[05:19] <pleia2> Unit193: link check? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue459
[05:20] <tsimonq2> pleia2: summaries good? :)
[05:21] <pleia2> sent to editors
[05:21] <pleia2> tsimonq2: yep
[05:21] <pleia2> tsimonq2: thought you'd be asleep by now, but we can go over what I did tonight tomorrow :)
[05:22] <pleia2> I am tired, long weekend followed a long week
[05:22] <tsimonq2> yes, I'm factoring trinomials e__e
[05:22] <tsimonq2> alright pleia2 :)
[05:23] <tsimonq2> pleia2: night :)
[05:28] <Unit193> Lookin' good.
[23:02] <tsimonq2> pleia2: you ready? :)
[23:02] <pleia2> tsimonq2: need a few more minutes, work stuff carrying on
[23:02] <tsimonq2> pleia2: alright, ping me when you are ready :)
[23:03] <pleia2> tsimonq2: in the meantime, you can pull down the bzr repo from lp:uwn
[23:03] <tsimonq2> alright :)
[23:03] <pleia2> you'll likely need some dependencies satisfied to run the scripts
[23:08] <tsimonq2> pleia2: I see emails in the script, do I need sendmail or mutt or something configured?
[23:08] <pleia2> tsimonq2: no, the emails are sent manually
[23:08] <tsimonq2> alright :)
[23:08] <pleia2> need to spot check them before sending
[23:08] <tsimonq2> that's good :D
[23:30] <pleia2> sorry, got tied up with a debugging session I really need to finish, not sure when it'll be done, it'll be done when it's fixed x_x
[23:31] <tsimonq2> alright :)
[23:46] <pleia2> fixed \o/
[23:46] <pleia2> ok, UWN
[23:46] <pleia2> tsimonq2: so, I'll first go through what I did last night
[23:47] <pleia2> we can look at the checklist here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/EditingPolicies
[23:48] <pleia2> steps 1-3 were just wiki prep, I sometimes do those at the end actually so the wiki page is ready for the next week, but not always
[23:48] <pleia2> 4-6 are done Fri-Sun, as you know
[23:49] <pleia2> I started 7 last night (and it continues since we email the other editors), usually what I do is proof read in the Google doc and they copy the summaries over to the wiki
[23:50] <pleia2> this checklist doesn't have the scripts in it! editing
[23:50] <tsimonq2> alright, let me know when it's done :)
[23:54] <pleia2> tsimonq2: ok, better
[23:54] <pleia2> so, for #8 on add statistics, I should explain how that's done
[23:55] <pleia2> look at the raw text for our issue template: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/IssueTemplate?action=raw
[23:55] <tsimonq2> k looking :)
[23:55] <pleia2> this has documentation on how to run each script for each section, the template is what we make each issue with, so as your editing the wiki, you can see what scripts we run for each thing
[23:56] <pleia2> we can come back to this later (after publishing), but you'll want to do a trial of running all these scripts to make sure you have all dependencies installed, maybe you can do them next Sunday if you're available
[23:57] <pleia2> so anyway, I pretty much just follow the instructions to run all those scripts, pasting the output into the wiki
[23:57] <tsimonq2> I see, you already did that?
[23:57] <pleia2> yep
[23:58] <pleia2> once everything looks good, I move on to step 9, which is when I ask our friend Unit193 to check the links work and I don't always do proper spell checking as #10 says, because the google doc is pretty good at picking up things earlier than that step, I keep the step in so we're mindful of it
[23:58] <pleia2> step 11 has me emailing the secret list of editors, I can share that document with you
[23:58] <pleia2> tsimonq2: what's your google/gmail account to share with?
[23:58] <Unit193> I had a ping.  I have no idea what's going on.
[23:58] <pleia2> Unit193: disregard, thanks for your work
[23:59] <tsimonq2> pleia2: tsimonq2@u.c, it's connected to my Google account :)
[23:59] <pleia2> tsimonq2: the most super important thing about these docs I share with you, is that they are a list of email addresses that our volunteers trust us with, always use Bcc: when contacting them, never To: or Cc:
[23:59] <Unit193> Looks like you're teaching publishing, alright.
