[03:08] <Guest90916> hi guys, how to know the user we're using now in ubuntu? thanks
[05:05] <jaddi27> ManUb, Did you still need help with your question?
[05:07] <jaddi27> sagaci, I will write a testimonial for you soon. Just haven't had time to get it done yet
[05:08] <sagaci> no worries
[05:09] <sagaci> I don't usually read that ubuntu weekly news but I noticed there is a translation section with all the oneiric data.
[05:09] <jaddi27> I also apologise for not making the last meeting
[05:09] <jaddi27> oh, ok. I have never read it either. I might take a look
[05:09] <sagaci> that marathon weekend - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue244#Translation_Stats_Oneiric
[05:10] <jaddi27> you certainly did well that weekend
[05:10] <jaddi27> I hope to publish my graph of the translation status over the last few months
[05:11] <jaddi27> it starts around 100000 untranslated and goes down 
[05:16] <sagaci> also, just scuffled through https://translations.launchpad.net/translations/+products-with-translations for a few of the projects I use... nothing major did about 1000 strings on random small projects that seem half-notable
[05:16] <sagaci> it would be good to keep a wiki page of a log of what packages people complete
[05:17] <jaddi27> sounds good. I hadn't heard of that page before - I probably should look around more
[05:17] <sagaci> neither did I until yesterday
[05:17] <jaddi27> We should also change the enau translation guidelines link to point to our translations page, not the english uk one
[05:20] <sagaci> righteo then
[05:20] <jaddi27> that way we can make sure they see all of the guidelines and information we have written
[05:29] <sagaci> I'll just check in every couple of days to check for new random strings and try to get the rest down to ~0
[05:30] <sagaci> about 9500 left
[05:30] <jaddi27> you must have done a lot today then
[05:30] <jaddi27> at that rate i won't have any to do at all
[05:30] <sagaci> nah, there's a few packages that are showing up as incomplete, when they are actually done
[05:31] <jaddi27> right
 : I already find it, its whoami. thanks anyway :D
[06:00] <ManUb> but I still want to know if I typed $USER, what that's supposed to be mean?
[06:05] <jaddi27> I am fairly sure that is a variable that can be used in scripts to substitute the current username
[06:19] <sagaci> yep
[07:21] <head_victim> sagaci: how would you feel about having to create the last few news items on ubuntu.org.au?
[07:22] <sagaci> were they rolled back
[07:23] <head_victim> No, but we're toying with the idea of making the test upgrade live and replacing the old one instead of migrating so I'm just seeing if that would be a big problem before I say one way or the other (and you're the one who's created the new stuff so you're the person most affected)
[07:24] <sagaci> not really, I could just copy the text over but even then, it's not too much work to rewrite
[07:32] <head_victim> sagaci: sounds good
[07:32] <head_victim> I'll just copy and paste it the only thing we'll have to do is redo the links
[07:32] <head_victim> evening bejames 
[07:34] <sagaci> so the upgrade is happening now/tonight?
[07:37] <head_victim> Fingers crossed the new site will be live tonight :)
[07:37] <sagaci> ok then great
[07:44] <head_victim> bejames: the great website update cometh :)
[07:51] <head_victim> Apparently, that wasn't the VM :/
[08:13] <head_victim> For anyone interested - http://ubuntu.org.au/ looks a little different now
[08:40] <head_victim> DarrenS: good news, so far the only complaint is that we need more margins on the side
[08:41] <DarrenS> ok great
[08:41] <head_victim> It's tweeted, mailed and spread around IRC a little so fingers cross we'll get some more feedback over the next little while
[08:46] <sp4z> hi all
[08:46] <head_victim> Evening sp4z 
[08:54] <DarrenS> ok I'm going to shamble off for a feed, please feel free to highlight me re the site change
[08:54] <ManUb> hello mate
[08:54] <head_victim> DarrenS: no problems, thanks heaps for your help
[12:43] <sagaci> website looks good
[12:56] <sagaci_> head_victim: under solar system, the planet ubuntu-au feed points to a non-existent url
[20:52] <head_victim> DarrenS: as sagaci pointed out, the planet feed is still linked to the planet.ubuntu-au.org not planet.ubuntu.org.au I had a poke around the drupal management thing but couldn't find where to change it.
[22:03] <elky> head_victim, it'll be a menu
[22:07] <elky> head_victim, did you figure it out?
