dindaHi ops, have a question about cloaks?03:43
IdleOne!cloak03:47
ubottuWant to hide your IP while connected to freenode? See http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks  More information available in #freenode03:47
IdleOnenope that isn't right03:47
IdleOnejussi Pici ^^03:47
dindamaco sent me over here to inquire about my canonical cloak03:48
dindado you folks set those?03:48
macoi figured since this is where i got my ubuntu cloak fixed up, it might also be the spot for a canonifolk to get their canonical cloak03:49
IdleOne#freenode staff probably can help with that03:49
elkyjussi, nhandler?03:50
elkyIdleOne, no03:50
IdleOnenot sure if the IRCC handles the canonical cloaks03:50
IdleOneelky: ok :/03:50
elkyit's a GC thing, it *must* come through the GCs03:50
dindawhat about ubuntu member cloaks?03:51
rwwthe IRCC are the group contacts for Ubuntu, so people come in here and ask them, then they ask freenode03:52

HardDiskhello. Just wanted to inform you by accident, one of the freenode staffers dropped my nick, his nick is niko, and I had to re-register again12:52
HardDiskthe info of my channel #ubuntu-eg says freenode-staffer now, can you please change it back to me.12:52
HardDiskand check that chanserv hasn't changed?12:53
nikojussi: ping12:53
HardDiskthanks niko :)12:54
HardDiskjust let me know when it's done, got to get back to work.12:56
jussiniko: pong14:28
HardDiskhi jussi, hope you read the above.14:35
jussiHardDisk: yes, I want to talk to niko about it14:35
HardDiskk, cause I'd like this resolved before tomorrow since I'm applying for EMEA ubuntu membership and this sort of messed the irc part up :)14:36
HardDiskthanks in advance.14:36
tsimpsonHardDisk: you should probably read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/CreatingChannels when you get set up, that would help you avoid this situation14:50
HardDisksir15:02
HardDiskI had this channel for 3 years15:02
HardDiskit was niko that deleted my registered nick accidentally15:02
HardDiskand got reset, so it is not my fault.15:03
HardDisktsimpson, your suggestion would make sense if it were a different case entirely.15:04
tsimpsonHardDisk: your nick would only be dropped if it was unused right? or am I missing something?15:04
HardDisknot used?15:05
nikotsimpson: no, i dropped it by mistake15:05
HardDiskhow and I have been here 3 years.15:05
tsimpsonniko: ah, ok15:05
tsimpsonHardDisk: are there any other members of the LoCo active in the channel? you should consider adding another one with +F so ownership would just be transferred15:06
HardDisknot yet15:07
HardDiskwe are just getting the team up this year15:07
HardDiskand in the process of building our loco team.15:07
HardDiskso I can't give access to anyone yet15:07
HardDisknot until we have stability15:07
HardDiskso right now, all I ask is the founder to be renamed back to HardDisk and I will check chanserv for any reset permissions.15:11
HardDiskthanks.15:11
HardDiskmy access to chanserv has been reset also :/15:15
HardDisktsimpson, may I ask you to assist on this kindly. I'm sure you have logs on my previous access to the channel chanserv.  Thanks.15:19
tsimpsonjussi: are you working on it?15:19
jussitsimpson: Im somewhat distracted here15:20
tsimpsonjussi: I can deal with it if you want15:20
jussitsimpson: if you can sort him that would be good15:20
tsimpson:)15:20
HardDiskappreciate it guys.15:20
HardDiskand sorry for the inconvenience.15:20
jussijust make sure ircc gets on the access list please15:20
tsimpsonyep15:20
HardDiskand if you need to add any other bots to the chan please do so.15:21
HardDiskwe already have locobot_315:21
tsimpsonHardDisk: is there an administrator/owner of the egypt launchpad team about?15:27
HardDiskno15:27
HardDiskhe hasn't been around for years15:27
HardDiskI'm the only one admining the irc chan15:28
HardDiskwe have a few new people on board who we are all working together to see later on who will take what responsibilities15:29
HardDiskI don't see what has that got to do with the problem I'm having?15:29
tsimpsonHardDisk: it's just easier if an owner or administrator of the team can say "give X access to the channel"15:30
HardDiskbut I AM the owner15:30
tsimpsonof the LP team?15:30
HardDiskof the iRC channel15:30
HardDiskLP team isn't used15:30
tsimpsonyou'll need the LP team to be an approved LoCo irrc15:31
HardDiskbecause the owner of the launchpad team hasn't been around for years, in our next meeting we will discuss ownership of that15:31
HardDisktsimpson, sir we have been conducting meetings and such and I even recreated our loco team page.15:32
tsimpsonright, it's in progress then, ok15:32
tsimpsonjust give me a couple of minutes15:32
HardDiskok thank you.15:32
HardDiskthat is why I wanted this fixed because tomorrow at my membership discussion when hopefully I become a member, I will open up discussion of taking ownership of the LP as well15:33
HardDiskso that I can filter out inactive people on the list.15:33
HardDiskand then assign tasks and levels to other users.15:33
HardDiskincase you wanted my wiki is wiki.ubuntu.com/SamAzab15:34
HardDiskit links my LP page and other info if required.15:34
tsimpsonHardDisk: you should have access now15:42
HardDiskok great15:43
HardDiskappreciate it :)15:43
HardDiskI see irccouncil is also on it, good15:45
HardDiskcause that wasn't there before15:45
tsimpsonyeah, if you ever need any help with the channel we can act more quickly15:45
HardDiskmy level is different, but doesn't matter, as long as it's enough to change topic and be auto opped by chanserv.15:45
tsimpsonwhy auto-opped?15:45
HardDisk..I don't know15:46
HardDiskit was just always that way, but doesn't matter15:46
HardDiskonly want it so I can be opped and change topic when we need to announce something15:46
tsimpsonwe very much prefer if you only use +o when you need it15:46
HardDiskok15:46
HardDiskI would like to attend more of the irc meetings so I can get more of an understanding how things should be organized, again I want to thank you tsimpson15:47
tsimpsonyou can ask ChanServ for +o any time with '/msg ChanServ op #ubuntu-eg'15:47
HardDiskyes I know the commands.15:48
HardDiskI'll just do it manually then.15:48
HardDiskshukran :)15:48
HardDiskthat's thank you in arabic15:48
tsimpsonHardDisk: would you like an ubottu clone in #ubuntu-eg?15:50
HardDiskplease15:50
HardDiskso I can do it in arabic15:51

ubot4In #ubuntuone, mkarnicki said: ubot4 blah is yuck21:03
mkarnickihi, any op/admin here?21:04
mkarnickiwe could use a learning bot at #ubuntuone , very often we repeat ourselves when a similar question arises21:04
mkarnickiso.. it'd be really cool to have one with possibility to freely edit.21:04
Nafallomkarnicki: looks like ubot4 is already there. just poke jpds (possibly tomorrow) and ask him to set up a DB for the channel.21:06
mkarnickiNafallo: got it. thanks!21:06
jussimkarnicki: its actually easier than that, just suggest new factoids with !factoid-#ubuntuone is <reply>foor bar foo21:53
jussiso something like: !one-#ubuntuone is <reply>Ubuntu One is something really cool!21:53
jussimkarnicki: that will forward them here and an factoid editor can add them21:54
mkarnickiaah, cool21:55
mkarnickiI'll try that, thanks jussi !21:56
jussino probs21:56
mkarnickijussi: i'm quite active on ubuntuone and ubuntu-gsoc. can I apply for editor privileges?21:56
jpdsmkarnicki: You'll have to make the changes jussi suggested to ubottu, as ubot4's DB is a copy which is overwritten every time it syncs.21:57
jussimkarnicki: not at the moment as far as I know, as the privelidges are currently globlal.21:57
mkarnickijpds: aa, you're here :D cool21:58
jussijpds: ahh, I hadnt realised it was setup to copy ubottu.21:58
mkarnickijpds: I see. should I write that <reply> tag also?21:58
jussimkarnicki: so do the suggestion in PM to ubottu21:58
jussimkarnicki: yes, please write the reply tag21:58
mkarnickiwill do :)21:58
mkarnickiok!21:58
mkarnickijussi: jpds: thanks!21:59
jussimkarnicki: if you need anything more bot related, just pop into #ubuntu-bots-team21:59
jussi:)21:59
mkarnickiah! didn't know that channel, thank you jussi :)21:59
mkarnickijussi: last question, as I already landed here ;) do I need later to write that ...-#ubuntuone ending to query the bot?22:02
jussimkarnicki: yes, that specifies it as an #ubuntuone specific factoid22:03
mkarnickiok22:03
mkarnickicurrently ubottu says it's not intelligent xD i'm working on it haha22:03
jussimkarnicki: so just substitute the parts you want to change from the example I gave you22:03
mkarnicki23:02 <mkarnicki> !status-#ubuntuone is <reply>https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOne/Status22:03
mkarnicki23:02 <ubottu> Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)22:04
jussioh its being evil22:04
mkarnicki:D22:04
mkarnickiperhaps some 'learn' command?22:04
jussiI thought we had fixed that bug22:04
mkarnickiaha..22:04
jussimkarnicki: no22:04
mkarnickiI get it.22:04
jussi!status-#ubuntuone is <reply>https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOne/Status22:04
ubottuI'll remember that, jussi22:04
mkarnicki:D22:05
mkarnickiit's like.. i'm not privieged?22:05
mkarnicki*privileged22:05
jussimkarnicki: anyway -> #ubuntu-bots-team ;)22:05
mkarnickiok! thanks jussi !22:05
rwwjussi: yeah, it's been doing that for a while. I've been meaning to file a bug about it but didn't :(22:07
jussirww: yeah, I knew it had been doing it, but thought we had a fix already. guess I was mistaken22:08
mkarnickiI asked that question at ubuntu-bots-team :)22:08
