cjohnstonI know its late... there is #ubuntu  - it isn't run by a loco team.. or a locale team per se... we have #ubuntu-us-fl for Florida chat.. Use a channel for support for a language.. and then a channel for the team00:17
cjohnstonjust like english00:17
paultagmhall119: I'll get beat up for our LoCos, no problem02:01
nhandlerAnyone need a Google+ invite?03:36
paultagall set here :)03:37
nhandlerpaultag: I know ;)03:37
paultagnhandler: ;)03:38
paultagnhandler: I'm trying to re-think a name, I'm still not sold :(03:40
paultagI want something snarky, but a subdued snarky that most people won't catch03:40
paultagpleia2: just because something's a standard does not mean it's going to be black-and-white, I'd be happy with a transition plan, and RE: URLs, I totally agree, and I've made that pretty clear in that last email :)04:24
paultagpleia2: I think that making the names standard is a good thing, and using the old branding until it comes time to re-do it would be OK, I think04:25
paultagI don't want to keep stomping on the ML, but I also don't want to be unclear :)04:26
pleia2paultag: if it's not black and white you don't actually solve the discoverability problem you're claming to solve04:34
paultagpleia2: doing a radical change like this is not something I'm willing to take a strict stance on.04:35
pleia2and we should NEVER change the URLs, my team went through a forced IRC channel name change and that was painful enough (and expensive in time and money, we needed to find every reference to #ubuntu-california and change, it and update all our color print resources - fortunately in that case forwards can be put in place, not so for launchpad)04:35
paultagpleia2: we should change the URL, but we need to work with Launchpad to set up some sort of redirect04:35
pleia2even with a redirect it looks crazy unprofessional for all our resources to be giving the wrong ling04:36
paultagpleia2: so that's more long-term04:36
pleia2link04:36
pleia2please don't do this to us04:36
paultagpleia2: so you update it going forward, if it's outdated it's outdated04:36
pleia2:(04:36
paultagpleia2: look, this was from the whole LC, I just signed it and kicked it out, I personally don't care that much04:36
pleia2you're the one talking to me personally, I was discussing it on the mailing list04:37
pleia2to everyone, not just you04:37
paultagpleia2: I know, but it looks like I'm killing the list posting to everyone04:37
paultagpleia2: I know, I know, I know04:37
paultagpleia2: this is totally not personal with me, I'm totally cool about this, we're just chatting04:37
pleia2this is the kind of thing that makes teams want to have nothing to do with the LC (this has been a very bad day for me)04:37
pleia2I support and defend the LC all the time, but even I am finding this a bit much04:38
paultagright, sure.04:39
pleia2if you want to fix discoverability on the loco directory, work on the loco directory - maybe have a specific "display name" there, or use a map like is being discussed on the list04:39
pleia2(and at UDS)04:39
pleia2as I said in my first mail, I just don't think this will help and it's painful for teams04:39
paultagpleia2: would you mind putting that up as a suggestion? I don't think that has been brought up yet.04:40
pleia2display name in LD?04:40
paultagpleia2: having the LD map it04:40
paultagpleia2: I don't care so long as everyone's happy04:40
pleia2AlanBell suggested it, I acked it (and Cheri703 talked about it at UDS)04:40
paultagthis is to keep the LD folks happy, but it seems to piss off the LoCos, and LoCo members really don't mind ripping into whoever's suggesting something04:41
paultagwhich kinda sucks tbh04:41
paultagbut it's fine, I don't do this to get pats on the back :)04:41
pleia2the LD folks are creating a service for the locos04:41
pleia2if the locos hate it, they won't use it04:41
paultagpleia2: I don't care either way, let's just get everyone on the same page04:41
paultagthis is why I wanted it an RFC not a new policy04:43
pleia2:)04:44
pleia2paultag: ur in my google+ friend circle <304:48
pleia2(I hate this thing already)04:48
paultagpleia2: yeah it's pretty hacked up, it's pretty hard to use04:48
paultaghopefully it'll change or morph into something less facebookey04:48
pleia2google wave 2011 edition?04:48
paultaghehehe04:48
AlanBellnhandler: I am kind of interested in a google+ invite06:48
pleia2multiple google accounts strike again, everyone is adding me as a friend on my unused @gmail.com account, argh :)06:50
nigelbheh06:51
nigelbpleia2: what's the right email to add you?06:51
* AlanBell hugs paultag for being the messenger in front of the firing squad06:51
AlanBellstill think it is a daft idea mind06:51
nigelbheh06:52
head_victimMaybe RE the ML conversation there just needs to be another box called "Loco Directory Display Name" or something that can be used to generate the list?06:52
AlanBellthere should not be a list06:53
AlanBellthe only people that care that a list exist or have consistency of the list as a problem are the loco council06:53
pleia2nigelb: lyz@princessleia.com is the one that has the invite, but I'm all kinds of confused now because my @gmail.com account apparently has google+ enabled too...06:54
pleia2google is hard :)06:54
nigelbheh06:55
nigelbpleia2: oh no.06:55
nigelbI'm going down that path too06:56
nigelbI have nigelbabu@gmail.com and nigel@nigelb.me06:56
nigelbbut I'm keeping my emails from my domain to professional stuff and gmail for open source06:56
AlanBellalanbelltolc@googlemail.com is my google account, but I don't use that address publicly for anything (stuff gets forwareded there from @ubuntu.com)06:56
* pleia2 applies hugs to paultag for the same reason as AlanBell did06:57
AlanBellhugs, whilst reloading06:57
vishnhandler: me me! (google+ invite..) :D08:04
nigelbvish: what's your gmail ID? :)08:07
vishnigelb: drvishnoo@08:08

PiciBut yes, there used to be a pie chart there.18:24
paultagI thought they were on the right sidebar or something18:24
