[01:11] anyone need help with articles? [01:50] we need help collecting them :) [01:50] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/LinkSuggestions [01:50] if you go down to the "In the Press" section you'll see about a million links, look on those sites for ubuntu news [01:51] then put the links in https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en&pli=1 under the "In the Press" section [01:51] same for "In the blogosphere" [01:51] * pleia2 is doing The Planet [01:52] alright. ill try that tonight. if i am confisued ill ask again in the channel pleia2 [01:53] sounds good, I'll be around (had dinner plans, but they were canceled at last minute) [01:54] aww, i'm sorry pleia2 I know that can be sad [01:56] actually I'm a little relieved, I don't know the couple we're meeting (friends of MJ) and I'm always shy and awkward at such dinners ;) [01:56] * pleia2 enjoys evening at home [01:57] a friday night at home for you? you seem like the person out all night! haha I souppose they would not want someone who is shy at dinner. [01:58] but you seem outgoing in a lot of way pleia2 [01:59] I am ok when I'm the leader, but mostly I am quite shy [02:00] hum. we all have our places where we excell and dont in others. its what makes the world work [02:01] :) [03:51] gosh this list on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/LinkSuggestions is long [03:51] adding what I can to my rss reader, but it's a chore :) [04:55] ok, we could use more news and blogosphere stuff, but we have a pretty full issue so far https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en&pli=1 [05:05] * pleia2 heads out to dinner [06:00] morning from Central Euorpe [06:03] night from California! [06:04] i'd love to see california once but my budget is too low :( [06:09] id like to go to europe [06:11] well if u come u gotta visit "Phantasia Land Cologne" and "Moviepark Germany" [06:11] ;) [06:12] what are those? [06:14] philipballew: hang on changing clients [06:18] philipballew: The two names i gave you are fun and entertaimentparks in North-Rhine Westfalia (my Home State ;) ) [06:18] in Germany [06:21] oh nice. never been there [06:25] as i have never been over the big ocean ;) [07:05] I've only ever visited german airports [07:05] pleia2: you really stop by these to parks ;) [07:08] some day :) [07:17] hey pleia2 could you link me the google doc of the current issue of the newsletter?= [07:18] https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en&pli=1 [07:22] thx ... i have another one of my crazy ideas .... ;) [07:35] pleia2: do you have a gmail account? I'd like to have you a read on a google doc i just created (if you have time of course!==) [07:48] NRWlion: you can share with lyz@princessleia.com (it's a google account) [07:48] pleia2: copy ... sharing in 2 [07:49] ok u should have access now [07:50] thanks :) [07:51] cool, I might add a bit more text, thinking of sending this out with the next issue of Ubuntu Weekly News? [07:51] if it is usable pls feel free to do what ever you need [07:52] i might be able to provide these texts as "Editioral words" or what ever they are called ;) [07:54] pleia2: if you need those kinds of texts feel free to contact me ;) [07:54] cause this is what i am able to provide :D [08:00] thanks :) [08:01] ok, i am getting back to my work now [08:04] hi jono [17:11] pleia2, hey! so I found an interesting article. well to me... how do I determine where i put it or if it should go anywhere in google docs [17:11] philipballew: you can paste it here [17:12] we talk a lot in here as the weekend progresses [17:12] http://ubuntu.igameilive.com/2011/07/what-orange-is-ubuntu-orange.html [17:13] good one, but we already have the source article included (the canonical design post) [17:14] i see, that makes sense. do they have to be on the list of websites or am I allowed to go "into the wild and look"? [17:14] please go into the wild :) [17:14] I've done a basic browse through the massive list of sites (added a bunch to my RSS reader) [17:16] what level of computer knowledge ore we going after here? [17:17] hard to say, but as long as it's related to ubuntu, it's worth looking at here at least [17:17] so we don't want the latest kernel news (too generic linux), but "oneiric is shipping with $version kernel" is good [17:18] makes sence. ill paste them here in a bit when i get 5 or 6 [17:19] i assume uds sponsorships is already been mentioned. [17:19] yep [17:20] the google doc has everything we're planning to include this week [17:20] * pleia2 shower [17:32] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otaSUoE7xKo [17:32] http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/15/eee-pc-1215p-12-incher-spotted-with-mammalian-ubuntu/ [17:32] http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Nuxeo-Releases-New-Open-iw-418323713.html?x=0&.v=1 [17:32] http://www.linuxfordevices.com/c/a/News/Asus-Eee-PC-1215P/ [17:33] http://arstechnica.com/web/news/2011/07/first-flash-11-beta-brings-64-bit-support-to-linux-finally.ars?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss [17:33] here is a few off the wall articles from the web [17:35] the Asus one is covered, adding Nuxeo and flash [17:36] thanks! [17:38] I think this means we're pretty good on articles [17:38] thanks philipballew :D [17:39] everyone: I sent the doc out to summary writers, so we're in summary writing mode now :) [18:18] pleia2: i'll try and get to a few this evening, but im going out of town tomorrow morning [18:18] *if* i have interwebs where im staying, i'll check in and do some work [18:18] otherwise, i'll have to miss this week :/ [18:20] holstein: ok, thanks for checking in, enjoy your time away :) [18:33] 4 articles summarized, will get to more after I run Saturday errands [18:33] * holstein high-fives philipballew :) [18:34] I need to figure out how to do the irc thing with the * sometime [18:34] haha [18:34] /me high-fices holstein [18:34] :) [18:34] fices! [18:34] typing fails me today :) [18:35] philipballew: you say "/me whatever" [18:36] do i actually say me or would i type philipballew [18:36] im a forms person mostly [18:36] * philipballew whatever [18:36] sweet! [18:36] yeah :) [18:43] heading out to meet up with some friends for lunch, bbl :) [21:25] Hey...quick question on the summary writing... how brief are you guys aiming for ... on the google doc, is "Run Ocelot, Run!" done for instance? [21:31] nlsthzn, i would do 2. 3 sentences max [21:31] i did the summery for run ocelot and its done [21:32] philipballew: OK cool... so it is really a quick condense look at the basic idea of the story... cool thanks... (Will see if I can chip in...) [21:32] basically. thats what i was told [21:33] nlsthzn: they get looked at a lot [21:33] if you get an idea, and its short, go for it [21:33] it can always be edited [21:33] i think the shorter and more conscise the better [21:34] ok, thanks :) [21:45] ... ok, this may sound retarded in this day and age but I have never used Google docs... ever... after making an edit... do I simply hit the save button? (man, do I feel stupid asking this...) [21:46] nlsthzn: no worries [21:46] it *should* auto-save [21:46] Indeed [21:46] i usually put my name in the article im working on [21:46] so no one else starts working on it too [21:46] sometimes it doesnt auto-save and you need to hit the button [21:47] the issue is, how to tell... [21:47] In the top right corner you should see a grayed-out rounded-down rectangle with "Saved" in it [21:47] yeah ^^ and its mostly functional [21:48] oh yes... I see it now :p thanks... it says saved... [21:49] I was expecting an autosave... it makes sense... but didn't want to bet on it and loose anything :) [22:09] morning america [22:09] its 3pm here [22:10] noon in Hawaii [22:10] :D just wanted to quote a famous film [22:13] what film [22:14] Invictious starring Matt Damon as rugby captain of south africa [22:15] Good morning Vietnam!!! [22:16] btw, never saw the movie but did watch the live events... why would morning america be a quote from Invictus? [22:17] never seen any of those movies. i must suck [22:17] nlsthzn: i just wanted to fool philipballew a bit [22:18] Ah... seems easy enough to do :D [22:18] ;) [22:20] btw philipballew you should try to get a dvd of "good morning vietnnam" its a MUST SEE in my opinion [22:20] i do live less then a mile from best buy NRWlion [22:21] philipballew: pardon me? [22:22] best buy, i live less then a mile from it. its a giant electronic box store [22:24] NRWlion, [22:27] philipballew: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mJoHqmtFcQ << take a look here ;) [22:28] this is what i call a movie [23:59] * pleia2 nudges people for more summaries
