[10:01] inetpro: they say Debonairs Pizza is the leading pizza restaurant in Africa. http://www.debonairs.co.za/ [10:01] hm... [10:01] I wonder [10:15] lol lies [10:16] i dont like debonairs, stElmos tastes better. And if you are not only looking as TakeAway stellenbosch has al least 5 different rastaurants that are better [10:17] (pizza restaurants) [10:17] bakuman: what about Pretoria? [10:17] nee daar moet jy maar lewe van melk en heuning en brood [10:18] :-) [11:15] bakuman: I agree, I prefer St Elmo's... but Scooters' deep pan pizza is also very yummy [11:27] +1 debonairs is really teh suck [11:29] Maaz: for lunch is also $who: I prefer St Elmo's... but Scooters' deep pan pizza is also very yummy [11:29] inetpro: I'll remember that [11:31] Maaz: google St Elmo [11:31] inetpro: "St Elmo Steak House" http://www.stelmos.com/ :: "St. Elmo's fire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Elmo's_fire :: "St. Elmo's Coffee Pub" http://stelmoscoffeepub.com/ :: "St. Elmo" http://www.st-elmo.org/ :: "St. Erasmus(St. Elmo) - Saints & Angels - Catholic Online" http://www.catholic.org/saints/saint.php?saint_id=182 :: "St Elmo General Store" http://www.st-elmo.com/ :: "Saint Elmo - Colorado [11:32] Maaz: google St Elmo Pretoria [11:32] inetpro: "Recipe to get larger slice of pizza marke" http://www.btimes.co.za/98/0705/survey/survey.htm :: "Kallie Cornelius - South Africa | LinkedIn" http://za.linkedin.com/pub/kallie-cornelius/15/30b/103 :: "National Lottery" http://www.nationallottery.co.za/competitions/promo.asp :: "St Elmo's Woodfired Pizza" http://www.stelmos.co.za/ :: "Student Bargains - Welcome to University of Pretoria" http://www.tukkieslife.co.za/Bargains.aspx :: [11:32] hmm... [11:33] seems there's a business opportunity for someone [11:33] no St Elmo's in Pretoria [11:34] * inetpro likes the Student Bargains site [11:51] if you need to know where to find good junk food, ask the students [11:51] they are the authorities on the subject [11:51] not that good pizza is actually even junk food [11:51] but the crap they sell in the shops probably do qualify as such [11:54] Maaz: for lunch is also $who: Click on the day to view the bargains for the day http://www.tukkieslife.co.za/Bargains.aspx [11:54] inetpro: Got it [11:57] have you guys tried making pizza at home?

[18:29] we have all been slack maiatoday sorry [18:29] yip queery1985 [18:31] did everyone see the mail with the .ics file for the meetings? [18:31] can I continue to the last topic? [18:31] I was waiting to announce that [18:31] Yeah , but I don't know how to import it nuvolari [18:31] ek okie [18:32] Wikus just asked for instructions on how to import it, I have responded to the mailing list. [18:32] Thanx octoquad [18:32] no prob [18:32] google calendar maak dit easypeasy :P ek weet nie hoe Thunderbird werk nie [18:32] ah, thanks octoquad [18:32] yeah, google just picks it up and asks you what you want to do [18:32] we had an ubuntu-za calendar before if I remember [18:33] You can add google calender straight to thunder bird [18:33] it exists [18:33] ok, advancing to last topic [18:33] go nuvolari [18:33] i used to handle it, and it had a repeating thing on it but im not getting reminders anymore [18:33] Maaz: topic feedback on cd's [18:33] Current Topic: feedback on cd's [18:33] the cds are trapped in customs [18:34] eish [18:34] :O [18:34] I spoke to TNT a few days back [18:34] y? [18:34] we're not smoking anything! [18:34] lol [18:34] I hope [18:34] did he order the CD's cause that might be why they are stuck *TNT* [18:34] tnt post. stomme nederlanders. [18:34] apparently canonical put (in their eyes) a small invoice on it but the euro exchange rate [18:34] haha [18:34] lol [18:34] * tumbleweed waves [18:35] hi tumbleweed [18:35] euro is 10.8 today [18:35] hi tumbleweed :) welcome [18:35] the invoice is 319 rand and if it is over 300 rand it is an expensive parcel and needs to be taxed [18:35] its been climbing [18:35] so I am happy to pay the tax but I don't know how to make it go forward [18:35] blegh :-/ [18:35] how many CD's? [18:35] I will phone them tomorrow [18:35] I don't understand the cd's thing [18:35] the parcel is 9kgs [18:35] maiatoday: don't they send it back if you don't collect it within x days? [18:35] Why are we buying cd's ? [18:36] wow, that's quite a bit then [18:36] we aren't buying cds, mazal [18:36] we're not [18:36] Wow thats a few [18:36] we are an official loco so we get it free [18:36] if peeps want CD's in the durban area, they can ask me [18:36] but customs kick up more of a fuss if there's no "value" displayed on items [18:36] hmm [18:36] yeah but these are branded cds which official locos get [18:36] the fact is we're importing something which is worth something [18:36] nevermind that we didn't pay for it [18:37] customs act like windows users: it can't be free... [18:37] hahaha [18:37] hehe [18:37] lol nuvolari [18:37] hahaha [18:37] anyway, it's no use arguing, I just want to get them before quetzal is release [18:37] can't we say it's for a non-profit? [18:37] when I get them I'll divide them up and mail them to the centres again [18:38] One of those many "rules" I don't get [18:38] octoquad: I did explain that we don't sell them etc etc [18:38] how many do you get? [18:38] I don't know the exact amount octoquad but as I said the parcel is 9kgs [18:38] maiatoday: ah, then what's there problem lol [18:38] sorry their problem [18:38] I'm not going to take again, as I can't get them distributed here again :-/ [18:38] red tape [18:38] ok [18:39] nuvolari: are you from durbs? [18:39] octoquad: ye, ballito [18:39] I'll send a list on the mailing list and ask who wants me to send them [18:39] cool [18:39] I had a list of people, but I don't know if they still want cds [18:39] maaz agreed maiatoday will find out on the mailing list who wants cds once they get here [18:39] Agreed: maiatoday will find out on the mailing list who wants cds once they get here [18:40] I know William is quite active in distributing ubuntu [18:40] and repo's [18:40] I am happy to make up a few parcels but I would prefer to send one parcel to a central point in each area [18:40] since im traveling all over JHB freestate and pretoria I can also help distribute [18:40] that's the end of my story about the cds [18:40] thanksfor all the effort maiatoday [18:40] ok. any other last-minute topic? [18:41] i want cd's and i'm not on the mailinglist [18:41] yeah, thanks for your help maiatoday :) [18:41] I always give you cds Kerbero :) [18:41] I also don't mind distributing any linux distro, will have to be posted though. [18:41] :) [18:41] you can we set a time limit on sending emails to the list? [18:41] I have a qeustion [18:42] I think I have asked it before but can't remember the answer , think there was an issue [18:42] no problem Squirm, last time I sent a parcel to people, contact me on the mailing list and let me in know what area you can distribute [18:42] queery1985: what do you suggest? [18:42] maiatoday: eh, not part of the mailing list :P but I'm here most of the time [18:42] 11pm [18:42] hehe [18:42] maiatoday: Mooi River [18:43] kind of nowhere, but I'm there [18:43] no further topics? [18:43] Many people have slow or no internet and Ubuntu needs quite a few additional software and codecs to make it really good. Are we allowed to distribute iso's of Ubuntu that already have the multimedia additions and extra software installed ? [18:43] yeah , that one [18:44] yeah, I think we're allowed to do that in ZA, not? [18:44] Squirm, email me your info if you want me to send cds, I need a postal address and a name [18:44] we don't recognise software patents in ZA [18:45] (although people do file them) [18:45] Cos with 12.04 I came close to 1gig of additional stuff installled , and many people don't have the means to do that [18:45] I don't know about any of you guys, but basically doing an upgrade for me was useless using the CD/ISO as it still downloaded > 300MB [18:45] We should just make an apt-on-cd with updates and codecs and distribute with the original cd [18:45] mazal, you can distribute remastersys dvd's as well with everything [18:45] or Kilos idea [18:45] i still think canonical should start to send us blank branded cd's [18:45] I have a 4mb uncapped, unshaped line. so I don't mind distributing dvds either [18:45] then we can write them before distribution [18:45] Kerbero: I agree completely [18:46] Kerbero: awesome idea! [18:46] Kilos, that was what I was thinking [18:46] but I am not sure if they will [18:46] I have a Web africa account so free repo [18:46] Can we get the art work and brand them ourselves? [18:46] Kerbero: Canonical might see it as a security issue or perhaps loading linux mint on a Ubuntu CD [18:47] yeah [18:47] magespawn: Kerbero got quotes, we can brand ourselves but it is super expensive [18:47] jip [18:47] so we have to pay to give away cd's [18:47] interesting [18:47] :/ [18:47] Kerbero, are you going to sit and write 100 CDs with your PC? [18:47] lol [18:47] Ican you cover your costs? [18:48] maybe we should start a pledge list? [18:48] buy maia a coffee [18:48] at the ubuntu hour [18:48] I've always wanted to set up a toaster, I'm just not in the right area [18:48] the thing i most people who already use ubuntu are happy with an iso which they put on a disk themselves [18:49] I really think we should just distribute on the fly. Create 5 CD's carry them around with you or stash some in your car and laptop bag and if you meet peeps who are interested, give them a copy. [18:49] but people who have never used it like a branded cd [18:49] Squirm, maybe at the varsity in pmb [18:49] Kilos: that's still 40min away, besides I don't go there often [18:49] to pmb that is [18:49] ah [18:50] but theres nothing in mooiriver except cold [18:50] and some farmers [18:50] I think for next time I'll promote xubuntu [18:50] well, like I'm going there tomorrow, but getting a lift and it's tomorrow evening [18:50] And a nice river [18:50] maybe burn some disks for people interested around here [18:50] magespawn: no [18:50] magespawn: you DO NOT want to swim in that rivet [18:50] river [18:50] Ahh but iis it nice? [18:51] is Maaz still recording? [18:51] yip [18:51] yeah [18:51] yes [18:51] hehe [18:51] magespawn: brown and polluted != nice [18:51] we can probably give her the rest of the evening off, nuvolari?
