cjohnstonakgraner: this is how the doctormo updated script outputs security updates:02:43
cjohnston * [USN-936-1] dvipng vulnerability02:43
cjohnston- https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2010-May/001090.html02:43
akgranercjohnston, is that easier for you?02:44
akgranerwe can add it that way as long as it is consistent02:44
cjohnstonits fine.. but to match the way it was/the way the original script worked, i have to remove the [ ]02:45
cjohnstonwhich i have to remove02:45
cjohnstonthats waht i want to get better..02:45
cjohnstonif we can figure that out, the new script will be perfect for integration02:45
akgranerahh ok - you can toss it in an editor and do a replace02:46
akgranerstill an extra step02:46
cjohnstonya02:46
cjohnstontheres only an update or two per week since its security...02:46
cjohnstonso its easier to just manually delete02:46
akgranerok - I'll add that to what the output needs to look like02:46
cjohnstonill email you the script02:47
akgranerthanks!02:47
akgraner:-)02:47

Pendulumakgraner: fyi, I'm working on the Tom's Hardware Review, however, I'm not positive it's best in the ITB section considering it's a 14 page article, not really a blog post15:11
Pendulumakgraner: ITB is done15:58
Pendulum(and feel free to chop a lot of the TOm's Hardware Review stuff I wrote because it's really long)15:59
akgranerPendulum, ok thanks16:48

akgranerinternalkernel, are you working on the summaries for In The Press?19:38
akgranerI added the links to the wiki - but when you get the summaries just drop them in the google doc  - since you an wiki's are not sharing any love19:39
internalkernelin about five minutes I'll have a chance to look at the links again, and then I'll put some up...19:39
internalkernelI'll ping you and you can review - k? gotta kick off these next sessions, then I'll have some time...19:39
akgranerthanks19:40
akgranerI just didn't want to start writing them if you had them19:40
akgranerI'm going to work on the Launchpad section now19:40

ZachK_akgraner: i'm here now20:05
akgranerZachK_, thanks - not ready to proof the whole thing yet but you can read through what is there if ya want to20:05
akgranerhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue19520:06
akgranerThe CamelCase I'll fix a bit later20:06
akgranerbut if you read something that makes absolutely no sense let me know20:07
akgraneroh and we don't change the writers titles even if there is something not right in it - we need it to match the link title20:07
MTecknologyakgraner: looks good20:18
akgranerMTecknology, thanks still working on some summaries but it is getting there :-)20:19
ZachK_akgraner: well just regular text can i not fix it?20:23
akgranersure if it's just minor spelling, grammar, etc stuff20:24
ZachK_hehehe20:24
* ZachK_ loves editing20:24
ZachK_Rick Spencer, Canonical Desktop Team Manager, in this post goes over the highlights of what to expect from the Desktop in the Ubuntu 10.10 cycle. Highlight include:20:24
akgranerZachK_, unless it is a quote from someone20:24
ZachK_that sentence structure is way off20:24
ZachK_akgraner: and of course that i know20:25
akgranerno need to post all the changes here20:25
akgranerif you want to let me know the changes just PM those to me if you have questions20:26
akgranerI am fine with the sentence just not highlight20:27
akgranerbut make your changes and then I'll look over it20:27
akgranermake sure you also look at the original post b/c  some changes change the spirit of the article20:27
internalkernelakgraner: there are two links in "In Other News" regarding landscape and there new release - I assume we prefer the canonical review over the other?20:33
akgranernods20:34
MTecknologyYou guys ever consider using something like this? http://identi.ca/ubuntu-news20:36
akgraneryou mean setting up a group on identi.ca? and stuff20:37
MTecknologyya20:38
akgranerMTecknology, yep20:38
akgranerbut I'll yak more about that after we get this issue published :-)20:39
MTecknologyalrighty20:39
akgraner:-)20:39
akgranerI'll be sending a ton of info to the News Team next week20:40
akgranerand we have a meeting coming up as well - more about all that soon20:40
internalkernelakgraner: so Im summarizing this phoronix article regarding skype... here's my issue, I don't want to put a title out that says - Canonical Pushes Skype into Ubuntu Repository20:55
internalkernelsince that's technically wrong, it's the 3rd party repo Canonical that Skype is in now...20:56
internalkernelBut that's Phoronix's title...20:56
cjohnstonakgraner: few things... might be starting too early.. but still... should intel be Intel in xorg-xserver? new ubuntu members Asia Oceania.. is it accounted or announced?20:56
internalkerneland every other article I've come across references Phoronix...20:56
internalkernelshall I rephrase that title?20:56
akgranercjohnston, yeah I haven't fixed that yet and I need to add the other new members as well20:58
akgranerhold off on the proofing General Community News for just a few20:58
akgranerplease20:58
akgranerand yes it should be Intel20:59
akgranerinternalkernel, me looks20:59
cjohnstonI was looking at the wiki, not the doc ;-)20:59
internalkernelk...20:59
internalkernelI would expect to get some flack for a discrepancy like that... it's a big difference between ubuntu repos (FOSS) and Canonical 3rd party20:59
internalkernelMay perhaps I can just point out the difference in the summary?21:00
akgranercjohnston, yep  - stuck some things in there21:00
akgranerinternalkernel, if it is not in the article - we don't add to the content21:00
internalkernelthat's what I was figuring...21:01
internalkernelhmmrphh21:01
akgraneryeah I know21:01
nhandlerMTecknology: There is @ubuntunews which pulls in the UWN when it gets posted on the fridge21:01
akgranernhandler, I think MTecknology was talking about for the team to use to send info etc- but I could be wrong21:02
nhandlerakgraner: Ah, could be. I only skimmed the backlog21:02
akgranerinternalkernel, I can add add an editors note  - but lets get all the content summarized and proofed they look at stuff like that21:03
akgranerinternalkernel, just make a note to your self or at the bottom of the google doc and we can discuss in a few  ok?21:03
akgranerI have a few more links to drop in as well21:04
internalkernelsounds good, just thought I'd throw it out there... I finished the first two summaries "in Other News" working on Puppet now... if anyone wants to proof...21:04
akgranerfreaking useless arm - sorry it's such a long day folks - is you need to leave just let me know I'll get it done21:05
akgraneralright I'll drop them in the wiki21:05
akgraneralso we don't put hyperlinks into articles instead where the hyperlink should go use [1] etc and add the link below the article but before the main link to the article like [1] - hyperlink URL21:08
internalkernelgot it, I see what you did... thanks21:11
MTecknologynhandler: yup- that's what i was thinking21:15
akgranerI'll send out reminders and an agenda this week for the upcoming meeting :-) MTecknology I'll add that to the agenda but if you get it and it's not there - just add it21:18
akgraner:-D21:18
MTecknologyyou make me feel like ubuntu-news is run on pure happy21:19
akgranerMTecknology, it isn't ? :-P21:22
akgraneranyone have a sec to see if OMG!Ubuntu, or Full Circle had a podcast last week21:22
akgranerI already have ubuntu-UK podcast in there21:23

nhandlerLet me find the post21:27
ZachK_nhandler: ah you speak at last21:28

nhandlerakgraner: http://twitter.com/omgubuntu/status/1482944234821:30
akgranerthanks nhandler  - I'll email them and ask for a heads up when they start back - thanks21:34
MTecknologySolarisBoy: I was just searching for easy - I know I could configure it so each database just makes a log that the other system picks up - but drdb sounds like it could make things more efficient22:08
MTecknologysorry - wrong channel22:09
akgranerinternalkernel, what are you working on now?22:13
