* Tm_T huggles Myrtti00:10
Tm_T...someone should remind me more often that there's no point trying to be serious in -ot00:24
Glahey guys, how's it going?00:25
GlaI came here a few months ago talking to you guys about how I have been working on a product for the past year or so to create scaleable, manageable real-time communities on the web00:26
Glaand you guys expressed a lot of interest in checking it out00:27
Glaso I'm back00:27
Glaalso I found https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-community/+bug/392799 which I thought was interesting00:27
ubottuLaunchpad bug 392799 in ubuntu-community "#ubuntu too noisy to be useful" [Medium,In progress]00:27
GlaI've been working on it full-time for the past year or so with 2 other developers00:27
Glaand we're ready to show what we have and really hope you guys like it00:28
Glaas we think ubuntu is the perfect place for a lot of reasons ( per our last conversation here )00:28
ubottuIdleOne called the ops in #ubuntu (decker)01:15
tsimpsonGla: Hi again :) it would probably be better if you send some details to our IRC mailing list (ubuntu-irc@lists.ubuntu.com) so we can start a discussion. (you can subscribe at https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/Ubuntu-irc )01:20
Glaalrighty01:24
jribhey, why is ubottu asking me to review a ban?  Does it happen automatically after a week for all bans now?02:00
nhandlerjrib: Yeah. You won't get nagged again though.02:02
nhandlerAn email went to the ML iirc02:02
elkyI look forward to the week after play whackamole with a skilled evader02:03
jrib"Hi, please review the ban '*!*@190.12.78.113'" from ubottu but I can't find any ban matching 190.12.78.113 on the ban tracker02:05
jribwhich strikes me as strange because I assume the feature uses the same database02:06
jribmaybe ubottu just hates me02:08
nhandlerjrib: I see 20:10:02 -!- 6 - #ubuntu: ban *!*@190.12.78.113 [by jrib!~jrib@upstream/dev/jrib, 619274 secs ago]02:10
jribnhandler: but on the ban tracker?02:11
nhandler@btlogin02:11
nhandler@login02:11
ubottuThe operation succeeded.02:11
jribalthough I suppose that means ubottu *doesn't* use the ban tracker to figure out if he needs to remind me02:11
Glatsimpson: if there a better way?02:11
Glaa mailing list seems like kinda a crazy way to talk about this02:12
jribGla: the mailing list will elicit feedback from everyone involved with irc, not just whoever is active right now :)02:13
tsimpsonGla: why do you say that?02:13
Glawell03:04
Glaalright03:04
GlaI'll give it a shot03:04
Glahere it goes03:04
MTecknologyCould somebody toss out a +q in -offtopic?03:06
Glahey guys I just sent my email to the mailining list03:32
GlaIs being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.  The reason it is being held: Post by non-member to a members-only list03:32
Glasent to ubuntu-irc@lists.ubuntu.com03:32
elkyYou were given the link to subscribe to the mailing list, so yes, that would happen if you did not follow that instruction.03:43
ubottumaco called the ops in #ubuntu (Lunix4noobs language)03:50
FlannelSuch class.03:51
tsimpsonGla: did you subscribe to the list?04:54
mneptokGla: if there's nothing else you need, we have a no-idle policy in this channel06:26
Glaah06:29
Glaokay06:29
Glasorry about that06:29
Glatsimpson: yes I did06:29
tsimpsonGla: I would like to see a response from you to the reply from idleone06:31
Glayeap, responding now06:32
ubottuardchoille called the ops in #ubuntu (several people continue ot)06:35
tsimpsonGla: when you say "IRC authentication", what exactly do you mean?06:42
tsimpsonhow exactly do you know user X and password Y are correct?06:42
Glawe authenticate them against IRC06:53
tsimpsonhow exactly?06:54
Gla./nickserver username pass06:54
jussio.O06:54
tsimpsonso you store that information on your website?06:55
Gladatabase, yes06:55
Glamd506:55
jussino thanks.06:56
tsimpsonI don't think many of us will be comfortable with that06:56
jussiI dont want to share my freenode password with you.06:56
Glait's not that different from creating an account, the only difference is that we link you up with your appropriate groups with moderation structure etc06:57
Glawell, we may be partnering with Freenode officially06:57
tsimpsonit would make more sense to send the user a memo (with memoserv) containing a key, which can be used to verify an account06:57
GlaI'll keep you abreast on that06:57
Glawell, we're mostly concerned about the chanels you moderate06:58
Glaso we can inherit the moderation structure06:58
Glawithout question06:58
Glaand you have to authenticate to do that06:58
tsimpsonyou don't need to authenticate as us to do that06:59
Glayea you do06:59
tsimpsonthe method I described will work, as a user needs to be identified to read memos06:59
Glaor unless you know another way06:59
Glabut how could we get a list?07:00
Glawe currently do ./nickserv listchans07:00
Glawhich gives you all chans that you moderate07:00
tsimpsonwhy do you need to know all the channels? why not just look at the specific ones you're interested in?07:01
Glawe're interested in all of them07:03
Glathat's what most users want07:03
Glato be hooked into everything they moderate right off the bat07:03
GlaI'm just not sure how this would work07:03
GlaI'll ruminate on this07:07
Glabut it seems like you guys would rather off a different way then lending your freenode credentials07:08
Glanoted07:08
jussiGla: think about it for us ops, or more pertinent, the GC's. giving those credentials to you is a big stretch.07:09
Glayea I suppose that could mean compromising all of IRC07:12
Glaperhaps what I can do is have you sign up and then simply do a call to IRC and get your structure07:12
Glanot storing your password07:13
Glajust doing a straight call07:13
Glaso you sign up, login, etc... and then if you ever want to link up your account you just send your u/p , but we don't store it, just make the call07:13
jussiGla: why not do it the way tsimpson said?07:14
jussiif you partner with freenode, surely they should share the access lists with you.07:14
Glaright07:15
Glayea, if that was that case that would all work just fine07:16
Glaactually07:19
GlaI could just scrape all channel credentials right now and store them07:19
Glathen use that to auth, and use the memo system tsimpson talked about07:19
Glaalright, that will work07:20
Glawill take a bit of time though07:20
Glaanyhow, I will keep you up to date with how things progress with this07:21
Glait's clear you don't like the auth system as is ( as I'm sure most don't, we just launched 24 hours ago so we're just getting feedback ), so we'll update this.07:21
elkyGla, what does Freenode think about you doing this?07:33
elky(storing their users private details, presumably without an NDA)07:34

h00koho!15:05
Tm_TI have silly bindings for 39 windows, but should do some solution to get to my current >60 ...15:06
funkyHatTm_T: I've also been wondering about settin up bindings for channels above 4015:30
funkyHatI thought of making a horrible alias which when triggered changed all of my bindings for 1-40 to 41-80, and another to switch them all back15:31
Tm_TfunkyHat: I just do second-level window switcher, that is, if I press first alt+z, then I can just press 1 to get into 2115:36
Tm_Tbut for over 40, I have to do something else15:36
funkyHatTm_T: which client lets you do alt+z and then a character?15:36
Tm_Tirssi15:36
funkyHatAh, then I can use that for my 41-80... how do I define alt+z aliases?15:37
Tm_Twith right bindings, everything is possible15:37
Tm_TfunkyHat: bind meta-z to be key morewindows, for example15:38
Tm_Tand this new key-number to be some window combination like the others are15:39
funkyHatOhh cool ⢁)15:39
* funkyHat tries this15:39
bazhangoh wait. have to add funkyHat to #ubuntu factoid to get him highlighted in -ot15:42

Tm_Tbut hey, I'm not in charge on this so... (:15:46
funkyHatThere we go. Keybindings for windows all the way up to 8015:49

MenZaI have <excl>ops hilighted.15:50
funkyHatI thought you were putting me on?15:50
bazhangfunkyHat, then you will be highlighted in #ubuntu as well15:51

ikoniaplus it's not an ubuntu project, or an IRC issue so why even discuss it on the mail list21:29
IdleOnethe last email about that real-time thing has me qioting something I never said21:57
IdleOneI for the record do not support it21:57
IdleOneoh wait. that isn't quoting me but a response to me21:57
IdleOneI still don't like it21:58
nhandlerCongrats to all of the new operators22:10
IdleOnethank you nhandler and same to you :)22:10
nhandler:)22:12
topyliIdleOne, let's see what they come up with. if they detach from our freenode credentials, i'm pretty much ok with anything22:26
topyliie they make another web service i can choose to care about or not22:26
IdleOnetopyli: personally I like the concept. I don't see it replacing irc. My main issue from the start was the security issue22:26
topyliyeah if they fix that, i'm alright22:27
ikoniaI don't see why it is anything to do with #ubuntu-irc at all22:27
IdleOneand yeah, so we really need another facebookish/twitter site22:27
IdleOneikonia: it doesn't but was sent to the list22:28
ikoniaexactly, so it should have been "this is nothing to do with ubuntu's IRC presnse" rather than the interaction it was22:29
IdleOneikonia: agreed but Gla was directed to the ML, in hindsight I think it was a good move as it alerted us to the security concerns22:30
ikoniawhat security concerns ??22:30
ikoniawe are not freenode22:30
ikonialet freenode deal with it22:30
ikoniathere is no security concern to ubuntu-irc's presnese22:30
ikonia(I know there is a security concern overall though)22:30
IdleOneikonia: the site itself has no signup it uses user nick and nickserv password or atleast that is what it seemed like22:30
ikoniaso - how is that an ubuntu issue ?22:31
IdleOneikonia: well what if without thinking about it you go and put in your nickserv pass. Then they have your pass and can auth as you and cause havoc22:32
ikoniaagain - how is that an ubuntu issue ?22:32
topyliikonia, it does concern us because we don't want operator privileges compromised. i agree that it's a freenode issue, but we have to remind ops22:32
ikoniatopyli: it doesn't concern us, are you going to police every site I may or may not put my password into ?22:32
ikoniathat response should be "this is nothing to do with ubuntu - please don't discuss it with us" - then inform freenode, </discussion>22:33
topyliikonia, no, just those that actively advertise through our communication channels :)22:33
IdleOneikonia: yes. That is not how it happened though22:33
ikoniatopyli: exactly - it should have been just stopped22:33
ikonia"please do not post this stuff here - this is not an ubuntu project, so please don't advertise it"22:34
topyliikonia, ok, that's a very good point. taken22:34
ikoniatopyli: not trying to be difficult here, but everything seems to be going process and "wiki page driven" - our remit is the ubuntu channels, as per the wiki - lets stick to that22:35
topylii'll think about advising gla to communicate with the council instead of public channels if they want to develop something22:36
ikoniawhy ?22:36
ikoniathis is not the councils business either22:36
ikoniayou are to council and govern the irc space - this is an extenral website that is nothing to do with ubuntu22:37
IdleOneikonia: but we are also committed to supporting FOSS projects and if this turns out to be a legit project then it would be good for the Council to have a say in how it is shaped22:38
topyliso far there is nothing interesting. it's better to not pollute the team channels. if they have something to suggest, they can talk to the ircc22:38
ikoniaIdleOne: the ubuntu irc team and council are not committed to supporting FOSS projects22:38
topyliikonia, it's better we deal with them than waste everybody's time22:39
ikoniatopyli: this is frustrating, this is not an IRC issue nor a council issue, nor an ubuntu issue, yet we are involing ourselves, yet things like ##club-ubuntu which ARE using the ubuntu name space are allowed to continue using that name to represent ubuntu22:39
ikoniathe mentality is messed up - drop the website project, it's nothing to do with us22:39
topyliikonia, please let us deal with it, i'll make sure we will22:40
ikoniathere is nothing to deal with ???22:40
ikoniawhy are you involving the council in this ?22:40
topylithey're sending email in your inbox aren't they?22:40
ikoniaI don't care about the mail22:40
ikoniaI care about the topic22:40
topylii care about the irc team22:41
ikoniawe are not here to support a 3rd party making a twitter site that links into freenode22:41
ikoniathe council are not here for that22:41
ikoniait's not about the irc team22:41
IdleOneikonia: there is, the greater ubuntu irc community is at risk of being compromised. this doesn't just affect the ops team22:41
ikoniaIdleOne: no there isn't22:41
ikoniaIdleOne: if we follow the practices of "this is not an ubuntu proejct please do not discuss it in our names spaces" the convesation is over - and the channels are safe22:41
topyliok, let's calm down22:41
ikoniayet we are fostering discussion and solutions22:41
ikoniaI'm perfectly calm22:41
ikoniaI'm expressing a dissatisfaction with an issue22:42
IdleOneikonia: and if we do nothing and don't let people know that this is not an official project then we are just as involved22:42
ikoniatopyli: where is the progress of my core channel ban on Bacta - the one I requested the process for ?22:42
IdleOneexcept we get " You didn't let us know. you all suck"22:43
ikoniaIdleOne: we are not doing nothing - telling him "no" end of discussion is protecting the commuinity and following the irc charter22:43
topyliwhat i'm trying to say is that we were approached, and it's probably the ircc's job to deal with the company, whether or not it's related to irc. the whole team should not be bothered22:43
topyliif you like, i can do nothing also22:44
ikoniatopyli: there is nothing to "deal with"22:44
topyliok22:44
ikoniatopyli: I know this sounds harsh, and like I'm being a pain, but I've had "the charter" rammed in my face so much of late, I'd like to see if followed too22:44
ikoniais this website an ubuntu project - no, is it an irc issue, no, therefore please to not discuss it on the mail lists or channels22:45
ikoniawhere in the wiki charter does it say we invole ourselves in developing third party web solutions with external companies ???22:45
IdleOneikonia: To late for that, right or wrong it was sent to the list and now it needs to be dealt with22:46
topyliikonia, what's your practical, positive suggestion then? filter out messages from this company?22:46
ikoniaIdleOne: and dealing with it is "this is nothing to do with us, please don't discuss it in the ubuntu name space"22:46
ikoniatopyli: no, a simple message saying please don't post this again22:46
ikoniarather than the 10 discussion email thread that's starting22:46
topyliok, i'll note that. i also hope joe's mail with freenode hat on works a little22:47
ikoniatopyli: yes, I thought that mail was helpful also22:47
topyliikonia, okay, i think your point is very convincing, and i'm going to act accordingly. we don't need this on the list22:53
ikoniathank you22:54
IdleOnesounds good22:54
topylithese guys can build another service, unrelated to us, and good luck to them22:55
ikoniaI have no issue with want they want to do (think it's a bad idea) and I don't care (from an ubuntu point of view) that they want to auth against anything22:58
topylilet's just hope it will be awesome and add a nice contribution to the success of ubuntu! :)22:58
topyliit's just not related to us, so they're on their own22:59
