harrisi am trying to make bootable linux  usb04:21
ubudogHi harris, a better place to ask would be the #ubuntu channel, as this is a meeting channel.04:21
harrisnobody is on number ubuntu04:22
ubudogThere are a few people there helping, including myself.  Just ask.  :)04:23
elkyharris, you need to join the channel first.04:24
elkytyping "/join #ubuntu" (but with no quote marks) should do it for most irc clients.04:25

bodhizazenAnyone here want to discuss Ripfox ?06:07
Artificial_Intelis he aware of this meeting today?06:07
bodhizazenProbably not06:07
bodhizazenI would say we can give Ripfox the benefit of the doubt here, and reverse the ban06:08
bodhizazenBut it is probably a little too late06:08
IowanWhat caused it?06:08
Artificial_Intelnext time in such situation we need to send an e-mail to the person(s).06:08
* bodhizazen looks06:08
cariboo907I just checked Ripfox's history in the RC, he seems to have had problems with moderation since 200806:09
bodhizazenRipfox  - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?threadid=188193606:09
bodhizazenHere is the thread in the RC - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=187766206:11
coffeecatThere were a number of strange RC threads in 2008 and then nothing until the Unity trolling business in 201106:11
Artificial_IntelWe can give him a second chance.06:12
IowanI'd opt for "converting" the 15 pointer to 506:12
cariboo907+1 for a second chance06:12
bodhizazenWell, the unity issue came up at sort of a bad time - I think most of the staff was sort of sick of it already06:12

bodhizazen[TOPIC]Buffalo Soldier Sub-forum request06:15
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Buffalo Soldier Sub-forum request
bodhizazen[LINK]http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=189153406:16
bodhizazenBuffalo Soldier or s-fox ?06:16
bodhizazenI would say +1 if Buffalo makes contact with Canonical first, but I am not sure how far along the process is06:17
moergaesHow was it about having a general sub-forum for preinstalled Buntu?06:17
moergaesI mean, there could be many requests from small companies for a similar forum.06:18
* cariboo907 +1, but I'd like to see him go through Canonical06:19
bodhizazenExactly06:19
Artificial_Intelor forums with with subs for each companies, like we have loco forums. Then we avoid mess06:19
bodhizazenI like the idea of promoting pre-installed Ubuntu / Linux, but I am uncomfortable with promoting this vs that product06:19
bodhizazenIf we promote a product, IMO, it should be in conjunction with Canonical06:20
Artificial_Intelaye06:20
coffeecatagreed06:20
cariboo907As far as I'm concerned we (the forum) shouldn't play favourites06:20
IowanI presume it was Canonical who established the current manufacturer sub forums06:20

bodhizazen[TOPIC] CC meeting06:22
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: CC meeting
bodhizazenIt would be ideal if at least one FC could attend CC meetings =)06:23
bodhizazenThey are at odd times (last I looked) an it will be difficult for me to attend06:23
bodhizazenWe could rotate (see last item on agenda)06:24
cariboo907I haven't looked to see what time the meetings are at, so I can't say06:24
* cariboo907 checked, I can probably make it06:25
bodhizazenAlong those lines, would be nice to see FC and staff promote ubuntu within other community venues - LP, wiki, IRC, ask ubuntu, and there is a community channel ??06:25
IowanI'd be happy to attend, if time/date/memory all cooperate.06:25
Artificial_Intellast time I checked, their meetings are around 2-3 o'clock  in the morning for me, so I'll have difficulties to attend.06:25
bodhizazenAny more comments on CC meetings ?06:25
cariboo907the meetings are on the 1st and 3rd thursday at 17:00 UTC06:26
bodhizazenExactly AI , the CC meets at inconvenient to all sorts of times06:26
bodhizazenI am going to skip to ZaReason sub forums06:26
bodhizazen[TOPIC]06:27
bodhizazenZaReason Sub-Forum Idea06:27
=== Topic unset by meetingology on #ubuntu-meeting
bodhizazenProbably same as with Buffalo soldiger06:27
Artificial_Intelaye06:27
bodhizazenHave we had any "official" contact from Zareason or Canonical ?06:27
Artificial_Intelno news on that front?06:27
cariboo907+1 to that06:27
coffeecatDidn't ZaReason already contact Canonical?06:27
bodhizazen[ACTION]s-fox to follow up on Zareason =)06:28
meetingologyACTION: s-fox to follow up on Zareason =)06:28
bodhizazen[TOPIC]Community building ideas06:28
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Community building ideas
bodhizazenI would like to see more positive / support / social interactions with staff and community , and not all fighting with trolls and spam-ban06:29
cariboo907I was approched by effenberg0x0 about creating a bit of a community around the ubuntu +1 sub-forum06:29
bodhizazenAny ideas on how to promote community spirit of forums ?06:29
bodhizazenThat would be great cariboo90706:30
bodhizazenI have been working on the ask ubuntu community06:30
Artificial_Intelinteract in lighthearted topics in café, not only in the one that can explode any time soon.06:30
cariboo907effenberg0x0 and I are conducting a classroom session at UDW so i'll discuss it with him further06:30
bodhizazenask ubuntu often refers conversations from ask ubuntu -> ubuntu fourms , I have make them aware we do not appreciate some of the topics though =)06:31
bodhizazenAlso, staff in general should be aware of #ubuntu-community-team06:32
cariboo907unfortunately I have to leave for work, so I'll say good day to all06:32
bodhizazenIt is sort of a gathering IRC channel for various people in various leadership positions across the community06:32
Artificial_Intelany exampel of this?06:33
bodhizazenexample of what Artificial_Intel ?06:33
Artificial_Intel"ask ubuntu often refers conversations from ask ubuntu -> ubuntu fourms , I have make them aware we do not appreciate some of the topics though"06:33
bodhizazenI would have to dig some up ..06:34
* bodhizazen looks06:34
bodhizazenhttp://askubuntu.com/questions/100407/how-to-improve-the-launcher-and-the-menus-usability06:35
bodhizazenSee comments06:35
coffeecat"I don't know where the right place for Unity feedback is, but this isn't it." Sounds familiar!06:36
Artificial_IntelAn Unity sub forum?06:37
bodhizazenhttp://askubuntu.com/questions/100288/things-to-do-on-ubuntu-to-get-experienced06:37
bodhizazen"This sort of discussion is a better fit for the Ubuntu Forums. – Jorge Castro 10 hours ago "06:37
bodhizazenThat sort of thing Artificial_Intel and coffeecat06:38
bodhizazenjust FYI06:38
Artificial_Intelyea, there's no need to send the garbage to UF06:38
bodhizazenIf I see a referral of a conversation that is more obviously trolling I object =)06:38
bodhizazenYea, for now monitor it, there is some cross posting between ask ubuntu and the forums, support as well as conversation06:39
coffeecatCommunity spirit. How about involving the Ubuntu members (through forum contributions)?06:39
bodhizazenIt is not as if we notice the referrals from ask ubuntu , the cafe is busy enough that IMO it is not a problem06:39
bodhizazen+1 coffeecat06:40
bodhizazenI would like to suggest adding 1-2 staff 1 month prior to a release06:40
bodhizazenand ask less active ones to step down, sort of keeps the staff and community working together and lessens burn out06:41
IowanCriteria?06:41
bodhizazenAny other community building suggestions ?06:41
bodhizazenCriteria - Ubuntu fourms members + positive contributions06:41
bkerensa:)06:42
bodhizazendo not have criteria for stepping down ...06:42
bodhizazenAny other comments on community building ?06:42
bodhizazenI just wanted you all to keep in mind , we are community leaders, and we should make an effort to grow the community, recognize the positive contributions of othes , and work with the other community leaders06:43
bodhizazenA common comment on many teams in the community is isolation =)06:43
Artificial_IntelCan't we put this topic up in Staff chit chat.06:44
bodhizazenI did not necessarily think we would have a "solution" to this "problem" and I wish s-fox were here ;P06:44
coffeecatI'm still mulling over Ubuntu members.06:44
bodhizazengo for it Artificial_Intel06:44
coffeecatDon't have a conc rete suggestion.06:44
bodhizazen[TOPIC]Division of Labor06:44
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Division of Labor
bodhizazenIt is sad to say, the FC has grown inactive in the last few months for a variety of reasons.06:45
bodhizazenI was wondering if it might be helpful to divide the tasks and "assign" certain tasks to certain members06:45
bodhizazenWe could rotate tasks or not06:46
Artificial_Intelseems like a goode idea to try it out06:46
bodhizazenI posted an initial "to do" list here : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=191236806:47
IowanA to-do list would be helpful06:47
bodhizazenwas hoping for any other suggestions I might have missed06:47
Iowan<out-typed!06:47
bodhizazenWe can then assign FC - these two, Ubuntu membership - those two, etc06:47
bodhizazenI did not want to start assigning the tasks just yet, but suggest we start this month ?06:48
bodhizazenOne person can approve mailings to the FC mailing list, etc06:48
bodhizazenWe can touch base on assigning tasks in chit chat ?06:49
IowanWhich tasks are in deepest need - or are most?06:49
s-foxHello06:49
bodhizazenHow about if everyone selects something to do this month =)06:49
coffeecatYes06:49
bodhizazenDeepest need - we need to , IMO06:50
bodhizazen1. assess staff needs06:50
Artificial_IntelI don't mind having RC. I interact with people on professional level daily.06:50
bodhizazen2. start up on the monthly team report06:50
bodhizazendo you all know what that is ?06:50
s-foxI can do #206:51
bodhizazenOK06:51

bodhizazen[LINK]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TeamReports06:52

bodhizazenand ones you need help with06:53
s-foxWe have a backlog to process. +1 on getting on top of it06:54
bodhizazenThe only one I think we need to discuss is wolfen6906:54
bodhizazenKeep in mind, eventually , if not now, all future staff have to be members06:54
IowanHave we added a participation (calendar) reuiement?06:55
bodhizazenEncourage all your friends and people with helpful posts you see to apply06:55
bodhizazenWe should ask the entire staff to invite06:55
bodhizazenHow about if FC members post what tasks they will take this month here : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=191236806:56
bodhizazenThen start a discussion thread on your topic / issue in scc06:56

s-foxSorry, i was thinking of the old username. Now flies by Bachstelze07:00
coffeecatbodhizazen, I think we ought to have a formal vote/discussion on each applicant in http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=406 As quickly as possible, obviously.07:00

moergaesIs there any decision on that?07:13
bodhizazenI think the community standard is 1 year, and people then can auto-renew themselves ?07:13
IowanWas that a 1-year participation requirement???07:14
s-foxArtificial_Intel I will see about adding you back :-)07:14
bodhizazenI do not have to do much of anything to maintain my Ubuntu Membership07:14
coffeecatmoergaes: that was something I would like to look at. If everyone is happy I'll start a debate in SCC with other membership matters,07:14
bodhizazen+1 coffeecat07:14
s-fox+1 bodhizazen07:14
bodhizazenI think the key working is "significant contributions"07:14
bodhizazenrather then a strict time of participation07:15
bodhizazenI would say 6 month minimum07:15
bodhizazenin terms of forums account activation07:15
coffeecat+1 perhaps longer07:15
IowanDocumented somewhere?07:16
s-foxAre we in danger of not recognising contribution outside of the forum?07:16
IowanThere are other membership teams for that as well.07:16
s-foxNot enough outside to warrant membership by normal means, but activities of note regardless07:17
bodhizazens-fox, well that is why we ask them to make a wiki page07:17
s-foxOkay07:17
bodhizazenwe should review their contributions, but applicants should be responsible for bringing it to our attention via wiki07:17
bodhizazenOh, I almost forgot ...07:18
bodhizazenHow do you all want to manage / elect / appoint the FC chairperson ?07:18
bodhizazen[TOPIC] Identify FC chairperson07:18
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Identify FC chairperson
bodhizazenhave FC members vote ? staff vote ?07:18
s-foxI thought the idea was the FC elect chair ;)07:19
bodhizazenThat was what was discussed previously, but I do not think we have had an official FC chairperson for quiet some time07:19
bodhizazenso I though it best to put it up for discussion07:20
s-foxWell, you know what I think bodhizazen07:20
IowanI know who has been doing the job...07:21
bodhizazenWe should set up some sort of election , suggestions on how to do so ?07:23
s-foxIn terms of seniority, only 1 choice exists. bodhizazen07:23
bodhizazenvote somewhere ?07:23
s-foxWe number 7 on the fc. Do we strictly need a chair?07:24
bodhizazenI do not think the position should be based on seniority, it should be an elected position07:24
bodhizazens-fox, I have not looked in a while, but my understanding was that the CC wanted a chair07:24
bodhizazenWe could post to the CC asking if we need a chairperson07:25
bodhizazenI would be fine without appointing one07:25
bodhizazens/appointing/electing, lol07:25
s-foxOkay, only difference is chair gets  casting vote uncase of ties07:25
s-foxIncase07:25

bdmurraycjwatson: I dont' know how people find wubi but putting a new wubi.exe at http://people.canonical.com/~evand/wubi/oneiric/ might help16:16
cjwatsonbdmurray: the bug reports that it came off the CD image16:16
slangasekjodh: doh... :)16:17
bdmurraycjwatson: okay, yes but I tested it by just downloading 245.exe16:17
cjwatsonalthough I agree that a build of r247 there wouldn't go amiss - ev?  I'm surprised we didn't have one there actually16:17
evI think we didn't put a newer build on the CD because it was determined that they wouldn't be using the download a compressed disk image path when running off the CD16:18
evas this was an 11th hour release thing16:18
evif memory serves16:18
evso the bug, as I've just commented in the report, is that it's going down the download path at all16:18
cjwatsonev: ok, but I wonder how we were expecting them to get it off the website if you didn't publish a build16:18
cjwatsonit was all a rush that morning16:19
evI'm confused. Why would we be expecting them to get it off the website?16:20
bdmurrayIsn't that where http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/windows-installer takes you?16:21
cjwatsonwell, it sends you to a wubi.exe from a mirror of releases.ubuntu.com I think, but the executable does need to come from somewhere16:21
cjwatsonand the source for that is ev's people.c.c directory16:22
cjwatsonso, yes, I think anyone going through the website path is broken right now16:23
evfor 12.0416:24
evnot for 11.10, unless I'm missing some part of this conversation16:24
bdmurrayno, for 11.1016:24
cjwatsonwhat he said16:24
slangasekI've lost the thread here; that bug is about a wubi copied off of a CD, I thought?16:24
cjwatsonthe problem is that 11.10's wubi.exe uses a URL for the disk image which now refers to a daily build of precise16:25
bdmurrayhttp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-installer/wubi/trunk/view/245/data/isolist.ini16:25
cjwatsonwe cannot fix this for wubi copied off CDs, but the same problem currently goes for people downloading it from the redirect on www.ubuntu.com (which I think is for 11.10)16:25
evin that version16:25
bdmurrayand the wubi.exe on the cd is the same as the one you download at ubuntu.com...windows-installer16:25
evbut I could've sworn that we published a later version on the website...16:26
cjwatsonev: so could I, but I can't see how we would have done without there being a build in your people.c.c directory16:26
bdmurrayI checked the md5sum of wubi.exe at http://releases.ubuntu.com/oneiric/ and it was rev 24516:26
cjwatsonyes, I just did as well16:27
cjwatsonmatches wubi-r245-signed.exe16:27
cjwatsonso I think we need a new build, get it signed, get it tested, push to releases.u.c/oneiric/16:27
evyeah16:27
slangasekev: can you take care of that?16:28
evyup, on it16:28

cjwatsonI think it is fixable but not before tomorrow16:38
slangasekyes, I agree that sounds like it should be release noted16:38
slangasekwhat's our recommendation there?16:39
slangasekfor users trying to upgrade, I mean16:39
cjwatsoninstall apt first, if possible16:39
cjwatson(from precise)16:40
cjwatsonthat strategy worked for RAOF's system16:40
slangasekwhich is stepping pretty far outside of the update-manager workflow.  Do we want to give them a pointer in the release notes to the launchpad page for a direct download from the librarian?16:40
slangasekor do we assume "if you're running 64-bit and upgrading to an alpha, you can figure it out" :)16:40
cjwatsonwell, the list thread was about fixing the update-manager workflow :)  I don't know that it has to be polished for a milestone16:41
cjwatsonit wouldn't just be a single download since you need new libapt-pkg as well16:41
slangasekyep16:41
cjwatsonwe could publish a python-apt program that did it ... but well, not sure it's worth it16:41

bdmurraywell we talked about bug 922330 already16:43

evcould someone lean on the security team to look at bug 913694 for me?16:43
ubottuLaunchpad bug 913694 in whoopsie-daisy (Ubuntu) "[MIR] whoopsie-daisy" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/91369416:43
jdstrandev: it is on my list for this week16:44
evjdstrand: yay!16:44
evcheers16:44
bdmurrayI ran acrss bug 550717 recently16:44
ubottuLaunchpad bug 550717 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "[Lucid] two accessiblity related bug with Ubiquity, with easy to fix" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/55071716:44
slangasekdoko_: btw, where are we with java-access-bridge switching off of at-spi?  the task is assigned to TheMuso and targeted to a2, but it looks like desktop team thinks the remaining changes needed are in openjdk-6?16:45
* cjwatson giggles manically at "accessibility" and "easy" in the same sentence16:45
slangasekas easy as 1, 2, shift+ctrl+meta+backtick16:46
doko_slangasek, not yet there, have committed it, but it crashes, need to look at it16:46
slangasekdoko_: alrighty16:46
cjwatsonI think half of that bug is probably fixed and the other half of the suggested change isn't something we'd be prepared to do16:47
cjwatsonI'll look into it and leave a comment16:47
bdmurrayokay thanks16:47
bdmurrayThen bug 852181 isn't about one of our packages, I think, but is easily confused for one16:48
ubottuLaunchpad bug 852181 in indicator-session (Ubuntu Oneiric) "Wrong indication again about updates" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/85218116:48
bdmurrayIts about apt watcher in indicator session16:48
slangaseksomewhere between update-notifier and indicator-session, I guess16:50
slangasekbdmurray: given that I don't think any of us have the spare bandwidth to dive into indicator-session to fix it, not sure what else we can do there?16:52
bdmurrayI'll see if there are more duplicates about that bug hiding in update-notifier or update-manager to see if there are lots16:53
slangasekmakes sense16:53
bdmurrayOkay, that's that then16:53
* slangasek adds a tag to the bug too ;)16:53

charlie-tca:)17:09
balloonsok, it's been quite a week for everyone and I know your busy so I will try and keep this short.17:09
balloons[TOPIC] Previous Actions17:09
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-meeting to: Previous Actions
balloonswe have 3 outstanding actions.. gema, myself and alourie17:09
balloonsLet's start with "gema and balloons to provide feedback from mozilla caseconductor meeting"17:10
balloonsgema, feel free to chome in after myself.. Gema and I met with the case conductor folks on friday.17:11
gemawill do17:11
balloonsWe talked about the list of requirements we need for case conductor to support our testing. In particular, we noted we are testing groups of applications, not a single application, and in addition we needed to define tests at an application level, but define test runs and cycles at a higher level17:12
albrighaI'm present btw.17:12
balloonsgema, I believe that list of requirements was decided on by the list in dec, correct?17:13
gemayes17:13
balloonsgreat, so if you haven't seen, go look at the list archives. I'll try and find a link in a min as well17:14
balloonsThe case conductor folks seemed excitied we would be using the product and wanted to make the changes so the tool would be generic enough for others like ourselves to use17:14
balloonsour other concern was reporting, which they also mentioned they would be beefing up17:15
balloonsoverall I think it went well, and we committed to following up with them to help eliminate the confusion surrounding our requests. It wasn't easy for them to get the concept of so many apps and different flavors of ubuntu :-)17:16
balloonsIn addition, a charm has been created for case conductor, and sometime soon I trust we will have the new version running as a test for everyone to try out17:17
balloonsShould happen sometime this month17:17
* balloons crosses fingers17:17
balloonsthat's it for me on that.. gema?17:18
gemanothing to add, you did a good summary17:18
balloonsquestions?17:18
balloonshere is the link to the archive thread btw: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-qa/2011-December/001805.html17:18
balloonsok, doesn't look like alourie is present, so we will move his action out again17:19

balloons[ACTION]:alourie to feature AutomatedTesting wiki page prominently in wiki, based upon list discussion17:19
meetingologyACTION: :alourie to feature AutomatedTesting wiki page prominently in wiki, based upon list discussion17:19
gemaballoons: maybe we should talk to alourie and if he cannot progress this action, have someone else modify the wiki17:19
gemain the meantime17:19
balloonsyes, I agree.17:20
balloonslast action ACTION: balloons to continue test case review and provide updates on progress17:20
balloonsI can update and say that we got all of the nautilus test cases reviewed and in the wiki.. In addition, more have been written and are awaiting entrance to the wiki. We made some good progress17:21
balloonsI will note that case conductor will allow us to export our test cases and import them into case conductor when the time comes, so we will not be having to do rework17:22
balloonsThat also came out of speaking with the cc folks17:23
balloonsok, let's move on17:24
balloonsdoes anyone have anything to add to the agenda? I'll call on you at the end if so17:24

amjjawadeveryone is informed now :)20:22
amjjawadanother thing is, I have started to recruit new members to my team (support team). Those members are known to be very active on the forum with many years of experience20:23
amjjawadone of them has already joined today and I'm still looking for more20:23
rafaellagunathat sounds great!20:23
phillwexcellent :)20:23
amjjawadOne thing I don't understand ... why we keep waiting for some action from UBT?20:24
amjjawadI mean, can't we make our own beginner team but yet part of them somehow? I see no progress from them for months now??!!20:24
phillwamjjawad: I understand their draft structure will be out before the end of this month.20:25
amjjawadbut we've been heard that many times now?20:25
phillwI had not.20:25
amjjawadpoint is, I can be a mentor for Lubuntu beginners users20:25
phillwBut I'm chatting to the guy writing it :)20:25
amjjawadonly Lubuntu20:25
amjjawadI care about Lubuntu the most as all of u know20:26
michaelrawson;)20:26
phillwamjjawad: which will possibly be a Focus Group.20:26
amjjawadyes20:26
amjjawadwhy not :)20:26
amjjawadI've been very sick lately and my recovery is really slow. Once I'm fully recovered, I'll start to write a full guide for beginner20:27
amjjawadthen I'll help StephenSmally to write some Docs about LSC :)20:27
phillwamjjawad: take your time & get better. Poorly people are not as efficient as well people!20:27
amjjawadoh, and wxl has created a group for Lubuntu and both of us are taking care of it https://www.facebook.com/groups/lubuntu.official/20:27
StephenSmallyOk, i figured out i had to help you, not the reverse XD20:28
amjjawadphillw: I can't stay clam, u know me  :P20:28

StephenSmallyWell LxLauncher20:29
rafaellagunao_O20:29
StephenSmallyas you probably have seen on the Mailing List, i'm working on a rewrite of LxLauncher20:30
StephenSmallyto give you an idea, here a screenshot (two min ago) of lxlauncher (the rewrite) themed with css20:30
StephenSmallyhttp://i40.tinypic.com/bip24y.jpg20:30
michaelrawsonnow that's cool.20:30
michaelrawsonbut why the gaps?20:30
StephenSmallyBecause are category-sorted20:31
michaelrawsonahah. :)20:31
StephenSmallyon the right you see the categories (needs some separators), and on the right the apps20:31
StephenSmallyin this screenshot is themed a little like gnome shell20:31
StephenSmallybut every theme is possible, since is just gtk theming20:32
rafaellagunaeven icon sizes and transparency?20:32
StephenSmallyrafaellaguna is better at this ;-)20:32
StephenSmallymmm no20:32
amjjawadStephenSmally: quick Q20:32
StephenSmallythe icon size and the number of columns are configured by a desktop file20:33
StephenSmallyamjjawad:20:33
amjjawadLXLauncher will work like Unity Menu or something similar?20:33
phillwgrr20:33
StephenSmallycan you explain better?20:33
rafaellagunaanyway, it's configurable someway20:33
amjjawadI couldn't follow the emails coz I was sick20:33
michaelrawsonphillw: lol, I thought somebody would say that.20:33
amjjawadso LxLauncher ... why it looks like Unity menu?20:33
StephenSmallyrafaellaguna: you can configure the columns number, the theme and the icon size20:34
StephenSmallyamjjawad: because now is themed like the unity menu ;-)20:34
StephenSmallywe can theme as we want20:34
amjjawadI'll send you later and discuss about that20:34
amjjawadkeep the meeting going :)20:34
StephenSmallyAnyway, it won't be ready for Precise, so we have all the time to speak about and so on20:35
rafaellagunaonce knowing the css/gtk bases, everything will run20:35
rafaellagunathere was no intention of removing current LxLauncher20:35
amjjawadgood so we have time, phew :D20:35
rafaellagunauntil replacing with this20:36
StephenSmallyonly if we (the community) think is better than the current lxlauncher we will replace it20:36
rafaellagunaof course20:36
phillwStephenSmally: thanks.20:37
rafaellagunabut I'd like to get rid off that annoying GTK2 and dependant libraries from the distro20:37
rafaellagunait will be cleaner for devs and for designers :)20:37
MrChrisDruifAloha20:37

* MrChrisDruif first grabs food20:39
StephenSmallyanyway, it act in way similar to unity20:39
StephenSmallybut is not a shell20:39
StephenSmallyis always in background (omnipresent)20:39
StephenSmallyand if you want launch an app, just click on.20:39
StephenSmallyjust think at it like the current lxlauncher, and how it act in the current Lubuntu netbook session20:39
StephenSmallymy rewrite is thinked also for tablet (in the current lxlauncher is impossible change tab with finger)20:39
StephenSmallyanyway, for comparision20:39
StephenSmallycurrent lxlauncher: http://wiki.lxde.org/en/images/5/5c/LXlauncher.png20:39
rafaellagunamy personal headache20:40
MrChrisDruifIs the previous topic done? Whatever it was?20:40
phillwMrChrisDruif: I think so, I didn't realise StephenSmally was writing!20:41
StephenSmallyrafaellaguna: agree20:41
MrChrisDruifStephenSmally; done?20:41
StephenSmallydone ;-)20:41
MrChrisDruifAwesome20:41
MrChrisDruifAnyhow, work has started on some level with the wiki20:42
MrChrisDruifMy friend and current chair phillw began setting up some pages to practice with the #divert tag20:43
MrChrisDruifWhen he's done with that he'll also write some docs on how to use that, thanks already for what you've done phillw20:43
amjjawadI'm updating some pages every time I find myself ree20:44
amjjawadfree*20:44
amjjawadhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/ContactUs << today I updated this page20:45
MrChrisDruifSecondly on the help pages we've got a FAQ section. which now is divided into Guides and Workarounds, which is not a good divider if you ask me20:45
amjjawadand I'm sure phillw and MrChrisDruif know about the issue I mentioned earlier :)20:45
MrChrisDruifI notice sometimes amjjawad20:45
MrChrisDruifAbout the duplicity amjjawad ?20:46
amjjawad+1 I don't like the current FAQ layout20:46
amjjawadMrChrisDruif: yes20:46
amjjawadI sent many emails today and I'm totally lost now :/ I did not get replies yet!20:46
MrChrisDruifOne suggestion is replacing it with a indication level to the experience a user would require to use them20:47
MrChrisDruifamjjawad; I had to work today, having dinner as we speak20:47
amjjawadMrChrisDruif: are we talking about FAQ now?20:47
MrChrisDruifYes20:47
amjjawadMrChrisDruif: whenever you are free, ping me on Gtalk20:47
amjjawadok?20:47
amjjawadwe need to talk :)20:48
* MrChrisDruif lost track of mind20:48
amjjawadso we talk discuss other stuff on the meeting as our time is tight20:48
phillw(20:47:06) MrChrisDruif: One suggestion is replacing it with a indication level to the experience a user would require to use them20:48
Unit193We also need to not sandbox out wiki from the rest20:48
rafaellagunasorry guys, need to go. as always, it was a pleasure20:49
amjjawadcya rafaellaguna ;)20:49
michaelrawsonbye rafael20:49
phillwtc rafaellaguna20:49
MrChrisDruifAnyhow, I think the most effective way for the docs team is to use the mailing-list20:49
rafaellaguna;)20:49
MrChrisDruifI'm not always available for meetings or chats20:49
phillwsounds good :)20:50
amjjawadMrChrisDruif: ok but ...20:50
