[00:26] akgraner: No problem ;) [12:20] akgraner, pleia2: There is a nice interview with Henrik Omma, but it focuses entirely on his work with Canonical. It would probably be appropriate for UWN, but should we feature it on the fridge? [12:22] Hmm...When/why did we change the ubuntu-news-team to default to reply to list akgraner / pleia2 ? [12:34] gah, bug. Its happened to classroom list once [12:35] nigelb: It is a setting [12:35] nhandler: I know [12:35] but it has changed randomly before [12:35] Some people like it, but the real solution is to teach people to use 'Reply to all' [12:52] * nhandler changed it back to having replies go to the sender (the recommended setting) [12:53] nhandler, I have no idea why it was changed [12:53] wasn't aware it was [12:53] nhandler, yep just read the interview [12:53] If you haven't added it yet I will in a few [12:53] akgraner: Think it should go on the fridge or just in UWN? [12:53] and yep I am adding it to UWN in ION [12:53] both [12:54] Yep - people are interested in what people do at Canonical [12:55] akgraner: People are interested in lots of stuff, but that doesn't necessarily make it Ubuntu-related enough to go on the Fridge [12:56] nhandler, sigh [12:56] That is why I wanted a second opinion [12:58] no worries :-) [12:58] By default if someone who works on Ubuntu or related to Ubuntu and it's a good interview - it can be included [12:59] and by good I mean doesn't sound like a conversation you would have in a bar [12:59] and hints at professionalism [12:59] then we should consider including it [13:00] akgraner: Consider, I agree. My one hesitance was that this basically appears to be a "Canonical is a great place for me to work, you should get a job here" (which is partially confirmed by being on ubuntu-jobs and by the links they had at the bottom) [13:01] But it is up http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/2117 [13:01] well it did come through on the jobs mailing list :-) [13:02] so of course they want it to sound like the "Bestest most awesome no other better than here" to work post [13:02] * popey doesn't think it's appropriate for UWN, unless it's a slow news week [13:03] I put it in In Other News [13:04] which is where Canonical related topics go [13:04] b/c it's other news [13:04] popey, why do you feel that way? [13:05] it's UWN not CWN [13:05] and Henriks current role has very little to do with Ubuntu [13:05] well we include other Canonical related things [13:05] such as? [13:06] but interviews to me are different for some reason - I like to read about people [13:06] popey, look in ION the last 10 issues [13:06] Canonical gets mentioned all the time in various ways - Enterprise stuff etc [13:06] Landscape [13:06] for one [13:07] landscape is a product for managing Ubuntu machines [13:07] I know [13:07] but it is a paid for service [13:07] so appropriate [13:07] which I got gripped out for including [13:07] i dont see that there's a distinction between paid / free information in UWN [13:08] well you don't but some people do... just pointing that out [13:08] going back over previous UWN, 207 and 204 mention canonical services which directly relate to ubuntu [13:09] * akgraner bangs head on my desk - ahhhhhhhh this is so not my day.... :-) Thanks popey I appreciate the feedback really... [13:09] * popey shrugs [13:09] just my opinion, thats all [13:09] I know and I really appreciate it :-) [13:10] Maybe I'll just add it as a sneak peek link then [13:10] welll.. [13:10] there is a precident [13:10] you put the interview with sil in ION in ep 200 [13:10] did you get flak for that? [13:10] nope [13:10] so put henrik in then :) [13:10] just on Landscape and Ubuntu one official announcements for the services off the Canonical site [13:13] * akgraner needs to get the survey about UWN finished - I really want to know what people want and don't want to read about etc [13:14] heh [13:14] I expect you'll get a lot of replies telling you what to do and zero offers of help doing it [13:16] * nigelb thinks so too [13:17] popey: for uupc, you're looking for someone physically in UK? [13:17] well, I haven't said we're looking for someone yet :) [13:17] :D [13:17] its some way off yet [13:18] however if we continue as we are then yes, we'd need someone geographically close [13:18] hm :) [13:19] we record all in the same room, we don't do it remotely with skype/sip [13:20] popey and nigelb I suspect you are correct - but I also want to know what sections do people read first which ones they never look at and why etc [13:21] however, most people won't take the time to give that detailed of feedback so it's gotta be a check a box kinda thing [13:21] true [13:21] popey: that does make it rather painful :( [13:22] i do wonder sometimes how many people actually _read_ UWN [13:22] I dont think i have ever read one 'cover to cover' [13:26] :-( [13:26] but good to know [13:26] i guess I'm not target market, thing is most of the news I will have seen via planets or somesuch [13:26] nods [13:26] it's just a consolidated recap [13:26] same problem we have with news on the podcast [13:27] and a snapshot in time of what was happening in and related to Ubuntu [13:28] However I really want at some point to get the archives set up in a web-based searchable fashion off the Fridge [13:28] and I am hopelessly stalled on the new fridge at the moment [13:29] we need the SSO stuff added [13:29] and the content migrated over [13:29] without breaking the links [13:31] and more content links added - this is on my todo list for the weekend - but the other two items I need others to help with (above my skill level at the moment) [13:31] i did that for popey.com when i moved from drupal to wordpress [13:32] popey, I can give you access to the development site - do you have time to help? [13:32] yeah, sure [13:32] ok one sec [13:32] is this the one hosted on jonos host? [13:32] popey, which email address do you want associated with this [13:32] alan@popey.com [13:33] k we can always change it if need be for the SSO stuff later :-) [13:33] ok [13:34] dang SSO has been added - thanks nhandler (I think) [13:34] so you want to migrate all posts from existing fridge to new fridge and keep urls? [13:35] yes :-) [13:35] please and thank you!! [13:36] I'll work on getting all the tags and stuff added [13:36] does it need to be done before you do that [14:10] no [14:11] okie dokie [23:06] how in the world did I manage to schedule IRC meetings 3 nights in a row === akgraner changed the topic of #ubuntu-news to: Next Meeting: September 2nd, 2010 @ 2300UTC | The Ubuntu News Channel - You report it, we publish it!
