[14:15] <AlanBell> who runs planet.ubuntu-women.org?
[14:17] <elky> AlanBell, it's on canonical hardware afaik
[14:18] <AlanBell> just the 35% width on the logo makes it look dreadfully squished on a big monitor
[14:19] <elky> AlanBell, it's a squished logo, i'm not sure the monitor size has anything to do with that.
[14:19] <AlanBell> it is 35% of the width of the container, if the browser window is wide it grows
[14:20] <AlanBell> the height of the image is 80% of the top banner thing, which is fixed
[14:20] <AlanBell> if you just remove the width with firebug the browser sorts out the aspect ratio
[14:22] <AlanBell> maybe one to sort out with the new logo
[14:25] <elky> ah. it must be assuming a really narrow ratio then
[14:26] <AlanBell> it probably looks about right at a 1024 width browser. I just don't like bastard font sizes. (yes, that is the correct technical term)
[17:15] <pleia2> AlanBell: yeah, the planet has always been like that, should probably add redesigning that to the scope of our website project
[17:15] <pleia2> have to submit an rt ticket for it though (we don't have access to changing the theme)
[17:16] <AlanBell> meh, don't worry about it then
[17:16] <AlanBell> but yes, add to the scope
[17:16] <AlanBell> and feel free to chuck me tasks on that
[17:31] <pleia2> akgraner: are you going to send out a "these people are up for leadership positions, add testimonals now" message?
[17:32]  * nigelb is waiting for pokes to do that
[17:49] <akgraner> pleia2, yep was going todo that today...
[19:52] <Pendulum> I'm not sure anyone's brought this up here, but we're looking for people to be instructors for the next Ubuntu User Day (which will be June 5, hours TBA)
[19:53] <czajkowski> Pendulum: cool
[20:05] <issyl0> Hi.
[20:05] <issyl0> Pendulum: cool
[20:06] <czajkowski> issyl0: hows things?
[20:06] <Pendulum> issyl0: not seen you around for a while
[20:07] <issyl0> Pendulum: no, I know, I'm sorry.
[20:07]  * issyl0 has been hopelessly busy with school etc.
[20:07] <issyl0> czajkowski: things are reasonably good.
[20:07] <issyl0> Oh and the weather.
[20:07] <issyl0> Yourselves?
[20:10] <Pendulum> i'm procrastinating on packing and cleaning :)
[20:10] <JanC> I guess you're close to exams at school?
[20:10]  * czajkowski loves the weather 
[20:11] <czajkowski> issyl0: any plans for the summer?
[20:11] <issyl0> JanC: languages (Spanish and German) speaking exams soon, plus Science exams at the end of June and other things.
[20:11] <czajkowski> should keep you busy
[20:11] <JanC> issyl0: good luck with all of that!  ☺
[20:11] <JanC> czajkowski: we just got 2 days of nice weather in .be, starting tomorrow it will probably rain again  ;)
[20:11] <issyl0> czajkowski: er, nope.  Well, a week's holiday in between another 5 weeks of... relaxation?  Never. :P
[20:12] <czajkowski> sounds nice
[20:12] <issyl0> czajkowski: how about you? don't suppose you're planning a summer trip to UK are you?
[20:12] <issyl0> JanC: thanks!
[20:12] <Pendulum> issyl0: do you understand the word "relaxation"?
[20:12] <czajkowski> issyl0: did you ever get work placement sorted?
[20:12] <czajkowski> issyl0: not sure re UK to be honest
[20:12] <czajkowski> all depends on work
[20:13] <issyl0> czajkowski: I did, yes.  Though that's in September, not the summer holidays.
[20:13] <issyl0> Pendulum: yes, I do.  Relaxation = non-school work. ;)
[20:13] <issyl0> Teeheee
[20:13] <czajkowski> issyl0: oh where?
[20:13] <issyl0> czajkowski: http://www.siriusit.co.uk/
[20:14]  * issyl0 wonders if we should move non-project discussion to #u-w ?
[20:14] <czajkowski> hah I know them
[20:14] <czajkowski> :D
[20:14] <issyl0> czajkowski: oh/
[20:14] <issyl0> czajkowski: great!
[20:14] <issyl0> czajkowski: how wehn where why?
[20:14] <czajkowski> :)
[20:14] <czajkowski> remember I was in weybridge recently :)
[20:15]  * issyl0 thinks... oh yes!
[20:15] <czajkowski> such pretty offices
[20:15] <issyl0> czajkowski: that's ages ago, comparitive to my memory :P
[20:15] <issyl0> czajkowski: indeed :D
[20:15] <issyl0> czajkowski: why did you go there?
[20:16] <issyl0> Just out of itnerest.
[20:20] <czajkowski> to meet some folks and have a wee chat
[20:23] <czajkowski> hypatia: ping
[20:23] <hypatia> pong!
[20:24] <czajkowski> hypatia: hello there, how's life in Canada these days, just noticed your wiki page up for leadership, just wanted to know if you're still going ahead so I an leave a testimonial
[20:24] <issyl0> czajkowski: cool
[20:25] <hypatia> czajkowski: i am going to, i know my application is very incomplete so far - i've been on the road a bunch
[20:26] <hypatia> will tidy it up this evening :)
[20:26] <hypatia> i'm actually in texas right now :)
[20:26] <czajkowski> hypatia: thats a bbit far away from Canda
[20:27] <czajkowski> what are you at?
[20:27] <hypatia> work
[20:27] <hypatia> my main customer is down here
[20:27] <czajkowski> hypatia: be sure to poke me once you'e done with application
[20:27] <hypatia> so i'm doing some onsite
[20:27] <czajkowski> nice
[20:27] <hypatia> czajkowski: will do
[20:33] <akgraner> email sent to the list - Testimonial Phase is now underway!  Good Luck to hypatia, pleia2, elky and Pendulum!
[20:34] <pleia2> thanks akgraner :) and thanks czajkowski!
[20:35] <czajkowski> pleia2: ;)
[20:45] <Pendulum> czajkowski: you tweet the cutest baby pictures
[20:45] <czajkowski> they were done on saturday
[20:46] <czajkowski> Caoimhe is getting sooo cute
[21:07] <JanC> """Caoimhe (pronounced approximately KWEE-və  or KEE-və) is an Irish Gaelic given name derived from the Gaelic caomh, meaning beautiful, gentle or precious. It is from the same root as the Irish name Kevin. Its English equivalent is Kevina (pronounced ke-VEE-nə)."""
[21:07] <JanC> with such a name, she must be cute  ;)
[21:08] <czajkowski> heh
[21:08] <czajkowski> she is
[21:08] <czajkowski> some irish names have lovely meanings
[21:09] <czajkowski> her sister is Aisling - Ash Ling which is dream in irish
[21:10] <AlanBell> my kids middle names are Aoife, Catriona and Cormac
[21:10] <issyl0> Wow.
[21:10] <MichelleQ1> My second child is Ainsley
[21:10] <issyl0> My name is boring in comparison!
[21:11] <czajkowski> myself and sister have non irish names as my dad is english and cannot pronounce irish names correctly without a lot of effort
[21:11] <AlanBell> there is a reason they are middle names!
[21:11] <issyl0> AlanBell: hehe
[21:12] <MichelleQ1> My kids have family names as middle names - Quinn's middle name is my maiden name
[21:13] <czajkowski> I've my grans and my sister has my great grans first name
[21:15] <MichelleQ1> family names are such nice things to give to a child - assuming it isn't something completely bizarre.
[21:17] <MichelleQ1> I'd love to take Q to Ireland, to show him where his name comes from.  He hasn't asked yet, but I expect it won't be too many more years.
[21:17] <MarkDude> I have Jorma - since my parents were dreamers, it is Native American
[21:17] <MichelleQ1> MarkDude: that's pretty cool.  Pronounced the way it's spelled?
[21:18] <czajkowski> MichelleQ1: nice
[21:18] <MarkDude> Yep, the same spelling can be pronounced as a Y by some
[21:20] <MarkDude> My parents used to tease me and say that if they were slightly more Hippie, they would have given me the 1st name of River
[21:20]  * issyl0 has boring names compared to you lot :P
[21:21] <issyl0> Lol
[21:21] <czajkowski> issyl0: it's not all it's cracked up to be, since I was tiny I've had to explain my name over here
[21:22] <issyl0> czajkowski: I have to spell my first name all the time.
[21:22] <AlanBell> http://famouspoetsandpoems.com/poets/t__s__eliot/poems/15121
[21:23] <issyl0> Who was the poet that wrote "Cats Sleep Anywhere"?  I used to know that poem off by heart when I was about 6.  As did I know all the words according to the pictures on each page of "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" when I was still in nappies, and I could count up to ten in French when I was three.  Good grief. :P
[21:23] <issyl0> Apparently... ;)
[21:25] <AlanBell> Eleanor Farjeon
[21:26] <pleia2> ssh dev
[21:26] <pleia2> gah
[21:26] <MichelleQ1> issyl0: You'd be surprised at how many times I've had to spell "Hall" for people.
[21:26] <AlanBell> and I don't find the rest of that hard to believe
[21:26] <pleia2> window_foucs--
[21:26] <pleia2> focus too
[21:26] <issyl0> Oh yes.
[21:26] <issyl0> pleia2: fail?
[21:26] <pleia2> issyl0: a bit :)
[21:26] <issyl0> :)
[21:26] <MichelleQ1> My favorite was "Dear Mrs. Hell,"
[21:26] <issyl0> MichelleQ1: lovely ;)
[21:26] <jussi> hehe
[21:27] <pleia2> about 5% of recruiters who email me call me Mr. Krumbach
[21:27] <issyl0> AlanBell: :)
[21:27] <issyl0> pleia2: do you sound unusally manly?
[21:27] <issyl0> unusually*
[21:27] <pleia2> issyl0: no, they're just tech recruiters and their templates always use Mr.
[21:27] <czajkowski> lol
[21:27]  * czajkowski hugs pleia2 
[21:27] <issyl0> That wasn't meant in a nasty way :)
[21:27] <MichelleQ1> we usually have a rousing Abbott and Costello act when recruiters call ehre.
[21:27] <pleia2> :)
[21:28] <MichelleQ1> here, even
[21:28]  * pleia2 hugs
[21:28] <pleia2> makes them easy to weed out, if they can't even go to the trouble of reading my first name and adjusting the template they *really* aren't worth my time ;)
[21:29] <issyl0> That's a good system
[21:29] <MichelleQ1> Mike & I both have resumes in public arenas - and so we will randomly get a phone call for one or the other of us, and usually answered by the other of us, so we get a lot of really interesting gender-oriented hesitation
[21:29] <issyl0> pleia2: what do you do again?
[21:29] <pleia2> issyl0: linux sysadmin
[21:29] <issyl0> pleia2: oh yes.
[21:30] <issyl0> Btw, if anyone (preferably in the UK) wants any (remote) data entry/proofreading doing -> http://issyl0.co.uk/work.php :P
[21:30] <issyl0> I didn't just say that, honest.  ^_^
[21:30]  * issyl0 runs
[21:30] <issyl0> :P
[21:32] <issyl0> Oh dear, everything has gone quiet.
