[00:58]  * mikeputnam waves
[00:59] <tsimonq2> hello!
[00:59] <tsimonq2> anyone else around for a quick little meeting?
[01:00] <tsimonq2> adueppen? you were talking to me in Hangouts...get over here! XD :P
[01:00] <adueppen> oh yeah that
[01:00] <tsimonq2> XD
[01:01] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: how have you been?
[01:01] <mikeputnam> good! you?
[01:01] <tsimonq2> awesoe :D
[01:01] <tsimonq2> *awesome
[01:01] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: have any fun projects that you have been working on?
[01:01] <mikeputnam> unrelated to anything, this is a neat .js library that can do amazing visualizations: http://paperjs.org/examples/
[01:02] <tsimonq2> oh cool
[01:02] <mikeputnam> the nyan rainbow one is particularly neat
[01:02] <adueppen> Just a heads-up, I won't be talking much here since I'm doing QA. I swear I'm not turning into Simon.
[01:02] <mikeputnam> audio volume incr/decr with the visual
[01:02] <tsimonq2> adueppen: XD wot m8? :P
[01:02] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: ha ha cool :D
[01:02] <adueppen> tsimonq2: I'm doing that task
[01:03] <tsimonq2> oh ok :)
[01:03] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: oh WOW that's AWESOME LOL
[01:03] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: neat :)
[01:04] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: so have you worked on anything notable this past few weeks?
[01:04] <adueppen> Actually i will still be talking a bit since i have my tablet here
[01:04] <tsimonq2> or have you found out something cool that you can do with your Ubuntu machine, mikeputnam?
[01:04] <tsimonq2> adueppen: same goes for you :)
[01:04] <mikeputnam> i've been tinkering on a python rss/atom feed parser thing that will hopefully incite people to edit a wiki by way of playful competition
[01:05] <tsimonq2> ooh, fun :)
[01:05] <adueppen> I've been working on Google Code-in
[01:05] <adueppen> And I made my wiki page
[01:05] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: you have anything to link us, or are you just describing the concept? :)
[01:05] <tsimonq2> adueppen: yay! link?
[01:05] <mikeputnam> backstory: i wrote an emailer script (python) that i run on a weekly cron that looks up a google calendar for the current week's events and sends an email to our Makerspace's mailing list
[01:06] <adueppen> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/adueppen I think that's the right link, i
[01:06] <tsimonq2> oh that's pretty SWEET, mikeputnam :D
[01:06] <mikeputnam> just adding the wiki stuff to that
[01:06] <adueppen> Had ti hand-type that
[01:06] <adueppen> To*
[01:06] <tsimonq2> adueppen: cool :D
[01:07] <tsimonq2> adueppen: you might want to add a little more content, it looks a bit blank
[01:07] <tsimonq2> and you would be surprised what you can put on there
[01:07] <adueppen> I know, I'll be working on it this weekend
[01:07] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: any recommendations from you about adueppen's wiki page?
[01:08] <mikeputnam> here is an example of the email output (before wiki)
[01:08] <mikeputnam> - Make the Space! Monday 6:00PM-10:00PM
[01:08] <mikeputnam> -
[01:08] <mikeputnam> oops
[01:09] <mikeputnam> http://i.imgur.com/xncfpkZ.png
[01:09] <mikeputnam> that ^
[01:09] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: oh cool, so what have you been adding to it?
[01:10] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: will it now output to a wiki page?
[01:10] <tsimonq2> or what?
[01:11] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: I just don't know how the wiki page aspect fits into this, that's all
[01:11] <mikeputnam> it will read the Recent Changes RSS feed for our makerspace's wiki
[01:11] <tsimonq2> oh cool :)
[01:11] <mikeputnam> then show a "leaderboard" of who edited the most
[01:11] <tsimonq2> ha that's cool
[01:12] <mikeputnam> (hopefully inciting people to want to compete to edit more)
[01:12] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: speaking of leaderboards, look at what I am on top of for Xenial: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/reports/testers
[01:12] <mikeputnam> winning!
[01:12] <tsimonq2> number one tester for Xenial :D
[01:13] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: and #80 for all time: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/reports/testers/top100
[01:13] <tsimonq2> gonna get to (at least) #20 before Juse, when I apply for membership
[01:14] <tsimonq2> *June
[01:14] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: but cool concept, keep us updated :)
[01:14] <adueppen> Welp found an issue with the testing here
[01:14] <tsimonq2> adueppen: ruh roh, what did you do?
[01:14] <adueppen> The manual partitioning testcase
[01:15] <tsimonq2> adueppen: talk to me in Hangouts
[01:16] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: besides the system requirements on the flavors being wrong, do you have anything to suggest for http://ubuntu-wisconsin.org/?
[01:17] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: my goal is to get it finished by our next meeting
[01:18] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: and adueppen is doing/did some artwork for it
[01:18] <tsimonq2> it looks great so far :)
[01:19] <mikeputnam> looking good!
[01:19] <tsimonq2> yay!
[01:20] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: and if looking it over, you find a typo or something, here is the Github link: https://github.com/wisconsinlinux/wisconsinlinux.github.io
[01:20] <mikeputnam> one piece of feedback: at first glance, i didn't notice the heading/menu and just saw the "work in progress" thinking there wasn't much to see
[01:21] <mikeputnam> tsimonq2: that's the link to the one i maintain  ;)
[01:21] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: so how could that be fixed?
[01:21] <tsimonq2> whoops wrong link, sorry :)
[01:21] <mikeputnam> (well... we maintain)
[01:22] <tsimonq2> https://github.com/ubuntuwisconsin/ubuntuwisconsin.github.io
[01:22] <tsimonq2> heh I got it ;)
[01:22] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: I am going to put more information on the home page
[01:23] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: but any code suggestions?
[01:23] <mikeputnam> totally subjective, but I'd put the http://ubuntu-wisconsin.org/AboutUbuntu/ first paragraph on the main page
[01:23] <tsimonq2> that's my plan :)
[01:23] <mikeputnam> and the "What does it look like?" section
[01:24] <tsimonq2> yeah, I gotta go through and fix a couple things with those images :)
[01:24] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: but does that seem like all?
[01:25] <mikeputnam> yes i think that would be a great start to a page that is aimed at non-ubuntu users.
[01:25] <tsimonq2> ok :)\
[01:25] <mikeputnam> check out ubuntu! here's what it is!
[01:26] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: on our next informal IRC meeting as well as the main monthly one, I am gonna ask for more input
[01:26] <tsimonq2> but yeah, my goal is to be able to link a newbie to this and for them to walk out being able to install it and/or get support
[01:26] <tsimonq2> that was the goal of the site, right?
[01:27] <mikeputnam> yes i think so
[01:28] <tsimonq2> ok, good
[01:28] <tsimonq2> and speaking of the next meeting, I prepared a wiki page along with some agenda items
[01:29] <tsimonq2> adueppen, mikeputnam: So maybe you should check it out and give feedback on the agenda items and the wiki page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/WisconsinTeam/20160108
[01:29] <tsimonq2> your choice
[01:29] <tsimonq2> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[01:30] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: I also plan on working with adueppen to get the Quick Start page good to go
[01:30] <tsimonq2> so I think that is it
[01:31] <adueppen> and I'm still here doing QA if you need to say something to me
[01:31] <tsimonq2> unless someone has another cool thing to link us to, I think we can conclude this little informal meeting
[01:31] <tsimonq2> adueppen: ok :)
[01:31] <tsimonq2> adueppen: just read the logs :)
[01:31] <tsimonq2> ok, that seems to be it. thanks guys, and see you around! :)
[01:32] <tsimonq2> I will put the above logs on the wiki page for general consumption ^
[01:32] <adueppen> tsimonq2: bye
[01:32] <tsimonq2> bai
[01:40] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: BTW, can you make LUG calendar entries for our weekly informal IRC meetings?
[01:41] <mikeputnam> sure
[01:42] <tsimonq2> thanks :)
[01:44] <mikeputnam> added
[01:45] <tsimonq2> cool :D
[01:45] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: and do you think it would be beneficial to add the wiki page for our next meeting on the GC event, or not?
[01:45] <tsimonq2> http://v.gd/IPpjvB < the GC entry
[01:46] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: and also, we won't have a meeting on the 25th, so if you could remove that specific GC entry, that would be great
[01:46] <tsimonq2> thanks :)
[01:47] <mikeputnam> it already has the wiki page in the description
[01:47] <tsimonq2> oh ok :)
[01:48] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: and is it possible in GC to specify to not have the IRC GC entry on the second Friday of each month, or would you have to delete them manually?
[01:55] <adueppen> So both of these QA tests have been failures. If anything goes wrong during the third one (making sure the live session works) then something is seriously wrong
[01:57] <mikeputnam> I think I got it.  had to create separate repeating events on 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th weeks
[01:57] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: ok, cool
[01:57] <tsimonq2> thanks :)
[01:58] <mikeputnam> welcome
[01:58] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: aaand look at February 26
[01:58] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: as well as the monthly meeting doesn't repeat
[02:00] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: and May 27, and March 25 :P
[02:00]  * tsimonq2 keeps mikeputnam on his feet :D
[02:02] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: and June 24 :P
[02:02] <tsimonq2> And August 26
[02:03] <tsimonq2> mikeputnam: that will be it for amount of duplicate GC events I am going to bother you about for now ;)
[02:06] <mikeputnam> upon further review, that duplication will have to do
[02:06] <tsimonq2> aww ok
[02:07] <mikeputnam> it forces the repeat to be "last friday of month" but some months have 5 some have 4
[02:07] <mikeputnam> so they collide with the "4th friday" months
[02:07] <mikeputnam> better 2 reminders than none; i think
[02:34] <tsimonq2> yeah :)
