[13:19] hello [16:47] hi, vbabiy, have you had a chance yet to do the mockup? [16:49] Hey newz2000 not yet, been really busy with a project [16:49] Going for dinner guys,, [16:49] bbye [16:49] I think monday [16:49] on my day off [16:56] vbabiy: would you be offended if I wireframed the idea and posted it to the list with a request for help (like with the js and stuff)? [16:56] newz2000: not at all [16:56] ok, I think I may do that today then, we need to get moving on the feature tour and the countdown [16:58] newz2000: for the other projects? (in particular the Start Page) [16:58] I've been told to hold on the startpage [16:58] for now [16:58] I'm really serious when I expect that this will drop at the last possible moment [16:58] :-/ [17:00] I will investigate the possibility to put the actual text on a .po file and to have an automatic script that can create the final html offline/online page, but waiting a decision to proceed [17:01] getting a status update now [17:03] ok, the word is, "go ahead and work on it but just know that we need to get reviews from a few different parties." [17:03] Gerry will do some probing next week and give more status [17:04] ok newz2000, work on what of the two "possible solutions"? [17:04] (the new start page or the "automatization" of the actual one) [17:05] both of those are great areas of action [17:20] ok newz2000, I think I will work on the automatization first because I think is a quick work and can be useful to have it ready in case the new start page will not be finished or approved [17:22] Volans: good plan, thanks a lot for hlpeing out with this, its nice having some experience involved [17:23] :) [17:24] today I will send some emails out about the other two projects, next week when I'm sure of my facts we'll light up the start page again [18:19] I think this may be the most attractively laid out news site I've ever seen: http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2008/08/27/tech-quebec.html [18:19] From the font family, size and leading, to the width of the page and columns to the particularly unique-for-new-sites lack of disrupting ads or insets in the content area [18:29] * Volans have to go, see you tomorrow [20:05] newz2000: Hey you still around? [20:05] vbabiy: hey, still here [20:06] hey newz2000 have you thought about setting up http://laconi.ca/trac/ for ubuntu users? [20:08] no, I haven't thought about it. I hadn't even heard of it actually. [20:08] Is this like twitter? [20:08] newz2000: but much cooler [20:09] well, considering my opinion of twitter, that's not too hard. :-) [20:09] newz2000: http://twit.tv/floss37 listen to that [20:10] I'll check it shortly, doing a bandwidth intensive upload at the moment [20:10] newz2000: alright [20:34] vbabiy, good idea, but everyone is on twitter [20:35] i'm on so many micro-blogging sites that i can't even remember all the names [20:36] Ekushey: yeah, but I think this will change over time. I think the disturbed model is going to win. [20:36] Ekushey: whats you twitter? [20:36] vbabiy, it's Ekushey [20:37] feel free to follow me :) [20:37] Ekushey: adding you now [20:37] cool [20:38] I think having a way for Ubuntu users and developers to post. That would be awesome. [20:40] vbabiy, your idea is really cool, even i thought of a specialised micro-blogging portal for linux users and developers, but i backed off because everyone prefer using twitter to broadcast themselves [20:40] Ekushey: I think this is a good idea. [20:40] or the similar services like jaiku, identi.ca, plurk... the big names, you know [20:41] gwibber is starting to office great integration [20:41] btw, have you checked out rejaw? [20:41] it is really cool [20:41] Ekushey: but none are open. that is the thing with identi.ca [20:41] Ekushey: rejaw?? [20:42] Ekushey: this is like Pownce [20:43] vbabiy, yeah... i liked it a lot [20:44] oh and her, feel free to follow http://twitter.com/Linux too, that's my other timeline :) [20:44] *hey
