[00:03] <ScottL> doctormon, i have a spec for the ubuntu studio artwork stuff that shnatsel talked about
[00:04] <ScottL> doctormon, why are you going to england?  are you originally from the UK?
[00:17] <popey> he owns a bowler hat, he must be
[00:20] <Pici> Yeah, the tea and hat are rather good indications
[00:31] <akgraner> ScottL, if you write about Studio and it hits the planet we usually include it - or you can blog and just drop us the link if you prefer
[00:33] <akgraner> ScottL, do you all have weekly Studio meetings?  If so can you drop us the link  -- we are including a section with the official flavors meetings now
[00:55] <ScottL> akgraner, we try to have weekly meeting with limited success, but i can start shooting you links though :)
[00:55] <akgraner> ScottL, Thanks a million! :-)
[02:22] <doctormon> AlanBell: Yeah will be great.
[02:29] <doctormon> ScottL: Sounds good, send a bell into #ubuntu-design esp. at the next meeting on wed
[02:30] <ScottL> doctormon, aye :)
[03:29] <head_victim> Anyone know a good contact for OpenStack in the Ubuntu/Canonical world?
[03:31] <mhall119> head_victim: jcastro perhaps
[03:33] <head_victim> mhall119: cheers, I'm about to send something to the juju list as well I think. I've had a request from an openstack user group in my country for someone to speak about it or juju from Canonical's perspective so trying to figure out where to start looking
[04:05] <mhall119> akgraner: thanks for the mention in UWN!
[06:05] <akgraner> jono you still around
[06:05] <jono> akgraner, I am
[06:05] <akgraner> I'm going to CC you in on a email thread b/c clearly I am not in a position to deal with it
[06:06] <akgraner> I I think if I add anything else to the conversation it will just make it worse
[06:08] <jono> no worries akgraner
[06:08] <jono> happy to help
[06:09] <jono> akgraner, btw, I have been making a point of posting UWN to our social networks, I hope it helps to get more readers and attract participants
[06:10] <akgraner> jono, it does!  IS had to tweak the servers to deal with increased traffic :-)  so thank you and everyone else who helps as well :-)
[06:10] <jono> :-)
[06:11] <jono> akgraner, do you have a wiki page I can point people to if they want to participate?

[13:14] <pangolin> What channel does someone join if they want to get help on making ubuntu work on a tablet?
[13:14] <nigelb> I don't think such a channel exists, there aer only mailing lists I believe.
[13:14] <pangolin> you happen to know which?
[13:15] <pangolin> someone asking about Ubuntu on  Motorola xoom tablet
[13:15] <nigelb> https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/Ubuntu-tablet
[13:15] <pangolin> you ROCK nigelb
[13:15] <pangolin> :)
[13:15] <nigelb> popey: ^ Any extra comments. :)
[13:16] <nigelb> bah, AlanBell ^
[13:16] <nigelb> Sorry, wrong Alan :)
[13:17] <nigelb> There seems to be https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-tablet as well.
[13:18] <pangolin> thank you much nigelb, that should get them started :)
[13:27] <popey> there is #ubuntu-tablet ☺
[13:28] <nigelb> I knew one of you'd know :)
[13:29] <pangolin> thanks popey
[13:45] <mhall119> pangolin: you might also want to join #ubuntu-tv and #ubuntu-phone
[13:45] <mhall119> there's a lot of overlap in concepts
[13:47] <pangolin> I'll let the user know. thanks.
[13:59] <popey> pangolin: might want to let the user know that pressing the 'contact team' button in launchpad isnt the best thing to do
[14:02] <akgraner> jcastro you around?  Do you have like 10 minutes I need to talk to you about an Ubuntu User Interview :-)
[15:27] <alourie> hello there
[16:00] <jono> dholbach, dpm meeting time?

[16:01] <dpm> strangely enough, it's not on my calendar this week
[16:01] <jono> weird
[16:01] <jono> dholbach, you here too?
[16:01] <jono> here he is :-)

[16:02] <dholbach_> do I need to wait for some other meetingology magic to happen? ;)
[16:03] <dholbach> perhaps I should start again for the notes?
[16:03] <jono> dholbach, yes please
[16:03] <dholbach> ok
[16:03] <dholbach>  - News Team: advertised news submission again, had a team call, published another update, more team organisation.
[16:03] <dholbach>  - Advisory Team: had a call, more team organisation, still problems with stats/reports infrastructure, but almost there.
[16:04] <dholbach>  - CC: Edubuntu Council reelection - also had a meeting with our first team catch-up: Edubuntu Council! It was pretty awesome!

[16:05] <jono> and all forms in Germany weird? :-)
[16:05] <czajkowski> lol
[16:06] <dholbach> jono, yes and very complicated, this one was really weird - try translating my job title into a different language and see how I struggled
[16:06] <jono> dholbach, fun fun fun
[16:06] <dholbach> but they said they can only pay me if I submit it, so I tried a bit harder ;-)
[16:06] <jono> dholbach, so what is the deal with the news team?
[16:07] <dholbach> jono, bkerensa and Alexander Vincent from AU (yes, we cover ALL timezones) both agreed to help out with compiling weekly dev news
[16:07] <jono> oh cool
[16:07] <dholbach> we had a call, we set up google docs to organise our news sources and to write up the updates together
[16:07] <jono> sounds great
[16:07] <dholbach> and we started putting together a list of people we want to interview
[16:07] <dholbach> we started slowly, but we're making progress
[16:07] <dholbach> it's good fun :)
[16:08] <jono> great stuff :-)
[16:08] <jono> any questions for dholbach ?
[16:08] <jono> I guess that is a no
[16:08]  * dholbach curtseys
[16:08] <jono> alrighty, dpm, you are up
[16:09] <czajkowski> thank you dholbach
[16:09]  * jono hi-fives dholbach
[16:09] <dholbach> :-))
[16:09] <dpm> ok, bear with me, I'm writing the notes right now
[16:09] <dholbach> haha
[16:09] <dpm> * Set up metrics for the app developer community growth items we're measuring this cycle
[16:10] <dpm> * Several talks with dholbach, the ARB and the MyApps team regarding statistics and making the ARB queue public
[16:10] <jono> dpm, slacker
[16:10] <jono> :-)
[16:10]  * dpm kicks err... hugs jono
[16:10] <jono> haha
[16:10] <cjohnston> jono still misspells my name. :(
[16:11] <dpm> * Helped the Italian translation team get the sources to translate a Canonical document ('Successful Ubuntu migration')
[16:11] <dpm> * Wrote a blog post with an overview of the Ubuntu App Developer communication resources
[16:11] <mhall119> cjohnston: he's just using the British spelling
[16:11] <mhall119> ;)
[16:11] <dpm> * Set up a new time for translations calls to accomodate more participation
[16:11] <jono> cjohnston, oops
[16:11] <jono> sorry
[16:12] <dpm> * Talked to the CC about adding the translations portal and app developer site feeds to Planet Ubuntu - the answer was yes
[16:12] <jono> cool
[16:13] <dpm> There might have been other things, but I think these were the main topics
[16:13] <jono> thanks dpm
[16:13] <jono> any questions for dpm?
[16:14] <dholbach> not from me
[16:14] <jono> cool
[16:14] <jono> alright
[16:14] <dholbach> just wanted to say that it's good fun to work with dpm together on the app review story
[16:14] <jono> no jorge today, he is on vacation
[16:14] <jono> cool :-)
[16:14] <jono> I will go next
[16:14]  * dpm hugs dholbach, ;)
[16:15] <jono> so, the caveat here is that I am full of cold, and feel like crap
[16:15] <czajkowski> awwww
[16:15] <jono> so get out your tiny violins please
[16:15] <jono> :-)
[16:15] <mhall119> better than the other way around?
[16:15] <czajkowski> jono: stop staying up so late!
[16:15] <jono> mhall119, LOL
[16:15] <jono> czajkowski, I wish I didn't need to
[16:15] <jono> ok
[16:15] <jono>  * Finalizing metrics with dpm for the app dev work.
[16:15] <dholbach> o/~   ~\o
[16:16] <jono>  * Finalizing metrics with dholbach and dpm for the ARB work.
[16:16] <jono> these metrics are going to be important for us to drive growth
[16:16] <jono> thanks to dholbach and dpm for focusing on this
[16:16] <jono>  * Continuing to review UDS content.
[16:16] <jono> following up with folks regarding this
[16:16] <jono> thanks czajkowski for sending the LC content
[16:16] <czajkowski> np
[16:17] <jono>  * Keynoted the Qt Dev Days 2011 event in San Francisco. Meeting with Nokia around Qt integration in Ubuntu.
[16:17] <jono> meeting seemed to go pretty well
[16:17] <jono> there was a lot of excitement about Ubuntu there
[16:17] <jono> I basically summarized the work going on between the two communities
[16:17] <jono> the meeting was good - David Pitkin (head of Consumer Apps) and I met them
[16:18] <jono> although we were a little outnumbered...there was like 8 Nokia people in the meeting :-)
[16:18] <jono>  * Followed up and started building a reqs document around Qt needs in Canonical.
[16:18] <jono> this was more about collating together our strategy
[16:18] <jono> strategically Canonical has an interest in Qt (e.g. the Unity 2D) work, but the reqs for Qt were not really articulated all that well so I kicked this off yesterday
[16:19] <jono>  * Continued hiring for the QA Community Coordinator role - zoning in on a candidate.
[16:19] <jono> I hope to get this finalized in the next few days
[16:19] <jono>  * Planning the rally in January in Budapest.
[16:20] <jono> Budapest is going to be *cold* in Jan
[16:20] <jono> but the smell of burning keyboards should keep us warm
[16:20] <jono>  * Discussed with the rest of the mgrs the rest of the fiscal year and budgeting.
[16:20] <jono>  * 12.04 plan on-going: the team is in good shape, burndown looking good.
[16:21] <jono> this is when things start ramping down, so I am pleased with the progress being made
[16:21] <jono>  * Helped Will Cooke to develop a strategy for the Ubuntu on TV community.
[16:21] <mhall119> \o/
[16:21] <jono> Will is a great person to be involved in this work
[16:21] <mhall119> lots of good discussion goinng on around that
[16:21] <mhall119> in #ubuntu-tv
[16:21] <jono> and he is passionate to work with the community
[16:21] <jono> yup
[16:21] <jono>  * Upgraded to 12.04.
[16:21] <mhall119> what's his nick?
[16:21] <jono> all seems fine so far

[16:21]  * mhall119 apologizes for hijacking

[16:24] <jono> hehe
[16:24] <jono> cool :-)
[16:24] <jono> alright, any further business?
[16:24] <dholbach> not from me
[16:25] <alourie> o/
[16:25] <jono> alourie, shoot

[16:26] <dholbach> jono, did the kernel patch work for you?
[16:26] <jono> dholbach, didn't try it yet
[16:26] <dholbach> ok
[16:27] <jono> thanks for the pointer though, dholbach
[16:27] <jono> #endmeeting
[16:27] <meetingology> Meeting ended Tue Dec  6 16:27:35 2011 UTC.
[16:27] <meetingology> Minutes:        http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-community-team/2011/ubuntu-community-team.2011-12-06-16.02.moin.txt
[16:27] <jono> thanks everyone!
[16:28]  * alourie needs to read backlog now
[17:06] <akgraner> This is cool and what a way to use Ubuntu - The Animals House of the Rising Sun Old School Computer Remix - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w68qZ8JvBds&sns=em
[17:52] <dholbach> alrightie - I call it a day - dinner with my sister and brother now - see you tomorrow :)
[19:49] <mhall119> dpm: ping
[19:59] <dpm> hey mhall119, I'm about to go, but if I can help, just let me know and I'll try to come back to you tomorrow or later on
[20:04] <mhall119> dpm: I saw wunderlist on the top 10 free downloads
[20:04] <mhall119> but it's not in software center for me
[20:04] <mhall119> nor even apt-get installable
[20:04] <mhall119> was wondering what the story was, it is only in 11.04 or 12.04 or something?
[20:07] <mhall119> nvm, I'm reading their blog now, and people in the comments are saying it's not available in 11.10
[20:08] <mhall119> wow, so an app that's only available in Precise made it to the top 10?
[20:09] <mhall119> or maybe it's only for < 11.10....
[20:09] <nigelb> wunderlist is a pretty aweomse app I've heard.
[20:19] <dpm> mhall119, it's only available in natty and maverick - https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applications/natty/wunderlist/. The top 10 downloads list was counted across releases
[20:19] <dpm> mhall119, the reason why it's not available I think it's because appcelerator is not available in Oneiric yet, but jpugh should be able to give you more details if you're interested
[20:20] <dpm> jpugh is zoopster on #ubuntu-app-devel
[20:38] <mhall119> yeah, john's in my loco, I know him
[20:38] <mhall119> thanks dpm
