[06:20] <HarryS> Hello, does the ubuntu team mind if I create and run the channel #ubuntu-gays? I am making it for other Ubuntu users like me who are also LGBT, in hopes for a friendly enviornment.
[12:00] <BasicXP> hello! what do I need to get an IRC cloak?

[12:01] <BasicXP> umhum

[12:02] <jpds> BasicXP: No, we only op ourselves when it is necessary to do so.

[12:13] <marienz> tsimpson: sorry, I cannot put underscores in a cloak
[12:13] <tsimpson> marienz: oh right
[12:13] <malamut> tsimpson: I've add^ https://launchpad.net/~malamut
[12:13] <tsimpson> ZachK_: ^
[12:13] <BasicXP> two questions - does freenode have ssl and what encoding is standart in here?
[12:14] <ZachK_> tsimpson: ok just do ZachK then
[12:14] <jpds> BasicXP: 1) Yes, port 6697.
[12:14] <marienz> BasicXP: ssl: yes, connect to port 7000 or 7070 for that
[12:14] <BasicXP> umm so 6697, 7000 or 7070? :)
[12:14] <tsimpson> ZachK_: do you own the nick? and can you set the account name to it?
[12:14] <marienz> jpds: no, port 6697 isn't ssl here (although it is on a bunch of other networks, so it's an understandable mistake)
[12:14] <ZachK_> tsimpson: one sec
[12:14] <BasicXP> okay. and encoding?
[12:14] <jpds> marienz: True, just realized that.
[12:14] <marienz> BasicXP: varies per channel.
[12:14] <marienz> if in doubt stick to utf-8
[12:14] <ZachK> nope i can't
[12:15] <BasicXP> what about ubuntu channels?
[12:15] <BasicXP> they differ too?
[12:15] <Destine> re-log to see my cloak then.
[12:15] <marienz> Destine: you're already cloaked
[12:15] <tsimpson> marienz: an @ubuntu/member/Malamut cloak for malamut please
[12:15] <BasicXP> yes Destine
[12:15] <marienz> Destine: your own client may not show it, but everyone else does see it
[12:15] <Destine> marienz, oh, thanks!
[12:15] <tsimpson> ZachK: looks like the nick is taken by someone else
[12:16] <ZachK> tsimpson: yup
[12:16] <marienz> and it was used recently, so I cannot drop it for you
[12:16] <tsimpson> you could just go with the slightly less pretty cloak
[12:16] <ZachK> um can you give me a few to think of one?
[12:16] <tsimpson> /ZachK/x-.....
[12:17] <tsimpson> sure
[12:17] <ZachK> k
[12:19] <ZachK> wait...howcome my nick is ZachK without the underscore?
[12:19] <ZachK> it didn't revert back to a random one
[12:19] <vish> ZachK: probably the user is not logged in right now
[12:19] <ZachK> hmm
[12:20] <Tm_T> unique nicks <3
[12:20] <ZachK> ok what's the not pretty hostname in full
[12:20] <ZachK_> because ZachK_ is what i use most everywhere because it's unique
[12:21] <vish> ZachK_: you can use you nick , the cloak will be named differently
[12:21] <vish> your* nick
[12:21] <tsimpson> it'll be @ubuntu/member/ZachK/x-some-random-chars
[12:21] <tsimpson> I think :)
[12:21] <ZachK_> ok
[12:21] <tsimpson> is that good with you?
[12:22] <ZachK_> i've been dealing with ZachK_@zachk_/Zachk18 for some time so yeah i think i can handle it...its the nick people see anyway..not the hostname
[12:23] <tsimpson> marienz: can you set that please
[12:23] <vish> ZachK_: yeah , like for Tm_T his cloak is different bug we know Tm_T ;)
[12:23] <vish> but*
[12:23]  * marienz mashes keyboard
[12:23] <BasicXP> thank you for the cloak! good bye!
[12:24] <tsimpson> anyone I missed?
[12:24] <Tm_T> Destine: ?
[12:24] <Tm_T> oh he got already, ignore me (:
[12:24] <Destine> Tm_T, hi?
[12:25] <Tm_T> Destine: was just making sure you got your cloak (:)
[12:25] <tsimpson> ok :)
[12:25]  * tsimpson goes back into the depths of the intertubes
[12:25]  * Tm_T huggles tsimpson
[12:25] <Destine> Tm_T, thank you.
[12:25] <niko> tsimpson: some days ago legreffier asked for his ubuntu cloak too
[12:26] <tsimpson> let me see if they are about

[12:32] <tsimpson> well done to all the new members
[12:32] <niko> :)
[14:43] <_HardDisk> may I say something? and it's not being spiteful.
[14:43] <Pici> Hmm?
[14:44] <_HardDisk> I was rejected as a member and from what I've seen of other new members, where I've placed more work than them, I don't understand on what basis do I get rejected.
[14:45] <vish> _HardDisk: its kinda off topic here, but you can appeal to the council if you feel you were unfairly rejected
[14:45] <vish> community council
[14:45] <_HardDisk> I've sent a letter of appeal to the council members.  It's been over a week no one replied.
[14:46] <Pici> _HardDisk: Which council did you contact?
[14:46] <_HardDisk> one sec.
[14:48] <HardDisk> community-council@lists.ubuntu.com
[14:49] <HardDisk> that's the email I sent to
[14:49] <HardDisk> it was sent June 2nd
[14:53] <Pici> HardDisk: I just left a message myself to the CC asking that someone try to get back to you.
[14:53] <HardDisk> thanks
[14:54] <HardDisk> appreciate it.
[15:00] <vish> Pici: hmm , didnt know you were at the UDS , could have met you in person :(
[15:00] <Pici> vish: I couldn't make it to this last one, but I've been to the 9.04 and 10.04 ones.
[15:01] <vish> Pici: oh! you werent there?  phew! ;)  i missed meeting ~5 people and thought i didnt meet you as well :)
[15:02] <vish> Pici: weird , i read on some channel that you were there , hence the confusion ;
[15:03] <Pici> vish: It would be news to me ;)
[15:03] <vish> lol!
[15:03] <vish> Pici: heh , must be the classic Pici <-> pitti tab fails
[15:04] <Pici> I haven't gotten his hilights in a while, although I'll probably get a bunch of them now.
[15:30]  * h00k waves to everyone
[15:54] <HardDisk> Pici, thank you btw, I just received an email from Mark Shuttleworth.
[15:54] <Pici> HardDisk: Cool beans.
[15:55] <HardDisk> I think I'm gonna post his message on my ubuntu blog :D
[15:55] <HardDisk> the Egypt Team guys will love this
[15:57] <tsimpson> HardDisk: make sure you ask permission first, it's not polite to post private emails on a public blog
[15:58] <HardDisk> oh of course.
[15:58] <tsimpson> unless it was sent to a public list, of course
[15:58] <HardDisk> and it was sent to me and to the community council
[15:58] <HardDisk> but of course I do know internet etiquette
[15:58] <HardDisk> I will ask permission first.
[16:00] <tsimpson> btw, the cc list is not public
[16:03] <HardDisk> which is why I'll ask permission first.
[16:35] <MTecknology> I'm trying to remember - how do you remove somebody from a channel w/o +o
[16:37] <HardDisk> you ask someone with +o
[16:37] <MTecknology> You can remove w/o being opp'ed - I can't remember how though
[16:38] <Pici> No, you cannot.
[16:38] <MTecknology> Pici: oh.. what can you do w/o being opped?
[16:39] <Pici> MTecknology: Change the topic, (un)mute someone, (de)voice someone
[16:39] <MTecknology> Pici: oh, thanks
[16:40] <Pici> MTecknology: see /msg chanserv help
[20:09] <arand> For ubottu PMs, can one look at channel-specific factoids somehow+
[20:10] <niko> arand: how a bot could know ?
[20:11] <jussi> arand: yes,
[20:11] <jpds> arand: /msg ubottu !hi-#ubuntu-lol
[20:11] <arand> jpds: Ah, thank.
