[22:02] <kereltis> hi guys
[22:03] <Bashing-om> kereltis: Hello. what brings you into our neck of the woods ?
[22:04] <kereltis> A friend directed me here, wondering if you need a hand with anything?
[22:06] <Bashing-om> kereltis: We sure do .. caught up for the time being with the newsletter . Is a bit of a hassle to get ya access to editing . You in for it ?
[22:07] <kereltis> Sure
[22:08] <kereltis> It's good to see it back
[22:08] <Bashing-om> kereltis: Great, here is how it works: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Join . Have a read and we discuss .
[22:13] <kereltis> Looks good, straight forward
[22:15] <kereltis> So editors check spelling, grammer and make sure links work corectly and make sure there is no questionable content in them?
[22:17] <Bashing-om> kereltis: Yepper .. and do a bit of polishing on what the summary writers do . My writting skills reek - as hard as I try , I have gotten used to the editor telling me to redo it !
[22:18] <kereltis> Cool, sounds good
[22:18] <Bashing-om> kereltis: Our product for this week: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18ZbtFHQq6uMj7iuRLd11VH8V5Uc_FA0IfgiRUcbMbQk . That has been turned into : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue531#preview . The wiki is what we will publish Monday .
[22:28] <kereltis> Plenty of news this week. So is there just three of you working on it?
[22:30] <Bashing-om> kereltis: 4 of us presently working under the watchful eyes of the UWN forebears . and no! was not much to report this week :(
[22:30] <kereltis> I know Chris from G+, good guy, loves trains
[22:31] <Bashing-om> kereltis: Yup, thanks to Chris' guidance to get me started .
[22:33] <Bashing-om> kereltis: The load can get heavy and the pressure to complete on-time can be great . What is your area of expertise that you can contribute to the effort ?
[22:36] <kereltis> I can edit a bit, find news (I have an Ubuntu News flipboard that I run), promotions/marketing
[22:37] <Bashing-om> kereltis: Outstanding - As i say we can use all the help we can get .. It all starts with what we can scour up to write up .
[22:38] <kereltis> I can start with that so
[22:40] <Bashing-om> Next then is to get you editing tights . we need for krytarik or pleia2 to take notce here and move this along .

[22:45] <wxl> considering the ever-increasing intelligence of spammers, yes
