[01:13] <edubuntu> sup?
[01:18] <rww> hi
[01:18] <rww> ubottu: tell edubuntu about membership
[01:18] <rww> edubuntu: please don't PM people without asking ;)
[01:23] <rww> http://paste.ubuntu.com/565638/
[01:23] <rww> what the eff o.O
[01:24] <JanC> hehe
[01:25] <JanC> there might be some translation issue too  ;)
[01:26] <rww> If you can find a plausible translation of that that isn't "I don't want to actually do anything, but help me get Ubuntu Membership anyway!", I'd be amused to hear it ;P
[01:29] <persia> Could be "I have no idea what sort of thing to do to help Ubuntu: please be my mentor"
[01:30] <persia> In some communities "spoil" means "guide" or "help"
[01:41] <rww> If that's the case, then English is even sillier than I thought.
[01:42] <JanC> could also be Ubuntu Member vs. a member of the Ubuntu community (more in general) or some other "membership" related to Ubuntu
[01:42] <persia> English is infinitely siily.
[01:43] <JanC> and that person clearly didn't speak English very well
[01:43] <persia> It started being the language used to order beer by conquerors, went through a phase where it was considered stylish to never spell the same word twice on the same page, and since has reveled in unnecessary neologisms
[01:43] <rww> I sometimes suspect it started as a practical joke.
[01:44] <persia> Nah.  It's (mostly) french mercenaries attempting to speak something akin to german in an age of mass illiteracy.
[01:45] <JanC> french with a partially scandinavian background  ;)
[01:45] <persia> Indeed: that french is horribly influenced by centuries of coastal raiding :)
[01:49] <JanC> oh, and probably some flemish too, as William the Conqueror was married to a Flemish princess who brought her own servants to his castle  ;)
[02:03] <persia> There wasn't such meaningful difference between flemish and german at that point, it was before the germans were consolidated (pre-literacy)
[11:29] <xdatap> hi guys. I would like the Ubuntu Member cloak. My Launchpad profile: https://launchpad.net/~xdatap1
[12:34] <vish> xdatap: you'll have to wait for one of the IRCC members to be around to approve the cloak.. :)
[12:36] <topyli> xdatap: one sec
[12:36] <xdatap> vish, ok, no problem, thanks for the anwer :)
[12:36] <topyli> need to poke a... oh hi nhandler!
[12:37] <nhandler> topyli: Need me?
[12:37] <topyli> staff for xdatap's cloaking ceremony :)
[12:38] <nhandler> xdatap: You are now cloaked
[12:38] <topyli> thanks nhandler
[12:39] <vish> yay! "ircc" highlights work :D
[12:39] <topyli> vish: yep :)
[12:39] <xdatap> thanks topyli  and nhandler :)
[12:39] <nhandler> b:)
[12:40] <xdatap> and vish of course :)
[12:40] <vish> can we mention that as "..ask IRCC" on the wiki itself https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Cloaks ? so that folks would know who to ping?
[12:40] <topyli> vish: nhandler has some advanced hilight ping system apparently. wasn't even online when you pinged!
[12:41] <vish> yea.. he is weird! but i was able to break his highlight system atleast once :D
[12:41] <nhandler> vish: It isn't a requirement and not all do it. I also think most of us are pretty good about checking this channel when we notice activity (the issue is when none of the council is around)
[12:42] <vish> k.. :)
[17:02] <xdatap> nhandler, hello
[17:05] <xdatap> Hi guys, anybody from IRCC online? This morning i got my cloak, but it's mispelled
[17:05] <Pici> heh
[17:05] <m4v> haha
[17:06] <xdatap> :)
[17:07] <Pici> xdatap: Do you know which staffer applied the cloak?
[17:07] <xdatap> nhandler, if i remember well
[17:07]  * k1l points at nhandler
[17:09] <Pici> jussi/tsimpson? ^
[17:09] <xdatap> my launchpad profile is: https://launchpad.net/people/xdatap1
[17:10] <Pici> marienz: I suppose you can't help with this unless the request actually comes from GC, right?
[17:11] <marienz> "membmer"?
[17:11] <marienz> curious. Give me a moment.
[17:11] <Pici> Yeah.  I'm not a GC anymore, so I can't authorize it.
[17:12]  * marienz decides having the original cloak request in his scrollback is good enough
[17:13] <xdatap> thanks marienz :)
[17:14] <jussi> xdatap: Hiya Paolo :)
[17:14] <jussi> marienz: if you had any doubt, Im ok with it :) :)
[17:14] <xdatap> hey Jussi! :)
[21:24] <sense> How do you make XChat (GNOME) export its logs in the weechat format that is needed for the MoinMoin IRC parser?
[21:26] <erUSUL> sense: you should ask in a xachat channel but i doubt xchat supports weechat format ...
[21:26] <erUSUL> sense: maybe you can transform one in the other with some sed/awk/perl/python/whatever ....
[21:27] <m4v> I even wonder if moinmoin does support weechat format, I use weechat but I had to convert it to irssi format
[21:27] <sense> erUSUL: Ok, thanks I'll look in an Xchat channel.
[21:27] <m4v> last time I put some logs in the wiki
[21:29] <sense> m4v: <http://moinmo.in/HelpOnParsers#diff.2C_cplusplus.2C_python.2C_java.2C_pascal.2C_irc.2BAC8-irssi_parsers>
[21:29] <sense> See the IRC entry in the table
[21:29] <sense> That is the {{{#irc }}} thing
[21:31] <m4v> I did read the help, but it didn't work when I tried it in wiki.ubuntu.com I don't know, maybe I didn't use the syntax right, but the thing confused me enough that when I saw it worked with irssi format I just used that.
[21:33] <m4v> and I was (still I am) surprised to see weechatlog and not other more common clients.
[21:34] <sense> apparently it is some sort of standard
[21:36] <m4v> the wee-standard?
[21:43] <sense> I think so.
[21:43] <sense> It is associated with a mime-type, according to that MoinMoin page.
[23:05] <JanC> sense: how does the "weechat logs" look like?
[23:06] <sense> JanC: Apparently something like the source of <http://wiki.ubuntu-nl.org/community/Meetings/Meeting20110110/Log>.
[23:06] <JanC> you can more or less define how xchat logs everything using a printf template
[23:06] <persia> And you can probably use a text processor like sed or perl to convert one format into another.
[23:06] <JanC> if the necessary data is available, yes
[23:07] <JanC> which looks like it shouldn't be an issue
[23:07] <JanC> that format is weird also
[23:07] <JanC> with the space in the nick?
[23:08] <sense> That doesn't seem to be a requirement for MoinMoin's parser. ;)
[23:10] <JanC> I doubt this is a standard moinmoin parser
[23:10] <JanC> sounds more like something somebody hacked togeteher at some point  ;)
[23:10] <JanC> probably Seveas  ;)
[23:11] <JanC> or maybe some other early Ubuntu IRC person
[23:56] <tsimpson> the space before the nick is probably to hold the voiced/opped flag (+/@)
