[03:59] <pleia2> putting together the "other stuff" in the newsletter now, hopefully my blog post will lure in some more summary-writing volunteers
[04:01] <zkriesse_> pleia2: need more writers eh?
[04:02] <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
[04:03] <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 :)
[04:04] <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
[04:05] <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
[04:06] <holstein> yeah.. not ideal
[04:06] <holstein> we'll get some more help
[04:08] <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
[04:09] <holstein> its usually slooooow
[04:24] <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
[04:25] <pleia2> I think the rest of us had just been using "new" for that
[04:54] <pleia2> ok, I wrote some summaries and moved several sections over to the wiki
[05:08] <pleia2> and now everything with completed summaries is moved over, just need 8 or so more summaries
[07:40] <NRWlion> hi there

[10:05] <alourie> hello

[10:07] <MooDoo> alourie, volunteering for what? ubuntu news?
[10:22] <alourie> MooDoo: yes... pleia2 is the address I believe :-)
[10:23] <MooDoo> alourie, yeah just ping her and she'll get back to you, it's 3:25 am where she is right now :)
[10:24] <alourie> right
[10:25] <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 :)
[10:36] <NRWlion> hey alourie
[10:40] <alourie> NRWlion: hi
[10:40] <alourie> MooDoo: that's OK, I'm leaving it on
[10:43] <alourie> and I know that there are a lot of knowledgeable people around here...
[10:44] <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 :)
[10:45] <NRWlion> alourie: how are we able to help out?
[10:46] <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> )
[10:47] <NRWlion> alourie: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/EditingPolicies/SuggestedHowToEdit << have a read here
[10:48] <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
[10:49] <alourie> it's nicer this way, really
[10:49] <NRWlion> alourie ok any other question?
[10:50] <NRWlion> pleia is doing an awesome job
[10:50] <NRWlion> :D
[10:50] <alourie> indeed
[10:51] <alourie> NRWlion: well, she wanted volunteers for the "In The Press" summaries, I guess
[10:53] <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
[10:55]  * NRWlion knows who Liz is ;)
[10:55]  * alourie is just not sure he can call her Liz :-)
[10:56] <MooDoo> call her what you like she's not here to defend herself....*EVIL CACKLE* [yeah i know her] :)
[10:56] <alourie> excellent
[11:00] <alourie> so I'll wait for her then

[12:39] <NRWlion> hi cheri
[15:11] <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
[16:01] <pleia2> yeah, new is what should be used, and that's been hovering around 49k
[16:11] <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
[16:12] <nhandler> Or did you do them already?
[16:12] <pleia2> yeah, I did them
[16:13]  * nhandler hugs pleia2 
[16:13] <pleia2> ok, for new bugs we can just do "since last issue"
[16:13] <nhandler> That works.
[16:45] <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
[16:53] <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
[16:54]  * pleia2 > work
[17:17] <pleia2> akgraner got us the link for what sites we should browse for news :) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/LinkSuggestions
[17:19] <pleia2> added to HowToEdit document
[17:21] <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
[17:28] <holstein> pleia2: well... i cant say its done, but i can say im done ;)
[17:28] <holstein> bbl...
[17:28] <pleia2> thanks holstein!
[17:59] <pleia2> oops, forgot to add dev team meetings
[18:07] <pleia2> ok, we're ready for editors! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue223
[18:08] <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
[18:09]  * pleia2 work &
[18:18] <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
[18:21] <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"
[18:23] <pleia2> yeah
[18:27] <Gareth> pleia2: went through the rest, couldn't find any issues.  Looks good.
[18:28] <pleia2> thanks :)
[18:28] <Gareth> np
[20:36] <pleia2> anyone else available to proof? we also need to do the quick, tedious work of confirming that all the links work
