[00:01] paultag: sure, your hair is too long and you drink too much [00:04] i dont think you can drink too much [00:05] mhall119: :P [00:05] mhall119: I'm working on the whole lack of color thing, but here - http://i.imgur.com/gP5dx.png [00:09] paultag: I'd advise having at least one thumbnail screenshot on the homepage [00:10] mhall119: ack'd - solid idea [00:10] the 3 blocks at the top, for some reason, registered in my brain as inline google ads [00:11] I glossed right over them [00:11] mhall119: you're the second person to say that [00:11] I wanted to make them ignorable [00:11] heh, so you know at least 2 crazy people [00:11] because they're static [00:11] I'll see if I can move that elsewhere [00:13] I also think your headers should be statements or phrases, not questions [00:13] but I have no solid reason for thinking that [00:13] mhall119: I'll be ditching them, moving them somewhere else [00:13] I mean in the main content area [00:13] ah, sure [00:13] yeah OK [00:14] I'm actually okay with the color scheme [00:14] I think the minimalism matches well with Fluxbox [00:15] yeah I was going for that [00:15] but the lack of color was getting to me, I think [00:15] maybe just one accent color, use it on the content headers or something? [00:15] I have the OSI logo in one page and the green pops nicely [00:16] I'll use some green and orange for some call-to-action buttons [00:18] alright got to run [00:18] thanks mhall119 [00:18] np [00:19] also, you don't drink enough [00:25] :( [00:25] loco.ubuntu.com is acting up [00:25] paultag: Do you know if something is up? [00:51] mhall119: I'm getting sober in my old age. Sucks [00:51] bkerensa: I have no idea. Perhaps cjohnston or mhall119 knows. [00:52] * paultag gets back to accordion [00:58] bkerensa: we've been having memory issues on the server, it's likely just apache acting up again [01:04] mhall119: Gotta fine tune those child processes :) [01:04] tuning python is a waste :) [01:06] it's an order-of-magnitude thing [01:06] like yeah, you're going to get it faster, but it's still going to do the same time-consuming things so it can be friendly [01:06] but it's easier to maintain [01:07] paultag: They are using py for loco.ubuntu? Heh go PHP/MySQL my blog is hosted on a VPS and can take epic amounts of traffic ;) [01:09] bkerensa: yeah it's in django [01:10] oh jeez [01:10] =/ [01:10] not my choice :) [01:10] paultag: :) [01:11] paultag: Are LoCo's allowed to advocate for Ubuntu at political protests? [01:11] :) [01:11] politics should be kept as far away as we can keep them [01:11] paultag: I was thinking of bringing some CD's down to the Occupy encampment that has taken over Portland [01:11] bkerensa: we did the same in BOS, but not as a LoCo [01:11] paultag: Even if the LoCo is neutral and just giving out CD's? [01:12] bkerensa: as long as it's not seen as an official Ubuntu team advocating anything, I'm sure it's fine [01:12] paultag: Yeah but there is a fine line because last time I checked Ubuntu Team Lead's have their CoC follow them virtually everywhere [01:13] example: I cannot use profanity or discuss NSFW stuff in a NSFW irc channel [01:13] =/ [01:13] bkerensa: python and django are just fine, something's wrong with the server [01:13] mhall119: Ahh :) [01:13] bkerensa: as long as you do non-CoC stuff with non-ubuntu resources (email, etc) it's OK [01:14] bkerensa: but yeah - as much as I think F/OSS software is communism at it's best, we can't do too much politicking [01:14] * mhall119 does non-coc stuff all the time [01:14] * paultag too [01:15] paultag: ahh ok :) well in example #ORLUG is a LUG channel for Oregonians yet the channel is heavy with adult language and I was told since I'm a lead and people identify me as such that I would have to keep my talk PG [01:15] yeah that's wise. [01:18] paultag: Eucalyptus is sponsoring our Oneiric shirts [01:18] :D [01:18] cost just over $300 [01:18] :) [01:19] paultag: Didnt have enough time to find a food and drink sponsor so its on members this time to buy their own food stuffs [01:19] :D [01:19] :) [01:20] paultag: Any idea whats happening on Wednesday? Is Canonical releasing a laptop or tablet? [01:21] bkerensa: I have no idea. I've been dropping Ubuntu roles, I'm fairly distant from the news-es [01:21] http://thisisthecountdown.com/ [01:21] oh [01:21] paultag: You are still council? [01:21] bkerensa: yep === ejat- is now known as ejat === zz_bigbash is now known as bigbash === bigbash is now known as zz_bigbash [07:10] good morning [07:13] dholbach: good morning [07:13] hi bkerensa [08:12] Aloha [09:36] added all remainging loco team feeds to the LD folks [09:38] I'm tempted to suggest a wishlist item of being able to run team blogs and planets off loco.u.c and do away with a team website altogether considering the luck I'm not getting with the loco drupal update RT> [09:42] head_victim: I've told you re that RT it's out of our hands [09:42] it's canonical IS call [09:42] and it's not a priority I'm afraid [09:42] whats the ticket number and I can poke again [09:42] Yep, hence thinking I might have more luck on loco.u.c ;) [09:43] I was thinking about it the other night, the loco.u.c has taken over most of the traditional needs of a website for a loco anyway. [09:44] The RT is 16894 but yeah, I understand priorities and stuff so I haven't been poking too hard lately. [09:51] head_victim: not all teams can go on there though [09:52] only approived teams [09:52] loco.u.c or drupal? [09:52] on the LD [09:53] right status of the ticket has been triaged [10:21] head_victim: I like that idea. [10:21] head_victim: Making loco directory a sort of home page for each loco. [10:24] Hi all - Open Week starts the next week are there any sessions you all want to teach or would like to see on the schedule [10:26] nigelb: I actually sat down and listed the things we use a webpage for and really the only things missing from loco.u.c is a "news" page, which we're currently using a drupal instance for and a planet page. [10:31] head_victim: That's an interesting requirement. [10:32] nigelb: which one, the news/story page or the planet? [10:35] head_victim: both [10:35] Would make it easier to add team feeds to the front page === daker_ is now known as daker [10:40] head_victim: I've poked re the ticket USA are on hols today so will chase up again tomorrow for you ok [10:40] czajkowski: no dramas, if it comes back "wont fix" at least we'd know to start looking elsewhere. [10:41] Thanks heaps, didn't mean to dump that on you but good to see I've peaked nigelb's interest a little with the other idea. === dholbach_ is now known as dholbach [10:42] head_victim: np I will chase up on things I don't mind [10:42] I guess I'm just never sure how hard to press them for things like that. I completely understand it's not a high priority but then again they did give a timeframe so I just get unsure [10:51] nnope tis cool [10:52] we usually handle it after some time and chase up on it [10:52] makes it easier than 142 people from teams poking IS [10:52] poke us and we poke them [10:52] I do it weekly usually === TheDaniel0108 is now known as Danile0018 [10:58] czajkowski: cheers :) === Danile0018 is now known as Daniel0108 === dholbach_ is now known as dholbach [11:03] head_victim: np any time [11:03] what we're here for [11:27] nigelb: is it worth filing a wish list bug against loco.u.c for discussion on the news stories and planet idea? [11:28] head_victim: I think its better to bring it up to mhall119 and cjohnston to talk about at UDS [11:28] Its a far bigger change than can be discussed in a bug :) [11:28] No worries :) I'll try to collar one of them when I see them about next. [11:52] head_victim: we're slowing adding the functionality to add per-team feeds to LD [11:52] mhall119: to the one feed though right? [11:52] head_victim: the plan is to eventually have per-team aggregation of feeds [11:53] in addition to the front-page aggregation [11:53] mhall119: ah k cool. So that would cover the planet idea. Any future plans to allow news/stories to be put on the site itself per team? I'm not trying to hassle just seeing what's already int he works [11:54] head_victim: not at this time, no [11:54] just aggregation [12:07] Cool, that might still work enough anyway. [12:09] head_victim: again remember the blog posts are only there if they are an offical loco [12:09] and is manually doe [12:09] *done at present [12:10] I'd love w a way for a form to be filled in and mailed me as I dont always think of checking a wiki page tbh [12:11] czajkowski: just trying to think outside the box a little and see if it would benefit others at the same time. No expectations, just thinking really. [12:11] head_victim: yup tis good [13:13] czajkowski: I'm going to add a form for team admins to add feeds for their team, then just a flag for the LC to check to promote it to front page [13:13] yeah even it just gets to our list [13:14] I can moderate it [13:14] but honstly going to a wiki is just not optimal atma is'a slwo process if we get lots more teams adding feeds it's gonna be crazy [13:14] czajkowski: on an unrelated note, I'm glad your new job is going well [13:15] and making it like the normal planet with a file to modify and a merge proposal ? [13:15] YoBoY: no [13:15] YoBoY: it's all in the database, so it'll be web forms [13:15] mhall119: thanks [13:15] mhall119: very different from what I've done before [13:15] make sense [13:15] and yet I still get to do testing and documentation [13:15] czajkowski: learning new things is fun [13:15] but also wire frames [13:15] client reviews of specs [13:16] but it's all about advertising and apps and mobile stuff [13:16] kinda cool [13:16] whatever happened with Apple suing them? [13:16] or is that still ongoing? [13:34] wating to see I guess [13:35] lotta companies in same boat [13:38] !lococouncil [13:38] lococouncil is The Loco Council is itnet7, czajkowski, paultag, huats, leogg, popey - they are there to help, just ask! :) You can send them an email at loco-council@lists.ubuntu.com === dholbach_ is now known as dholbach === Ronnie1 is now known as Ronnie === zz_bigbash is now known as bigbash === jpds_ is now known as jpds
