| pleia2 | welcome passstab! | 18:13 |
| pleia2 | so, each week we release an issue of Ubuntu Weekly News: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter | 18:13 |
| pleia2 | we always need summary writers on Saturday and Sunday, and editors on Sunday and Monday to review the newsletter | 18:14 |
| pleia2 | some folks also open the google doc during the week to write summaries while we're still collecting links: http://bit.ly/vDkJyf | 18:14 |
| JoseeAntonioR | welcome to the team, passstab :) | 18:15 |
| pleia2 | passstab: if you're interested in being emailed each weekend for summaries or editing, please let me know | 18:19 |
| pleia2 | or you can just hang out here, we announce needs here too :) | 18:19 |
| passstab | so i'm adding anything ubuntu related to that document? | 18:37 |
| pleia2 | you want to help with collecting articles? | 18:38 |
| pleia2 | if so, yes, we collect ubuntu-related articles from around the internet published in the time frame specified for that week (this one is April 2-8) and add them to that document, on Friday night/Saturday morning an editor goes through and makes sure they are in the right categories and reviews the articles for usefulness, might remove some if there are too many | 18:40 |
| pleia2 | they should be news related (not how-to documents or the like) | 18:41 |
| pleia2 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Join has details of all the UWN jobs :) | 18:44 |
| passstab | cool | 18:57 |
| passstab | that does look like the role for me | 18:58 |
| JoseeAntonioR | passstab: we're still collecting links for the next edition, if you have anything to add go for it | 18:59 |
| pleia2 | ok, since ~ubuntu-news isn't tied to any code or access, I've opened the team up | 19:38 |
| pleia2 | I added join info to ~uwn (that one does have code attached, it can't be open and we do need to review who joins) | 19:39 |
| pleia2 | and ~ubuntu-fridge is staying the way it is :) moderated and instructions for successful joining are already on the page | 19:39 |
| SilverLion | someone from the news team available? | 21:13 |
| bkerensa | SilverLion: Hello | 21:16 |
| bkerensa | :D | 21:16 |
| SilverLion | bkerensa, great to have you ;) | 21:16 |
| SilverLion | PM incoming | 21:16 |
| bkerensa | k | 21:16 |
| SilverLion | <phillw> I'm hoping someone on the news team can make a decent write up for that :) | 21:16 |
| SilverLion | the second part depends from the first one i pmed you ;) | 21:16 |
| pleia2 | ? | 21:44 |
| SilverLion | evening pleia2 ;) | 21:44 |
| pleia2 | hello | 21:44 |
| bkerensa | pleia2: Lubuntu folks would like us to write up a blurb about when their QA team was founded sometime around release date if possible | 21:45 |
| pleia2 | if the post it to the lubuntu blog it'll be picked up in UWN | 21:45 |
| pleia2 | bkerensa: is this for dev team news? | 21:45 |
| bkerensa | pleia2: I think just general | 21:45 |
| bkerensa | they wanted it on the fridge | 21:45 |
| pleia2 | ok, once they have the post on the lubuntu blog we can cross-post to fridge | 21:46 |
| pleia2 | we'll have to review it to make sure it's of interest to the whole community, but I don't think that'll be a problem | 21:46 |
| pleia2 | (QA isn't just about one team, afterall :)) | 21:47 |
| bkerensa | pleia2: yeah thats what I suggested to SilverLion | 21:47 |
| pleia2 | SilverLion: you're welcome to talk in here rather than PM, we're all friends and then we don't need to repeat discussions | 21:48 |
| pleia2 | input from the whole team is good! | 21:48 |
| SilverLion | pleia2, will do next time ;) | 21:48 |

| akgraner | pleia2, thanks - your responses are awesome | 23:27 |
| SilverLion | morning akgraner | 23:32 |
| akgraner | SilverLion, morning | 23:32 |
| akgraner | pleia2, so what happened to the script when I ran it? | 23:35 |
| akgraner | Could you figure out what broke it? | 23:36 |
| pleia2 | your computers is broken :) | 23:36 |
| akgraner | hehe | 23:36 |
| pleia2 | I have no idea | 23:36 |
| akgraner | well I have a new one now | 23:36 |
| akgraner | I got a Sandy Bridge HEDT now :-) | 23:37 |
| akgraner | I better not break this one | 23:38 |
| akgraner | pleia2, want me to pull stats and updates on Sunday? | 23:39 |
| pleia2 | akgraner: ah yes, that would be very helpful :) | 23:39 |
| akgraner | ok put me down for that then | 23:39 |
| pleia2 | we got lucky this week, there were no April security or updates when I pulled them last week, so no need to check them against the last issue | 23:39 |
| akgraner | Pete is traveling soooo I'll have time :-( | 23:39 |
| pleia2 | aww | 23:40 |
| akgraner | and my kids now have their own social schedules that don't include moms | 23:40 |
| pleia2 | have we talked to the translations folks about our translation stats lately? they mean nothing to me and it seems odd that we're including 2 translation strings for AU and not for some other languages | 23:40 |
| akgraner | Damn teenagers :-) | 23:40 |
| pleia2 | lol | 23:40 |
| akgraner | pleia2, not lately - I asked dpm in Brussels to see what we could do better there | 23:41 |
| pleia2 | ok, I'll have a look at the script this weekend to see what it's actually doing and maybe give him another nudge | 23:41 |
| akgraner | I know it doesn't really mean a lot to many people - but not being one who translates anything (sadly) I am not sure how to do that better | 23:42 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 23:42 |
| bkerensa | akgraner: that chip is named after a place in Oregon | 23:43 |
| bkerensa | ;) | 23:43 |
| bkerensa | Sandy Bridge/ Sandy River = Sandy, Oregon | 23:44 |
| akgraner | but I've know we needed to do something different for a while - I just didn't know what would be helpful - so if you can nudge him next week - as we go head into the 12.04 release maybe by the week of the 26th we can figure out a new system | 23:44 |
| akgraner | bkerensa, yep | 23:44 |
| pleia2 | sounds good | 23:45 |
| pleia2 | thanks :) | 23:45 |
| bkerensa | they name a good portion of their chips these days after things related to Oregon... I have a relative who makes the wafers at Intel's R&D | 23:45 |
| akgraner | :-) | 23:45 |
| bkerensa | or DX1 as its known | 23:45 |
| bkerensa | :D | 23:45 |
| SilverLion | akgraner, thx very much for your work with our friend ;) | 23:55 |
| akgraner | thanks - I was just the messenger - but glad to help | 23:56 |
| JoseeAntonioR | SilverLion, akgraner: Thanks to you two :) | 23:56 |
| akgraner | JoseeAntonioR, I think this would be a great story - the perspective of UDS from your point of view and what your dad thinks. Will you talk it over with him? | 23:57 |
| akgraner | I'd be happy to get you questions in advance | 23:57 |
| JoseeAntonioR | well, I always speak with him about it, he's pretty up to date | 23:58 |
| JoseeAntonioR | and by that you mean an interview? | 23:58 |
| akgraner | JoseeAntonioR, yep | 23:59 |
