sagacihead_victim: did you think about that ubuntu-manual project?01:28
head_victimsagaci: I believe the ubuntu-manual project was started by another ubuntu-au'er of a while ago (nisshh)04:30
head_victimIt looks like a good idea but I've never had enough time to really look into it.04:31
sagaciI'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 doing04:32
head_victimAh, I don't recall the conversation but I don't deny something like that occuring ;)04:32
head_victimI'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:P04:37
head_victimSorry it's a bit drab but at least it's there - http://ubuntu.org.au/node/9104:50
* benonsoftware checks it out04:52

benonsoftwaresagaci: Yeah, but thats during school :P07:35
sagacijust stay up one night on red bull07:36
sagaciEMEA is 7am07:38
sagacior asked for a later place in the meeting could push it to 7:30am07:39
sagaciask*07:40
head_victimbenonsoftware: 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
benonsoftwarehead_victim: Thank you, I'm getting a few testimonals first07:54
benonsoftwareand the time is bad for me07:54
benonsoftwareAs I would be at school during all of the times or sleeping :P07:55
sagaciit's only <20mins :)07:58
benonsoftwareWell <20min could be a big difference :P07:59
sagaciyou just need to make time08:00
benonsoftwareYeah, 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 :P08:01
sagaciAsia/Oceania would only go until 9:30pm at the most, if you requested to go first08:03
benonsoftwareYeah, I might apply via that in a few weeks time08:03
benonsoftware(If I'm ready :P)08:03
sagaciI think you know when you're ready08:04
sagacibut 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 201408:05
benonsoftwareYeah08:05
=== dns__ is now known as dns53
=== dns_ is now known as dns53
head_victimThe trick is showing the significant and sustained effort. Unless it's documented it's hard to show.08:20
benonsoftwareOk08:23
* benonsoftware is atm writing the back log of UBT team reports08:23
head_victimYeah, I wish I had more time to help the UBT, they're floundering a bit lately.08:28
benonsoftwareWe're getting a bit better each time :P08:29
blahdeblahHi folks. Anyone noticed that their Java Firefox plugin stopped working recently?08:42
head_victimblahdeblah: not that I'd noticed sorry but I only have 10.04 and 12.04 desktops currently08:48
blahdeblahApparently, it was done on purpose.08:50
* blahdeblah googles for changelog entries08:50
blahdeblahhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sun-java608:51
blahdeblahReferences http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/javacpuoct2011-443431.html08:52
sagaciwasn't that the one they had to remove08:52
blahdeblahNot sure what you're referring to, but it seems that they have disabled only the plugin for security reasons08:54
blahdeblahDebian recently stopped distributing the Sun Java due to licensing changes, but this seems to be something different.08:54
blahdeblahHowever, i can't see anything in that changelog which explains the link - the Java bulletin only says to update Java.08:55
head_victimOh yeah, the move to openjdk?08:59
blahdeblahThe move to openjdk for Debian was prompted by the licensing changes09:01
blahdeblahTrying this solution: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=189612209:01
head_victimblahdeblah: I thought the same occured in Ubuntu?09:01
blahdeblahI don't think so, because they come from the partner repo09:01
blahdeblahWhich i think is licensed appropriately with Oracle09:02
head_victimYeah but I thought they had to remove from the partner as well09:02
blahdeblahCould be wrong, thogh09:02
blahdeblahThe packages are definitely still there09:02
head_victimhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java#Oracle_.28Sun.29_Java_609:02
blahdeblahApparently the message hasn't reached Canonical: http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/s/sun-java6/09:04
head_victimI thought they had empty packages or something09:05
head_victimHang on I'll find some more detail09:05
blahdeblahthe linked notice has more info09:06
blahdeblahNot happy.  Have to install manually.09:06
* blahdeblah tries icedtea plugin first09:07
head_victimhttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2011-December/001528.html is the announcement I think09:09
blahdeblahFound it earlier: (19:06:41) blahdeblah: the linked notice has more info09:24
