jonolater, pal01:12
doctormojono: You need a secretary, man I put my CV forward for the position :-D02:22
doctormojono: I feel I should put myself in your work items so I'm not dead to you, maybe get a call once a month for an update on things.02:23
jonodoctormo, heh, you are not dead to me02:26
jonobut the community is a pretty big place :)02:26
doctormoOh vast, you won't believe how mind bogglingly large it is, I mean you might think your bingo club is big, but that's just peanuts to the ubuntu community.02:36
doctormojono: I hope you saw my wallpaper and the H2G2 quote in it02:36
doctormobbs02:56
doctormoBack :-)04:19
dpmmorning all06:07
doctormohello06:07
nigelbmorning dpm06:13
nigelbhello doctormo :)06:13
doctormonigelb: I wanted to improve my background a little06:13
nigelbdoctormo: desktop background?06:13
dpmhey nigelb :)06:14
dpmhi doctormo06:14
nigelbdpm: you're early today :)06:21
dpmnigelb, yeah, I've got a couple of things on my plate and I'll be away for an hour or so later on :)06:22
czajkowskialoha06:35
doctormonigelb: I was updating this: http://doctormo.deviantart.com/art/Ubuntu-Circuit-169288271 I thought I showed you yesterday morning?06:43
doctormoczajkowski: How's your mum?06:43
czajkowskigrand sleeping I hope, anasthetics don't agree with her at all06:45
doctormoczajkowski: I hope everything goes well, I know my body doesn't really like anasthetics.06:47
czajkowskiaye she'll hopefully be let hope some time this weekend depending on her blood pressure.  sHe has very high blood pressure usually but it;s a bit low atm06:49
dpmhey czajkowski06:55
czajkowskidpm: morning06:56
dpmnigelb, out of interest, do you use a localized system?06:56
dpmi.e. not English?06:56
czajkowskidpm: just a question someone was asking and I'd not a clue, when translators translate a wiki page, the title of the page isn't translated is it? as in the URL part ?06:57
dpmczajkowski, exactly, it is not translated, so that the translated pages are subpages of the original. I.e. OriginalPage and OriginalPage/Translation (where "Translation" is a 2 or 3 letter code representing the language)06:58
dpme.g. OriginalPage/ga for the Irish translation06:59
czajkowskiahhh I see06:59
czajkowskidpm: thanks for explaining06:59
dpmno worries :)07:00
nigelbdpm: nope, english07:02
nigelbdoctormo: the gnu meets oss?07:02
nigelbczajkowski: I appreciate the fact that we have a CoC most when I see communities that don't07:02
doctormonigelb: Ah well, that's a trick of the light :-D07:03
nigelbdoctormo: you hadn't shown me that one, and it is beautiful :)07:03
czajkowskiright off to Dublin07:04
nigelbczajkowski: have a nice trip :)07:04
czajkowskicatch folks around 5pm my time again . Going to be a long day07:04
dpmnigelb, thanks. Nevertheless, do you happen to know anyone using Ubuntu in Punjabi, by any chance? I'm getting in touch with translation teams and it seems that the Punjabi one is no longer active (the team owner stopped using LP and that was it)07:04
czajkowskijob interview part III07:04
dpmczajkowski, have a good trip and good luck!07:05
nigelbdpm: ouch, I don't know anyone using a localized version here.  I can hunt around on the mailing list if you want me to07:05
nigelb(also, I can't read punjabi btw)07:05
dpmnigelb, no, don't worry, thanks. I'll try to contact the few members of the team who've got a visible contact address07:06
nigelb:)07:08
dpmnigelb, would you say localized Ubuntu is not so popular in India, or only in your region? (I know India is huge and that I cannot ask you for all languages - I'm just trying to get a rough impression here :)07:10
nigelbdpm: well, we learn about computers in english, so its naturally assumed that people who first use ubuntu would like to use ubuntu in english07:12
dpmoh right07:12
nigelbbut the advantage of having it localized is when its beign adopted by say state governments when they might want to have the interface in the official language for ease of transition, etc07:12
dpmok, thanks for the info nigelb :)07:14
nigelbdpm: no problem :)07:15
dholbachgood morning07:19

akgranernah - I got some sleep :-)  Just started my day early07:36
dholbachvery early, eh? :)07:37
akgraneryeppers - it's 0230 here07:37
dholbachI'm just not hard-core enough for this community07:38
dholbachgot up a bit before 8 :)07:38
nigelbdholbach: don't worry, akgraner has a bad sleep pattern ;)07:49
* nigelb runs07:49
akgranernigelb, not bad - just unique - I get 8 hours of sleep in a 24 hour period :-)07:49
nigelbakgraner: right, every half our you sleep for 10 minutes :p07:50
akgranernigelb, :-P07:51
akgranerpower naps rule! just sayin'07:51
dholbachmaybe I'm starting my day even slower today - I just made coffee and forgot the coffee powder08:06
akgranerdholbach, it's Tuesday  - you can't have a case of the Monday's on a Tuesday :-) (however that sounds like something I would do, nice to know I am in good company)08:06
dholbachusually I smell the coffee when it's ready, it didn't even surprise me today that the coffee did not smell coffee like - man, I hope I wake up quickly :)08:08
nigelbhaha08:12
dholbachwe're at #599655 in LP already08:16
dholbachhow long until we hit 600000?08:16
jussi:D08:16
* jussi goes to file 345 bugs :D08:16
nigelbdholbach: my guess is it will take max of 1 week08:27
* nigelb goes to check daily patterns08:28
nigelbdholbach: ok, so I was talking at the Debian side about sponsorship in Debian08:55
nigelbI'm wondering if we can have something there for ubuntu developers who want to upload to Debian08:56
nigelb(actually Rhonda just suggested it to me)08:56
nigelbI'm out for lunch, we'll continue the conversation when I'm back :)08:56
dholbachhola randa_09:25
randa_hi dholbach09:25
dholbachnigelb: there's the debian mentors already?09:25
dholbachnigelb: it's great if you want to improve it and collaborate with Debian people to make it better, but I'm afraid I'm totally maxed out and in too many concurrent discussions right now09:26
dholbachI'm totally behind on emails and still got loads of work items to go through09:27
jussiwhat? dholbach is human? o.O09:27
dholbachthe problem is: we're never short of good ideas09:28
dholbachalthough nigelb's and Rhonda's idea is indeed very good09:29
dholbachnigelb: I'm happy to give my feedback at some stage, but I can't be leading this effort too09:35
nigelbdholbach: ok, I'm back.  I can take it forward in a limited manner till my laptop is back and then I can work with rhonda on getting a system for ubuntu developers to find sponsorship faster09:42
dholbachnigelb: great, let me know how it goes09:42
nigelbdebian-mentors is sadly not as great as our own sponsoring system - its a bit tough to find an actual sponsor09:42
dpmakgraner, the link you've just sent me to share for the interview with the Spanish translation team is for me to review or just for confirmation?09:45
akgranerconfirmation :-)  you should have the actual email showing up in your inbox any second now...09:47
akgranerjust want to CC you on everything incase I get hit by a bus :-)09:47
dpmakgraner, great, thanks! :-)09:51

jonojcastro, a lot of this you could have cut out - it is from the last UDS16:29
jonobut I can do that16:29
jcastroyeah so that was my question16:29
jcastrofor like travel and stuff, we don't have any of that info16:29
jcastroso I was just placeholding16:29
jcastroso I figured that would show what the page would look like better than making up a hotel, etc.16:29
jcastroalso, is this page in /addition/ to the wiki or will it replace it? I wasn't sure if I was supposed to link back to the more detailed stuff on the wiki.16:30
jcastroI can't think of a way to explain like remote IRC without it sounding too complicated for what I think the site should be16:30
* jcastro rings the bell16:42
jcastroone more WI outta there!16:42
jonojcastro, :)16:43
jcastrodholbach: I need to chat about dailies for about 5 minutes if you have a chance today16:44

popeyjono: what was the name of the wordpress theme people you said you used on a recent shotofjaq?19:13
jcastrodoctormo: I tried the nook one at B&N and it was pretty fail19:13
doctormojcastro: My sisters like Twilight, I've started being cautious of what my sisters like these days :-P19:14

jonopopey, woothemes.com19:18

jonooffer19:21
popeydo they do custom work?19:21
jonopopey, not sure19:21
popeywill contact them19:21
jonoI usually take a theme and hack it myself with firebug19:21
popeyjono: do they do some kind of kickback / referral if I mention your name?19:44
jonopopey, I don't think so19:45
jonothanks for the consideration though :-)19:45
popeynp19:45
jcastropleia2: thanks for your feedback, I'll incorporate that19:56
pleia2jcastro: sure thing19:57
pleia2just proposed the multi-language thing to the rest of -backstage, but it should be ok I think as long as we're clear about language when it's a non-english class and we have someone we can work with for scheduling19:57
jcastroI'll just reword the bit so that it's more "talk to the learning team" too19:59
* pleia2 nods19:59
