[04:14] <benonsoftware> Hello
[04:16] <k1l_> hello
[04:18] <benonsoftware> I am just wondering does anyone know if Matthew Craig has a IRC nick?
[04:19] <k1l_> i dont know who he is. but most people set their irc nick into their launchpad account. so maybe take a look there?
[04:21] <holstein> https://launchpad.net/~matthew-t-craig is all i see
[04:21] <benonsoftware> Yeah
[04:21] <benonsoftware> The reason is I would like to talk to him about Ubuntu Students (#ubuntu-students)
[04:22] <holstein> benonsoftware: email is there... you can ask
[04:22] <benonsoftware> I have but half of my emails go unanswered
[04:23] <holstein> if among the half that are answered is 'feel free and contact me at...' then you're good to go
[04:23] <benonsoftware> holstein: No not really
[04:24] <benonsoftware> I know he's IRC nick is cloaked
[04:24] <holstein> benonsoftware: ?.. a cloak is for the IP
[04:24] <benonsoftware> Yeah, on IRC
[04:25] <holstein> benonsoftware: there is no mention of an IRC nick on that page
[04:25] <ldunn> how do you know he's cloaked but not know his nick?
[04:25] <benonsoftware> https://launchpad.net/~matthew-t-craig/+participation He is on the persons cloak on freenode team
[04:26] <holstein> benonsoftware: ask in #freenode maybe
[04:26] <benonsoftware> What do I ask them?
[04:26] <k1l_> back in '08. i cant remember that long :)
[04:26] <benonsoftware> ;) Maybe any logs?
[04:26] <holstein> benonsoftware: maybe start with 'does anyone know matthew craig'... or 'im looking for ...'
[04:27] <benonsoftware> Ok
[04:28] <k1l_> what about the channel you want to talk to him. isnt he there?
[04:28] <benonsoftware> There is just Cap_J_L_Picard
[04:29] <benonsoftware> What he isn't a Ubuntu member
[04:29] <holstein> benonsoftware: that is Ewan Marshall
[04:29] <benonsoftware> ?
[04:30] <holstein> benonsoftware: Cap_J_L_Picard
[04:30] <benonsoftware> Ah
[04:32]  * benonsoftware thinks #freenode has ever heard of him
[04:32] <KindOne> ah, was about to point you here :P
[04:38] <benonsoftware> How do I apply to take a chanel over?
[04:39] <benonsoftware> I found he's nick (m-c) and he has not be online for the past 2 and a half years
[04:40] <holstein> not sure... you could try http://freenode.net/faq.shtml
[04:40] <benonsoftware> holstein: I need a IRC council member to approve it as it is there namespace
[04:40] <pangolin> benonsoftware: you will need to ask the Ubuntu IRC council to recover the channel from freenode. you can get the email from /msg ubottu appeals
[04:41] <pangolin> assuming it is a #ubuntu-* channel
[04:41] <benonsoftware> Yes, #ubuntu-students
[04:41] <pangolin> email the IRCC, explain the situation and see what they say.
[04:42] <OutOfControl> Ok
[04:49] <k1l_> what about him? he is on the access list too: https://launchpad.net/~paul-bartell
[04:53] <OutOfControl> Are there any IRCC members online at the moment?
[04:58] <k1l_> have you tried to contact peanutb? he does have founder rights too in that channel. if you can figure it out with him you woulnd need the bureaucracy way
[05:00] <OutOfControl> Ok, I'll find him now
[05:02] <OutOfControl> k1l_: Do you know what channels he is in?
[05:03] <k1l_> nope. just found hiim on access list and his computer/bnc is running
[05:04] <OutOfControl> Yep
[09:35] <tomtiger11> Why am i banned from #ubuntu ?
[10:15] <topyli> tomaw: join #ubuntu-ops and ask the ops
[10:15] <topyli> grr. sorry tomaw, tab fail with a user who already parted :\
[23:44] <benonsoftware> Has anyone heard anything else about #ubuntu-students?
[23:50] <pangolin> benonsoftware: you emailed the IRCC?
[23:51]  * benonsoftware couldn't yesterday and will now
[23:51] <pangolin> :) might have to wait till monday to get an answer from them.
[23:51] <benonsoftware> Do they have a meeting on Monday?
[23:52] <k1l> i would suggest to get peanutb or the craig guy on the desk.
[23:52] <pangolin> no, but seeing how it is the weekend they might not get to it until then
[23:52] <k1l> that would be the fastest and easiest way imho
[23:52] <benonsoftware> Yes
[23:53] <pangolin> well yeah if you can get in touch with peanutb that would be better.
[23:53] <pangolin> send him a PM
[23:53] <benonsoftware> pangolin: I have tried a number of times at different times
[23:54] <pangolin> ok well if you can't get in touch with any of the founders of the channel I suggest you email the ircc.
[23:54] <benonsoftware> What is there email?
[23:54] <pangolin> ubottu: appeals
[23:54] <pangolin> it is on that wiki page
