[22:44] hey persia. You may not remember me ( in fact, I would be shocked if you did ) -- I asked about helping Ubuntu Studio in like 2008-ish? I did not know much MOTU stuff, so I never got involved. I'm OK at it now, and I was wondering how I can help. [22:45] for -N cycle, my -M stuff is pretty locked up [22:45] paultag: So we meet again. :D [22:45] astraljava, howdy there :) [22:45] astraljava, I'm about to do a lot more MOTU stuff next cycle :) [22:46] paultag: I'm hoping too. [22:46] paultag: Already meant to this cycle, but life got in the way. [22:46] mm! [22:47] I got stuck with a lot of Community stuff this cycle [22:47] happy to do it, but still [22:47] I got stuck with the house, the puppy, work and studies. :D [22:47] puppy astraljava ? [22:47] Yeah, a bichon frisé. :D [22:48] Sleeping under my bed as I type. :D [22:48] i would love to have a newfoundlan..... [22:48] rlameiro: Oh boy they're great! [22:48] indeeeeeed [22:48] I habe a friend with 2!! [22:48] rlameiro: I'd love myself a bernese mountain dog. [22:48] Wow! [22:48] everytime I went to is home i had to secure myself [22:48] Heheh. :D [22:49] the male took me dont to the floor when he saw me [22:49] :D [22:49] Bwahaha! [22:49] he was so happy, then start to run towards me [22:50] and i was on the flor the next second with him drwaling on my face [22:50] They're awesome. [22:50] I knew of one who wouldn't hear any commands, but was there on instant when the fridge door was opened. :D [22:50] yes they are [22:50] I like labradors too, and German Dog [22:51] lol [22:51] I'd love to take up a challenge and bring up a rottweiler, but my wife isn't too happy about it. [22:52] We had a golden retriever before. He was Golden! [22:52] i really dont like to much rottweilers [22:52] they were breed to fight... [22:52] They're superbe, [22:52] -e [22:52] once properly trained. [22:52] newfoundland were breed to save lives [22:52] No no, not to fight, but to protect. [22:53] They seldom have to fight. [22:53] astraljava: protecting killing... [22:53] Nooo... [22:53] if you train them well, they are good dogs, but their nature is very agressive towards others [22:53] They rarely have to show any force. Normally it's enough that they show their presence. [22:53] not very good when you have a comming child and stuf [22:54] But they never harm children, they know what's a real threat and what's child's play. :) [22:54] well, thas true [22:54] ...if trained properly. [22:54] That's what I'd wanna do. [22:55] my frinds dog breeder, had a lot of lucky, his baby son was saved by is newfoundland [22:55] I've seen them being pulled by their ears and tails by children, they hardly pay any attention. [22:55] the baby was chocking on the bed when he was sleep [22:55] That's awesome! They're wonderful like that! [22:55] the dog run as crazy to the wife and pull her arm to the room [22:56] the baby was already starting to be blue... [22:56] it was close [22:56] Man, crazy stuff. [22:56] and it is a GINORMOUS dog :D [22:56] Indeed. [22:56] well, the german dog is bigger [22:56] You take him seriously. [22:57] You mean German Shepherd? I don't think so. [22:57] not the sheperd, that is small [22:57] letme search [22:57] "small" [22:57] :D [22:57] You mean the great dane? [22:58] That's danish, not german. :D [22:58] astraljava: DEUTSCH DOGGEN [22:59] astraljava: http://www.google.com/images?hl=pt-PT&safe=off&q=DEUTSCHE+DOGGE&um=1&ie=UTF-8&source=univ&ei=qhOhTO6HAt-M4gaJltTlDQ&sa=X&oi=image_result_group&ct=title&resnum=1&ved=0CC8QsAQwAA&biw=1440&bih=638 [22:59] this is a big dog :D [22:59] So yeah, the great dane. [23:00] Wonder why it's called the deutsch doggen, I always thought it's danish. Oh well... *shrug* [23:01] Interesting read, the wikipedia article. [23:02] astraljava: you really like dosgs :D [23:07] rlameiro: You can tell? :D [23:07] noooooooo, [23:55] paultag, My guess of areas that would benefit from stuff would be 1) review and cleanup of bugs against packages installed by any of the major Ubuntu Studio tasks, 2) help keep the same set of packages fresh in terms of upstream, and coordinated (addressing seemingly odd annoyances like why one has to do similar actions in mutiple places: why one application doesn't know enough about another, etc.), or deeper documentation.
