Unit193micahg: Heya, sorry to bother, but eyes? :)01:19
Unit193Howdy.01:20
micahgUnit193: heh, they still need a set of eyes on it :)01:21
micahgI'll take a look01:21
Unit193Hah, nice.01:21
micahgUnit193: which PPA again?01:22
Unit193unit193/staging.01:22
micahglooking01:27
micahgumm...chroot issues, sigh01:34
micahgsorry, not looking like I'll be able to do that tonight02:22
Unit193Sure, noooo problemo!02:25
ochosibluesabre: i'll try to get some last icons done for LO today, can we then go ahead, do the release and upload?08:13
ochosiobviously there are still tons of icons to-do, but i'd like to do a first upload as i08:14
ochosi'm not sure how early i'll be able to focus on the calc icons08:15
ochosialso, those are a lot more that need fixing/drawing08:15
ochosiwriter looks pretty okayish already08:15
knomeochosi, ping09:24
knomeochosi, did you see this already: http://pad.ubuntu.com/xubuntu-derivative-guidelines09:24
knomei've gathered some more derivatives that claim to be based on xubuntu on that pad09:24
knomei think we should try to contact the derivatives generally after we've finished these guidelines09:25
knomeespecially those who use our branding/point to our support resources09:25
ochosihey knome 09:25
knome(or generally, break the guidelines)09:25
ochosii've seen it before, not sure whether there have been updates to the guidelines since then09:25
knomeanother pad i literally just set up is http://pad.ubuntu.com/xubuntu-related-websites09:25
knomeno, not the guidelines themself09:26
ochosisounds like a good plan to get an oversight of what's out there09:27
ochosii really haven't looked much myself so far09:27
knomeso for the localized pages, they are fine, i'd just have thought they would have contacted us09:27
knomethey use our old logos and stuff, so that's a bit meh09:27
ochosiright09:28
ochosimaybe we should contact them as well then09:28
ochosiguess it could be a generic email we send out to all of them09:28
knomeyeah09:28
knomehttp://xubuntu.fr/09:29
knomethere too, they use the new logo, but not in the specified color09:30
knomeso we don't like that :P09:30
ochosireally weird that there are those totally disconnected communities09:31
knomeyep...09:32
ochosithat don't even seem to look for any cooperation or communication with us09:32
ochosibasically like hermetic interest groups09:32
knomewell yeah... what can you do09:33
knomei haven't seen many derivative people around here either09:33
ochosinot much i guess09:33
ochosiwe can't get involved personally in all sub-communities as well09:33
knomesome sure, but considering the list i just put up is the top 5 pages in google for "based on xubuntu"...09:34
knomeof course we can't, but the sub-communities could get involved with our community09:34
knomeor at least make themselves visible to us09:34
knomei'm sure nobody in the team thinks that derivatives are only a bad thing, or want to stop them from spreading modified versions even09:34
knomebut some of their actions can turn out meh09:35
knomeand it could have been avoided with some simple communication09:35
ochosiyeah, that's often the case with many things09:36
knomeso i'd like to (again) encourage people to start communiating with us09:37
Unit193Hi.09:37
knomehey Unit193.09:37
knomeaha.. http://www.linuxpusher.com/product/notebook-sticker-xubuntu-grey09:38
knomeso they sell stickers with the old logo with no permission09:38
knomehmm09:38
ochosii guess we could ask them for sticker donations09:52
ochosibut then again, who of us would hand them out09:52
knomei guess we could ask them to update the logo09:52
knomeor drop it09:52
knome(:09:52
knome^ the nice version09:52
ochosilunchtime, bbabl10:04
knomebon appetit10:04
knomehello bluesabre 10:55
* bluesabre is spotted10:56
knomeyep, no way to escape10:56
bluesabregood thing I brought my10:56
bluesabrebox!10:56
knomehuhu10:56
bluesabre____10:57
bluesabre|:)|10:57
bluesabrehow's it going knome?10:58
knomeslowly, but in a good way10:58
knomepoking this and that as you can see ;)10:59
bluesabre:)10:59
bluesabreyeah, good work :D10:59
ochosihey bluesabre 11:00
bluesabrehiya ochosi11:00
ochosiwriting from my new laptop for the first time11:01
ochositouchpad is still a bit tricky, seems i touch it frequently when typing11:01
bluesabreMouse and Touchpad > Select touchpad > Disable touchpad while typing11:03
knomehaha11:03
knometouche11:03
ochosiyeah, can't seem to find the ideal timeout11:03
ochosiand sometimes there are some quirks with keyboard or touchpad becoming inactive for a bit11:03
knomewhich laptop is it again?11:04
ochosixps 13 ubuntu developer edition11:04
ochosi(dell)11:04
knomemm11:04
ochosibluesabre: do you need anything from my side to get the LO icons on  our iso other than me tagging a first release on github?11:06
bluesabreif you wanted to write the debian copyright, that'd be nice ;)11:06
bluesabrebut no, I think that should be it.  I'll figure out the proper packaging and start the long road to upload11:07
ochosipersonally, i'd mostly copy-paste it from libreoffice-style-human11:07
ochosiyeah, since it's likely going to be a long road it'd be better if we start it now that we still have time11:07
bluesabreyeah, but then there's also the attribution bits to you, knome, elementary11:07
ochosielementary bits are already there11:08
ochosihumanity is based on elementary after all11:08
bluesabreah11:08
ochosiso only the attribution to knome and me (or shimmer) is missing11:08
bluesabrecool11:08
bluesabreI'll poke you later with the draft11:08
ochosishall we keep the debian stuff in the repo too?11:08
ochosiah ok11:08
ochosiperfect11:08
bluesabrenah, no need11:09
ochosiok11:09
ochosii'm not opposed to keeping things in one place, and the copyright stuff might actually have some benefit11:09
knomeno reason not to put it in the repository either11:09
bluesabrehave you shown dan the current version to get his impression?11:09
bluesabrewe'd be better with an AUTHORS file11:09
bluesabrebut I can dump the debian packing in there, sure why not :)11:10
ochosii havent shown him the progress11:11
ochosibut then again, he didnt seem terribly interested in icons for LO11:11
ochosisaid something like i could knock myself out, but he/they didn't want any part in it11:12
bluesabrecool, thats fine then11:12
bluesabre:)11:12
ochosiyup11:12
ochosichecked that *before* i started ;)11:12
ochosianyway, they're aware, i might send them a screenshot at some point11:13
knomea-CHOO!11:13
knomegosh..11:13
ochosibless you11:13
knometa ta11:14
bluesabre:)11:16
ochosibluesabre: btw, i'll soon see whether i have the same icon issues with LO as you since my screen has likely the same px-density as yours now11:17
bluesabreochosi: sure, but you also addressed several of my issues :)11:20
ochosiyeah, the insert-field issue is left i guess11:22
bluesabrehm11:22
bluesabrethe highlight icon is quite high up there now11:22
ochosihighlight icon?11:23
bluesabrehttp://i.imgur.com/ttDrHo0.png11:24
bluesabremaybe not11:24
ochosithat's not my fault11:24
ochosididnt even touch that one11:24
knomedid you know you can buy a xubuntu disc from amazon?11:24
ochosiproblem is that there is no color selected11:24
ochosilooks better than without11:25
ochosiknome: wooot11:25
knomethe seller mentions the list price is $39.99, but sell it discounted at $8.9911:25
bluesabreoh, I see11:25
knomethat's... fishy11:25
knomeochosi, yeah i know, you bump to the weirdest stuff...11:25
ochosiis it a private person?11:25
ochosior a business scam11:26
knome"LinuxFreak"11:26
knomehttp://www.amazon.com/Xubuntu-Linux-14-04-CD-Official/dp/B00JTNN88A11:26
knome"official" my arse11:27
knome"oops i said it aloud"11:27
bluesabre"oooooopsies I tooted"11:27
knomehttps://ualinux.com/en/pay/ubuntu-oem/1404-oem-pack/xubuntu-pack-1404-oem-detail11:28
knomeharumph11:28
bluesabreochosi: other than that, the theme looks quite polished in writer11:28
ochosibluesabre: thanks, insert-link is still missing amongst others11:29
ochosiworking on that as we speak11:29
bluesabrenice11:29
ochosibluesabre, knome: thoughts? http://i.imgur.com/KAfssNB.png12:07
bluesabre:\12:08
bluesabregotta run, bbl12:10
knomeochosi, not too bad, but need to see in context12:56
sorinbis it legal to sell *buntu cd's ?13:55
sorinbcontradicts the philosophy of Ubuntu13:55
knomeas long as the person selling them doesn't make any profit (or reasonable amount of profit)14:09
knomereasonable being related to shipping+handling, burning14:09
knomesomething like $5 is usually considered just fine14:10
knomeMSRP of $39.99 isn't (though i don't think they've ever tried to sell the CDs with that price point)14:10
knomeon another note, after going through several derivatives, there seems to be a few that haven't taken removing xubuntu branding seriously14:17
sorinbremoving ?14:52
knomeyes.15:00
knomeunofficial derivatives can't use trademarked names or logos.15:00
sorinbinteresting. I never heard of a xubuntu derivate15:01
knomewell, at least if you abide the trademark laws15:01
knomepleia2, ochosi: http://pad.ubuntu.com/xubuntu-derivative-guidelines15:10
knomei've added a questionnaire draft at the end of the pad - i'm thinking we could/should gather information about the derivatives that way - and possibly get communication started with it15:10
knomenot sure if everything there is something we want to ask, but these are all the things that came to my mind in the last few days15:11
knomeUnit193, you know (someone from) the security onion community?15:17
ochosiknome: great idea and good questionnaire, sounds like a good way to go!16:49
=== mhall119_ is now known as mhall119
Unit193knome: No, just talked to a tails person before.20:52
knomebluesabre, ping?21:01
ochosibluesabre: question: do you intend to take the easy road and just ship the LO icons with xubuntu-artwork or do you wanna take the more laborious (but i guess generally nicer) approach of libreoffice-style-elementary?21:23
Unit193libreoffice-style-elementary, the first is Xubuntu branding and a meta.21:25
ochosiwell, elementary-xfce is also dubbed xubuntu-icon-theme21:26
Unit193Well, except for /usr/share/gmusicbrowser/pix/elementary/gmusicbrowser.png21:26
knomeochosi, also...22:02
knomeochosi, @ http://pad.ubuntu.com/xubuntu-derivative-guidelines, can you check if the package list makes sense at all?22:02
Unit193Nope.22:03
knomeUnit193, did i ask you anything? :)22:04
Unit193knome: No, but you should have asked how my tea was! :P22:04
bluesabreochosi: going to package it specifically22:08
bluesabreknome: hm?22:08
Unit193\o/22:09
knomebluesabre, what was that about the editable link?22:09
knomei don't understand...22:09
knomebluesabre, http://calendar.google.com/ :P22:09
knomebluesabre, click on the +GoogleCalendar button at the right bottom22:10
bluesabreknome: I had the public link, which for me was basically useless22:10
bluesabreI got it now22:10
bluesabreUnit193 added me directly22:10
knomeaha :)22:10
pleia2I didn't know there was a private link, it just shows up in my calendar with magic22:10
knomeso you just weren't a member22:10
knomepleia2, it's the same link, you just have to have edit rights22:11
pleia2ah22:11
Unit193Well, there is a private link too, that you can use in, say, thunderbird.22:11
knome(and be logged in)22:11
knomeUnit193, i just checked what my link said, it's basically the calendar ID22:12
Unit193Hmm.22:20
knomei will be off from today until some time monday23:08
knomenot going to make the meeting23:09
knomewell tomorrow tbe; i might pop in early tomorrow or not23:09
