[02:52] Welcome back doctormo [02:52] Thanks BiosElement [02:53] any news? [02:53] Well docbook seems to be the way to go though the syntax is overly complex + it doesn't have an awesome built in ajax powered search >.> [03:01] Be nice if we could get a final decision though. I still feel docbook is several times harder to edit but if we're looking at designing a GUI it'd be easier to work with. [03:14] BiosElement: Sometimes I wish I could just design the apps and have somone else program them ;-) [03:15] haha, I never said we would. but if we have any intention of doing so docbook might be somewhat easier. Then again sphinx is in python so really it's a tossup. [03:20] Well there is the project stuff to do first, not only for UCLP but also because it'd be useful to the wider community too. [03:21] doctormo, Not sure I'm following you. Project stuff? [04:25] doctormo, This is the same bit of the System Admin's Course that I converted to Sphinx only it's in DocBook. http://pastebin.com/d7bea2e39 [04:25] It took me about 18 minutes to do that. [05:24] doctormo, Let me know when you're back and have a sec [06:38] Well, I think we have consensus. DocBook or at the very least an XML based format is best. I've just asked three non-techy people what they thought was easier to read and all three said the DocBook format. [09:23] BiosElement: back for a second === travis_ is now known as Raidsong_ === Raidsong_ is now known as Raidsong [20:20] doctormo, Are you around? [20:27] oh hey, a board member should reply to dinda's email [20:27] I won't be around Monday [20:27] maybe I'll just speak for everyone [20:27] Oh great [20:27] hey BiosElement :) [20:27] Hey pleia2 [22:07] pleia2: what email/ [22:09] the direct one to all of us with subject [UCLP] Searching for Moodle course developer for Ubuntu Learning Project [22:09] she sent it to all board members, along with steve and mark who can help us with moodle :) [22:13] OK [22:13] I got that one [22:52] doctormo: and another person emailed me today offering Moodle help [23:06] dinda, have you found some Moodle people?

[23:19] and today this guy emailed me as well: http://k12opensourcehelp.com/about-me [23:20] dinda, at some point I'd like to get involved with training, so I may ping you some time down the road [23:20] jfluhmann: that would be great [23:20] jfluhmann: do by any chance know Ken Trask from the TCEA Moodle project? [23:21] yep, Ken Task is a member of our Strategic Open Source SIG under TCEA (I'm the current President) [23:21] jfluhmann: really! you're the Pres? I'm so out of date [23:22] jfluhmann: do you guys have any regular meetings or events? or just TCEA convention? [23:22] dinda, I'm the Pres of the SOS-SIG (however, I haven't been involved with the TCEA Moodle project yet) [23:23] dinda, we have quarterly meetings, one of which is at the TCEA convention [23:24] jfluhmann: great - I'm trying to get back involved in all things TCEA [23:25] dinda, great! Are you going to the convention in Feb? [23:25] the meeting at the convention is when we do the officer change-over [23:26] jfluhmann: not sure yet as my technically my job/work is in training and not education. . .for the moment anyways [23:27] dinda, ah, I see [23:27] well, I'm out for the day, but I'll catch back up with you later, dinda [23:27] jfluhmann:ok, thanks
