[07:38] * abogani waves [13:06] * abogani waves [13:06] o/ [16:32] yarrrr [16:33] Yes? [18:50] so does ubuntustudio manage a seperate repo of any kind? [18:54] andyzweb: Nope. All Ubuntu official repositories. [18:55] andyzweb: There's talk about a Ubuntu Studio PPA, mainly for backports, but that's to discuss in the next meeting on Sunday. [18:57] Are there packages in the official repositories that are contributed primarily by ubuntustudio folks? [19:11] andyzweb: There are, but since I've been away during the last couple of releases, I can't recall which. I tried to find this info from the wiki or help.u.c, but to no avail. [19:13] andyzweb: I think mscore was prepared by Toby Smithe, and I believe he got it into Debian as well, but am not up-to-date on how it's doing these days. [19:14] andyzweb: But I'm sure there are others. Ask around, when others are awake. [19:20] astraljava: ok I plan on being here for the meeting, I put it in my calendar [19:26] andyzweb: Good to hear! :) [19:41] crimsun: how is going UDS? [19:41] I am looking at your interview :D [19:52] do you guys need any visual basic coders [19:55] andyzweb: http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/multidistrotools/ubuntustudio.html#notinA [19:55] these are packages that are not in Debian at all, so I would say they are maintained by Ubuntu folk [19:56] perhaps not all by active ubuntustudio people, but some might be [19:56] rlameiro: how are you looking at his interview? it is a webcam thing? can you post a link? [19:57] * scott-work has been listening to Sly and the Family Stone and feeling *funky* [19:57] scott-work: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gvTeI6-bms [19:59] LOL, i had no idea dtchen was crimsun ! [19:59] irv_: Unlikely, isn't that restricted to Windows platforms? [20:00] astraljava: well, ther is mono [20:01] rlameiro: But doesn't it run C# binaries? Or am I totally mistaken? [20:01] astraljava: actually i dont know.... maybe just c#.... [20:03] irv_: Okay, I'll take that back. According to http://www.mono-project.com/Language_BASIC, there is now support for visual basic .net in mono. [20:03] astraljava: ha ha [20:03] astraljava: http://www.mono-project.com/Language_BASIC [20:03] astraljava: it was more of a joke, but sweet. [20:03] :p [20:04] but isnt VB a BAD lang ;P [20:04] irv_: Just come up with a cool idea for an application, and we'll welcome it with open arms. :) [20:04] in python :D [20:05] mono is an implementation of the Common Language Infrastructure [20:05] rlameiro: Haven't researched it at all during its .Net times, might have evolved quite a bit. [20:07] so any language that compiles to the Common Intermediate Language bytecode should run in mono [20:15] andyzweb: I don't know, the page mentioned above seems to indicate a separate compiler for VB is needed after all. But /me is willing to admit he knows next to nothing about mono overall... :) [20:20] astraljava: Mono is not too bad Think of it as Java with better syntax but less security or cross platform compatibility (at this point anyway) [20:30] Bye the way I am going to install UbuntuStudio 10.04 on my macbook pro today/tomorrow. Is there somewhere I should report my results? [20:31] ubuntustudio-users@lists.ubuntu.com? ubuntuforums.org in Ubuntu Studio section? [20:44] i did a clean install of ubuntu studio 10.04 yesterday on an i386, but i haven't really used it yet [20:45] i'm hoping to use this machine for a presentation and then give the computer away to one person at the presentation! [20:45] just the comptuer, which was a $70 p4, 2.8 ghz + $30 1gig memory [20:45] scott-work: Cool. Do you also provide personal support for that? :) [20:46] astraljava: in this case, yes [20:46] scott-work: My hat's off to ya. :) [20:46] but i have also told several people at work that if they want to use an old machine to install studio I will make sure they get it up and running [20:47] and show them how to use it for rudimentary recording [20:47] That's nice. [20:50] I watched a presentation of setting up a LoCo during the latest UOW, and started contemplating about doing so here. It's a 120,000+ town after all, and a huge proportion of students, so might actually get lucky. [20:51] this would be a first meeting of what might be a LoCo [20:52] Oh cool. Where do you live btw.? [20:52] two of the people actually have Ubuntu and use it, probably the other four or five will eventually use ubuntu studio as their are hobbyist musicians [20:52] i live in montgomery, texas, usa [20:52] Ok. [20:53] historic old town, not many people, but i work in Conroe which is just north of Houston [20:53] and Houston is huge [20:54] apparently Conroe had a population of 55,429 in 2008 [20:55] Right. Actually I'm some 20 ml. from the center of the town, the village I live in only has some 5k or so. [20:57] Houston has their own LoCo but they tend to meet on the south side of town, so i'm hoping to get a group of friends together, announce it on the LoCo mailing list and pull from the group that do not regularly attend because of the meeting location [20:57] Yeah. I bet there are users on the north side of that huge metro. [20:57] i really don't want to lead a LoCo though, I've already got too much going on already [20:58] although if it was based in Montgomery it would be the MoCoLoCo ;) [20:58] :D [21:01] hello folks [21:02] Hi. [21:02] scott-work, finally I've decided to try to become DD :) [21:02] Nice. :) [21:03] quadrispro: what is a DD? [21:03] Debian Developer. [21:03] that's what I thought it meant [21:03] but i thought you already were one quadrispro [21:04] or were you only part of the Debian Multimedia team? [21:04] scott-work, eh no, I am debian maintainer [21:04] either way, awesome it is! [21:04] and part of Debian Multimedia team [21:05] yep, some other italian DDs have convinced me [21:06] good for you :) [21:06] i wish i had more time to devote to packaging [21:06] ...and for us as well. :D [21:06] :) [21:07] scott-work, now we (me and another Deb-Multimedia guy, Jaromir Mikes) are working hard on LV2 related stuff [21:07] plugins, synth, hosts etc [21:08] that is really cool as well :) [21:09] so please, instead of dputting packages to REVU, get in touch with me [21:11] quadrispro: Actually I've been meaning to start developing for Debian as well, so maybe we could work together if I'm of any assistance? [21:11] we hope to give maverick all the most popular LV2 tools [21:11] astraljava, of course [21:12] yes [21:14] I just need to move at the end of this month, after that I'll have much more time for these kind of hobbies. [21:14] But am already following debian-multimedia team on mailing list and IRC. [21:15] cool, do you already have an account on alioth? [21:15] Actually already filed a couple of ITPs a while back, but haven't got time for them since we started building the house. [21:15] quadrispro: No, not yet. [21:19] quadrispro: that is incredibly awesome that you (and Debian Multimedia) are helping out [21:20] I think so too. That's why I want to give my thanks by contributing back. [21:20] astraljava, it may be a good first step, after subscribing on alioth please send us a short presentation [21:20] and tell about your ITP, sure you'll find some good sponsor [21:21] quadrispro: Sure I will do that. Might go until June, but I'll definitely be on that, thanks! [21:21] scott-work, we are in the same family :) [21:22] that's funny you say that because I'm working on a blog post that says the same thing, but in a Sly way [21:23] ehehe [21:23] astraljava, you're welcome! [21:23] guys, leaving right now for a beer [21:23] see you later! [21:25] bye :) [21:25] Later. :) [21:30] scott-work: what do you think of a RSVP thing? [21:30] rlameiro: for the meeting calendar? [21:30] for the meeting, to have an idea of who will come or not [21:30] something like that [21:33] scott-work: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/376735 http://drupal.org/project/rsvp [21:38] For a non-mandatory meeting, I don't see a point. However, I do think that there ought to be mandatory meetings too, especially when drawing the lines of where the distro is bound to be headed. [21:40] yeap, but fisrt the team needs to be defined to have a mandatory meeting [21:40] but i agree with you astraljava [21:41] rlameiro: You have a point there, _if_ there is to be a strict team structure. [21:41] astraljava: well, at least a minimum core team [21:41] rlameiro: That is true. [22:21] ah, rlameiro left already
