AlanBellyes12:58

emWell I was hoping that could be lifted13:01

IdleOneem, may I ask why you need access to ubuntu-uk?13:08
IdleOneafaik you are not in the UK and are not a part of the ubuntu UK loco13:09
AlanBellhi em, sorry, I got distracted by the secure boot announcements13:25
AlanBellI am a bit curious why you want to be in the -uk channel but that is fine, we have an assortment of visitors from all over the world who are very welcome13:25
AlanBellthe ban has been removed, I do hope your connection is nice and fixed13:26
emAlanBell: yeah I think so13:37
emAlanBell: I don't usually talk in -uk but I have quite a few friends in there, and especially now that this football stuff is going on13:37
AlanBellfair enough13:38
AlanBellnot much into the footie myself13:38
emIm not either. I just become interested during these big international tournaments13:38
IdleOneAlanBell, Italy is going to murder England on Sunday :)13:39
* IdleOne is predidcting a 4-0 win for Italy13:40
DJonesIdleOne: Only one try in the game?13:41
IdleOneI don't understand the question13:41
DJonesIdleOne: I don't watch football, my game is rugby league, so 4 points would be an unconverted try13:42
IdleOnelol13:42
IdleOneI don't know rugby at all.13:42
IdleOnethat is why I had no idea what you were on about13:42
AlanBellit is like American football, but less soft13:42
IdleOneoh, I know that much13:43
StaffponyUnfortunately some people call Handegg also Football, which can lead to confusion13:43
IdleOnejust don't know the rules or how they keep score13:43
DJonesYou sound like a perfect candidate to become a referee, not knowing the rules :)13:45
IdleOneheh13:46
IdleOneHow much does tat pay?13:46
DJonesNot sure, we have some full time ref's, so must be a fairly reasonable salary13:47
* IdleOne moves to rugbyland and applies for a job13:48
topyliIdleOne: beware, the players will be all over you teaching you the rules13:51
IdleOneI'm a fairly quick study13:52
IdleOneOnly need to head butt me once so I learn to duck13:52
topylismart!13:53
Unit193Tm_T: Congrats on getting the position now that it's official!22:11
ninnnuTm_T: Congrats22:33
genii-aroundI find it disappointing that only 48 of 117 voted.22:59
* genii-around slides Tm_T a congratulatory beverage23:00
pleia2it's much better than the last CC election (252 of 694)23:03
pleia2people hate voting :)23:04
TheLordOfTimepleia2:  some of us who wanted to vote were not allowed23:04
TheLordOfTimebecause of certain restrictions on whom could vote23:04
pleia2it's just the IRC Members team23:05
TheLordOfTimemhm23:05
TheLordOfTimethat's what i mean :P23:05
pleia2should be motivation to apply for the team, pretty much the only perk is voting rights23:05
genii-aroundTheLordOfTime: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Membership23:14
AlanBellTheLordOfTime: want to be in that group?23:34
AlanBellI added a few during the election for people who wanted to vote and were Ubuntu Members but not in that group23:35
IdleOneSo what is the criteria for being in that group?23:35
pleia2the wiki page genii linked explains, but it's easier if you're already an ubuntu member since you've already satisfied the "significant and sustained contributions to Ubuntu" part23:37
AlanBell1. be an Ubuntu Member23:37
AlanBell2. ask to be in the group23:38
AlanBellwhen the IRC Council awards membership you go directly into that group23:38
IdleOneThank you.23:38
IdleOneTheLordOfTime: ask and ye shall receive23:38
AlanBellask, and tell me your launchpad id23:39
