| belkinsa | Is anyone having a hard time connecting to the Ubuntu wiki? | 15:04 |
|---|---|---|
| dsmythies | Note just now, but over the last few days somtimes it seems to take forever. | 15:06 |
| belkinsa | Thanks. I need those bot commands. | 15:07 |
| dsmythies | Ya, I'm hoping for help with that, which is why I was looking for jose over on that other IRC | 15:08 |
| belkinsa | Same, it's the first time that I'm teaching a class. | 15:09 |
| dsmythies | me too. | 15:09 |
| dsmythies | godbyk: Are you around? After all of our IRC yesterday, I had an idea. | 15:10 |
| belkinsa | Well, this sucks. If users can not connect to the wiki then how will they play around while I teach the class? | 15:17 |
| dsmythies | belkinsa: I have no problem with wiki access at the moment. (and I printed the class bot stuff, after you remined me.) | 15:20 |
| knome | oh, doc day | 15:20 |
| belkinsa | Smart move. | 15:21 |
| knome | i can access the wiki | 15:22 |
| belkinsa | No luck here still. | 15:22 |
| knome | seems to be pretty snappy for me | 15:23 |
| knome | belkinsa, did you have a sandbox-page set up for people to edit, or did you have something else in mind? | 15:24 |
| belkinsa | Didn't think of that. | 15:25 |
| * belkinsa facepalms | 15:25 | |
| knome | also remember that only one people can actually *edit* a page at the same time | 15:25 |
| knome | so you might want a sandbox page with users creating subpages into it | 15:25 |
| knome | though if you want some example content... | 15:25 |
| belkinsa | Okay, if the wiki connects for me. | 15:26 |
| belkinsa | ... | 15:26 |
| belkinsa | This is not my day. | 15:26 |
| belkinsa | Are you going around when I teach my class, knome? | 15:28 |
| knome | umm, tbh, i don't know | 15:28 |
| knome | possibly | 15:28 |
| belkinsa | Because I'm having issues connecting. | 15:29 |
| belkinsa | stupid ice storm | 15:29 |
| knome | surely there are other people around who can help | 15:29 |
| belkinsa | Good point. | 15:29 |
| knome | i can help as well if i'm around. | 15:44 |
| godbyk | dsmythies: What was your idea? | 16:26 |
| godbyk | Sorry I'm late, everyone. | 16:26 |
| dsmythies | godbyk: Upon further reflection, it wasn't such a gret idea after all. | 16:29 |
| godbyk | dsmythies: Ah, rats! | 16:29 |
| dsmythies | godbyk: It was just a way of moving my package install command way up in the schedule, but making it seem as though you and I planned it rather than the "Oh my goodenss" that it was. I have asked Lyz, to ask people to execurte the command in the background at the end of her session. | 16:34 |
| godbyk | dsmythies: Ah, gotcha. | 16:34 |
| godbyk | dsmythies: I'm planning on starting out by talking about how people can get started with docs in kind of a general way. But if I have time toward the end, I'll try to walk them through the ssh-keygen and bzr stuff. We'll see how it goes. | 16:35 |
| dsmythies | godbyk: I have notes on the bzr and ssh key stuff, just in case I need them. You are welcome to them: http://www.smythies.com/~doug/linux/ubuntu-docs/temp-classroom/class_script_alt.txt | 16:37 |
| godbyk | dsmythies: Thanks! | 16:37 |
| godbyk | Cookies for breakfast are okay when you're an adult, right? | 16:54 |
| pleia2 | yep | 16:56 |
| * knome just had semlor... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semla | 17:03 | |
| pleia2 | last night I had alfajores that jose brought me from peru | 17:04 |
| pleia2 | they were tastey :d | 17:04 |
| knome | hehe | 17:05 |
| godbyk | I have to go shovel a bunch of snow, but I'll be back in a bit. | 18:04 |
| godbyk | Back now. There's slightly less snow on my sidewalks now. | 18:46 |
| GunnarHj | Good evening! | 22:44 |
| belkinsa | Hey there, GunnarHj. | 22:44 |
| GunnarHj | Hi belkinsa | 22:44 |
| GunnarHj | Just reviewed the irc-log from today's event. | 22:45 |
| belkinsa | I just going to ask if you were there. | 22:45 |
| GunnarHj | Noticed two persons who probably should be contacted. | 22:45 |
| GunnarHj | https://launchpad.net/~jose | 22:45 |
| GunnarHj | https://launchpad.net/~jsjgruber | 22:45 |
| GunnarHj | belkinsa: No, had not the opportunity to be there at the time. | 22:46 |
| belkinsa | But you were lurking | 22:47 |
| belkinsa | And why those two need to be contacted? | 22:47 |
| GunnarHj | belkinsa: Only the last part. ;-) | 22:47 |
| belkinsa | Ah, I have join/part messages off. | 22:47 |
| GunnarHj | belkinsa: Because they showed an interest in the docs... Prospective contributors. | 22:48 |
| GunnarHj | belkinsa: Maybe something for pleia2? | 22:50 |
| belkinsa | Ah, I see. | 22:50 |
| belkinsa | Jose was helping us in the classroom backstage if we needed it. | 22:50 |
| GunnarHj | belkinsa: Aha, didn't know that. | 22:51 |
| belkinsa | And I didn't not know that he wanted to help the Doc Team. | 22:51 |
| GunnarHj | belkinsa: I don't know either. But he asked a few good questions. | 22:52 |
| belkinsa | I bet he knew the answers but I think it was for the rest. | 22:52 |
| GunnarHj | Maybe.. | 22:52 |
| GunnarHj | belkinsa: Are you basically saying that we didn't succeed in getting more people in? | 22:53 |
| belkinsa | No, I'm not saying that. | 22:54 |
| belkinsa | I think most people are just quiet/shy to ask questions during the sessions and Jose was doing that for them. | 22:54 |
| belkinsa | ... | 22:54 |
| belkinsa | Never mind. | 22:54 |
| GunnarHj | belkinsa: Ok, so we'll have to wait and see, is that what you mean? | 22:55 |
| belkinsa | Maybe. | 22:55 |
| knome | so how many people talked in -chat during the day, apart from people who were organizing it? | 22:58 |
| belkinsa | Two or three, I believe. | 22:59 |
| belkinsa | It was benonsoftware and two others. | 22:59 |
| belkinsa | No, it was benonsoftware and three others. Two of them only said one line. | 23:01 |
| belkinsa | Three, if you include benonsoftware. | 23:01 |
| pleia2 | jsjgruber is the guy who maintains lernid these days, so he often lurks during sessions to tests his new things ;) | 23:22 |
| belkinsa | I have looked at Lernid. It looks useful and more than just using IRC for classrooms. dsmythies's session is a good example. | 23:23 |
| pleia2 | it has a terminal built in for things like dsmythies' session | 23:25 |
| belkinsa | Yup, I had an afterthought about that. | 23:26 |
