pleia2sadness03:28
paultaghey pleia2 :)03:28
pleia2hey paultag :)03:28
paultagGet this, the numpad won't work03:28
paultagso the only way it works is if I press the hangup / power button03:28
pleia2nice03:29
paultagmy best guess is that it's a CPU interupt, and it must read03:29
paultagso to dial out I have to hit ( and hold ) power and then hit dial twice03:29
pleia2hehe03:29
paultagpleia2: so, how are you?03:29
pleia2how long did it take you to figure that out?03:29
paultagpleia2: about 45 minutes or so03:29
pleia2I'm good, my inbox is miraculously down to *4* emails!03:29
pleia2hehe03:29
paultagpleia2: and I had no ride back ( and I needed to call my sister! )03:29
pleia2aww03:29
paultagpleia2: w00t!!! I just thinned down to 2 by making myself an application03:30
paultagpleia2: I now tell people to not email, but rather to queue me :)03:30
pleia2hah03:30
pleia2I do quite like email03:30
paultagpleia2: http://queue.paultags.com/ <-- wrote this this morning because I did not want to write more frik'n website filler03:31
paultagpleia2: it registers the item for my queue, and email notifies me. I get the email and mark the email read. No more annoying unread email / star email issues :D03:31
pleia2must resist temptation to abuse03:31
paultagpleia2: it can ban by IP / IP Range >:D03:31
pleia2lol03:31
pleia2that's neat03:32
pleia2people in the california channel were just talking about todo lists this morning03:32
paultagpleia2: I'll foss and publish it when it's done. It has some really nice features :)03:32
paultagpleia2: oh?03:32
pleia2nhaines told us about http://www.tiddlywiki.com/ which is pretty neato03:32
paultagnice :)03:33
paultagoh so pleia2, doctormo refered to the UBT as the Ubuntu Mafia03:39
pleia2haha, I am not sure what to make of that :)03:39
paultagpleia2: because of the amount of members on the team in big places / councils03:39
pleia2we haven't killed anyone lately...03:40
pleia2oh that03:40
paultagnot that they've found03:40
pleia2:)03:40
paultagpleia2: never really thought about it, but we do have a lot of notable members :D03:40
pleia2it's actually quite a nice story, it all happened quite organically03:41
paultagsure is pleia203:41
pleia2it wasn't like big people were particularly drawn to it, most of them grew up with the team03:41
paultag+1 :D03:41
macoubt?03:42
macob=bayarea?03:42
pleia2beginners team03:42
paultagmaco: ubuntu beginners team, w00t w00t!03:43
macoahh03:43
duanedesign:)03:44
paultagmaco: we're like a mafia, according to doctormo03:44
paultagmaco: pleia2, duanedesign here are both UBT :)03:45
paultagmaco: same was nigelb03:45
paultagddecator: too :)03:45
paultagand nhandler <303:45
paultagoh yes, and cjohnston for a while03:45
pleia2but he's a quitter ;P03:45
paultagwow, there are a lot of UBT folks here03:45
paultagpleia2: yeah >:(03:45
paultagpleia2: same with nigelb03:45
pleia2the team does have pretty high expectations03:46
paultagpleia2: mm, that's true.03:46
duanedesigntrue pleia203:46
duanedesigni hope the email isent out will spur a discussion as to best to accomplish those goals03:46
doctormopleia2: Well paultag says I said it was like the maffia, what I meant was more like the pidgins from animaniacs.03:47
pleia2doctormo: hahaha03:47
paultagwow, there are a lot of UBT folks herehaha03:47
doctormopaultag: release early release often, get your todo'er code into launchpad stat03:47
paultagdoctormo: lp? fsck that, github! :)03:48
doctormopaultag: Ah, your no fun, put it in github and then set it up to sync to launchpad :-P03:48
pleia2+103:48
paultagdoctormo: can it do that?03:48
doctormoThe problem with github is that's it's closed sourced :-/ boo.03:48
paultag+1 doctormo03:48
paultagbut I love git so much03:49
pleia2wow really?03:49
paultagpleia2: yeah it really ticked me off03:49
pleia2first the debian font is proprietary, then github is closed source, my world is a mess this week!03:49
paultagpleia2: there are bits that are f/oss, but not much03:49
duanedesignlol03:49
paultagdoctormo: can you really sync the two?03:49
pleia2*and* I contributed docmentation to the FSF, it really is a weird week :)03:49
paultagoh doctormo, were you interested in the UBT?03:50
doctormopaultag: Sync from any git branch to the launchpad project, you might have to sync the other way manually, best thing to do is to look at bzr branches and generate patch sets.03:50
paultagdoctormo: i'll look into that for sure03:50
doctormopaultag: http://imagebin.ca/view/xHByY6.html03:52
paultagoh killer03:52
paultagdoctormo: I'll set that up now, I think03:52
doctormopleia2: It's funny but practicality is being weighed and measured all the time, sometimes it's easier to go with the solution that works or looks nice rather than the pure and happy idealism.03:53
paultagdoctormo: we were just talking about this :D03:53
pleia2doctormo: sure, I'm a practicalist, it's just interesting given the committment to freedom in certain arenas and less in others03:54
doctormopleia2: Of course I've always thought of idealism as the purity that you always aim for, the thing you know is right and you may never be allowed to achieve but somehow you work towards it and bash your practical problems against it.03:54
doctormoI think that is where great creative solutions come from, the hard nosed idealist arguing with the functional practicalist to make more than one person happy.03:55
doctormopleia2: The debian logo thing could still be fixed, but I guess the idea is that the svg is foss, so why bother.03:55
doctormopleia2: As for github, yea I backed off from intergrating groundcontrol into github when I learned it was closed.03:56
* pleia2 nods03:56
paultagdoctormo: so, howabout BT ?03:58
paultagdoctormo: want to hang around with us for a while, and see how you like the folks?03:58
doctormohttp://hienhen.deviantart.com/art/So-what-about-me-171189757?q=&qo= <- heh I love the art community, always something awesome to add.04:00
doctormopaultag: Sure04:00
paultagdoctormo: #ubuntu-beginners, and #ubuntu-beginners-team04:00
paultagdoctormo: if / when you get serious about joining, poke me04:00
doctormoAh that's why I never joined, I could never spell 'beginners', I always tried with begginers.04:02
paultag:P04:02
pleia2paultag: we should call the volunteer vertigo team begginers04:02
paultagpleia2: hell yeah :)04:02
doctormoWhat is volunteer vertigo?04:03
paultagdoctormo: what I was talking about04:03
paultagdoctormo: over the coffee, with over-streaching04:04
doctormoAh the HR team to stamp on everyone's good mood with a catbert like smile?04:04
paultaghaha yup04:04
paultagall we need is a snappy name, and a blessing from the community04:04
doctormo-104:07
paultagoh wtf04:07
paultagwhy doctormo, are you afraid i'll come after you?04:07
doctormoYes04:07
paultagfair enough04:07
paultagdoctormo: I think i'll poke jono a bit later about it, get some feedback, and if there are no major concerns, we try a limited test. If it goes well, we continue, if we fail, we move on with efforts elsewhere :)04:09
nigelb+1 on growing up with the team04:10
duanedesignnigelb!!04:10
doctormopaultag: I maintain that having your todo type code thing would be much better than a specific team for HR. Although, having a stronger presence for the council leaders of any team to be known contact points for conflict resolution is the best approach I think.04:10
paultaghey nigelb04:10
nigelbmorning folks :)04:10
nigelblesson learned, go to bed on time.04:10
pleia2morning nigelb :)04:11
paultagdoctormo: we'll see how it gells. I'm good software side ( writing audit stuff is no problem )04:11
nigelbI forgot to set my alarm for 4 am, set the time, forgot to switch it *on*04:11
paultagdoctormo: we'll see where people need help and what's helpful. Remove what sucks, keep what's useful, and emerge :)04:11
paultagnigelb: awwwww04:11
paultagWell, I'm off for the night04:11
nigelbpaultag: im going late.  can't walk without completed code04:11
nigelbg'nite04:11
paultaggood night, guys and gals!04:11
paultagnigelb: hum?04:12
paultagnigelb: oh noes that's right, you lost code :'(04:12
nigelbyeah04:12
paultagnigelb: at least oyu know what you are doing now:)04:12
paultagOK, good night all :)04:12
paultagdoctormo: had fun tonight, cheers04:12
duanedesigncya paultag04:12
doctormopaultag: night04:13
doctormothanks for a great night as always.04:13
nigelbI *hate* banks - they make me fill out so many forms!04:13
doctormonigelb: Only a credit union is open source :-D04:22
nigelbhaha04:30
nigelbI absolutely loath filling out foams04:31
nigelb*forms04:31
nigelband I never get my signature right when they telll me "it should be same everywhere"04:31
PendulumI've never understood that "same everywhere" thing04:37
doctormonigelb: It doesn't have to be the same everywhere, there are writing experts that are brought into court to testify if there is a problem because they can tell from the way a stroke is carried though.04:37
nigelbdoctormo: I spent the last 4 working days in the bank, at least one hour, even on my birthday04:39
nigelbbecause on my debit card application, the signature was different :/04:39
doctormonigelb: I think I spent some time when I was 12 perfecting my signature, I spend my time on it each time like a work of art.04:42
duanedesigndoctormo: lol, i thought i was the only one who did that04:42
nigelbdoctormo: haha, I hate doing that.  I just quickly sign and leave it.04:42
Pendulummy signiture is fairly different from when I was 12, but that's because at 12 I could use my hands properly04:43
nigelbsome banks are okay, if they realize its "you" doing the signing, they don't bother to check04:43
doctormonigelb: That may be your problem then :-) Pendulum: Aye that happened to my dad after his hemorrhage.04:43
nigelbsome of them are really irritating, they know its you, and they still irritate you :x04:44
nigelband the bank people act like they're gods - I hate that04:45
nigelbmostly happens in the more older government banks04:45
PendulumI am so glad I use the small town bank of the sort where my best friend's mum works there and I went to school with some of the tellers and with the kids of some of the other employees04:48
nigelbhaha04:49
nigelbthats fun04:49
duanedesignPendulum: yes i recently stopped going to a bank where everyone knew me. It has been a pain04:50
duanedesigni got used to never needing my ID04:50
nigelbhah04:50
* duanedesign goes to check on pbuilder04:51
nigelbutter frustration at going to bank = seeing them type04:51
doctormonhandler: better? http://imagebin.ca/view/cHq96Y.html05:10
nhandlerdoctormo: Yeah. Will we use it with a white background or transparent?05:15
doctormonhandler: It already has a transparent background05:15
nhandler:)05:15
doctormonhandler, nigelb: pleia2 also asked me for ideas on the ubuntu user days branding which you can see here: http://imagebin.ca/view/gKlD87.html05:33
nigelbdoctormo: love the user days done :)05:37
nigelb*one05:37
doctormonigelb: There is 3 different blue ones to choose from.05:38
doctormoMaybe use the hat ones for ubuntu classroom anddo the book one with the sun for ubuntu user days05:39
nigelbI think the man with hat is good for user days05:39

dholbachhey dpm, hey kim007:47
dholbachhow are you all doing?07:47
aragood morning dholbach, dpm, kim0, all07:47
aragood thanks07:47
arastarted my morning with a bit of German lessons07:47
dholbachoh wow07:48
kim0ara: dpm: dholbach Have a fantastic morning everyone :)07:48
dholbachwhat did you learn?07:48
dpmdoing fine. I'm not sure it is still so warm in Germany, but here it definitely is07:48
araI am trying to change the routine and start my morning with German, if not, after a day of work, I am too lazy to learn07:48
dholbachdpm: 25°C right now, going to be 35°C later on07:48
arawell, I am still on lesson 4, so... not much :D07:48
aradpm, yesterday was better, it went only up to 29C, it was the first day in many when I could go out just after work07:49
kim0dholbach: think I'll feel right at home in Berlin :)07:50
dholbachara: you must be a real morning person then - I'm not sure I could learn much in the morning :)07:50
dholbachara: I had the same problem in school :-P07:51
dholbachdpm, ara: if my non-presentable counting yesterday would be correct, of 3.5 millions Berlinians, there's like 1 million Spanish people :)07:52
arahehehe, dholbach: where did you go?07:53
dpmdholbach, what were you exactly counting :)07:53
dholbachdpm: people babbling away in rapid Spanish when I was walking past them :)07:53
dpmhaha07:54
dholbachara: Wrangelstraße, Mariannenplatz, then to my sister's place, then home :)07:54

* nigelb waves to all!07:59
dholbachhey nigelb07:59
nigelbheya!07:59
dpmhiya nigelb08:04
aradholbach, can I make you a couple of comments related to the ISO testers in the hall of fame? 0:-)08:05
dholbachyes08:06
araif it is not too much work08:06
arathe name I give you, it is supposed to be the launchpadid, then:08:07
aratranslate it to real name (+ link to launchpad page, as the rest)08:07
araif you can't find a equivalent, just skip that one08:07
dholbach"Lance (aka: Erick Brunzell)" isn't :)08:07
araas I told you, I will be asking people to fix that field in their profiles08:07
aradholbach, i.e. ;-)08:07
dholbachI'll add it to my TODO, but I can't guarantee that it's always going to be accurate08:08
araand if it is easy for you, filter the Canonical folks08:08
aradholbach, I was guessing that you would use launchpadlib in the h-o-f and, therefore, it would be easier for you to do this things08:09
araif you don't, I can do it on my side08:09
dholbachI do it08:09
dholbachI was just referring to " Lance (aka: Erick Brunzell)" - if I'd use just "Lance", I'd get to http://launchpad.net/~lance which is "lcniles", so probably the wrong user08:11
arayes, if the user is wrong, like in that case, just skip that one08:17
aradon't put it in the list08:17
dholbachara: ok08:19
dholbachhey jono08:19
jonohey dholbach08:21

jonodholbach, that survey is awesome :)08:33
dholbachyep08:33
dholbachJim has a big interest in getting the packaging guide up to scratch again and gave me lots of feedback on how docs stuff works08:35
duanedesignthe packaging guide is invaluable. I reference it all the time. That and the Debian maintainers Guide08:45
duanedesignthe only things that tripped me up at first was the different tools to do the same job. But that comes with the territory i guess08:46
duanedesignguess i should be telling this to the survey :)08:47
jononight all08:56
dholbachduanedesign: yes, please :)09:11
dholbachduanedesign: but you're right - we have lots of different tools to do the job, I hope we can identify some recommended tools that get the job done everywhere and just mention all the others09:11

vishha!10:00
nigelbsense: everyone goes through a rebranding on getting ubuntu membership, I guess your rebranding like your membership is delayed ;)10:03
sensenigelb: I am still doubting whether to request the 'sense' username at Launchpad to be handed to me (user registered on 2006 and never did anything) since my 'qense' address is linked to from several files now.10:04
nigelbsense: files = changelogs?10:04
popeyJFo / maco / jcastro / sense: I missed your conversation yesterday about omg ubuntu. Two things I'd say - there is now omgsuse.. so it's not like they have any kind of allegiance to ubuntu, and secondly I was told (when I asked them to reign in one of their inflammatory posts/comments) that "we don't owe ubuntu anything"10:05
sensenigelb: some, and copyright notices in file headers10:05
nigelbsense: ouch, if it were changelogs LP would be able to attribute it to you since its on email ID10:05
sensenigelb: It might not be such a big deal, and if I want to change I'd better change now. When I'd wait I'd only have more troubles switching.10:06
nigelbYes, definitely10:07

nigelbI had to rework all that i lost yesterday, good thing I lost it12:16
nigelbI wrote it better this time :p12:16
paultagnigelb: be careful, you start to learn if you throw out working 1.0 code beacuse it "stinks" ( real coding term ), you can make a much better 2.012:18
paultagnigelb: that's a big problem in a lot of cases, like where there are deadlines, or you know, you're getting paid to do it12:18
nigelbpaultag: actually, I was doing the 1.0 -> 2.0 shift when I lost code12:19

czajkowski:)15:28
paultagJFo: volunteer vertigo, akgraner's trademark phrase :)15:28
paultagczajkowski: sure am ;)15:28
JFoah15:28
paultagJFo: having a safe place for people who are over-worked, and need to find a way to take some load off15:29
czajkowskipaultag: that;s called skype15:29
JFoI double love that idea15:29
czajkowskiwhere I rant at akgraner15:29
paultagczajkowski: haha15:29
czajkowskiakgraner: we;ve not skyped in ages :(15:29
paultagJFo: thanks, it's really akgraner's idea, but I loved the idea a lot, so I'm going to try and poke around and start a framework up15:29
JFocool15:30
akgranerpaultag, I'm in15:35
paultagakgraner: killer :D15:35
akgranerpaultag, I talked to a couple therapist about it and how it needs to work (so we don't do more harm than good)15:36
paultagakgraner: I killed off a ton of stuff from my queue, and I'm starting to get more time15:36
paultagakgraner: ddecator here is an up-in-coming therapist, humm :)15:36
paultagakgraner: what did he say?15:36
paultagor she15:36
akgranerpaultag, they were all male I talked to - no worries15:36
paultagOK15:36
akgranerthey said that the Ubuntu Community is one of the healthiest online communities they have looked at15:37
paultagwow, well that's something to be proud of15:37
duanedesignakgraner: you were in the Ubuntu Wanted session at UDS?15:38
akgranerand that we need to stress - that people need to feel comfortable to talk, and that discussions stay within group, no one should feel judged and that no-one should feel pressured15:38
akgranerduanedesign, was I - I wanted to be - I think I came late to that one as I was meeting with the camera people15:38
paultagakgraner: any ideas about how to do that? I don't want it to be "Oh they're under-preforming, they must be over-worked, send them to those VV guys"15:38
paultagakgraner: but a "Whew, what a week!" kinda place15:39
akgranerexactly15:39
akgranerHe is going to get me some information for the leaders15:39
duanedesignakgraner: i am not fully up on the VV idea but was wondering if there were ideas that crossed over between the two15:39
paultagNice!15:39
akgranerand he is looking into IRC... and how it all works so I can bug him about it while using the tools we would be using15:39
paultagakgraner: I can write a few one-off tool to data-mine for us / hold data for us, if we need them15:40
akgranerI thought Ubuntu Wanted was about getting people in the community lined up with the right project or vice versa15:40
paultagjono: ears burning?15:41
akgranerVolunteer Vertigo is more like Ubuntu Anonymous sorta thing - I organized it to be based on a 12 step program - but it only has 6 steps15:41
duanedesign:)15:41
akgranerpaultag, I had them look at my steps as well - we are going to re-word them a little15:42
paultagakgraner: that's 100%, it's the idea that matters, verbage is fluid15:42
jonohey15:42
jonopaultag, eh?15:42
paultagjono: akgraner and I were just talking about getting together with you, when you have a second15:42
akgranerduanedesign, I like the idea of the whole wanted thing - for people to post a here's where I can help and for projects to post here's where we need help - how's it going btw?15:43
jonopaultag, ahhh15:43
jonowhat about?15:43
paultagjono: akgraner's Volunteer Vertigo put into a team who's job it is to prevent burnout / VV15:44
paultagjono: we have a bit more in our heads that is more thought out, but nothing written down15:44
jonoahhh ok15:45
akgranerAn official Volunteer Vertigo group for Ubuntu15:45
duanedesignakgraner: I asked the other day and I think the community members whos idea it was have been too busy to really push it forward much15:45
paultagjono: when you have a free minute or two, let akgraner or myself know, I'd love to hash this out a tad and get some feedback15:45
jonocool15:46
jonowhat is the purpose of the group though?15:46
akgranersupport group15:46
akgranerfor people who volunteer too much15:46
akgranerhow to over come it - and not get caught up in it again and again15:47
akgranerhow to have a balanced volunteer community15:47
akgraneretc15:47
akgranerpaultag, anything you want to add that I missed?15:47
paultagjono: To both take people who say that they are worn out, as well as identifying who is burnned out. Just a safe outlet to put the pent-up workload anger, rather then quitting or flipping out15:47
paultagakgraner: I think you got it spot on15:47
jonohmmm15:47
jonointreresting idea15:47
jonobut I am not sure it wouldnt just fizzle out15:48
jonoput together a proposal and then lets ho on the phone15:48
jono:)15:48
akgranerok - can we do that after OSCON?15:48
jonoperfect :)15:48
jonoI am sprinting anyway, so that would be idea15:48
paultagjono: me neither, that's why I was thinking of trying a limited test, figure out what's useful, strip the cruft, and keep the good stuff, and if it's still  worth it, push it to a "full" team15:48
akgranerpaultag, we can work on the proposal but have the call after OSCON?15:48
jonoI am keen to learn more about yuour idesa15:48
