dholbachbkerensa, so I went through all the posts in my "Ubuntu developer" G+ circle and found lots of good stuff08:42
dholbachthis way we can let the developers speak for themselves :)08:42
Lionthinkergreatings all09:30
LionthinkerI would like to be involved with the weekly newsletter09:30
dholbachhey Lionthinker - that's awesome09:30
Lionthinkergreat, so how does this happen?09:31
dholbachI'm personally not too involved in the Ubuntu Weekly News, but more in Development news09:31
Lionthinkernot being a great programmer, or any type of programmer I figure its one area I could help in09:31
dholbachmaybe it'd be a good idea to check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter and the pages linked from there to learn a bit more about the organisation and how the team works09:32
dholbach...until somebody shows up who is a bit more experienced with UWN is put together :)09:32
Lionthinkeri read it, but it was sparce09:32
dholbachthere's https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/EditingPolicies and https://docs.google.com/document/edit?id=18ZbtFHQq6uMj7iuRLd11VH8V5Uc_FA0IfgiRUcbMbQk where the actual work goes on09:33
Lionthinkerthanks09:34
dholbachI could imagine (I'll just say this now until somebody else can clarify) that it helps to work a bit on the summaries09:34
dholbachso checking out some of the news and writing a nice summary 3-4 line summary of what it's about09:35
dholbachmaybe you can mark all your contributions with a marker, so somebody else can double-check them (like "added by Lionthinker, please let me know on IRC if it is alright" or something along those lines)09:36
dholbachLionthinker, I hope that gives you a little bit perspective and is of some help (with me not being on the core team :-))09:36
Lionthinkerit does and thanks09:37
Lionthinkerthe world ubuntu is vast and very alive09:37
dholbach:-)09:37
Lionthinkergotta go, later09:39
dholbachbkerensa, update posted11:23
bkerensadholbach: Excellent15:07
dholbachthat's something we can probably always do: just check whatever happened on G+ in a circle of Ubuntu devs15:11
bkerensadholbach: Heh... I have just two circles.... VIP and Pages15:12
bkerensa:D15:12
bkerensaIt would be epic interesting to sort VIP into smaller circles.... I have about 800+ people in it15:13
dholbachhttps://plus.google.com/109795858099658821877/posts/bykpfc5jgiN15:14
dholbachI could probably add many more, but that's one I made a few weeks ago15:14
dholbachonce you're past all the kitten videos and "this is what my mom thinks I do" pics, there's quite a number of newsworthy things in there15:15
bkerensadholbach: You will have to tell me sometime what exactly Foundations does...15:20
bkerensaI know slangasek is on the team but he was unable to explain what they do in a way I understood15:20
bkerensa:D15:20
dholbacheverything which does not happen in the kernel, but teams like desktop and server rely on15:21
dholbachbooting up15:21
dholbachinstallation15:21
dholbachpackage installation (although software-center is in a separate team)15:22
dholbachthings like that15:22
dholbachof course there's enough team overlap, and that's a good thing15:22
bkerensadholbach: I sent questions upstream (akgraner) to be routed to pgraner (Kernel Team)15:54
dholbachgreat15:54
bkerensaso perhaps next week we can use that15:54
bkerensa:)15:54
akgranerhe's got them, but he won't be working on them today19:20
pleia2I'll toss the 10.04.4 announcement on the fridge unless somoene else is working on it22:30
akgranerthanks lyz - I'm not as I am finishing a book chapter however if you need me to I will22:30
