[20:02] :D [20:02] with mailing list i just send an empty mail to "ubuntu-africa@lists.launchpad.net" [20:02] ? [20:02] whew [20:03] yes right :D [20:03] stevdok on the launchpad page there should be a button for the mailing list [20:04] i only see unsubscribe [20:04] then you are subscribed [20:05] ill sent a test mail and you can see if you get it [20:05] ok [20:05] aslo look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeams [20:05] on stand by [20:05] 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] so we can exchange ideas about methods and tools [20:06] that sounds good melodie [20:06] 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. [20:07] 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. [20:08] ie: some time ago I discovered a library for graphic user interfaces which allow creating nice GUIs that need less resources than most [20:09] 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] I know a program which makes use of this library for a GUI [20:09] I can show you want it looks like? [20:10] http://maoserr.github.io/projects/redshiftgui/ [20:10] lol no good to show me girl, i am very low on data so not browsing at all [20:10] but others will see the link i think [20:10] Kilos ok, you can see that another time when you are higher on data [20:10] others can see it [20:11] and the screenshot of the tool also http://maoserr.github.io/projects/redshiftgui/main.png [20:11] yes i made a mistake with sim cards when supposed to be using after mignight data i wasnt [20:11] Kilos mistakes happen [20:12] lo, yeah [20:12] the library is developped in Brazil http://maoserr.github.io/projects/redshiftgui/main.png [20:14] stevdok did you get the list mail?
