[00:00] <pleia2> akgraner: was too tired last night to move my data and stuff over :\ so I've only played with it simless
[00:00] <pleia2> it's nice, I miss my keyboard though
[00:01] <akgraner> ahh - yeah I asked pete if I can have the n900 now hehe
[00:01] <pleia2> lol
[00:01] <Tm_T> ):
[02:45] <pleia2> oh gosh, we forgot about the forum /again/
[02:45] <pleia2> maco: when you have a chance, can you unsticky the int'l women's day thing and sticky this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9128756
[03:03] <elky> pleia2, it's not like the forums themselves care enough to say anything :(
[03:03] <pleia2> I dunno, I think it's kinda the strange nature of the medium I don't understand
[03:04] <MichelleQ> oh, fart.  I've supposed to be minding them.
[03:04] <MichelleQ> It got lost on my 27-page to-do list.
[03:04] <pleia2> hehe
[03:04] <pleia2> no worries, as long as one of us gets to it :)
[03:04] <pleia2> I remembered when I got an update reminder
[03:04] <MichelleQ> between that, and my email client randomly not receiving the mailing list emails...
[03:04] <MichelleQ> sigh
[03:05] <pleia2> that's no good :\
[03:05] <MichelleQ> yeah, it's really frustrating
[03:05] <MichelleQ> that's why I don't make it into half the meetings... Don't know they're going on.
[03:05] <pleia2> we try to keep the /topic updated too
[03:06] <MichelleQ> I know.  That requires I read it. :-P
[03:06] <pleia2> hehe
[03:06] <MichelleQ> Will try to keep a better handle on the forums.
[03:06] <MichelleQ> Perhaps I should schedule it on my Google calendar.
[03:06] <MichelleQ> Once a week reminder.
[03:07] <elky> what we really need is an address we can CC important announcements too or something
[03:07] <elky> so that it goes there
[03:07] <IdleOne> I volunteer lyz at ubuntu com
[03:07] <IdleOne> :)
[03:08] <pleia2> oy!
[03:08] <IdleOne> no?
[03:08] <pleia2> actually, I should figure out how fridge does it
[03:17] <maco> pleia2: done
[03:17] <pleia2> thanks maco! :)
[03:38] <nhandler> pleia2: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fridge/Calendar
[03:39] <pleia2> hm?
[03:40] <nhandler> 21:08:09 < pleia2> actually, I should figure out how fridge does it
[03:40] <pleia2> I was talking about how fridge posts are automatically synced to the forum
[03:40] <pleia2> nothing to do with the calendar
[03:46] <elky> nhandler, we're trying to find a way that us forum shunners can easily forward select stuff to the forums
[03:46] <elky> kind of in the manner that one can set a sekrit email to send blog posts to
[03:46] <nhandler> pleia2: Ah, misunderstood. Did you ever add an item to the Forum Council agenda requesting that?
[03:47] <nhandler> The technology exists, it is just a matter of them giving you the ok and flipping the switch
[03:47] <pleia2> nhandler: no, I didn't know that was the procedure, and elky just suggested a few minutes ago ;)
[03:47] <pleia2> does it do it via a drupal module? or an email? or..?
[03:47] <elky> plz to say email
[03:47] <nhandler> pleia2: I think it might be by rss, but that is a guess
[03:48] <elky> that works too, we can hax0r something around for that
[03:48] <nhandler> I highly doubt it is email (for security reasons)
[03:48] <elky> heh. heheheh. What they don't know :P
[03:48] <pleia2> yeah, we could work with rss
[03:49] <elky> pleia2, i think this means we shift to wordpress like postehaste. rss of a certain tag = awesome sauce
[03:50] <pleia2> yeah :)
[03:50] <pleia2> so, it appears that canonical will support wordpress someday
[03:50] <pleia2> do we wnat to go with wordpress.com, have them direct a subdomain at it, and then maybe migrate to canonical once it's offered?
[03:50] <elky> pleia2, which means we can set up a wordpress anywhere right now and port it when it's supported
[03:51] <maco> elky: #ubuntu, Lunix4noobs, please ban
[03:51] <elky> (and yes, I still find it incredulous that canonical sysadmins are wordpress-friendly)
[03:51] <maco> elky: nevermind. flannel got it
[03:54] <nhandler> The Fridge is switching to WP sometime before July (preferably May). So support will probably pick up around then
[03:55] <elky> nhandler, well, it'd be nice if we could start tidying up the UW site now, so we'll probably start without them.
[04:00] <akgraner> joey and I talked about how that worked yesterday - fridge to forum posts
[04:01] <elky> And?
[04:01] <akgraner> they are tracking down the person who set it all up "way back when" is what he told me so they can set it up again with the WP site rolls out
[04:02] <akgraner> so the process will get documented soon :-)  so they aren't tracking people down again
[04:02] <elky> cool
[04:02] <akgraner> yep
[04:02] <pleia2> there was no love on the list for privately hosted
[04:03] <elky> It'll just be an xml-rpc stuff
[04:03] <akgraner> so as soon as I find out the process  - I will pass all that along
[04:03] <pleia2> so probably just jump on wordpress.com for now
[04:03] <pleia2> give several people access
[04:03] <elky> pleia2, yeah, but wasn't that as a final home thing, not an interim thing?
[04:04] <pleia2> honestly I don't want to depend upon canonical getting their act together and supporting wordpress for everyone
[04:04] <pleia2> just because they'll do it for fridge doesn't give me hope that they really will do it for everyone in a timely manner
[04:04] <elky> pleia2, also, domains on wordpress.com cost monies :(
[04:04] <pleia2> oh, really?
[04:05] <elky> yeah
[04:05] <akgraner> yeah something like 9.95 then there is another cost on top of that
[04:05] <akgraner> can't remember off the top of my head
[04:05] <elky> we'd have to get a forward set up at the canonical end to something like ubuntuwomen.wordpress.com
[04:06] <pleia2> akgraner: monthly or yearly?
[04:07] <pleia2> their site is annoyingly unhelpful with actually telling you
[04:08] <akgraner> you have to have a blog you need to upgrade to see the prices
[04:08] <pleia2> annoying
[04:08] <akgraner> I'll get that info  - in the morning if that is ok
[04:08] <pleia2> and ubuntuwomen.wordpress.com is taken
[04:09] <maco> i think its yearly
[04:09] <akgraner> :-/ taken wow
[04:09] <maco> taken by WHOM?
[04:09] <maco> someone who speaks arabic, apparently
[04:11] <maco> correction, persian
[04:11] <akgraner> looks like last post was in 2008
[04:11] <maco> i put the About page through google translate. gibberish if i pick arabic. at-least-they're-words if i pick persian
[04:11] <maco> Putting the team name is very ridiculous! Because now I am just good friends ... and me too, that ends me and support thanks to Darren! But now Khvmm ladies. I am a new Monireh Avbvntvyy work!
[04:11] <maco> I'm Khvshal Total Dkhtrvnh got that far from creating any concerns with a Btvnym in information technology and especially high similar to Ubuntu 3 Gvgvry Mgvry (These are always attribute the Buddha), we exchange information.
[04:11] <maco> Yeah, all successful
[04:13] <maco> ok from google translate, i'm /guessing/ they tried to make an Iranian Ubuntu Women localised team and maintain a blog together
[04:14] <pleia2> well, depending on cost (if it's less than $50/yr, no problem) I don't mind snagging ubuntu-women.wordpress.com for now
[04:39] <elky> pleia2, i think it's well less than that, yeah
[07:28] <jussi> pleia2: elky: ubuntuwomen.org is available. we can host it on the same box as ubottu.com if you like.
[07:32] <elky> jussi, ubottu.com has multiple admins, yeah?
[07:32] <elky> (and we ought to have that domain anyway, realistically)
[07:33] <pleia2> jussi: we already have ubuntu-women.org hosted by canonical, we're just going to use blog.ubuntu-women.org
[07:33] <jussi> pleia2: ahh
[07:33] <pleia2> we were talking about the wordpress name if we took temporary hosting there
[07:33] <jussi> well if you need something on ubottu.com's machine, let me know.
[07:33] <jussi> Id be happy to add pleia2 with sudo rights.
[07:34] <pleia2> thanks for offering jussi, we'll consider it :)
[07:34] <pleia2> what happened to your 01?
[07:34] <jussi> pleia2: jussi became available...
[07:34] <jussi> been waiting for it for a long time.
[07:34]  * pleia2 liked jussi01
[07:34] <pleia2> :)
[07:35] <elky> it's still in his cloak
[07:35] <elky> just like my old nick is
[07:35] <pleia2> yeah I miss elkbuntu too!
[07:35]  * pleia2 hates change, apparently
[07:35] <elky> pleia2, that's fine for you. You weren't getting monthly PM's asking where to download yourself.
[07:36] <pleia2> heh
[07:37] <jussi> pleia2: in a months time youll be used to it.
[08:19] <dholbach> good morning
[08:23] <Tm_T> jussi: I disagree
[08:25] <elky> Oh my. It appears tr.im is too smart for its own good.
[08:26] <elky> https://twitter.com/elkbuntu/statuses/12112708587 <-- spot the lol
[08:26] <valorie> hahaha, I think that's the one I passed around, too
[08:27] <valorie> I wonder how many people will catch that?
[08:27] <elky> It took me 3 days.
[08:27] <valorie> or.....snatch that
[08:27] <valorie> rofl
[08:27] <elky> and as someone else pointed out to me, it's a /trim/ one.
[08:27] <valorie> oops, we're in project
[08:27] <valorie> oh well....
[08:28] <elky> Yeah, I know. The tweet is about a project! :P
[08:29] <valorie> 'tis, forsooth
[08:33] <elky> Also, this documents that Elusive Feminist Humour thing that apparently doesn't exist.
[08:37] <valorie> there are humorless feminists
[08:37] <valorie> but that ain't most of us
[08:39] <elky> There's also humorless misogynists too. Funny how that works, eh ;)
[08:41] <valorie> haters are usually humorless
[14:06] <maco> elky: i got my cloak fixed a while back
[14:06] <elky> maco, that's great. I haven't for the reason that people still to this day ask if I'm elkbuntu.
[14:06] <maco> haha
[14:06] <elky> It'd be more if I got it fixed.
[20:24] <akgraner> only one open week slot left
[20:25] <akgraner> anyone want to facilitate a session :-)
[20:25] <akgraner> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek
[20:26] <akgraner> pleia2, :-D  hint hint
[21:52] <pleia2> akgraner: alas, nothing I'm working on right at the moment is in a presentable state, hopefully next time :)
[21:52] <akgraner> ahh ok - :-) that's cool - Scott Richie just grabbed the last slot :-)
[21:53] <pleia2> cool
