| newz2000 | hi cjohnston, I'm back. Give me a ping when you want to chat. | 14:58 |
|---|---|---|
| newz2000 | (been on holiday for a while) | 14:58 |
| cjohnston | np | 14:59 |
| cjohnston | If you have time now, I'm good.. | 14:59 |
| newz2000 | hey cjohnston | 15:00 |
| cjohnston | How was your vacation? | 15:00 |
| newz2000 | Great. Coming back from work may be tough. :-) | 15:00 |
| cjohnston | lol | 15:00 |
| newz2000 | coming back /to/ work I mean | 15:01 |
| newz2000 | cjohnston: we use a content management system so there's nothign to check out | 15:01 |
| newz2000 | unless you're talking about visual / html changes to the theme | 15:01 |
| cjohnston | I could help out with theme stuff too possible.. I was just going off the way I interpreted something on the wiki that it seemed like you checked out a local copy | 15:02 |
| newz2000 | You mentioned bugs, is there a particular bug you'd like to tackle? | 15:02 |
| cjohnston | I'm definatly interested in helping out though.. I don't know to what extent you all can let me.. | 15:02 |
| cjohnston | There are quite a few in: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-website/+bugs that I could take care of.. They are mostly simple spelling issue type errors.. or other things such as that... | 15:03 |
| newz2000 | I'd love help like that but give me a second to work out how helpful that will be... | 15:05 |
| newz2000 | you see, we're about to make a major revision to the website | 15:05 |
| cjohnston | ic | 15:05 |
| newz2000 | it won't go live until the spring | 15:05 |
| newz2000 | so maybe it would be useful | 15:05 |
| cjohnston | Fixing stuff like: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-website/+bug/502466 | 15:06 |
| ubot3` | Malone bug 502466 in ubuntu-website "Turkish Loco site link goes to wrong web page" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 15:06 |
| newz2000 | ah, yeah, that would still be relevent | 15:06 |
| cjohnston | I assume spelling issues would still exist | 15:07 |
| newz2000 | We'll be refreshing a good bit of the website's content (i.e. rewriting or replacing it) | 15:07 |
| cjohnston | ok.. cool | 15:07 |
| newz2000 | I don't know if this sounds like a complete bore to you, | 15:07 |
| cjohnston | I could also help with "proofing" the writing for the new site.. | 15:08 |
| newz2000 | but one thing that would be extremely helpful is to weed out the bugs that are still relevant, since many are obsolete... | 15:08 |
| newz2000 | Do you like to triage bugs? | 15:08 |
| cjohnston | That's what I have been doing over the past two weeks or so... | 15:08 |
| newz2000 | oh, have you? | 15:08 |
| cjohnston | yes.. | 15:08 |
| newz2000 | wow, that's awesome! | 15:08 |
| cjohnston | I have the open bugs down to under 200.. | 15:08 |
| cjohnston | I don't remember what it was.. but its lower now... | 15:09 |
| newz2000 | oh, you rock! | 15:09 |
| newz2000 | I have bug emails getting filed automatically and I haven't had the nerve to check that folder yet. :-) | 15:09 |
| cjohnston | I just figured if I could fix "easy" stuff like the bug above.. I could close them out too and not "bother" the "real" developers with them.. | 15:09 |
| cjohnston | since all that but requres is a 3 character change | 15:10 |
| cjohnston | I will continue triaging.. and if you can't give me the access to fix bugs, thats fine.. I understand.. | 15:10 |
| newz2000 | we won't have the system in place to allow content approval (going live w/ site refresh) so we've not allowed too many people to edit in the site | 15:10 |
| cjohnston | ok | 15:11 |
| newz2000 | Is there an easy way to find bugs that are simple typos? | 15:11 |
| cjohnston | Not that I know of.. I have just been going through the bugs one by one... | 15:11 |
| cjohnston | starting with the ones listed as 'new' | 15:12 |
| newz2000 | What would be cool is if there were a way to flag bugs that are just typos | 15:12 |
| newz2000 | but I don't know how to do this | 15:12 |
| * newz2000 looks at the bug queue to see what it looks like real quicki | 15:12 | |
| cjohnston | Maybe with a tag | 15:12 |
| newz2000 | oh, that looks good | 15:15 |
| newz2000 | I just added two tags, typo and broken-link | 15:15 |
| cjohnston | ok | 15:15 |
| newz2000 | I wonder if it's possible to mass-tag | 15:15 |
| newz2000 | cjohnston: I'm eager for your help on this matter and want to start using the bug tracker more | 15:17 |
| newz2000 | I can't open up access for you to edit the website at this time | 15:17 |
| newz2000 | what would you like to do that you think would be most effective and not a waste of time? | 15:17 |
| cjohnston | bug 501970 I left alone because yes, the bug is correct, but I don't think its an "ubuntu" website bug, I think it would be a bug for moblinzone.com - but I wasnt sure if maybe the page on our end had changed or something.. | 15:18 |
| ubot3` | Malone bug 501970 in ubuntu-website "intel_moblin_ubuntu_computex was not found" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/501970 | 15:18 |
| newz2000 | good call | 15:18 |
| cjohnston | newz2000: as long as someone follows up with the work I do in the bug tracker.. I don't think it would be a waste of time.. and im willing to help out with it.. | 15:19 |
| newz2000 | ok, I will make a commitment to dealing with 25 bugs per week | 15:19 |
| newz2000 | and I am online and active here in this IRC channel from 8:30 − 5:30 Central US time (it's 9:19 for me now) to answer your questions if you need help | 15:19 |
| cjohnston | ok.. I am est | 15:20 |
| newz2000 | (though I do step away now and then to eat lunch and stuff. :-)) | 15:20 |
| cjohnston | understandable | 15:20 |
| newz2000 | If you have any new bugs that are simple typos or broken links, if you use the tags, I'll deal with them first | 15:20 |
| cjohnston | so you want stuff tagged typo and broken link | 15:21 |
| cjohnston | ok.. | 15:21 |
| cjohnston | that answers my question then | 15:21 |
| newz2000 | cjohnston: where are you located? | 15:21 |
| cjohnston | orlando (fl) | 15:21 |
| newz2000 | ah, sunny, warm, Orlando | 15:22 |
| newz2000 | I lived for 10 years in the Sarasota area | 15:22 |
| newz2000 | my son is a Florida native (one of the few!) | 15:22 |
| cjohnston | bug 314692 I did need someone "smart" to look at... I don't think its offered SSL... but wasnt positive.. After the yelling I took from it.. lol | 15:22 |
| ubot3` | Malone bug 314692 in ubuntu "Brainstorm SSL problem, site not accessible (FF3)" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/314692 | 15:22 |

| cjohnston | yup | 15:22 |
| newz2000 | I'm currently in chilly (-9) Des Moines IA | 15:23 |
| cjohnston | hehehe | 15:25 |
| cjohnston | on the intel_moblin bug, do you agree that isnt our bug? | 15:27 |
| newz2000 | yes, but I think I need to report it to the right person | 15:27 |
| newz2000 | I'll deal with it, as CES is coming up and there will be a lot of visibility here | 15:27 |
| cjohnston | ok.. you want me to leave it as is for now then and you can edit it? | 15:28 |
| newz2000 | yeah | 15:30 |

| cjohnston | newz2000: fix released on bug 437651 then? | 15:44 |
| ubot3` | Malone bug 437651 in ubuntu-website "file not found 404" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/437651 | 15:44 |
| newz2000 | or mark it as a dup of 501970 | 15:45 |
| newz2000 | (which is fixed) | 15:46 |
| cjohnston | newz2000: bug #385568 seems to be fixed to me.. do you want me to mark stuff like this fix released, or what do you want? | 15:59 |
| ubot3` | Malone bug 385568 in moin "Anchor links with spaces are incorrectly encoded" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/385568 | 15:59 |
| newz2000 | cjohnston: yes, if it's fixed or obsolete, it'd be awesome to have it marked accordingly | 16:00 |
| cjohnston | Okie.. | 16:00 |
| * cjohnston can't change things to wishlist.. heh.. oh well | 16:06 | |
| cjohnston | Is the US Ubuntu Store closed newz2000? Can you confirm that? | 16:14 |
| newz2000 | cjohnston: yes, it is | 16:14 |
| cjohnston | newz2000: I had to.. hehe bug #503009 | 16:18 |
| ubot3` | Malone bug 503009 in ubuntu-website "USA Store needs to be removed from shop.ubuntu.com" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/503009 | 16:18 |
| newz2000 | ok, I'll start by fixing the banner on the side then asking for a redirect from shop.ubuntu.com to shop.canonical.com | 16:19 |
| cjohnston | ok | 16:19 |
| cjohnston | newz2000: are you responsible for kubuntu.org also? | 16:33 |
| newz2000 | cjohnston: no, not directly | 16:33 |
| newz2000 | there's a different project in launchpad for kubuntu.org | 16:33 |
| cjohnston | Ok..There doesnt seem to be a way to download the LTS on Kubuntu is why I ask.. | 16:34 |
| newz2000 | I wonder when we had an LTS version last | 16:36 |
| cjohnston | http://ubuntu-mirror.cs.colorado.edu/releases/kubuntu/ | 16:37 |
| cjohnston | there is an 8.04.2 - which isnt listed on the hashes page, which was a bug, which is why I started investigating | 16:38 |
| cjohnston | newz2000: is there a requrirement to be listed on http://www.ubuntu.com/support/local ? The reason I ask is since there is a link to the "full list of teams" I would not think every loco would be listed on that page.. There are some bugs filed against that page though since some approved teams arent listed there.. I don't want to confirm bugs if the teams for some reason dont meet a requirement. | 16:49 |
| * cjohnston is keeping you busy today.. lol | 16:49 | |
| newz2000 | hmm… this is an interesting question | 16:53 |
| newz2000 | cjohnston: if you were going to guess, how many outstanding bugs refer to this? (very rough guess is fine) | 16:54 |
| cjohnston | so far I have found 1.. but it has two different "reports" to it... bug 324223 - for reference.. technically 2 that i have found | 16:55 |
| ubot3` | Malone bug 324223 in ubuntu-website "Danish team info missing from http://www.ubuntu.com/support/local" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/324223 | 16:55 |
| newz2000 | cjohnston: yeah, I say we go ahead and make these changes to the website and think about a better way to do this down the road. | 16:56 |
| newz2000 | I'll ask jono for his opinion. | 16:56 |
| cjohnston | okie.. | 16:57 |
| cjohnston | newz2000: did you see the response to bug 314692? | 20:51 |
