| mgariepy | good morning everyone | 14:18 |
| stgraber | hey mgariepy | 14:22 |
| mgariepy | how you doing stgraber ? | 14:41 |
| stgraber | very good :) Testing some edubuntu and gently upgrading a bunch of services to Lucid where their hardy-equivalent were lacking important features ;) | 14:42 |
| akgraner | highvolt1ge, stgraber - http://www.ubuntu-user.com/Online/Blogs/Amber-Graner-You-in-Ubuntu/Edubuntu-Empowering-Enjoyable-Education-one-desktop-at-a-time! | 14:46 |
| stgraber | akgraner: "Module not found" | 14:47 |
| akgraner | dang it - They must still have the public link down - let me call them and find out... | 14:48 |
| akgraner | stgraber, can you get to it this way - http://www.ubuntu-user.com/Online/Blogs/Amber-Graner-You-in-Ubuntu | 14:49 |
| stgraber | ok, found the issue ;) that "!" isn't copy/pasted and so the URL doesn't work. Manually adding it at the end of the URL make it work | 14:50 |
| akgraner | The site admins were working on the site and have my permissions for adding images set wrong - so I am working on it | 14:50 |
| akgraner | str | 14:55 |
| akgraner | autotab fail :-( | 14:55 |
| akgraner | stgraber, thanks as soon as they fix my permissions - I'll add the images | 14:56 |
| stgraber | great, thanks | 14:56 |
| akgraner | sorry it took so long | 14:56 |
| akgraner | Also Issue 6 of Ubuntu User will have the CD with Edubuntu on it - Has any one talked to you all about anything for the Print Magazine? | 14:58 |
| stgraber | nope, not me at least and I don't think Jonathan was contacted either | 14:59 |
| mhall119 | good interview | 14:59 |
| akgraner | stgraber, okie dokie - let me send an email then - Issue 5 goes to print Thursday | 14:59 |
| akgraner | Then we start working on Issue 6 - If you haven't heard back from by UDS will you ask me about it please | 15:00 |
| akgraner | stgraber, and you all have permission to use a 2 x 4 above the neck and shoulders if you need too | 15:03 |
| stgraber | akgraner: will you be physically at UDS this time too or remotely as you did for UDS-Karmic ? | 15:05 |
| akgraner | stgraber, I'll be in Brussels | 15:06 |
| akgraner | so one evening we can knock out the article with screen shots and all that good stuff if you all want | 15:07 |
| stgraber | yep, sounds good. I'm still hoping for Jonathan to make it but he'd first need his passport back so he can apply for a european visa ... now that we are less than two weeks again, it becomes less and less likely to happen :( | 15:08 |
| akgraner | :-( | 15:09 |
| akgraner | I'll keep my fingers crossed | 15:09 |
| mhall119 | I hope the next UDS is in USA, so I don't need a passport | 15:09 |
| stgraber | mhall119: currently it's a Europe-USA rotation, so if it stays that way you should be fine. | 15:10 |
| dinda | akgraner: did you manage to interview Chris Kenyon or anyone at Canonical about Edubuntu? | 15:10 |
| mhall119 | stgraber: I thought it was Europe-N. America | 15:10 |
| stgraber | mhall119: well, last time it was outside the US in north america, it was in Montreal, not sure how long ago that was. | 15:11 |
| mhall119 | yeah, but I think new laws mean I need a passport even for Canada | 15:11 |
| stgraber | mhall119: if I remember well (I live in Canada but I'm swiss so I need a passport to go to the US myself), you can sort-of upgrade your driving licence to act as some kind of passport to go to Canada | 15:12 |
| stgraber | mhall119: it's supposed to be a lot easier and cheaper than getting an actual passport | 15:13 |
| akgraner | dinda, not for this post - was hoping to do all that at UDS | 15:13 |
| akgraner | I have Chris listed on my Interview spreadsheet though | 15:13 |
| stgraber | dinda: that'd indeed be an interesting interview ;) | 15:13 |
| mhall119 | stgraber: I'll look into it, thanks | 15:14 |
| mhall119 | I just need to get a password anyway | 15:14 |
| dinda | akgraner: ok, was hoping to get some 'official' word from them on status/future of h ow they see Edubuntu | 15:14 |
| mhall119 | so Canonical can give me free trips to Europe | 15:14 |
| akgraner | I had him listed for another topic, but will put Edubuntu on there as well | 15:14 |
| akgraner | dinda, gotcha | 15:14 |
| dinda | stgraber: yes, been trying to get official word as I hear from one camp the Edubuntu is officially supported and sometimes no response. . . | 15:14 |
| akgraner | dinda, or anyone feel free to pm or email me questions and I'll see how to work them in | 15:15 |
| dinda | stgraber: was trying to get a definitive answer if a school/person wanted to buy paid support for an Edubuntu install, could they? | 15:15 |
| dinda | stgraber et al: I'm working on a Using Edubuntu 9.10 course right now, CC licensed, so anyone acces teh course | 15:16 |
| stgraber | dinda: my understanding so far (and that's what's know advertised as meta-information in the archive) is that components that are also part of ubuntu and kubuntu should have the same level of support as they have in ubuntu/kubuntu but the additional packages we include aren't supported (in the archive, it appears as a missing Supported: field). | 15:17 |
| dinda | I hope to update it to the 10.04 release in time for summer and all those teachers with time on their hands :) | 15:17 |
| stgraber | dinda: would be great to have an official statement and not just have to guess though | 15:17 |
| dinda | stgraber: exactly, I think even Canonical is confused at the moment but it will get worked out | 15:17 |
| stgraber | dinda: yeah, 10.04 should be a great release. The menu editor and fixed sabayon should make managing a classroom environment a lot easier and LTSP is just a click away now (instead of having to use the text installer for it as we had in the past). | 15:18 |
| dinda | stgraber: I've been running 9.10 but look forward to upgrading soon and testing the ltsp stuff soon | 15:19 |
| stgraber | dinda: will you be in Brussels ? It seems that we managed to miss each other at last UDS even though you told me which days you'd be there ;) | 15:19 |
| dinda | stgraber: unfortunately wont' be in Brussels :( | 15:20 |
| dinda | stgraber: but will try to listen in remotely | 15:20 |
| akgraner | stgraber, dinda I noted the support question - if you all have more just drop me an email | 15:21 |
| akgraner | catch you all laters and as soon as I can I'll add the images | 15:22 |
| stgraber | akgraner: ok, thanks | 15:22 |
