emmajanenewz2000, thanks :)15:21
newz2000emmajane: happy to help ;-)15:22
newz2000We have a term for it, "bike shedding," and it's one of Canonical staff's favourite past times15:22
emmajanenewz2000, I know the term. :)15:22
emmajanenewz2000, My first core patch for drupal proposed this as the front page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/emmajane/3586458575/15:24
newz2000hah!15:24
emmajanesurprisingly people couldn't decide what colour to paint it. ;)15:25
emmajanenewz2000, have you seen: http://nicksergeant.com/blog/everything-else/event-apart-boston-2009-recap ? I'm sure there are others as well but this is the first one I've bothered to read. Not sure if you've been to any of the Event Apart conferences?15:43
newz2000no, not read that nor been to one of those events15:47
* newz2000 looks15:47
emmajaneit's got some fantastic one-liner quotes.15:51
newz2000"Risk adverse companies produce crap"15:52
emmajane"Why'd you create Comic Sans? — 'beacuse sometimes it's better than Times New Roman.'"15:53
emmajanealso: "There's like 50 letters in the alphabet, or something"15:54
newz2000hah. I've said stuff like that before.15:54
newz2000presenting is hard. You forget everything when there are a hundred people staring at you. :-)15:55
emmajane:)15:56
AliTabuger7_Hey newz2000. I'm sorry to bother you again, but it seems that SpreadUbuntu still has yet to get any sort of further response at RT. I'd be more patient, but without any sort of status feedback, I feel like its been a forgotten issue.23:39
knomeAliTabuger7_, as i've been told, IS is "very busy" and we have waited on several issues over a year now.23:40
AliTabuger7_Ok. Thanks. I had no idea the kind of timeframe it would be.23:40
knomei hope you will get better response.23:41
knomeeven if our tickets are an annoyance, nothing depends on them so it's somehow acceptable it takes so long.23:42
AliTabuger7_Yeah, that is kind of a long time. I was hoping to get the domain before Karmic.23:44
knomemmh.23:45
knomei suppose that has a bit bigger priority.23:45
knomewe only want both the xubuntu domains (.org & .com) point to same place and that subdomains (whatever.xubuntu.org) would rather show our default page than an apache directory listing.23:46
knomethe funny thing is that we would have fixed this thing for hundreds of times if we only had the rights to do it.23:46
AliTabuger7_If the domain is going to your server, is there really a technical reason why you can't create subdomains?23:49
knomethe reason is that we have no administratory rights to do that.23:49
knomeIS must handle it.23:49
knomei don't know the details on where the server is etc., but this is the situation.23:50
