[15:55] <fego> thanks ,
[15:56] <DJones> k1l_: I bet you've just highlighted Idle one with the "idleing" :)
[15:56] <k1l_> hehe
[15:57] <k1l_> "oopsie" :)
[16:00] <IdleOne> DJones: I have a smart highlight list :P
[16:02] <fego> idle1
[17:40] <Tm_T> IdleOne: hmh?
[17:41] <IdleOne> Tm_T: Don't you worry your pretty little head. AlanBell took care of it :)
[17:41] <Tm_T> IdleOne: well, see my activity 10 hours ago? (:
[17:42] <IdleOne> I did.
[17:44] <Tm_T> but but
[17:44]  * Tm_T goes eating
[17:45]  * IdleOne huggles Tm_T 
[17:46] <n0rman> Can I manage a meeting with lubotu1?
[17:48] <IdleOne> nope, you can use meetingology
[17:48] <IdleOne> chat with AlanBell if you need it in a specific channel or you can check the schedule for #ubuntu-meeting
[17:52] <n0rman> IdleOne: we want to start making irc meetings in the Nicaraguan LoCo Team, and I think having a bot for our meetings would be great :)
[17:53] <IdleOne> n0rman: in that case you can talk to AlanBell about having meetingology join your loco channel.
[17:54] <n0rman> AlanBell: ^^ :)
[17:55] <IdleOne> n0rman: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology Some helpful info
[17:55] <n0rman> IdleOne: thanks again!
[17:56] <IdleOne> welcome
[18:08] <funkyHat> Now then
[18:56] <AlanBell> n0rman: what is the channel name?
[19:14] <JoseeAntonioR> IRCC: I'd like to know if I can create #ubuntu-q&a, so I can chat with people about the research I'll be having about the localized Q&A systems
[19:15] <IdleOne> there already is a #ubuntu-qa no?
[19:16] <AlanBell> is that valid?
[19:16] <AlanBell> no, that is Qatar
[19:16] <IdleOne> ah, #ubuntu-quality
[19:17] <IdleOne> JoseeAntonioR: #ubuntu-quality won't do for your needs?
[19:18] <JoseeAntonioR> that is QA, this is Q&A (note the & in the middle)
[19:18] <AlanBell> indeed
[19:18] <AlanBell> is that a good idea in a channel name?
[19:18] <JoseeAntonioR> it works, just tested
[19:18] <IdleOne> I'm sorry I don't understand the difference :)
[19:19] <JoseeAntonioR> IdleOne: one is Quality Assurance, the other Question & Answer
[19:19] <IdleOne> oh
[19:19] <AlanBell> yeah, I would like some comment from other people as to whether it is a good idea, there might be other things that break
[19:19] <IdleOne> hehe
[19:19] <AlanBell> webchat for a start might break
[19:19] <JoseeAntonioR> right, and what about #ubuntu-question?
[19:19] <IdleOne> maybe #ubuntu-q-n-a ?
[19:20] <JoseeAntonioR> or just qna
[19:20] <IdleOne> that would do also
[19:21] <JoseeAntonioR> AlanBell: agree with qna?
[19:21] <AlanBell> I haven't disagreed with q&a yet :)
[19:21] <AlanBell> just want more people to have a chance to say why an ampersand is a good/bad idea
[19:21] <IdleOne> I think your concern with & is valid though
[19:22] <JoseeAntonioR> yes, html may break
[19:24] <Flannel> Works fine in freenode's webchat.
[19:25] <JoseeAntonioR> Flannel: but what about html links?
[19:25] <AlanBell> ok, I wonder if staff or Pici or jussi have an opinion on & in a channel name
[19:27] <JoseeAntonioR> hmm, if linked to webchat with http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=ubuntu-q&a, it'll only display #ubuntu-q as the channel
[19:29] <jussi> My opinion is: feel free to create any channel that is directly related to ubuntu development or support and doesnt duplicate another channel.
[19:29] <jussi> JoseeAntonioR: #ubuntu-q+a
[19:31] <IdleOne> the + means people will typo =
[19:31] <IdleOne> IMHO qna is least likely to cause issues
[19:31] <AlanBell> + is fine, we have #ubuntu+*
[19:32] <IdleOne> only 1
[19:32] <IdleOne> :P see what I did there
[19:32] <AlanBell> yeah, made an error :)
[19:32] <AlanBell> we have #ubuntu+1-quality or something I think
[19:33] <IdleOne> we have too many channels to keep up with
[19:33] <AlanBell> #ubuntu+1-maint
[19:33] <IdleOne> for me*
[19:33] <AlanBell> alis is handy
[19:34] <AlanBell> anyhow, I think given that we have one demonstrable but fairly minor problem with the & in the name I would prefer #ubuntu-q+a to #ubuntu-q&a
[19:36] <JoseeAntonioR> then, I'll go for #ubuntu-q+a
[19:50] <DJones> Is this a case where -discuss could be used?
[19:54] <n0rman> AlanBell: is #ubuntu-ni
[20:12] <AlanBell> n0rman: done
[20:17] <n0rman> AlanBell: thank you :)
