[02:29] <nigel_nb> :)
[02:30] <nigel_nb> doctormo: how long will you be here?
[02:30] <doctormo> nigel_nb: maybe 3 hours, maybe 6 hours. Depends if sleep takes me
[02:31] <doctormo> But most certainly 2 more.
[02:31] <nigel_nb> i'm closing IRC now.. I'll pop in after 2 hours.. too distracting
[02:32] <doctormo> nigel_nb: aye aye
[02:32] <nigel_nb> doctormo: catch you in 2 hours sharp
[02:32] <doctormo> nigel_nb: your in a lot channels too :-)
[02:33] <doctormo> RanDom33: Hey there!
[02:33] <cprofitt> doctormo, do you use irssi?
[02:34] <RanDom33> doctormo, hai?>
[02:34] <cprofitt_> hey RanDom33
[02:34] <RanDom33> cprofitt_ hello there
[02:36] <cprofitt_> trying to learn irssi... and struglling to learn how to make my own theme or change the default theme
[02:37] <cprofitt_> hey doctormo_ ... know irssi?
[02:37] <doctormo_> cprofitt_: no, what is it?
[02:37] <cprofitt_> irc cli client
[02:37] <doctormo_> ah ok, I use konversation
[02:40] <cprofitt> kde fan, heh?
[02:44] <doctormo_> cprofitt: Nope, can't get rid of KDE cds at all and haven't used it for years.
[02:45] <cprofitt_> konversation is KDE default though...
[02:46] <doctormo_> cprofitt_: Perhaps, but it's my gnome default.
[02:48] <cprofitt_> doctormo_: you have to install it though right?
[02:48] <doctormo_> yes
[02:54] <doctormo_> cprofitt_: what are you upto tonight
[02:54] <cprofitt_> doctormo: playing with irssi, preparing more of my presentation for NYSCATE
[03:01] <pleia2> doctormo: I met cprofitt_ last night!
[03:02] <doctormo> pleia2: wonderful
[03:02] <pleia2> meeting you next week...
[03:02]  * pleia2 schemes to meet the rest, someday
[03:09] <doctormo> Should be interesting, one day we'll all meet together.
[03:09] <cprofitt_> meeting would be interesting...
[03:10] <cprofitt_> with my aversion to leaving my family it might prove difficult unless I win the lottery and can take them with me
[03:10] <doctormo> cprofitt_: Where abouts are you?
[03:11] <cprofitt_> Rochester NY
[03:11] <doctormo> cprofitt_: Not that far away then.
[03:14] <cprofitt_> doctormo: not too far...
[03:14] <cprofitt_> and I get to MA once a yaer
[03:14] <cprofitt_> I got to Stockbridge
[03:14] <cprofitt_> go to
[03:14] <cprofitt_> grr...
[03:14] <doctormo> cprofitt_: Let me know when your next here.
[03:16] <cprofitt_> pleia2: thanks... that tip for creating the default theme got me past the hump...
[03:16] <cprofitt_> now I have a functional theme
[03:19] <cprofitt_> hey talsemgeest
[03:19] <talsemgeest> Heya cprofitt_ :)
[03:20] <cprofitt_> talsemgeest: using irssi for the first time
[03:20] <pleia2> cprofitt_: hooray :)
[03:20] <talsemgeest> cprofitt_: It is definitely a great client
[03:21] <cprofitt_> it is...
[03:21] <cprofitt_> I just had pleia2 help me figure out the themese
[03:21] <cprofitt_> now I have to set my default network, channels, etc
[03:22] <talsemgeest> cprofitt_: I have started with irssi today as well
[03:22] <talsemgeest> Still on xchat right now though ;)
[03:22] <cprofitt_> talsemgeest: nice
[03:22] <cprofitt_> I have both xchat and irssi open
[03:22] <cprofitt_> but there is a nice feeling to irssi as I get used to it...
[03:22] <cprofitt_> spellling isn't corrected though :-)
[03:59] <nigel_nb> doctormo: ping
[03:59] <doctormo> nigel_nb: pong
[03:59] <nigel_nb> i'm stuck at introduction to launchpad
[04:00] <nigel_nb> I've got 2 lines..."Launchpad is an open source suite of tools that help people and teams to work together on software projects. All our asciidoc lessons are hosted on Launchpad to allow everyone on the team to pull and make changes and also convert them to other formats."
[04:00] <nigel_nb> any suggestions as to what more?
[04:07] <doctormo> nigel_nb: Launchpad is a project management site, it's free and open source software and allows free culture projects to be honsted there using the bazaar content version system.
[04:07] <doctormo> nigel_nb: This includes not only code projects such as ubuntu it's self, but also creative projects like these learning materials.
[04:08] <cprofitt> hey doctormo -- I need some help with thinking something through
[04:09] <nigel_nb> doctormo: thats enough? :)
[04:09] <doctormo> cprofitt: Thinking, hey I'm good at that!
[04:09] <doctormo> nigel_nb: It's up to you, are we missing anything?
[04:09] <nigel_nb> doctormo: nopes, but I am wondering if 2 lines are okay for a section...
[04:10] <cprofitt> well... I am looknig at http://www.ancestry.com/ and http://www.findagrave.com/ and wondering why someone has not made this an open project... like wikipedia
[04:10] <nigel_nb> doctormo: btw
[04:10] <doctormo> nigel_nb: Sure, but what is the section trying to teach? is it just a brief wikipedia style description of launchpad, or do you want to go into some details?
[04:10] <nigel_nb> u missed some stuff on your blog post
[04:10] <nigel_nb> its just an intro
[04:10] <nigel_nb> details come next class
[04:11] <cprofitt> what do you think doctormo ?
[04:11] <doctormo> nigel_nb: Sounds reasonable then.
[04:11] <doctormo> cprofitt: It's an interesting project idea, let me think some more.
[04:11] <nigel_nb> doctormo: u missed "bzr launchpad-login $lpusername" and brz whoami "<Name> <emailid>"
[04:12] <cprofitt> I just look at ancestry using 'public' records and charging people $160/yr
[04:12] <doctormo> nigel_nb: I did, but I did that delibratly.
[04:12] <nigel_nb> doctormo: not needed?
[04:12] <cprofitt> and findagrave allows for only one person to control the information
[04:12] <doctormo> cprofitt: Aye, public records should be free and open, possibly even tired to open street maps so you can tie in references to locations.
[04:13] <doctormo> cprofitt: But that sort of thing would need the dedication of a 5 man team about 2 years to get stable and some basis to get people on board I think.
[04:13] <cprofitt> doctormo: yeah they key is how to get people to contribute to such a project... and how it would be financed so it could afford servers/bandwidth
[04:13] <cprofitt> it just irks me to see people contribute and have a company profit from free labor
[04:14] <doctormo> cprofitt: If it's popular enough, some google adwords might work. If it's educational enough then people like biblio might run it, if it's governmental enough, the government might offer a grant.
[04:19] <nigel_nb> doctormo: so that step is unnecessary?
[04:19] <doctormo> nigel_nb: Aye?
[04:19] <nigel_nb> doctormo: I did follow it... so what do I do now?
[04:20] <doctormo> nigel_nb: Basic introduction is good, go with it.
[04:20] <nigel_nb> doctormo: updated launchpad with work so far
[04:21] <doctormo> nigel_nb: wonderful.
[04:24] <doctormo> nigel_nb: what Rev?
[04:24] <nigel_nb> doctormo: 10 I think
[04:26] <doctormo> hmm it won't pull
[04:26] <nigel_nb> which branch are you trying to pull nigelbabu/ubuntu-learning-materials/nigelbabu?
[04:26] <nigel_nb> lp:~nigelbabu/ubuntu-learning-materials/bazaar-introduction
[04:27] <nigel_nb> I renamed the branch the other day
[04:30] <nigel_nb> doctormo: a user has to sign CoC to upload to launchpad?
[04:30] <doctormo> ah
[04:30] <doctormo> nigel_nb: do they?
[04:30] <nigel_nb> doctormo: I have no clue... :P
[04:32] <doctormo> nigel_nb: I don't think so.
[04:33] <nigel_nb> doctormo: ok :)
[04:37] <nigel_nb> doctormo: I'm stopping writing for the day...
[04:37] <nigel_nb> doctormo: my minds gone blank..I think I should be done with it tomorrow
[04:37] <doctormo> nigel_nb: wonderful, I'm looking at your five sections
[04:37] <nigel_nb> doctormo: let me know if I've made any grave mistakes
[04:38] <doctormo> nigel_nb: I'll let you know if i find any errors, but I'll test my script to see if it makes a pdf
[04:39] <nigel_nb> doctormo: oh okay :)
[05:12] <doctormo> off to bed time
[05:13] <nigel_nb> night doctormo
[05:13] <nigel_nb> even i'm off to bed
[05:32] <Vantrax> nigel_nb, no need to sign CoC to upload to LP, its used by non Ubuntu groups too
[05:32] <nigel_nb> Vantrax: ok thanks, I didn't include it :0
