[08:02] <dholbach> good morning
[08:13] <dpm> good morning all
[08:14] <nigelb> ahoy dpm
[08:14] <dpm> hey nigelb, how's it going?
[08:15] <nigelb> Pretty good/1
[08:15] <nigelb> err s/\1/!/g
[08:15] <popey> Morning
[08:15] <nigelb> I just got my passport back with visa for this weekend's trip.
[08:16] <dpm> hey popey
[08:16] <nigelb> Also got back from printing a bunch of stickers! http://i.imgur.com/Kpja0.jpg
[08:16] <nigelb> hey popey! How's the new job? :)
[08:17] <dholbach> nigelb, popey's doing great - he closed two internal mailing lists already
[08:18] <nigelb> dholbach: hahahaha. Very efficient.
[08:25] <dholbach> huats, salut mon ami - ça va?
[08:27] <dholbach> cjohnston, so I mailed IS and they said the change of threads/etc in wsgi had been done to deal with a specific problem - I guess I will need more data to improve the situation for harvest
[10:57] <czajkowski> http://thenextweb.com/shareables/2011/11/09/absolutely-amazing-6th-grade-iphone-app-developer-speaks-at-tedx/
[10:58] <czajkowski> wow amazing kid
[11:07] <alourie> czajkowski: incredible
[11:10] <czajkowski> alourie: this makes me happy http://ostatic.com/blog/the-automotive-linux-summit-marks-linuxs-bright-future-in-vehicles
[11:11] <alourie> oh yea
[11:55] <duanedesign> morning all
[11:56] <czajkowski> duanedesign: howyd
[11:57] <duanedesign> hello ello
[12:22] <cjohnston> dholbach: I don't know.. I'm not sure why harvest has such a hard time
[12:32] <AlanBell> should harvest have an a11y option?
[12:32] <AlanBell> as in limit to bugs tagged a11y
[12:44] <dholbach> AlanBell, bdmurray could help make that happen
[12:44] <dholbach> and/or a bug on lp:harvest-data
[12:44] <dholbach> generally I think it's great to make more use of the tags that we already have in LP
[12:45] <dholbach> although at some stage we'll need another layer of categorisation in data sources so it's easier to spot what you're looking for
[12:45] <AlanBell> bug 890665
[12:45] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 890665 in harvest-data "please add a11y tag to harvest" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/890665
[12:45] <AlanBell> Pendulum: ^^
[12:46] <dholbach> thanks
[12:46] <dholbach> lunch time!
[12:53] <Daviey> greg-g: The offlineimap bug you reported, did you notice it only happend when you were on a crappy net connection?
[12:57] <popey> Daviey: which bug is that?
[13:01] <Daviey> popey: bug 883993
[13:01] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 883993 in offlineimap "offlineimap 6.3.3 deleting messages erroneously" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/883993
[13:02] <popey> erk
[13:02] <Daviey> I've noticed mail gets rm'd locally, if i am on a crap (such as 3g), or restrictive network
[13:02] <Daviey> I hadn't lost mail, just a chore to resync.
[13:36] <alourie> hello
[13:37] <alourie> I was just playing with an idea for unity
[13:47] <czajkowski> my news feed has some interesting stuff today. http://za.movember.com/mospace/2603200/
[13:58] <popey> haha
[14:00] <czajkowski> popey: aye I did smile, but fair fecks to him
[14:44] <nigelb> jcastro: ping
[14:44] <jcastro> p o n g
[14:44] <nigelb> jcastro: Do you think its safe to let open the etherpad gates now?
[14:44] <dholbach> dpm, jcastro: so I guess that's no team meeting today
[14:44] <jcastro> sure
[14:45] <cjohnston> he is off today dholbach
[14:45] <nigelb> cool, I'll get it done.
[14:46] <popey> https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-z7l_GLUlslY/TrTy8c13UiI/AAAAAAAAE-0/wSPvW-JiOhE/s512/jonobacon4.jpg
[14:46] <dpm> dholbach, yes, I thought there wouldn't be one with jono away
[14:46] <popey> busy growing his tash
[14:46]  * dholbach nods
[14:46] <jcastro> hahahaha
[14:46] <jcastro> that is awesome
[14:46] <nigelb> hahhaa
[14:46] <dholbach> oh my god
[14:47] <jcastro> dholbach: all I really need is my dumb BPs approved so I can have my chart.
[14:47] <cjohnston> poor jcastro
[14:47] <dholbach> I thought 1-on-1 video call with Jono in bath robe was bad - that pic is worse
[14:47] <nigelb> wait a minute.. what?
[14:47] <nigelb> 1-on-1 call with Jono in bath robe...
[14:47] <jcastro> tmi
[14:47] <popey> +1
[14:47] <dholbach> last Friday
[14:48] <nigelb> jcastro: +1
 dholbach, lets do G+
 ok
 although you get to see me in a robe
[14:48] <dholbach>  or what I prefer to refer to as a smoking jacket
[14:48] <dholbach> nigelb, you commented on that :)
[14:48] <nigelb> I did?
[14:48] <mhall119> it was a different nigelb, there's at least 3 of them
[14:49] <mhall119> how did you think he managed to be involved in so many things?
[14:49] <nigelb> lol.
[14:49] <dholbach> yeah, good point
[14:49] <nigelb> Reminds me I need to write my talk for Saturday.
[14:49] <nigelb> Zomg, talking in front of a completly new audience is going to be hard.
[14:50] <scott-work> good morning
[14:50] <cjohnston> hey scott-work
[14:50] <scott-work> hi cjohnston :)
[14:51] <nigelb> dholbach: Ah right. Now I remember :)
[14:51] <nigelb> I was fairly zombied last friday :D
[15:05]  * dpm goes for a break
[16:10] <akgraner> Is there some commandline magic to convert a pdf to an odt or doc file
[16:11] <akgraner> cutting and pasting kinda stinks...
[16:13] <mhall119> akgraner: poppler-utils package has a pdftotext program
[16:13] <akgraner> mhall119, thanks!
[16:14] <mhall119> np
[16:14] <akgraner> dropping it into googledocs and one cut and paste I found out works too :-) but I'd rather not do that with everything...:-/
[16:15] <mhall119> I don't know of one that'll convert txt to odt, but you can just open the txt in LibreOffice I think
[16:43] <jcastro> daker_: do you happen to know how/why there is no link to older articles at the bottom of cloud.ubuntu.com?
[16:47] <jcastro> daker: do you happen to know how/why there is no link to older articles at the bottom of cloud.ubuntu.com?
[16:47] <technoviking> hmmm.. should I use the Etherpad ppa or the repo from Etherpad?
[16:48] <jcastro> etherpad-lite charm!
[16:48] <jcastro> old etherpad = boo
[16:50] <technoviking> there packages for etherpad lite?
[16:51] <jcastro> no, it's just node.js stuff
[16:51] <jcastro> I think there might be for 11.10
[16:53] <daker> jcastro, that's what kim0/jono wanted
[16:53] <daker> older posts are in /planet
[16:53] <jcastro> ah
[16:54] <daker> jcastro, http://94.23.51.119:8000/
[16:55] <jcastro> is that an older one?
[16:55] <daker> no a new one
[16:56] <jcastro> hmm, how does this relate to the web team's plan to redesign it?
[17:01] <dholbach> alright my friends - I call it a day - see you all tomorrow
[17:02] <dpm> see you dholbach, about to call it a day here too!
[17:02] <daker> it's my own work, the mockups are made by Mat Tomaszewski from canonical
[17:02] <jcastro> ah ok
[17:02] <jcastro> They want to redo them
[17:02] <jcastro> want me to bring you into the plan, etc.?
[17:03] <jcastro> there's like new people on the web team and I don't think they know who you are
[17:09] <jcastro> daker: also, how can I modify the theme? We'd like to just make anything tagged "cloud" be featured.
[17:09] <jcastro> I see the page and theme file in wordpress, but it says I need to make the file writeable
[17:09] <daker> jcastro, ok
[17:09] <jcastro> because the people being syndicated always forget to tag it "featured"
[17:10] <jcastro> so we thought just making the whole thing "cloud" will get them on the planet and the front page at the same time
[17:10] <daker> jcastro, the IS won't give you write access to the files
[17:10] <jcastro> ok, so if I need to make a change I need to file a ticket?
[17:11] <daker> so i need to make the changes on my branch
[17:11] <jcastro> oh ok
[17:12] <jcastro> so basically on this page: Ubuntu Cloud/uecv2: page-home.php
[17:12] <jcastro>                 <?php query_posts('tag=featured&showposts=5&orderby=ASC'); ?>
[17:12] <jcastro> sub featured for "cloud" should do it right?
[17:12] <jcastro> hey so should I just file bugs on this?
[17:13] <daker> jcastro, wait, so i'ill be like this :
[17:13] <daker> <?php query_posts('tag=cloud&showposts=5&orderby=ASC'); ?>
[17:13] <daker> ?
[17:13] <daker> s/i/it
[17:13] <jcastro> right
[17:13] <jcastro> that would automagically put any post tagged "cloud" on the front page right?
[17:14] <daker> yep
[17:14] <daker> only 5 posts
[17:14] <jcastro> perfect
[17:15] <jcastro> Should I file bugs for the rest of the feedback we got during UDS?
[17:16] <daker> jcastro, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-cloud-portal
[17:16] <jcastro> <3 thanks
[17:17] <jcastro> off to the store for a minute, bbi 15
[17:30] <greg-g> Daviey: no, I don't think so. Unless you count K9 Mail on my phone /me shrugs
[17:52] <AlanBell> doctormo-other: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-uk/1409/detail/ confirmed for the 9th December, not sure if you are going to be over early enough for that
[18:01] <daker> jcastro, just tell IS to go to <cloud_portal_path>/wp-content/themes/uecv2
[18:01] <daker> and do a bzr pull
[18:17] <pleia2> jcastro: we have an Ubuntu Classroom Q&A session with Amanda Brock on the calendar for friday, do you know if that's still happening?
[18:20] <jcastro> pleia2: no clue, you might want to mail her
[18:20] <jcastro> pleia2: also, do I go ahead and update the classroom wiki page with Mark's info?
[18:20] <jcastro> I can probably announce all this stuff today
[18:22] <pleia2> jcastro: we just have the calendar and classroom blog for upcoming info, if you post the text somewhere I can cross-post the announcement to the classroom blog
[18:22] <jcastro> ok
[18:23] <jcastro> Working the blog post now
[18:23] <jcastro> can I consider the "room" reserved?
[18:23] <pleia2> jcastro: do you have amanda's contact info? she doesn't provide an email address on lanchpad
[18:23] <pleia2> yes, akgraner has added it to the classroom calendar
[18:24] <maco> pleia2: first.last@canonical?
[18:25] <pleia2> maco: got it, thanks
[18:26] <jcastro> akgraner: get your syndication button ready
[18:37] <akgraner> jcastro alrighty :-)

[18:45] <akgraner> pleia2, adding jcastro 's post to the fridge now
[18:48] <doctormo-other> pleia2, cjohnston: I'm building an alpha of groundcontrol2 in my ppa, would you guys be up for testing it?
[18:51] <akgraner> jcastro - ok I've dented tweeted fb'd and Fridge'd your post...
[18:51] <jcastro> \o/
[18:53] <mhall119> aw, I'll be on vacation
[18:56] <jcastro> technoviking: hey
[18:56] <jcastro> does new VB have support for Markdown?
[18:57] <technoviking> there are some plugins
[18:58] <jcastro> because really, bbcode
[18:58] <jcastro> is rocking like it's 1994
[18:59] <pleia2> lol
[19:00] <pleia2> nhandler has a script that converts wiki syntax to wiki for UWN
[19:00] <pleia2> err, to forum
[19:00] <jcastro> moin syntax, there's another one that needs to DIE.
[19:01] <technoviking> jcastro: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=265417
[19:01] <pleia2> actually, not nhandler, but it exists anyway
[19:01] <jcastro> "Please note: In a Markdown Enabled forum BB Code will not work so don't turn a forum with existing posts into a Markdown forum- you'd be best off making a new forum for this mod."
[19:01] <jcastro> ouch
[19:02] <technoviking> i say burn the forums with fire , I can say that now :)
[19:02] <technoviking> JK
[19:03] <technoviking> etherpad-lite does rock
[19:03] <jcastro> yeah
[19:04] <jcastro> no need for old etherpad any more
[19:05] <czajkowski> at times like this I really want to be able to go to a firing range. I'm sure it would be very useful
[19:09] <pleia2> it is, but I've found the going to the gym to be similarly useful (and cheaper! and is good for my health!)
[19:43] <snap-l> jcastro: If I never have to type in BBCode ever again, it'll be too soon.
[19:48] <AlanBell> technoviking: have you been playing with etherpad-lite?
[19:48] <technoviking> AlanBell: works great
[19:49] <AlanBell> what are you using it for?
[19:49] <technoviking> pleia2: agree, I do 30-45 minute on the elliptical at night, down 40 pounds since UDS-O
[19:49] <czajkowski> technoviking: wow well done
[19:49] <technoviking> AlanBell: note taking during group meetings
[19:50] <doctormo-other> That's a good reduction
[19:50] <technoviking> hoping to be down to 220 Lb (60 pound off) by Scale 10x
[19:50] <technoviking> if the holidays don't kill the diet
[20:18] <technoviking> AlanBell: wordle export does not work for me, miss .doc and .pdf export also
[20:19] <AlanBell> you probably need to tell it where libreoffice is for the doc and pdf
[20:20] <AlanBell> I have not got it installed yet, we are going to hack in some ubuntu single sign on stuff and integrate it with summit
[20:48] <technoviking> AlanBell: uses abiword now instead of libreoffice
[20:50] <duanedesign> doctormo-other: aweswome, a new hroundcontrol to test?
[20:50] <doctormo-other> duanedesign: Yep, or at least, when it's finally built in it's ppa
[20:54]  * popey tickles doctormo-other 
[20:55] <doctormo-other> Heya popey, how goes the super secrete techno thingy?
[20:55] <AlanBell> pleia2: think I am seeing Amanda tomorrow, I will mention it
[21:03] <popey> haha
[21:03] <popey> doctormo-other: I wish I knew!
[21:29] <bkerensa> jcastro: Chucktallica
[21:29] <bkerensa> :P
[21:44] <alourie> doctormo-other: I'd be happy to test new groundcontrol too :-)
[22:11] <cjohnston> pleia2: ping
[23:03] <doctormo-other> alourie: Great!
[23:04] <doctormo-other> alourie and duanedesign: please test from here: https://launchpad.net/~doctormo/+archive/groundcontrol
[23:04] <doctormo-other> It's an alpha, only available to oneiric
[23:05] <doctormo-other> I'm certain it should run, but packaging and deps have changed so part of the testing will be making sure it installs everything required.
[23:06] <duanedesign> awesome, thanks doctormo-other
[23:18] <czajkowski> *yawns*
[23:49] <pleia2> doctormo-other: sad to admit it, but I haven't upgraded to oneiric yet (too much traveling in october!), I'll test when I finally get there
[23:49] <pleia2> AlanBell: thanks, I don't really expect her to come in while on vacation so I'll see what jono says tomorrow too
[23:49] <pleia2> cjohnston: pong (busy day at work today!)
[23:49] <doctormo-other> pleia2: No problem :-) thanks for the positive thoughts.
[23:50] <AlanBell> pleia2: oh, guess I won't be seeing her tomorrow then :(
[23:50] <pleia2> AlanBell: ah, yeah, I got an out of office reply when I emailed
[23:51] <pleia2> cjohnston: thanks for looking at loco dir...team portal for me, hopefully he just logged in too quickly after readding himself to the team and it'll work now (now I just need to track him down :))
