[01:11] <skellat> benonsoftware: Not bad.  A $60 Lumia 520 does just what I want without too much hassle.
[07:48] <dholbach> good morning
[09:10] <dpm> morning all
[09:28] <dpm> balloons, has a really cool away message set on his auto-replier while on holiday :)
[09:28] <dpm> "balloons is floating away..."
[09:29] <dholbach> :)
[09:32] <elfy> let's hope he doesn't land on a fir tree needle then :)
[09:40] <dholbach> dpm, could it be that the markup of https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/guides/packaging-format-apps/ is broken?
[09:40] <dholbach> I was just looking at bug 1401326
[09:40] <ubot2> bug 1401326 in Ubuntu App Developer site "The github link appears as raw html code" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1401326
[09:41] <dpm> dholbach, looking...
[09:42] <dpm> elfy, lol
[09:43] <dpm> dholbach, ah, yeah, it needs the code examples old [code] tags replaced by <pre> with the syntaxhighlighter classes
[09:44] <dholbach> dpm, do we have the old article still somewhere to doublecheck what it's supposed to look like?
[09:45] <dholbach> bug 1403808 filed as well
[09:45] <ubot2> bug 1403808 in Ubuntu App Developer site "Uploading images in the blog site is broken" [Critical,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1403808
[09:45] <dpm> dholbach, I did an export of the full database, and two smaller ones containing posts and pages. We can always recover content from there, but I'm familiar with that page, I'll fix it
[09:45]  * dholbach hugs dpm
[09:45] <dholbach> great
[09:52] <dpm> the list of bugs is getting longer :)
[09:52] <dpm> https://bugs.launchpad.net/developer-ubuntu-com/+milestone/after-live-fixes
[09:57] <dholbach> wow
[12:56] <dpm> dholbach, reviewed https://code.launchpad.net/~dholbach/developer-ubuntu-com/1403814/+merge/245084 - all good, just one last nitpick. Would you mind doing that change and then merging to trunk?
[12:57] <dholbach> dpm, Portal or portal?
[12:57] <dholbach> the latter I assume?
[12:57] <dpm> dholbach, "portal", to be consistent with the rest of the site (we don't use caps for titles)
[12:58] <dholbach> right
[12:58] <dpm> thanks!
[13:09] <dholbach> now back to the comments problem :)
[17:42] <dholbach> ok, I call it a day - see you all tomorrow again!
[17:42] <mhall119> dholbach: have a good one
[17:42] <dholbach> you too
[17:42] <mhall119> mine ain't over yet :)
[17:43] <dholbach> see you tomorrow :)
[19:41] <jcastro> hey mhall119
[19:54] <mhall119> hey jcastro
[19:55] <jcastro> willcooke just posted an awesome video of xmir on unity8
[19:56] <jcastro> but like, we need to get that stuff on planet, not just G+
[19:57] <czajkowski> poke him for memberhsip he's active in the UK community and is involved in advoacy
[19:57] <mhall119> ^^ that
[19:57] <czajkowski> very helpful to have on irc
[19:57] <jcastro> he doesn't even have a blog I don't think
[19:57] <mhall119> jcastro: I've also talked to him about getting unity.u.c setup with a blog that syndicates
[19:57] <czajkowski> jcastro: takes 2 mins to set up a blog
[19:58] <czajkowski> he's technical enough to set up wp :)
[19:58] <czajkowski> no excuses
[19:58] <czajkowski> so seattle - does it rain as much as it does in the movies there :)
[19:59] <jcastro> https://plus.google.com/+WillCooke/posts/AytMDDrLfcT
[19:59] <jcastro> ok everyone +1 my post
[20:03] <czajkowski> I've a better idea :)
[20:03] <czajkowski> now everyone +1 my post :p
[20:40] <pleia2> mhall119: do you happen to know *when* the Iranian team had their release party? (working on the summary for the newsletter)
[20:43] <pleia2> ooh, even better, Mehdi is my facebook friend, maybe he knows
[20:45] <mhall119> pleia2: yeah, I didn't find dates for it, sorry
[20:45] <pleia2> np, thanks anyway :)
[20:48] <mhall119> pleia2: not sure if this is it, it's from May: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-ir/2810-ubuntu-1404-release-party-tehran/
[20:48] <mhall119> but that's the most recent event theyhave in LTP
[20:49] <pleia2> mhall119: yeah, I checked ltp, their facebook photo page says it's a 14.10 event
[20:49] <pleia2> unfortunately facebook munges photo data, so I can't sneakily see what date the photos were taken ;)
[20:49]  * mhall119 wished ltp was used more

[20:57] <pleia2> I really don't like this trend jono started of posting blog posts instead of actually having discussion on the list :(
[20:59] <elfy> who's post?
[20:59] <pleia2> this time it was belkinsa ;)
[20:59] <elfy> oh yea saw that
[20:59] <pleia2> I don't blame her, since it's the trend, but it makes discussion really hard
[21:00] <elfy> tbh - I don't take much notice of things people blog
[21:00] <pleia2> yeah, a lot of people don't
[21:00] <elfy> I certainly don't reply to them
[21:00] <pleia2> it broadens the audience in the sense of the rest of the world, but shrinks it considerably to the list community
[21:00] <elfy> yep
[21:00] <pleia2> which are the ones who actually have action power :)
[21:03] <elfy> lol
[21:03] <pleia2> I am a bit sad that some of these solutions are "change giant complicated thing that is outside our control, that'll fix the community!"
[21:03] <elfy> yea - but more or less what I expected tbh - seen it before
[21:03]  * pleia2 nods
[21:03] <elfy> both *here* and r/l
[21:04] <czajkowski> +1
[21:04] <czajkowski> well it's clearly the rage to blog rather than taking the time to use the tools we have ML/ or IRC meetings
[21:04] <czajkowski> bit of a stage ...
[21:04] <pleia2> I hope it ends soon :)
[21:04] <elfy> we're at that stage after loads of people  finds that they get listened to - and before the few that care enough to help step up I think
[21:05] <elfy> czajkowski: yep :)
[21:05] <czajkowski> between that and the multiple seperate threads about the same topic on diffferent subjects on the ml it's made it hard to keep on top of it all
[21:05] <czajkowski> it;s like someone rasied a good topic on a thread lets start a new thread on that
[21:05] <czajkowski> *headdesk*
[21:06] <elfy> yea - I was majorly confused with which was what
[21:06] <skellat> czajkowski: That's why I moved all traffic from that mailing list to a separate account to be dealt with separately
[21:06] <elfy> and then when I thought - best answer that point - I could never find the thing again
[21:06] <czajkowski> elfy: BINGO!!!!
[21:09] <elfy> czajkowski: you still in US?
[21:09] <czajkowski> nope back  for the last 2 weeks but been in paris in the mean time
[21:09] <czajkowski> and in 3 weeks I'm back over in Mountain View
[21:09] <czajkowski> and Feb I'm in NYC
[21:09] <czajkowski> :)
[21:09] <elfy> ok - so you're not in Dundee then :)
[21:10] <elfy> must have a twin
[21:10] <czajkowski> narp am in Guildford
[21:10] <czajkowski> :) home home
[21:10] <czajkowski> but Saturday I head to IReland, Home.
[21:10] <elfy> I saw that :)
[21:11] <czajkowski> we're driving and getting the ferry
[21:11] <czajkowski> :D
[21:11] <elfy> :)
[21:11] <elfy> well I hope that the weather holds fair for that little journey for you :)
[21:11] <czajkowski> me to has to be better than last year
[21:11] <elfy> Irish Sea is not one I'd want to be on when it cuts up
[21:11] <czajkowski> much dying on the boat back
[21:12] <elfy> bit rough was it :p
[21:12] <czajkowski> homage to the porceline gods!
[21:12] <elfy> ha ha ha
[21:12] <czajkowski> I died on that trip back. swore never again
[21:12] <elfy> lol
[21:13] <elfy> I did one like that back from France once - I was ok - whole galley full of food for me \o/
[21:13] <elfy> just the cooks, my cousin and me :)
