| mhall119 | pleia2: talk to cjohnston about that, but we're going to try and roll all of uds.u.c into the same Django instance as summit.u.c | 04:19 |
|---|---|---|
| jcastro | mhall119: you have uds.u.c wordpress access too | 05:20 |
| jcastro | I checked it today | 05:20 |
| czajkowski | aloha | 07:48 |
| dholbach | good morning | 08:19 |
| * czajkowski hugs dholbach | 08:54 | |
| nigelb | Hey dholbach, jono :) | 08:55 |
| dholbach | hey nigelb, hey jono | 08:56 |
| * dholbach hugs czajkowski | 08:56 | |
| jono | hey nigelb, dholbach | 08:59 |
| nigelb | Is anyone else seeing slowness in logging into the wiki? | 09:00 |
| mainerror | Morning. | 11:22 |
| mainerror | I was so excited about the next UDS location yesterday and when I found out where it was going to be I was sad. :( | 11:23 |
| popey | why? | 11:24 |
| mainerror | Well I was hoping that it is going to be somewhere in Europe again. | 11:25 |
| mainerror | I'm not sure if I'll be able to afford the flight to Oakland. | 11:25 |
| JanC | mainerror: too bad, but it's probably going to be in Europe again in the fall | 11:26 |
| mainerror | We'll see. With some luck I can find a way to get there. | 11:29 |
| mainerror | Sneak on board of a plane somehow. :P | 11:31 |
| popey | JanC: dont think so | 11:32 |
| JanC | popey: not? | 11:32 |
| popey | probably back in florida | 11:32 |
| mainerror | :( | 11:36 |
| mainerror | Actually more like this :*( | 11:36 |
| nigelb | popey: No more europe? :( | 11:47 |
| popey | dunno | 11:50 |
| popey | europe is expensive | 11:50 |
| nigelb | Europe is easier for a visa. | 11:50 |
| popey | bummer | 11:50 |
| AlanBell | taipei maybe | 11:50 |
| JanC | Europe is a lot less expensive for many of us ;) | 11:50 |
| popey | yay, JanC is going to pay for the venue | 11:51 |
| JanC | venues are much cheaper in the US? | 11:51 |
| popey | much | 11:51 |
| popey | like half the price | 11:51 |
| JanC | unless you can find something like a university to provide the location, I suppose... (but that would be difficult at the times of the year UDS is held) | 11:54 |
| nigelb | popey: wow. Did not know that. | 11:56 |
| JanC | maybe we can make it a camping-UDS instead (somewhat like CCCamp ;) ) | 11:56 |
| nigelb | I guess with UDS becoming overall more expensive, this was to be seen. | 11:57 |
| popey | we are never going to please everyone | 11:57 |
| AlanBell | there are camping based events, UDS isn't really one of them :) | 11:57 |
| AlanBell | but a europe based camping ubucon sounds an interesting idea, get on it JanC :) | 11:58 |
| nigelb | I guess, if I decide to go, I'll have to bite it and apply for visa again. | 11:58 |
| nigelb | s/go/apply for sponsorship to go/ | 11:58 |
| jussi | I still wish they would put UDS here: http://www.scandichotels.com/Hotels/Countries/Finland/Helsinki/Hotels/Scandic-Grand-Marina/ | 12:08 |
| jussi | then I could go without sponsorship :D | 12:08 |
| nigelb | yeah, I kinda feel jealous about cjohnston and mhall119 :) | 12:08 |
| JanC | jussi: isn't Scandinavia even more expensive than the rest of Europe? ;) | 12:09 |
| jussi | and given there are direct flights to Helsinki from most parts of the world, including the US and asia... | 12:09 |
| mainerror | London would be great but I guess London is also quite expensive. | 12:10 |
| mainerror | I have no idea though. | 12:10 |
| JanC | but prices in Southern Europe shouldn't be that high? | 12:10 |
| nigelb | I wish we'd do something like Singapore or Hong Kong. | 12:10 |
| jussi | JanC: southern and eastern europe.... | 12:10 |
| jussi | hence prague, budapest, sevilla, barcelona etc | 12:10 |
| mainerror | Bucharest. I have some good connections over there. | 12:11 |
| jussi | I think one of the issues is the "day money" | 12:11 |
| JanC | they should think about Greece or Portugal maybe | 12:11 |
| jussi | JanC: hehe | 12:11 |
| duanedesign | o/ morning friends | 12:12 |
| popey | its not just the cost | 12:12 |
| popey | there's the service too | 12:12 |
| JanC | I'm not joking, the fall edition would be just after the summer season, so hotels will be empty by then... | 12:12 |
| JanC | especially in greece | 12:12 |
| mainerror | popey: What exactly do you mean? | 12:12 |
| popey | What do you think I mean when I say 'service' ☺ | 12:13 |
| popey | the USA has service nailed | 12:13 |
| JanC | in what way? | 12:14 |
| popey | friendlyness, efficiency | 12:14 |
| popey | IMHO | 12:14 |
| mainerror | Others don't? | 12:15 |
| popey | Yup. IMO | 12:15 |
| popey | I include the UK in the 'others dont' btw | 12:15 |
| mainerror | Well I'm just gonna say I disagree. | 12:16 |
| popey | have you travelled much? | 12:17 |
| JanC | what I remember from NYC almost 20 years ago, my experiences were rather mixed there in that respect... ;) | 12:18 |
| popey | NYC is not a UDS venue | 12:18 |
| JanC | but then again, some people say NYC is not America ;) | 12:18 |
| AlanBell | NYC and florida near disney are not the same at all | 12:18 |
| popey | I don't want to get into a xenophobic argument about which country is best, just that in my experience it seems USA do this quite well. | 12:19 |
| JanC | well, I have no experience with any UDS in the US, so I really can't compare, just wondering what makes them more friendly/efficient... ☺ | 12:27 |
| popey | dunno, it's a cultural thing | 12:37 |
| Pendulum | JanC: some of it in hotels and restaurants would be attempts to keep their jobs | 12:48 |
| Pendulum | one of my friends was a waitress for a major US restaurant chain and 3 complaints and you were out (even if a complaint was something you had no control over | 12:49 |
| Pendulum | In my experience service varies widely around the US | 12:51 |
| Pendulum | Orlando area caters to tourists so has extra good service | 12:52 |
| Pendulum | generally I've had good luck in San Francisco (not been to Oakland more than to drive through it) | 12:52 |
| Pendulum | in New York it's hit or miss, especially as a tourist, because plenty of places really cater to locals and don't want tourists. Places that do want tourists are often crowded which does lower levels of service. | 12:53 |
| popey | I was walking through Times Square once and someone walked up to me and asked for directions ☺ | 12:56 |
| akgraner | popey, woo themes rock! | 13:46 |
| akgraner | Oh the choices :-) | 13:47 |
| popey | yeah :D | 13:51 |
| JanC | popey: wait until you get Japanese tourists, speaking something I only recognized as something remotely resembling French after trying to understand them for more than a minute, ask you for directions in the maze that some parts of the inner city of Bruges are ;) | 13:52 |
| JanC | (fortunately they had a Japanese city guide with photographs & a map on which I could point where they were and where they had to end up—but I'm pretty sure they had to ask more times to get there) | 13:54 |
| jcastro | mhall119: around? | 15:23 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: I am | 15:27 |
| jcastro | ok I'm going to test sponsorship | 15:28 |
| jcastro | http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-q/sponsorship/ | 15:29 |
| jcastro | can you submit one too? | 15:29 |
| jcastro | I just submit a few tests | 15:29 |
| jcastro | then delete them | 15:29 |
| jcastro | then we can give bacon thumbs up | 15:29 |
| mhall119 | apply myself, or suggest someone? | 15:29 |
| jcastro | ooh | 15:29 |
| jcastro | suggest someone | 15:29 |
| jcastro | I'll apply normal | 15:29 |
| jcastro | Forbidden (403) | 15:30 |
| jcastro | CSRF verification failed. Request aborted. | 15:30 |
| jcastro | ruh roh | 15:30 |
| mhall119 | ack! 403 error | 15:30 |
| mhall119 | django 1.3 | 15:31 |
| jcastro | is it cjohnston's fault? | 15:32 |
| cjohnston | no | 15:33 |
| mhall119 | cjohnston: let me get a fix for it, give me 10 minutes | 15:34 |
| cjohnston | I won't be home for a few hours | 15:35 |
| mhall119 | django 1.3 added the requirement to pass a CSRF token around in all forms, so we need to update our templates | 15:35 |
| cjohnston | while your at it, code in user roles | 15:35 |
| mhall119 | cjohnston: no | 15:35 |
| jcastro | hey, thanks everyone who copy edited uds.ubuntu.com with the right info | 15:46 |
| jcastro | HIGH FIVE | 15:46 |
| jcastro | mhall119: any progress? | 16:01 |
| jcastro | I get the feeling jono wants to announce sponsorships today | 16:01 |
| jono | jcastro, nope | 16:02 |
| jono | jcastro, I am happy to wait | 16:02 |

| jono | no worries :-) | 16:21 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: jono: almost done, I'm writing test cases to make sure we catch this if it's ever a problem again | 16:22 |
| jcastro | I love how you roll dude | 16:23 |
| jono | thanks mhall119 | 16:26 |

| jono | heh, yup | 16:34 |
| cprofitt | jono: have you spoken to or heard from randall recently? | 16:35 |

| jono | I saw he blogged yesterday | 16:38 |
| cprofitt | yeah -- I saw the blog post too... made me think my email mght gave gone spam filter... | 16:39 |
| cprofitt | jono: you want to discuss community days? | 16:40 |
| cprofitt | i gotta say one hand typing is not fun. | 16:40 |
| jono | cprofitt, at some point | 16:40 |
| jono | next year | 16:40 |
| cprofitt | sounds good -- just let me know. | 16:41 |
| mhall119 | cjohnston: nigelb: are one of you around to review a quick patch to the summit production branch? | 16:56 |
| cprofitt | mhall119: when i get back to two hands i will try to work with you guys on summit again -- sorry for the delay on my end | 16:58 |
| mhall119 | cprofitt: no worries, I just need to get a patch out today | 16:58 |
| cprofitt | lunch time -- bbl | 17:09 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: I've requested the the fix be deployed, once IS has that done we'll test it again | 17:26 |
| jcastro | rock | 17:26 |
| mhall119 | I fixed the sponsorship, suggestion, and non-launchpad suggestion forms | 17:27 |
| mhall119 | there may be more, I'll work on more extensive tests later | 17:27 |
| jcastro | oh | 17:51 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: please try again, I was able to submit one | 17:51 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: something's broken with sponsorship suggestions, a permission error on the server, trying to resolve it now | 17:55 |
| dholbach | alright my friends - I call it a day - see you all tomorrow! | 17:58 |
| jcastro | trying now mhall119 | 17:58 |
| jcastro | dholbach: cya! | 17:58 |
| jcastro | ok it submitted | 17:59 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: looks like launchpadlib didn't have write access to it's cache directory on the server, fixing now | 18:00 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: ok, submitted a suggestion via launchpad name, that's working now | 18:01 |
| jcastro | \o/ | 18:01 |
| jcastro | mhall119: ok so the only thing needed is a deadline date put on the page with the "request sponsorship" button | 18:02 |
| jcastro | but jono will tell us when that is | 18:02 |
| mhall119 | ok | 18:04 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: non-launchpad suggestions work too | 18:07 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: do you want to delete these sponsorship record, or do you want me to? | 18:07 |
| jcastro | go ahead | 18:09 |
| jcastro | I usually leave a joke Daniel record around for track leads to vote on | 18:09 |
| * jcastro whistles | 18:09 | |
| jcastro | special diet needs: MEAT | 18:09 |
| jcastro | etc. | 18:09 |
| popey | something on uds.ubuntu.com is killing my browser | 18:09 |
| popey | Script: http://uds.ubuntu.com/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.6.1:17 | 18:10 |
| mhall119 | popey: your browser can't handle jquery? | 18:10 |
| popey | it was fine earlier, my browser froze up and switched to that tab randomly | 18:11 |
| * popey suspects a memory leak | 18:11 | |
| mhall119 | is it the main page of uds.u.c? | 18:11 |
| popey | yes | 18:12 |
| mhall119 | if so, it's likely the jquery slide-show | 18:12 |
| popey | i have had it open for 3 hours | 18:12 |
| mhall119 | ah, that might make a difference, yeah | 18:12 |
| popey | i have had lots of things open for 3 hours ☺ | 18:12 |
| mhall119 | me too, for days even, just not uds.u.c | 18:13 |
| popey | heh | 18:13 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: are we doing a call today? | 18:24 |
| jcastro | sure | 18:25 |
| jcastro | I am running way late on lunch though | 18:25 |
| jcastro | so I would like to go get some | 18:25 |
| jcastro | what's your timeline? | 18:25 |
| mhall119 | I'm technically off the rest of today | 18:26 |
| mhall119 | but I have to have a call with someone in ISD too, I'll see if he's available | 18:26 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: okay, I'm ready whenever you are | 18:51 |
| jcastro | I have to step out for a minute | 18:51 |
| jcastro | argh | 18:51 |
| jcastro | where is my day going | 18:51 |
| jcastro | can you call my phone in like 5 minutes? | 18:52 |
| mhall119 | sure, PM me the number | 18:52 |
| jcastro | 248-677-1006 | 18:53 |
| jcastro | the wonders of a google voice # | 18:53 |
| jcastro | :) | 18:53 |
| mhall119 | ok, 5 minutes, go! | 18:53 |
| popey | 28 | 18:56 |
| popey | bah! | 18:56 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: ring ring | 19:03 |
| mhall119 | no answer, he doesn't love me anymore :( | 19:04 |
| MrChrisDruif | Aloha popey; it should arrive tomorrow =D | 19:33 |
| bkerensa | Happy Holidays All! | 19:37 |
| MrChrisDruif | Aloha bkerensa; thanks. You too! | 19:37 |
| popey | yay | 20:19 |
| popey | jcastro: you use ubuntu 64-bit and google talk? | 20:19 |
| jcastro | yessir | 20:20 |
| popey | i cant get it installed | 20:20 |
| popey | wants lib32v4l-0 | 20:20 |
| jcastro | what's the problem? | 20:20 |
| jcastro | precise? | 20:20 |
| popey | ya | 20:20 |
| jcastro | yeah I think that's broken | 20:20 |
| jcastro | for new installs | 20:20 |
| jcastro | but not upgrades | 20:20 |
| jcastro | I am pretty sure the v4l thing is kernel related | 20:20 |
| popey | balls | 20:20 |
| popey | i think its a dependancy problem | 20:21 |
| jcastro | there's a workaround iirc | 20:21 |
| popey | google talk plugin wants a 32-bit lib | 20:21 |
| popey | for a 64-bit deb this seems silly | 20:21 |
| jcastro | but I don't know who to ask | 20:21 |
| jcastro | I don't know who would know, but I would guess maybe slangasek? | 20:21 |
| jcastro | he's multiarch hero | 20:21 |
| jcastro | and the head of my order, he'll know what to do </gandalf> | 20:22 |
| popey | ☺ | 20:22 |
| popey | one year till hobbit | 20:22 |
| popey | sheesh | 20:22 |
| jcastro | it looks so great | 20:22 |
| MrChrisDruif | gtalk also works for me on ubuntu 64 (oneiric) | 20:22 |
| jcastro | I am glad they didn't show anything | 20:22 |
| jcastro | just the characters | 20:22 |
| jcastro | I didn't want to see smaug, or the armies, or any of that | 20:22 |
| jcastro | just a tease of dialog, which was enough to make me basically cry with joy. | 20:23 |
| jcastro | MrChrisDruif: yeah it's a Precise problem | 20:23 |
| MrChrisDruif | Nice LOTR reference jcastro ;-) | 20:23 |
| popey | hmm, wonder if my laptop works | 20:23 |
| popey | also 12.04 64-bit | 20:23 |
| popey | but upgraded only today | 20:23 |
| mhall119 | working on business card concepts, what do you guys think? http://people.ubuntu.com/~mhall119/business_card.png | 21:00 |
| MrChrisDruif | mhall119; what are YOUR points of worry? | 21:02 |
| MrChrisDruif | Or just asking for general feedback? | 21:02 |
| mhall119 | MrChrisDruif: general feedback | 21:03 |
| mhall119 | MrChrisDruif: my concern is that it's too busy | 21:03 |
| mhall119 | or doesn't get the information across | 21:03 |
| MrChrisDruif | What should it reflect? What kind of info do you want to give with that business card? | 21:03 |
| mhall119 | basically as much identity and contact information as I can, while still looking nice | 21:04 |
| AlanBell | yeah, too busy | 21:04 |
| jcastro | mhall119: too busy | 21:04 |
| MrChrisDruif | What are does random numbers in the top and bottom bar? | 21:04 |
| jcastro | mhall119: there's an ubuntu template isn't there? | 21:04 |
| mhall119 | top is gpg fingerprint, bottom is ssh fingerprint | 21:04 |
| MrChrisDruif | And besides being (too) busy, I had to think twice on how to get information from it | 21:05 |
| AlanBell | ah, I kind of get the point now, you are mhall119 at all of those online services | 21:06 |
| MrChrisDruif | Also, remember the people your giving it to will not know about gpg or ssh (just expect them NOT to, you might be surprised by the one or two that do) | 21:06 |
| MrChrisDruif | AlanBell; yes, I told you I had to think twice on how to get information from it? ;-) | 21:07 |
| mhall119 | AlanBell: yeah, and mhall119@ both gmail.com and ubuntu.com | 21:07 |
| AlanBell | I knew what they were, but I would have no idea what I should do with that information | 21:07 |
| MrChrisDruif | That would be my second point about them | 21:07 |
| jcastro | mhall119: just make an orange/ubuntu version of the Canonical cards | 21:08 |
| jcastro | https://plus.google.com/photos/116015965439782966698/albums/5351476513609664321/5689062364098511506 | 21:08 |
| MrChrisDruif | Also, the size I looked at it at first was much larger then an actual business card would be. When I scaled it down to about the right size, those numbers in the top and bottom bar got hard to read ;-) | 21:09 |
| cjohnston | thats nice jcastro | 21:09 |
| jcastro | :) | 21:09 |
| MrChrisDruif | Indeed jcastro ;-) | 21:10 |
| AlanBell | jcastro: yes, your business card does convey a professional image | 21:10 |
| MrChrisDruif | Btw, being mysterious might also be a good idea. I'm thinking about using a qr-code on my future business cards | 21:11 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: I wanted to be unique | 21:11 |
| cjohnston | ahh | 21:11 |
| jcastro | yeah I want a QR code on the back | 21:11 |
| jcastro | I've been debating personal cards in this style: http://about.me/jorge.castro | 21:12 |
| * MrChrisDruif suddenly got a pretty clear picture in his head for his business cards! =P | 21:12 | |
| cjohnston | that one would be cool jcastro | 21:12 |
| jcastro | <--- off irc to get work done | 21:13 |
| jcastro | mhall119: see ya on the flip side! | 21:13 |
| MrChrisDruif | Got a link to the right post by accident jcastro ? I'm not seeing post on that link... | 21:13 |
| jcastro | and if I don't see ya'll tomorrow I'll be on a boat all next week | 21:13 |
| cjohnston | i do quite like mine: http://ubuntuone.com/0Z1zOUYcWVLHnKlNjzMkyc | 21:13 |
| MrChrisDruif | cjohnston; why skype? | 21:14 |
| cjohnston | why not? | 21:14 |
| MrChrisDruif | Ekiga? | 21:14 |
| cjohnston | I was skyping with a bunch of people often | 21:14 |
| * MrChrisDruif has been listening to RMS again ^_^ | 21:15 | |
| cjohnston | MrChrisDruif: i dont know anyone who uses ekiga | 21:15 |
| MrChrisDruif | I...recently ^_^ | 21:15 |
| cjohnston | i got the business card shortly after the new design | 21:16 |
| MrChrisDruif | OOTB does Skype do a better job...but just configuring a bit and it *should* work now with Ekiga | 21:16 |
| mhall119 | jcastro: have fun | 21:17 |
| AlanBell | https://live.gnome.org/Accessibility/Hackfests/ATK2012 would be nice for Canonical to send someone to that | 21:17 |
| mhall119 | AlanBell: MrChrisDruif: is this better? file:///home/mhall/projects/Ubuntu/business_card.png | 23:36 |
| mhall119 | bah, helps if I give you a link you can access, huh? | 23:36 |
| mhall119 | http://people.ubuntu.com/~mhall119/business_card.png | 23:37 |
| MrChrisDruif | Yeah, I think that should help ;-) | 23:38 |
