czajkowskisommer: would you know who I could talk to regarding getting a wiki page convered to a pdf and adding to the doucment team resources16:25
sommerczajkowski: not 100% sure, is it something that you'd want to automatically recreated the pdf after edits?16:37

czajkowskilast action item16:37
sommerczajkowski: I'd guess you'd have to convert the page to docbook, latex, or another format then create the pdf16:40
czajkowskihmm I've no experience in that16:41

ubuntujenkinsczajkowski: no problem, it was easy, once we get a layout you like. I think writing a script to convert the wiki to latex should be easy enough. No point people translating twice21:06
czajkowskiubuntujenkins: those links don't seem to work though..21:06
ubuntujenkinsczajkowski: the did when i posted them try http://ubuntuone.com/p/8DQ/ and http://ubuntuone.com/p/8Dp/21:07

paultagsec -- downloading21:16
paultagubuntujenkins: looks like LaTeX -- any chance you can push the .tex to LP so we can merge it into our +junk branch?21:17
paultagubuntujenkins: looks great, btw21:17
ubuntujenkinsI can indeed push it. any suggestions on how you want the layout? which branch would you like it in?21:18

ubuntujenkinsthe translators have not translated LoCoCouncil/LoCoTeamsBestPracticesandGuidelines, kinda makes the file incomplete21:36
czajkowskiubuntujenkins: what do you mean?21:53
