[00:01] <duanedesign> JanC: i thought it was pretty neat myself. I struggle to make stuff that creative.
[00:01] <nigelb> duanedesign: very unique :p
[00:01] <nigelb> should awaken your creative gene :p
[00:01] <duanedesign> :)
[02:50]  * nigelb hugs pleia2, maco, and other americas board
[02:50] <nigelb> you folks are so nice and send mail to the -news-team after every meeting :)
[04:06]  * nhandler accepts nigelb's hug
[04:08] <nigelb> nhandler: oh, you're there too?
[04:08] <nhandler> nigelb: Yep ;)
[04:08] <nigelb> we seriously need to find a team without your active participation :p
[04:08]  * nigelb thinks that's a myth though
[04:14] <nhandler> nigelb: I am not that "active" on all teams. I learn their workflows and how to contribute to them, and then move around each cycle (helps with burnout imo)
[04:15] <nigelb> nhandler: you need to touch base with akgraner
[04:15] <nigelb> that should go on her presentation about volunteer vertigo :D
[04:15] <nhandler> :)
[07:55] <dpm> good morning #community!

[13:04] <matti> lo popey
[14:08] <doctormo> It never starts the day off well when I'm being called a communist. Now I'm in a mood and I won't enjoy the day.
[14:14]  * AlanBell gives comrade doctormo a hug
[14:24] <doctormo> Thanks AlanBell
[14:42] <jcastro> Technoviking: around?
[14:43] <JFo> what a naughty thing to say... for all you know he could be asquare.
[14:43] <jcastro> woo, today is my 3 year canonical anniversary!
[14:43] <cjohnston> yay!
[14:43] <cjohnston> congrats
[14:44] <cjohnston> if only all of us could spend three years at such a cool company
[14:45] <popey> congrats jcastro !
[14:46] <popey> ah hello dinda
[14:46] <popey> just the person!
[14:46] <cjohnston> dinda: run!
[14:46] <cjohnston> lol
[14:46] <popey> :)
[14:46] <dinda> ruh roh!
[14:46]  * popey hands dinda a scooby snack
[14:47] <dinda> thanks popey will go nice with morning coffee
[14:48] <cjohnston> lol
[14:51] <doctormo> cjohnston: Don't rub it in. ;-)
[14:52] <cjohnston> what am i rubbing?
[14:52] <JFo> :-|
[14:52] <doctormo> [09:44] cjohnston: if only all of us could spend three years at such a cool company <- yes, if only.
[14:52] <cjohnston> lol
[15:34] <Technoviking> jcastro: what is up
[15:35] <jcastro> two things, I saw mgunes got a rename on the forums
[15:35] <jcastro> is that possible now?
[15:35] <jcastro> also, any idea why my signature doesn't work? Do you guys block remote-type things? http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=74
[15:35] <jcastro> wrt signatures - (If you can't beat em, join em!)
[15:36] <Technoviking> jcastro: in a case by case basis, if the name is free and their is a good reason (harassment, widely known by other name, etc...)
[15:36] <Technoviking> s/their/there (need coffee)
[15:36] <jcastro> yes, mostly, it's been like 5 years and I'd like to not be known by an old sega genesis video game because I am not a BBSer anymore. :p
[15:36]  * popey hugs Technoviking 
[15:37] <Technoviking> jcastro: I don't know of any changes to the sigs
[15:38] <jcastro> is it possible to use a link like that?
[15:38] <jcastro> here's what it looks like
[15:38] <jcastro> http://stackimage.quickmediasolutions.com/mini.php?id=235&site=ubuntu.stackexchange&backgrou%20nd=eeeeee&border=ffffff&text=555555&title=5555ff&f%20ont1=sans&font2=sansbold
[15:38] <jcastro> I find it too awesome to not use that, heh
[15:39] <popey> heh
[15:39] <Technoviking> yeah, regular user only get text and link text
[15:40] <Technoviking> staff get graphics as a bonus (which I think sends a lame message)
[15:40] <popey> +1
[15:40] <popey> Ubuntu members and devs should get it :)
[15:40] <popey> and council members
[15:40] <popey> and people called popey
[15:41] <Technoviking> popey hates forum, he gets nothing:)
[15:41] <jcastro> I'll just remove it then, special treatment ftl.
[15:42] <Technoviking> I think giving Ubuntu members and dev that bonus is a fantastic idea though
[15:44] <Technoviking> been think about making generated sigs in vBulletin, that pulls info from LP and maybe stackexchange
[15:44] <jcastro> that would be cool
[15:44] <jcastro> it would seperate people who might know what they are talking about if you see their lp karm
[15:44] <jcastro> vs. "just reinstall the distro" people
[15:48] <jono> hey all
[15:49] <popey> its also a motivator for membership for forums people
[15:49] <popey> who probably dont have much motivation for going for membership?
[15:49] <popey> lo jono
[15:53] <Technoviking> jono: Happy Birthday!!! Still a pup though
[15:53] <jono> thanks Technoviking!
[15:56] <popey> Oh yeah, happy circumvention of our nearest star jono

[15:58] <doctormo> jono: Your birthday today?
[15:58] <jono> doctormo, yep

[16:58] <doctormo> jono: Here you go, Happy birthday: http://imagebin.ca/view/I2briqS8.html
[16:58] <Technoviking> doctormo: probably at the cheaper hotel, but will not split room since job will not allow it
[16:59] <Technoviking> too much paperwork for them
[16:59] <doctormo> Technoviking: Which cheaper hotel? my list has 4 places nearby.
[16:59] <Technoviking> have not look yet
[17:01] <jono> doctormo, hah, nice!
[17:01] <doctormo> Technoviking: let me know if you'd like details.
[17:02] <Technoviking> doctormo: yes, please
[17:03] <|izzie> doctormo!
[17:08] <huats> doctormo, can you please put the details somewhere ?I am sure I won't be able to afford the travel (at least 1000€ of plane...) I'd like to know the exact figure
[17:17] <doctormo> huats: The alternative accommodation ranges between ~$180, $360, $650, $990 depending on the hotel andarrangementfor the entire week.
[17:17] <huats> ok doctormo thanks !
[17:18] <doctormo> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UDS-N/OtherAccommodation
[17:19] <AlanBell> it is a cool idea doctormo

[17:20] <huats> I'lllet you know anyway
[17:20] <doctormo> huats: Where are you in the world?
[17:20] <huats> France
[17:20] <jcastro> popey: sory to spam your LoCo council RT
[17:20] <huats> (not in Paris)
[17:20] <jcastro> popey: but that basically clears out the queue
[17:36] <Technoviking> doctormo: you rock!!!
[17:49] <dinda> hello community team - does anyone know the Loco contacts for Sweden?  know as 'has met' or talked to?

[19:24] <duanedesign> /12/12
[19:26] <nigelb> duanedesign: 42
[19:29] <duanedesign> nigelb: :)
[19:29] <duanedesign> nigelb: bad enough I do it once, but twice...in a row :P
[19:30] <duanedesign> nigelb: whats even worse is this is window 12 :) Where did i think i was going.
[19:30] <nigelb> duanedesign: hahahaa
[19:33] <duanedesign> nigelb: pedro from BT has a -classroom session tommorow on beginning python. The Development Focus Group started a Dev Academy to organize development oriented IRC classes in -classroom.
[19:33] <nigelb> duanedesign: I know, I was around when he proposed it
[19:34] <duanedesign> nigelb: ahhh. Your everywhere! /me turns around slowly
[19:34] <nigelb> duanedesign: that happens to me with nhandler :p
[19:42] <nigelb> popey: could you help in -meeting if you're around?
[19:47] <doctormo> jcastro: The UDS wiki page? Thanks for the mention.

[20:01] <nigelb> popey: pi ci helped, thanks :)
[20:07] <nigelb> ok, translation community rocks.
[20:07] <jcastro> popey: careful, dvorak was bullish on OS/2
[20:09] <dpm> nigelb, of course! What awesome thing did translators again do?
[20:11] <nigelb> dpm: heh, just noticed the replies to your thread for next cycle plans :)
[20:11] <dpm> nigelb, ah, yeah, I was very glad to see so many good responses and feedback :-)
[20:12] <dpm> that was very cool
[20:12] <nigelb> Very quickly too.
[20:12] <dpm> yeah
[20:14] <dpm> anyway, dinner time
[20:14] <nigelb> ttyl :)
[20:15] <dpm> and packing time, driving tomorrow to Barcelona and Olot, going to see the family for the weekend
[20:15] <nigelb> woo, have a good time :)
[20:15] <dpm> thanks :)
[20:16] <popey> haha jcastro
[20:16] <popey> jcastro: he was right about os/2 tho ;)
[20:16] <jcastro> os/2 was so awesome
[20:16] <jcastro> though shalt not flame OS/2 in front of me
[20:16]  * nigelb kicks jcastro and popey to ##apple :p
[20:16] <popey> +1
[20:16] <popey> i loved OS/2
[20:17] <nigelb> past tense?
[20:17] <jcastro> I love how you could do stuff in OS/2 and the mouse wouldn't jerk around
[20:17] <jcastro> I can't even get that in 2010
[20:17] <nigelb> ah, that OS/2
[20:17] <popey> silly rabbit nigelb
[20:17] <popey> _that_ OS/2
[20:18] <nigelb> wait, I've used it!
[20:18]  * nigelb vaguley remembers playing on it years back
[20:18] <jcastro> nigel mixed it up with the other os/2
[20:18] <jcastro> or maybe "os"
[20:19] <nigelb> jcastro: os/x
[20:19] <jcastro> no, os/2 ran on more hardware
[20:19] <JanC> I'm sure you can get that on many RT OSs  ;)
[20:19] <JanC> the thing about the mouse not jerking around I mean
[20:20] <jcastro> http://castrojo.files.wordpress.com/2010/04/os2.jpg
[20:21] <cjohnston> I like that half a jcastro face
[20:21] <cjohnston> lol
[20:21] <jcastro> I should fire it up in VM
[20:21] <jcastro> too bad I don't have a floppy drive
[20:22] <nigelb> jcastro: did you just take that pic?
[20:22] <popey> jcastro: what do you need a floppy drive for?
[20:22] <popey> you can make a CD ISO out of a floppy disk image :)
[20:22] <jcastro> yeah
[20:22] <jcastro> nigelb: no, I've had it
[20:23] <nigelb> jcastro: :)
[22:02] <doctormo> Wow I'm actually quite surprised at how cheap flights are to UDS. If the accommodation thing works out, my UDS budget would only be ~$400 total.
[22:03] <doctormo> Nice going picking florida :-D
[22:03] <nigelb> I'm surprised.
[22:03] <nigelb> With Disney Land being there especially.
[22:04] <nhandler> nigelb: Disney World. Disney land is on the other coast
[22:04] <nigelb> ah, er, yes
[22:04]  * cjohnston prefers universal parks
[22:05] <cjohnston> G79
[22:06] <nigelb> cjohnston: 101010
[22:06] <cjohnston> 111111
[22:06] <cjohnston> 101010 = 2 days before my bday
[22:07] <nigelb> cjohnston: you're birhtday is on 12th?
[22:07] <cjohnston> ya
[22:07] <Pendulum> nigelb: the fact that Disney there is probalby why they're so cheap
[22:08] <cjohnston> get you there.. rob you on lunch
[22:08] <doctormo> Pendulum: And that tourism has been hit pretty hard, the resort I'm looking at reduced their prices from 250 per night to 149 per night.
[22:08] <nigelb> Pendulum: oh, I thought thata'd make it more expensive
[22:08] <AlanBell> nigelb: volume of flights and bigger planes brings the price down
[22:09] <nigelb> AlanBell: ah
[22:32] <duanedesign> doctormo: yeah i think i found a flight and room package that was 450$
[22:33] <doctormo> duanedesign: Are you coming?
[22:33] <duanedesign>  doctormo it is starting to look like I am not.
[22:34] <doctormo> duanedesign: pricey or untimely?
[22:34] <duanedesign> the former
[22:34] <duanedesign> i got my schedule completely cleared that week
[22:40] <duanedesign> doctormo: although the accomadation deal you found helps make it more affordable
