| melodie | hi, salut | 20:00 |
| Kilos | hi melodie | 20:00 |
| melodie | hello Kilos how are you? | 20:00 |
| Kilos | stevdok let me find out more | 20:00 |
| Kilos | good ty melodie and you | 20:00 |
| melodie | well, it's been hot, I was in the big town for a special tech even, a breakfast where they introduce the non for profit association to people (550 members in tech things) | 20:01 |
| melodie | and came back tired because I went late to sleep and got early and it was very hot this afternoon, it ended with a laarge nap! | 20:02 |
| melodie | :D | 20:02 |
| stevdok | with mailing list i just send an empty mail to "ubuntu-africa@lists.launchpad.net" | 20:02 |
| stevdok | ? | 20:02 |
| Kilos | whew | 20:02 |
| melodie | yes right :D | 20:03 |
| Kilos | stevdok on the launchpad page there should be a button for the mailing list | 20:03 |
| stevdok | i only see unsubscribe | 20:04 |
| Kilos | then you are subscribed | 20:04 |
| Kilos | ill sent a test mail and you can see if you get it | 20:05 |
| stevdok | ok | 20:05 |
| Kilos | aslo look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeams | 20:05 |
| stevdok | on stand by | 20:05 |
| melodie | Kilos other news, is that I have tested then contacted on their forums Italian people who have created a Ubuntu Openbox, with a control center and additional tools in it | 20:05 |
| melodie | so we can exchange ideas about methods and tools | 20:05 |
| Kilos | that sounds good melodie | 20:06 |
| melodie | and I am now looking for people who code, to help handle the development of a general Openbox Control Center, which should become available for all distributions. | 20:06 |
| melodie | if there are people who code in the #ubuntu-africa community and interested to help make a really easy Openbox branded environment (without the whole Lxde) there are ideas around that which could be interesting. | 20:07 |
| melodie | ie: some time ago I discovered a library for graphic user interfaces which allow creating nice GUIs that need less resources than most | 20:08 |
| melodie | so coders might be very interested to know about it : I compiled it in a virtual machine, met with issues, exchanged emails with the dev, who gave me instructions and finally improved his code (the latest version of it). | 20:09 |
| melodie | I know a program which makes use of this library for a GUI | 20:09 |
| melodie | I can show you want it looks like? | 20:09 |
| melodie | http://maoserr.github.io/projects/redshiftgui/ | 20:10 |
| Kilos | lol no good to show me girl, i am very low on data so not browsing at all | 20:10 |
| Kilos | but others will see the link i think | 20:10 |
| melodie | Kilos ok, you can see that another time when you are higher on data | 20:10 |
| melodie | others can see it | 20:10 |
| melodie | and the screenshot of the tool also http://maoserr.github.io/projects/redshiftgui/main.png | 20:11 |
| Kilos | yes i made a mistake with sim cards when supposed to be using after mignight data i wasnt | 20:11 |
| melodie | Kilos mistakes happen | 20:11 |
| Kilos | lo, yeah | 20:12 |
| melodie | the library is developped in Brazil http://maoserr.github.io/projects/redshiftgui/main.png | 20:12 |
| Kilos | stevdok did you get the list mail? | 20:14 |
