[02:21] <phoenixcoder> hello?
[02:21] <sarnold> hey phoenixcoder :)
[02:21] <phoenixcoder> hey sarnold, just finished setting up my irc client so taking it for a test run.
[02:22] <sarnold> phoenixcoder: oh, nice :)
[02:22] <phoenixcoder> I guess it's working since you can see this, :-)
[02:22] <sarnold> indeed!
[02:23] <sarnold> if you haven't set up certfp yet, that might be a nice next step: http://freenode.net/certfp/ and  http://www.oftc.net/NickServ/CertFP/
[02:24] <phoenixcoder> okay, I'll see what I can do with that.
[02:26] <phoenixcoder> So what is this channel about?  The ubuntu channel was a bit vague about what's done here.
[02:26] <phoenixcoder> ubuntu site*
[02:27] <sarnold> coordination among packagers, mostly; bug discussion, divvying up work
[02:27] <phoenixcoder> Is it for community members looking to get involved too?
[02:28] <sarnold> it sure is :)
[02:29] <Noskcaj> What is it you'd like to help with?
[02:29] <sarnold> though at the moment it'll be quiet for a while -- europe is asleep, north america is in the pub, and apac is waking up soon, but it'll be saturday for them when they do :)
[02:29] <sarnold> oh hey Noskcaj :) just the man
[02:29]  * sarnold -> dinner :)
[02:30] <phoenixcoder> That is great (!).
[02:30] <phoenixcoder> Noskcaj, I thought I'd observe for a while and see what I can help with.
[02:30] <phoenixcoder> I just got done learning about OS development so I am just starting out.
[02:31] <Noskcaj> Are there any particular packages you're interested in or skills you have?
[02:31] <Noskcaj> Our work is mostly split into: Quality Assurance, Packaging, Bug triage, Bug fixing, Translation, and support
[02:32] <phoenixcoder> No packages of interest yet.  Skills-wise; what would count as a skill for you?
[02:33] <Noskcaj> Know multiple languages, know programming languages, lot's of experience in a particular area.
[02:33] <Noskcaj> But you'll learn a lot, trust me
[02:34] <phoenixcoder> In that case, I know C, Java, C++, and Python.  That's in order of strengths from left-to-right.
[02:35] <Noskcaj> Then you will do very well.
[02:35] <phoenixcoder> I hope to learn a lot.
[02:35] <phoenixcoder> That's the exciting part.
[02:35] <Noskcaj> If i may ask, what country are you from?
[02:35] <phoenixcoder> US, East Coast
[02:35] <Noskcaj> ok, so nowhere near me
[02:35] <phoenixcoder> And you?
[02:35] <Noskcaj> Australia
[02:36] <phoenixcoder> Half a world away.
[02:36] <phoenixcoder> :)
[02:36] <Noskcaj> yeah
[02:36] <Noskcaj> If you'd like to start with some bug fixing, some easy (ish) ones can be found at https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts
[02:37] <Noskcaj> It's a meta-project for finding simple bugs
[02:38] <phoenixcoder> Okay, and what do you mean exactly by a meta-project?
[02:38] <Noskcaj> It's not a real program or code, it just is something you make bugs affect if they are easy fixes
[02:38] <Noskcaj> And like i said above, if there's a program you use a lot or find interesting, say so.
[02:39] <phoenixcoder> Okay, sure.  What packages fall into this group's domain?
[02:40] <Noskcaj> ubuntu-devel is where everyone is. Any package is relevant here.
[02:41] <Noskcaj> things like #kubuntu-devel or #ubuntu-quality are where you'll find more specific things
[02:50] <phoenixcoder> Noskcaj and sarnold, thank you for your help; before I get disconnected or logoff.
[03:10] <Noskcaj> phoenixcoder, No problem. It's always good to see someone new join
[12:15] <bluesabre> seb128: I've uploaded a fresh debdiff to https://launchpad.net/bugs/1207493 on behalf of xubuntu-team
[12:16] <bluesabre> Please take a moment to review it :)
[23:11] <Logan_> Noskcaj: > Syncable, requestsync not working
[23:11] <Logan_> Lemme guess who that was. :P
[23:11] <Noskcaj> :)
[23:12] <Noskcaj> Wasn't fetching changelogs, and my internet is dropping out more regularly than normal
[23:15] <Noskcaj> also, mia is syncable, i just don'thave a spare two hours to build it (tried last night)
[23:34] <Noskcaj> wow, i only have one package on the sponsoring queue
[23:34]  * Noskcaj begins fixing that
[23:46] <Noskcaj> Logan_, Can you take a look at syncing rawstudio? provided libgphoto2-dev is acceptable, we should be able to sync.
