[15:13] <ryanakca> newz2000: Is the feature tour meeting this week or next?
[15:14] <newz2000> hey ryanakca
[15:14] <newz2000> I've been asking the same question. It was supposed to be this week but it's being put off for an inderterminate period of time
[15:15] <newz2000> Are you wanting to build one for kubuntu and re-use ours if possible?
[15:17] <ryanakca> Yes
[15:18] <newz2000> ryanakca: I'd suggest if this is an important feature to move forward without us
[15:18] <newz2000> do you ahve a list of requirements?
[15:18] <ryanakca> OK. Nope, at the UDS all that was decided was that "We want a feature tour"
[15:19] <newz2000> Well, here are some things to consider...
[15:19] <newz2000> the ubuntu one has too much text and too small graphics
[15:19] <ryanakca> well, "Feature tour like the Ubuntu.com one http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/904features/ " is what the spec says.
[15:19] <newz2000> don't copy that for sure
[15:19] <newz2000> you can do a lot better with less work
[15:20] <newz2000> You may want to consider nice large images and the main point you want to tell be text overlayed onto the graphic
[15:20] <newz2000> so that people can get the visual and basic info in one glance
[15:20] <newz2000> Also, one thing that may not be obvious about our feture tour is that it showcases ubuntu, not necessarily ubuntu 9.04
[15:21] <newz2000> for each new release we don't do a total revamp, since some of the things that make Ubuntu so great do not change from release to release
[15:21]  * ryanakca nods
[22:23] <newz2000> I'm setting a goal to close 10 bugs a day on ubuntu-website. Got 12 yesterday and 12 today.
[22:23] <newz2000> \o/
[22:24] <newz2000> BTW, it's been idle in here too long
[22:24] <newz2000> it's that time of the release where we start to kick things into gear. Hope y'all are ready.
[22:24] <knome> hello newz2000 :)
[22:24] <newz2000> hi knome!
[22:24]  * knome kicks an empty cola bottle in the corner
[22:24] <newz2000> July was a busy busy month for me
[22:25] <newz2000> but it's ok, I'm back
[22:25] <knome> july was definitely busy
[22:36] <knome> this week has been even more busy, though
[23:47] <SiDi> hey newz2000
[23:47] <SiDi> can i kick knome too ? :D
[23:48] <knome> meh
[23:48] <SiDi> (if you have some free time, try to fix ubuntu.com's mainpage when images / js are disabled ;) )
[23:49] <knome> "you" == ?
[23:49] <SiDi> == newz2000
[23:50] <SiDi> (i should have answered SyntaxError near '==')
[23:50] <knome> bah
[23:51] <knome> i'm hibernating ->
[23:51] <SiDi> the kernel supports hibernating knomes ? :O
[23:53] <MTeck> newz2000: so - will there be no pointer created?
