mhall119 | better read the fine print before agreeing | 00:22 |

bkerensa | mhall119: what fine print? | 00:28 |
mhall119 | I'm assuming SPI is offering to take projects under their 501c3 umbrella | 00:33 |
bkerensa | mhall119: thats what they do yes | 00:38 |
bkerensa | mhall119: we have quite a number of large projects under the SPI umbrella already | 00:39 |
mhall119 | and for a lot of projects it works | 00:39 |
mhall119 | but it also means you can't accept donations directly anymore | 00:40 |
bkerensa | sure | 00:40 |
bkerensa | and currently none of the flavors except Kubuntu can | 00:40 |
mhall119 | they offered it to me years ago, but I declined for that reason | 00:40 |
bkerensa | mhall119: for the kid linux thing you were doing? | 00:41 |
bkerensa | Forgot what it was called | 00:41 |
mhall119 | Qimo, and yes | 00:41 |
bkerensa | mhall119: why did you stop working on that? It seemed like an awesome project | 00:41 |
bkerensa | Kids need Linux :) | 00:41 |
mhall119 | because the UI was designed around large, easy to find buttons | 00:42 |
mhall119 | and now Unity provides exactly that | 00:42 |
mhall119 | and more | 00:42 |
mhall119 | so does Gnome Shell for that matter | 00:42 |
mhall119 | so Qimo wouldn't be anything but a meta-package of games and wallpapers installed by default | 00:43 |
mhall119 | both of which are still in the Ubuntu archives, as far as I know | 00:43 |
