It involves random publichs to twitter, identica or facebook. Who could I talk to [15:39] status updates [15:40] publishing random pulled eventos from next events [15:40] keffie_jayx: mhall119, cjohnston and nigelb are all good chaps. [15:40] keffie_jayx: I would have a demo site people can sniff it at, and get a branch ready :) [15:40] I send an email to the list asking what would be less intrussive [15:41] Daviey: testing involves having accounts or pages on facebook twitter and identica [15:41] keffie_jayx: the best way to do it would be to propose a merge.. and if you have a demo site.. how similar is it to what is already on LD? [15:41] Daviey: lies [15:41] and, just contact mhall119 [15:41] :P [15:42] It really does not add that much in the interface [15:42] it is all done under the hood adding some variables in local_settings.py [15:42] cjohnston: did you just repeat what i said? :) [15:42] and running some commands in cron [15:43] Daviey: you said ton contact me.. so I said my response.. which may have been yours :-P [15:43] pah [15:43] ok [15:43] quick poll while you are all here [15:43] * Daviey poll vaults outta here. [15:43] does it make sense to have events published regurlarly to twitter identica facebook if so with what frequency? [15:44] every hour? [15:44] keffie_jayx: duplicate announcements? [15:44] wait.. its going to those venues, not displaying stuff on our site from those venues... hmm.. [15:45] i on that topic, I'd bring it up in the ML.. sorry.. I misread the idea.. i dunno [15:45] Is there a LocoDirectory Twitter account with annoucements? [15:45] Daviey: I am sorry I misunderstood [15:45] I think there kinda is, but its rarely used. mhall119 could speak to that [15:46] ahhh see, I was not aware of it, How did I miss it... :S [15:46] thanks guys I will speak to mhall119 then... [15:47] there's a status.net account, I'm not sure about twitter [15:49] keffie_jayx: a diff might help explain your idea ;) [15:50] Geeks tend to grok proof of concept code better than explaing stuff :) [15:50] Daviey: got it :) [15:52] mhall119: wait, http://identi.ca/locodirectory [15:53] there is a hashtag that gets fed to the front page [15:53] right, that's independent of any accounts [15:53] I am talking about LD posting to twitter [15:53] example Status Update [15:53] keffie_jayx: correct [15:53] which means we'll need a twitter account if we don't already have one [15:54] !lococouncil do you guys have an official twitter account? [15:54] !loco-council [15:54] the heck....where's our bot? [15:55] This would go to identi.ca @LoCoDirectory Event: "Ubuntu Global Jam - Quito 2011" Sat Sep 3rd, register here: http://urltoeventiinLD... [15:56] now to test this I would need to set up accounts and pages in facebook... also register an app on behalf of the ubuntu community in twitter and facebook. identica does not require it [15:56] the code is no issue here [15:57] we would only need the accounts and fb page ready and test [15:57] Does that make sense? [15:58] yup [15:58] do you need a user account for twitter, as well as registering an app? [15:59] yes [16:00] it would be better if we register the one we are going to use [16:01] we would need and email linking to the account [16:02] if you want, we can test this on some bogus account with some bogus email [16:02] but it'll double the work imho [16:02] well [16:02] gotta head out [16:03] let me know what you think... I mean to work on this tonight [16:22] mhall119: nope [16:22] we don't and I for one don't want one, if the others do fine. but there is nothing we need to use a council twitter ac for imo [16:22] we all use locoteams tag which was a better idea [16:26] czajkowski: okay, I just wanted to check, since we will need one for keffie_jayx's code [16:26] mhall119: you can ask the others, [16:26] I feel we have enough in the blog tbh [16:27] and we have loco contacts lists [16:27] having yet another place to post to is no a good idea [16:28] czajkowski: keffie_jayx's code will automatically publish news about events from LD, no human intervention needed [16:28] I guess not up to me [16:28] ask loco contacts what they want :) [16:48] czajkowski: I feel it would be beneficial for the LoCo Directory to spread the word on events automagicaly on social networks [16:49] keffie_jayx: we already do though. [16:49] and each team has their own accounts [16:49] czajkowski: manually? [16:49] I do feel you are duplicating things and then people are missing stuff [16:49] keffie_jayx: most locos have their own accounts [16:50] That does not necesarily mean they spread the word [16:51] and besides before the LD came about, people promoted their events and had registration separate [16:51] keffie_jayx: I know many people follow the @ubuntuie either by following or doing a search [16:52] we post to identi.ca and twitter jut for the sake of identi;ca but few are on there [16:52] czajkowski: and @ubuntuie is probably one of the best examples of a locoteam with regards spreading the word [16:52] czajkowski: but this is not always the case [16:53] keffie_jayx: nothing stopping you doing what you want for the LD, as mhall119 said create a LD dev ac [16:53] also consider the idea of having all streams reminding the world how cool we are and how big we are [16:53] and od it that way [16:53] *do [16:54] czajkowski: right, thanks [16:54] keffie_jayx: you don't need my permission to do stuff [16:54] I'm just saying I don't want to have to monitor or check another account [16:54] and the #locoteams tags work well [16:54] dont want the LD being spammed either [16:55] if 14 or more people start to add events on one day, the LD will be messy looking [16:56] czajkowski: but we I work, I kinda wan't to make sure what I mean to do makes sense [16:56] codingwise, I need to be on the same pages as most devs here [16:57] czajkowski: it won't spam if you don't follow the account... [16:57] czajkowski: it won't replace the #locoteams hashtag. It is a completelly different task [16:58] keffie_jayx: so what is the point of creating another ac if you have to follow it ? [16:58] czajkowski: because it needs to work the way twitter works [16:58] I dont know what you're trying to do if not get people to follow yet another @ubuntu ac when teams already use their own [16:59] I mean I dont need to know what a team outside of my country is doing I can look at the LD site and see [16:59] I dont want my twitter ac full of events I wont be attending either [17:00] czajkowski: that is a bit closed minded I think... but that's just me [17:00] it's not [17:00] it's being realistic [17:00] I'm not gonna follow something that tweets events that I wont be going to [17:00] it makes no sense [17:01] sorry [17:02] but me as a member of the community would like to learn about events in other parts of the world. and reshare them, maybe even learn from them and start our own [17:02] ripple effect a bit... [17:02] drive traffic to events in LD [17:02] I guess we have different views [17:02] sorry [17:03] yes [17:03] I just dont want my twitter stream full of stuff I cannot attend [17:03] I can just click on the LD and on events [17:03] and see global events [17:03] or I can follow an idividual teams ac [17:03] maybe we need someone to check this for us... [17:03] mhall119: what do you think... [17:03] czajkowski: or List them... not follow them [17:03] but that depens on how you use twitter [17:04] exactly [17:12] czajkowski: if you follow the ubuntu-ie twitter account, and someone tweets with @ubuntu-ie, does it show in your stream? [17:13] * mhall119 isn't a big twitter user [17:13] yes [17:14] ok, so if we have a team's twitter account name, we can just put it in tweets about that team's events [17:15] so you don't have to follow @LoCoDirectory [17:16] that'd be good [17:16] would mean a person wouldn't get tweets about a b c d e f g h events which have nothing to do with them [17:17] unless they wanted to [17:17] so, best of both [17:17] indeed [17:17] though I really cannot see any reason why you would tbh [17:18] some people get obsessed with Ubuntu [17:18] end up in ever IRC channel that matched #ubuntu* [17:18] * mhall119 looks at nigelb [17:19] yeah... [17:19] no comment so [17:19] besides, we can't post anything to twitter without an account, so it's got to be done [17:19] hey, my ubuntu channels are few. [17:19] for large values of "few" [17:19] I have huge numbers of others [17:19] share buttons on the events page is another way of spreading the word [17:20] keffie_jayx: I like tha :) [17:20] *that [17:20] but we would need design, and decide which share plugins available in django we can use [17:20] ideally if you create an event [17:20] then click tweet this [17:21] or post to FB or twitter would be a nicer way of getting the word out [17:21] or ideally the bug I logged ages ago [17:21] post to mailing list :) [17:21] czajkowski: only if I can put LEP #.... in the ML subject [17:21] ;) [17:22] you bug report was tag as a wont fix at some point? [17:22] ok [17:22] JFDI is our motto. We don't stop anyone going with JFDI for a lot of things. :) [17:22] you know what I'd love? If we would stop getting MemoryErrors on cranberry >:( [17:23] mhall119: what version of django is LD currently using? [17:23] * keffie_jayx is kinda living on the edge :S [17:23] 1.1.2 I believe [17:24] mhall119: me too. [17:24] keffie_jayx: there's a requirements.txt that'll setup the correct virtualenv for development and testing [17:24] or you can use the Makefile [17:24] mhall119: could you also re-review the % problem branch? [17:24] nigelb: did you fix it? [17:25] mhall119: yeah, i resubmitted it. [17:25] .. ok I'm off to code czajkowski mhall119 nigelb cjohnston Daviey thanks [17:25] nigelb: the % problem really, really needs test cases [17:25] np keffie_jayx, thanks for being a part ofit [17:25] again, I should so [17:25] say [17:26] which bug was tagged as wont fix ? [17:26] mhall119: hhm,okay. [17:27] mhall119: ?? [17:29] czajkowski: I don't know which bug [17:29] * mhall119 is cleaning up summit bugs atm [17:29] * nigelb hugs mhall119 [17:29] mhall119: the one about mail teams when an event is created? [17:31] czajkowski: I see bug 538177, which was marked as wishlist [17:31] and bug 806262, which was undecided, but I just marked as wishlist [17:33] I don't see any bug about sending emails that's "Won't Fix" [17:38] aye [19:32] mhall119: if I wanted to create 2 maybe 3 at a push static pages on the LD under the loco council or somewhere clearer how would I do it ? [19:35] czajkowski: right now, either add it to our bzr tree, or attack the text you want to a bug for us to add it, I haven't added the functionality yet to wiki-like content management [19:36] s/attack/attach/ [19:36] though either would work I suppose [19:36] nods [19:36] ok when it's ready I'll poke you [19:36] want to remove making it easy to add content to it [19:36] I dont want it filling up like the wiki pages [19:36] trawling through oodles of pages that are so out of date [20:52] czajkowski: the ability to add content will be restricted to LD devs and LC members [20:52] that was the intent anyway [20:52] for the first round [20:52] nods [20:52] Makes sense tbh [20:52] otherwise it'll get crowded with duff [20:52] there was a suggesetion to allow teams to add pages under their areas, but that would be a second phase === Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan
