| Pendulum | hi evilduanedesign | 00:15 |
| nigelb | hello nhandler and *gasp* evilduanedesign :p | 00:15 |
| nigelb | evilduanedesign: why are you up at this inhuman hour? :P | 00:16 |
| evilduanedesign | haha | 00:17 |
| evilduanedesign | my VPS keeps running out of RAM so i am using my alternate 'evil' IRCCloud setup | 00:18 |
| evilduanedesign | nigelb: yes it is odd for me to be up at 'normal' U.S. hours :) | 00:19 |
| nigelb | hehe | 00:19 |
| nigelb | evilduanedesign: I usually think you're in dholbach time in my head | 00:19 |
| evilduanedesign | thats just about right | 00:19 |
| evilduanedesign | i have a whole group of Beginners Team mentees who want to be MOTU. Unfortunately that is one thing we are short on at the moment (MOTU Mentors) | 00:21 |
| evilduanedesign | I need to find one or two MOTU's who might want to help mentor this group | 00:22 |
| nigelb | bdrung? | 00:23 |
| nhandler | evilduanedesign: I have no issue reviewing/sponsoring patches, answering questions, and pointing people in the right direction, I just don't have the time to work with someone one-on-one and guide them through everything | 00:24 |
| evilduanedesign | nhandler: right. I might try something like the Bug Squad is doing. Where mentees ask questions on a mailing list and a couple mentors monitor the list and answer questions | 00:26 |
| evilduanedesign | nhandler: thank you nhandler. I am also going to talk to huats and coolbhavi. I'll let you know when i get things a little more sorted | 00:27 |
| nhandler | evilduanedesign: The hardest part imo is finding good bugs to start with. When I did some mentoring in the past, I would go through and find a few good bugs (and set myself as willing to mentor the bug). That is also what persia did with me | 00:28 |
| jcastro | jono: basset hounds are so ugly | 00:44 |
| jcastro | they're like beagles that god forgot to put skin glue on | 00:44 |
| nigelb | lol | 00:45 |
| jono | jcastro, lol | 01:06 |
| nigelb | jcastro: do you have one? | 01:07 |
| jcastro | no | 01:07 |
| jcastro | I have a cat | 01:07 |
| jcastro | which is an entirely different form of evil | 01:08 |
| Pendulum | jcastro: cats are a wonderful type of evil | 01:08 |
| nigelb | jcastro: you mean a cat has you? ;) | 01:09 |
| akgraner | We have a cat now... | 01:09 |
| * Pendulum is so tempted to go out and get a cat | 01:09 | |
| nigelb | oh, akgraner! | 01:09 |
| Pendulum | but I think my parents would not be pleased if they came home to a cat :( | 01:09 |
| nigelb | akgraner: How was tlf? | 01:09 |
| akgraner | good busy | 01:09 |
| nigelb | Pendulum: get a dog | 01:10 |
| nigelb | extra points for gettign him stuck in a sweat shirt ;p | 01:10 |
| akgraner | a lot of good feedback on my talk | 01:10 |
| akgraner | so that was good | 01:10 |
| Pendulum | nigelb: can't take care of a dog. and I actually am a cat person more than a dog person | 01:10 |
| nigelb | akgraner: do you have slides up somewhere? | 01:10 |
| * nigelb disowns Pendulum :P | 01:10 | |
| Pendulum | (not that they'd be any happier if they came home to a dog) | 01:10 |
| akgraner | nigelb, not yet but I will before the week is out... | 01:11 |
| akgraner | I had to take today and tomorrow to get caught up with work - and I am taking Friday off... | 01:11 |
| nigelb | :) | 01:12 |
| * AlanBell has alternative pet suggestion for Pendulum | 06:18 | |
| pleia2 | a narwhal! | 06:20 |
| nigelb | heh | 06:22 |
| nigelb | hey pleia2 | 06:22 |
| pleia2 | g'day nigelb | 06:22 |
| nigelb | I just drove around 60 km from 6 am to 10 am. Sigh. | 06:23 |

| dpm | morning czajkowski, nigelb | 08:30 |
| dholbach | hey dpm | 08:30 |
| dholbach | duanedesign, did you get any feedback on doing development screencasts from the team? | 08:41 |
| nigelb | hey dholbach :) | 08:46 |
| dholbach | hi nigelb | 08:46 |

| dholbach | popey, Technoviking, pleia2: if you have a bit of time, can you help me with the wiki relicensing thing? | 09:12 |
| popey | dholbach: what do you need? | 09:22 |
| dholbach | popey, a review of the announce I wrote and some help with the blurb about why the dual licensing is unnecessary | 09:24 |
| popey | ok | 09:25 |

| vish | poor popey trying to swipe ;p | 09:36 |
| duanedesign | morning all | 12:19 |
| Pendulum | hiya duanedesign | 12:20 |
| duanedesign | hello Pendulum | 12:21 |
| duanedesign | dholbach: a couple volunteers stepped up. I helped jledbetter get her tools all setup and recorded a test screencast | 12:23 |
| dholbach | NICE | 12:23 |
| dholbach | were they on the mailing list? | 12:24 |
| duanedesign | dholbach: one was | 12:24 |
| dholbach | ahh ok :) | 12:24 |
| duanedesign | dholbach: the other pinged me in #ubuntu-screencasts | 12:24 |
| dholbach | great | 12:25 |
| dholbach | is there anything I can help with? | 12:25 |
| nigelb | hey Pendulum | 12:25 |
| dholbach | I'm happy to help writing "the plot" or at least review it | 12:25 |
| duanedesign | yaa, i found a script to search Launchpad by programming language | 13:58 |
| * dpm goes for lunch | 14:24 | |
| vish | do we have a page, which has: "why contributing to Ubuntu is awesome?" | 14:50 |
| popey | good question! | 14:51 |
| dholbach | if http://www.ubuntu.com/community isn't that page, it should be :) | 14:53 |
| vish | that page lists the ways to get involved, how to get involved but not *why* and how we save all the ponies :D | 14:57 |
| vish | basically there is this person who landed on -devel and -+1 and seemed like trying to get involved but asks "Do you get paid?" "if i join whats the point?" | 14:57 |
| vish | i told to look for Canonical jobs, but he is not interested in giving personal info to Canonical ;p | 15:00 |
| vish | hmm! there was this section in the team pages why each team is awesome, something c-johnston made people to fill in.. /me goes looking | 15:02 |
| jono | dpm, ready in a min or so? | 16:00 |
| Technoviking | dholbach: will do | 16:00 |
| dpm | jono, all set! | 16:01 |
| dholbach | thanks Technoviking - popey put it up on the pad | 16:02 |
| doctormo | pleia2, popey: Have either of you ever done nfs mounts for /home ? | 16:08 |
| doctormo | I can' seem to get user mapping to work, or at least I can't see it working. It's kind of hard to debug. | 16:10 |
| jussi | oh fun :( I got a bug in nspluginwrapper, then when I tried to report it, the bug reporter crashed. lol | 16:11 |
| popey | doctormo: i haven't myself, but the boxen I use (but dont admin) at $work have nfs mounted /home/$user | 16:16 |
| doctormo | popey: Ah, so you wouldn't know why I see numbers instead of usernames for owners of user home folders? | 16:17 |
| popey | i might | 16:17 |
| popey | username longer than 10 chars? | 16:17 |
| popey | or is it 8 | 16:17 |
| doctormo | popey: 'administrator' so yes | 16:22 |
| popey | i have seen that | 16:23 |
| dpm | jono, can't hear you anymore | 16:30 |
| doctormo | popey: Ah found the issue, both nfs-common configs need to be exactly the same. | 16:30 |

| jcastro | brilliant | 16:35 |

| jcastro | MeanEYE: were you the one taking over lernid? | 16:36 |
| dholbach | alright my friends | 16:41 |

| popey | nhandler: ping! | 18:12 |
| popey | could you please fix the EMEA membership board meeting entry on the fridge calendar? | 18:12 |
| popey | and the cc one | 18:12 |
| popey | they're both wrong by 1 hour | 18:12 |
| popey | EMEA says 8pm-9pm for me, but it's 9pm-10pm (20:00 UTC to 21:00 UTC) | 18:13 |
| popey | CC says 9pm-11pm for me but it's 10pm - 11pm (21:00 UTC to 22:00 UTC) | 18:13 |
| popey | or indeed anyone who can edit the fridge calendar? | 18:14 |
| akgraner | I can | 18:15 |
| popey | thank you! | 18:15 |
| akgraner | do you still need it taken care of | 18:15 |
| popey | yes | 18:15 |
| akgraner | on it | 18:15 |
| popey | or change owner to me and I'll fix them as I'm on both boards :) | 18:15 |
| akgraner | looking now :-) | 18:16 |
| akgraner | popey, should be fixed now... | 18:19 |
| popey | win | 18:19 |
| popey | thanks | 18:19 |
| akgraner | sorry about that..wonder how long it's been wrong...:-/ | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | popey: are you good to chair the CC meeting later? I will be around but work has me overwhelmed this week | 18:22 |
| popey | akgraner: a week. dst was last week | 18:23 |
| popey | pleia2: sure | 18:23 |
| pleia2 | cool | 18:23 |
| popey | pleia2: thanks for sorting out the RMB members! | 18:25 |
| pleia2 | popey: sure! we still have APAC outstanding, but one thing at a time :) | 18:25 |
| popey | heh, indeed | 18:25 |
| * popey pokes APAC with a stick | 18:25 | |
| Pendulum | popey: it might take a big stick. none of the board members showed up for their meeting this morning :-/ | 18:27 |
| popey | :( | 18:27 |
| Pendulum | yeah | 18:27 |
| Pendulum | there were 2 applicants going 'where are they?' :( | 18:27 |
| pleia2 | I think elky is usually the one rounding people up, and she's in the middle of a major move | 18:28 |
| Pendulum | yeah | 18:28 |
| Pendulum | I tried pinging the ones idling in -meeting, but no response. I pointed out to the 2 applicants that if they didn't want to wait they could also add their names to EMEA or Americas board meetings | 18:29 |
| pleia2 | thanks for that :) | 18:30 |
| pleia2 | Pendulum: oh! you're all officialized now: http://ubuntu-news.org/2011/04/05/new-emea-and-americas-membership-board-members/ | 18:30 |
| Pendulum | pleia2: I saw! Thank you! | 18:31 |
| Pendulum | pleia2: and no problem. I figured someone ought to direct them to other options since there wasn't even a board member around going 'sorry, we can't make quorum' | 18:33 |
| * pleia2 nods | 18:33 | |

| akgraner | anyone having issues with labels from the Unity Launcher not going away? | 20:12 |
| * mhall119 hasn't upgraded yet | 20:15 | |
| mhall119 | I think I remember having that on my netbook a couple times though | 20:16 |
| akgraner | I have this one label that won't go away and is showing up on every desktop and app...weird | 20:16 |
| mhall119 | pull the launcher back up and hover over the icon that made the label, maybe it'll remove the old one first | 20:16 |
| akgraner | and I don't even have the app open any more...:-/ | 20:16 |
| JanC | akgraner: I've seen that happen too, with some launchers | 20:20 |
| JanC | mhall119: doesn't work | 20:20 |
| JanC | I've seen is it happen twice, but not during the last 48h or so | 20:21 |
| JanC | which might be luck of course ;) | 20:21 |
| akgraner | JanC, interesting... mhall119 I even reopened the app and tried to hover over it...and I still have "Startup Disk Creator" Label there...I'm sure it will go away in time :-) | 20:25 |
| JanC | akgraner: it goes away when you restart unity/compiz (e.g. when you log out & back in, when you reboot, or, most likely here, when it crashes...) | 20:27 |
| akgraner | JanC, I'll restart in just a few then :-) thanks! | 20:35 |
| JanC | unity restarts automatically now and then here ;) | 20:35 |
| akgraner | DOH! that's not fun.. | 20:36 |
| JanC | but somehow I think that's not a feature to remove stuck launcher label :P | 20:36 |
| akgraner | reset Unity and dbus died in the middle of the reset - ended up restarting anyway...but now the label is gone... | 21:10 |
| jcastro | akgraner: oh crap | 21:25 |
| jcastro | openweek | 21:25 |
| jcastro | wanna chat about it tomorrow? | 21:25 |
| czajkowski | I feel honoured jeff spaleta left a comment on my blog | 21:55 |
| czajkowski | hmm | 21:55 |
| pleia2 | popey: I'm on my lunch break now, unfortunately I can only stay for a half hour (my schedule is usually more flexible but this week is brutal) | 22:01 |
| popey | no pleia2 :D | 22:01 |
| popey | czajkowski: you mean jono? | 22:01 |

| JFo | popey, :-P | 22:04 |
| paultag | czajkowski: popey: I'm so about to be bummed if head_victim is passed up this round | 22:05 |
| paultag | I got out of bed to cheer :) | 22:05 |
| popey | he added himself in the last few minutes | 22:05 |
| popey | we tell people not to add themselves during the meeting | 22:05 |
| Pendulum | he was there before the meeting when I looked | 22:05 |
| Pendulum | (he's another person who was there for A/O when they didn't show this morning) | 22:06 |
| popey | i meant the last few mins before the meeting :) | 22:06 |
| head_victim | popey: yeah sorry wasn't sure I was able to make it in time, I was scheduled for oceania last night but didn't happen. I understand if it's bumped though | 22:06 |
| Pendulum | fair enough :) | 22:06 |
| popey | lets see what the others say | 22:06 |
| * paultag hugs popey | 22:06 | |
| pleia2 | I turn into a pumpkin in 24 minutes, so it would be nice if we could start the CC meeting soon :) | 22:06 |
| JFo | pics or it didn't happen pleia2 :-P | 22:07 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 22:07 |
| JFo | :-D | 22:07 |
| popey | heh | 22:08 |
| paultag | popey: thanks popey, owe you a beer :) | 22:10 |
| JFo | naughty APAC board | 22:11 |
| Pendulum | paultag: how're you? | 22:11 |
| paultag | Pendulum: well, thanks! How are you? | 22:11 |
| Pendulum | it rained today which is exciting because it wasn't snow! | 22:11 |
| paultag | Pendulum: right! | 22:11 |
| paultag | same here, it was pretty cool | 22:12 |
| paultag | I've not seen rain in a few months | 22:12 |
| Pendulum | and we have a mailbox up after almost 3 months without! (drunk driver + snowstorm = no mailbox) | 22:12 |
| czajkowski | thats 2 people that turned up this evening due to lack of A/O board | 22:13 |
| JFo | yup | 22:13 |
| * JFo is shamed on their behalf | 22:13 | |
| czajkowski | it's really not fair :( | 22:14 |
| Pendulum | JFo: I already did that this morning when I apologized to them for A/O not showing up and suggested they add themselves to other meetings unless they wanted to wait until next month | 22:14 |
| JFo | yeah, still sucks that no one at all from the board showed up | 22:14 |
| JFo | hmmmm | 22:14 |
| JFo | actually I am reminded that today is QingMing Festival | 22:15 |
| JFo | wonder if that had anything to do with some of it | 22:15 |
| JFo | but that would be Taiwan only | 22:15 |
| Pendulum | well the person who is generally the best about rounding people up is in Australia, but she's currently in the middle of a big move so I suspect that's where part of it was | 22:15 |
| JFo | congrats head_victim | 22:16 |
| JFo | :-) | 22:16 |
| Pendulum | but it really shouldn't be one person having to remind the others | 22:16 |
| JFo | right | 22:16 |
| head_victim | Thanks everyone | 22:16 |
| paultag | way to go head_victim :) | 22:16 |
| JFo | well, maybe this will be the catalyst for them to pay closer attention :) | 22:16 |
| head_victim | Pendulum: yeah she's usually the only regular to turn up | 22:16 |
| Pendulum | JFo: it's not the first time :-/ | 22:16 |
| JFo | that is just sad | 22:17 |
| Pendulum | yeah :( | 22:17 |
| czajkowski | every single month! :s | 22:18 |
| head_victim | I feel bad becasue then everyone has a go at them even though they were the only one turning up regularly | 22:18 |
| Pendulum | paultag: are we rooting for the same team tonight? | 22:33 |
| paultag | Pendulum: totally!!!!!! Go sox!! | 22:33 |
| Pendulum | :D | 22:34 |
| paultag | Pendulum: I'm going to the game tom. afternoon | 22:34 |
| Pendulum | paultag: you told me. I am jealous. | 22:34 |
| paultag | Pendulum: I'm going decked out with all my sox gear | 22:34 |
| Pendulum | :D | 22:34 |
| paultag | I'm so stoked :) | 22:34 |
| Pendulum | yeah, I never got the guts to do that when I was in NYC | 22:34 |
| Pendulum | mostly because I didn't want to get jumped | 22:34 |
| paultag | aye! | 22:34 |
| paultag | just like yankees fans in Boston, god save their souls | 22:35 |
| Pendulum | I've heard fewer truly horrible stories in Boston than I have in NYC | 22:35 |
| paultag | truth | 22:35 |
| Pendulum | or the poor Giants fan in LA | 22:35 |
| paultag | hahaha | 22:37 |
| paultag | popey: the lintco code has a lot of undocumented code for working with launchpad bugs -- it'd be pretty simple to fork lintco into something that will let a person file their bug all by themselves | 22:39 |
| Pendulum | paultag: did you not hear about that? the poor guy is possibly still fighting for his life in the hospital | 22:39 |
| paultag | for EMEA, that is | 22:39 |
| paultag | Pendulum: no! What? | 22:39 |
| Pendulum | paultag: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2011/04/giants-fan-beaten-dodger-stadium-reward.html | 22:40 |
| Pendulum | (that's just the most recent news, it happened several days ago) | 22:40 |
| paultag | Pendulum: oh shucks! That's not good at all, shoot! | 22:40 |
| Pendulum | yeah :( | 22:41 |
| paultag | there's like a 125,000 USD reward | 22:41 |
| paultag | wow | 22:41 |
| paultag | wait, more, 40 | 22:41 |
| Pendulum | yeah | 22:41 |
| Pendulum | $40k is still a lot | 22:42 |
| paultag | Pendulum: $140K | 22:42 |
| paultag | Oh wait, I keep reading it wrong | 22:42 |
| paultag | it's 100K flat | 22:42 |
| Pendulum | yeah | 22:42 |
| paultag | my brain is fried | 22:42 |
| * Pendulum hugs paultag | 22:42 | |
| paultag | aww, thanks Pendulum | 22:43 |
| * paultag hugs Pendulum | 22:43 | |
| paultag | BRB, shower and a bit of dinner. Love ya'll muchly. | 22:45 |
