GatoLokothe current weekly news has a misleading report about ubuntu being installed on 220000 pc in andalusia16:59
GatoLokofirst thing first, that was two years ago, so not news16:59
GatoLokosecond thing, it isn't ubuntu, but guadalinex17:00
holsteinGatoLoko: 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 information17:00
holsteincould have been a story that got snuck in from being mentioned somewhere, and its challenging to review *everything*17:01
holsteinbut, if you'd like, the process is quite open and transparent17:01
GatoLokoi don't have enough time to participate regularly, but i read it every time and this called my atention17:01
GatoLokobecause i'm from andalusia and know about guadalinex and it's implantation on schools and laptops given to students17:02
holsteinGatoLoko: 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 time17:03
GatoLokoit's not very important, but the thing is it happened two years ago, and wasn't ubuntu17:04
holsteinGatoLoko: 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 issue17:05
GatoLokowell, you said somebody will read this, so he can do whatever feels appropriate in this cases17:07
holsteinGatoLoko: i would email the list if its something you feel strongly about17:08
GatoLokoi don't think it's very important, but since i knew it was mistaken i felt maybe somebody else may want to know17:09
holsteinsure.. maybe the news outlet that printed it17:10
holsteinmaybe they can fix a retration and we can cover that17:10
GatoLokoi 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.html17:15
pleia2huh, that's interesting, there were probably about 6 articles highlighting i tlast week17:51
pleia2the one that ended up in UWN was just one of them17:51
pleia2aha, 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-region17:53
pleia2or maybe someone just found the case study again :)17:54
pleia2the 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
pleia2anyway, thanks for letting us know it's an older report :)17:56
