[04:00] <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
[04:47] <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 :)
[06:07]  * nlsthzn waves
[07:07] <MooDoo> hi all
[07:08]  * nlsthzn waves
[08:45] <NRWlion> hi there!
[08:48] <NRWlion> pleia2: ping (if you have time ;) )
[09:21] <MooDoo> NRWlion, won't be till later, she should be asleep by now 2.21am where she is
[09:23] <NRWlion> MooDoo: thats why i wrote (if you have time ;) )
[09:23] <MooDoo> :D
[14:12] <nhandler> Thanks pleia2
[14:28] <nhandler> pleia2: Email sent. Editors CCed
[16:13] <NRWlion> hi
[16:30] <pleia2> nhandler: thanks :)
[16:30] <NRWlion> hey lyz
[16:30] <nhandler> pleia2: np
[16:32] <pleia2> morning
[16:40] <NRWlion> pleia2: if you need help shifting content from google docs to forums or wiki lemme know. i will be available all weekend
[16:42] <nhandler> NRWlion: FYI, the forum post is generated via a script from the wiki markup
[16:43] <NRWlion> thx for the info :D
[16:44] <nhandler> pleia2: What days do you have planet links pulled for? I'll pull a few
[16:46] <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
[16:50] <nhandler> pleia2: Is it worth including 'Launchpad News: ' at the beginning of the LP news articles? It has its own section
[16:53] <pleia2> nope
[16:53] <pleia2> was just reflex probably :)
[17:02] <nhandler> pleia2: Removed. We should also be current with planet posts
[17:03] <pleia2> \o/
[18:30] <NRWlion> hey
[20:18] <pleia2> adding 10.04 release thingy to ubuntu-news and the americas board thing
[20:22] <holstein> pleia2: i was going to go looking for that... thanks
[22:46] <pleia2> welcome DraZoro :) added you to the list
[22:51] <DraZoro> Thanks pleia2 ....That was fast lightning speed.
[22:52] <pleia2> I try :)
[22:53] <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 :)
[22:54] <DraZoro> I will be more than happy. Recall I have zero experience
[22:54] <DraZoro> But will learn all that is required
[22:55] <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 :)
[22:56] <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
[22:57]  * pleia2 won't be around this weekend though
[22:58] <DraZoro> I will shout when I need help to any one available
[23:00]  * DraZoro is exploring http://ubuntu-news.org/ to have an idea 
[23:01] <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
[23:02] <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?
[23:03] <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 :(
[23:05] <DraZoro> Is the timezone going to give any issues ?
[23:06] <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
[23:07] <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
[23:08] <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
[23:09] <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
[23:12] <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)
