| nigelb | morning duanedesign :) | 02:24 |
| nigelb | duanedesign: oh oh http://www.cvoid.com/ubuntu/bqueries/ways-to-know-the-world-of-ubuntu/ | 03:12 |
| duanedesign | nigelb: cool | 03:14 |
| duanedesign | thats great that -classroom got mentioned | 03:15 |
| nhandler | nigelb: Who made that post? | 03:17 |
| nigelb | nhandler: no clue. | 03:19 |

| doctormo | http://1roxtar.deviantart.com/art/Ubuntu-Life-Re-Started-180640652 <- This is why we do Ubuntu | 04:58 |
| nigelb | doctormo: good one | 05:19 |
| doctormo | nigelb: Part of the reason I watch the art community, it's full of brand new users who aren't connected at all to the rest of the community yet. | 05:22 |
| nigelb | :) | 05:23 |
| doctormo | You know I have blog entries scheduled until Wednesday :-D It's been a busy weekend. | 05:23 |
| doctormo | nigelb: We have 447 members and clocking up still, I'm waiting for 500 and then I'll make a post about the awesome group and some awesome artwork. | 05:28 |
| duanedesign | doctormo: kind of reminds me of a poster i did a log time ago. In theme, not style. http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/files/UbuntuPoster-Small-Virus.png | 05:39 |
| doctormo | duanedesign: Ah you did that! it's very good :-D | 05:40 |
| duanedesign | doctormo: i am doing less graphic design for work these days, so i hope to do more for fun now | 05:41 |
| doctormo | duanedesign: Please do show us your stuff, maybe do an art swap or collab with me. | 05:42 |
| duanedesign | i just noticed some spam links in the descriptions on spreadubuntu | 05:48 |
| duanedesign | darn spammers | 05:49 |
| JanC | doctormo: maybe also watch a person operating under the name "bartart3d" (or "bartart3dbe" on youtube) then ☺ | 05:49 |
| JanC | http://www.bartart3d.be/ | 05:49 |
| doctormo | JanC: A known ubuntu artist who helps out in the community? | 05:51 |
| JanC | currently he's not active in the community, but I know him since before he started using Ubuntu, so I know some of the things he's capable of ☺ | 05:53 |
| JanC | if I would need somebody to do something music-related I would call him though ☺ | 05:53 |
| JanC | actually, I should try to see him again some time, it's been 3 or 4 years :-/ | 05:54 |
| doctormo | JanC: We have a music competition going on in dA, I'm in a band entering doing the lyrics, one other is doing the cover and one other still is doing the music. fun on a bun | 05:58 |
| JanC | dA = DeviantArt I suppose? | 06:00 |
| JanC | they do music now? | 06:00 |
| JanC | he actually started to use open source *after* I last saw him, which is quite funny ☺ | 06:02 |
| JanC | somehow he started to play with Blender (after trying & throwing away limited "student/test versions" of commercial tools) and was so impressed that he thought maybe other open source software was capable too ☺ | 06:04 |
| duanedesign | thats nice, I often think FireFox is a good tool for that | 06:08 |
| duanedesign | Showing people FOSS is capable an that open source != crap. Asking someone to try FF is also a much smaller step then an entire OS | 06:09 |
| JanC | well, he probably knew firefox already too, but firefox doesn't make it as obvious that it's open source (*all* web browsers are available for free after all) | 06:10 |
| JanC | but when professional 3D tools cost somewhere between 500 & 10000 EUR, en then Blender costs 0 EUR, people start to look why, I guess | 06:14 |
| JanC | well, and > 10000 EUR too of course | 06:15 |
| JanC | http://www.youtube.com/user/bartart3dbe#p/u/3/rsRa_RvqjAQ is a video clip of one of the music projects he was involved in (but not exactly the most "poppy" one, this is sort of industrial noise ;) ) | 06:26 |

| * duanedesign has been learning about the opensource 3d printer project this morning | 10:05 | |
| duanedesign | RepRap | 10:05 |
| AlanBell | it is cool | 10:10 |
| AlanBell | and it can print itself, which is really cool | 10:10 |
| duanedesign | AlanBell: yes, i was just trying to find a local usergroup. Looks like there is one just 1.5 hours down the highway :) | 10:17 |
| nigelb | morning duanedesign :) | 10:33 |
| nigelb | I suppose you don't have sleep anymore | 10:33 |
| duanedesign | nigelb: i was off between 1:36 and 4:03 :) | 10:35 |
| duanedesign | nigelb: have you found out about your visa yet? | 10:36 |
| jussi | duanedesign: keepassx seems to be something similar - you can save the password file to a mounted share, whcih seems to acheive what we are after. | 10:47 |
| duanedesign | jussi: aha, thank you | 11:27 |
| * duanedesign is working on a creative uses for ubuntu one blog post. | 11:37 | |
| duanedesign | but i am having trouble coming up with a cron job that will take a screenshot of your desktop every N minutes and save with a unique name. | 11:37 |
| duanedesign | http://paste.rtg.in.ua/2cd563e9b4a630e2abbdee668b2187a9/ | 11:37 |
| popey | downloading torrents being a good thing to promote? | 11:39 |
| popey | (Yes, I know fully that it's _possible_ to download legal content via torrent) | 11:40 |
| jussi | popey: we promote torrents for all ubuntu releases, why not for other stuff? | 11:50 |
| popey | other stuff like? | 11:54 |
| AlanBell | debian releases | 11:59 |
| popey | :) | 11:59 |
| AlanBell | I would say just add an example to the article of a perfecly legitimate torrent download that one might want to add remotely | 12:00 |
| popey | yup | 12:00 |
| popey | less ambiguous | 12:00 |
| AlanBell | duanedesign: so add to that paragraph: so whilst out and about you can add the torrent link to the latest Ubuntu server and have the .iso ready to burn when you get home | 12:01 |
| popey | the prime example of how not to do this was the blog post Danny P wrote about 'first thing to do after you install ubuntu' and showed himself downloading all kinds of TV programmes, and music.. | 12:01 |
| AlanBell | or something like that | 12:01 |
| duanedesign | AlanBell: popey thank you, good advice | 12:04 |
| popey | I still think the webcam idea is a good one | 12:04 |
| popey | remotely monitor your home | 12:04 |
| doctormo | jussi: Nice catch on my blog, fully updated and should be much more correct now. | 12:06 |
| duanedesign | popey: and the commandline tool for that is 'webcam'? | 12:09 |
| doctormo | JanC: Yes but Blender3D cost $100,000 when it was bought from NeoGeo's assets auction. Yet another example of free and open source _not_ being free, but merely paid for by someone else. | 12:10 |
| doctormo | popey: Download Sita Sings the Blues via torrent :-) | 12:11 |
| doctormo | duanedesign: Re your cron job problem, could it be the problem with cronjobs not having access to Xserver environment variables? | 12:22 |
| duanedesign | doctormo: hmmm, that would explain why $HOME/screenshots didnt work :P | 12:36 |
| doctormo | Anyone notice how that wikileaked EU doc 'propritary' and replaces it with 'commercial'. It bloody annoys me to know to know that this can still work. | 12:37 |
| greg-g | popey, AlanBell jussi: use legaltorrents.com, maybe? :) | 13:47 |
| jcastro | anyone interested in a quick project? | 14:03 |
| jcastro | http://code.google.com/webfonts | 14:04 |
| jcastro | can someone find out how debian/ubuntu friendly these licenses are? | 14:04 |
| jcastro | MORE FONTS WOULD BE AMAZING | 14:04 |
| AlanBell | very, they are mostly OFL | 14:04 |
| AlanBell | which is specifically DFSG friendly | 14:04 |
| jcastro | oh nice | 14:04 |
| jcastro | so basically, we just need them packaged up | 14:04 |
| AlanBell | project complete! | 14:04 |
| AlanBell | yeah, by the sound of it Mark wants the new Ubuntu font to be submitted there as well | 14:05 |
| jcastro | that would be slick | 14:05 |
| jcastro | so people can just use it on their websites | 14:05 |
| AlanBell | yup | 14:06 |
| AlanBell | it will be hosted on font.ubuntu.com too, but putting it on google means more people will discover it's awesomeness | 14:06 |
| jcastro | oh, nice | 14:06 |
| jussi | some nice stuff there | 14:06 |
| jcastro | I didn't know about font.u.c | 14:06 |
| jussi | nor did I | 14:07 |
| jcastro | I'll ask Ken to package em up | 14:09 |
| AlanBell | do you happen to know who does Evolution stuff? | 14:13 |
| AlanBell | here are all the fonts in the google web font thing http://code.google.com/p/googlefontdirectory/source/browse/ | 14:14 |
| AlanBell | some are apache, some are OFL | 14:16 |
| AlanBell | oh, looks like there are some issues on some of the OFL.txt files! | 14:16 |
| AlanBell | http://code.google.com/p/googlefontdirectory/source/browse/felltypes/OFL.txt | 14:16 |

| akgraner | woo hoo - App Developer Week Starts today :-) | 14:23 |
| akgraner | AlanBell, are you using slides today for your session? | 14:24 |
| doctormo | akgraner: What time am I on? | 14:25 |
| akgraner | doctormo, 1700 UTC | 14:25 |
| AlanBell | akgraner: I am not going to do anything special with lernid or anything, might just refer to some links as I go along | 14:26 |
| doctormo | Tah luv | 14:26 |
| akgraner | AlanBell, okie dokie - that makes it easier | 14:26 |
| akgraner | :-) | 14:26 |
| doctormo | jcastro: That fonts link crashes Firefox in lucid, reproducibly :-/ | 14:27 |
| akgraner | for me anyway - b/c I would have to find someone to make sure Lernid and Classbot are pulling in the information for your slides and I don't know how to do that part... | 14:27 |
| jcastro | popey: pitivi uses submodules in git, so I couldn't import their code into lp. | 14:33 |
| jcastro | popey: other than that, everything else would work, (heh) | 14:33 |
| jcastro | popey: I am going to help the shotwell guys set up this week. | 14:33 |
| duanedesign | thanks for the reminder akgraner. my reminder failed to go off this morning to remind me of app dev week | 14:36 |
| popey | nnice one jcastro | 14:37 |
| akgraner | duanedesign, you are most welcome | 14:37 |
| duanedesign | :) | 14:38 |
| duanedesign | need to start tweeting/denting and an email to the Beginners Team ML to pass on the reminder | 14:38 |
| akgraner | classbot will start doing that soon as well - but yep that's a good idea :-) | 14:40 |
| akgraner | jcastro, cc'd you on the reminder email to the session leaders for today | 14:56 |
| jcastro | okey dokey! | 14:57 |
| jcastro | lol I guess I better check on the OW speakers | 14:57 |
| akgraner | jcastro, speaking of OW did you see my email to you about that | 14:57 |
| jcastro | yeah didn't we talk about that last week? | 14:57 |
| akgraner | I know you were looking for new session leads but is it ok to send it out to the past session leaders | 14:58 |
| jcastro | man, only one post on my call for instructors on the forums. :( | 14:58 |
| akgraner | not about that that I recall | 14:58 |
| jcastro | oh yeah, I believe I read that last night and was supposed to tell you something like "you've done like 5 of these there's no reason to ask me for permission for anything" | 14:58 |
| jcastro | :) | 14:58 |
| jcastro | aka. go ahead! | 14:58 |
