[18:05] zpfeffer: Is there something that the Ubuntu-ops team can help you with? [19:14] hi - got hfsplus being an indjit in ubuntu+1 - tia :) [19:14] thanks for all you do - cya [19:19] hggdh pong? [19:20] elky: so, do you accept the nomination for the IRCC? [19:20] with that we will be with 4 candidates for the two slots, so you have around a 50% chance of being elected [19:21] no, sorry, it will be five, so less than 50% [19:22] hggdh: sure, why not :) [19:22] I see hggdh has caught on to my strategy of "nominate a tonne of people so I'm less likely to get elected" [19:22] thank you :-) [19:22] with that I think we have enough candidates to send over to the CC [19:22] i'm pretty sure that makes me the biggest fool of the lot [19:23] elky: since you've done it before? [19:23] yes [19:23] elky: oh, no, not at all. The, ah, foolest, methinks, is my poor self ;-) [19:23] elky: all things considered, you do seem to have a penchant for getting in situations where you need to talk with annoying people every day ;) [19:24] hggdh: ah, but i escaped [19:24] rww: I had not actually caught on the strategy, but I did like the base idea [19:25] it works for all: "oh, thre are 5 for two positions, so I will not be the lucky bastard" [19:33] hggdh: I would like to nominate jussi, tsimpson, and genii [19:33] heh [19:34] IdleOne: we need that in an email with the links to LP and wiki... [19:34] meh..forget it [19:34] Hm. [19:34] :-) [19:34] genii: unless you are interested [19:34] My LP really needs updating [19:35] if so I'll happily write an email [19:35] genii: this is the moment, this is the hour [19:35] Good job its not people being nominated, but people having to apply [19:36] Or at least accept nomination [19:36] DJones: well, there is that. Always worry when somebody else volunteers you [19:36] * DJones is inelligible [19:36] DJones: accepting the nominations is required (at least by me) [19:36] I haven't applied for Ubuntu membership [19:37] why not, if I may ask? [19:37] DJones: I still have access to the button that needs to be pushed to make you a member [19:37] * IdleOne is tempted [19:37] How much time is involved? I hear there's a lot of turnover [19:37] * hggdh still has access to the same button, plust the other one that cancels the first) [19:38] genii: weekly meetings (hardly ever happens) ignore emails about abusive ops (hourly) [19:38] hggdh: I don't think I do enough to be eligible for membership, I see sustained contribution as being more than just IRC/bug reporting etc [19:38] genii: usually not really intense: one (theoretical) monthly meeting, and responding to user's complaints [19:39] DJones: IRC contribs are considered [19:39] DJones: the support you do and the op duties alone make you eligible [19:39] (per se) [19:39] * IdleOne would +1 DJones anytime for membership [19:40] hggdh: IdleOne: I know it makes me eligible, bit I always put myself down, I don't think I do enough to have earned membership [19:40] s/bit/but/ [19:40] DJones: trust me you have and do [19:40] DJones: IdleOne doesn't do anything and he got it :3 [19:41] genii: I am not sure about turnover for previous instances of the IRCC; current one is around 40% [19:41] :( [19:41] Maybe I'll think about it [19:41] rww: I haven't been doing much for a while but I think I more than earned my membership just in abuse from fellow ops [19:41] the main novelty of this IRCC is that they actually resign instead of just disappearing [19:41] I wish there was some clause that you could accept nomination if there aren't enough people in the race already and everyone would just get acclaimed or so [19:41] DJones: do an exercise: fill in your wiki page with a proposal for membership, and ask people here for referrals [19:42] people here and your loco [19:42] Just started watching a film that makes me think about this, the start of "The Da Vinci Code", images of a naked bloke whipping himself [19:42] my guess is you get 15 minimum [19:42] DJones: bwahahaha [19:42] DJones: you left me with disturbing mental image [19:43] hggdh: You should have seen the video, that may be worse [19:43] genii: unfortunately we need at least n+1 candidates for n slots [19:45] hggdh: Yes, I realize. We sometimes have the same situation at Toronto FreeNet [19:46] * genii nominates mneptok [19:46] * genii giggles and runs away [19:47] shame HFSPLUS doesn't have ubuntu membership, I'd nominate him in a heartbeat [19:48] rww: Will you stop reading my mind [19:48] I had the same thought [19:49] * mneptok declines by setting himself on fire [19:50] drastic [19:51] i must preserve my reputation as a drama queen. *hair toss* [19:51] I've read that about you [19:51] right right, they have a plaque on the wall at the Canonical offices [19:52] "Those who forget the past shall be condemned to repeat it." [19:53] something like that [22:22] zpfeffer: hi [22:26] we have been trying to engage zpfeffer since some six hours ago. I do not think we need to keep trying
