=== AlanBell changed the topic of #ubuntu-women-project to: This Channel is LOGGED | http://ubuntu-women.org | support (mostly) at #ubuntu | channel guidelines: http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/IrcGuidelines | Next Meeting: 11 August 2011 @ 20:00 UTC [17:35] thanks AlanBell [20:53] so on our blueprint I volunteered to contact jono and get the condorcet poll set up and otherwise run the leadership election [20:53] but since I'm a candidate this is probably not a good idea [20:53] where's the list of nominees? i'll email him [20:53] can we get someone else to volunteer for this? [20:54] maco: http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/LeadershipElectionProcess/2011 [20:54] what we need is the list from ~ubuntu-women in launchpad [20:54] and no, nigel, i'm not applying for yet another board [20:54] oh [20:54] [lyz] Contact Jono in July when ready for election to handle condorcet voting: TODO [20:54] ^^ my action item from UDS [20:57] so do i just give him the list of all the names? [20:57] im a little confused [20:57] i cant see everyone's email addresses... [20:57] to do condorcet voting we need a list of all email addresses from LP to add them to the poll, only canonical folks have been successful in getting such lists from launchpad [20:57] so jono said he'd help us out when election time came [20:58] ah ok [20:58] either by setting up the poll or getting us a list of public addresses and contacting the rest to see if they want to participate [20:58] us mere mortals can only email a handful of people per day via launchpad, so last time akgraner spent something like a week hitting her quota for contact every day to reach everyone [20:58] so i just tell him "hey get hte names from the thing and make a poll with these candidates"? [20:59] s/names/email addresses [20:59] doh [20:59] erm yes [20:59] ik [20:59] ok [21:00] the election isn't until August 9th, but we need the list now because we require the list from 30 days prior to the election [21:00] so don't make the poll until then, just get the list :) [21:00] oh i see [21:00] dan [21:00] *dang [21:02] * maco sending correction email [21:02] sorry :) [21:02] doned === rww is now known as tardis [21:39] * MarkDude wanted to see if anyone will be attending OSCON and can help with table? === tardis is now known as rww [21:52] ÆV/24 [21:52] wonder how I typed that [21:53] altgr+shift+z [21:53] at least thats how i get Æ [21:54] that does < for me [21:54] it does Z for me. yay Windows! [21:54] GB keyboards are weird. you need 3 keys to get < ??? [21:54] how do brits EVER do html?! [21:55] maco: umm, no you don't [21:55] or math? [21:55] no, I have <> on keycaps [21:55] oh, just have two ways to get to them? [21:55] so it seems [21:55] interesting [21:55] maco: you mean you don't want to be on every board Ubuntu has all at once? [21:56] http://www.twam.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/us_international.png this is the layout i use [21:56] Pendulum: oh yeah just want to spend all my time on dmb, rmb, uw, and cc meetings uh huh... i'm not lyz ;) [21:57] oh wait forgot tb [21:57] :) [21:57] then thatd be all the boards i can remember [22:00] maco: you forgot loco council [22:00] hm if ones with council in the name count then there's also kubuntu-council [22:00] and i think edubuntu has a council too [22:01] http://people.ubuntu.com/~alanbell/Screenshot-Keyboard%20Layout%20%22United%20Kingdom%22.png [22:01] Æ altgr+shift+a [22:03] WOAH [22:03] you have a key between Z and shift! [22:03] weeeeeeeird [22:04] you don't O.o [22:04] nope [22:04] pipe is where your return key gets too-tall ;) [22:05] what is that character when you shift-backtick? [22:05] ¬ [22:05] what's it for? [22:06] and does this mean i have to stop explaining backtick as "un-shift tilde"? [22:06] no idea, I have a vauge recollection that it is a mathematical symbol for logical not, or perhaps something from set theory [22:06] oooh yeah...that's common enough to warrant *not* being third-level? [22:07] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negation [22:07] woah [22:08] I was right first time :) [22:08] are the third levels on v/b left and right double quotes? [22:08] instead of just having straight quotes? [22:08] “” [22:08] yes, never knew they were there [22:09] oh how odd [22:09] they put Þ on P [22:09] straight quotes are on shift 2, where they belong [22:09] i know it looks like it, but i think ours makes more sense semantically, since it's thorn...it's for a th sound...it goes with T [22:10] i am now sad that wynn is not on keyboards though [22:10] i re-learned about wynn when i showed Pendulum my 11th century calligraphy of the Lords Prayer === issyl0_ is now known as Guest68804 [22:11] at first i wondered why i put thorn into the text when writing it since the things i see online use a w, then i realised no, thats not a thorn, the strokes are different, and i looked up the anglo saxon alphabet, and sure enough, w used to be written as Ƿ [22:11] you have Á as a single chord which is nice, I have to press altgr+; then A [22:12] it does need an interrobang key [22:12] anyhow, late here, night maco and all o/ [22:12] bye
