[03:09]  * tsimonq2 really needs to get involved with writing summaries more
[03:09] <tsimonq2> I'll do that for this next issue
[03:10] <tsimonq2> Leaving all the work for Chris isn't good :(
[03:13] <guiverc_t> i've written a huge % of summaries (since #425), we need writers given i'm spending time elsewhere now
[03:13] <tsimonq2> Exactly
[03:13] <tsimonq2> I don't want to have you burned out
[03:13] <tsimonq2> Something needs to be done...
[03:14] <tsimonq2> I have ideas but I'll put it on my todo list to mess with tomorrow
[03:14] <guiverc_t> i still think the uwn has merit even without summaries... yes better with; but that needs writers..
[03:15] <guiverc_t> note lengths of 'script' info -- some are longer for week two: ???
[03:15] <tsimonq2> I'll take care of all of that tonight
[03:16] <tsimonq2> But we need a recruiting call for UWN
[03:16] <guiverc_t> concur.
[03:17] <tsimonq2> Eek, nobody posted Beta 1 announcement to the fridge, doing
[03:18] <guiverc_t> maybe i need to know how ... i could do it also?
[03:20] <tsimonq2> pleia2: Could I please be added to ~ubuntu-news-leadership?
[03:21] <tsimonq2> guiverc_t: I can take care of it this time but next time I'll be sure to show you
[03:21] <tsimonq2> (I don't have access to add you to the Launchpad team to have access)
[03:22] <guiverc_t> tsimonq2, i don't have permission according to pleia2 (long ago)
[03:23] <tsimonq2> Yep that's right
[03:23] <tsimonq2> But
[03:23] <tsimonq2> Adding me to ~ubuntu-news-leadership gives me permission to grant you permission
[03:23] <tsimonq2> Or she could do it as well
[03:23] <tsimonq2> Either way, I'm +1 on you getting access
[03:23] <guiverc_t> :)  thanks tsimonq2
[03:25] <tsimonq2> guiverc_t: Ideally I think we should get to the point where both me and you have access to do everything from start to finish so if there's ever a time where I have an emergency or something along those lines, you can just publish :)
[03:25] <pleia2> tsimonq2: done
[03:25] <tsimonq2> pleia2: Thanks!
[03:25] <tsimonq2> guiverc_t: Plus it'll give us both access to do everything should we decide to switch it up one weel
[03:25] <tsimonq2> s/weel/week/
[03:25] <pleia2> as far as summary writers, it is hard, but I don't think it would be off the mark to mention the need for volunteers on the twitter account once a month or so
[03:26] <tsimonq2> pleia2: wfm
[03:26] <tsimonq2> I'll think and sort that all out tomorrow
[03:26] <tsimonq2> First day of school today, been brutal, I plan on finishing this up and going to bed...
[03:26] <pleia2> I will see about queuing up a blog post about it too, I can't get back to contributing just yet, but I can explain why it's a valuable effort, etc etc
[03:27] <tsimonq2> That would be great
[03:27] <tsimonq2> I can write something too
[03:28] <tsimonq2> pleia2: Thanks again
[03:30] <tsimonq2> guiverc_t: Ok, once I get everything squared away here (full editorial review, double check scripts, etc.), since I just added you to the team that has access to the Fridge posting, I can walk you through if you're up for it?
[03:32] <guiverc_t> yep .. yell when ready..
[03:32] <tsimonq2> Ok
[03:46] <tsimonq2> guiverc_t: irt weekly summaries, I think Snapcraft, MaaS, and conjure-up are more Canonical projects than Ubuntu... I'm personally -1 on including them in UWN
[03:46] <tsimonq2> Same with OpenStack
[03:46] <tsimonq2> Foundations I'm OK with because that's core Ubuntu archive updates. Same with the other teams we usually list.
[03:48] <tsimonq2> Otherwise, superb job with that :)
[03:48] <guiverc> which explains last issue (were dropped) ... yeah I agree re: more canonical .. but I'm probably too easy in inclusion generally....
[03:48] <tsimonq2> It's all good :)
[03:49] <guiverc> pleia2: has written about (pre 500) english (well-written) decision I think let go, looking at content & ignoring lang|grammar|syntax
[03:51] <tsimonq2> (fwiw I personally consider Snapcraft a Canonical project, not an Ubuntu one particularly, so I'll typically put articles about that in the Canonical sections, unsure what pleia2's stance about it is (feel free to give input) but for now unless someone disagrees we should go with that)
[03:52] <guiverc> yep|ack
[03:53] <tsimonq2> I remember why I dislike two week UWNs, it's a lot of work to do :P
[03:54] <tsimonq2> (i.e. why I'd like to prevent doing two-week issues because I simply don't have the time some nights, which was the case last week and a couple times when I was first starting out doing this regularly, I'm getting in the groove of things and figuring out my time management a lot better, but me not getting to it because of school and other things shouldn't be a blocker)
[03:55] <guiverc> school or really just life, will always get in the way --- and can't be prevented even with perfect time mngmt
[03:55] <tsimonq2> True :(
[03:56] <tsimonq2> Meh, but it is what it is
[04:01] <tsimonq2> guiverc: In other news, I've generally been seeing poor quality articles (copying other sites, too brief, etc.) coming out of fossbytes.com, I've not been including them lately, if you could keep a careful eye out for that, that would be great
[04:02] <tsimonq2> (it's all good, but yeah :) )
[04:03] <guiverc> yeah ... (had written before your yeah!) ... concur ... my thoughts i'm still adding to comments in gdoc; which are near-pointless given i'm now pasting to wiki ...
[04:04] <tsimonq2> guiverc: I actually wouldn't be opposed if you could do everything on the doc then let me copy over and send out to editors, or at least make sure all of your comments are on the wiki and the doc is set for next issue :)
[04:06] <tsimonq2> One more note, irt rbasak's and nacc's git ubuntu series, that's Ubuntu news, it'll be a new way to do Ubuntu development :)
[04:11] <tsimonq2> "Bare Metal Kubernetes: More Containers, Less Overhead" by Dustin Kirkland -- that's a bit Canonically, moving from Planet
[04:12] <tsimonq2> And "MAAS 2.3.0 alpha 2 Released!"
[04:12] <guiverc> i put planet sourced articles in planet regardless of whether or not I felt belonged in cano ... will move in future (means they don't need summaries anyway!)
[04:12] <tsimonq2> Ok :)
[04:12] <tsimonq2> "Help needed testing newest bugfix release of Plasma on Kubuntu 17.04" - with my Kubuntu hat on, this is outdated info, removing.
[04:17] <tsimonq2> "Chris Glass: Fixing a lost right-click after switching to 17.10's Gnome 3 and Wayland" - too much of a howto
[04:18] <tsimonq2> Moving "Nathan Handler: freenode #live" to Other Articles of Interest
[04:20] <tsimonq2> "GNOME Tweaks 3.25.91" - not enough Ubuntu stuff
[04:31] <tsimonq2> O____O - we increased *20,000* unconfirmed bugs in two weeks!
[04:31] <tsimonq2> We,, I rounded up, actually 16,000... but still
[04:32] <tsimonq2> s/We,,/Well/
[04:38] <tsimonq2> Going to run it through a link checker guiverc then it should be good to go
[04:40] <tsimonq2> guiverc: Could you please try going here and logging in, making sure the Fridge editors team is checked? http://fridge.ubuntu.com/wp-admin/
[04:41] <guiverc> ack
[04:44] <guiverc> (not quick .. profile & first login stuff..)  but I don't know wordpress enough - nor what to do now sorry
[04:44] <tsimonq2> guiverc: I'll walk you through
[04:44] <guiverc> at fridge .. artful aardvark beta 1 released...
[04:45] <tsimonq2> On the left side there's a menu, hover over "Posts", and click "Add New"
[04:45] <tsimonq2> yep yep
[04:45] <guiverc> top is home, about, ubu..  nothing left, wordpress logo top left in panel-like-thingy  but don't see posts
[04:46] <guiverc> :s/nothing left/nothing to left/
[04:46] <tsimonq2> guiverc: blob:http://imgur.com/c7dabe16-bb37-4219-9eb8-85dba45c5853
[04:46] <tsimonq2> grr
[04:46] <tsimonq2> https://imgur.com/wv7NA9x
[04:47] <tsimonq2> That should be on the left side
[04:47] <tsimonq2> (well, after you click "Posts")
[04:47] <guiverc> nope.. looking for posts..
[04:48] <guiverc> outside of top "wordpress|ubu fridge|5410|new"  - rest looks like fridge (ubu orange+white+black-text & no wordpress stuff)
[04:48] <tsimonq2> Oh
[04:49] <tsimonq2> Are you at http://fridge.ubuntu.com/wp-admin/ ?
[04:49] <tsimonq2> That's probably it
[04:49] <guiverc> nope -- after login the wp-admin got forgotten  .. grr
[04:49] <tsimonq2> :(
[04:49] <guiverc> now @ dashboard & looking
[04:49] <tsimonq2> Oh ok
[04:49] <tsimonq2> guiverc: Yeah you should find it there
[04:50] <guiverc> adding new & now lotsa brown  - empty post.
[04:50] <tsimonq2> Ok
[04:51] <tsimonq2> guiverc: Look similar to this? https://imgur.com/9Fr1LcE
[04:51] <guiverc> yep
[04:51] <tsimonq2> Ok
[04:51] <tsimonq2> Cool
[04:51] <tsimonq2> The title should always be in the format of "Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter Issue XYZ"
[04:52] <guiverc> entering that & permalink added
[04:52] <tsimonq2> Ok
[04:52] <tsimonq2> guiverc: I'll show you the scripts another day, but get this, this is the content of the post: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25476392/
[04:52] <tsimonq2> i.e. copy/paste
[04:53] <tsimonq2> ls
[04:53] <tsimonq2> Whoops
[04:53] <guiverc> copied/pasted
[04:53] <tsimonq2> In the meantime... Welcome to the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter, Issue 518 for the week of August 22 - September 4, 2017 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue518
[04:53] <tsimonq2> guiverc: Ok cool
[04:53] <tsimonq2> guiverc: Now click the preview button and check to make sure all the links are correct
[04:54] <tsimonq2> i.e. sometimes if it's either names or other things in the titles, it messes with the scripts
[04:54] <tsimonq2> So sometimes the links aren't right
[04:54] <tsimonq2> Let me know if you find a bad link
[04:54] <guiverc> preview opened new tab ... in this issue we cover <ul> <li><a href...  in long list
[04:54] <tsimonq2> Yep
[04:55] <tsimonq2> Like I said, check the links in that bullet pointed list :)
[04:55] <guiverc> how check links?
[04:55] <tsimonq2> Just open them in new tabs
[04:55] <guiverc> copy & paste each -- sure not?
[04:55] <tsimonq2> Make sure they jump to the page in the right place
[04:55] <tsimonq2> Middle mouse button for me
[04:55] <tsimonq2> Or Right click open in new tab
[04:56] <guiverc> mine are shown as text; no options to 'open link' avail.
[04:56] <tsimonq2> Could you get me a screenshot of what you see?
[04:57] <guiverc> stretching me here... will try (i live @ term)
[04:57] <tsimonq2> Ok
[04:59] <guiverc> ok grabbed screen - where to paste?
[04:59] <tsimonq2> imgur.com
[05:00] <guiverc> try http://imgur.com/a/ELj7t
[05:00] <tsimonq2> Oh ok
[05:01] <tsimonq2> guiverc: Apologies, I'm running out of time for today :/
[05:01] <guiverc> no probs... thanks for time.
[05:07] <tsimonq2> guiverc: PMed you a quick video of me doing it
[05:08] <tsimonq2> I just have to wake up for school in 6 hours so I'd have to cut it short anyways, sorry :(
[05:08] <guiverc> no explanation necessary tsimonq2
[05:08] <guiverc> perfectly understood.
[05:08] <tsimonq2> Ok, thank you
[05:09] <tsimonq2> Have a good night
[05:09] <tsimonq2> (ugh, forums being weird again, I'll play with it tomorrow)
