[06:38] Good morning === ogra_ is now known as ogra [14:18] good morning everyone [14:22] hey mgariepy [14:41] how you doing stgraber ? [14:42] very good :) Testing some edubuntu and gently upgrading a bunch of services to Lucid where their hardy-equivalent were lacking important features ;) [14:46] highvolt1ge, stgraber - http://www.ubuntu-user.com/Online/Blogs/Amber-Graner-You-in-Ubuntu/Edubuntu-Empowering-Enjoyable-Education-one-desktop-at-a-time! [14:47] akgraner: "Module not found" [14:48] dang it - They must still have the public link down - let me call them and find out... [14:49] stgraber, can you get to it this way - http://www.ubuntu-user.com/Online/Blogs/Amber-Graner-You-in-Ubuntu [14:50] 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] The site admins were working on the site and have my permissions for adding images set wrong - so I am working on it [14:55] str [14:55] autotab fail :-( [14:56] stgraber, thanks as soon as they fix my permissions - I'll add the images [14:56] great, thanks [14:56] sorry it took so long [14:58] 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? [14:59] nope, not me at least and I don't think Jonathan was contacted either [14:59] good interview [14:59] stgraber, okie dokie - let me send an email then - Issue 5 goes to print Thursday [15:00] Then we start working on Issue 6 - If you haven't heard back from by UDS will you ask me about it please [15:03] stgraber, and you all have permission to use a 2 x 4 above the neck and shoulders if you need too [15:05] akgraner: will you be physically at UDS this time too or remotely as you did for UDS-Karmic ? [15:06] stgraber, I'll be in Brussels [15:07] so one evening we can knock out the article with screen shots and all that good stuff if you all want [15:08] 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 :( [15:09] :-( [15:09] I'll keep my fingers crossed [15:09] I hope the next UDS is in USA, so I don't need a passport [15:10] mhall119: currently it's a Europe-USA rotation, so if it stays that way you should be fine. [15:10] akgraner: did you manage to interview Chris Kenyon or anyone at Canonical about Edubuntu? [15:10] stgraber: I thought it was Europe-N. America [15:11] 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] yeah, but I think new laws mean I need a passport even for Canada [15:12] 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 [15:13] mhall119: it's supposed to be a lot easier and cheaper than getting an actual passport [15:13] dinda, not for this post - was hoping to do all that at UDS [15:13] I have Chris listed on my Interview spreadsheet though [15:13] dinda: that'd indeed be an interesting interview ;) [15:14] stgraber: I'll look into it, thanks [15:14] I just need to get a password anyway [15:14] akgraner: ok, was hoping to get some 'official' word from them on status/future of h ow they see Edubuntu [15:14] so Canonical can give me free trips to Europe [15:14] I had him listed for another topic, but will put Edubuntu on there as well [15:14] dinda, gotcha [15:14] stgraber: yes, been trying to get official word as I hear from one camp the Edubuntu is officially supported and sometimes no response. . . [15:15] dinda, or anyone feel free to pm or email me questions and I'll see how to work them in [15:15] stgraber: was trying to get a definitive answer if a school/person wanted to buy paid support for an Edubuntu install, could they? [15:16] stgraber et al: I'm working on a Using Edubuntu 9.10 course right now, CC licensed, so anyone acces teh course [15:17] 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] 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] dinda: would be great to have an official statement and not just have to guess though [15:17] stgraber: exactly, I think even Canonical is confused at the moment but it will get worked out [15:18] 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). [15:19] stgraber: I've been running 9.10 but look forward to upgrading soon and testing the ltsp stuff soon [15:19] 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 ;) [15:20] stgraber: unfortunately wont' be in Brussels :( [15:20] stgraber: but will try to listen in remotely [15:21] stgraber, dinda I noted the support question - if you all have more just drop me an email [15:22] catch you all laters and as soon as I can I'll add the images [15:22] akgraner: ok, thanks [17:25] highvoltage: hows your internet? [18:33] bencrisford: totally rubbish. sorry for all the parts/joins [18:34] eek, I've been thrown in ##fix_your_connection [18:34] (bye) [18:53] isforinsects: hey [21:59] bencrisford: hello [22:00] isforinsects: I got your email :) [22:01] So what's new in the edubuntu world? [22:03] isforinsects: lots of exciting things going on :) [22:04] theres a meeting tommorrow [22:04] 19.00 UTC I think [22:04] if you could attend that would be fantastic [22:05] yep, 19:00 UTC [22:05] Hrrm, that is... 2200 est? [22:05] * isforinsects checks [22:06] isforinsects: est as in EDT ? [22:06] wrong direction, derp [22:06] bencrisford: did you see the interview ? [22:06] yes. 1500 [22:06] isforinsects: that's 3pm EDT [22:08] this meeting: https://wiki.edubuntu.org/Edubuntu/Meetings/Agenda [22:08] yep [22:09] stgraber: akgraner's one? [22:09] bencrisford: yup [22:10] stgraber: yeah, was very nicely done :), hopefully it will help show people where we are and that we need them
