=== beuno_ is now known as beuno === beuno_ is now known as beuno [19:24] hey james_w - is there any way the UWN team can help you out more with the dev news? [19:24] I realize I'm volunteering other people here :-) [19:24] hey joey [19:24] I'm not sure what the workflow is [19:25] perhaps we could pool items where they overlap [19:25] YES you are, joey. LOL [19:25] i'm here for questions james_w joey [19:25] hey tyche, johnc4510 [19:25] hey [19:25] what do you guys think? [19:25] Is there anything in your current work that would help? [19:25] i've been watching the dev mailing list [19:26] and just picked up the dev news issue #2 last wk [19:26] Hey, johnc4510. I think we ought to put joey on the UWN staff, and have him do the security and updates, and stats and upcoming meetings the OLD way. [19:26] lol [19:26] other than that, i would need to know where to look [19:26] Then, after about 3 months, show him how we do them now. LOL [19:26] or be sent items via -news-team mailing list [19:27] james_w: any ideas ?? [19:28] johnc4510: if you watch the dev mailing list then forwarding things of interest to the news-team list would be great [19:28] oh god now tyche [19:28] s/no/now [19:28] lol [19:29] james_w, my question is really just verbal exploration. I'm not suggesting anything. It just occurred to me that we have these guys who do a great job and maybe we can leverage that [19:29] I think we need two separate pubs [19:29] Isn't that the appropriate way of dealing with "supervisors" that don't know what the job really is? Hee hee [19:29] they serve different audiences [19:29] james_w: ok, i watch that every week for info, not being a dev, something of importance might slip by me [19:29] :( [19:30] joey: yeah, I'm wary of putting even more work on the UWN team, you have enough as it is :-) [19:30] joey: right [19:30] johnc4510: that's no problem, I'll still be looking, and others hopefully. [19:30] james_w: it's easy for us if it's either sent to the -news-team mailing list or in the devs mailing list archive [19:31] for an example, we were having a problem reporting hug day because they sent the email within the wk it happened [19:32] so i just asked them to send it to the news-team list on the sat. before [19:32] so, anything _you_ want in the next issue needs to be to me by saturday if possible [19:32] :) [19:32] Yea, it really hurts when we publish, then 2 days later something that we SHOULD have covered comes out. [19:32] we're more than willing to publish anything dev, or ubuntu related [19:33] Despite my kidding around, we really do want to "serve the community" by supplying the information. We just need to have it by the Saturday BEFORE it's going to happen. [20:19] joey: have you heard anything about a new countdown script for Jaunty to use on our blogs? [20:19] should be about time for one [20:19] i think [20:32] johnc4510, no news yet but I'm sure as soon as newz2000 finishes it he'll put it on the Fridge. He did that the last time [20:33] k [20:33] thx [20:37] johnc4510: newz says he is going to announce it today [20:38] boredandblogging: cool thx [20:38] :) === johnc4510 is now known as johnc4510-laptop [23:26] johnc4510-laptop, the countdown timer has arrived [23:26] if you didn't see it yet [23:26] cool, thx [23:27] my timing was _almost_ perfect LOL [23:28] not almost, it was perfect [23:30] It hasn't arrived yet. He's looking for graphics [23:30] I hope he includes a static for people like me that can't embed javascript in WordPress
