[03:06] <thewrath> crap
[03:06] <thewrath> disregard please
[03:06] <thewrath> the web form you guys need is that a general one?
[03:07] <boredandblogging> web form?
[03:07] <nhandler> And thewrath, you should consider creating a new key and getting this one revoked. You wouldn't want someone to revoke it without you knowing
[03:07] <thewrath> nhandler: all ready revoke
[03:09] <thewrath> ?
[03:09] <thewrath> nvm the ?
[03:09] <thewrath> i was not scrolled down
[03:10] <thewrath> boredandblogging: looking for the link
[03:10] <thewrath> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fridge under tasks...
[03:10] <thewrath> the first item
[03:12] <boredandblogging> let me look
[03:12] <nhandler> boredandblogging: I'll defer to you. I'm not sure how up-to-date that list is, especially with the planned fridge redesign.
[03:13] <boredandblogging> thewrath: yeah, something like that would be nice
[03:14] <thewrath> ok
[03:14] <thewrath> what details would need to be on it
[03:14] <boredandblogging> while at the same time not being completely full of spam
[03:14] <thewrath> teh only spam i may put is in recaptcha
[03:14] <boredandblogging> something like Subject, Link, Quick Summary, and email address
[03:16] <thewrath> they would have to be logged in right?
[03:16] <boredandblogging> no
[03:16] <boredandblogging> but
[03:16] <thewrath> so captcha okay?
[03:16] <boredandblogging> that may be something we need to add later
[03:16] <thewrath> ok so i can add captcha so "spam" gets added
[03:17] <nhandler> You could use OpenID to eliminate the need for the captcha and email address
[03:17] <boredandblogging> thewrath: are you thinking about doing this in php?
[03:17] <thewrath> yes i
[03:18] <boredandblogging> think the first version can be just captcha
[03:18] <thewrath> k
[03:18] <boredandblogging> but openid/LP integration would be the next step
[03:18] <thewrath> true
[03:19] <thewrath> i do not know how to do that i think ic an talk to paultag who is part of bt about that
[03:19] <nhandler> boredandblogging: What would be the use case for something like this?
[03:19] <thewrath> nhandler: has he made his bug tracker use that?
[03:19] <nhandler> thewrath: I don't know. But OpenID is pretty well documented. It shouldn't be too hard to get it working
[03:21] <boredandblogging> nhandler: sorry, use case for what?
[03:22] <nhandler> boredandblogging: A form to submit news stories for the fridge. Since the form requires an email address, wouldn't it be just as easy to send an email to the list?
[03:22] <boredandblogging> sending an email to the list requires subscribing to the list
[03:22] <boredandblogging> someone might have a drive by idea
[03:23] <boredandblogging> or a link they just saw
[03:23] <nhandler> I thought non-subscribed users just had to wait for their message to go through the moderation queue
[03:23] <boredandblogging> they can
[03:23] <boredandblogging> its just an alternate way of submitting news
[03:24] <boredandblogging> the web form is just an alternate way
[03:24] <nhandler> But what would it accomplish? Unless the form changed the From field on the email before sending it to the list, it would still need to be moderated if the user was not subscribed.
[03:25] <boredandblogging> yes, but the sender doesn't get a message saying their message is waiting for approval and all that
[03:26] <nhandler> Why wouldn't they? The email would be listed as coming from them, so they would get the email.
[03:27] <thewrath> so i can do it in php with recaptcha... boredandblogging who should i send it to?
[03:27] <thewrath> i will zip it, encrypt and sign it
[03:27] <boredandblogging> actually, I was thinking the email would be if we wanted to credit someone with the story
[03:27] <boredandblogging> or need more info
[03:28] <nhandler> So the form would send the idea to the list using its own email address?
[03:29] <boredandblogging> yeah, we would need to probably send it using an email address that the list would let through automatically
[03:29] <boredandblogging> with maybe a subject like "Fridge Submission: foo bar baz"
[03:30] <thewrath> boredandblogging: who should i send my files to? what is the mailing list e-mail address?
[03:30] <thewrath> i will need to know that to tet it
[03:31] <boredandblogging> thewrath: can you check it in to LP?
[03:31] <boredandblogging> thewrath: ubuntu-news-team@lists.ubuntu.com
[03:35] <thewrath> sorry i am sucky dsl atm and have oen machien on my network doing udates
