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