=== jamalta-afk is now known as jamalta [14:45] Is the new theme going to be opened up to the public? [14:48] eventually [14:48] they wont tell us when [14:49] oh [14:50] will this still be for Drupal 5 or are they moving up to Drupal 6 or 7? [14:52] I'm just curious because I know for me to keep the ubuntu-drupal project going whether I get teh source or not, I'll have to tear it apart so I can chunk it into little modules and everything. For Drupal 6; I think I'm pretty much done developing new stuff, I've been gearing up for the change to D7 [15:02] I couldn't tell you.. I don't get any answers.. lol [15:02] newz2000: you around yet? [15:03] cjohnston: kind of [15:03] Can you answer MTecknology's questions? [15:04] hey MTecknology: You're going to get some kind of help but I don't think the plan is to have dozen's of ubuntu.com clone sites. This is still in discussion [15:05] If nothing else we'll push to have a community theme building project here in the web-team [15:06] newz2000: My goal of it is for loco sites, I already do that for the current theme. http://ubuntu-il.com/site/ [15:07] Yeah, that would be an example of a "clone site" that I don't think we want to encourage. Instead, [15:07] what is better is to have a theme that shows a relationship without being a duplicate [15:07] So that the sites feel unified and connected w/out leading people to think they're still on the same site [15:08] oh, i didn't realized I made it mimic that closely :P [15:09] I know it's exciting to see the chagnes - think about it but hold tight [15:10] I'm only thinking now, I've been getting a lot of questions about it already [15:13] I've got about three emails drafted to the web team to help answer questions and provide guidance for upcoming projects [15:13] but there's so much happening that every time I draft it gets out-dated [15:13] newz2000: so if we make a new theme that's kind of close to what you guys come up with but very noticably different, not just enough for legal distinction, that's ok? [15:14] or still not what you're thinking? [15:14] I im talks with the project manager in antoher IRC channel to hopefully have some more details ironed out [15:14] MTecknology: yeah, I think that's ideal [15:16] alejandraobregon has put some great thought and effort into the current design so we should get a little more details about that public so that we can apply the best parts of her work (as they pertain to community sites) to the new themes [15:17] She's really thinking deeply about navigation and I think this will be key to get right in the new theme [15:17] (as you remember, it was a major shortcoming of the existing theme) [15:18] ok; When you guys roll out the new theme I'll have to rip it apart anyway I'm sure. I make sure it works for RTL languages and varying widths like 80% or 900px. I'll keep thinking about ways to offer a distinction. [15:21] MTecknology: another good thing to think about is how the different kinds of information that are shown on community sites [15:22] and how that differs from ubuntu.com. [15:22] ubuntu.com, even though it's a free product, is really about selling Ubuntu [15:22] and community sites kind of have a different purpose [15:23] good point; I'll try to talk to some people about how they would like to see content moved around [15:26] that would be a very useful place to start [15:26] Also, your rtl stuff will be helpful too. We don't have a lot of in-house rtl users [16:25] uh oh.. newz2000 is on skype.. i might have to figure out what he looks like :-P [16:39] cjohnston: I know what doctormo and pleia2 look like - that's it [16:40] oh - I think I saw sabdfl once upon a time too.. [16:41] MTecknology: ill show you my picture [16:41] althought it may scare you [16:42] :P [16:42] ok [17:01] wow, that's a short hostmask [17:01] lol [17:02] MTecknology: you on facebook? [17:02] ya [17:02] @canonical/mpt vs. @kalliki/admin/pdpc.supporter.mtecknology [17:02] http://www.facebook.com/FFEMTcJ [17:03] where's the scary? [17:03] MTecknology, I used to be canonical/launchpad/mpt, then I left the Launchpad team, so I asked to be canonical/ubuntu/mpt, but apparently canonical/ubuntu doesn't exist, so... [17:03] oh [17:57] MTecknology: seeing my picture [18:56] cjohnston: 11:03 < MTecknology> where's the scary? <- I was referring to the pic [18:57] me === jamalta is now known as jamalta-afk === jamalta-afk is now known as jamalta [20:28] newz2000: you still around? [20:28] Si! [20:29] You don't by chance have, or can get the svgs for the new logos can you? [20:29] Need it for a logo we are going to make [21:12] cjohnston: rather unlikely, as the whole artwork community is waiting for those === jamalta is now known as jamalta-afk
