nhandler | Wasn't there something I was going to bug the Canonical Sysadmins about? Probably fridge related. I'll look back through my logs in the am | 04:00 |
---|---|---|
pleia2 | 20:38 * nhandler notes that we should probably setup fridge.ubuntu.com so it doesn't simply redirect to ubuntu-news.org | 04:47 |
pleia2 | ^^ that :) | 04:47 |

NRWlion | hey lyz | 16:30 |
nhandler | pleia2: np | 16:30 |
pleia2 | morning | 16:32 |
NRWlion | pleia2: if you need help shifting content from google docs to forums or wiki lemme know. i will be available all weekend | 16:40 |
nhandler | NRWlion: FYI, the forum post is generated via a script from the wiki markup | 16:42 |
NRWlion | thx for the info :D | 16:43 |
nhandler | pleia2: What days do you have planet links pulled for? I'll pull a few | 16:44 |
pleia2 | nhandler: through yesterdayish | 16:46 |
pleia2 | not all of the news stuff is good (I think one or two are how-tos, which I'm kinda meh on), so just remove stuff that doesn't look good | 16:46 |
nhandler | pleia2: Is it worth including 'Launchpad News: ' at the beginning of the LP news articles? It has its own section | 16:50 |
pleia2 | nope | 16:53 |
pleia2 | was just reflex probably :) | 16:53 |
nhandler | pleia2: Removed. We should also be current with planet posts | 17:02 |
pleia2 | \o/ | 17:03 |
NRWlion | hey | 18:30 |

pleia2 | welcome DraZoro :) added you to the list | 22:46 |
DraZoro | Thanks pleia2 ....That was fast lightning speed. | 22:51 |
pleia2 | I try :) | 22:52 |
DraZoro | It is amazing indeed just a little nervous. I have been behind the desk just reading new letter on UBT ...First time I took a step. | 22:53 |
DraZoro | I mean news :) | 22:53 |
pleia2 | well, we need more summary writers so we're very happy to have you :) | 22:53 |
DraZoro | I will be more than happy. Recall I have zero experience | 22:54 |
DraZoro | But will learn all that is required | 22:54 |
pleia2 | don't worry, a lot of people start here with helping out, and there are a few revisions of editing that happen before publication so even awful summaries written by me tend to get cleaned up :) | 22:55 |
DraZoro | I feel a lot better now thanks. | 22:56 |
pleia2 | so we collect links throughout the week, saturday is usually when we send out the email and ask in here for people to start writing summaries | 22:56 |
* pleia2 won't be around this weekend though | 22:57 | |
DraZoro | I will shout when I need help to any one available | 22:58 |
* DraZoro is exploring http://ubuntu-news.org/ to have an idea | 23:00 | |
pleia2 | so just to have a basic idea, we have two projects we work on | 23:01 |
nhandler | pleia2: I'll be around if necessary (and am able to publish and/or teach a new publisher) | 23:01 |
pleia2 | ubuntu-news.org is news taken from official sources, usually written by developers or other officials within the project, we publish new articles there as they are announced just copying the content | 23:01 |
DraZoro | Ok | 23:02 |
pleia2 | and then every week (or at least, we try every week) to release the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter, which is wht we need summary writers for :) | 23:02 |
nhandler | pleia2: Do you have any idea what the other WP instance on fridge.ubuntu.com is? Was that from an incomplete transition? | 23:02 |
DraZoro | A lot of work takes place I am glad we have people like you and nhandler and the rest of the team to assist . | 23:03 |
pleia2 | nhandler: not a clue :( | 23:03 |
DraZoro | Is the timezone going to give any issues ? | 23:05 |
pleia2 | DraZoro: nope, it usually takes a couple days to get summaries so there is usually at least a 24 hour window where people can contribute | 23:06 |
DraZoro | pleia2: Thanks | 23:06 |
DraZoro | I am about to go to bed it is 01:05 this side in South Africa and very cold ....freezing | 23:07 |
DraZoro | Thanks a lot guys | 23:07 |
pleia2 | sure thing, have a good night | 23:07 |
DraZoro | Will do | 23:07 |
nhandler | pleia2: It sounds like we will need to reconfigure all of the fridge preferences/plugins, but we should be able to get this done relatively seamlessly | 23:08 |
pleia2 | nhandler: my flight is in 14 hours and I'm pretty much unavailable until monday, but feel free to move forward if you can see how and find the time | 23:09 |
nhandler | pleia2: Alright. Time will be the hardest part, but it is looking like it will be pretty straight-forward (as long as Dave continues to be this awesome and responsive) | 23:12 |
