akgraner<doctormo> akgraner: How would I become a source of Ubuntu News? How would I be able to automatically feed ubuntu-related announcement blog entries directly there? For the art community etc.00:03

akgranerdoctormo, if these are going to be on your blog - I'll subscribe directly to it for the short term00:07
akgranerlong term we'll figure it out00:07
doctormoakgraner: where is the code for the new fridge?00:08
nhandlerdoctormo: It is wordpress00:08
akgranerwe used the bzr branch that stas gave me for the theme00:08
nhandlerakgraner: Are we going to leave that dummy Ubuntu account around for people to submit stories for review by us?00:09
nhandlerThat account can enter stories/save them, but not publish them00:09
akgranerwe need to00:09
akgranerunless you have a better idea?00:10
doctormoakgraner: where is your editorial inbox?00:10
akgranerubuntu-news-team00:10
nhandlerakgraner: Well, we don't "need" to do anything ;) But I was in favor of having the account in the first place (which is why I made it ;) ).00:11
akgranerawesome - check that off the list of needed things00:11
akgraner:-)00:11
akgranerwe have editor.ubuntu.news@gmail.com - I need to file an RT to have it editor.ubuntu.news@ubuntu.com - I'll send the details to those fridge editors who want to have access00:20
akgranerwe need a mumble channel for the news team - so we can just talk to each other and just get stuff done without typing all this01:03
akgranerwonder how hard it is to set up a mumble on a server01:04
* holstein has a mumble server01:17
holsteinakgraner:01:17
holstein^^01:18
holsteindepending on when you need it01:18
holsteinits mostly empty01:18
akgranerholstein, sweet01:48
nhandlerakgraner: I also had registered ubuntu.news.team@gmail.com03:35
akgraner:-)03:36
popeyakgraner: reply from corey, he didnt setup twitter/ubuntunews11:11
akgranerpopey, ok - hmmm12:18
akgranermaybe bruno?12:19
akgranerI'll email him and see12:20
akgranerI meant beuno - DOH!12:28
akgranerI should not be typing  - ugh :-/12:29
akgranersent12:29
akgranernhandler, when you get a chance can you track down or maybe you have a list already of the UWN/Fridge social media accounts and lets get the recovery email address sent to the admin mailing list (either ubuntu-news and/or ubuntu-news-team) and we need to document that this is who can recover that information12:31
akgranerwow12:31
popeyi wouldn't get them set to the list12:47
popeythe list is public, it would be trivial for someone to hijack the accounts that way12:47
nigelbpopey: it would hit moderation and moderators can delete it.12:48
nigelb(after opening it of course)12:49
popeyyes, and moderators never accidentially let a mail through? :)12:49
popeyi would perhaps register a new gmail address 'ubuntusocialmedia@gmail.com' and assign them to that12:49
nigelbakgraner suggested a private mailing list12:50
nigelband all forgets can be set to that id12:50
nigelball cc members could be members of that list12:50
nigelb(the whole hit by bus factor decreases)12:50
popeysorry, i saw akgraner mention a public list12:51
akgranerpopey my point to the list was the minute it hits the moderation list - the pw gets changed12:51
nigelbpopey: um, that was on -community-team12:51
akgranerbut yes that was my 1st thought in my frustrated brainstorming of what to do going forward12:52
akgranerthen I refined the idea12:52
popeyok, ignore me12:52
akgraner:-)12:52
popeyi hadnt read the other channell12:52
akgranerpopey, I never ignore you12:52
akgraneryou bring up great counter points in ways that don't make me want to strangle you - but actually listen to what you have to say12:53
akgraner;:-)12:53
akgraner:-)12:53
* nigelb huggggs pop12:53
popeylol12:53
nigelbthat was fail12:57
akgranerok I am banging my head on the keyboard - I need to get ready to take my daughter to her band competition  - can someone work on this for me - I'm bringing my computer with me to the competition but it will be a few hours now before I am back on line13:28
akgranerhttps://docs.google.com/document/edit?id=1qng-ugKHGAo74OJ-XxXgKLUdjYPpDKOb0fCu_Ht_e3U&hl=en&authkey=CPyIx8wK13:28
akgranerit's the we're moving announcement13:29
akgranerI wanted to make sure people know the history and some of the reasons for this change13:30
akgranerIf not I'll work on it in a few hours!13:30
akgranerpopey, et all - thanks for your help on tracking down the twitter stuff13:31
akgranerNick is working on getting the buttons and new Logo added - I'll touch base with him in a little while13:31
nigelbpopey: do you know what amber means by "NEED LINK TO THE WIKI PAGE FROM THE PAST EFFORTS" about drupal to wordpress?14:03
nigelbakgraner: ^^ if you're still around, let me know :)14:03
popeyno idea14:17
internalkernelalourie: I dumped a couple links in ITP, I didnt have as much time this week with my feeds so I only found two... feel free to add any that you came across. Thanks!14:37
nhandlerakgraner: I made a few changes15:13
popeythere are some duplicate links on the right of the site15:32
nigelbI made a few spell changes16:17
akgranerthanks - the wiki page  - it's been added now17:25
akgranerNot sure what else we need to put in the announcement17:25
akgranerCan you all think of anything else that should go into it17:26
akgranerI gotta shut down my computer for a while - about to go interview band people for the press release - If the we're moving looks ok can an editor please publish it17:57
akgranernewz2000, if you are around can you review the announcement as well please17:57
akgranerbbiab then :-)17:59
akgranerthanks y'all17:59
newz2000Ok, I've answered all of the IS team's questions and given them clear instructions. That does not mean that it will happen exactly as described though19:55
newz2000Some people feel it would be better to create a landing page on fridge that links to ubuntu-news.org.19:55
newz2000It is in their hands now.19:55
* nhandler is publishing the announcement19:55
nhandlerakgraner: I sent the post to ubuntu-news-team as well. I also think that we should make an exception and send it to ubuntu-news@. This is a major change to one of the 2 core news projects (UWN being the other)20:12
nhandlerakgraner: I also stuck the announcement to the top of the fridge.20:13
nhandlerakgraner: newz2000: Can I safely start updating references to the fridge calendar to use the version on the new site?21:22
newz2000akgraner: yes, I think you should, but be aware that for a few days there may appear to be two sites.21:41
nhandlerakgraner: Also, what is 'This Week's News' under 'More Resources'? I removed the links there for the fridge and the calendars since they are already on the fridge and the calendar is linked to from 'Pages'21:46
nhandlerakgraner: And are we going to use the 'Submit Ubuntu News?' box or have them use the 'ubuntu' account?21:47
