| bencrisford2 | where can i find the edubuntu developers? | 10:25 |
| bencrisford___ | hello? | 10:33 |
| bencrisford_ | noone here? | 10:34 |
| bencrisford_ | Hello? | 11:24 |
| bencrisford_ | where can I find the edubuntu developers? | 12:08 |
| bencrisford_ | stgraber: is there a channel for edubuntu developers? | 14:28 |
| highvoltage | there's #edubuntu | 14:28 |
| highvoltage | (for that) | 14:28 |
| bencrisford_ | this is #edubuntu though right? | 14:29 |
| highvoltage | oh, heh, right, I didn't look at the topic :) | 14:29 |
| bencrisford_ | lol | 14:29 |
| highvoltage | #edubuntu is for everything edubuntu | 14:29 |
| bencrisford_ | ok | 14:29 |
| bencrisford_ | well, im working on a project | 14:29 |
| bencrisford_ | a school/uni e-management system | 14:30 |
| bencrisford_ | only opensource | 14:30 |
| bencrisford_ | the founder and I are looking for developers | 14:30 |
| bencrisford_ | and this seemed like the perfect place | 14:30 |
| highvoltage | what is it called? | 14:30 |
| bencrisford_ | eskole | 14:31 |
| highvoltage | edubuntu is short on programmers at the moment (to put it mildly), but I'm sure there's many edubuntu users who would be willing to help with testing, etc | 14:31 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford_: perhaps you can also get in touch with the schooltool guys, they just hit version 1.0 recently | 14:32 |
| bencrisford_ | ok cool | 14:32 |
| bencrisford_ | also, if there is any way i can help with edubuntu let me know | 14:32 |
| highvoltage | will you be here on #edubuntu often? | 14:33 |
| bencrisford_ | sure :) | 14:33 |
| highvoltage | we can really do with help, I just need to know how to contact you | 14:33 |
| highvoltage | great! | 14:33 |
| bencrisford_ | (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moodle thats what eskole is based on) | 14:33 |
| bencrisford_ | highvoltage: how can i contribute then :)? | 14:33 |
| highvoltage | does eskole have a project site? | 14:34 |
| bencrisford_ | sure does | 14:34 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford_: well, at the moment we're trying to figure out in which direction edubuntu should go into | 14:34 |
| bencrisford_ | direction? | 14:34 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford_: many people want many different things out of edubuntu, and there's not enough resources for everything | 14:34 |
| bencrisford_ | ah i see | 14:34 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford_: at the moment edubuntu is an add-on disc for ubuntu | 14:34 |
| bencrisford_ | (http://dev.abruptus.dyndns.org/projects/eskole theres the dev tracker btw) | 14:34 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford_: many want it to be a full turn-key installation again, some feel that it should be more desktop-neutral, so that you can install it onto kde/gnome/xfce/lxde/etc easily and integrate well with those environments | 14:35 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford_: some feel that it should bring upstream edu stuff closer to edubuntu, some feel it should focus on the gaps that upstream currently leaves | 14:36 |
| bencrisford_ | how can i download edubuntu? | 14:36 |
| bencrisford_ | i read up on it because of eskole and it looks great :) | 14:36 |
| highvoltage | http://edubuntu.org/download | 14:36 |
| bencrisford_ | ok... | 14:37 |
| bencrisford_ | is all the software on it made by the development team? | 14:37 |
| highvoltage | no, it's a collection of upstream software, packages from KDE Edu, Gcompris, Tux4kids, etc | 14:38 |
| bencrisford_ | ah ok | 14:38 |
| stgraber | edubuntu as it's at the moment is an addon on top of regular Ubuntu bringing bundles of educational free softwares | 14:38 |
| stgraber | well, as highvoltage said :) | 14:38 |
| bencrisford_ | ok cool | 14:38 |
| bencrisford_ | by the way stgraber, i would be grateful if you checked this out :): http://dev.abruptus.dyndns.org/projects/eskole | 14:38 |
| stgraber | I just did | 14:39 |
| bencrisford_ | oh cool | 14:39 |
| bencrisford_ | so how can i help the development team with edubuntu? | 14:39 |
| bencrisford_ | because I guess id like to :) | 14:43 |
| bencrisford_ | stgraber? highvoltage? | 14:43 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford_: a good start would be to join the edubuntu-devel mailing list, it's also on http://lists.ubuntu.com | 14:46 |
| bencrisford_ | ok, will do | 14:47 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford_: it would be good if you introduce yourself there | 14:47 |
| bencrisford_ | ok, is there many developers? | 14:48 |
| bencrisford_ | because i noticed the launchpad team only has 2 members :P | 14:48 |
| bencrisford_ | or is that for core dev? | 14:48 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford_: hence the need for more help on edubuntu | 14:49 |
| bencrisford_ | ok | 14:50 |
| bencrisford_ | :) | 14:50 |
| bencrisford_ | hmf. Why won't brasero let me burn edubuntu | 15:01 |
| highvoltage | it should, what goes wrong? | 15:02 |
| bencrisford_ | doesnt let me press the 'burn' button | 15:06 |
| bencrisford_ | i select the file | 15:07 |
| bencrisford_ | and the disk | 15:07 |
| bencrisford_ | and burn button is greyed out | 15:07 |
| bencrisford_ | (i posted to the mailing list btw) | 15:08 |
| bencrisford_ | highvoltage; did you see my email? | 15:16 |
| highvoltage | bencrisford_: I guess I will soon, IRC'ing from my phone atm, will check a bit later | 15:17 |
| bencrisford_ | ok | 15:17 |
| bencrisford_ | stgraber: How do you think I could best contribute to edubuntu? | 15:51 |
| bencrisford_ | stgraber: :(? | 16:00 |
