=== ikt123 is now known as ikt
jaredikt: or at least I can pretend to know what I'm talking about11:43
jeaha11:44
jaredI'll see if I can find the page I wrote on the wiki11:44
jaredHuzzah! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/Projects/NewWebsiteLogin11:45
jaredikt:  ^ make sure you try that first11:46
jeai had forgotten about that page11:46
jaredI'm that boring I had enough time to write that11:47
jaredI was actually thinking about putting out posts to get people doing thigns again. For example tweeting "Do you like to tweet? @Ubuntu-AU needs YOU!" or something equally as disturbing.11:47
jaredDo a quick background check on their own personal accounts and see what happens11:48
jeathe tweeting is actually easy11:48
jaredIt's picking the content :)11:48
jeai just so far have used it to promote events though11:48
jaredI'd like to see a weekly (or even one or two retweets of community posts) if we could manage it11:49
jeathat would be possible11:49
jaredIt's not the sort of thing you want to get 30 tweets a day from11:50
jeano11:50
jeawould it be our content as much as possible, or is retweeting as you said alright?11:50
jaredBoth in a perfect world11:50
jeasure11:51
jaredAs long as it's relevant to Australian Ubuntu Users there's no reason you can't recycle someone else's work.11:51
jeawell, that could be the start11:52
jeathen as we get more content, we can start using it11:52
jaredYeah, things like meeting reminders and upcoming events we already have11:55
jaredDid you have any thoughts on a location for a Brisbane release party?11:55
jeaum, not especially11:55
jeamaybe away from a hotel would get people who can't go to a hotel (i seem to remember that being an issue in the past)11:56
jeabut i am not good with venues11:56
iktjared: ah thanks12:39
jaredikt: did it work?12:39
iktnegative12:41
ikti'm still clicking buttons12:41
jaredHm, at what stage did it fail?12:41
iktharr12:42
ikti didn't see 12:42
iktthe login box above it12:42
jaredHah, so it's working?12:42
iktUbuntu Login vs User login12:42
iktthe top image is broken on my recent posts12:42
jaredikt: if you want, I can add access for you to create pages12:44
jaredHm, I really don't know how to fix the image12:49
jaredI can see where the block is in the drupal theme, I just can't see where to change the image12:49
jaredActually, on the front page, it's workign12:49
jaredIf you go to other pages it stops12:49
jeaprobably using the wrong path format12:49
jaredIt's hosted by Canonical so we don't have physical access to it, if it's something I can change in the admin interface we can do it, if not, we need to see if it's worth an RT12:51
jeacan you change the block code?12:51
iktjared: not sure if I need, since you can easily do it, just wanted to post last nights meeting12:52
jaredikt: to be honest, the more that can do it the merrier, especially when it's people like you who've been around long enough to know right from wrong.12:53
ikttrue :)12:53
ikti have completely wasted a day on reddit12:54
jeathat is why i avoid reddit12:54
jaredOk, it's likely the logo has been fixed - cheers jea12:54
jeayep, fixed12:54
jaredikt: you should be able to write posts now, more than happy to be pinged to proof read any you don't want to publish directly.12:54
jaredAs long as it's Loco related feel free to post news.12:55
iktis sending pm on ubu forums or email best? or I think forums will send you an email when I send you a pm12:55
jaredMeetings, events, forum happenings, etc :) It's basically a team blog as opposed to an individual's blog12:55
jaredikt: either works, the forum emails me12:55
iktawesome :D12:56
jaredI've got no issues giving access to people who've shown they're reliable and hang around more than 5 minutes.12:57
jaredAlrighty, on that note I have to run, good to see people around a bit lately though :)13:04
iktnights jared :)13:05
