Flannel | huayra: I don't want to walk all the way over here... | 23:08 |
huayra | neither do I | 23:08 |
huayra | but do we have a choice? ;) | 23:08 |
Flannel | It's 11 channels over, my pinky hurts. Are we there yet? | 23:08 |
huayra | yeah | 23:09 |
huayra | for me it's only 4 | 23:10 |
huayra | Flannel, the licensing | 23:10 |
AliTabuger7 | hi | 23:11 |
huayra | hi AliTabuger7 | 23:11 |
AliTabuger7 | Do you think we got any closer to getting the domain? The canonical guy didn't seem to helpful. | 23:11 |
huayra | It was Jono | 23:11 |
dpic | lol | 23:12 |
huayra | and I have at least 5 people within Canonical/Community council nagging at him already the last 3 weeks | 23:12 |
huayra | I think he has got the message | 23:12 |
huayra | well... I hope ;) | 23:12 |
AliTabuger7 | but is he the guy we need? | 23:12 |
huayra | To be honest I don't believe Canonical is too keen on giving the domain to us as long as the site is hosted outside their site | 23:13 |
huayra | but nobody is saying it | 23:13 |
huayra | BUt I got that impression from MAtthew (ubuntu.com webmaster) | 23:13 |
huayra | He seemed to be keen, but it doesn't help... | 23:14 |
huayra | anyway | 23:14 |
AliTabuger7 | i don't care where its hosted | 23:14 |
huayra | neither do I | 23:14 |
huayra | as long as we can make changes | 23:14 |
AliTabuger7 | newz thought the drupal version was still out of date | 23:14 |
huayra | we should probably make a 0.2 announcement or something | 23:15 |
huayra | I wish we had talked more about this marketing kits and how we can produce them | 23:15 |
huayra | but we might be able to clarify that in the meeting next week | 23:16 |
huayra | we'll see... | 23:16 |
Flannel | huayra: spreadubuntu.com might be nicer than spread.ubuntu.com actually | 23:16 |
AliTabuger7 | they can do both | 23:16 |
huayra | indeed | 23:16 |
AliTabuger7 | i like spreadubuntu.org the best | 23:16 |
huayra | we are aiming at spreadubuntu.com and spreadubuntu.org | 23:16 |
AliTabuger7 | but we can have com and spread. both redirect to .org | 23:17 |
huayra | and even spread.ubuntu.com | 23:17 |
huayra | as long as we get one of them | 23:17 |
huayra | the other redirections should be trivial really | 23:17 |
huayra | Flannel, do you have faith in a Marketing Team revival as a group? | 23:19 |
huayra | I believe we could get a lot more done by implementing good marketing processes | 23:19 |
huayra | which means: making a platform for LoCos to target their market | 23:19 |
huayra | but that has to be thought out propertly | 23:20 |
Flannel | huayra: What I'd like to see is some things where we collaborate on a global scale to make materials, instead of a localish one. Artwork is one thing, *words* are another. | 23:21 |
Flannel | Having some sources of good copy (I think that's what it's called) would be nice | 23:22 |
huayra | can you please explain a bit more Flannel | 23:22 |
huayra | :) I really want to hear more about that idea | 23:22 |
Flannel | well, like for my CD sleeves, all the text on there is borrowed from the official CD sleeves | 23:23 |
Flannel | the rev2 that's in the works isn't quite so much, and really, some of the wording is what's holding it up at 95% finished right now | 23:23 |
Flannel | We can do artwork as a community well, and we have been. But having a large repository of just text that I can copy/paste for flyers or brochures, or whatever, would make the creation of that stuff easier | 23:24 |
Flannel | "I need a paragraph that covers X and Y" "oh, here's one, hmm, a little too long, lets cut out that sentence" | 23:24 |
Flannel | instead of "what do we want to say about X and Y?" "alright, lets now revise it a few times" | 23:25 |
huayra | That's the way I use to work with my marketing colleagues | 23:26 |
Flannel | That's one of the 'major' problems I've had when creating these things. (It's not a super big problem, but its what takes up most of the time) | 23:26 |
huayra | what would such an activity be called? Text editos? | 23:27 |
huayra | *editors | 23:27 |
Flannel | We usually fire up gobby and start by coming up with what topics we want to cover, and then writing sentences and combining them and culling bad stuff, etc. | 23:27 |
Flannel | This could all happen under SU too, instead of svgs and pngs and stuff, we just upload text documents, etc | 23:28 |
huayra | see... You have a workflow that works. We need to document that and make that info available to other LoCos | 23:28 |
huayra | or AMrketing contacts interested in helping out | 23:28 |
Flannel | If we get into the tagging stuff with drupal, it'd be a lot easier to categorize and expand into new things like this | 23:28 |
huayra | yeah, that could be an idea | 23:28 |
Flannel | Yeah, it's something we can limp by doing, but i'm sure marketing people can churn it out much faster than we can | 23:28 |
huayra | AliTabuger7, any thoughts on how we could implement that? | 23:28 |
Flannel | just like I can design electronics faster than they can. | 23:28 |
huayra | certainly... I had a colleague which would always magically turn what I wrote into something really eatable marketing-wise | 23:29 |
Flannel | From what we said before (mind you, I don't do drupal), moving to a tagged set of content sounded doable, instead of strictly defined categories with an "other" category | 23:29 |
Flannel | Those same paragraphs/tidbits could easily be turned into presentations and other stuff too. | 23:30 |
Flannel | but moving into a more "freeform" site would probably allow this stuff to happen much easier (certainly without administrator interaction), so *we* don't have to think about every possible way it can be used. It'll be used however the users can find ways to use it. | 23:31 |
huayra | Flannel, that is true. And we could present SU in a more Web 2.0ish fashion with a cloud of tags in the side or something | 23:32 |
huayra | people love that | 23:32 |
Flannel | Makes it easier for the admin people and the users | 23:32 |
Flannel | huayra: I'm allergic to two point oh, but yes. | 23:32 |
huayra | the Pyhton thingy you once propossed? | 23:32 |
huayra | or a wiki ? | 23:32 |
Flannel | No, the tag based thing | 23:32 |
huayra | Flannel, is just a way of talking.. It's hype. you know... | 23:32 |
huayra | Oh | 23:32 |
Flannel | huayra: I'm allergic to hype :) | 23:33 |
huayra | I am too, but at work I am all in for hype (I work with Marketing&Sales) | 23:33 |
huayra | ;) | 23:33 |
Flannel | That python thing would've been a way to sync with a bazaar branch, | 23:33 |
* huayra adapts to *any* situation | 23:33 | |
huayra | yeah | 23:33 |
Flannel | I'm not sure it'd be worthwhile | 23:33 |
huayra | but it seems that SU solved that | 23:34 |
huayra | as it is | 23:34 |
Flannel | Yeah | 23:34 |
huayra | we have some revisioning which seems sufficient now | 23:34 |
huayra | dpic, regarding the language detection: Do you think that it would be a good idea to get that information from LaunchPad instead of using the browser settings? | 23:35 |
huayra | it would certainly make it all feel more cloudish (My language preferences anywhere as long as you use the LP OpenID, which SU does use by default) | 23:35 |
huayra | Flannel, could you please elaborate that Tag idea in our idea pool? | 23:36 |
huayra | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Projects/SpreadUbuntu/IdeaPool | 23:36 |
huayra | I can do it if you are not keen | 23:36 |
dpic | huayra: yeah, perhaps falling back on the browser setting | 23:37 |
huayra | AliTabuger7, have you checked what options the Ubuntu-Drupal Launchpad module gives regarding getting data from LP? | 23:37 |
Flannel | huayra: Erm... I don't mind doing it, but I'm not sure where I'd put it. | 23:38 |
huayra | the wiki :) | 23:40 |
huayra | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Projects/SpreadUbuntu/IdeaPool | 23:40 |
huayra | just make a new idea | 23:40 |
huayra | you can use the idea Teamplate or just put up the idea there | 23:40 |
huayra | Flannel :) | 23:41 |
