|---|---|---|
| pleia2 | yeah | 04:21 |

| pleia2 | I moved over a couple completed sections, but we have about 15 article we still need summaries on | 04:22 |
| JoseeAntonioR | basically, half of it is done | 04:23 |
| JoseeAntonioR | I'll see if I can write something | 04:23 |
| pleia2 | thanks :) | 04:23 |
| pleia2 | I copied over team meetings and added a link to the March 2012 team report too | 04:24 |
| JoseeAntonioR | great - would you like me to translate that bit of Spanish that is in the LoCo news? | 04:26 |

| pleia2 | good morning news friends | 16:58 |
| pleia2 | anyone around to write summaries? :) | 16:58 |
| JoseeAntonioR | pleia2: I think benonsoftware had some in his HDD, but he's at school right now | 17:01 |
| pleia2 | doh | 17:01 |
| JoseeAntonioR | sorry, he's sleeping :P | 17:01 |
| pleia2 | hey cprofitt | 18:37 |
| Unit193 | Howdy, pleia2. | 18:37 |
| pleia2 | Unit193: you should be our editor this week! | 18:38 |
| Unit193 | Hah. | 18:38 |
| pleia2 | you just read through the wiki and fix our grammar | 18:39 |
| Unit193 | Have I done that before, and do you have anyone else that can? (Making sure I'm your last person. :P ) | 18:42 |
| pleia2 | well, we haven't finished summaries yet | 18:44 |
| pleia2 | still need 10 summaries, I'm thinking we may just need to bulletpoint those this week because we don't have enough volunteers | 18:53 |
| JanC | pleia2: exactly what do you need? ;) | 18:55 |
| pleia2 | people to write 1-3 sentence summaries for the remaining articles on http://bit.ly/vDkJyf | 18:58 |
| pleia2 | and welcome JanC :) | 18:58 |
| JanC | sigh, google docs :P | 19:00 |
| pleia2 | you don't need to sign in | 19:01 |
| JanC | I need to temporarily allow JS & other stuff though :P | 19:02 |
| pleia2 | ah, yeah, that's the case for any collaboritive software I'm afraid :( | 19:02 |
| JanC | anyway, what exactly is needed? | 19:02 |
| pleia2 | so you'll open the doc and see something like: | 19:03 |
| pleia2 | === Ubuntu 12.04 LTS KVM Virtualization Battles 8.04.4, 10.04.4 LTS === | 19:03 |
| pleia2 | http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=ubuntu_1204_kvmhist&num=1 | 19:03 |
| JanC | pleia2: we used SVN 10 years ago in a non-technical non-profit :P | 19:03 |
| pleia2 | between those two lines, we need a summary | 19:03 |
| JanC | ah, okay | 19:03 |
| pleia2 | svn is not real time collaboration, we need that for this because we have people coming in all weekend to work on it | 19:03 |
| pleia2 | and not all of them are on IRC | 19:04 |
| JanC | we were on a ML mostly | 19:04 |
| pleia2 | yeah, we've got people scattered | 19:04 |
| JanC | anyway, let's see what i can do ;) | 19:05 |
| pleia2 | some on irc here, some on irc elsewhere (dragged in some volunteers from another network too), some on -news-team list, some I just email on saturday morning to remind them it's available | 19:05 |
| pleia2 | thanks :) | 19:05 |
| JoseeAntonioR | welcome to the team, JanC :) | 19:05 |
| pleia2 | you can look at a past issue if you want some idea of how we word things: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue260 | 19:06 |
| pleia2 | and if you do write any, make sure you add your name to the list of contributors at the bottom ;) | 19:06 |
| pleia2 | JoseeAntonioR: I moved over a couple other sections, I'll work on the stats now | 19:06 |
| JoseeAntonioR | great, I'll start translations right away | 19:06 |
| Unit193 | And I'm not typically a helper, just something to laugh at. | 19:07 |
| JanC | pleia2: it's hard to get a good description of that phoronix article ;) | 19:11 |
| pleia2 | JanC: a tip with phoronix is at the end of their articles they tend to write their own summaries, so if they did that I tend to draw summary writing inspiration from that | 19:13 |
| JanC | pleia2: except they are frequently wrong/inaccurate? :-/ | 19:14 |
| === jalcine is now known as JackyAlcine | ||
| JanC | I guess I should try to summarize other articles... | 19:14 |
| pleia2 | unfortunately we don't have the resources to fact check to the extent of running our own benchmarks | 19:15 |
| pleia2 | we write the summaries like "Phoronix reports..." | 19:15 |
| pleia2 | not "Here are the official benchmarks" | 19:15 |
| JoseeAntonioR | I have to go for lunch, and then for a meeting. I'll continue when I'm back | 19:15 |
| pleia2 | JoseeAntonioR: enjoy! | 19:16 |
| Unit193 | Though, I sure do trust theirs more than many others. Also, if you need me, about when would that be? | 19:16 |
| pleia2 | Unit193: this evening and tomorrow morning | 19:18 |
| Unit193 | Coolio. | 19:18 |
| JanC | Unit193: I'm sure phoronix tests are accurate for what they test (if you know all test parameters), but what they test is a quite artificial subset of what matters... ;) | 19:25 |
| Unit193 | Aye, I find liquorix kernel to be faster for what I do, but I figure how they compared Xfce/LXDE/Openbox/KDE/Unity/etc and Lubuntu/Xubuntu/Kubuntu/Ubuntu to be helpful. Two different uses. | 19:30 |
| MrChrisDruif | pleia2; xubuntu didn't have a meeting this week right? | 21:04 |
