head_victimBerg: thanks for that, I'm just actually trying to track down who looks after the dns. I thought it was one person but they've referred me to another07:42
Bergyeah I was sniffing about the web site i cant use the forum either my user name dont work but thats another matter07:43
Bergit can wait07:43

sagacihead_victim: ping09:50
head_victimsagaci: pong09:55
Bergyou could have a bot do that for you save typing09:58
head_victimBerg: it's a common way of seeing if someone is at their keyboard, normally sagaci would have responded and asked a question or something by now :)09:58
sagaciI don't know if you've been watching -translators but that's a glitch at the moment to do with the templates page not updating09:58
gorillaBerg: Nah, response times would be too quick :-P09:58
sagacithere's09:59
head_victimsagaci: yeah I was looking at that09:59
sagacibut the translations are still going through, which is the main thing09:59
head_victimsagaci: I had noticed that there were some awesome changes in 12.04 though 09:59
head_victimThe "color" management in system settings is now "colour" and stuff like that09:59
head_victimIt's looking good tbh09:59
sagacialso tried getting someone from u-uk to check the xchat for changes and it seems that it hasn't gone through for them either10:00
head_victimAh so the xchat stuff was meant to but didn't?10:00
sagacibecause precise can't change locale at the moment, at least from the gui10:00
sagaciwell yeah, that work you did hasn't been caught in ubuntu, it seems10:00
head_victimI thought it was only affecting packages translated in launchpad10:00
sagaciyeah, different issue10:01
sagaciI'm just talking about xchat translations in ubuntu, not to do with the translation glitch in lp10:01
head_victimAh no worries, I'd mashed the 2 issues10:02
sagaciyeah so I'll file a bug about it soon10:02
head_victimBerg: sagaci is our resident localisation expert :) He's the person that made the americanisms go away from enAU :D10:04
sagaciI just hope the other 44% is in pretty good shape10:04
Bergthats nice ..if i knew what your said it would be better10:04
Berg:)10:04
* Berg is a old guy and not good at geek stuff10:05
head_victimBerg: when you set your locale to English (Australia) he's the bloke who's made most of it the right spelling. For example you will see "colour" instead of "color", etc.10:05
Bergha this is good10:05
head_victimIt's very good :)10:06
head_victimHe's leading the way when it comes to making sure they're all right, there are others contributing as well though.10:06
BergI found when i updated to 11.04 i had to change a lot of the defaults so i could have my old desktop10:07
sagacithe next ubuntu global jam is around 2nd March, I doubt we'll be having a translation jam10:07
sagaci2nd-5th March 201210:08
BergIt seems odd that one would have to translate an english OS into English 10:12
head_victimBerg: didn't make sense to me either. Apparently the standard is to use US "English" for everything worldwide though.10:14
sagacinotice most en_US errors now, so it's rewarding to just check over the strings and change the ones we need to10:16
BergWell its good to see you raise the flag on correct spellings10:16
sagaciand finding some typos along the way, such as authentification10:18
head_victimAwwww 12.04 dpkg errors10:27
sagaciwine won't install on 12.04 at the moment10:28
head_victimI can't install anything10:29
head_victimI tried to update it got half way through and now whinges about unmet dependencies no matter what I do it's still there10:29
sagacihmm that's weird10:32
sagacibut not really for a dev release10:33
head_victimMeh I'll wait a day or two and let the mirror catch up :D10:33
sagacii'll try my precise VM10:37
head_victimI was actually going to try and play with skype-wrapper and see if it works as well as it's meant to10:41
sagacijaddi27: probably not a good idea to run your script on the site, due to a seemingly server glitch12:33
sagacithus stats not updating12:34
Terry_morning all :)22:30
Terry_\||||22:32
* Terry_ 's high five is left hanging22:33
