -offtopic is for Ubuntu topics, yes.00:40
Flannelalthough, with the way its been the past few months, the signal to noise ratio is quite bad depending on the time of day/cliques active.00:41
Flannelit used to be a rather intelligent channel, honest!00:41
cody-somervilleI'm pretty sure -offtopic is for offtopic discussion, no?00:42
elky_workat one point, it was more intelligent than #ubuntu00:42
FlannelIndeed.00:42
Flannelcody-somerville: offtopic includes Ubuntu topics00:42
PriceChildelky_work: offtopic for #ubuntu00:42
elky_workcody-somerville: where offtopic is non-techsupport00:42
PriceChildgah00:42
Flannelcody-somerville: since #ubuntu is just for support00:42
PriceChildcody-somerville: offtopic for #ubuntu00:42
elky_workit's supposed to be 'ubuntu discussion that doesnt fit into other channel scopes'00:43
Flannelusually if you get a thread started, the randomness stops.00:43
Flannelelky_work: It was until we got a group of people who hung out in -offtopic, but were never in #ubuntu.00:45
naliothcody-somerville: #ubuntu-offtopic is for Ubunte related non support discussion00:49
elky_workdepending on who is active, it can be #ubuntu-emo, #ubuntu-psychotic, #ubuntu-i-am-bored-please-play-with-me00:56
* Flannel must be asleep during the -emo time, thankfully.00:57
FlannelOh wait, no nevermind.00:57
FlannelBut again, if you start an actual non-random topic, you'll get a good response00:57
Flanneltheir else: statement is just rnd()00:58
elky_workyeah00:58
ubottuIn #ubuntuforums, jacob said: !irs is http://instantrimshot.com04:03
* Flannel just doesn't understand the desire to have that factoid.04:08
elky_workbecause people are utter dorks sometimes04:41
* Madpilot isn't sure he wants to click on that URL... and he clicks on nearly *everything*...05:00
MadpilotOK, stupid but harmless, certainly doesn't need a factoid...05:17
elky_workMadpilot: yeah06:26
elky_worki was worried the first time too06:26
MadpilotI love slow IRC channels. 2.5hrs for one conversation :)06:27
elky_work:P06:28
elky_worki'm going to blame urbandictionary for the proliferation of stupid disgusting definitions for terms that are plausibly double entendres, even if it's not it's fault.06:29
Flannelproblem is, we already have a factoid06:34
Flannel!rimshot06:34
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about rimshot06:34
Flannel!instantrimshot06:34
ubottuBa Dun Tshh! http://instantrimshot.com/06:34
Flannelsee?  makes me sad.06:34
Flannelespecially because the factoid itself is useless... because the factoid text is as long as the factoid name06:35
Flannelmmm, please pretend those two factoids were written as if they were continuations of the same idea... instead of the same sentence twice in a row.06:38
