[00:00] <guiverc> so drop it?
[00:00] <krytarik> Eh, it ought to be -announce though.
[00:00] <guiverc> sorry i'm confused - still make that link to the mail?
[00:01] <krytarik> I'd say same as here: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/2017/08/05/ubuntu-16-04-3-lts-released/
[00:03] <guiverc> okay - i finally see (its hidden...)..
[00:05] <guiverc> finally i think i got it..  (irc.freenode.?? made a link?)
[00:06] <krytarik> And then I think we could social mediaize it too - but link to the mail there, of course.
[00:07] <guiverc> social media - ie. links to adam conrad? (people?) or ubuntu?
[00:08] <krytarik> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2018-April/000231.html - no, just to here, which is also what the still remaining point is about - want me to fix the footer quickly?
[00:09] <guiverc> on behalf of adam - that i originally put there, then removed?
[00:12] <krytarik> No, you are still referring to Release rather than Announce - and also I'd continue spelling it "ubuntu-announce", and there is at least one empty line in excess there.
[00:13] <guiverc> i'm using https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2018-April/004453.html  (release link)
[00:15] <krytarik> Yeah, that's wrong - because 1.) it's an official announcement, and 2.) it also refers to the other in it.
[00:16] <guiverc> okay now?
[00:17] <krytarik> Also just noticed you changed "The Ubuntu team is pleased to announce" to refer to Adam specifically - doesn't seem to be the common pattern here either.
[00:17] <guiverc>   (*fixing /n on more info)
[00:19] <guiverc> yeah i copied a prior one (that I did - i should go further back, my bad; if I made an error previously I repeat it..)
[00:19] <krytarik> :D
[00:20] <guiverc> @ top "The Ubuntu Team is .."
[00:20] <krytarik> Yep, got that.  Also, I'd still like the link to be "ubuntu-announce mailing list" as usual.
[00:21] <guiverc> all lower case? added -
[00:23] <krytarik> And not sure why you readded the foot note of Adam, since it says so in our too.
[00:23] <guiverc> that was a misunderstanding - an issue at the bottom I was confused about - forgot i re-added that..
[00:24] <krytarik> "Ubuntu team" - lowercase plz. :D
[00:24] <guiverc> where?
[00:25] <krytarik> At the top.
[00:25] <guiverc> awww - "team"
[00:25] <krytarik> Sorry if I seem picky or something, but.. >_>
[00:25] <guiverc> my brain just skipped over it reading the two equal... i'm no compiler :)
[00:31] <guiverc> http://fridge.ubuntu.com/?p=8332 - published with much thanks krytarik, your time appreciated !
[00:31] <pleia2> looks good :)
[00:32] <guiverc> :) thanks pleia2 , also handy being LTS as its a release i'll find easy to look back for
[00:32] <pleia2> \o/
[00:37] <krytarik> guiverc: Now, wanna social mediaize it still?
[00:39] <krytarik> It's kind of unfortunate that we only got the "Weekly Newsletter" there though, and no generic presence.
[00:40] <pleia2> where?
[00:41] <krytarik> All the social networks.
[00:41] <pleia2> tbh, Canonical is the one that actuall owns the marketing presence for Ubuntu, we just do the newsletter
[00:41] <pleia2> so it's appropriate that we just have newsletter-focused stuff
[00:42] <krytarik> Hmmm..
[00:43] <pleia2> we do keep fridge going, but even that's been questionable over the years as the amount posted to it has lessened to only be newsletter and release announcements (which are both "officially" published elseewhere)
[00:44] <pleia2> and as far as social media goes, we only ever posted the newsletter to that stuff, doing posts about testing and releases is something you guys just invented :)
[00:45] <pleia2> I'm still not sure about it, but I don't want to be the leader anymore, so it's yours!
[00:45] <krytarik> Yes, I think we should at least every once in while be posting the things there that we also do on the site.
[00:46] <pleia2> yeah, that's fair
[00:47] <krytarik> However, this one we also just retweet! :P
[00:48] <krytarik> Can, that is.
[00:48]  * pleia2 nods
[00:48] <pleia2> but @ubuntu, not just @lubuntu :P
[00:48] <pleia2> hehe
[00:55] <guiverc> krytarik, wasn't sure what you meant by solicizing - adding (hidden) links to each flavor (xubuntu, kubu... to their websites?)
[00:56] <krytarik> pleia2: Yes.. :D
[00:56] <guiverc> (i disappeared to go feed birds... i do that a couple of times a day :) )
[00:57] <krytarik> guiverc: If you have got access to the UWN's Facebook, would be nice to go find the official Ubuntu one and just reshare their release post - I just did that for Twitter and Google+
[00:59] <guiverc> nah i never went wiki..  no i don't have access  (I just posted to my own g+ "ubuntu links" [one place where I collected uwn stuff])
[00:59] <guiverc> never went past wiki/editing (on uwn)
[00:59] <krytarik> Ah, ok.
[01:01] <pleia2> krytarik: are you able to give access to others? lmk if you need help
[01:02] <krytarik> Well, I already gave Wild_Man access to Twitter and Facebook earlier, but on Google+ I can't - and yes, could do the same with guiverc, of course.
[01:04] <guiverc> (to be honest I'd rather not have fb)
[01:05] <krytarik> Tbh I just have to go kill cookies again to even log in there. :P
[02:17] <krytarik> And I've just found a bug in Twitter.. :D  In the account settings, for time zone, UTC is offered in the list, but when you choose it, it flips to the first entry in the list, GMT-11 :P
[02:18] <krytarik> I've now tried with GMT+1 London and that worked.
[02:19] <krytarik> And it fits sufficiently because of the Ubuntu HQ!
[17:57] <krytarik> pleia2: Any objections to changing @Ubuntu_News on Twitter to the usual @UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter to make it follow 1.) the rest of the account's appearance, and 2.) the other two social media presences?  I believe the link in the UWN itself that I just added is quite literally the only one out there.
[18:09] <pleia2> do they allow handles that long now?
[18:10] <pleia2> we've always been restricted by character length on twitter
[18:11] <krytarik> Oh, I wouldn't know! :D
[18:12] <pleia2> I don't mind either way, but it has the one it has because length and othet similar ones being taken already
[18:13] <krytarik> Ugh, it would seem that's still the case - 15 chars max vs 22
[18:14]  * pleia2 nods
[18:14] <krytarik> "For the sake of ease"!
[18:19] <krytarik> "Ubuntu Fridge" is a nice brand name too though!
[18:34] <Bashing-om> Bullet the flavor release announcements following the ubuntu 18.04 annoumcement(s) ?
[18:36] <krytarik> That'd be a bit much imo - but I haven't figured a proper way yet to refer to the flavors at the end of the already too long summary either - feel free to work on that.
[18:38] <Bashing-om> krytarik: K; I feel about the same . will be a long list and a bit undecided on a best practice here .
[18:41] <Bashing-om> See what I can find for a more creditable source: https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubuntu/comments/8fcwea/well_that_is_just_cruel/ .
[19:11] <krytarik> Well, that's just as per usual for every release and LTS respectively.
[19:11] <krytarik> People just don't get it.
