=== vampiricpadraig is now known as VampiricPadraig [08:44] morning [08:44] good to see UH Limerick venue is confirmed. [08:44] :) [08:44] whoo [08:47] whoo indeed [08:48] hopefully get the details from infoturtle later and get the event set up on the LoCo Directory. [08:49] nods [08:49] I'll be online on the saturday [08:49] so an help [08:49] remotely [08:51] looking forward to it [08:52] although will miss munster vs leinster in Limerick [08:52] :( [08:52] oh [08:52] the things I do for Ubuntu [08:52] shall have to watch it stramed [08:52] *streamed [08:53] didn't get to use magners league season ticket once this year [08:53] :( [08:53] aww [08:53] I guess somtimes that's just the way it's going to fall [08:53] I might be flying home on the saturday night [08:53] Still not sure [08:53] business or pleasure? [08:54] pleasure [08:54] mothers day [08:54] oh yeah [08:55] I took both sat and sun off next weekend tor both UGJ and mothers day. [17:03] hello hello, been way too long since I last logged on :O [22:46] airurando: ping [22:50] thethomaseffect: hi [22:50] what can I do for you? [22:51] airurando, was thinking of throwing together a more modern theme for the ubuntu-ie tonight, are all the graphics on the ubuntu.org website free or would i have to design from scratch? [22:52] thethomaseffect, I'm not the best guy to talk to on this. [22:53] as far as I am aware infoturtle is working on the website. [22:54] for the ubuntu-ie.org website I believe the best way forward is with the new ubuntu logo [22:54] Ah okay, cheers [22:55] yeah the colors aren't exactly up to date and the images are a big low res, the UK site looks great so we should really have something similar [22:55] bit* [22:56] It wouldn't be a big job so I could just whip something together a drop a demo in the mailing list? [22:58] thethomaseffect, yes, your views are exactly in line with mine. [22:58] I strongly suggest you chat with infoturtle [22:58] any idea when they'll be on? [22:58] also suggest you attend the next IRC meeting [22:59] its a bit hit and miss with infoturtle. [22:59] will do, shall set a reminder in google calendar now [22:59] usually he is on here at night [23:00] thethomaseffect: where are you based? [23:00] Galway right now, for the next five weeks anyways [23:00] just to let you know [23:01] Ubuntu Global Jam is next weekend [23:01] there will be events in Limerick and Dublin next Saturday. [23:01] If you could attend either that would be great [23:02] face to face meeting is best for discussing ideas [23:02] Saw that, but unfortunately so is mothers day and I have a project due the monday after, it's already killing my time to head home :( [23:03] yeah, life takes priority. :) [23:03] It's a shame, I couldn't go for some reason last year as well :( [23:04] not to worry, they run twice a year. In line with the release cycle. [23:04] about a month before each release. [23:05] I'll defo attend the next one, it's well overdue [23:05] I definitely encourage you to follow up on your website ideas with infoturtle and at the next IRC meeting. [23:06] trying to get a bit more active in the ubuntu community, hoping to be skilled enough to do something big for Google summer of code 2012 [23:06] If you can get a chance go to an Ubuntu Hour in limerick also. infoturtle is at those. [23:07] it's such a small job i'll have something of a prototype done by Monday at the least [23:07] thethomaseffect: great stuff. [23:07] Yeah there's an idea, I have friends I've been meaning to visit down in Limerick anyways :) [23:07] Keep in touch here on IRC [23:08] keep up to date with happenings on ubuntu-ie.org [23:09] and on http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-ie [23:09] I should be idleing here pretty much 24/7 for the summer, hoping to work with wordpress for summer of code, had never bothered installing an IRc client in windoze till today [23:10] nice talking to you. [23:10] yeah same :) [23:10] really hope the website gets a facelift soon with your help. :) [23:13] thethomaseffect: when you get a mockup together definitely do send a link to the list. [23:14] airurando: I think it' important that the site doesn't look alien when compared with official stuff so it's going to be pretty similer to the ubuntu.org site. Though if I can I'll work in some rich purple. I love purple :) [23:16] purple is nice but orange is better. [23:16] I always like to have two projects on the go at any time, so if i get sick of one I can do some of the other for a while. Drupal stuff is so so nice compared to bloody OO programming [23:16] you are right of course. [23:17] airurando: Both is nicest http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/ [23:17] aye [23:18] thethomaseffect: another person I strongly suggest you talk to in relation to this is czajkowski. [23:19] czajkowski is heavily involved with the ubuntu community and a member of the irish team. [23:19] airurando: I would have done but she is away, have talked to ebel on stuff like this before also [23:20] I value her opinion highly. [23:20] what did ebel say? [23:21] I mentioned something like this at a LoCo meeting about a year back and got the go ahead but then my free time took a nosedive and then i sort of forgot about it to be honest [23:22] ebel gave me admin access on the site at the time, i fixed something with the capcha if my memory serves well [23:23] must admit I'm not the best with the technicalities [23:23] I know we are trying to get the site transferred to blacknight which will give us better wiggle room with format. [23:26] I'm 99% certain the site isn't running the latest version of drupal, since i installed drupal 7 a few hours ago and the administration is a lot more like wordpress, so an upgrade might be an idea also (Which I could do, i'll mention it at the next IRC meeting) [23:26] blacknight are meant to be a great host [23:26] Aloha [23:27] you rang [23:27] from my limited knowledge you are dead right about the drupal thing [23:27] hi czajkowski [23:27] can I introduce thethomaseffect. [23:28] thethomaseffect: howdy [23:28] czajkowski I reckon you'd be better able to guide thethomaseffect. :) [23:29] czajkowski: Hallo, it's johnnycbad, only just realized I'm using a different IRC nick! my bad! [23:29] ah ok how can I help [23:29] ahhhh howdy [23:29] hows college going [23:29] *facepalm* :D [23:29] ah indeed [23:30] Great acually, only about 2 weeks left now, have a really good lecturer who's given us some cool challenging projects this semester [23:30] how's the new job overseas? [23:31] good thanks [23:31] just in from dinner [23:31] so heading to bed [23:31] what was I being poked about? [23:31] airurando: Sorry I never mentioned, only just realized and thought you'd all forgotten about me :D [23:32] czajkowski: Was going to throw together an updated theme for the ubuntu-ie website tonight [23:32] czajkowski: also, does drupal need upgrading because i wouldn't mind doing that in the next week or so [23:33] it might be counter productive making a theme for a legecy version [23:33] ah ok [23:33] well you should have the pwd still [23:34] yeah i still have all the permissions i need [23:35] i'll get cracking on that so! [23:36] ok [23:36] nn [23:37] night [23:42] night thethomaseffect [23:42] night czajkowski [23:44] I'm not going :P
