| chilts | ibeardslee: yeah, I think I've earned it already - doesn't take long to get that one back :) | 02:49 |

| ibeardslee | people been following the Koha trademark fun and games? | 08:39 |
| ajmitch | oh yes, it's depressing reading | 09:06 |
| ibeardslee | it's not all doom at this point. I understand there is actually 3 months to object | 09:16 |
| ibeardslee | there is now a bit of cash in the 'defence fund' and I've heard of a couple of law firms offering their services pro-bono | 09:17 |
| ibeardslee | the NZOSS will do some rattling | 09:17 |
| chilts | morning | 18:47 |
| ibeardslee | morning | 18:48 |
| hads | morning | 19:00 |
| Atamira | mornin | 19:22 |
| sadsun | hello | 19:23 |
| ajmitch | morning | 19:28 |
| chilts | spot the odd one out | 19:36 |
| ajmitch | Atamira's missing a g? | 19:36 |
| Atamira | and sadsun is being different today | 19:36 |
| ajmitch | it's not really morning in .nl though :) | 19:37 |
| sadsun | I have to, u stole my "mornin'" :P | 19:37 |
| sadsun | feels like morning here in .nl ^^ | 19:38 |
| chilts | hmm, there are a few people in here I haven't met in real life | 19:38 |
| sadsun | u guys meet? cool | 19:38 |
| ajmitch | chilts: I've met you very briefly at LCA, iirc | 19:38 |
| chilts | was that at the drunken Thursday night thing? | 19:39 |
| chilts | sadsun: not formally, just in circles as and when it happens | 19:39 |
| ajmitch | I think it was the open day or something | 19:39 |
| sadsun | I see, still nice | 19:39 |
| chilts | hmm, wish I was going to LCA again this year | 19:40 |
| * ajmitch has flights booked for LCA | 19:40 | |
| chilts | I should get the company to pay for it - which shouldn't be hard because I own the company | 19:40 |
| chilts | I just can't afford it :D | 19:40 |
| ajmitch | I just need to pay for the LCA tickets | 19:40 |
| * ibeardslee didn't need to pay for LCA tickets | 19:41 | |
| ibeardslee | works is paying for flights + accom | 19:41 |
| chilts | nowai | 19:41 |
| chilts | ah well, good on yer :) | 19:41 |
| ajmitch | work is just paying for flights for me | 19:41 |
| ajmitch | better than nothing, for sure :) | 19:41 |
| * ibeardslee is speaking, ticket is 'free' | 19:42 | |
| ibeardslee | .. | 19:42 |
| ajmitch | what are you speaking on? | 19:42 |
| sadsun | what does LCA stand for? | 19:42 |
| ajmitch | linux.conf.au | 19:42 |
| * ibeardslee suddenly feels quite sick about the idea of speaking | 19:42 | |
| ibeardslee | ajmitch: The Catalyst Open Source Academy | 19:42 |
| ajmitch | it's an annual conference that attracts quite a few people | 19:42 |
| chilts | sadsum: so you're in .nl? what are you doing hanging out here then (not that we mind, everyone is welcome)? I'm just wondering the connection | 19:43 |
| ajmitch | ibeardslee: I'll have to come along then :) | 19:43 |
| sadsun | trying to get work in kiwiland | 19:43 |
| chilts | ah, gotchyer :) | 19:43 |
| chilts | ibeardslee: is that in January again? | 19:43 |
| ajmitch | jan 16-20 in ballarat | 19:44 |
| ajmitch | if you're talking about the LCA dates :) | 19:44 |
| * chilts was asking about the Catalyst Open Source Academy | 19:44 | |
| ibeardslee | chilts: yes | 19:50 |
| ibeardslee | weeks of the 9th and 16th | 19:50 |
| ibeardslee | so yes I'll be at LCA talking about the Academy during the 2nd week | 19:50 |
| ibeardslee | do you have a project you could mentor? | 19:51 |
| chilts | not really one big enough for the academy | 19:51 |
| chilts | but I'd be happy to help | 19:52 |
| ibeardslee | why not? 2-4 students working on a project, you guiding them through to make commits to it | 19:52 |
| chilts | most of my projects are pretty small ... wouldn't be enough work for 2-4 students | 19:52 |
| ibeardslee | got things that need to be started? new features planned? | 19:53 |
| chilts | ok, my last project took me about 8 hrs to do - it's now feature complete :) | 19:53 |
| chilts | seriously, I don't work on anything the size of Drupal or Koha | 19:54 |
| ibeardslee | doesn't need to be that size | 19:54 |
| chilts | I'm doing small libraries for NodeJS at the moment | 19:54 |
| chilts | so you've got people doing Koha, Mahara, Moodle? Drupal? any others? | 19:54 |
| ibeardslee | last year we had Grant's xml:sax and andrew's davical stuff | 19:55 |
| chilts | also remember that I work for myself, so I don't have a lot of spare time where I'm not trying to earn a living :) | 19:55 |
| ibeardslee | true | 19:55 |
| chilts | if I worked for a large organisisation who was happy to sponsor my time on something, I'd jump at the chance ... sorry :) | 19:56 |
| ibeardslee | fair enough .. worth a crack | 19:57 |
| chilts | I could always ask on the NodeJS mailing list if anyone wants something doing? | 19:57 |
| chilts | there is plenty of development going on around there at the moment | 19:58 |
| ibeardslee | sure .. we'd need a mentor to help work with the students though | 20:01 |
| chilts | yeah, no problems, that would definitely rule me out then :) | 20:03 |
| ibeardslee | They don't need to be 100% .. you could work from the corner of L4 during that week ;) | 20:08 |
| thumper | morning | 20:13 |
| ibeardslee | hey thumper .. I've been actively looking for more of the stuff coming for/from Ubuntu | 20:27 |
| ibeardslee | the UDS stuff is interesting | 20:27 |
| thumper | hi ibeardslee | 20:27 |
| olly_ | morning | 21:47 |
| olly_ | good to be back in NZ, and for more than 3 days this time | 21:48 |
| olly_ | top tip - if you have a returning residents visa, you count as "NZ and Australian passports" for immigration | 21:49 |
| olly_ | at least according to the immigration guy at the desk last night | 21:49 |
| * ajmitch should probably renew his passport soon | 21:53 | |
| ajmitch | who knows how long it'd take to process a passport renewal in late december/early january | 21:54 |
| ibeardslee | that reminds me .. | 21:56 |
| mwhudson | eep, conversation | 22:02 |
| mwhudson | mornign | 22:02 |
| mwhudson | olly_: you can tell this by the signs that say "NZ and Australian Passports <hr> Residents" can't you? at least at AKL | 22:04 |
| mwhudson | admittedly, when i've just escaped from a long haul flight is not tip-top time for observation | 22:04 |
| olly_ | mwhudson: they don't at WLG | 22:34 |
| mwhudson | ah right | 22:35 |
| mwhudson | yes, i've noticed that | 22:35 |
| olly_ | you | 22:35 |
| olly_ | 're probably right about AKL | 22:35 |
| olly_ | now you mention it, I do STR gthat | 22:35 |
| chilts | yeah, I was told that the time before last so the last time I went through NZ passports and it was pretty fast :) | 22:36 |
| chilts | nice to know since the signs don't usually tell you | 22:36 |
| olly_ | WLG seem quite anal at checking non-resident's documentation | 22:36 |
| olly_ | return tickets, etc | 22:36 |
| olly_ | i've only come in at AKL as a non-resident, and they weren't so bad, so either it has changed, or AKL has computer systems which relay the airline info or something | 22:37 |
| olly_ | guy in front seemed to be trying to show his return ticket on his phone, which the desk guy didn't like | 22:37 |
| olly_ | as if a paper print out is harder to forge | 22:38 |
