[00:38] <nigelb> akgraner, thank you (was asleep, just waking up :) )
[00:44] <nhandler> akgraner: I got around to listening to you on FLOSS Weekly. It was an interesting episode
[00:45] <akgraner> nhandler, thanks - well interesting means so many things :-)  I hope that is a good interesting
[00:50] <nhandler> akgraner: Yep. It was a nice episode. I got a different sort of perspective about the women in the community. I'm still jealous that I don't qualify for any of these great prize packs you all are giving out ;)
[00:51] <akgraner> nhandler, ;-P
[08:29] <dholbach> good morning
[23:02] <Pendulum> hypa7ia, maco: ping?
[23:05] <hypa7ia> Pendulum: sup!
[23:05] <Pendulum> you were interested in the AAC project, right?
[23:06] <Pendulum> I'm asking for kinda 2 reasons
[23:06] <hypa7ia> remind me what it is?
[23:06] <Pendulum> (that got discussed at my membership meeting)
[23:06]  * hypa7ia has a brain like a sieve these days
[23:06] <hypa7ia> oh right!
[23:06] <hypa7ia> yes yes yes
[23:07] <Pendulum> 1) we're getting closer to a point where we'll be looking for more people and I wanted to check to see who was still interested
[23:07] <hypa7ia> meeeeee
[23:08] <Pendulum> and 2) I think I just volunteered to help resurrect the accessibility team and I wasn't sure if your interest was AAC specific, or general accessibility specific
[23:10] <hypa7ia> i'm interested in accessibility in general
[23:12] <Pendulum> cool
[23:13] <Pendulum> I may poke you for stuff on that at some point
[23:13] <Pendulum> I'm in a weird position where I was trying not to be interested in ubuntu accessibility (just because I *have to* be interested in accessibility everywhere else in my life) and then I started having too many fine motor problems so it became a priority
[23:14] <Pendulum> and I discovered that the team mostly didn't exist anymore and hadn't really done much in years
[23:14] <Pendulum> which I think needs to be fixed
[23:14] <Pendulum> so I'm going to do something about it
[23:22] <hypa7ia> Pendulum: i'm happy to help where i can.  while it sucks that it has to be you taking it on, i'm glad you're feeling up to it :)
[23:23] <Pendulum> hypa7ia: nothing gets me energy like feeling like I can fix some marginalization ;)
[23:23] <Pendulum> or at least make things slightly easier for the next person
[23:24] <Pendulum> not to mention that as far as I can tell all the wiki.ubuntu.com documentation for accessibility stuff is for 6.06 or earlier. which really should be fixed
[23:25] <hypa7ia> wow, yeah
[23:26] <Pendulum> I suspect it's a matter of that's where people have their stable set-ups
[23:26] <Pendulum> especially as from mailing list stuff it sounds like gnome is removing some of the stuff that makes orca work so accessibility may be very broken for lucid or lucid+1 for people with visual impairments
[23:28] <hypa7ia> oh no :(
[23:28] <hypa7ia> sucks that it's happening at lucid
[23:29] <Pendulum> I know :(
[23:29] <hypa7ia> which is also an LTS release
[23:29] <Pendulum> yeah
[23:35] <IdleOne> can someone remind me the ubuntu translations team #?
[23:36] <IdleOne> Good evening btw :-)
[23:37] <Pendulum> #ubuntu-translators
[23:37] <Pendulum> hi IdleOne
[23:37] <IdleOne> thank you Pendulum :-)
[23:37] <IdleOne> and hello
[23:52] <IdleOne> Pendulum: have you done much translation and would you suggest I translate an entire page of a wiki and then post or do a little at a time and have the page live?
[23:53] <IdleOne> right now I am not sure how I should procede :/
[23:53] <IdleOne> having the page live makes it ugly if not completely done
[23:54] <IdleOne> but if I say work on one page how do I let other people know that I am working on it to avoid doubling of efforts
[23:55]  * IdleOne took a big bite and now is trying to figure out how to chew and not spit it out :)
[23:57] <IdleOne> I guess I could put a place holder on the wiki page with info that it is being worked on by me and ask other users to do the same
[23:57] <Pendulum> Pendulum: I have done no translation work. I'm only fluent in English and as the only other language I know is French and there are many more much better French speakers than I, I'd rather just let them do it than need them to fix my mistakes ;)
[23:57] <Pendulum> err
[23:57] <Pendulum> IdleOne: ^^
[23:57] <IdleOne> Pendulum: well I was asking more about what you thought the best way to procede would be.
[23:58] <Pendulum> is this on the UW wiki?
[23:58] <IdleOne> but yeah if you feel like jumping in and doing some translation of the UW-wiki.org that would be great :)
[23:59] <IdleOne> yes
[23:59] <IdleOne> err wiki-UW.org
[23:59] <IdleOne> but yes
[23:59] <Pendulum> do you care if other people work on the same page as long as there's no overlap in actual translation?
[23:59]  * IdleOne failed at simplifying the wiki link :/
