| sagaci | head_victim: did you think about that ubuntu-manual project? | 01:28 |
|---|---|---|
| head_victim | sagaci: I believe the ubuntu-manual project was started by another ubuntu-au'er of a while ago (nisshh) | 04:30 |
| head_victim | It looks like a good idea but I've never had enough time to really look into it. | 04:31 |
| sagaci | I'm just referring to a while back when you said something along the lines of wanting to get involved with something similar to what they're doing | 04:32 |
| head_victim | Ah, I don't recall the conversation but I don't deny something like that occuring ;) | 04:32 |
| head_victim | I'm trying to do a writeup for the installfest, but I'm starting to realise why I never do much writing other than documenting specific processes ;) | 04:35 |
| benonsoftware | :P | 04:37 |
| head_victim | Sorry it's a bit drab but at least it's there - http://ubuntu.org.au/node/91 | 04:50 |
| * benonsoftware checks it out | 04:52 | |
| head_victim | Suggestions for improvements welcome :) | 04:52 |
| benonsoftware | Fine for me | 04:53 |
| * benonsoftware is helping out with the Classroom Team now ;p | 05:00 | |
| head_victim | benonsoftware: nice work. | 05:11 |
| benonsoftware | :P | 05:11 |
| benonsoftware | head_victim: When is the RMB meeting again? | 06:31 |
| sagaci | benonsoftware: second tuesday of every month | 07:27 |
| benonsoftware | sagaci: Thanks | 07:27 |
| benonsoftware | Thats sadly ruled out the Aisa board for me | 07:28 |
| benonsoftware | s/Aisa/Asia | 07:28 |
| sagaci | there's always the EMEA or Americas | 07:35 |
| benonsoftware | sagaci: Yeah, but thats during school :P | 07:35 |
| sagaci | just stay up one night on red bull | 07:36 |
| sagaci | EMEA is 7am | 07:38 |
| sagaci | or asked for a later place in the meeting could push it to 7:30am | 07:39 |
| sagaci | ask* | 07:40 |
| head_victim | benonsoftware: if you're going for membership the biggest suggestion I can make is to ensure your application (wiki page) is complete and succinct. And like sagaci said, feel free to choose whatever board suits your timetable best. | 07:53 |
| benonsoftware | head_victim: Thank you, I'm getting a few testimonals first | 07:54 |
| benonsoftware | and the time is bad for me | 07:54 |
| benonsoftware | As I would be at school during all of the times or sleeping :P | 07:55 |
| sagaci | it's only <20mins :) | 07:58 |
| benonsoftware | Well <20min could be a big difference :P | 07:59 |
| sagaci | you just need to make time | 08:00 |
| benonsoftware | Yeah, well at 2000 UTC I'm leaving for school, 0000 UTC I'm in the middle of a class and 9PM my time I'm in bed :P | 08:01 |
| sagaci | Asia/Oceania would only go until 9:30pm at the most, if you requested to go first | 08:03 |
| benonsoftware | Yeah, I might apply via that in a few weeks time | 08:03 |
| benonsoftware | (If I'm ready :P) | 08:03 |
| sagaci | I think you know when you're ready | 08:04 |
| sagaci | but I don't see it as a thing that I can just slack off for two years, I'd like to hold myself to aiming for something better and achieving that result by 2014 | 08:05 |
| benonsoftware | Yeah | 08:05 |

| head_victim | The trick is showing the significant and sustained effort. Unless it's documented it's hard to show. | 08:20 |
| benonsoftware | Ok | 08:23 |
| * benonsoftware is atm writing the back log of UBT team reports | 08:23 | |
| head_victim | Yeah, I wish I had more time to help the UBT, they're floundering a bit lately. | 08:28 |
| benonsoftware | We're getting a bit better each time :P | 08:29 |
| blahdeblah | Hi folks. Anyone noticed that their Java Firefox plugin stopped working recently? | 08:42 |
| head_victim | blahdeblah: not that I'd noticed sorry but I only have 10.04 and 12.04 desktops currently | 08:48 |
| blahdeblah | Apparently, it was done on purpose. | 08:50 |
| * blahdeblah googles for changelog entries | 08:50 | |
| blahdeblah | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sun-java6 | 08:51 |
| blahdeblah | References http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/javacpuoct2011-443431.html | 08:52 |
| sagaci | wasn't that the one they had to remove | 08:52 |
| blahdeblah | Not sure what you're referring to, but it seems that they have disabled only the plugin for security reasons | 08:54 |
| blahdeblah | Debian recently stopped distributing the Sun Java due to licensing changes, but this seems to be something different. | 08:54 |
| blahdeblah | However, i can't see anything in that changelog which explains the link - the Java bulletin only says to update Java. | 08:55 |
| head_victim | Oh yeah, the move to openjdk? | 08:59 |
| blahdeblah | The move to openjdk for Debian was prompted by the licensing changes | 09:01 |
| blahdeblah | Trying this solution: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1896122 | 09:01 |
| head_victim | blahdeblah: I thought the same occured in Ubuntu? | 09:01 |
| blahdeblah | I don't think so, because they come from the partner repo | 09:01 |
| blahdeblah | Which i think is licensed appropriately with Oracle | 09:02 |
| head_victim | Yeah but I thought they had to remove from the partner as well | 09:02 |
| blahdeblah | Could be wrong, thogh | 09:02 |
| blahdeblah | The packages are definitely still there | 09:02 |
| head_victim | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java#Oracle_.28Sun.29_Java_6 | 09:02 |
| blahdeblah | Apparently the message hasn't reached Canonical: http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/s/sun-java6/ | 09:04 |
| head_victim | I thought they had empty packages or something | 09:05 |
| head_victim | Hang on I'll find some more detail | 09:05 |
| blahdeblah | the linked notice has more info | 09:06 |
| blahdeblah | Not happy. Have to install manually. | 09:06 |
| * blahdeblah tries icedtea plugin first | 09:07 | |
| head_victim | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2011-December/001528.html is the announcement I think | 09:09 |
| blahdeblah | Found it earlier: (19:06:41) blahdeblah: the linked notice has more info | 09:24 |
| sagaci | hi Phlosten | 10:36 |
