Priceysveta: No point until they're an ubuntu member though ;)11:32
sveta:)11:32
Fuchsit's a wild sveta12:13
mittwallyHave I to be present personally to Ubuntu meeting to become a member?12:56
Fuchsmittwally: it is recommended, as people are likely to ask you questions12:57
Fuchsmittwally: I assume you already filled out your wiki page as recommended, got some testimonials  (and maybe some already existing members to cheer for you at the meeting)?12:58
mittwallyYes, I read the wiki as recommended https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership13:00
Fuchsoh, note that my answer was concerning going the IRC way and get the ubuntu IRC membership,13:03
Fuchslocal boards are different, and I am not aware of how these work. But my guess would be that physical presence is good there, given that is what local boards are actually for13:03
Fuchson IRC you just need to be present (as in online and in the channel)13:03
Fuchsreading https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership/NewMember  suggests that being present is good if not even mandatory, though13:05
hggdhmittwally: you *do* need to be present on the MB meeting. If you are not there we will not decide on your application14:04
hggdhmittwolly: exceptions could be arranged, but we need previous contact for that.14:04
hggdhs/mittwolly/mittwally/14:06
mittwallyhggdh: Which country is the meeting?14:06
hggdhmittwally: I am not sure I understand your question. There are people from everywhere in the world in the membership board14:07
hggdhthe meeting is purely on-line14:07
PiciI don't thunk Fuchs understood that...14:08
hggdhyeah14:09
FuchsPici: hm?14:11
hggdhthere are no "local" boards anymore. Now we have a meeting at 1200 UTC and 2200 UTC (on different days). Previously we had Americas, EU, and Asia-Pacific boards14:11
PiciEven the americas/eu/asia boards were all online though14:11
hggdh(and previously previously, just one)14:11
hggdhyes14:12
mittwallyhggdh: How is the exam? There are a few questions about my job in Ubuntu, that's it?14:13
hggdhmittwally: there is no exam. We just want to confirm you indeed have a *sustained* (and longer than 6 months) effort on helping Ubuntu. Of course, we ask for references14:14
PiciIt is more like an interview.14:14
hggdhtestimonials of current Ubuntu members go a long way in helping you14:14
mittwallyI have 2 months yet, hehe, long time to go14:14
mittwallyBut I'm loving Ubuntu, it's a good system.14:15
hggdhPici is correct, it is more like an interview. And we are NOT trying to trick you :-)14:15
mittwallyHehe, I don't if here is the right place to ask it, but yesterday I asked about manual of Ubuntu but it is too basic. There is a way to get more knowlegde about Ubuntu?14:17
FuchsPici: so the local boards are gone now? Pity :(14:19
hggdhthis is indeed not the right place (we deal with IRC issues here). But you can search wiki.ubuntu.com -- there is a wealth of iinformation there14:19
mittwallyok, thanks, switching14:20

Picirafaellaguna: Are you looking for an Ubuntu cloak?19:56
rafaellagunaI'm asking for a cloak19:56
rafaellagunayes, sorry19:56
PiciPricey: Could you please apply an ubuntu/member/rafaellaguna to rafaellaguna?19:57
rafaellagunaexcuse me, as my nickname?19:58
PriceyPici: rafaellaguna: You're all set.19:58
Priceyrafaellaguna: Make sure you identify to nickserv if you want the cloak to work. http://freenode.net/sasl is a good link.19:58
Picirafaellaguna: congrats :)19:59
PiciPricey: thanks19:59
PriceyNo problem.19:59
rafaellagunathank you!19:59
rafaellagunaso I must use this URL as my server19:59
Fuchsnope20:00
Fuchsyou can optionally read on that page how to configure your client (IRC program) to authenticate via SASL20:00
rafaellagunaok, I'll do. thanks so much20:00
Fuchsdoing so will ensure that you are authenticated to services (such as nickserv) already on connect, and hence cloaked on connect. It's recommended but entirely optional.20:00
Fuchsif you click on your client in the lower list  (if available) there should be a manual20:01
rafaellagunaI'm looking at the freenode SASL scripts right now20:03
Fuchswhat client are you using?20:03
rafaellagunaxchat20:04
Fuchsyou might want to consider switching to hexchat, which is an xchat fork that does it out of the box. If not: take the perl script. It works.20:05
rafaellagunadidn't know that client, I'll have a look too20:05
FuchsIt's basically the same as xchat, just a couple more features20:05
Unit193Including built-in SASL.20:07
Fuchses, I already mentioned that :p20:07
Fuchs*yes20:07
rafaellagunathank you for this20:07
Fuchsyou're welcome20:08
Unit193Meh, my brain is broken.20:14
FuchsUnit193: try applying salt20:14
