| pleia2 | putting together the "other stuff" in the newsletter now, hopefully my blog post will lure in some more summary-writing volunteers | 03:59 |
|---|---|---|
| zkriesse_ | pleia2: need more writers eh? | 04:01 |
| pleia2 | zkriesse_: yeah, need people to write article summaries on https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en&pli=1 | 04:02 |
| pleia2 | a bunch are done, just need a few more | 04:02 |
| holstein | i should have some time in the AM | 04:03 |
| pleia2 | thanks holstein :) | 04:03 |
| holstein | but, i dont want to be the only one writing them | 04:03 |
| * pleia2 nods | 04:03 | |
| pleia2 | I'll work on some after I finish populating the other stuff | 04:03 |
| holstein | ill try and recruit as well :) | 04:03 |
| holstein | folks can do it that are *not* on the irc | 04:04 |
| holstein | its just a bit challenging to know when they are working on them | 04:04 |
| holstein | when i was grabbing articles, i just went ahead and summarized them as i went | 04:04 |
| holstein | that would be ideal | 04:05 |
| holstein | assuming its not just you grabbing a bunch at once | 04:05 |
| pleia2 | when I'm grabbing links I'm just doing my regular rss reading, stopping to do summaries wouldn't work for me | 04:05 |
| holstein | yeah.. not ideal | 04:06 |
| holstein | we'll get some more help | 04:06 |
| pleia2 | oh nice, you can actually log into the wiki in a timely manner these days | 04:08 |
| * pleia2 hadn't logged in on this computer since before the upgrade | 04:08 | |
| holstein | thats great | 04:08 |
| holstein | its usually slooooow | 04:09 |
| pleia2 | nhandler: do you remember where you got "unconfirmed" bugs number? it's way higher when you pulled it than in any other issues lately | 04:24 |
| pleia2 | I think the rest of us had just been using "new" for that | 04:25 |
| pleia2 | ok, I wrote some summaries and moved several sections over to the wiki | 04:54 |
| pleia2 | and now everything with completed summaries is moved over, just need 8 or so more summaries | 05:08 |
| NRWlion | hi there | 07:40 |
| === Mootbot-UK_ is now known as Mootbot-UK | ||
| alourie | hello | 10:05 |
| alourie | where is the place for volunteers gathering? :-) .... | 10:06 |
| MooDoo | alourie, volunteering for what? ubuntu news? | 10:07 |
| alourie | MooDoo: yes... pleia2 is the address I believe :-) | 10:22 |
| MooDoo | alourie, yeah just ping her and she'll get back to you, it's 3:25 am where she is right now :) | 10:23 |
| alourie | right | 10:24 |
| alourie | pleia2: ping ^^ | 10:25 |
| MooDoo | just a case of leaving yourself in the channel i guess unless anyone else can help, i'm sure if they are reading this they will speak up :) | 10:25 |
| NRWlion | hey alourie | 10:36 |
| alourie | NRWlion: hi | 10:40 |
| alourie | MooDoo: that's OK, I'm leaving it on | 10:40 |
| alourie | and I know that there are a lot of knowledgeable people around here... | 10:43 |
| MooDoo | :) | 10:44 |
| alourie | I'm expecting this to be resolved quite fast :-) | 10:44 |
| * NRWlion reports for service | 10:44 | |
| MooDoo | alourie, i just said that in case there was anyone else around that could give you advice as pleia2 is assleep :) | 10:44 |
| NRWlion | alourie: how are we able to help out? | 10:45 |
| alourie | NRWlion: excellent :-) | 10:46 |
| alourie | NRWlion: she sent a callout for help | 10:46 |
| alourie | regarding links summaries | 10:46 |
| NRWlion | alourie: indeed we could use help | 10:46 |
| alourie | so I think I can do that (as I did it for awhile, circa half a year ago, just before we stopped_ | 10:46 |
| alourie | ) | 10:46 |
| NRWlion | alourie: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/EditingPolicies/SuggestedHowToEdit << have a read here | 10:47 |
| NRWlion | this is our checklist for each issue | 10:48 |
| NRWlion | :D | 10:48 |
| alourie | NRWlion: oh, it's ordered now :-), I've read it when it was much messier | 10:48 |
| alourie | it's nicer this way, really | 10:49 |
| NRWlion | alourie ok any other question? | 10:49 |
| NRWlion | pleia is doing an awesome job | 10:50 |
| NRWlion | :D | 10:50 |
| alourie | indeed | 10:50 |
| alourie | NRWlion: well, she wanted volunteers for the "In The Press" summaries, I guess | 10:51 |
| alourie | so I'd like to get back to doing that | 10:53 |
| alourie | so, do I need to work this out with Liz? | 10:53 |
| alourie | pleia2 I mean | 10:53 |
| * NRWlion knows who Liz is ;) | 10:55 | |
| * alourie is just not sure he can call her Liz :-) | 10:55 | |
| MooDoo | call her what you like she's not here to defend herself....*EVIL CACKLE* [yeah i know her] :) | 10:56 |
| alourie | excellent | 10:56 |
| alourie | so I'll wait for her then | 11:00 |

| NRWlion | hi cheri | 12:39 |
| nhandler | pleia2: Yeah, I thought it was a bit strange. I think the comment for that section said to use the number of 'new' bugs | 15:11 |
| pleia2 | yeah, new is what should be used, and that's been hovering around 49k | 16:01 |
| nhandler | pleia2: Ah, I see what happened. I was logged in to launchpad at the time, and I can see more bugs. If I'm not logged in, I get a number similar to what we have had in the past | 16:11 |
| * nhandler goes to update the non summary sections | 16:11 | |
| nhandler | Or did you do them already? | 16:12 |
| pleia2 | yeah, I did them | 16:12 |
| * nhandler hugs pleia2 | 16:13 | |
| pleia2 | ok, for new bugs we can just do "since last issue" | 16:13 |
| nhandler | That works. | 16:13 |
| pleia2 | 4 people emailed to help \o/ | 16:45 |
| pleia2 | still need those 8 summaries on https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en&pli=1 | 16:45 |
| pleia2 | ok, once we get the rest of these summaries we will have it in an editable state, should be good to release this evening | 16:53 |
| * pleia2 > work | 16:54 | |
| pleia2 | akgraner got us the link for what sites we should browse for news :) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/LinkSuggestions | 17:17 |
| pleia2 | added to HowToEdit document | 17:19 |
| pleia2 | I'll review the suggested new template this week and see about transitioning to it (I'm manually doing some edits to the current template, which feels silly | 17:21 |
| holstein | pleia2: well... i cant say its done, but i can say im done ;) | 17:28 |
| holstein | bbl... | 17:28 |
| pleia2 | thanks holstein! | 17:28 |
| pleia2 | oops, forgot to add dev team meetings | 17:59 |
| pleia2 | ok, we're ready for editors! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue223 | 18:07 |
| pleia2 | our credits are looking sparse, was there anyone else last week helping out? | 18:08 |
| pleia2 | alourie: if you're looking for something to help with, review is a nice place to start :) make sure all links work, check grammar and foramtting | 18:08 |
| * pleia2 work & | 18:09 | |
| pleia2 | hey Gareth! | 18:18 |
| Gareth | pleia2: howdy :) | 18:18 |
| pleia2 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue223 is what we're reviewing :) | 18:18 |
| * Gareth looks | 18:18 | |
| Gareth | In the "Get ready for Ubuntu Developer Week" section, "sometimes of presentations" doesnt sound right to me. Seems like it should be "sometimes as presentations" | 18:21 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 18:23 |
| Gareth | pleia2: went through the rest, couldn't find any issues. Looks good. | 18:27 |
| pleia2 | thanks :) | 18:28 |
| Gareth | np | 18:28 |
| pleia2 | anyone else available to proof? we also need to do the quick, tedious work of confirming that all the links work | 20:36 |
