 This is a logged channel
 On IRC
 So Internet can find it
 Doh!!
 Thanks @tsimonq2 You saved me posting the next picture Phew!!
 Anyway, its coming along nicely 😃
 Reason number 9001 for not having this channel logged...
 he he Doh!!
 Well, it is important that the council is transparent, KC members ( like me ) just need to keep that in mind 😉
 Right
 I'm all for transparency
 I'm pretty sure it's not logged.
 Yes it is
 irclogs.ubuntu.com
 https://irclogs.ubuntu.com/latest/%23kubuntu-council.html

 How about that
[21:28] <valorie> beautiful
[21:28] <valorie> is that yours? or their photos
 That's one of the first machines, they're being prepared for reviewers.
 Not mine, one of theirs
[21:29] <valorie> cool
[21:29] <valorie> thanks for making this happen so quickly
 It's been alot of fun working with the team, and the really good news.
 It looks like it'll launch in North America and Europe
[21:33] <valorie> @sick_rimmit have you spoken about this privately with Paul Brown of KDE promo?
[21:34] <valorie> it would be good to give him a heads up IMO
[21:34] <valorie> and not spring it as a surprise
 No, can you email he and I to introduce me /
 ?
[21:34] <valorie> sure
 Then I'll brief him, thanks Valorie
[21:40] <valorie> done
 @Sick_Rimmit it will be cool to launch it with Kubuntu 20.04 LTS.
 That will be upgrade path, as we hope to be in the market before 20.04 release 😊
 I meant to ship the laptop with 20.04.
 Seems quite bizarre to even think of shipping 19.10 to be honest.
 Nope it's shipping 18.04 with backports enabled, and some stuff pulled in, with an LTS upgrade path
 Ummm what?
 If anything there should be an option for 18.04 and 20.04.
[23:01] <valorie> I see the value in both paths
[23:01] <valorie> I like the every-6-month route personally but see why a company would ship with LTS
