[03:53] Pendulum: I figured I'd touch base before the holiday weekend... do we have an interview for FCM this month? [03:53] I'm wondering if we always want to have one in the queue so we don't have to worry so much about people getting back to us on time [08:09] the /topic in here and #ubuntu-women says the last meeting date, btw [08:19] Heeey. [08:20] pleia2: that would be a good idea, yes === rww is now known as Mysteron === Mysteron is now known as rww === valorie is now known as PRIDE [20:09] tis rare anymore I read the UW planet, just looked now , it's very un ubuntu related and not really technical posted [20:25] we don't have any techincal requirements on our planet [20:25] pleia2: aye I know, just 7 in a row from one person [20:25] neither does the main ubuntu planet, but the culture is a bit different there [20:25] nothng about ubuntu [20:25] we don't have an ubuntu requirement either, just that they use ubuntu [20:26] pleia2: aye my blog is only on the planet, but my reason for that is I don't believe in seperate planets [20:26] pleia2: aye and they don't have to be members [20:26] yeah [20:26] I do get it, just rather disapointing to read as well [20:26] /blog_uwp Ubuntu Rocks! UWP Rocks N' Rolls! >/body> [20:26] oops s/>/ right.... [20:26] I think it's quite refreshing :) [20:26] pleia2: pros and cons for both I do get it [20:27] just not really my cuppa tea either [20:27] and was looking for information for the workshop/talk I'm giving [20:27] we can talk about changing our policy, but I quite like the plants actually being a glimpse into lives like the ubuntu planet claims to be (but isn't) [20:27] I can post about how Ubuntu helped me not to trash the new BBQ I am trying to assemble (on little break now) [20:27] planets [20:28] pleia2: nah there is no need, just waffling [20:28] ok :) [20:28] trying to find and link resouces [20:29] pleia2: just had hope they'd a bit more technical/ubuntu related than what's there, it's just a bit disapointing also [20:30] ah [20:31] pleia2: imo just disapointing to see an planet on women - not really technical, it's extremely the oposite [20:31] I believe some less technical post are refreshing and can still be used as a resource [20:31] pleia2: I did love your pink wii [20:31] and showed it to my sister, made her day [20:31] IdleOne: they're all nearly non technical. [20:31] at the same time it would be nice to see more tech posts from women. [20:31] I never write about technical stuff :-( [20:31] but anywho .... back to UWN [20:32] czajkowski: I guess I just see it as getting people to realize that *normal* people use linux too, we've already reached out to all the geeky girls in the world, time to show that not everyone is a supergeek and we have regular lives too [20:32] and you don't need to be supertechnical to be part of the community, or use ubuntu [20:32] pleia2: yup I agree totally, but now we seem to be going to the other extreme, [20:32] there are plenty of other sites which showcase geeky women [20:32] I know we cant please everyone [20:33] pleia2: don't mind me I've just spent hrs in a hospital and now researching stuff so it's just jumping out [20:43] that doesn't sound fun :\ [20:43] ah mum is being admitted in for an op tomorrow. [20:44] now resarching stuff on Ubuntu women- women in tehnology for my talk in 2 wks time in Leeds in UK [20:44] czajkowski: have you seen http://planeteria.org/wfs/ ? [20:45] yeah, that's the one I was just looking up the url for, thanks maco :) [20:45] maco: ahh now that;s what I'm looking for [20:45] cheers [20:45] * czajkowski gets the RSS feed [20:45] maco: Thanks [20:45] maco: all exams done? [20:48] nah [20:48] well exams yeah [20:48] but not projects [20:49] what's left on the cards?
