paulproteusHey pleia2, are there evening events at UDS today?02:45
paulproteus(wiretapped, are you going to UDS?) My friend geofft said there was something 7p-9pm but I don't seem  to find info about it on the web02:45
paulproteusOh hi geofft02:45
paulproteusMaybe you'll answer here.02:45
* paulproteus feels silly not knowing where the party is.02:47
akkThey sure don't make it obvious where to look for such things.02:47
akkI don't see anything in the schedule or on "other events", but I know there are some parties some nights and I don't see any listed.02:48
paulproteusIn other news, pleia2's amazing page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/UDS-Q is super clear. Three chears for that!02:53
paulproteusEr, cheers.02:53
paulproteusGosh.02:53
akkIt is super-clear, but I think it's just unsanctioned events ... e.g. I see no mention of a google party but I know there's supposed to be one.02:55
paulproteushttp://uds.ubuntu.com/event/ !02:56
paulproteusThere we are, evening events.02:56
paulproteusGood news is now, I know where the party is.02:59
paulproteusBad news for them is, I'll go join them!! (;02:59
itnet7_udsakk: if you're already here at uds the ticket for the google party is found within the swag bag04:54

DonkeyHoteithere's a google party?06:42
pleia2tomorrow night google is sponsoring: http://uds.ubuntu.com/event/06:48
pleia2"Run away to the circus with Google!"06:48
DonkeyHoteiah06:48
pleia2there are food and drink tickets in your conference bag06:48
DonkeyHoteii saw those06:48
DonkeyHoteiat first i thought they were for tonight06:48
DonkeyHoteii never did find anyone with an irc nick longer than 15, but apparently eps did, and it didn't occur to me to ask who06:49
guaSo there's going to be a keysigning party at UDS, and not having made a key before, I'm not sure what expiry time I should set, if any. What's the general practice with that? Just set it to never expire then send out a revocation if it's ever compromised?07:35
gua(btw feel free to answer if I'm gone, I'll check the logs)07:35
DonkeyHoteiidk whether they might not like the fact that my key is DSA instead of RSA07:36
DonkeyHotei(don't make new DSA keys, folks)07:36
guaheh07:37
guaNever is a long time. I'm leaning towards 5 or 10 years.07:44
DonkeyHoteii set mine to a little while, and then i set it to never07:46
DonkeyHoteirevocation certs are standard07:47
guaDonkeyHotei: Can you do a thing where you make a new key, then sign the new key with the old key, and so that makes it so everyone that signed your old key basically signed your new key?07:48
bkerensagnight all07:58
geofftgua: You can change the expiration on your key later (provided it hasn't expired and you still have the private key)14:35
geofftgua: so I would set it to something like a year if you're still figuring out where a secure place to keep your key is14:36
geofftgua: crap. having said that I realized my key expired in January14:37
geofftso maybe don't follow my advice :)14:37
geofft5-10 years should be fine though.14:38
* DonkeyHotei changed his from a year or something to infinite, as previously stated14:43
geofftWhere do we get one of those nifty "I'm a local" badges?15:59
Faqtotumi doubt there are any more; ask pleia216:00
pleia2sorry, ran out very early yesterday (there were only 15 of them)16:00
geofftaw :(16:02
paulproteusgeofft: Yo16:03
geofftpaulproteus: *waves* Did you make it to the thing last night? My phone died midday so I missed your texts16:06
paulproteusYeah, totally did. It was grand. You're at UDS now? I think I'll head in around noon.16:06
geofftI'm in the BART tunnel :(16:06
paulproteusBTW, has anyone been to the Metreon's food court? It seems like a good place to host a hackathon, if the power and wifi actually work.16:45
paulproteushttp://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2012/02/02/BUHA1N1UES.DTL16:45
pleia2I go there often16:46
Faqtotumdid that with sf2600 years ago16:46
pleia2there is always a lot of space, but you might need to get permission because they do have security and stuff, may not be cool to just bring in 50 people with laptops and camp out :)16:46
paulproteusI'm thinking 4-8 people tops for this one.16:47
paulproteusPower and wifi seem to actually work, though, in your experience?16:47
paulproteusI'm quite excited by the idea of eating at La Boulange and having power and wifi.16:48
paulproteusAnd to my glee there is a Boulange there in the Metreon. (-:16:48
pleia2I haven't used the power, but the wifi tends to be good16:48
akkpaulproteus: I remember it as being very noisy.16:48
paulproteusMmm, even on a Sunday?16:48
Faqtotumyou'd need to bring power strips, no question16:49
paulproteusGood to know + can do that16:49

geofftand my PGP key is no longer expired.17:17
geofftI'm not really sure whether I'm comfortable with having been able to do that...17:19

=== DrStrangelove is now known as Faqtotum
yantrashilpihello all. have a question about UDS. Is there anyway to view or listen to the "plenary" sessions live? I didn't see any links on the ubuntu summit website.20:24
paulproteuspleia2: Nice talk! (:21:46
pleia2paulproteus: thanks :)21:46
Faqtotumi'm more encouraged by ubuntu-studio21:48
Faqtotumas for edubuntu, a thought: cloud-based ltsp21:49
Faqtotummight be viable now21:49
Faqtotumnice to see lubuntu mature, too21:49
paulproteusOf the Ubuntu contributors here, are you excited by Ubuntu Accomplishments?21:51
paulproteusI find it interesting that all the derivatives said "We need more people!!" but didn't mention Accomplishments.21:52
pleia2I think it's geared toward newer contributors who are motivated by things like that (the current contributors obviously have their own motivations)21:52
pleia2we'll see how it goes for Ubuntu before we spend the dev time to add accomplishments ;)21:53
paulproteus(-:21:54
brodergamification is definitely a thing, and is an effective motivator until you get bored of it21:55
grantbow+121:56
broderi...didn't expect him to actually finish that on time21:58
paulproteusYeah I'm kind of surprised as well.21:59
paulproteusBy the way, while I'm here on IRC... if anyone is willing to help be a reviewer for http://openhatch.org/missions/ we could really use that.22:03
paulproteusI and other OpenHatch people are making changes to those teaching tools, and we could use people to look over the changes we're making and ensure they are truly improvements.22:04
paulproteusIf you want to learn more, do join in #openhatch ; I'll stop advertising here for now (:22:05
