bkerensa | dholbach: I added a tidbit to the next issue if you wanna have a look and tell me whether that is what you/we are looking for if not I can edit it out. | 09:48 |
dholbach | bkerensa, thanks a bunch - let me take a look | 10:07 |
dholbach | bkerensa, hum, which bit is it? the problem is - I didn't clear out the doc after posting it on fridge and omg | 10:07 |
dholbach | ah, the customisable bug listings, right? | 10:08 |
dholbach | bkerensa, ok, I removed everything else (apart from the usual bits and pieces) and left your paragraph in | 10:10 |
akgraner | good morning | 11:32 |
MrChrisDruif | Aloha Amber =) | 11:36 |
akgraner | I didn't have a chance to work on UWN this weekend but I started my day early so I would have time after lunch to write summaries | 11:46 |
akgraner | if anyone else feels like jumping in and writing please do so :-) I'll clean it up - so don't sweat the small stuff - thanks in advance | 11:47 |

pleia2 | back from my trip :) | 17:33 |
pleia2 | we pretty much need *all* summaries: https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en | 17:34 |
pleia2 | hi Snicksie | 17:35 |
Snicksie | hiya :) | 17:36 |
pleia2 | are you familiar with the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter? | 17:36 |
Snicksie | i guess so :p | 17:36 |
pleia2 | well here's the last issue: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue242 | 17:36 |
pleia2 | essentially what we do at this point in the week (well, we like to do it on saturday!) is write all those summaries you see | 17:37 |
Snicksie | okay :) | 17:37 |
pleia2 | so we have this google doc here that just has titles and links: https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en | 17:37 |
pleia2 | what we need folks to do is visit the URL, read the article and then write 2-3 sentence description about what the article talks about | 17:38 |
pleia2 | try to be accurate, but perfection isn't required, they're all reviewed :) | 17:38 |
Snicksie | okay, just 2-3 sentences shouldn't be too hard :) | 17:38 |
pleia2 | great, thank you! | 17:38 |
pleia2 | you can go through and just do ones that are interesting to you if you want, or pick a section, or whatever | 17:38 |
akgraner | pleia2, yep - but I'll be back to back for 3 hours working on summaries when I finish my day (which is around noon your time) | 17:40 |
MrChrisDruif | Ahh, it was Thanksgiving-weekend right? | 17:41 |
pleia2 | MrChrisDruif: yep | 17:41 |
MrChrisDruif | Btw, add those summaries on that docs page? | 17:42 |
pleia2 | I was out of town all weekend, only internet access via my cell phone | 17:42 |
pleia2 | MrChrisDruif: that's right! | 17:42 |
pleia2 | I'll write an example one for the UDS Photo article | 17:43 |
akgraner | pleia2, thank - I'll let you know when I jump in... | 17:43 |
pleia2 | I sent out the summary writers email and poked a few people in some other channels, hopefully it'll be enough | 17:46 |
pleia2 | I can do review later | 17:46 |
* pleia2 back to work | 17:46 | |
Snicksie | hm, difficult... | 17:47 |
pleia2 | Snicksie: just do your best :) it seems easy but it certainly takes practice | 17:48 |
Snicksie | I will pleia2 ;) | 17:48 |
MrChrisDruif | Second from blogosphere is done | 17:53 |
pleia2 | oh, and at the bottom of the document there is a place where we list volunteers, be sure to add yourself there so we can add your name to the credits :) (nicknames are ok) | 17:55 |
MrChrisDruif | Right pleia2 | 17:58 |
MrChrisDruif | Two done | 18:01 |
MrChrisDruif | pleia2; Something odd. Near the bottom === Five Gifts for Linux Lovers === but I think the link isn't the right one | 18:09 |
Myrtti | I agree | 18:13 |
pleia2 | fixed :) thanks for catching that | 18:15 |
MrChrisDruif | Anyhow, I've got to do some stuff for myself now. Good luck (might take a look again later) | 18:15 |
pleia2 | thanks for your help! | 18:16 |
MrChrisDruif | You're welcome =) | 18:16 |
MrChrisDruif | Glad to help | 18:16 |
Myrtti | awww, that list is a bit rubbish | 18:16 |
Myrtti | 3/5 are pretty much US only | 18:18 |
pleia2 | I do my best :( | 18:18 |
pleia2 | you're welcome to add more articles | 18:18 |
pleia2 | I do pull from .au and .uk sources too, just not a lot of news this week | 18:19 |
Myrtti | yeah, it's not your fault, I was looking for gift ideas and just went :-( | 18:19 |
MrChrisDruif | =) | 18:20 |
MrChrisDruif | Maybe also add the Ubunyu TV article on omg? | 18:21 |
pleia2 | MrChrisDruif: which one? | 18:21 |
MrChrisDruif | http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/11/ubuntu-smart-tv-discussions-begin-to-warm-up/ | 18:22 |
MrChrisDruif | I was looking for it already ;-) | 18:22 |
pleia2 | sure | 18:22 |
pleia2 | put it under blogosphere | 18:22 |
MrChrisDruif | Ubuntu-TV is a bit of my pet project ;-) | 18:22 |
pleia2 | :) | 18:23 |
MrChrisDruif | Alright, it's been added...I'll also summaries it | 18:23 |
pleia2 | I signed up for the tablet list, but am letting tv go for now (my tv runs linux already!) | 18:23 |
pleia2 | thanks | 18:23 |
* greg-g waves | 18:24 | |
pleia2 | hey greg-g! | 18:25 |
pleia2 | https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en is what we're working on :) | 18:25 |
greg-g | hiya pleia2 | 18:25 |
* greg-g looks | 18:25 | |
pleia2 | you will see an article title and a link, we need people to write the summary for said article | 18:25 |
MrChrisDruif | pleia2; it does? =D | 18:26 |
MrChrisDruif | Maybe you could share your experiences about it some day with me? | 18:26 |
pleia2 | MrChrisDruif: it's a higher end Samsung, it has a whole OS so it can do built-in netflix, hulu and more, runs an old redhat kernel and busybox, you can even view the GPL through the television interface :) | 18:27 |
MrChrisDruif | greg-g; if you summaries an article, add your name to the bottom of the file | 18:27 |
pleia2 | http://princessleia.com/images/journalpics/012011/samsung_tv_osl.jpg :) | 18:27 |
MrChrisDruif | make a summary* | 18:27 |
* greg-g does his first one | 18:28 | |
pleia2 | I didn't know it ran linux when I bought it, but it was a pleasant surprise | 18:28 |
MrChrisDruif | Great, I'll have a more detailed look at that tv later. | 18:29 |
* greg-g did one! | 18:29 | |
MrChrisDruif | Great, full-name or nickname at the bottom | 18:30 |
greg-g | just did :) | 18:30 |
greg-g | sweet, someone fixed the CC license statement oddity at the bottom of the issue | 18:32 |
pleia2 | yeah, I think we took your suggestion verbatim | 18:34 |
greg-g | that's always a good thing to do when it comes to CC licenses :P | 18:35 |
pleia2 | :) | 18:35 |
* greg-g isn't conceited, promise | 18:35 | |
greg-g | for those playing at home: I work for Creative Commons :) | 18:36 |
pleia2 | that reminds me, we should talk about jobs in that space at some point (not specifically at CC, but tech and freedom-related) | 18:37 |
greg-g | pleia2: sounds good | 18:39 |
MrChrisDruif | Sounds good indeed | 20:13 |
