thorwilivanka: good morning! web media buttons for the free culture showcase: what do you have in mind there, exactly?08:59
ivankathorwil: Good morning! Well, I think we need to create ourselves an identity for the showcase first and then look at the individual items like buttons.09:02
ivankaI think I have finally caught up with all my email so should get on to writing up all the docs we agreed in the session09:04
ivankaWhat do you think?09:04
thorwilivanka: just what i thought looking at the action items. but i don't even recall if the buttons where meant as promotion ("take part in the showcase/contest"), or as a "i took part" badge09:05
ivankathorwil: I think the latter might have the effect of the former :-)09:06
ivankabut I think we should discuss it when we have all the formalities nailed09:06
thorwilok09:06
ivankathorwil: I think we can make this quite energised, fun and cool09:06
ivankabut first, I need a tea! :-)09:06
doctormoMorhing thorwil and ivanka09:07
thorwilhmm, shall i try hitting the list with notes from the session and ask for ideas for a theme?09:07
thorwilhi doctormo09:08
ivankahi doctormo09:08
doctormothorwil: Two themes are needed, one common base theme and one high brow theme.09:09
ivankathorwil: why not - let's see what inspiration comes through09:09
thorwildoctormo: could you expand on that?09:09
doctormoLike "ocean" is "terrifying freedom" :-P09:10
doctormoBut there was an idea to pick one of Marks brand talking points and start fromt here for the high brow theme.09:10
* thorwil has mixed feeling about what Mr. Baer is doing09:17
doctormothorwil: I'm concerned about John Baer announcing on the mailing list that we'll all be using wiki+flickr for art submissions without any discussion.10:43
doctormoIt makes it seem like we've all come to an agreement.10:43
thorwildoctormo: yeah. can hardly argue with using the wiki for now, but his choice of flickr is problematic10:44
doctormothorwil: Will you take leadership of this team and sabdfl the decision on what to use in the interim? I'll trust your decision on the matter.10:45
doctormoivanka: What are your thoughts on leadership of the community team?10:45
thorwilnobody followed what i suggested for the logo, not even Saleel who otherwise does listen to me. but email attachments are even easier than foopics.com, admittedly10:53
thorwilso in the logo case, i could say: no flickr, use attachments, perhaps. but that is no answer for wallpapers and such10:54
thorwildoctormo: i'm inclined to let jbaer run with it, as he does invest time where i don't want to care about the interim solutions as little as possible10:57
doctormothorwil: You have the option of using the cchost site.10:57
doctormoI understand, I defer to your wisdom.10:58
thorwilno wait10:58
thorwilseems attempt at multitasking made me forget about the cchost site10:59
thorwildoctormo: so http://art.ubuntu-owl.org/ is ready for actual use?11:00
thorwilheh, there's even http://art.ubuntu-owl.org/files/jbaer/2111:05
doctormothorwil: It's about as close as it's going to get apart from the svg thumbnail generator and that's just drop in replacement.11:28
thorwilof course he didn't quote the part where i ask for suggestions, being much of the point of my email. http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2010/11/natty-free-culture-showcase-to-have-theme-gets-schedule17:22
