[08:59] <thorwil> ivanka: good morning! web media buttons for the free culture showcase: what do you have in mind there, exactly?
[09:02] <ivanka> thorwil: 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.
[09:04] <ivanka> I think I have finally caught up with all my email so should get on to writing up all the docs we agreed in the session
[09:04] <ivanka> What do you think?
[09:05] <thorwil> ivanka: 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" badge
[09:06] <ivanka> thorwil: I think the latter might have the effect of the former :-)
[09:06] <ivanka> but I think we should discuss it when we have all the formalities nailed
[09:06] <thorwil> ok
[09:06] <ivanka> thorwil: I think we can make this quite energised, fun and cool
[09:06] <ivanka> but first, I need a tea! :-)
[09:07] <doctormo> Morhing thorwil and ivanka
[09:07] <thorwil> hmm, shall i try hitting the list with notes from the session and ask for ideas for a theme?
[09:08] <thorwil> hi doctormo
[09:08] <ivanka> hi doctormo
[09:09] <doctormo> thorwil: Two themes are needed, one common base theme and one high brow theme.
[09:09] <ivanka> thorwil: why not - let's see what inspiration comes through
[09:09] <thorwil> doctormo: could you expand on that?
[09:10] <doctormo> Like "ocean" is "terrifying freedom" :-P
[09:10] <doctormo> But there was an idea to pick one of Marks brand talking points and start fromt here for the high brow theme.
[09:17]  * thorwil has mixed feeling about what Mr. Baer is doing
[10:43] <doctormo> thorwil: 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] <doctormo> It makes it seem like we've all come to an agreement.
[10:44] <thorwil> doctormo: yeah. can hardly argue with using the wiki for now, but his choice of flickr is problematic
[10:45] <doctormo> thorwil: 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] <doctormo> ivanka: What are your thoughts on leadership of the community team?
[10:53] <thorwil> nobody 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, admittedly
[10:54] <thorwil> so in the logo case, i could say: no flickr, use attachments, perhaps. but that is no answer for wallpapers and such
[10:57] <thorwil> doctormo: 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 possible
[10:57] <doctormo> thorwil: You have the option of using the cchost site.
[10:58] <doctormo> I understand, I defer to your wisdom.
[10:58] <thorwil> no wait
[10:59] <thorwil> seems attempt at multitasking made me forget about the cchost site
[11:00] <thorwil> doctormo: so http://art.ubuntu-owl.org/ is ready for actual use?
[11:05] <thorwil> heh, there's even http://art.ubuntu-owl.org/files/jbaer/21
[11:28] <doctormo> thorwil: It's about as close as it's going to get apart from the svg thumbnail generator and that's just drop in replacement.
[17:22] <thorwil> of 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-schedule
