tsimonq2oh mai gawd...this one article has like 5 different camel case incidents in it...00:07
tsimonq2pleia2: done 1-13, former half of 14 (haven't removed WORK IN PROGRESS yet), and 15, waiting for your editor check before I proceed with the acutal releasing part, let me know00:12
tsimonq2*actual00:12
tsimonq2pleia2: (heh not the first couple, but you get what I mean ;) )00:15
pleia2tsimonq2: thanks, I'll review now00:18
tsimonq2pleia2: yeah we had the new guy again, so the summaries might not be up to par, but it reads good enough :)00:19
tsimonq2pleia2: wxl did a review of it, he pointed out a couple of things, and I already asked Unit193 for the link check00:20
* wxl did NOT proof the text00:20
tsimonq2ahh yes :)00:20
tsimonq2s/review/ minimal, brief review/00:21
pleia2tsimonq2: btw, we prefer `` to ! when fixing camel case00:23
pleia2so Lo``Co etc rather than !LoCo00:23
tsimonq2oh? why's that?00:23
pleia2the scripts tend to handle it better00:23
tsimonq2ahh I see :)00:24
pleia2a lot of these are not written like "so-and-so reports" so I'm having to do a fair amount of editing00:27
tsimonq2ohhhh jeez I'm sorry, should have reviewed better00:28
tsimonq2again, new guy ;)00:28
wxlthat was my bad, pleia200:28
wxl(the camelcase)00:28
tsimonq2wxl: how so?00:28
wxli've gotten used to ! and specifically suggested that00:29
tsimonq2yeah me too :P00:29
wxlmaybe a comment at the top to that effect might be good00:29
tsimonq2+100:29
tsimonq2I'll edit the template unless you object, pleia200:29
pleia2tsimonq2: sure00:31
pleia2btw, Stéphane Graber is a "him" and not a "her" ;)00:31
tsimonq2yeah, refresh00:31
tsimonq2I got that, Leonard might have not ;)00:31
pleia2refresh what?00:31
pleia2is someone editing at the same time I am? :(00:32
tsimonq2page, I corrected it00:32
wxli said that!00:32
* pleia2 sighs00:32
tsimonq2and I corrected it, wxl :P00:32
pleia2lots of edit conflicts now00:32
tsimonq2I'm not editing it00:32
tsimonq2not now00:32
wxlnot me00:32
tsimonq2haven't been since I proposed it to you00:32
pleia2?00:32
tsimonq2*shrug*00:32
tsimonq2idk where you are seeing that but I thought I corrected that00:32
tsimonq2that's what I'm saying00:32
tsimonq2no need to be worried ;)00:32
pleia2but no, it wasn't corrected00:33
tsimonq2are there multiple articles from him?00:33
tsimonq2I only corrected one...00:33
wxlthere were 200:33
pleia2tsimonq2: also, be sure to not add the "In this issue" table of contents or to remove all the comments at the top of the document until just before we publish00:33
tsimonq2wxl: oh well then I didn't get that :)00:34
pleia2I sometimes have to edit titles, and that changes what ends up in the "in this issue" section, which means I have to edit twice x_x00:34
tsimonq2pleia2: alright, so I should wait until after you ack it?00:34
pleia2tsimonq2: yep00:34
tsimonq2alright, now I know :)00:34
pleia2tsimonq2: did you accidentally remove the glossary of terms?00:42
tsimonq2uhhhhhhhh?00:43
tsimonq2yeah...00:43
pleia2adding it back00:43
tsimonq2alright, nice catch, whoops :)00:43
pleia2no problem00:43
pleia2was this all the blogosphere articles? I thought there were more...00:44
tsimonq2yep00:44
tsimonq2directly copy/pasted from the doc00:44
pleia2any reason you omitted http://www.linux-magazine.com/Online/Blogs/Off-the-Beat-Bruce-Byfield-s-Blog/Why-the-Ubuntu-tablet-matters ?00:45
tsimonq2lemme reread, I think I had a reason, hold on...00:45
tsimonq2well it looks really basic, but I don't think I did that on purpose...00:46
pleia2please just mention it here if you do, you're making me paranoid ;)00:46
* tsimonq2 needs to stop using his scroll wheel!00:46
tsimonq2button00:47
pleia2have time to write a quick summary for this? I can if not00:47
tsimonq2well I'll do it00:47

tsimonq2Welcome to the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter, Issue 460 for the week March 28 - April 3, 2016 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue46000:56
tsimonq2*ahem*00:56
tsimonq2:)00:56
tsimonq2pleia2: wait isn't doing the wiki first out of order? e_____e00:57
tsimonq2:P00:57
tsimonq2mind if I go in order?00:57
pleia2tsimonq2: that's fine00:58
tsimonq2alright :)00:58
pleia2you should be able to post to the forums this week00:58
pleia2PaulW2U discovered a thing while doing it though, need to make sure you use plain text mode or something similar, let me see...00:58
tsimonq2alright00:59
tsimonq2which forum?00:59
pleia2ubuntuforums.org00:59
tsimonq2oh I was looking for http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=24300:59
tsimonq2mind putting that on the checklist?00:59
pleia2>01:00
pleia2?01:00
pleia2that is ubuntuforums.org ;)01:00
pleia2do you have the ability to unstick the previous issue?01:01
tsimonq2uhh I don't think so...01:01
pleia2go to: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=231873001:01
pleia2then at the top right of the thread there is an Administrative dropdown menu01:01
tsimonq2alright01:02
pleia2select "Unstick thread" and then click "Proceed"01:02
pleia2if you have that ability :)01:02
pleia2should as a forum admin, but this forum confounds me01:02
tsimonq2okay, I'll do it after I publish01:02
tsimonq2right?01:02
pleia2no, you'll want to do it first01:03
pleia2unstick old one, then publish new one as the only sticky thread01:03
tsimonq2k01:03
tsimonq2AHA01:03
tsimonq2there01:03
pleia2great :)01:04
tsimonq2I'll publish that now, looks good to me01:04
pleia2I couldn't find the bit about using plain text mode, you mostly want to make sure it looks similar to other ones that have been posted, not too many newlines01:05
pleia2when you preview it01:05
pleia2looks good :)01:05
tsimonq2step 19, the most nerveracking step IMO01:06
pleia2the email ones bug me the most, can't fix mistakes there x_x01:06
tsimonq2how do I get to the wordpress site to publish that?01:06
tsimonq2AHA01:07
pleia2https://fridge.ubuntu.com/wp-admin01:07
tsimonq2just SITE/wp-admin01:07
pleia2we don't publish it all over the place because spam01:07
pleia2yeah01:07
tsimonq2yeah01:07
tsimonq2news and planet categories?01:07
pleia2yep01:08
pleia2when you get to discourse, when I mentioned last week that it automatically inserts new lines that you need to deal with, I meant how yours looks http://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter-issue-459/2511 vs earlier ones http://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter-issue-458/246701:10
tsimonq2alright01:10
pleia2so you need to remove a lot of newslines, since it's overly helpful in adding more x_x01:10
tsimonq2the script doesn't like Mr. Graber (don't have correct keyboard layout to type first name :P)01:11
tsimonq2doesn't accent anything01:11
pleia2yeah01:12
pleia2tricky characters like that are why we have to check the links01:12
tsimonq2awesome, looks good, *DEEP* *BREATH* ...and publish01:13
tsimonq2OH WAIT01:13
tsimonq2before I do that01:13
tsimonq2forgot credits01:13
tsimonq2whew01:13
tsimonq2thank god I know HTML01:14
pleia2script didn't pick them up?01:14
tsimonq2nope01:14
tsimonq2had to manually put the li tags01:15
pleia2ok, I'll dig into why01:15
tsimonq2there on to discourse, reading above comment again01:15
pleia2tsimonq2: oh, we lost "And many others" from the credits :(01:16
pleia2you'll want to add it back to the wiki, and forums and fridge posts01:16
pleia2that's how the script knows it's the end of the list, and fails when it's missing01:17
pleia2I should have caught that one in my review01:17
pleia2will need to be added to the ubuntu-news.email too01:18
tsimonq2alright01:18
tsimonq2you mind doing that or are you busy?01:18
pleia2I can't edit the forums post or your local ubuntu-news.email01:18
pleia2I can do fridge and wiki if needed01:18
tsimonq2oh okay01:18
tsimonq2could you do that? easier for me. :)01:19
pleia2sure01:19
tsimonq2cool :)01:19

pleia2ok, wiki and fridge updated01:20
tsimonq2alright01:21
tsimonq2Discourse published, changing Forums now01:24
pleia2looks good :)01:26
tsimonq2awesome, if you need to go to bed, I think I'm good :)01:27
tsimonq2I just have to get email and wiki pages01:27
pleia2I'll need to approve the ubuntu-news email01:27
tsimonq2oh okay, then I'll do that now01:27
tsimonq2so you can get to bed ;)01:27
pleia2I can wait01:28
tsimonq2there you go01:29
pleia2ooh, the fridge post for the newsletter went to the planet quickly, maybe they finally fixed up the caching between servers :)01:29
tsimonq2oh whoops didn't see that until now ;)01:29
tsimonq2aha!01:29
tsimonq2yay!01:29
tsimonq2back on track, I think you can go to bed now if you need, the rest I can handle :)01:30
pleia2working on some announcements that need to be posted to the fridge real quick01:31
pleia2so I'll be around for a few more minutes01:32
tsimonq2k :)01:32
tsimonq221 and 22 should really be combined into one01:32
tsimonq221 22 and 2401:33
tsimonq2pleia2: there, all published, doing 1-301:39
tsimonq2pleia2: get well soon, after this I'm gonna do other stuff for a while then bed, thanks for your help and patience today, especially given the state of the page and the fact that you are sick. Have a good night! :)01:40
pleia2thanks for publishing!01:43
tsimonq2no problem at all! :)01:44
pleia2tsimonq2: doh, "and much more" --- people aren't much, they are many01:45
pleia2can't fix the email that went out, but you'll want to check on the forums01:46
pleia2looks like you got it right on the forums01:46
pleia2not sure what happened with the email01:46
pleia2(see, this is why the email is the most stressful one)01:46
tsimonq2*sigh* *shrug*01:47
tsimonq2so01:47
tsimonq2what can I fix?01:47
pleia2nothing to do01:47
pleia2forums are ok, and can't fix email01:48
tsimonq2IMHO nobody will notice it, but it's good to watch out for in the future01:48
tsimonq2right?01:48
pleia2hep01:48
pleia2yep01:48
pleia2should be fine as long as it doesn't get erased from the wiki before the scripts are run01:48
tsimonq2alright :)01:49
tsimonq2alright, 1-3 is done, all prepped, I think I'm done here! :)01:49
pleia2great, thanks01:49
pleia2added IRC Council results and Tech Board nominees emails to the fridge01:51
tsimonq2so you think I'm ready to do it unsupervised, besides final editing check? or do we still have kinks to work out? and if the latter is true, do you want me to release again another time? (probably not next week, I want to give you a chance to release again, not to give Softpedia any ideas (:P), unless you want me to do it again)01:51
pleia2we can probably trade off as schedules dictate01:53
tsimonq2yeah, what do you have in mind?01:53
pleia2probably some kinks to work out still, the fridge script gave some errors that should have notified you to the fact that the credits didn't work01:53
pleia2so keeping an eye on stuff like that is important01:53
pleia2but we should talk about this later01:54
pleia2time for bed :)01:54
tsimonq2have a good night, let's talk tomorrow :)01:54
