nigelbcjohnston: heya, back home?04:01
Pendulummorning11:40
Pendulumnigelb: he wasn't leaving Belgium until today. I suspect it'll be another 12-hoursish until he's home11:41
* jussi waves to Pendulum11:42
Pendulumhiya jussi11:43
qenseHello everyone!11:45
nigelbPendulum: yeah, I skyped him a litter later12:01
nigelbaarg, little12:01
nigelbheya jussi :)12:01
qensenigelb: This is wat the rooms looked like, in case you haven't seen a picture yet: <http://www.flickr.com/photos/qense/4610914617/in/photostream/>.12:28
nigelbqense: thank you :) I saw videos12:28
nigelbbut its nice to see good quality photos :)12:28
qenseah, good12:28
qensegood quality, funny joke12:29
nigelbqense: you haven't seen the videos yet I suppose12:29
qenseI have, but my camera isn't exactly top-quality.12:29
nigelbits similar to mine :)12:29
nigelbqense: you took what 5 photos?12:33
qensenigelb: A little more, but those were duplicates. ;)12:34
qenseI depend on others for more fun photos.12:34
nigelbqense: haha! you need to learn about photography :D12:34
nigelbabout appreciating the beauty around yo12:34
nigelblast time I took my camera for a team dinner, I clicked 150 pics (well, around 20 ro 30 were bad)12:35
qenseMy camera isn't really nice and it uses its batteries real quick.12:36
nigelbyeah, I generally carry 3 sets of baterries12:36
nigelbmine's a kodak too12:36
qensenigelb: If people start adding stuff to the Flickr map things should show up here: <http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/uds-m/map>. Ask them to! ;)12:44
nigelbqense: the bunch I saw were on facebook mostly12:45
qenseaww12:45
qenseFacebook :S12:45
qenseFacebook scales the pictures down.12:45
nigelbyeah12:45
nigelbtats why I like flickr12:45
qenseEveryone, correctly tagged pictures should appear t <http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/udsm/>.12:50
qensethe hyphen doesn't really amtter12:50
qenseHowever, there also appears to be an African (Ugandan?) organisation called UDSM, so things might be confused.12:55
qenseTold the story about the UDS hotel making a small fuss about me not having a credit card. My sister said "I want a credit card, then I can go shopping!" ... Credit cards are Very Bad(TM). You shouldn't pay with money you don't have or may not have.13:38
Mamarokit would be nice to remove those red eyes before uploading pics, looks scary14:10
Mamarokhm, maybe tagging with uds-m would take away some confusion14:36
Mamarokdoesn't seem to hel, they don't make a differenc with or without the hyphen14:37
qenseno14:43
nigelbqense: thanks for arranging the tagging.  Nice to se all the photos together :)15:12
qensenigelb: arranging? How did I arrange it?15:12
nigelbwell, announcing15:13

nigelbqense: ^15:16
qensethanks!15:16
qenseThat are multiple photos stitched together, by the way.15:17
qensenigelb: The track leads are wearing orange t-shirts, and they're spreaded throughout the audience.15:19
nigelbI can recognize AlanBel, popey, czajkowski, jono, jcastro, amber, pete, rick, benjamin, riddel, chris, ivanka, lyz15:19
nigelbqense: look at bottom-most row15:19
nigelbPendulum: where art thou in the pic? I cant find you15:20
popeynigelb: sil/aq is next to me15:20
qensenigelb: pendulum always at at the top of the bottom section in the middle walk.15:20

nigelbpopey: who;s that sitting on jono, pete, and rick's lap?15:22
popeypen is next to alan bell15:22

nigelbpopey: top row right.  Alan Bell with a black t?15:22
popeyyes15:22
qensenigelb: have you found me already?15:23

popeyMarks PA15:24
nigelbpopey: sladen is the guy with long hair?15:24
nigelbahh :)15:24
nigelbI like the look of the guy siting next to pete.  its like 'I have not part in this'15:25

qense:D15:25
nigelbI looooove jcastro's jersey hehe15:25

qensenigelb: grey t-short :)15:27
qensenot very helpful15:27
qenseclose to sabdfl15:28
popeybehind and to the left15:29
qenseyes15:30
qenseI had expected to look worse on the group photo, but this is not too bad. Not as good as the guy in the black t-shirt behind the monitor at the first row, though. ;)15:31
popeycant believe martin couldn't put his ipad down for 30 seconds15:33
qenseHe must be addicted to it already. Wouldn't be surprised if Apple puts something in it that makes you can't put it away.15:34
popeythe aliminium case has crack embedded in it15:34
qenseprobably15:38
AlanBellooh group photo :-)15:45
qenseIt's there!15:45
qenseI would also like to ask everyone here again to put their UDS photos on the Flickr map <http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/uds-m/map>. Just because it is possible. :)15:46
AlanBellI really like that sabdfl is just sat in a random place somewhere in the middle15:52
nigelbqense: found you, diagonal above sabdfl15:53
nigelbwas afk, power went out15:53
qenseCorrect!15:54
qenseA shame power went out.15:54
qenseAlanBell: yeah, in the middle of the people15:54
nigelbdoctormo bought an ipad?15:56
qenseHe meant another Martin, at the front row.15:56
nigelbahh15:56
nigelbwell, whoever it is, 'traitor!' haha15:56
nigelbAlanBell: +1, I liked that too15:56
AlanBellchap with a cap on15:56
nigelbnothing flashy either15:57
AlanBellhe is hacking it to run Ubuntu15:57
nigelboh, cool.  I hope apple doesn't sue him15:57
nigelbwhere's mdz? I can't find him :(15:57
nigelbqense: is vish wearing a black coat or something?16:01
qensenigelb: he's at the left top, not very sharp16:01
nigelbblue T?16:02
AlanBellit would be good to put that image somewhere with a collaborative image map tagging thing so we could put an onhover name on everyone16:02
nigelbyeah, poke kwii16:02
qenseIt is huge. :P16:02
qenseIt sure needs crowd-source to tag people.16:02
qenseAlanBell: What website would you suggest to do it with?16:03
AlanBellno idea, I think facebook does something like that, never used it myself16:03
AlanBellI could code it :-)16:03
nigelbflickr can do it :)16:03
qensenigelb: But can you point where people are?16:03
AlanBellI am not really in to online photo stuff16:03
nigelbyeah, but first the owner needs to allow us to do it16:04
hihihi100can any of u help me with an IBUS issue?16:04
hihihi100I cannot see the icons that should appear on the left of any line of the combo box16:04
nigelbhihihi100: have you tried asking #ubuntu?16:05
nigelbthis really isn't a support channel16:05
hihihi100nope, ill go there16:05
qensenigelb: Ah, I see.16:05
qenseAlanBell: ping kwwii to allow us to do so and get everyone on Flickr!16:05
qensenigelb: Downside: we'd need everyone to get a Flickr account for it to work.16:06
nigelbqense: yeah, thats there16:06
qensenigelb: or maybe not, let me test16:06
qensenigelb: yes, the person has to be registered16:07
qensenigelb: wait, I think you can add people using the email address, they then can confirm it.16:07
nigelboooh, nice :)16:08
qenseAlanBell, nigelb: Confirmed. You can add people with their email address if they're not on Flickr, but they will have to confirm, and I'm not sure if they have to register or so.16:09
nigelbqense: worth it, I'd say16:09
AlanBellcool, kwii has labled it "first version" of the photo so there might be a bit of further enhancement that can be done16:10
qenseyeah, maybe he wants to upload a better version first16:10
* AlanBell is not too unhappy about the soft focus top right16:10
qenseotherwise we'd have to upload again16:10
nigelbAlanBell: I think he'll be doing more work on it16:10
qensewe'd have to tag again*16:10
nigelbjcastro did threaten that you have to wait for 10 minutes if someone moved, etc16:10
nigelbso if it doesn't turn out clear, kick him haha16:11
qenseActually, Flickr's people tagging thing is pretty neat.16:18
qenseIt works great.16:18
nigelbhehe.  That's why everyone loves flickr :)16:19
qenseThe only problem is that almost no one of my family is on Flickr.16:19
nigelbwhat I like best is the access control16:20
nigelbyou can control he license and visibility of each photo16:20
qenseyeah16:21
qenseIt's done really nicely.16:21
qenseA shame it's using Yahoo!'s horrible account system.16:21
qenseor that it is owned by Yahoo! at all.16:21
nigelbI really don't care who owns what if the service is awesome16:22
qensenigelb: I think I've added you as a friend on Flickr, is that correct?16:22
nigelbqense: yep16:22
qensegood16:22

diwicthanks, and thanks for the email!17:00
diwicAlthough it's the community which should have the real thanks, with all the free hours we/they spend on making Ubuntu better :-)17:01

qenseNice to have someone paid to work on these issues.17:07
