cprofittmhall119: ping01:01
cprofittcjohnston: ping01:02
mhall119cprofitt: pong01:53
cprofitthey mhall119, looking for some advice on how to get started with django and potentially work up to being able to help you guys01:54
mhall119cprofitt: awesome, loco-directory or summit?01:54
cprofittperhaps better to email you for the details...01:54
cprofitteither, both... just want to learn enough to help01:54
cprofittbeen a goal I have put off for several years01:54
mhall119cprofitt: cool, loco-directory is pretty easy to get setup nowadays01:54
mhall119cprofitt: just bzr branch lp:loco-directory01:55
mhall119the INSTALL file has instructions, you may need to apt-get install a few packages, but then it's just a couple make commands01:55
cprofittI know that stuff... but looking more what tools I should be using to just learn django01:55
cprofittI assume I need to build a 'test server'... and not sure if I should just use Idle or some other tool for the code stuff01:56
mhall119http://djangoproject.org has great documentation and a 4-part tutorial that'll give you a good idea of how Django's pieces all work together01:56
cprofittI am transitioning from .Net stuff and visual studio, but do not think I need an IDE.01:56
mhall119cprofitt: Django has a built-in server that's useful for development01:56
cprofittcool... do you use a virtualbox server?01:56
mhall119nope, I use Gedit, others use vim, emacs, whatever01:57
mhall119nope01:57
cprofittcool... I like SciTe01:57
cprofittfor a lot of stuff... but trying to learn vim01:57
mhall119the Makefile creates a python virtual environment that keeps the python dependencies for loco-directory out of your system packages01:57
mhall119once you get the code, run "sudo make depends" to isntall what few system packages it needs01:58
* cprofitt nods01:58
mhall119then "make init" to setup the local environemtn01:58
mhall119then "make run" to run the test server01:58
mhall119"make depends" is just: apt-get install python2.6 python2.6-dev python-virtualenv libjs-jquery libjs-jquery-ui iso-codes gettext01:59
cprofittk01:59
mhall119so, 3 commands to get setup01:59
mhall1194 if you count bzr branch01:59
mhall119 /join #ubuntu-website too, we'll help you there and you can join in the conversations02:00
cprofittI hope to get myself up to 'good enough' by UDS02:00
cprofittand then spend some time with you guys there02:01
mhall119we're going to have a summit hackathon next global jam, there will be remote participation02:01
mhall119http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-us-florida/1056/detail/02:01
cprofittcool.02:02
cprofittthanks for the tips02:08
mhall119no problem, we're happy whenever someone says they want to start helping02:11
cprofittI can't promise anything yet as I will be teaching myself django for the next month or so...02:15
cprofittbut I will try02:15
bkerensaHello :) Any Loco Team people around? I need some help02:50
cprofittwhat can I help with02:52
cprofittbkerensa: do you still need help?02:59
bkerensaYeah02:59
cprofittwhat with?03:00
bkerensacprofitt: So basically our old loco lead is deployed and has been and I took the role and I'm trying to get our loco organized and I need access to the Loco events so I can add events but have no idea how to do this since we did not have a launchpad until recently (oddly we have a forum, mailing list and irc channel) any direction would be helpful :)03:01
cprofittwhat is your loco?03:01
bkerensacprofitt: We even hosted the Ubuntu both at OSCON 03:01
bkerensaUbuntu Oregon (#ubuntu-us-or)03:01
cprofittdo you have a launchpad team or wiki page?03:02
bkerensaYeah03:03
cprofitthttps://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-oregon03:03
bkerensahttp://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOregon03:03
cprofittthat one....03:03
bkerensayeah thats our launchpad03:04
cprofittok03:04
bkerensaI just set it up two days ago even though we have been established awhile on all other levels03:04
cprofitthttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/OregonTeam03:04
cprofittthat looks to be your wiki03:04
cprofittis Paul the loco leader who is deployed?03:05
bkerensaYeah thats it... Sorry I'm a bit tired I have been at OSCON :P03:05
cprofittno problem03:05
bkerensaNope... Thomas Mashos03:05
cprofittok03:05
bkerensaHe is the deployed guy03:05
bkerensaand he handed it off to Mark Terranova who happened to move to California and due to the distance he couldnt be interim anymore so asked me to take over and we have been doing release parties and did OSCON... CLS and did stuff with Jono03:06
cprofittTerranova?03:06
bkerensaYep03:06
cprofittalright03:06
bkerensaYou know him?03:07
bkerensa:)03:07
cprofittYes03:07
bkerensafunny guy with his penguin suit03:07
cprofitthttps://launchpad.net/~locoteams03:08
cprofittgo to that page03:08
cprofittclick "Add one of my teams"03:08
bkerensaok :) I figured thats what I had to do but I thought we might have to be accepted first03:09
cprofittadd the Oregon team03:09
cprofittthen, yes, you will have to be approved03:09
cprofittthen I think your team will show up in loco.ubuntu.com03:10
bkerensaok03:10
bkerensacool03:10
cprofittin the interim -- though it should not be long03:10
bkerensaI did that... So I will just get our members to join our launchpad team now... Kinda odd nobody had done this in the past :P03:10
cprofittyou could add some events to your wiki page and announce them on the forums03:10
bkerensaYeah were doing that :)03:11
bkerensathanks for the help... Were you at OSCON?03:11
cprofittmake sure you change the wiki link on the launchpad page03:11
cprofittNo, I am in NY03:11
cprofitta little far for OSCON... though I would have loved to have attended03:11
bkerensaOne other thing how would I get mailinglist switched over to me?03:12
bkerensaoh yeah!03:12
cprofitt8the easiest way is to have the current admin give you the admin password03:13
cprofittbut if they have been deployed that is likely difficult03:13
cprofittin that case you may need to talk to one of the loco council and let them know what is happening03:13
cprofittit looks like Mark may have that password though03:14
cprofittin which case he should be able to help you out03:14
cprofittyeah -- Mark is listed as the owner of the list03:15
cprofitthe is still around I assume03:15
bkerensaOh yeah :) I will just give him a call in the next few days I imagine he is driving home to California right now :P 03:19
* cprofitt nods03:19
cprofittI think Mark is a Fedora Ambassador... and works for ZaReason...03:21
bkerensaYeah03:21
bkerensaWhich is why he couldnt help with the Ubuntu Booth... He was at the Fedora Booth... We all hung out though and of course Jono is amazing03:22
cprofittyes, Jono is amazing03:22
cprofittnight bkerensa 03:41

paultagbkerensa|ZzZz: hody doodie15:43
bkerensa|ZzZzpaultag: Hi15:43
=== bkerensa|ZzZz is now known as bkerensa
paultagbkerensa|ZzZz: I sent you an email, did you get it?15:43
paultagbkerensa: *15:43
paultagbkerensa: also -- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamHowto#Team_Naming_Standards15:43
paultagbkerensa: IRC: ubuntu-us-SS (ie; ubuntu-us-ut for Utah, ubuntu-us-ny for New York, etc)15:44
bkerensapaultag: All I got was the decline notice from launchpad... It said a url slug needed to be adjusted but as far as I can see we are following the standards set in the Howto15:44
paultagOh shit, that's old for LP15:44
bkerensa?15:44
paultagbkerensa: yeah, that page is out of date for LP. Should be ubuntu-us-state_code (or state full id if it's short enough)15:44
paultagbkerensa: because of things like georga, which is a state and a country15:44
paultagI'll fix that now15:44
bkerensaOur channel is #ubuntu-us-or15:44
bkerensa?15:45
paultagbkerensa: that's fine15:45
paultagbkerensa: did you get my email?15:45
bkerensanope15:45
bkerensa:P15:45
bkerensajust something about a url slug15:45
paultagbkerensa: http://pastebin.com/nVr3VVJc15:45
bkerensaI found it :) it went to spam for some reason15:45
paultagRighto15:46
paultagbkerensa: those standards are old, I've never bothered to really read them :)15:46
bkerensapaultag: So we need to change our channel name? I mean most other states even "accepted" locos have the same format we do and our channel has been around quite a long time... As for the e-mail thing for some reason launchpad wasn't allowing me to set contact e-mail Ill try again15:48
paultagbkerensa: no, launchpad name15:48
bkerensaoh ok15:48
bkerensaIll fix that15:48
paultagbkerensa: yes, they do, but that's ex-post-facto :)15:48
paultagbkerensa: we don't want to be assholes to existing teams that are doing well :)15:48
paultagbkerensa: the IRC stuff is cool, just LP needs to move over, we're trying to have a bit more of a standard :)15:49
bkerensayeah15:49
bkerensapaultag: So it wont let me set my e-mail for contact since its associated with my personal launchpad? Can I just put our Mailing list for contact?15:50
paultagbkerensa: I mean for your personal lp page15:50
paultagbkerensa: when I go to your page I can't see your email15:50
bkerensaoh15:50
bkerensa:)15:51
paultagbkerensa: :)15:51
bkerensaYeah that was to prevent spam15:51
bkerensa:P15:51
paultagbkerensa: you have to be logged in to see it15:51
paultag:)15:51
bkerensapaultag: Ok e-mail is done and I updated the Launchpad slug for the Loco15:53
paultagbkerensa: :D15:53
paultagbkerensa: let me check it out, sec15:53
paultagbkerensa: looks flawless15:53
paultagbkerensa: let me add you, second15:53
paultagbkerensa: all set!15:54
paultagjust approve it and it's all set :)15:54
bkerensacool... now we can add events next year when OSCON comes again :P15:54
paultagbkerensa: totally! :)15:54
bkerensapaultag: I have a question so... There is another team on launchpad purporting to be the Oregon LoCo how should we approach that? It causes some confusion to people 15:56
paultagbkerensa: do you have a link?15:56
paultagbkerensa: ah, shit. Can you request to join locoteams again, launchpad's barfing as usual15:57
bkerensaI will have to find it again... One of our members came across it15:57
bkerensapaultag: Yep done15:58
paultagbkerensa: all set :)15:58
paultagbkerensa: you should show up on loco.ubuntu soon15:58
bkerensapaultag: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-oregon-loco15:59
bkerensathats the other one15:59
bkerensaI tried contacting the owner but no response15:59
paultagbkerensa: Ah, looks like they're not a part of locoteams, or anything. You've got the namespace, and there's one member. You have right to the US Oregon namespace16:00
bkerensak16:00
paultagbkerensa: Send them a mail and cc me, and loco-council@lists.ubuntu, and then we can follow up16:00
bkerensawill do16:00
paultagbkerensa: if they don't get back, I'll have it removed, if he does, then we can talk about moving it or him deleting it16:00
bkerensapaultag: Sounds good I will send it in a bit I gotta make some breakfast :) thanks for all the help16:01
paultagbkerensa: sure thing! Good morning :)16:01
paultagbkerensa: got the mail, ACK'd, cheers!16:05
Ronnieping nigelb, on 17 juli, I had send a mail to trademarks@ but i have still no response. Should i wait for response a few days more or can i send a new mail?16:42
nigelbRonnie: hm, the best person to talk to is AlanBell. He probably knows the Canonical folks who deal with it.17:06
RonnieAlanBell: See my message above17:07
cprofittbkerensa: did you issue get resolved with Oregon?18:36
AlanBellRonnie: they are massively unresponsive, most times they seem to take no action. Don't worry about it, if they wanted to do something then you have done your bit.19:01
paultagcprofitt: yeah he did :)19:08
bkerensacprofitt: Yeah... Sorry I just woke up from my third mini-nap :P19:12
cprofittpaultag: thanks bro19:13
cprofittpaultag: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-oregon-loco19:13

paultagcprofitt: yeah saw that19:16
paultagcprofitt: we're dealing with it, email sent and we're working it out19:16
