pleia2jose: have some time to add this to the fridge? https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-irc/2016-January/001834.html22:30
pleia2I can do later if needed22:30
josepleia2: I'll work on it in a bit, no worries :)22:30
pleia2ty :)22:32
tsimonq2pleia2: what's up with the newsletter?22:34
tsimonq2pleia2: aren't the summaries usually on the document?22:34
pleia2tsimonq2: I haven't added links yet22:35
tsimonq2oh ok22:35
pleia2tsimonq2: I'll send out an email when it's ready for summaries to be written :)22:35
pleia2(still at work, will likely work on it in a couple hours)22:36
tsimonq2pleia2: anything I can do to help with this?22:37
pleia2tsimonq2: you're always welcome to add links to the document22:37
pleia2if you find news, add it22:37
pleia2I go through and audit everything added anyway before I send it off to summary writers, so I'll delete or re-arrange if something doesn't look right22:37
tsimonq2pleia2: but me question is, the articles/sources from you are consistent...what are they? then I can start adding stuff on to make it faster for you22:38
tsimonq2as in the sources22:38
pleia2https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/LinkSuggestions22:38
pleia2I also search google news: https://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu#q=ubuntu&tbm=nws22:39
joseif you find something that's interesting, feel free to add it22:39
pleia2and grab things people share on G+, twitter, whatever22:39
tsimonq2alright22:39
tsimonq2I will get started22:39
tsimonq2pleia2: and why dosn't the document use Ubuntu font? :P22:41
wxltsimonq2: at that rate, why don't we use pad.ubutnu.com? XD22:42
tsimonq2:P XD22:42
tsimonq2o/ wxl22:42
pleia2tsimonq2: too much work, I just use the defaults22:42
tsimonq2heh ok22:43
tsimonq2pleia2: for the blog articles, do I just do ones about specific Ubuntu stuff, or just all of the Planet articles?22:45
pleia2tsimonq2: only the ubuntu ones22:45
pleia2and not "how to" articles, only news22:45
tsimonq2gotcha22:46
Unit193jose: Thanks for posting that.22:46
joseUnit193: IRCC? sure :)22:46
pleia2this is a how-to, not news: "Managing my books" http://www.kryogenix.org/days/2016/01/13/managing-my-books/22:47
pleia2this is news: http://scarlettgatelyclark.com/2016/kde-kubuntu-status-update-patreon-and-donations-notifications/22:47
tsimonq2ahh gotcha22:47
tsimonq2I see22:47
pleia2tsimonq2: and softpedia articles are blogosphere (not press)22:48
pleia2press is like, forbes, new york times, even PC World22:48
pleia2if it's not a famous/long-lived publisher, it's a blog22:48
tsimonq2ohhhhh22:49
tsimonq2ok22:49
pleia2you'll also want to look at insights.ubuntu.com22:49
pleia2does the fiercewireless.com add any kind of new material or information than what the insights article offers?22:49
pleia2if not, don't include it, just include the insights.ubuntu.com link22:50
tsimonq2gotcha22:50
pleia2I would probably put this one In The Press: http://blogs.wsj.com/cio/2016/01/13/att-adopts-canonicals-ubuntu-in-push-to-replace-proprietary-systems-with-open-source-tech/22:50
pleia2that one is confusing because it's the Wall Street Journal "blog", but wsj is weird22:50
pleia2oh, tsk, the WSJ one is behind a pay wall :(22:51
pleia2so much for that!22:51
tsimonq2yeah I have been kinda following that story22:51
tsimonq2I saw that :P22:51
tsimonq2but I just went with the insights article22:52
* pleia2 nods22:52
pleia2and that should go under "Ubuntu Cloud News"22:52
pleia2since it's an official source about cloud things22:52
pleia2(official source == from planet ubuntu, from any URL on canonical.com or *.ubuntu.com)22:53
* pleia2 thumbs up22:53
pleia2ok, I need to work on Work now22:53
tsimonq2pleia2: and since summaries won't go there, what should the formatting look like?22:53
pleia2 * AT&T selects Ubuntu for cloud and enterprise applications - http://insights.ubuntu.com/2016/01/13/att-selects-ubuntu-for-cloud-and-enterprise-applications/22:53
tsimonq2ahh gotcha, ok, thanks pleia222:54
pleia2sure, thanks for helping out with this, much appreciated22:54
pleia2don't be offended if I delete things later ;) softpedia publishes *a lot* and so I usually only do a selection of their high quality articles22:54
tsimonq2ahh gotcha :)22:56
tsimonq2glad I can help :)22:56
tsimonq2pleia2: would this be included? found it on the Planet22:56
tsimonq2http://carla-sella.blogspot.com/2016/01/rockwork-ubuntu-clockwork-for-pebble.html22:56
pleia2tsimonq2: that one is kind of borderline :\22:57
tsimonq2pleia2: which is why I wanted to ask22:58
pleia2it's kind of a how-to, but it's also introducing a cool phone app22:58
tsimonq2yeah22:58
tsimonq2blogosphere?22:58
pleia2you can put it under Ubuntu Phone News for now22:58
tsimonq2ok :)22:59
tsimonq2I like this SO MUCH better than summary writing, although I am still gonna help out with that :)23:00
tsimonq2pleia2: all articles from Planet are good to go23:02
tsimonq2pleia2: putting this under LoCo News: http://insights.ubuntu.com/2016/01/15/ubuntu-is-coming-to-a-city-near-you/23:07
pleia2tsimonq2: hm, we should confirm that it's being coordinated with LoCos23:08
pleia2sometimes Canonical just does their own thing23:08
Unit193Sometiems?23:08
pleia2Unit193 :)23:08
* pleia2 asks23:09
tsimonq2pleia2: what's the difference between blogosphere and Planet?23:09
pleia2tsimonq2: planet comes from planet.ubuntu.com23:09
pleia2blogosphere is everyone else23:09
tsimonq2ahhh gotcha23:09
tsimonq2pleia2: what about this? http://insights.ubuntu.com/2016/01/12/mojo-updates/23:09
tsimonq2it seems like it's talking about updates23:10
tsimonq2so *I* would put it, but I wanted to double-check23:10
pleia2tsimonq2: cloud23:10
tsimonq2gotcha thanks :)23:10
josepleia2: for that event, the evening sessions you have to pay for23:12
pleia2jose: yeah23:12
pleia2I think there are drink tickets on thursday night, but you need to buy food23:12
pleia2jose: oh, *that*23:13
joseyep, that :P23:13
pleia2jose: lost the thread, I see you're talking about the canonical thing23:13
joseyeah, I'll talk to Jorge about it when I see him23:13
pleia2I think it goes in Canonical News then23:13
tsimonq2pleia2: looking around and I found this: http://wire.kubuntu.org/?p=94023:18
tsimonq2assuming blogosphere?23:18
tsimonq2or not at all?23:19
pleia2tsimonq2: that was on the planet23:19
pleia2so planet :)23:19
tsimonq2ohh ok23:19
pleia2but honestly, it's not a great article23:19
tsimonq2yeah23:19
pleia2a title and not much content23:19
tsimonq2so I might not even include it23:19
pleia2so I wouldn't include it :\23:19
tsimonq2yeah because it's so bare23:20
tsimonq2pleia2: uhh Launchpad News? where is THAT? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/LinkSuggestions23:21
tsimonq2plus there are no updates :P23:21
pleia2tsimonq2: it no longer exists23:21
pleia2yeah, because that23:21
pleia2they used to have a lovely blog and would update us on news23:21
pleia2the blog gets updated sometimes, but now it just lands in Planet23:22
tsimonq2yeah23:22
tsimonq2pleia2: what about Ubuntu Forums News?23:22
pleia2that doesn't exist anymore either23:22
pleia2if there is UF news (hasn't been in a while) it would go in "Other Community News" if it's not on the planet23:23
tsimonq2oh ok23:23
tsimonq2pleia2: would Slashdot Linux be a good source for blogosphere and/or other articles of interest?23:30
pleia2tsimonq2: I'm not familiar with it23:30
pleia2if it's got articles about ubuntu, sure23:30
wxlit depends23:31
tsimonq2pleia2: I have used it for ages, but check it out when you have a chance :)23:31
wxlsome articles from slashdot are informative23:31
wxlsome are speculative23:31
tsimonq2yeah, as it's community-sourced23:31
tsimonq2wxl: but SOME are good23:31
wxli do like slashdot a lot, though23:31
tsimonq2yeah23:31
wxli used it to find out an answer to a very tricky question last night23:31
tsimonq2XD23:32
wxl(namely whether or not mailman munging from fields truly violates RFC 5322 and whether or not that's something to be concerned about)23:33
tsimonq2pleia2: putting a good amount of OMG Ubuntu! articles in the Blogosphere, so you can sort through the good ones :)23:34
tsimonq2pleia2: the blogosphere is pretty much complete, I think no more articles need to be added23:45
tsimonq2pleia2: Ubuntu Community Q&A is in the featured Audio and Video23:46
tsimonq2pleia2: and what goes in In Other News, and where should I find this stuff?23:46
tsimonq2pleia2: well either way I think I'm done...I looked at all of the sites on the link you sent me, so I put a good 20 articles. I hope I helped! :)23:48
pleia2tsimonq2: usually In Other News is just where full circle magazine goes, it's empty if they don't have a release that week23:49
tsimonq2pleia2: ahh ok23:50
tsimonq2pleia2: but take a glance, are there any other sources I should look look at? and did I miss anything?23:50
pleia2tsimonq2: I really can't right now, work :( I can look in a bit23:51
tsimonq2pleia2: alright :)23:51
tsimonq2pleia2: I would really like to help with this more often if possible, and I just want suggestions :)23:51
tsimonq2wxl: FINALLY! my "link spamming abilities" are becoming useful! :D XD23:54
wxltsimonq2: :X23:54
tsimonq2(joking)23:56
tsimonq2:P23:56
