GatoLoko | hi | 16:58 |
GatoLoko | the current weekly news has a misleading report about ubuntu being installed on 220000 pc in andalusia | 16:59 |
GatoLoko | first thing first, that was two years ago, so not news | 16:59 |
GatoLoko | second thing, it isn't ubuntu, but guadalinex | 17:00 |
holstein | GatoLoko: im not sure if there are bug reports filed against articles, but if you'd like to get envloved with the team, i can get you some information | 17:00 |
holstein | could have been a story that got snuck in from being mentioned somewhere, and its challenging to review *everything* | 17:01 |
holstein | but, if you'd like, the process is quite open and transparent | 17:01 |
GatoLoko | i don't have enough time to participate regularly, but i read it every time and this called my atention | 17:01 |
GatoLoko | because i'm from andalusia and know about guadalinex and it's implantation on schools and laptops given to students | 17:02 |
holstein | GatoLoko: cool... im sure pleia2 will see your message, though you can email the list if you'd like to be more specific.. or just go ahead and craft a "retraction" and we will get it in the line up for next time | 17:03 |
GatoLoko | it's not very important, but the thing is it happened two years ago, and wasn't ubuntu | 17:04 |
holstein | GatoLoko: cool.. you can just get a retraction going on a news outlet and it will get covered, or we could just included it in the next issue | 17:05 |
GatoLoko | well, you said somebody will read this, so he can do whatever feels appropriate in this cases | 17:07 |
holstein | GatoLoko: i would email the list if its something you feel strongly about | 17:08 |
GatoLoko | i don't think it's very important, but since i knew it was mistaken i felt maybe somebody else may want to know | 17:09 |
holstein | sure.. maybe the news outlet that printed it | 17:10 |
holstein | maybe they can fix a retration and we can cover that | 17:10 |
GatoLoko | i can't find the original article right now, but here you can see an article dated 2010 with almost the same info (including mistaking guadalinex for ubuntu): http://us.generation-nt.com/answer/news-canonical-says-ubuntu-gnu-linux-deployed-220-000-desktops-andalusia-schools-help-198892391.html | 17:15 |
pleia2 | huh, that's interesting, there were probably about 6 articles highlighting i tlast week | 17:51 |
pleia2 | the one that ended up in UWN was just one of them | 17:51 |
pleia2 | aha, it became news last week because the case study for it came out: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/casestudies/Andalusia-deploys-220000-Ubuntu-desktops-in-schools-throughout-the-region | 17:53 |
pleia2 | or maybe someone just found the case study again :) | 17:54 |
pleia2 | the article we included did mention that it was Guadalinex EDU though, and even our summary just said it was Ubuntu-based (it is) | 17:55 |
pleia2 | anyway, thanks for letting us know it's an older report :) | 17:56 |
