* nigelb notes its recruiting time!13:49
doctormodholbach: Yes, a ground control session would be good to do (and easier since it's in the repositories)14:10
doctormojono and akgra aren't here right now, but I did want to ask if I could do a session entitled: "Tips on interacting with a existing developer community" which would focus more on social and ways to interact and common mistakes. is this an appropriate topic?14:12
doctormoMorning dinda14:58
dindaHowdy there doctormo!14:59
doctormodinda: How is the new job going?15:02
dindadoctormo: very encouraging - the work folks have done is amazing!15:02
doctormodinda: Cool can you give me a link to any of it?15:03
dindadoctormo: yes, posted some links on my blog - which I finally got listed on planet15:03
dholbachdoctormo, yeah, why not15:05
dholbachdoctormo, oh you added a different one already - that one I like too15:05
doctormodholbach: What I'll do is hold off on the second one and then if there are gaps, I'll do the upstream social one.15:05
vishdoctormo: how about titling the session : "The appropriate way to say 'Your work Sucks!'" ;)15:05
dholbachdoctormo, great15:06

vishpaultag: but still SC doesnt have all the synaptic goodies15:16
paultagHurmm.15:16
paultagIs there a timeline somewhere?15:16
paultagor is this being aborted until SC is feature complete?15:16

AlanBelldholbach: just discussing the ubuntu font in #ubuntu+116:57
AlanBellis it going to need a ffe filed to get it in to 10.10? is the plan to get it there?16:57
dholbachAlanBell, I have no idea - I merely packaged bits up16:58
AlanBellany idea where should I file a ffe?16:59
dholbachhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess17:00
AlanBellbug 62962217:05
ubot2Launchpad bug 629622 in ubuntu "ffe: new Ubuntu font (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/62962217:05
nigelbAlanBell: is it available for everyone now?17:07
AlanBellwell no, not yet17:08
AlanBellbut they should probably get the package in, even if empty17:08
dholbachI'm calling it a day - have a great weekend!17:18
AlanBello/ dholbach17:18
dholbachbye AlanBell17:19
duanedesignnigelb: the fedora site is looking nice17:32

AlanBello/18:15
duanedesignsome great articles offering experiences and advice on hosting community events http://tinyurl.com/2734qwc18:28
doctormoall: rocking on wallpapers http://blip.tv/file/4079499 yahoo18:41
vishAlanBell: it was brought up in the last release meeting, and iain mentioned it might not be ready..18:44
vishAlanBell: though i dont know if you were asked to file the FFE.. or if there is any new info :)18:44
vishhmm , that was about the fonts^ , just incase , /me has a bad habit of replying out of context :)18:45
AlanBellvish: I raised it in #ubuntu+1 and was advised to file the ffe because nobody there knew of plans to include it18:46
vishAlanBell: yeah, i see you've subscribed iain to the bug , he should probably reply.. but i'm just repeating what happened in the meeting.. :)  they discussed this and it was mentioned that mark was not yet fully satisfied or something of the sort.. so they are not yet sure18:48
vishand they dint want to commit about the font status yet..18:48
AlanBellreading it now http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2010/08/27/%23ubuntu-meeting.html18:50
vish also to note is that Canonical dont own the fonts yet until its 1.0 , the fonts are still dalton mags property for now..19:03
AlanBellvish: yeah, I know about that19:05
vishAlanBell: yeah guessed so :) ,just mentioned since sladen changed the bug title :)19:06
AlanBellI think the issue is an open public release rather than the specific version number, although open release and 1.0 tend to mean the same thing19:08
AlanBelljust to be on the final spin it kind of needs to get there somewhat in advance19:09
doctormothanks for the awesome comment AlanBell19:11
AlanBellit was such a good idea, can't think why they didn't actually just do it and get it in to Maverick if they wanted to19:12
=== james_w` is now known as james_w
vishdoctormo: odd, i cant reach your blog!19:27
vishdoctormo: but saw the vid and wow! :)19:27
vishcould get to blip.tv from liferea...19:28
doctormovish: :-) It's kinda cute for a demonstration, much more could be done.19:28
vishyeah... JUST IMAGINE!  :D19:28
AlanBelldoctormo: what resolution does it render the svg to?19:32
doctormoAlanBell: Anything, I tested it at 640x480, 800x600 and 1250x800, gnome seems to be doing a good job of it.19:33
doctormoAlanBell: But the size of the original svg is 1650x105019:36
AlanBellyeah, I tried with some svgs which had a small size specified, I think it renders the svg to the pixel size specified in the document properties then stretches that to your screen size19:44
AlanBellso my small logo svg looked rubbish scaled from 100px to 2048px even though it is a scaleable graphic in theory19:45
doctormoAlanBell: It's quite easy to pop the svg headers and apply a transform, something that could be done in the gnome wallpaper loading code.19:49
nigelbczajkowski: like that ubuntu logo on your twitter pic (I must be blind, why didn't I see it before!)20:37

doctormonigelb: Why not, as long as the movements are infrequent enough22:48
nigelbdoctormo: the problem is, it should change, but the change should be apparent22:49
nigelbbut then I'm probabl thinking of webshots like application22:49
doctormohow should it change?22:49
nigelbI dunno22:49
nigelbWarning: I may sound incoherent right now, 3 am isn't best of times22:49
