| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> @ahoneybun valorie @Sick_Rimmit yofel mamarok: If Michael from tuxdigital does us a release video, are we Ok with it being primarilly pubished on his channel? We then link it and add to our playlists? | 17:15 |
|---|---|---|
| IrcsomeBot | <ahoneybun> Can we cross post it? | 17:16 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> cross post meaning what? | 17:16 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> re-upload? | 17:16 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> Fwd from ahoneybun: Can we cross post it? | 17:21 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> whatever that means ^^^ | 17:21 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> Other question: … 2. What day do you want the promo video released? … Why I am asking: … I was thinking that I might make a full video of me on camera talking about Kubuntu 18.04 and my involvement prior to release and then releasing the promo video on Thursday. | 17:26 |
| IrcsomeBot | <ahoneybun> post it on his channel and our's linking back to his. | 17:27 |
| MichaelTunnell | as long as it isnt posted directly on the Kubuntu channel the rest is fine. If it is added to a playlist then it is great | 17:28 |
| MichaelTunnell | I made the KDE Promo videos for 5.11 and 5.12 = collectively they received 93,389 views for KDE's channel and TuxDigital received 1,968 views and only 320 clicks from links in video description. | 17:29 |
| MichaelTunnell | so I was thinking since Kubuntu isn't really trying to build an audience for this kind of thing but I am, so I am asking because it would be more beneficial to me to post it on my channel. | 17:30 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> I have no objections. seems fair enough in return IMO | 17:30 |
| MichaelTunnell | :thumbup: | 17:30 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> but I would like opinions from here | 17:31 |
| MichaelTunnell | did the emoji work in Telegram when sending from irc? :) | 17:31 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> @MichaelTunnell, nope. fail | 17:31 |
| MichaelTunnell | dang it :( | 17:34 |
| IrcsomeBot | <tsimonq2> @acheronuk, On camera? 😱 | 17:35 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> @tsimonq2, Will it go out late? | 17:37 |
| IrcsomeBot | <tsimonq2> @acheronuk, Idk :{ | 17:45 |
| IrcsomeBot | <tsimonq2> *:) | 17:45 |
| MichaelTunnell | I dont care if Kubuntu wants to upload the video as well and schedule it to release later as a just in case the people who browse on youtube would find it. So maybe schedule to release it 2 weeks later as that would give my channel enough time to generate the views I'd like to get. | 17:46 |
| valorie | imo more news is good news! | 18:38 |
| MichaelTunnell | valorie: what is that in reference to? | 18:52 |
| valorie | with you doing a video, MichaelTunnell | 19:00 |
| valorie | <3 | 19:00 |
| MichaelTunnell | well my question is related to Kubuntu not posting it on the Kubuntu channel until after the blogs and such use mine so that I can benefit from the press. Kubuntu would get the same benefit it would already get from the video sharing but I would get YouTube views and such. | 19:01 |
| valorie | understood | 19:07 |
| valorie | you get more views than we do | 19:08 |
| valorie | therefore, we'll get more good promo directly from you than in our own chan | 19:08 |
| MichaelTunnell | :D | 19:10 |
| MichaelTunnell | I would also unleash my normal marketing techniques that I wouldn't typically do for content outside of my channel so likely much more :) | 19:11 |
| valorie | <3 | 19:13 |
| valorie | I'm feeling really good about this release | 19:13 |
| valorie | a nice presentation of Plasma and the rest of KDE software I hope | 19:14 |
| MichaelTunnell | I am as well. I have been using Neon since first neon release because Kubuntu 16.04 was well, let's not talk about it . . . with that said, I am switching back to Kubuntu with 18.04 release. :) | 19:14 |
| valorie | neon is great too, but yes, kubuntu has my heart | 19:18 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> ditto | 19:20 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu | 19:20 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> started on that :) | 19:20 |
| valorie | excellent | 19:21 |
| acheronuk | MichaelTunnell: that also goes into some of the stuff you requested about new features. though it needs more done | 19:22 |
| valorie | can I add Falkon in there, acheronuk? | 19:22 |
| valorie | if I can login to the friggin' wiki | 19:23 |
| acheronuk | add in how? I mention it | 19:23 |
| valorie | oh, missed it | 19:24 |
| valorie | ah, under new applicaations, of course | 19:24 |
| acheronuk | new, but not new. fair enough to go there though | 19:25 |
| valorie | I guess we can use this for the RC testing | 19:25 |
| valorie | with a bit of editing | 19:25 |
| valorie | there is still some "beta" in there | 19:25 |
| valorie | and the social links have no images | 19:26 |
| acheronuk | probably. I only made a quick start this morning. it needs much tweaking I'm sure | 19:27 |
| valorie | looks great already, so good start! | 19:27 |
| valorie | mparillo: ^^^ | 19:27 |
| acheronuk | should probably mention some of the other default settings changes | 19:29 |
| acheronuk | e.g. single click, and where to find the setting should people want to change back | 19:30 |
| valorie | ok, trying to login to fix the little niggles and I'll add something about single click now being default | 19:32 |
| valorie | uh | 19:32 |
| valorie | we're we going with double-click as default? | 19:32 |
| ricktimmis[m] | Hello friends | 19:33 |
| acheronuk | have ubuntu formally asked us how many years we are prepare to support for the LTS? | 19:33 |
| acheronuk | hi ricktimmis[m] :) | 19:33 |
| acheronuk | valorie: duh. I meant double click | 19:34 |
| ricktimmis[m] | Will we ship Falkon installed as part of the iso image ? | 19:35 |
| valorie | I hope so! | 19:35 |
| ricktimmis[m] | Me too | 19:35 |
| valorie | I assume not the miniman packageset | 19:35 |
| valorie | minimal | 19:35 |
| valorie | which by the way went flawlessly for me in one test | 19:36 |
| ricktimmis[m] | I really like it, been using it daily on 17.10 from clivejo ppa | 19:36 |
| ricktimmis[m] | Have had no issues | 19:36 |
| valorie | and is still running for me on my travel lappy | 19:36 |
| acheronuk | It is not currently. I am concerned somewhat about security updates for webengine on that | 19:36 |
| valorie | oh, Falkon is my goto | 19:36 |
| valorie | I don't use anything else now | 19:36 |
| valorie | for 6 months or so | 19:37 |
| acheronuk | So am a bit wary of making it on our iso/meta | 19:37 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> @tsimonq2 ^^ | 19:37 |
| valorie | the new one isn't built yet.... and tsimonq2 is not feeling well | 19:37 |
| valorie | how long are we planning to support this LTS? | 19:38 |
| acheronuk | remember we will have many point releases of 18.04, and SRUs to do. so maybe Falkon will get updates and can go on | 19:38 |
| valorie | if we discussed this I don't remember | 19:38 |
| valorie | acheronuk: I'm not gonna fight you about it! | 19:39 |
| acheronuk | I just asked that. ubuntu usually email flavours to ask, but I see no email | 19:39 |
| valorie | you are the guy on the line so it is your call | 19:39 |
| valorie | does 3 years seem fair? | 19:39 |
| acheronuk | I would like to see falkon get a few bugfix updates 1st | 19:39 |
| acheronuk | 3 years seems fair | 19:39 |
| valorie | we're not in the last week yet so sh&% isn't hitting the fan YET | 19:40 |
| ricktimmis[m] | I think Falkon makes our products really special, and of course I am excited at the possibility. | 19:40 |
| valorie | but so far it seems very stable to me | 19:40 |
| ricktimmis[m] | However, I support and accept advice of deve | 19:40 |
| valorie | ricktimmis[m]: yup | 19:40 |
| acheronuk | they have made a great start with it under the kde mantle | 19:40 |
| valorie | oh, do we have a new kde-connect yet? | 19:41 |
| acheronuk | we do | 19:41 |
| valorie | I lost track | 19:41 |
| valorie | cool | 19:41 |
| acheronuk | and new krita 4.0.1 | 19:41 |
| acheronuk | and new kstars 2.9.4 with libindi support | 19:41 |
| ricktimmis[m] | New Krista s brilliant I love it | 19:41 |
| valorie | um | 19:42 |
| acheronuk | I'm annoyed about digikam being old, but we can't build newer | 19:42 |
| valorie | it is OK for us to call this LTS before the .1 release? | 19:42 |
| valorie | digikam gets so much work! | 19:42 |
| valorie | they just need to Make Releases | 19:42 |
| acheronuk | they have been! requiring newer exiv2 than we have in Bionic :( | 19:44 |
| acheronuk | eviv2 is in main | 19:44 |
| valorie | ah | 19:45 |
| valorie | boo | 19:45 |
| acheronuk | I filed a bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/exiv2/+bug/1715931 | 19:45 |
| valorie | ubuntu refuses to upgrade? | 19:45 |
| acheronuk | but no-one cared until it was too late | 19:46 |
| IrcsomeBot | <tsimonq2> Wait wait wait before making assertions. :P | 19:46 |
| valorie | I saw that the newer appstream will be included | 19:46 |
| IrcsomeBot | <tsimonq2> I can finish it once I'm feeling better. | 19:49 |
| mparillo | Yes, I can add back the images for social media. Thanks for noticing well ahead of time. | 19:53 |
| valorie | I'm editing now so I think it's locked atm | 19:54 |
| valorie | gosh, I'm going to have to ask nggraham for a list of the changes we've made to default settings | 19:58 |
| valorie | or is that the only one? | 19:59 |
| valorie | ok, done editing for now | 20:02 |
| valorie | I was sure we changed more than one default | 20:02 |
| valorie | mparillo: | 20:03 |
| valorie | ^^^ | 20:03 |
| valorie | pfff, more coffee needed | 20:03 |
| acheronuk | not all changes are likely worthy of a mention | 20:09 |
| valorie | of course | 20:09 |
| acheronuk | - hybrid look and feel | 20:09 |
| acheronuk | - double click | 20:09 |
| valorie | I'll start working on an announcement for the website | 20:09 |
| acheronuk | - sddm login and locker background | 20:10 |
| acheronuk | - wallpapers | 20:10 |
| valorie | oh right! | 20:10 |
| * valorie sips more coffee | 20:10 | |
| acheronuk | those are the most immediately visible | 20:11 |
| acheronuk | - baloo indexing- might be worth mentioning that, and how to turn full content indexing back on | 20:13 |
| mparillo | As far as full-text indexing, I think showing how to turn it on (to the old / upstream) default is important, but more important is why to turn it on. I see 10 articles about turning it off for every one about turning it on. | 20:48 |
| valorie | I don't know enough about this | 21:02 |
| valorie | I don't even know if mine is turned on or off | 21:02 |
| valorie | although search in dolphin isn't working, so perhaps it is off | 21:03 |
| valorie | which: boo | 21:03 |
| valorie | I've not had trouble with baloo for *years* | 21:03 |
| IrcsomeBot | * tsimonq2 naps | 21:04 |
| IrcsomeBot | <tsimonq2> Had some hot tea and some cold medicine. Should be somewhat better later. | 21:04 |
| valorie | {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} | 21:06 |
| IrcsomeBot | <tsimonq2> Thanks. <3 | 21:08 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> who poked Adam? https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2018-April/004407.html | 21:28 |
| IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> I bet on @tsimonq2 | 21:28 |
| acheronuk | so ack on 3 years from me | 21:30 |
| IrcsomeBot | <tsimonq2> @acheronuk, Long standing TB item that I did in fact poke about. | 21:32 |
| IrcsomeBot | * tsimonq2 goes back to sleep | 21:32 |
| valorie | ok, have written drafts for release candidate testing and release | 23:29 |
| valorie | please fix when you have a chance. | 23:30 |
| MichaelTunnell | I dont think KDE Falkon has had enough time for the transition to be included and supported in an LTS by default | 23:49 |
| MichaelTunnell | I suppose having both KDE Falkon and Firefox would be fine but might be excessive? | 23:51 |
| MichaelTunnell | has Kubuntu considered doing something like Ubuntu MATE's Welcome where you could give extra install options for KDE Falkon for example | 23:52 |
