| ubot2 | The Loco Council is cprofitt, czajkowski, greg-g, itnet7, SergioMeneses and xdatap1 - they are there to help, just ask! :) You can send them an email at loco-council@lists.ubuntu.com | 17:45 |
| mhall119 | I'd like to suggest changing the hashtag and pictag for the upcoming global jam from #ugj to #globaljam | 17:46 |
| mhall119 | 1) #ugj is being used for something else already, #globaljam isn't | 17:46 |
| mhall119 | 2) #globaljam is relatively short, and can be used in combination with #ubuntu | 17:46 |
| mhall119 | 3) #globaljam is more descriptive than #ugj | 17:46 |
| greg-g | mhall119: what is #ugj being used for? | 17:55 |
| greg-g | and there are hashtag collisions many times for the really short ones | 17:56 |
| mhall119 | greg-g: seems an expression of exasperation | 17:57 |
| greg-g | (which, since microblogs are temporal it isn't much of an issue) | 17:57 |
| greg-g | huh | 17:57 |
| mhall119 | probably an alternative to or misspelling of #ugh | 17:57 |
| greg-g | interesting | 17:57 |
| greg-g | mhall119: how about just saying "please use #globaljam (or #ugj) for jam-related posts" ? I mean, I don't really care, honestly | 18:01 |
| mhall119 | greg-g: we'll say that, yes, but I need to know what to use for the microblog and photo feeds on loco.ubuntu.com | 18:01 |
| greg-g | ah | 18:03 |
| greg-g | can you do both? | 18:03 |
| mhall119 | no | 18:03 |
| mhall119 | not currently | 18:03 |
| * greg-g nods | 18:04 | |
| mhall119 | greg-g: the other suggestion is to just use #ubuntu for those feeds | 18:04 |
| greg-g | mhall119: I was thinking that, might be the most simple | 18:09 |
| greg-g | so we disrecommend #ugj and #globaljam, then since we can't look for more than one | 18:10 |
| mhall119 | greg-g: ok, that's 2 votes in favor of #ubuntu, good enough for me | 18:10 |
| greg-g | :) | 18:10 |
| mhall119 | greg-g: czajkowski: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/1443/detail/ | 18:14 |
| mhall119 | you guys (LC) can now use markdown and straight HTML in the global event descriptions | 18:14 |
| greg-g | woot | 18:15 |
| mhall119 | we also have a dashboard page just for the global jam: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/globaljam/ | 18:15 |

| head_victim | Interesting, just checked out the globaljam dashboard and apparently there is now a Ubuntu Streetkids Theatre - http://www.ubuntutheatre.org/EN/mission.htm (saw some weird pictures in the flickr stream for Ubuntu) | 22:50 |
| mhall119 | head_victim interesting | 22:59 |
| bkerensa | head_victim: Yeah Ubuntu is being used quite a bit outside the realm of FOSS lately | 22:59 |
| mhall119 | I know there's an Ubuntu restaurant somewhere in California too | 22:59 |
| bkerensa | there is a restaurant called Ubuntu in San Francisco | 22:59 |
| bkerensa | :D | 22:59 |
| mhall119 | ha | 22:59 |
| bkerensa | and Ubuntu Cola | 22:59 |
| bkerensa | and many other Ubuntu things | 22:59 |
| bkerensa | :D | 22:59 |
| mhall119 | oh, I thought Ubuntu cola was made for the software | 22:59 |
| bkerensa | nope | 22:59 |
| bkerensa | :D | 22:59 |
| bkerensa | private company :D | 22:59 |
| bkerensa | Canonical doesnt enforce their trademark very effectively | 23:00 |
| czajkowski | bkerensa: you do like the one word per sentence don't you | 23:01 |
| czajkowski | thought there was life going on in here till I realised it was you one per lining :) | 23:01 |
| bkerensa | Most sorry about my IRC habits unfortunately I was unable to curb the habit a decade ago | 23:02 |
| bkerensa | :) | 23:02 |
| czajkowski | :/ | 23:02 |
| bkerensa | I also enjoy smileys | 23:02 |
| pleia2 | bkerensa: it's not in San Francisco, it's all the way up in Napa | 23:08 |
| pleia2 | and you can't actually enforce dictionary word trademarks broadly outside your industry | 23:10 |
| pleia2 | (apple music label and apple itunes, problem; ubuntu operating system and ubuntu cola, no problem) | 23:11 |
| bkerensa | pleia2: I see | 23:20 |
| bkerensa | I thought trademark powers were much broader... I guess thats a good thing | 23:20 |
| bkerensa | Hmm... Napa | 23:20 |
| mhall119 | bkerensa: trademark only applies when there is the possibility of consumers buying one product thinking it is the other | 23:21 |
| mhall119 | since nobody is buying food from Canonical, or buying OS support from a restaurant, there's no problem | 23:21 |
| bkerensa | How does Google enforce their trademarks against typo domains then? Unless the site using a typo domain is a search engine or engaged in offering similar services? | 23:23 |
| mhall119 | bkerensa: probably the domains are registered and hosted in a country with less that effective trademark enforcement policies | 23:25 |
