akgranerpleia2, I just got home03:25
pleia2akgraner: got sorted, thanks :)03:25
akgranerthe meeting took a little longer than I thought it would...03:25
akgranerok cool03:25
akgranerso I can add all the App Dev stuff now then?03:26
akgranerdid that all get sorted out as well03:26
pleia2not sure03:26
akgranerthey told me 15 to 20 senior citizens and there was over 50 with a lot of questions - but it was a good meeting...03:26
akgranerpleia2, ahh ok - thanks03:27
pleia2nhandler has been working on some classbot stuff, he might be able to give a better update :)03:27
akgranernhandler, did you see what cjohnston was saying about App Dev Week stuff still showing up even though none of us could see it03:27
pleia2wow 50!03:27
akgraneryep and they all wanted CD's03:27
pleia2always fun when you get surprises like that ;)03:27
pleia2haha03:27
akgranerand they want to do an install fest03:28
pleia2that rocks03:28
akgranergotta round up more people for that - b/c there are some things I am just not able to fix or them03:28
akgraners/or/for03:28
nhandlerakgraner: It should be safe to add them. We had an old version of classbot running, so there wasn't much testing I could do at the time. I have gone ahead and updated it03:28
akgranernhandler, awesome!!! Thank you!03:28
akgranerI didn't want to add anything only to find out it needed to be redone :-)03:29
nhandlerakgraner: Even if ClassBot goes crazy again, you shouldn't need to redo your events (assuming you add them in the proper format)03:29
akgraner:-P03:30
pleia2akgraner: oh, not sure if you saw but nhandler made great docs about how to add events, in case you ever need a reminder :) it's under "Calendar Format" on the classbot page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Classroom/ClassBot03:31
akgraneryes  - I have it bookmarked :-)03:31
nhandlerpleia2: I still need to merge that page with the old one (that was not well linked to)03:31
akgranerI just have to remember - no re-occuring or repeating events :-)  I like to use that feature03:32
akgranerIt's ok on the Fridge and every other Calendar just not the one for Classroom...03:33
nhandlerakgraner: The issue with those types of events are that they are farily difficult to parse. For example, when I tried making a script to create the wiki markup for the upcoming meetings, I couldn't do it due to the recorring events and all day stuff03:34
akgranernhandler, no worries  - I just had to add a note for myself :-) otherwise I get in a hurry and forget which Calendar I am adding stuff too.. Being human just messes up my day sometimes03:35
nhandlerakgraner: Yeah, that can be a drag. I am working on fixing that issue ;)03:36
akgranernhandler, where can I file a bug on being human...03:36
akgranerI'll add a me too there03:36
akgraner:-)03:36
* nhandler should ask in #launchpad / #ubuntu-bugs03:37
highvoltageakgraner: hey, what's up?03:37
akgranerhighvoltage, just getting things finished up :-/  it's been one on those Mondays...  Just took a deep breath and enjoyed a few minutes to regroup :-)  Now I can think straight...03:38
akgranerSomeone reminded me last week - the last 6-8 weeks I wasn't being very "Amberish"03:39
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC
akgranerThen they listed all the ways I wasn't being me - UGH!!!  That was not the reflection I was wanting to see  - so sorry y'all ... getting everything back on track now...03:44
akgraneranywho :-) it's all good - maybe this transparency stuff isn't so bad after all03:46
akgranerhighvoltage, ping07:30
akgranerwhen you are around can you ping me please... thanks07:31
akgranerhey all question for you about what to call a new section in UWN09:25
akgranerso we have people becoming MOTUs, or getting PPU, Universal Contributor, Kernel Package Set  that gives various upload rights etc09:27
akgranerSince people want to see who is approved like we have new members section in UWN09:27
akgranerI can't say welcome new members for these as some of these folks are already Ubuntu Members09:28
akgranerSo what should be call it?09:28
akgranerUbuntu Developers with new Status?09:29
akgranerUbuntu Developers granted new privileges?09:30
akgranerWelcome New Ubuntu Developers?09:30
akgranersuggestions? Thoughts?09:30
akgranerI'll go with Welcome New Ubuntu Developers for now unless you all can thing of something better09:33
