[01:35] pleia2: Do you know who I e-mail about the E-mail Alias [01:35] oh wait, actually it should only take a 24 hours from the time you get added to the launchpad group [01:35] it runs on a cron job at like 2AM I think [01:35] bkerensa: it can take up to 4 days [01:35] it only runs a couple time a week [01:35] oh ok [01:35] :D [01:36] everyone had been telling me it was a 2am daily cron :D [01:37] I've never heard of it being daily, it usually takes a few days for them to start working [02:38] i suppose i need to apply at some point [02:38] always feel like i didn't accomplish enough though :) [02:47] jtatum, why do you not? [02:48] why do i not accomplish enough? ;) [02:48] haha === ryaxnb__ is now known as ryaxnb9 === crashsystems is now known as crash|party-ligh === crash|party-ligh is now known as crash|party-hat [05:18] * bkerensa smiles [05:18] from the drinky? [05:18] :) [05:19] indeed [05:40] headache now [05:40] :( [05:40] * bkerensa better go to bed... release party tomorrow [18:29] pleia2: odd someone just randomly appeared =o [18:29] no idea who that is :P [18:38] :) [18:50] If an Ubuntu fork is not officially sanctioned by Shuttleworth... (self.Ubuntu) [18:50] Can it be called "Non-Canonical"? [18:51] lol [18:51] BotenAnna, +1 [19:03] on a serious note it probably violates trademark, but we do have a not-canonical team on launchpad ;) [19:03] "People who do not work for Canonical, but often get mistaken for someone who does." [19:05] Well as long as the trademarks are avoided- the code itself is licensed to be shared- I thought [19:05] of course [19:06] I was referring specifically to the name, which is what she asked about [19:06] Like say Mint, it is not official- although they do say where it originates from [19:06] she wasn't asking about making a fork, she was asking about the name :P [19:06] oh, self.ubuntu? [19:06] 11:50:47 < BotenAnna> Can it be called "Non-Canonical"? [19:07] you probably would get in trouble for calling your distribution "Non-Canonical" [19:07] Canonical is not fully trademarkable - from my understanding [19:07] of course, it's a dictionaryword [19:07] try telling this to Apple :) [19:08] It was explained to me- this was a big reason to create a special licensed font for Ubuntu [19:08] I don't think a computer company called "Non-apple" would last very long in court [19:09] ubuntu and canonical are separate trademarks [19:09] 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] :) [19:10] * 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] sorry, I was just trying to play it safe in advice [19:18] Well of course pleia2 - you are well known for your common sense [19:18] * MarkDude is more known for pushing the envelope ;) [19:18] It was good advice [19:19] * MarkDude likes using the word *canonical* as much as possible with friends in Fedora [19:19] Cringeworthy- [19:19] * MarkDude kept asking if sumthin' was the canonical link for Beefy Miracle --- XD [19:22] How many of them got the joke? [19:23] 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] lol [19:23] but, you know ... headhunters [19:23] * MarkDude thinks FOSS should be one big happy family [19:24] Yep, headhunters are a trip [19:24] 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] "Oh, yeah, I guess I should try to wean myself off that" [19:24] MS [19:25] * 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] as far as evil corporations go [19:25] Well that would be one of the reason I ponder..... [19:25] They just keep doing more antitrust violations since there's no one to hold them to the law. [19:26] Google may in next year [19:26] they are giving them enough rope to hang themself [19:27] The way they un-open sourced the last Android version gives them the ability to rip MS a new one [19:27] it may take a few years in court, but they can outspend them [19:28] IMHO [19:30] Even if they do, antitrust lawsuits take, what, 6 years before there's a decision? [19:38] Yep [19:39] But MS keeps trying to do stuff like this [19:39] Hacktivists can keep it from happening [19:39] Anon caused Sony to mellow a bit [19:41] 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 [20:08] * bkerensa begins packing the Release Party Swag Suitcase [21:30] http://www.ustream.tv/channel/olpc-san-francisco-community-summit-2011 [21:30] Live now [22:33] Apparently OEMS are shipping UEFI laptops already that wont install Linux at all [22:33] I just got word that the HP s5-1110 has UEFI [23:04] Hmmm
