pleia2 | wow, summaries are done :) | 03:20 |
---|---|---|
JoseeAntonioR | pleia2: great! | 03:20 |
JoseeAntonioR | I'll start translating in a few hours | 03:20 |
pleia2 | not ready for that yet | 03:21 |
JoseeAntonioR | when reviewing is done :P | 03:21 |
pleia2 | we had a lot of new folks this week so I'll need to do a fair amount of editorial review tomorrow morning before I move to the wiki | 03:21 |
pleia2 | but I should be able to get the email off to editors by 20:00 UTC or so | 03:21 |
JoseeAntonioR | great, just tell me when it's the moment to | 03:21 |
pleia2 | will do :) | 03:22 |
JoseeAntonioR | pleia2: Still with the idea of #u-learning? | 04:01 |
philipballew_ | welcome back cuz!!! | 04:39 |
pleia2 | JoseeAntonioR: yeah, I've been lurking on the idea for years :) won't let go so easy | 05:27 |
JoseeAntonioR | pleia2: I'll start taking some screenshots for the installation manual :) | 05:28 |
pleia2 | JoseeAntonioR: could you update this while you're at it? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall | 06:00 |
JoseeAntonioR | pleia2: of course! | 06:00 |
pleia2 | I figure that will be the data sheet we use for the class anyway | 06:01 |
JoseeAntonioR | ok - I'll finish with the installation screenshots and then I'll go for it | 06:02 |
pleia2 | I don't actually know how these edits are coordinated, it looks like this page is done for 10.04, so maybe they update it for LTS releases | 06:04 |
JoseeAntonioR | then, it's time to edit it | 06:04 |
* pleia2 fires off a quick email to confirm protocol for edits | 06:05 | |
pleia2 | I mean, it's a wiki, I just want to make sure we don't step on toes :) | 06:05 |
JoseeAntonioR | exactly - just tell me when you get an answer | 06:05 |
JoseeAntonioR | pleia2: I've changed some things as the download link, and added an MD5SUM and burn as slowly as possible to the steps | 06:11 |
JoseeAntonioR | people are always complaining about them | 06:11 |
* pleia2 nods | 06:12 | |
pleia2 | ok, email off | 06:14 |
JoseeAntonioR | :) | 06:14 |
pleia2 | heading off for the evening, have a good night :) | 06:16 |
JoseeAntonioR | you too! :) | 06:17 |
s-lion | morning | 07:36 |

pleia2 | running out for a couple hours, when I get back I'll do some review of the doc and then start moving stuff to the wiki | 15:51 |
* pleia2 returns and works on review | 18:37 | |
* bkerensa heads to downtown for release party | 18:43 | |
bkerensa | :D | 18:43 |
bkerensa | http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-us-or/1609/detail/ (48 RSVP's and growing) | 18:43 |
bkerensa | :D | 18:43 |
pleia2 | have fun :) | 18:44 |
* philipballew wonders how bkerensa does it | 18:45 | |
Silverlion | hey folks | 19:35 |
JoseeAntonioR | Hi, Silverlion! | 19:36 |
pleia2 | ok, that took longer than I thought :) | 20:15 |
pleia2 | MrChrisDruif: can you have a peek at the email from phill when you have a chance? if it's all correct just a thumbs up is fine :) | 21:08 |
MrChrisDruif | I've seen it, been working | 21:09 |
pleia2 | JoseeAntonioR: all stats and security stuff is in and I've sent a note off to editors so hopefully they'll be popping in soon to do review | 21:09 |
* nlsthzn got a bonus two extra nights to work... so sorry... | 21:10 | |
MrChrisDruif | I've been discussing something about it in a thread over @ the docs-mailing list about this subject | 21:10 |
MrChrisDruif | I made a suggestion, but no confirmation afair | 21:10 |
pleia2 | MrChrisDruif: the holistic approach thread? | 21:11 |
MrChrisDruif | Yes | 21:11 |
pleia2 | yeah, I thought that was about changing approach, so I was just hoping for whatever are "current best practices" | 21:11 |
pleia2 | we can adjust later as needed, it's just currently a bit unclear how to help | 21:13 |
MrChrisDruif | I think making pages holistic *is what we should do*, but then again information about how stuff used be done might get lost in the transition | 21:14 |
MrChrisDruif | I think if you move stuff release specific down on the page and make it as holistic as possible is a good way to go for now | 21:14 |
pleia2 | makes pages like the one for the installer huge and take a while to load due to all the images | 21:15 |
MrChrisDruif | Got a link? | 21:16 |
pleia2 | anyway, I guess this isn't the place for that discussion, I just need some kind of answer at some point so we can help contribute back instead of rewriting everything in a vaccuum (we don't want to be another ubuntu manual) | 21:16 |
pleia2 | the one in the email, let me grab it | 21:16 |
pleia2 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall | 21:16 |
pleia2 | phill said to copy it to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall_10.04 and update it for 12.04 | 21:17 |
MrChrisDruif | Yeah, but in the discussion it was suggested to move them to /<release>/<pagename> so that would make it https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidLynx/GraphicalInstall | 21:21 |
MrChrisDruif | I'm acquiring in #ubuntu-doc about this right now | 21:22 |
pleia2 | sorry, I read the thread, I was just trying to figure out what we do *now*, not what proposals are happening | 21:23 |
pleia2 | we can wait to help until things are decided if it'll be soon | 21:23 |
MrChrisDruif | Here's my latest suggestion, but no one has picked it up: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-doc/2012-April/016589.html | 21:24 |
pleia2 | I know, as I've said, I've read it | 21:24 |
pleia2 | so should we just wait to contribute until a decision is made? | 21:25 |
MrChrisDruif | I'm hesitant to call this one on my one (I've only just become member of the docs team) | 21:28 |
MrChrisDruif | own* | 21:29 |
pleia2 | ok | 21:29 |
pleia2 | bkerensa: ^^ for reference, this is why everyone complains about trying to contribute to -docs | 21:30 |
MrChrisDruif | O_O | 21:30 |
pleia2 | MrChrisDruif: nothing against you of course :) it's just like this every time I try to help | 21:30 |
pleia2 | I worked with jim campbell one UDS to try to help with the "getting involved" docs, but it never went anywhere | 21:31 |
MrChrisDruif | If it was just me, I'd say "group them all under one happy release page and make the new one holistic" | 21:31 |
pleia2 | everyone complains that people contribute to ubuntu-manual, but contributing to ubuntu-docs is hard :( | 21:31 |
pleia2 | I dunno, since the official help.ubuntu.com docs are split between versions that does make a fair amount of sense, but I get that some stuff doesn't change between releases | 21:32 |
pleia2 | anyway, I don't want to actually get involved in docs policy :) I'm just an end user contributor who wants to help and doesn't know how | 21:33 |
JoseeAntonioR | pleia2: great, moving on | 22:52 |
