| razorgoto | Well, we're doing this thing with Seneca this year. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| razorgoto | They do FSOSS every year and they have the space, resources, people and volunteers to manage and plan a big event. | 00:00 |
| razorgoto | Basically, it will be at Seneca @ York... so not in Scarborough. | 00:01 |
| BobJonkman | Are you still accepting speakers for LinuxFest? | 00:01 |
| razorgoto | Bob, totally. | 00:01 |
| dscassel | razorgoto: I put in my proposal. :) | 00:01 |
| razorgoto | Actually, we had a dearth of speakers this year so far. | 00:01 |
| razorgoto | I am encouraging everyone I know to join. | 00:02 |
| razorgoto | We are also, on top of the conference, doing an unconference on the last day. | 00:02 |
| razorgoto | So that will be more a breakout time to do more workshops and conferences. Maybe of a more impromptu nature. | 00:03 |
| dscassel | Cool. | 00:03 |
| dscassel | Well, it's after 8. | 00:04 |
| razorgoto | time does fly swiftly. | 00:04 |
| dscassel | Oneiric is out Oct. 13 so get planning release parties! | 00:04 |
| BobJonkman | Before we break up, any words on Oneiric's Release Party? | 00:04 |
| BobJonkman | :) | 00:05 |
| dscassel | BobJonkman: We'll have one in Kwartzlab. I'm hoping there's a Toronto one again. :) | 00:05 |
| razorgoto | Oneiric is the LTS. Right? | 00:05 |
| dscassel | I haven't heard about any others. | 00:05 |
| dscassel | razorgoto: Nope. 12.04 is LTS. | 00:05 |
| SIR_Taco | anything in Kingston? haha | 00:05 |
| psema4mobile | There can only be ONEiric! | 00:05 |
| razorgoto | lol. | 00:05 |
| dscassel | SIR_Taco: If you hold one there will be. :D | 00:05 |
| BobJonkman | Ubuntu Release Parties are easy to arrange. | 00:06 |
| razorgoto | The last Ubuntu Release party was great fun here in Toronto. | 00:06 |
| BobJonkman | The toughest part is getting the Ubuntu logo on the Devilled Eggs! | 00:06 |
| dscassel | Probably better Oneiric isn't an LTS. Don't want to have to keep trying to pronounce it for 5 years. | 00:06 |
| SIR_Taco | dscassel: been holding my breath for awhile now haha | 00:06 |
| razorgoto | I will try to get in touch with Mike to see if he will be doing it again. | 00:06 |
| dscassel | razorgoto: Great! | 00:07 |
| dscassel | SIR_Taco: There's gotta be at least a couple Ubuntu users at Queen's... | 00:07 |
| BobJonkman | SIR_Taco: Just make an announcement, gather in some local establishment, and burn some CDs from the new ISO | 00:08 |
| BobJonkman | It might turn into an installfest if people bring laptops | 00:08 |
| psema4mobile | Im afraid I need to drop off. battery's getting pretty low. Nice to meet you all! | 00:08 |
| dscassel | Or just, you know, hang out. :) | 00:08 |
| psema4mobile | BobJonkman catch up with you soon? | 00:09 |
| dscassel | psema4mobile: No problem thanks for coming out. :) | 00:09 |
| BobJonkman | Just the thought that it's legal to burn CDs of an operating system is news to some people | 00:09 |
| psema4mobile | l8tr | 00:09 |
| BobJonkman | OK psema4mobile, talk to you soon | 00:09 |
| razorgoto | gotta say the oneric is hard to spell... | 00:10 |
| SIR_Taco | that's possible | 00:10 |
| BobJonkman | dscassel: Do you have a date yet for the KW URP? | 00:12 |
| dscassel | Oct 15. | 00:14 |
| BobJonkman | Yay! | 00:14 |
| dscassel | (The saturday after release, as per tradition. | 00:15 |
| dscassel | (Wait, when's thanksgiving?) | 00:15 |
| dscassel | (the Monday before. Phew) | 00:15 |
| BobJonkman | 10 Oct | 00:15 |
| SIR_Taco | the weekend before that | 00:15 |
| SIR_Taco | oooh, I'm a birthday turkey again this year haha | 00:15 |
| dscassel | SIR_Taco: heh. :) | 00:16 |
| razorgoto | guys, I've been at work long enough. My Windows computer just crashed. I am going home. | 00:18 |
| razorgoto | I emailed some people at Free Geek about taking on more activities next two months so we can do some of these stuff in Toronto (Center of Universe.) | 00:19 |
| razorgoto | See you later. | 00:20 |
| SIR_Taco | cya razorgoto | 00:20 |
| SIR_Taco | I always miss the meeting haha | 00:21 |
| BobJonkman | Bye razorgoto | 00:21 |
| cvillaco | nice chattin with ya | 00:21 |
| razorgoto | bye | 00:22 |
| dscassel | Thanks for coming out, guys. :) | 00:32 |
| cyphermox | dscassel, poke | 00:37 |
| cyphermox | sorry, just finished reading backlog | 00:38 |
| cyphermox | dscassel: might be worth pointing out LinuxConNA next week in Vancouver (I'll be heading out to there on Tuesday) | 00:38 |
| cyphermox | dscassel: also, please ping me if you're in Montreal on Monday or before, maybe I can make time | 00:39 |
| dscassel | cyphermox: Oh yeah! | 00:46 |
| dscassel | There's an open source thing in Ottawa in a couple weeks too. | 00:46 |
| dscassel | With rms and everything. | 00:46 |
| cyphermox | fun fun | 00:46 |
| bregma | wait, what? | 00:47 |
| bregma | what open source thing in Ottawa? I might convince my company to pay | 00:48 |
| dscassel | bregma: hold on.. | 00:49 |
| dscassel | bregma: Found it! | 00:55 |
| cyphermox | yay for stuff in Ottawa. this is within driveable distance within a day :) | 00:55 |
| dscassel | http://fosslc.org/drupal/sc2011 | 00:55 |
| dscassel | I'll actually be in Ottawa on the 27th, but I've got a train ticket that leaves at 1pm. :( | 00:56 |
| dscassel | Funny, tho, that the fsf where's rms page doesn't list it. | 00:57 |
| dscassel | It says he's suppoed to be in the UK that week. | 00:57 |
| dscassel | BTW, a little bit of self-promotion I forgot to do at the meeting, I'm putting myself up for Ubuntu membership next week, if you're interested in giving me a testamonial... | 00:59 |
| dscassel | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/dscassel | 01:00 |
| cyphermox | dscassel: absolutely, thanks for bringing it up | 01:00 |
| cyphermox | i thought the meeting was this week though | 01:00 |
| cyphermox | I stand corrected | 01:01 |
| bregma | dang, August 27 is my brother's 50th birthday party in Hamilton, I can't miss that | 01:05 |
| dscassel | bregma: Maybe your brother will want to meet St IGNUcious for his birthday... :) | 01:13 |
| bregma | unlikely | 01:14 |
| khoover | did i miss everything? | 02:18 |
| dscassel | khoover: There's always something. :) | 02:20 |
| * dscassel may be lying... | 02:20 | |
| dscassel | Still, if there's anything you want to bring up, I haven't done the minutes yet. | 02:20 |
| khoover | does that something involve beer and/or code? | 02:20 |
| khoover | oh, not really. | 02:21 |
| dscassel | Drink/code 'em if you got em. | 02:21 |
| khoover | meant more if we had it here... | 02:21 |
| khoover | last time i tried to adopt ubuntu, it destroyed my music library. probably cause i had the thing partitioned onto it, and there were two filesystems on one physical drive | 02:23 |
| dscassel | khoover: Where's "here"? :) | 02:23 |
| dscassel | khoover: Ouch. Yeah. I've learned from hard experience to be very, very careful about that stuff. | 02:24 |
| khoover | here in channel, ofc. where else? | 02:24 |
| khoover | my house? :P | 02:24 |
| * dscassel hands khoover a beer. | 02:24 | |
| khoover | sudo cp beer beer2 | 02:26 |
| * khoover hands dscassel beer2 | 02:26 | |
| khoover | cheers | 02:27 |
| khoover | forever alone... | 02:30 |
| dscassel | :) | 02:31 |
| dscassel | I'm at the Kwartzlab hackerspace for Open Night. | 02:34 |
| dscassel | Webcam here: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/kwartzlab :) | 02:34 |
| * dscassel is actually on camera. Say hi and I'll wave. | 02:35 | |
| khoover | bah, was trying to come up with some clever script for multiplying beer. | 02:43 |
| BobJonkman | Whoops. Thought the meeting was over already | 02:44 |
| khoover | dscassel: are you the balded one? | 02:45 |
| khoover | BobJonkman: it pretty much is | 02:45 |
| BobJonkman | I uploaded the log a couple of hours ago. I'll have to add the stuff about Ottawa | 02:47 |
| BobJonkman | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2011-08-09/log | 02:47 |
| dscassel | Thanks, BobJonkman | 02:55 |
| dscassel | Bald*ing*, I'll thank you. | 02:55 |
| dscassel | The webcam doesn't have the resolution to pick up the hair that's there. :) | 02:56 |
| dscassel | wave... | 02:56 |
| dscassel | Ben's in the foreground. He's standing in front of me right now. I'm in the back at the table. | 02:56 |
| khoover | oh, ben's the bald one. | 02:57 |
| khoover | so, exactly what goes on at hackathons | 02:57 |
| dscassel | Hacking. :D | 02:58 |
| dscassel | It's not actually the Global Synchronous Hackathon. | 02:58 |
| dscassel | Nobody changed the headline. | 02:58 |
| BobJonkman | dscassel: Do you already have IRC minutes prepared? | 02:58 |
| dscassel | BobJonkman: Were you working on it? | 02:59 |
| dscassel | I started but got distracted. Don't have much. | 02:59 |
| BobJonkman | Not yet. Took a break for dinner and a movie. | 02:59 |
| BobJonkman | Movie was awful, dinner was OK | 02:59 |
| dscassel | Fair enough. :) | 02:59 |
| khoover | can we not simply script what the scribe-bot got into something human-legible? | 02:59 |
| BobJonkman | Was there a scribe-bot? | 03:00 |
| khoover | there usually is | 03:00 |
| BobJonkman | Or are you talking about me? | 03:00 |
| dscassel | Bob posted the log. | 03:00 |
| khoover | no, the...aw, hang on | 03:01 |
| BobJonkman | What I usually do is pick out the highlights and make it sound official | 03:01 |
| dscassel | We're not using a meeting bot. | 03:01 |
| dscassel | (Because I haven't figured out how, mostly). | 03:01 |
| dscassel | (And I don't mind being a bit less formal) | 03:01 |
| BobJonkman | It's my writing style. Dry and turgid | 03:02 |
| khoover | here we go | 03:03 |
| khoover | http://logs.ubuntu-eu.org/freenode/2011/08/10/%23ubuntu-ca.html | 03:03 |
| dscassel | Yeah, that's the log. :) | 03:04 |
| khoover | well, my mistake in calling it scribe-bot. | 03:04 |
| khoover | could've sworn i saw it called a bot somewhere... | 03:04 |
| BobJonkman | Not unlike http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/08/09/%23ubuntu-ca.html#t23:00 | 03:04 |
| BobJonkman | I think that comes from locobot_1 | 03:04 |
| khoover | damn, son, it's even colour coded | 03:06 |
| khoover | auuuuuugh, why'd i leave rtf's on office. | 03:13 |
| cvillaco | speaking of formatting | 03:20 |
| cvillaco | i hate to inturrupt, but i been wondering for awhile and never found the best time to ask | 03:21 |
| cvillaco | i been using empathy right now for irc chat | 03:21 |
| cvillaco | but the text is too small for me, how can i change the empathy chat text size? Does anyone know offhand | 03:22 |
| cvillaco | ? | 03:22 |
| khoover | should be ctrl++ or ctrl+- | 03:24 |
| khoover | at least, that works for near everything | 03:24 |
| cvillaco | not in this case khoover | 03:30 |
| cvillaco | and i have found no formatting preferences or settings yet either. | 03:30 |
| cvillaco | thanks for the advice though :) | 03:30 |
| cvillaco | but no luck so far | 03:31 |
| dscassel | Hm... lemme poke around... | 03:32 |
| cvillaco | perhaps this is something which can be changed via global text sizing for the os? | 03:33 |
| cvillaco | ok | 03:33 |
| cvillaco | ty | 03:33 |
| dscassel | Also weird: the Ubuntu theme doesn't use the Ubuntu font. o_o | 03:34 |
| cvillaco | touchee! | 03:34 |
| cvillaco | there are android fonts in the repos ehh? | 03:35 |
| dscassel | What package? | 03:35 |
| cvillaco | I have it installed and use the android mono space for terminal | 03:35 |
| cvillaco | 1 sec, i will try to grep | 03:36 |
| dscassel | Just searching for "android" in software centre doesn't turn anything up. | 03:37 |
| cvillaco | in synaptic | 03:38 |
| cvillaco | ttf-droid | 03:38 |
| cvillaco | and | 03:38 |
| dscassel | I've got it installed alread. Awesome. :D | 03:39 |
| dscassel | Nice mono font. :) | 03:39 |
| cvillaco | haha, i set it up for my terminal and a few other places i have used it | 03:40 |
| cvillaco | I think one of the sansarrifs is pretty cool as well | 03:40 |
| cvillaco | I like the ubuntu sans as well, it is nice, i am surprised it is not in empathy by default, especially setting it to Ubuntu theme. | 03:41 |
| cvillaco | I have trouble typing right now becasue i have a hand brace, and it is very frusterating to work on the computer with it | 03:41 |
| cvillaco | maybe the font seeting is in an empathy config file | 03:42 |
| dscassel | It's not in gconf, far as I can tell. | 03:42 |
| BobJonkman | The minutes, they be up : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2011-08-09 | 03:43 |
| dscassel | Awesome, thanks, BobJonkman | 03:46 |
| BobJonkman | You're welcome. | 03:47 |
| BobJonkman | I'm displeased with the vertical spacing that bullet points create | 03:47 |
| dscassel | Yeah, something's wrong with the CSS for links. | 03:48 |
| cvillaco | huh? | 03:48 |
| cvillaco | looks good to me | 03:49 |
| dscassel | cvillaco: Then you probably aren't using the Ubuntu light theme. :) | 03:50 |
| dscassel | (Or maybe it's a Firefox thing) | 03:50 |
| cvillaco | hmm | 03:51 |
| cvillaco | i do see | 03:51 |
| cvillaco | some spacing in the ul can you inset css into the template? | 03:52 |
| cvillaco | i think it's inheriting a line-height of 1.5 | 03:52 |
| cvillaco | hmm | 03:53 |
| cvillaco | also there are p tags in li, making a double linebreak | 03:53 |
| cvillaco | if the p's in li could be changed to non block level | 03:53 |
| cvillaco | if the css could be changed, im sure the spacing could be fixed, but it might just be the way the develoeprs of the site prefer listing too | 03:54 |
| cvillaco | i could troubleshoot styles like this but it is hard i have a finger brace on | 03:54 |
| dscassel | Not sure who you'd complain to. | 03:55 |
| cvillaco | and it is frusterating to do any navigation or typing | 03:55 |
| dscassel | Probably ask around in #ubuntu-website | 03:55 |
| dscassel | cvillaco: If you change the "Documentation font" size in preferences > Appearances, it'll change the font in Empathy. | 03:57 |
| dscassel | And now it is midnight. I shall retire. | 03:58 |
| dscassel | 'night all. :) | 03:58 |
| cvillaco | thanks dscassel. | 03:59 |
| bregma | nighty-night | 03:59 |
| bregma | time to leave work at last | 03:59 |
| DarwinSurvivor | I missed it didn't I... | 04:32 |
| cvillaco | the LoCo meeting? | 04:33 |
| DarwinSurvivor | yeah | 04:34 |
| cvillaco | yes! | 04:34 |
| cvillaco | just by a few hours though :-) | 04:34 |
| DarwinSurvivor | the one that started 5 hours ago :P | 04:34 |
| DarwinSurvivor | lol | 04:35 |
| DarwinSurvivor | oh well, next time I guess | 04:35 |
| cvillaco | some of the meeting i think trailed on so im not sure how long since the end, but you missed the start by a few :-) | 04:35 |
| DarwinSurvivor | anything interresting happen? | 04:35 |
| cvillaco | im kinda new member, | 04:37 |
| cvillaco | there were talks about jams happening | 04:37 |
| cvillaco | here is some information on the meeting | 04:37 |
| cvillaco | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2011-08-09 | 04:37 |
| cvillaco | and a og has been kept | 04:38 |
| cvillaco | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2011-08-09/log | 04:38 |
| cvillaco | :-) | 04:38 |
| cvillaco | i would tell more but some of it went over my head, and I have a hand brace | 04:39 |
| DarwinSurvivor | cool, i'll just take a look at the logs then, thanks | 04:59 |
