[02:47] <loadedjd> hello
[02:47] <loadedjd> lets discuss ubuntu
[05:41] <staticshock007> Hello
[05:42] <staticshock007> i'm thinking of updating to 14.10 soon, but am still undecided, has anyone tried the beta releases yet?
[05:42] <staticshock007> any improvement from 14.04?
[05:43] <rww> it's a pretty quiet release
[05:43] <rww> if you have any doubts about whether you want to be on a 6 month release upgrade cycle, I'd stick with LTS
[05:44] <staticshock007> i'm actually torn between staying with LTS and upgrading,
[05:45] <rww> it's easier to change your mind and upgrade later than to change your mind and have to reinstall because we don't support downgrading
[05:45] <staticshock007> I use ubuntu for my daily computing, and i was wondering if there will be any performance improvements if i move over to 14.10
[05:46] <Symmetria> anyone got any idea what time (GMT) we're looking at official release? just wanna make sure our NOC is monitoring the servers we host to make sure there are no problems
[05:47] <rww> staticshock007: doubtful
[05:47] <rww> Symmetria: there isn't a set time
[05:47] <rww> it's done when the release team gets done with their checklist and all
[05:49] <Symmetria> ok, no problems :) I've got our NOC on high alert watching the mirrors we host just in case of any issues
[05:49]  * rww nods
[05:49] <Symmetria> heh, first time the EA mirrors will be seriously stress tested beyond the normal flow of traffic
[05:49] <Symmetria> so watching pretty closely
[05:49] <rww> yeah, the official mirror network gets very fun on release day
[05:49] <rww> good luck :)
[05:49] <staticshock007> :)
[05:49] <Symmetria> lol rww its gets more fun if you considering that the box is official mirror for like 10 countries
[05:50] <Symmetria> I changed the networking config to a 20G LAG yesterday to ensure the capacity was there
[06:38] <lordievader> Good morning.
[06:39] <elfy> morning lordievader
[06:40] <lordievader> Hey elfy, how are you doing?
[06:41] <elfy> awake ;)
[08:34] <vitimiti> Hi
[08:34] <elfy> morning vitimiti
[08:35] <vitimiti> Morning, today is the day, isn't it?
[08:35] <Mikaela> !utopic
[08:35] <elfy> the day before we start again :D
[08:36] <vitimiti> I am surprised of how stable this beta has been, I have to say
[08:36] <elfy> it's been pretty much stable for me since November
[09:09] <Keening_Product> I'm not sure if I should ask this here or in #Ubuntu, though #Ubuntu says to direct questions here: what time is the release of the final release?
[09:11] <vitimiti> !utopic
[09:13] <Keening_Product> Thanks. Also, nice bot.
[09:21] <varjag> we need a countdown
[09:21]  * varjag just got a new netbook in the post
[09:26] <vitimiti> There's a party channel
[09:30] <wiky> It's 17:30 here. I can't wait.
[09:33] <Keening_Product> 20:33 here. I'm beginning to suspect it'll be tomorrow here when it's available.
[09:35] <vitimiti> It's 11:35 here
[09:48] <Keening_Product> 20:48 represent
[09:49] <Keening_Product> owait, I've already replied to that
[10:15] <Keening_Product> !isitout
[10:40] <BluesKaj> HI all
[10:46] <Keening_Product> Heyoh
[10:47] <Keening_Product> A question: do all official spins get released at the same time as the main Ubuntu? I know they have the same release date and all, and the release time is TBA, but is there usually a delay?
[10:47] <Keening_Product> (I'm not just being impatient - have to plan evening or weekend around this)
[10:52] <vitimiti> Maybe you should ask in the corresponding channel
[10:54] <BluesKaj> Keening_Product, spins...aka flavours
[10:54] <BluesKaj> and to answer your question , usually yes
[10:56] <BluesKaj> but who knows what time of day the release will take place, that's always a toss up
[10:58] <Keening_Product> BluesKaj, Yep, that's the one. Could only remember the Fedora term for a moment there haha Thanks for the answer :)
[11:00] <BluesKaj> Keening_Product, well , i plan to rake leaves today, no matter what time the release happens :)
[11:03] <Keening_Product> Yeah, I have an assignment tonight, work tomorrow and on the weekend, and a date tomorrow, then need a functioning system come Monday morning haha.
[11:03] <Keening_Product> (I'm upgrading several system componenets, including storage, with this OS update)
[11:08] <BluesKaj> bbiab
[11:45] <lordievader> Are the final iso marked as ready?
[11:46] <lordievader> Hmm, nope. Still testing ;)
[12:08] <Keening_Product> !isitout
[12:11] <lordievader> Keening_Product: Subscribe to the announce mailing list ;)
[12:12] <Keening_Product> Ooooh, didn't know there was such a thing. Noob question: where can I do that?
[12:12] <lordievader> Keening_Product: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-announce
[12:14] <Keening_Product> Thank you!
[14:44] <djzn> is 14.10 going to be released today or is it released without announcements?
[14:45] <vitimiti> Hi
[14:46] <lordievader> I heared it is already available on cdimages.u.c so I suppose the announcement will follow soon.
[14:47] <Symmetria> suspect release is pretty imminent
[14:48] <lordievader> !pm | Symmetria
[14:49] <Symmetria> lol :) no question, just a statement in response to something but all good :)
[14:50] <lordievader> Symmetria: I know, but most people (including me) don't like it when you randomly start PM'ing them.
[14:50] <lordievader> Hmm, guess the factiod changed. Previously it said something along those lines.
[15:01] <bynarie> looks like its available
[15:08] <BluesKaj> bynarie, not yet
[15:21] <wcs_> hi guys!
[15:21] <wcs_> quick question!
[15:21] <wcs_> is going to be released today?
[15:23] <vitimiti> Yes
[15:25] <wcs_> yeey!
[15:25] <wcs_> hahaha
[15:25] <wcs_> ok, just to get sure :P
[15:42] <Fishscene> I'm seeing torrents for 14.10, but I can't tell if it has been officially released yet or not.
[15:42] <Symmetria> fishscene my guess is the answer to that is no
[15:43] <Symmetria> since the standard downloads on the mirror system are still 14.04
[15:43] <Symmetria> and zero hits against the utopic archives on the mirrors yet either
[15:50] <Fishscene> ah- sorry, I should have been a *lot* more clear. I couldn't tell if they were the final-release torrents or not. lol.
[15:59] <rohan> ubottu: isitoutyet
[15:59] <rohan> but distrowatch and canonical press release seem to indicate it's out? https://insights.ubuntu.com/2014/10/23/ubuntu-14-10-desktop-security-for-global-users/
[16:00] <vitimiti> And OMG Ubuntu says so, too
[16:01] <vitimiti> Bye
[16:01] <Symmetria> trust me, its not officially out yet, if it was, I'd be seeing people downloading it from me ;p
[16:04] <elfy> rohan: the canonical press release was out before half the images were marked ready
[16:05] <rohan> Symmetria: how do you mean downoloading from you? you run a mirror?
[16:06] <rohan> elfy: yeah, i guessed so, even the distrowatch link only gives the 64-bit version
[16:08] <Symmetria> rohan I run most of the east african mirrors
[16:08] <rohan> Symmetria: awesome! thanks for your service :)
[16:08] <Symmetria> for ke/zw/za/bw/tz/rw/ug/bi/sd/so/zm/mz/mu
[16:08] <Symmetria> I think thats all the ones I run ;p
[16:52] <djzn> will the main site on canonical have the 14.10 annoncement release?
[17:11] <Fishscene> djzn: Of course. :P
[17:12] <djzn> Fishscene, many places annoucing the release but nothing on ubuntu.com
[17:12] <Fishscene> Although I have to note, I'm not in an authoritative position. But in previous releases, they have had an announcement on the main Ubuntu website.
[17:12] <Fishscene> Yea, people are going to announce it because today is the day it is supposed to be released. But that's a 24-hour Window.
[17:16] <djzn> i was starting to think this  a 'undercover ' release
[17:21] <Mikaela> !utopic
[17:21] <Mikaela> I think there was given some UTC time that isn't yet
[17:22] <Mikaela> no, I am probably confusing it to freeze
[18:10]  * vitimiti is back
