sakethis it ok if i assign a bug to myself and it has already been assigned to my mentor?00:25
mdkeDougieRichardson: ok, any progress?00:30
DougieRichardsonmdke: Yes I think we're all moving in the right direction, I get the impression that other groups, such as MOTU have expressed similar concerns00:31
mdkeok00:32
DougieRichardsonI spoke about the page we discussed earlier00:32
DougieRichardsonWhat they would like is to have materials suited to learning available and have us produce material to train our new members'00:33
DougieRichardsonI don't feel there's a conflict here having spoken to them, certainly not intentionally.00:34
mdkewe need to make a distinction between what they have planned for users, and what they have planned for new contributors00:34
mdkemy concern is mainly about users, because I'm worried that having more than one website for users to learn about Ubuntu is counterproductive00:34
DougieRichardsonOK, can you eleborate on what you see being an issue when it comes to what they have planned for users?00:34
mdkeit's an extra place to search, and confusing in terms of where they should be looking for information00:35
mdkeif there is a better way to teach users, I'd much rather try and explore what we should be doing better on help.ubuntu.com00:35
mdkebecause our documentation really is about teaching users00:36
mdkein terms of contributors, a similar issue arises - we already have problems with giving clear information, so I personally would like to see us working on ensuring that the wiki pages are top notch and welcoming00:37
DougieRichardsonI think its more linking to our documentation wherever possible00:37
mdkeagain, another website seems like it would introduce confusion00:37
DougieRichardsonI agree that the wiki pages are essential but I suspect that this is going to be a big project that might be the sort of thing attracting searches before us.00:37
mdkeif it's a software issue, I'd really like to have explained to me what moodle gives that the wiki can't - I'd just like to see some justification00:38
mdkegoing into these types of issues in detail will always reveal whether there is a genuine need for a project, or whether an existing project simply needs to be improved00:38
DougieRichardsonI can see your point00:39
mdkee.g., to take your last point, if we're not attracting searches, we should find out why not, and fix it00:39
DougieRichardsonThey're very much in the design phase though so we should probably invest in their meetings. There are some very good people getting involved in their project00:40
mdkeI'm trying not to make a decision for myself whether the project is really going to add value or not, because I don't feel that I'm being well informed enough about the pros and cons00:40
DougieRichardsonOK well, why don't we attend their next meeting and discuss it with them00:41
mdkegood idea00:41
mdkea spec would be kind of a good way to play concerns like these out, because then you can see what problem the project is trying to solve, and how it intends to resolve concerns like mine (and other people's)00:41
DougieRichardsonI mean, its likely I'll be involved in their project any way because the desktop training team is investing in it - dinda and sabdfl are interested00:42
DougieRichardsonI agree a spec would have been best but I think they're going to push ahead regardless - bodhi is paying for the server00:43
mdkeI think the structure of the idea is what requires thought00:43
mdkethe idea is basically that attracting introducing people to the community should be done through a specific site and a specific team00:44
mdkethat's a completely new concept for the community, I think - to date different areas have worked on attracting contributors through their team pages on the wiki00:44
mdkeI'm not totally against the idea, but I'd really like to see it better rationalised00:44
DougieRichardsonattracting contribution is only a part of what they envisage - they want to centralise all Ubuntu learning subjects00:45
mdkeyou mean re-centralise00:45
DougieRichardsonwhere are they currently centralised?00:46
mdkethat used to be the role of wiki.ubuntu.com00:46
mdkewe moved user help out of there because we thought (after a very detailed and carefully discussed spec) that it was right to separate them00:46
DougieRichardsonMoodle does offer some advantages for teaching in a distributed environment. If you want to see a good example of it then have a look at Openlearn00:47
mdkeI suppose I have a kind of instinctive reaction where I see something that hasn't gone through much community wide discussion00:47
mdkeand is steaming ahead anway00:47
DougieRichardsonhttp://openlearn.open.ac.uk/00:47
DougieRichardsonMatthew, I appreciate that and I feel that some of this has not been gone about in the correct way but the intention is good. I think the documentation team would be better served by getting involved in this initiative now where we can help shape it00:48
DougieRichardsonmdke: Can I bring txwikinger in on this00:49
txwikingerhi folks00:49
mdkesure00:50
mdkehi txwikinger00:50
txwikingerhi mdke00:50
txwikingerYou were wondering earlier what moodle can bring00:50
txwikingermoodle is bascially a virtual learning environment00:50
txwikingerIt is used by Universities, e.g. Open University uses it very successful00:51
txwikingerund more and more also by Secondary Schools and Colleges00:51
txwikingerYou allows you to bring in interactivity00:51
mdkewhat sort of interactivity?00:52
txwikingerYou can have activities where the stuff that is learned can be practiced with tasks00:52
txwikingeryou can have quizzes for self-assessment about what you have learned00:52
txwikingeryou can redo those quizzes to see if you have learned more00:52
txwikingeryou can mix in all kinds of resources00:53
mdkewhat would it bring in terms of user help?00:53
txwikingerand if you have a group learning together, you can have a lot of group activities too00:53
txwikingerthe progress what people do can be seen by tutors00:54
txwikingerso they can mentor the people learning more eficiently00:54
txwikingeryou bascially can have course instructors that help the learning00:54
mdkeright00:55
txwikingerFundamentally moodle is getting closer and closer to bring a online classroom to the students at home00:55
txwikingerlike distance learning just a lot more directly interactive00:56
txwikingerand with automatic tools for students to assess their progress themselves00:56
txwikingerthose self-assessment they can then share with the course instructors00:56
txwikingerso they can easier see where the particular student has problems00:56
txwikingerIt is not anything new00:57
txwikingerit is a new way of presenting the material that is available or can be used outside moodle too00:57
txwikingerand I platform for a"dialogue of learning"00:57
txwikingerAs a distance learnign lecturer I have experienced that most students need this interactivity and also contact with other students and a mentor or lecturer in order to learn efficiently00:59
txwikingerSorry, I didn't want to hog the conversation like that, just wanted to explain a little what opportunities moodle can bring00:59
mdkethat's fine, thanks for the detailed explanation00:59
txwikingerno problem00:59
mdkebut if moodle provides these features, what would be the point in keeping wikis around at all?01:00
txwikingera wiki is very good for collaboration01:00
mdkebut moodle seems to be as well01:00
txwikingerwell.. moodle has a wiki feature as well01:01
txwikingerbut that is really for places where you dont want to set up another wiki01:01
txwikingeror need the particular moderating01:01
txwikingermoodle is more a communication plaform that emulates learning as if you were in the same room01:01
txwikingerand gives you a structure you would have in a real school01:02
mdkeit's an advanced content management system, as you've described it01:02
mdkeright?01:02
txwikingeryes, in some way01:03
txwikingerA specialised contant management system or learning01:03
txwikingercontent01:03
mdkewhat I have trouble with is the concept of maintaining two content management systems with a similar, or overlapping, purpose01:03
mdkeor at the very least, overlapping content01:03
txwikingerI understand your concern01:04
mdkethat strikes me as being beyond the reach of most teams around01:04
mdkeso the question I automatically ask when something like this comes up01:04
mdkeis (a) can our existing tools achieve the stated purpose well enough, or (b) can the new tool achieve all our purposes?01:05
DougieRichardsonI think there is a potential for overlap but that if the teams work together this can be effectively managed and there is a benefit to us in providing an environment to support training our own students01:05
mdkeobviously there will always be a question of dgree01:05
mdkebut the extent to which those questions can be answered with a positive is to weigh up against the difficulties of maintaining two resources01:05
txwikingerI don't think that moodle would replace wikis01:06
txwikingerhowever, there is no problem to use the existing wiki as one of the resources for moodle01:06
mdkeDougieRichardson: I'm a bit more cynical than you are about what can be effectively achieved though; and I'm not that convinced that we can't support our new contributors really well by improving the wiki resources that we have01:06
txwikingerFor me, a wiki is very good for people working together on something01:07
txwikingerHowever, it is not a very good or efficient medium for people to learn01:07
txwikingermoodle is particularly build for the purpose of making it easy for people to learn something01:07
mdketxwikinger: I absolutely accept that, of course01:08
DougieRichardsonmdke: I think this is where we agree to differ - I don't think that the wiki is sufficient for a large enough number of our contributers01:08
txwikingerit allows synergy by the re-use of any resources that are available01:08
txwikingeryou don't have to redo all of that01:08
txwikingerit adds additional features that are very important for the learning progress01:09
mdketxwikinger: so how does it work can you literally automatically include sections of a wiki page, so that if you update the wiki page, the moodle site is also updated automatically?01:09
txwikingeryes01:09
bodhi_zazenmay I join this conversation as well ?01:09
txwikingeryou can put in links to anything you want to01:09
mdkebodhi_zazen: of course01:09
txwikingerhi bodhi_zazen01:09
bodhi_zazenthank you :)01:09
mdketxwikinger: but can you actually include text from a separate site01:09
bodhi_zazenhey txwikinger :)01:09
mdkeand have it update automatically if the separate site changes?01:10
bodhi_zazenfirst, if you are interested, we have a channel you are all welcome to01:10
bodhi_zazen#ubuntu-learning01:10
bodhi_zazenwe have some really nice team members there as01:10
txwikingermdke: I am not why you would want to do that01:11
bodhi_zazenSecond, as you know, this is an outbranching of the beginners team01:11
txwikingerEither you want the text not to change, then you would copy the text01:11
bodhi_zazenthe beginners team collaborates with several other teams as well, and quite successfully I might add01:11
txwikingerif you want to have all changes anyway, you would not want to copy it01:11
mdkebodhi_zazen: certainly01:12
bodhi_zazenMoodle, or similar, fills a similar, but very different need then the wiki01:12
mdkeyes, txwikinger has given a good explanation01:13
bodhi_zazenEveryone learns as his or her own way01:13
bodhi_zazenMoodle is just another format and IMO enhances the wiki content01:13
mdkeDougieRichardson: just to come back on your point a few minutes ago, I'm not saying the wiki is entirely sufficient, but that it can be improved (through initiatives like those we've seen in the MOTU team and some of which you've applied to our team already)01:14
bodhi_zazenWhat is very nice, the learning team can contribute to the wiki, and we can then use existing content to present it is a different venue if you will01:14
txwikingerWell Moodle allows a lot of didactic and paedagogic techniques that are difficult ot achieve in a wiki01:14
mdkeDougieRichardson: irc classes, playbook, walkthroughs etc01:15
bodhi_zazenIt is a tool for learning01:15
bodhi_zazenit can not replace the wiki, nor is that the goal01:15
DougieRichardsonmdke: i agree it can be improved - this initiative integrates the IRC and walkthrough elements01:15
bodhi_zazenlikewise, it fills a need that some people feel are unmet by the wiki01:15
* txwikinger agrees with that01:16
mdkebodhi_zazen: I understand (thanks to txwikinger) what value is added; but what worries me is that it will (a) require us to dedicate substantial resources to maintaining two sites; and (b) introduces potential confusion for people about which of the two sites they should be using01:16
mdkebodhi_zazen: I'm just trying to weigh up the considerations in my mind01:16
bodhi_zazenAh01:16
mdkeand another consideration of course is whether the wiki can be improved01:17
mdkewhether by content or adding features01:17
bodhi_zazenWell, yes, it will require maintance01:17
mdkegiven how seriously invested the Ubuntu community is in our wiki01:17
txwikingerI don't think anything will be taken away from the wiki01:17
bodhi_zazenbut we are neither asking or excluding the doc team to maintain moodle01:17
bodhi_zazenwe are looking to collaborate01:18
* mdke nods01:18
txwikingerindeed01:18
mdkebodhi_zazen: to be absolutely clear, I'm not taking a position against the project, at all; but I do want to see a better quality discussion around the community about it that has happened to date01:18
mdkes/that/than01:18
bodhi_zazenI find there are people with a different background then mine, education (is school)01:18
mdketo give you an example01:18
bodhi_zazenand they are very very interested in wiki01:18
mdkewe used to have online documentation on wiki.ubuntu.com01:18
* bodhi_zazen listens01:19
mdkeafter some serious thought we drew up a specification justifying why we thought it was sensible to move documentation to a separate website at help.ubuntu.com01:19
mdkewe took the spec to the CC for discussion01:19
mdke(after a lot of work on it)01:19
mdkethis was before I was on the CC01:19
mdkeit became apparent that they had concerns which we hadn't raised in the spec, and the idea was rejected01:20
bodhi_zazenOUCH01:20
mdkeit was one of the more disappointing moments in my volunteer work for Ubuntu01:20
bodhi_zazenWell, such may be the fate of this project as well01:20
mdkebut I quickly realised that the reason it was rejected was because we hadn't actually justified it properly, or addressed their concerns in the specification01:20
bodhi_zazenBut that is a "risk" I am willing to take01:21
mdkeso we went back and did that, and then got it approved01:21
bodhi_zazen+1 on that01:21
bodhi_zazenWell, we have worked very hard on that01:21
bodhi_zazenAnd we have support / approval from Canonical on this01:21
mdkethe point I want to make is that the quality of a discussion around potential problems with a project is what will ultimately make it successful, and acceptable to the community01:21
bodhi_zazenwe have been approved to use the Ubuntu trade mark01:21
txwikingerWell.. another reason for me to do this project on moodle is that I think one of the handicaps for linux to spread at the moment is the need for professional training01:22
mdkethat's fine01:22
bodhi_zazenand we have been approved to use learn.ubuntu.com (subdomain)01:22
mdkebut the wiki page at the moment doesn't really answer any of my questions01:22
mdkeI only fully understood the benefits of moodle until txwikinger took the trouble to give a very good explanation here01:22
bodhi_zazenwhat wiki page mdke :)01:22
mdkewiki/Learning01:22
txwikingercourse moduls in moode form can allow the leverage of many independent professionals to leverage training to customers01:22
bodhi_zazenah, well, part of our "problem" now01:23
mdkeand this discussion has been quite productive I think01:23
bodhi_zazenis we went the reverse direction01:23
txwikingertherefore raising the brand of ubuntu to another level01:23
mdkebut all these issues need to be explained somewhere01:23
bodhi_zazenwe approached Canonical first01:23
bodhi_zazenbuilding project second01:23
mdkeCanonical isn't Ubuntu though01:23
bodhi_zazenso we are (hopefully) starting with support, and build from there01:24
mdkethey just control the trademark :)01:24
bodhi_zazenwell, yes, but you get the idea01:24
mdkeI see what you are saying01:24
bodhi_zazento be honest, the biggest problem we have is "overwhelming interest" in the project01:25
mdkebut I don't agree with it - I'd like to see you justify the project to the whole community and address any concerns that are raised; because that's just healthy community, for me01:25
bodhi_zazenby that I mean, we have so many people interested in the project, we have not built anything yet, lol01:25
mdkeI'm pretty sure you have views on all the points that I'd raise, and can produce answers01:25
mdkethey just aren't written down01:25
bodhi_zazenmdke: well we have done exactly that01:26
bodhi_zazenThe idea was presented to all the ubuntu community members in a now infamous mass email01:26
bodhi_zazenlol01:26
mdkeI haven't seen it01:26
mdkeoh yeah01:26
mdkeI replied to that email, and didn't get a response01:26
mdkebut I think you're misunderstanding01:27
mdkethat email was a general overview01:27
bodhi_zazenWell, as I said, when we sent the email we thought, gee lets get teh idea out and see what happens01:27
mdkeI can appreciate that01:27
mdkeI see the enthusiasm01:27
bodhi_zazenWhat happened is we found large numbers of people interested, and so are proceeding01:28
DougieRichardsongetting a specification written would be a sensible step now01:28
mdkebodhi_zazen: yeah, I've understood your point. It's an error, in my view01:28
bodhi_zazenno, your concerns are very reasonable01:29
mdkeas DougieRichardson says, writing a specification to outline in detail the problem that you are trying to solve, how it will be solved, and to answer any potential concerns, would go a long way to putting this on the right footing01:29
mdkefor example, the spec I spoke about earlier is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BetterWikiDocs01:29
mdkesee how it's structured01:29
mdkeif you copy and paste what txwikinger said about moodle before you came in, you've got one sub-section sorted already01:30
bodhi_zazengood point01:30
bodhi_zazenFYI : http://paste.ubuntu.com/147415/01:30
mdkeok, that's a first step, cool01:30
mdkeyou need a detailed "Rationale" section01:31
bodhi_zazenI shall ask that that information be added / updated to our wiki page ASAP01:32
mdkeI wonder if there could be some kind of a mockup for the site structure01:32
mdkethere's nothing quite like seeing an idea in action01:32
DougieRichardsonmdke: they have a skeleton site01:33
mdkecool01:34
mdkeok, I'm going to have to duck out, it's really late now01:34
mdkethanks txwikinger and bodhi_zazen for the time01:34
mdkeDougieRichardson: surely it's past your bed time as well :)01:34
bodhi_zazenmdke: thank you01:34
txwikingermdke has been a pleasure01:34
mdkeand thank for your work generally01:35
DougieRichardsonmdke: damn straight, my eyes are on stalks01:35
* mdke nods sleepily01:35
bodhi_zazenPlease, if you have questions or would like to see such things as you have mentioned, we would be happy to oblige01:35
bodhi_zazennight :)01:35
DougieRichardsonttfn01:35
mdkebodhi_zazen: let's talk again after the specification is complete01:35
mdkebodhi_zazen: maybe it could be discussed at a CC meeting, it's a perfect subject to have a good community chat about01:36
DougieRichardsonmdke: thanks mate01:36
mdkenight all01:36

ArblegarbleHi, I'm a new Ubuntu user and I just wanted to point out something I learned the hard way. If you use a 64 char hex key for WPA2 personal, network manager will try to use it as a passphrase instead of a literal PKI05:30
ArblegarbleI couldn't find an easy way to force it to use the key literally so I ended up having to change the key on my router to a passphrase to get the connection to work05:32

pace_t_zulumdke: who is responsible for changing the name of ubuntu-doc-students to ubuntu-doc-contributors ?22:07
mdkeme22:07
nhandlermdke: Sorry for missing the meeting. I'm reading through the logs now22:09
mdkenhandler: no worries - we didn't quite get to your agenda item, however I think part of it is addressed by the Organization page that we discussed22:10
nhandlerAbout the low-hanging-fruit idea, what about talking to dholbach about setting up something like harvest for the Doc Team?22:10
mdkenhandler: i think harvest covers our bugs too, I've used it in the past22:10
nhandlermdke: It does, but if we are going to start using special tags to identify different types of bugs, we will want harvest to be able to know about those tags/bugs22:11
pace_t_zulumdke: any projection on when you can get that done?22:11
mdkenhandler: I see22:11
nhandlerTechnically, the real harvest could be updated, but I don't think our tags will really be relevant to most other packages22:11
mdkepace_t_zulu: not sure, I need to read through the page again and see what needs doing22:11
mdkepace_t_zulu: is there something particular that you need it for?22:12
pace_t_zulumdke: no, I am just excited about this... sorry to bug you about it...22:13
mdkepace_t_zulu: it's fine. I will do it asap, there are likely to be a few links to fix around the place so I want to make sure that I don't leave anything broken22:14
pace_t_zulumdke: i have been a ubuntu user and tangential contributor for a while now and i just want to be more officially involved22:14
mdkepace_t_zulu: this is a great way to get involved22:15
pace_t_zulumdke: i don't want to rush you... just like a kid on christmas w/ a new toy i guess22:15
mdke:)22:15
mdkenhandler: fair enough. let's get the tags sorted out and the tasks page updated, then we'll think about how we can take it to other levels22:15
nhandlerSure thing. Did we decide on when the next meeting is? irclogs.ubuntu.com hasn't updated yet22:17
mdkenhandler: not yet, we'll arrange it via the list22:24
