| paultag | howdy pleia2 | 01:51 |
|---|---|---|
| pleia2 | hey | 01:51 |
| paultag | So. | 01:52 |
| pleia2 | so here's the spec for the -manual thing: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/ubuntu-support-and-learning-center | 01:52 |
| pleia2 | gah, kubuntu link | 01:52 |
| pleia2 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-support-and-learning-center | 01:52 |
| pleia2 | all the content by learning, manual and doc is cc-by-sa, so you're perfectly welcome to pull it all into your project instead | 01:52 |
| paultag | Humm | 01:53 |
| pleia2 | but since the -manual folks are pushing hard on this support and learning center, I would suggest working with them if possible :) | 01:53 |
| paultag | I don't like leaching | 01:53 |
| * pleia2 digs up blueprint | 01:53 | |
| paultag | the thing is that we have two different ideas | 01:53 |
| paultag | I want to pull as much academic work ( not all manuals and how to use ubuntu ), and I want to make it local | 01:53 |
| pleia2 | ah | 01:53 |
| paultag | pleia2, see, I'd like to make nice hooks for them to pull off me, and I'd love a hook for me to pull from them | 01:54 |
| pleia2 | I believe the backend for us will still be bzr | 01:54 |
| paultag | Ahh | 01:54 |
| pleia2 | but the technical stuff is still being hashed out | 01:54 |
| paultag | pleia2, I have a really cool upload system | 01:54 |
| pleia2 | we have a whole fun blueprint: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/community-m-documentation-teams-collaboration | 01:54 |
| pleia2 | manual team is doing much of the site work, doctormo and learning is doing ease-of-use stuff, docs team is just going to chug along | 01:55 |
| paultag | pleia2, I'd love to collaborate, but I don't think we are trying to do the same thing exactly | 01:55 |
| pleia2 | alright :) | 01:55 |
| pleia2 | yeah, the aim here really is ubuntu exclusive | 01:56 |
| paultag | OK, cool | 01:56 |
| paultag | then we can get along | 01:56 |
| paultag | :) | 01:56 |
| paultag | pleia2, I'll be sure to document my API and how to get all the data off the server | 01:56 |
| pleia2 | but if your uploader is clever, I'm sure manual folks would be interested in your tech | 01:56 |
| pleia2 | cool | 01:56 |
| paultag | pleia2, it's based kinda on dput, it works in almost the same way | 01:57 |
| pleia2 | ah, gotcha | 01:57 |
| paultag | and you need a gpg key sign to upload :D | 01:57 |
| pleia2 | neat | 01:57 |
| pleia2 | so there is like a keyring for contributors? | 01:58 |
| paultag | yeah :) | 01:58 |
| paultag | and also MySQL to double check | 01:58 |
| * pleia2 nods | 01:58 | |
| paultag | it has to both be in the keyring and active in the MySQL backend | 01:58 |
| paultag | it's pretty kickass. It's super scalable | 01:58 |
| paultag | pleia2, alright. Well let me finish up where I was going with it, and I'll offer up whatever I can :) | 01:58 |
| pleia2 | great! :) | 01:59 |
| pleia2 | looking forward to seeing it | 01:59 |
| paultag | thanks pleia2, you rock | 01:59 |
| paultag | pleia2, :) | 01:59 |
| pleia2 | you too | 01:59 |
| pleia2 | heading out in a few minutes to meet up with a local guy who is deploying linux at local public schools | 02:00 |
| paultag | nice :) | 02:00 |
| pleia2 | it's really hard to do this in the US, but he's managed to be quite successful, has done it in 4 or 5 schools already | 02:00 |
| pleia2 | he just sucks at documenting and publicity, so he's asked me for help :) | 02:01 |
| paultag | \o/ | 02:01 |
| pleia2 | yeah, I'm excited | 02:01 |
| paultag | pleia2, blog about how it goes! :) | 02:01 |
| pleia2 | I will be a blogging machine! :) | 02:01 |
| paultag | :) | 02:01 |
| pleia2 | it'll be cool to be promoting and telling people about a project that's already so successful | 02:02 |
| paultag | hell yeah | 02:04 |
