cjohnstonthanks newz200014:54
newz2000my pleasure14:54
knomecjohnston, you are leading the wiki efforts?16:03
cjohnstonthe redesign?16:08
knomewell, anything related to wiki16:19
newz2000As my dad always said, "lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way."16:36
newz2000Regarding the wiki theme, I'd say everyone so far falls into the "follow" or "get the hell out of the way" categories16:37
knomewell anyway16:37
knome1:16:37
newz2000:-)16:37
knomethe wiki is slow, FIX IT16:37
knome2:16:37
knomewould you allow an own theme for xubuntu, for example in wiki.xubuntu.org (much like kubuntu)16:37
newz2000there is discussion and in theory some work on getting the wiki migrated to 1.9 which should help with the performance and the errors people see16:38
newz2000regarding xubuntu theme, I don't feel strongly that it is a necessity, similarly I'm not convinced kubuntu should be done as it is16:39
newz2000having two domains that look diff  but point to the same content causes probs16:39
knomeyeah, exactly what i guessed.16:40
knomethen you have only one option.16:40
knomemake the wiki so snappy it is usable.16:40
newz2000you make it sound so easy. ;-)16:40
knomeyeah, i know!16:41
knomewhat does 'work in theory' mean when we're talking about the wiki migration?16:43
knome"never happens" or "happens in 2013" ?16:43
knomeno really, sorry if i'm offensive, but the wiki has been useless to xubuntu for all the 3 years i've been working with xubuntu.16:43
knomethis needs to change, or we need an own wiki.16:44
knomei wonder how the slowness of the wiki has been overlooked so long that the situation is what it is now16:46
Ronnieis it already clear, in what extend the loco.ubuntu.com and websites from local communities, may (and may not) follow these guidelines http://design.canonical.com/the-toolkit/guides-for-websites/17:03
knomenewz2000, are you the right person to ask for our options (if there are any apart from sticking with the ubuntu wiki, or somebody else?)17:07
newz2000knome: someone in the xubuntu community is going ot have to push for a change if they want it.17:08
newz2000I might be able to help more if I knew what the goal was17:08
knomegoal is to get a more responsive wiki, really.17:08
newz2000oh, that17:09
newz2000AlanBell has an RT open and I've heard the community council is discussing it17:09
AlanBellthey did ask, wonder if they got an answer . . .17:10
knomeanswer for what? getting the wiki updated?17:10
knomereally, the wiki is *a joke*17:11
knomeand i definitely can see why the people behind it do not want to answer to anything...17:11
knome:P17:11
AlanBellknome: yes17:16
knomeAlanBell, okay, do you have any other information on the issue?17:16
cjohnstonstas: ping18:07
AlanBellknome: the IS team should have been working on upgrading the canonical wiki this week, and in theory they might announce some downtime on the main wiki for the upgrade in the next week or two.21:30
AlanBellbelieve it when you see it21:30
cjohnstonstas: any chance your around? need some assistance with bug 71672622:15
