Pendulum | nlsthzn: can you please not use the word 'retarded' it's offensive | 00:08 |
---|---|---|
Pendulum | pleia2: give me a sec to grab a snack and i'll do some | 00:08 |
pleia2 | woohoo, thanks | 00:08 |
pleia2 | https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en&pli=1 | 00:08 |
pleia2 | in case you don't have it handy :) | 00:08 |
Pendulum | yeah, just found it in logs :) | 00:10 |
nlsthzn | Pendulum: sorry about that (took me a few minutes to actually find what you where reffering too)... wasn't meant to be offensive... | 00:10 |
Pendulum | nlsthzn: np. just wanted to mention it | 00:11 |
Pendulum | is anyone working on the Launchpad news summaries? | 00:12 |
nlsthzn | Pendulum: Not me... I did a few news articles but it is 4 am here and my mind has shut down... | 00:13 |
Pendulum | okay, i'll do them then :) | 00:14 |
Pendulum | pleia2: one of the posts in Launchpad News is out of date now (was looking for people to do testing last week), can I drop it? | 00:20 |
pleia2 | yeah, go for it | 00:20 |
Pendulum | launchpad news summaries are done | 00:34 |
* nlsthzn sees that Pendulum is fast at this... | 00:39 | |
Pendulum | nlsthzn: I used to do a lot of them | 00:47 |
nlsthzn | Well... I am sure I will be able to chip in a few every week-end to lighten the load... | 00:47 |
nlsthzn | cheers all... time to call it a day and head home... | 02:17 |
pleia2 | sweet, looks like we only need summaries for planet and blogosphere sections | 03:39 |
philipballew | any help still needed on the summaries. I can type many more tonight if needed | 04:28 |
pleia2 | philipballew: yep, The Planet and In the Blogosphere still need summaries | 04:32 |
philipballew | alright, I'll see if i can so at least either the planet or the blog tonight | 04:33 |
philipballew | if not ill do more tomorrow as well. they all need to be done by Sunday evening correct? | 04:35 |
pleia2 | sunday morning | 04:35 |
pleia2 | after that we need to add them to the wiki, get proof readers, and release by monday morning | 04:36 |
pleia2 | (or monday evening, probably monday evening with my schedule) | 04:36 |
philipballew | haha. ill see what i can do. is it just me and you now? | 04:44 |
pleia2 | hopefully some other people who aren't on IRC are pitching in too | 04:45 |
philipballew | hopefully. | 04:45 |
philipballew | but if not oh well | 04:45 |
philipballew | do you read the article before you type the summery? | 04:46 |
pleia2 | how else could you write a summary? :) | 04:47 |
pleia2 | so yes, I read through the full article and then write the summary | 04:48 |
philipballew | it is true. just making sure you didn't have some secret. i can usually make a brief outline in my head and then condense it | 04:50 |
pleia2 | it's been suggested that to save time we just take the first paragraph, but in this world of blogs it doesn't work like it might have once with newspaper articles | 04:50 |
philipballew | true, there is no thesis statement in these articles | 04:52 |
philipballew | any info on this? https://sergioandresmeneses.wordpress.com/2011/07/12/ubuntu-colombia-en-la-campusparty-2011/ | 04:59 |

alourie | philipballew: there are already one-liners in the doc. Should I ignore them? | 06:00 |

nlsthzn | :p | 18:23 |
nlsthzn | Whats up with the issue number? | 18:24 |

nlsthzn | What is the best way to point out an issue... should I just mention it here? | 18:26 |
pleia2 | yeah | 18:27 |
nlsthzn | The Planet - First link...Elizabeth talks about some of the work that goes into publishing the Ubuntu Weekly News (hey, that's us!) each week and does a call for volunteers who can help writing article summaries for links collected throughout the week. | 18:27 |
nlsthzn | *should be ...write article... | 18:27 |
nlsthzn | *write articles | 18:27 |
nlsthzn | *write article | 18:27 |
nlsthzn | doh | 18:27 |
pleia2 | :) | 18:27 |
pleia2 | yeah | 18:27 |
nlsthzn | oh another thing I notice... In the Press... I put all my summaries below the links... while it seems standard to have the summary above the link | 18:29 |
pleia2 | oops | 18:29 |
pleia2 | I'll get that sorted too | 18:29 |
nlsthzn | Blog Sphere too | 18:29 |

nlsthzn | Well thanks to Linux, Canonical, and the Team here for a chance to help out... | 18:32 |
pleia2 | thanks nlsthzn | 18:34 |
nlsthzn | In the note: That’s why we are looking for you! Exactly! You readers can help us too. *I get the idea behind the "Exactly!" but it doesn't flow well and I suspect can be a bit confusing... | 19:48 |
NRWlion | hollas | 20:24 |
