[08:01] good morning [09:48] 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. [10:07] bkerensa, thanks a bunch - let me take a look [10:07] bkerensa, hum, which bit is it? the problem is - I didn't clear out the doc after posting it on fridge and omg [10:08] ah, the customisable bug listings, right? [10:10] bkerensa, ok, I removed everything else (apart from the usual bits and pieces) and left your paragraph in [11:32] good morning [11:36] Aloha Amber =) [11:46] 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 [11:47] 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 === zkriesse is now known as Zerxes === Zach__ is now known as Zerxes [17:33] back from my trip :) [17:34] we pretty much need *all* summaries: https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en [17:35] hi Snicksie [17:36] hiya :) [17:36] are you familiar with the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter? [17:36] i guess so :p [17:36] well here's the last issue: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue242 [17:37] 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] okay :) [17:37] so we have this google doc here that just has titles and links: https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en [17:38] 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] try to be accurate, but perfection isn't required, they're all reviewed :) [17:38] okay, just 2-3 sentences shouldn't be too hard :) [17:38] great, thank you! [17:38] you can go through and just do ones that are interesting to you if you want, or pick a section, or whatever [17:40] 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) [17:41] Ahh, it was Thanksgiving-weekend right? [17:41] MrChrisDruif: yep [17:42] Btw, add those summaries on that docs page? [17:42] I was out of town all weekend, only internet access via my cell phone [17:42] MrChrisDruif: that's right! [17:43] I'll write an example one for the UDS Photo article [17:43] pleia2, thank - I'll let you know when I jump in... [17:46] I sent out the summary writers email and poked a few people in some other channels, hopefully it'll be enough [17:46] I can do review later [17:46] * pleia2 back to work [17:47] hm, difficult... [17:48] Snicksie: just do your best :) it seems easy but it certainly takes practice [17:48] I will pleia2 ;) [17:53] Second from blogosphere is done [17:55] 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) [17:58] Right pleia2 [18:01] Two done [18:09] pleia2; Something odd. Near the bottom === Five Gifts for Linux Lovers === but I think the link isn't the right one [18:13] I agree [18:15] fixed :) thanks for catching that [18:15] Anyhow, I've got to do some stuff for myself now. Good luck (might take a look again later) [18:16] thanks for your help! [18:16] You're welcome =) [18:16] Glad to help [18:16] awww, that list is a bit rubbish [18:18] 3/5 are pretty much US only [18:18] I do my best :( [18:18] you're welcome to add more articles [18:19] I do pull from .au and .uk sources too, just not a lot of news this week [18:19] yeah, it's not your fault, I was looking for gift ideas and just went :-( [18:20] =) [18:21] Maybe also add the Ubunyu TV article on omg? [18:21] MrChrisDruif: which one? [18:22] http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/11/ubuntu-smart-tv-discussions-begin-to-warm-up/ [18:22] I was looking for it already ;-) [18:22] sure [18:22] put it under blogosphere [18:22] Ubuntu-TV is a bit of my pet project ;-) [18:23] :) [18:23] Alright, it's been added...I'll also summaries it [18:23] I signed up for the tablet list, but am letting tv go for now (my tv runs linux already!) [18:23] thanks [18:24] * greg-g waves [18:25] hey greg-g! [18:25] https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AdKZelXU8Y2LZGNrcHRkYmhfODlkODNxNnRnZA&hl=en is what we're working on :) [18:25] hiya pleia2 [18:25] * greg-g looks [18:25] you will see an article title and a link, we need people to write the summary for said article [18:26] pleia2; it does? =D [18:26] Maybe you could share your experiences about it some day with me? [18:27] 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] greg-g; if you summaries an article, add your name to the bottom of the file [18:27] http://princessleia.com/images/journalpics/012011/samsung_tv_osl.jpg :) [18:27] make a summary* [18:28] * greg-g does his first one [18:28] I didn't know it ran linux when I bought it, but it was a pleasant surprise [18:29] Great, I'll have a more detailed look at that tv later. [18:29] * greg-g did one! [18:30] Great, full-name or nickname at the bottom [18:30] just did :) [18:32] sweet, someone fixed the CC license statement oddity at the bottom of the issue [18:34] yeah, I think we took your suggestion verbatim [18:35] that's always a good thing to do when it comes to CC licenses :P [18:35] :) [18:35] * greg-g isn't conceited, promise [18:36] for those playing at home: I work for Creative Commons :) [18:37] that reminds me, we should talk about jobs in that space at some point (not specifically at CC, but tech and freedom-related) [18:39] pleia2: sounds good [20:13] Sounds good indeed
