wxl | jose, can i bug you again please? if you're tired of me i understand :) | 00:17 |
---|---|---|
wxl | i have too many damn accounts :) | 00:17 |
wxl | aw jeez wrong channel on that last one. request for jose still stands :( | 00:18 |
skellat | wxl: I am able to assist? | 00:19 |
wxl | skellat: you may be able to. i've had this rt ticket lingering FOREVER to get us hosting for our loco. jose's helped a couple times to try to push it forward but nothing seems to be happening. | 00:19 |
skellat | What's the number for it? | 00:20 |
wxl | 1sa | 00:20 |
wxl | 1s i mean | 00:20 |
skellat | :-) | 00:20 |
wxl | 25072 | 00:20 |
skellat | Okay | 00:21 |
skellat | Let me see here | 00:21 |
skellat | There's no vanguard at present | 00:21 |
wxl | when i first started the ticket i didn't exactly realize it was a ticket system and included too many things in one mail so it's kind of a mess | 00:21 |
wxl | tl;dr really all i need is oregon.ubuntu-us.org set up | 00:21 |
wxl | skellat: vanguard? | 00:22 |
wxl | i.e. owner? | 00:22 |
skellat | Nobody is on watch duty over in the sysadmin channel | 00:23 |
wxl | ah | 00:23 |
wxl | well if you or anyone could do anything to facilitate this it would be great | 00:23 |
wxl | i know that i'm going to get hounded by people at our irc meeting about how rt takes forever to respond | 00:23 |
wxl | i've had people bugging me to set up hosting elsewhere and frankly i'd really like to keep it in the family as it were | 00:24 |
skellat | Found the ticket and reading through it | 00:26 |
* skellat is up to August and is trying to digest the stream of actions | 00:26 | |
wxl | it's really disgusting, skellat. and it's my fault. unfortunately there's a lot of confusion. | 00:28 |
skellat | No problem | 00:28 |
wxl | if i would have only known it was a ticket system :( | 00:28 |
skellat | You may not be able to get an empty site | 00:29 |
skellat | You may get a Drupal install to fiddle with | 00:29 |
wxl | if that's what i'm forced with i can live i guess | 00:29 |
wxl | i would like wordpress in there somehow, that's the only thing i'll say | 00:30 |
skellat | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoHosting | 00:30 |
skellat | Forum, wiki, or Drupal with oregon.ubuntu-us.org | 00:30 |
skellat | I'd go with the Drupal option | 00:31 |
wxl | indeed | 00:31 |
skellat | Drupal isn't so bad | 00:32 |
wxl | i don't know drupal all that well but as long as i can have people contribute to a "blog" of some kind and make an rss feed out of it, that's all i care about | 00:32 |
skellat | After all, the White House uses it on www.whitehouse.gov | 00:32 |
skellat | :-) | 00:32 |
wxl | oh well, gee. :) | 00:32 |
skellat | For what you're wanting, take a look at www.lisnews.org | 00:32 |
skellat | That's probably what you want operationally | 00:32 |
wxl | well any blog engine really | 00:33 |
wxl | i *THINK* there is a such a thing in drupal | 00:33 |
wxl | this is drupal? | 00:33 |
skellat | www.lisnews.org is not as pretty as www.whitehouse.gov | 00:34 |
skellat | But both utilize Drupal | 00:34 |
wxl | ahh cool | 00:35 |
wxl | that's what i want. i'll live | 00:35 |
skellat | Okay | 00:35 |
wxl | we have our own wiki and forum so no need for that garbage | 00:35 |
wxl | so administration is all taken care of by canonical then? | 00:35 |
skellat | You'll have things to play with on the Drupal site | 00:36 |
skellat | It isn't that bad | 00:36 |
wxl | well, do i handle updates and things like that? | 00:37 |
skellat | They do stuff on the back-end | 00:37 |
skellat | You get to fiddle with presentation stuff | 00:37 |
wxl | great | 00:37 |
wxl | that's a boon in my opinion | 00:37 |
skellat | What was the old vanity domain for your LoCo? | 00:38 |
wxl | ubuntu-oregon.org | 00:39 |
wxl | which would be nice to have but someone's squatting on it now | 00:39 |
wxl | bkerensa suggested i ask to have canonical do a cease and desist order which i kind of suggested in that ticket | 00:40 |
wxl | but if we don't get that, i can live | 00:40 |
nhaines | I suspect that is something that can be handled separately. | 00:40 |
wxl | i agree but jose said if i made a separate ticket it would just inevitably get merged with that one | 00:41 |
* wxl shrugs | 00:41 | |
wxl | i'll just make a new ticket and we'll see what happens | 00:41 |
skellat | Please don't make a new ticket | 00:41 |
wxl | oh ok | 00:41 |
skellat | Wait for the spammage to show up in your inbox | 00:41 |
wxl | hahah ok | 00:41 |
skellat | I updated it to have actionable things that can be driven forward | 00:42 |
skellat | However, come to think of it, we don't have a policy on vanity URLs for teams | 00:42 |
skellat | Just small-c canonical URLs | 00:42 |
wxl | yeah i hear you | 00:42 |
wxl | i'm not too concerned about it | 00:42 |
wxl | if it CAN happen, great. if it DOESN'T, oh well. :) | 00:43 |
wxl | just as long as we have *A* website that we can control that will make a big difference | 00:43 |
wxl | thank you much for the help | 00:44 |
skellat | No problem | 00:44 |
skellat | I'll leave further poking and prodding to jose | 00:44 |
wxl | hehehe ok :) | 00:44 |
jose | wxl: do not make a new ticket | 01:02 |
jose | wxl: IS's got a lot of work right now, but I'll see what an I do | 01:03 |
jose | can* | 01:03 |
wxl | jose: will do | 01:06 |
wxl | jose: i mean thank you sorry XD | 01:06 |
jose | :P | 01:06 |
dholbach | good morning | 07:07 |
