drubinsuperfly: ping about planet feed on ubuntu-za maia's feed seems very very wonky16:58
superflydrubin: yes, it is. it's blogger's fault16:58
superflyblogger/blogspot.com16:59
drubinsuperfly: It doesn't seem to be ;/ looking at the rss feed16:59
drubinhttp://my-ubuntu-day.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default16:59
drubinin there it is correct but on our list it seems funky 16:59
superflydrubin: perhaps blogpost has fixed their feed17:00
drubinmaybe.... but it has happened a few times before.17:00
drubinwith a few peoples feeds.17:00
drubinok only really maia's17:00

drubins/links/title links/17:02
superflyfixed17:06
drubinsuperfly: what was wrong?17:07
superflythere's something funky with either the Atom feed or the aggregator module17:07
drubinsuperfly: So what did you do?17:07
superflyso I just used the RSS feed, and then cleared and re-ran the feed importer17:07
drubinye think there might be something dodgy there because she is the only one on rss I think17:08
drubinMaaz: superfly ++ [Fixing blogs and feeds]17:09
tumbleweeddrubin: what has python-apt got to do with sa repos?17:50
tumbleweedif you want sa repos in "software sources" they must be registered on LP and request "official" status17:51
drubintumbleweed: Ye I reported a bug.. and was told that. ;17:53
drubintumbleweed: data comes from /usr/share/python-apt/templates/Ubuntu.mirrors so I assumed it was python-apt :)17:53
tumbleweedaah cool17:54
drubintumbleweed: I registered ftp.wa.co.za but now thinking I should have asked them first17:55
tumbleweedhrm I think I've registered other ZA mirrors in the past17:56
tumbleweedyou can hand them over easily enough17:57
tumbleweedyes, drop them a mail, they are relatively nice17:57
tumbleweedsorry for the delay, /me is in the middle of nowhere in the karoo17:57
drubintumbleweed: No worries. do you know the WA contact?17:58
drubinelse I will emails morgs to ask him he seems to have set it up./17:58
tumbleweeddrubin: PM18:00
tumbleweedI think I found him via launchpad. You sure it wasn't already registered?18:01
drubintumbleweed: No it wasn't registered.18:01
tumbleweedhmm, wonder how I found him then18:01
drubinhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+mirror/ftp.wa.co.za-archive 18:02
drubinsee I created it18:02
drubinI will email him tomorrow asking him.18:02
drubinbecause it is on the freezone it is awesome to have it officially listed18:02
