AlanBelljcastro: until the https is fixed can you change the link in the footer to http://uds.ubuntu.com/harassment/ rather than https://uds.ubuntu.com/harassment/17:33
jcastrosure17:37
jcastrojono: where in wp is the harassment link defined?17:39
nigelbjcastro: should be a widget of some kind I guess17:41
jcastroaha found it!17:42

AlanBellis sponsorship open yet jcastro?18:02
nigelbthat's like a geek version of 'Are we there yet?'18:03
jcastrono18:21
jcastroIt'll be open when Jono announces UDS18:21
pleia2thanks jcastro18:25
Pendulumjcastro: I haven't checked, but you might want to see if it's possible to make it clear that sponsorship isn't open since I've already seen a blog post from someone saying they applied for sponsorship18:45
doctormopleia2: are you going to UDS this year?18:45
jcastrocjohnston: you applied for a fix for that right?18:46
jcastroit says on the site that it's not open, I don't know if that got deployed though18:46
pleia2doctormo: hoping to :)18:47
pleia2my boss gave me the green light, I'm applying for sponsorship18:47
paultagpleia2: woo :)18:47
doctormopleia2: I don't think I'll apply for sponsorship, I know for certain that I haven't done anything in Canonical's focus.18:49
doctormoBut I still might be able to convince my wife to come with me and have a nice time of it.18:49
Pendulumdoctormo: tell her the Hungarian Baths are nice ;)18:50
pleia2doctormo: well, be sure to let me know if you are still interested in heading up a community sponsorship thing, I can help out18:50
doctormopleia2: kickstarter project?18:50
pleia2doctormo: whatever you did last time to get a few community folks there18:50
doctormojcastro: Can you get us details of the hotel/specific location, even before you go public with it?18:51
jcastroit's on the web site18:51
jcastrohttp://uds.ubuntu.com/travel/18:51
doctormoThat's helpful.18:52
doctormopleia2: Last time was much more of a trial to see if this sort of thing would be possible. A learning experence.18:52
pleia2doctormo: well if it's a trial you're willing to repeat, let me know :)18:53
doctormoThere are two parts, first is finding alternative accomedation close enough to the Canonical hotel. Cheap enough.18:53
doctormoThe second part is raising money to fly people and pay for that accomedation. That's were the kickstarter project comes in.18:53
pleia2ah, gotcha18:53
paultagMan, it's been a long day18:56
macojcastro: another suggestion is when it's only open for testing putting TESTING real big on it so people aren't confused.  a bunch of kubuntu dev folks thought it was open and tried to actually apply18:56
jcastrowell, currently summit just lets people apply18:57
jcastrocjohnston fixed it but I don't think it's deployed18:57
jcastrothough I don't see any practical reason as to why it matters when people apply, it doesn't sort them by date or anything19:04
doctormopleia2: I would like your advice on what we should do, both?19:04
jcastroso if you apply now or in 2 weeks it's the same19:04
jcastroother than popey and greg's qwekjfhsdlkg-esque applications which are likely them just seeing if worked19:04
pleia2doctormo: yeah both, and we can probably ask the ubuntu-hu folks for help with the first (I know at least one woman from the team who speaks english)19:05
doctormopleia2: OK, so we'll do this as so: If you can contact the person that you know, document as much useful information about nearby hotels and accomedation (inclusing hostals, villas, couches etc)19:08
doctormoI'm going to contact some of the debian people to get the money thing started.19:09
jcastroI've got a todo to look into buses and stuff19:09
pleia2doctormo: added to my todo list!19:09
doctormopleia2: A page similar to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UDS-N/OtherAccommodation will be good for noting everything19:09
pleia2ok, will do19:09
AlanBellThe Ubuntu For All project that has been dormant for some time is being kicked into life again19:20
AlanBellit is a kind of meta project or support group for various teams making Ubuntu more inclusive19:20
AlanBellIRC channel is at #ubuntu-for-all and wiki page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuForAll19:21
TechnovikingGoing to make a "I love the Ubuntu Forums" short for popey:)20:53
popey:)20:53
Technovikings/short/shirt:)20:54
jcastro I thought popey hated everything?21:17
popeyI love Chai Latte. The exception which proves the rule.21:21
PendulumTechnoviking: so that will go along with this "I love the Ubuntu Wiki" t-shirt, then?21:23
jcastroI love 403 errors!21:23
TechnovikingPendulum: Maybe "I Love (if the) Ubuntu Wiki (got better servers, so it isn't so slows, although it is better than LaunchPad)"21:24
Technoviking:)21:24
macoTechnoviking: s/Wiki/Forums/21:25
doctormoTechnoviking: Don't you mean "I Love (if the) Ubuntu Wiki (used zapian indexing instead of regex searches on text files)21:25
doctormoA lot of Canonical website tech is dogged by indexing issues.21:25
macoTechnoviking: though that substitution would require getting rid of "although it is better than LaunchPad"21:26
macodoctormo: all that python....21:26
doctormomaco: Not quite, it's all that "not understanding the difference between NoSQL, SQL, field and full text indexes"21:27
doctormoIt's like when jcastro and jono advocate quickly with couchdb... it's great, up until the time you try and query a 3 million line database.21:27
AlanBellwith map-reduce that is super quick21:28
doctormoWhere it promply falls apart as it tries to do a regex on a GB file.21:28
jcastroI've done no such thing!21:28
AlanBellbrute force, not so fast21:28
doctormojcastro: I was being flippent, applogies.21:28
jcastroTechnoviking: did the new forum hw get installed?21:31
Technovikingjcastro: I think IS hopes to live Wednesday21:35
