bkerensa | pleia2: Do you know who I e-mail about the E-mail Alias | 01:35 |
---|---|---|
bkerensa | <tgm4883_mobile> oh wait, actually it should only take a 24 hours from the time you get added to the launchpad group | 01:35 |
bkerensa | <tgm4883_mobile> it runs on a cron job at like 2AM I think | 01:35 |
pleia2 | bkerensa: it can take up to 4 days | 01:35 |
pleia2 | it only runs a couple time a week | 01:35 |
bkerensa | oh ok | 01:35 |
bkerensa | :D | 01:35 |
bkerensa | everyone had been telling me it was a 2am daily cron :D | 01:36 |
pleia2 | I've never heard of it being daily, it usually takes a few days for them to start working | 01:37 |
jtatum | i suppose i need to apply at some point | 02:38 |
jtatum | always feel like i didn't accomplish enough though :) | 02:38 |
philipballew | jtatum, why do you not? | 02:47 |
jtatum | why do i not accomplish enough? ;) | 02:48 |
philipballew | haha | 02:48 |

* bkerensa smiles | 05:18 | |
pleia2 | from the drinky? | 05:18 |
pleia2 | :) | 05:18 |
crashsystems | indeed | 05:19 |
bkerensa | headache now | 05:40 |
bkerensa | :( | 05:40 |
* bkerensa better go to bed... release party tomorrow | 05:40 | |
bkerensa | pleia2: odd someone just randomly appeared =o | 18:29 |
bkerensa | no idea who that is :P | 18:29 |
pleia2 | :) | 18:38 |
BotenAnna | If an Ubuntu fork is not officially sanctioned by Shuttleworth... (self.Ubuntu) | 18:50 |
BotenAnna | Can it be called "Non-Canonical"? | 18:50 |
MarkDude | lol | 18:51 |
MarkDude | BotenAnna, +1 | 18:51 |
pleia2 | on a serious note it probably violates trademark, but we do have a not-canonical team on launchpad ;) | 19:03 |
pleia2 | "People who do not work for Canonical, but often get mistaken for someone who does." | 19:03 |
MarkDude | Well as long as the trademarks are avoided- the code itself is licensed to be shared- I thought | 19:05 |
pleia2 | of course | 19:05 |
pleia2 | I was referring specifically to the name, which is what she asked about | 19:06 |
MarkDude | Like say Mint, it is not official- although they do say where it originates from | 19:06 |
pleia2 | she wasn't asking about making a fork, she was asking about the name :P | 19:06 |
MarkDude | oh, self.ubuntu? | 19:06 |
pleia2 | 11:50:47 < BotenAnna> Can it be called "Non-Canonical"? | 19:06 |
pleia2 | you probably would get in trouble for calling your distribution "Non-Canonical" | 19:07 |
MarkDude | Canonical is not fully trademarkable - from my understanding | 19:07 |
pleia2 | of course, it's a dictionaryword | 19:07 |
pleia2 | try telling this to Apple :) | 19:07 |
MarkDude | It was explained to me- this was a big reason to create a special licensed font for Ubuntu | 19:08 |
pleia2 | I don't think a computer company called "Non-apple" would last very long in court | 19:08 |
pleia2 | ubuntu and canonical are separate trademarks | 19:09 |
MarkDude | Well not to be persnickety, but, if you wanted to BotenAnna - I would be willing to get some case law on why you most likely COULD use that name | 19:09 |
MarkDude | :) | 19:09 |
* MarkDude started out in college tryine to be a lawyer, but stopped due to the way it should be- and the way the law works are two entirely separate things at times | 19:10 | |
pleia2 | sorry, I was just trying to play it safe in advice | 19:10 |
MarkDude | Well of course pleia2 - you are well known for your common sense | 19:18 |
* MarkDude is more known for pushing the envelope ;) | 19:18 | |
MarkDude | It was good advice | 19:18 |
* MarkDude likes using the word *canonical* as much as possible with friends in Fedora | 19:19 | |
MarkDude | Cringeworthy- | 19:19 |
* MarkDude kept asking if sumthin' was the canonical link for Beefy Miracle --- XD | 19:19 | |
akk | How many of them got the joke? | 19:22 |
MarkDude | akk, most of them | 19:23 |
* akk got a recruiter call about a job for "the company behind ubuntu linux" who seemed surprised when I knew the name canonical | 19:23 | |
MarkDude | lol | 19:23 |
akk | but, you know ... headhunters | 19:23 |
* MarkDude thinks FOSS should be one big happy family | 19:23 | |
MarkDude | Yep, headhunters are a trip | 19:24 |
akk | This one was better than most, had the grace to sound embarrassed when I questioned her after she asked for a Word format resume. | 19:24 |
* MarkDude has been pondering the real Dark Side of the Force | 19:24 | |
akk | "Oh, yeah, I guess I should try to wean myself off that" | 19:24 |
MarkDude | MS | 19:24 |
* MarkDude wont think about Oracle offers, but have heard some good stuff about MS | 19:25 | |
* akk was reading about secure boot again this morning and getting angry | 19:25 | |
MarkDude | as far as evil corporations go | 19:25 |
MarkDude | Well that would be one of the reason I ponder..... | 19:25 |
akk | They just keep doing more antitrust violations since there's no one to hold them to the law. | 19:25 |
MarkDude | Google may in next year | 19:26 |
MarkDude | they are giving them enough rope to hang themself | 19:26 |
MarkDude | The way they un-open sourced the last Android version gives them the ability to rip MS a new one | 19:27 |
MarkDude | it may take a few years in court, but they can outspend them | 19:27 |
MarkDude | IMHO | 19:28 |
akk | Even if they do, antitrust lawsuits take, what, 6 years before there's a decision? | 19:30 |
MarkDude | Yep | 19:38 |
MarkDude | But MS keeps trying to do stuff like this | 19:39 |
MarkDude | Hacktivists can keep it from happening | 19:39 |
MarkDude | Anon caused Sony to mellow a bit | 19:39 |
MarkDude | MS has not felt the mob in its full strength. YES, thats scary. If MS has shown one thing- they are pushy til they get pushback- then they get scared of another decade long lawsuit | 19:41 |
* bkerensa begins packing the Release Party Swag Suitcase | 20:08 | |
MarkDude | http://www.ustream.tv/channel/olpc-san-francisco-community-summit-2011 | 21:30 |
MarkDude | Live now | 21:30 |
bkerensa | Apparently OEMS are shipping UEFI laptops already that wont install Linux at all | 22:33 |
bkerensa | I just got word that the HP s5-1110 has UEFI | 22:33 |
MarkDude | Hmmm | 23:04 |
