[09:36] <enyc> hrrm... i hadn't come acress ubuntu-budgie before 18.04
[09:36] <enyc> this may be completely wrong, interested in views...
[09:37] <enyc> it *looks* outwardly like it tries to keep the  unity//OSX "big icon style" task-switcher,  but  presumably//hopefully has lower resource usage (?)   ....?
[10:02] <fossfreedom_> enyc: that is the plank dock.  The majority of UB users wanted that sort of layout.  But its very easy to change to any layout to suit your workflow
[10:45] <enyc> fossfreedom_: ooooooo okies
[10:46] <enyc> fossfreedom_: whats' the resource-usage / graphics-requirments like?   how does this compare to MATE, or  say,  xfce?
[10:47] <fossfreedom_> budgie is classed as middle-weight - lower than gnome, higher than mate and xfce.  Budgie is not intended for cheap low powered, low resource desktops/laptops
[17:14] <tuxlion> good evening
[17:36] <tuxlion> hi drohm
[17:52] <tuxlion> good evening lapaga
[17:58] <drohm> so does the ubuntu budgie installer use the same opt-in default for the Hardware/Software survey?
[19:12] <fossfree-> drohm, no survey options for us - that is just for the Ubuntu welcome screen as far as I understand.
[19:12] <drohm> ah, so we're in essense opted out then, correct?
[19:13] <drohm> I haven't had the time to install and test the beta, apologies
[19:13] <fossfreedom> yes
[19:17] <tuxlion> good evening fossfreedom - wanted to congratulate you and your team for the good work you've done with the release
[19:17] <fossfreedom> tuxlion, cheers! always nice to get feedback.
[19:18] <tuxlion> fossfreedom, I've had different flavours of ubuntu installed and did participate in the community - so I know how much work comes into this
[19:23] <tuxlion> fossfreedom, one question if you don't mind: on the webpage it reads that you're looking for help... but I'm not a dev person nor am I a coder or a graphics person ^^
[19:26] <fossfreedom> bug reports, triaging issues, blogger, community liaison, Quality Assurance
[19:27] <tuxlion> fossfreedom, I'm more of an admin person ;)
[19:28] <fossfreedom> what sort of administration ?
[19:33] <tuxlion> fossfreedom, project management for example
[19:33] <fossfreedom> my role!
[19:33] <tuxlion> fossfreedom, no problem ;) I'm not going to get you off your role ;)
[19:34] <fossfreedom> hehe
[19:36] <tuxlion> but I'm definetly going to have you and your team on my radar ;)
[19:36] <fossfreedom> :)
[19:37] <tuxlion> fossfreedom, all my skillset is already set ^^ so I'll be in the background
[19:38] <tuxlion> fossfreedom, mind me sending you a link of my former ubuntu wiki entry?
[19:38] <fossfreedom> fire away
