[04:01] <valorie> thanks mparillo
[19:42] <valorie> mparillo: did you publish?
[19:42] <valorie> so I can tweet
[20:10] <valorie> btw I have offered the use of our BBB instance for a Ubuntu Flavors meeting which has been set to 21:00 UTC Friday August 21
[20:10] <valorie> mark your calendars!
[20:33] <mparillo> No, does anybody else want to review the news before I do?
[20:36] <valorie> let me take another look quickly
[20:37] <valorie> looks good to me
[20:37] <valorie> publish?
[20:37] <valorie> RikMills: have you updated the download link?
[20:37]  * valorie is unsure how to do that
[20:37] <valorie> @ahoneybun ?
[20:38] <yofel> what needs updating there?
[20:39] <valorie> not sure how important this all is, but it seems like we should do it
[20:39] <valorie> yofel: to the .1
 I can do it
[20:39] <valorie> \o/
[20:39] <valorie> anyone else want to take a look at https://kubuntu.org/wp-admin/post.php?post=4464&action=edit ?
[20:40] <yofel> the links on https://kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/ already point to 20.04.1
[20:40] <valorie> oh cool
[20:41] <valorie> thanks, yesterday it didn't
[20:41] <valorie> also hello yofel!
[20:41] <yofel> o/
[20:41] <valorie> are you coming to Akademy?
[20:41] <valorie> online of course
[20:41]  * valorie is even giving a talk
[20:42] <mparillo> Yes, I started to edit the download pages, and made the edits and found out I could not save as draft nor could I easily revert them, so yes, they were updated yesterday. So please test them also.
[20:43] <yofel> kind of. Over the weekend yes, and my company extended the remote working recommendation till end of the year. So I should be able to listen in partially if I don't have a meeting that conflicts
[20:43] <valorie> cool
[20:43] <valorie> it will be good to see your face again
[20:43] <yofel> mparillo: main and alternate download page looks good to me
[20:43] <valorie> I was just talking with the organizers about being able to do informal stuff
[20:44] <valorie> like we could schedule a bit of social time just to see one another again and maybe drink a beer
[20:44] <valorie> virtually clink the bottles
[20:44] <valorie> :-)
[20:44] <valorie> so publish?
[20:44] <yofel> true ^^
[20:45] <mparillo> Thanks yofel. Normally for a new page, I tell people that I have a version ready to review, but my WordPress-fu was not up to that editing, so I had to publish.
[20:45] <valorie> we can always do it via jitsi etc but it would be cool to have it associated with Akademy
[20:45] <mparillo> valorie: Not yet. I see a Ubuntu there
[20:45] <valorie> woops
[20:46] <valorie> I'll login to twitter and start a tweet and wait for the final link
[20:46] <mparillo> Two actually
[20:46] <mparillo> Fixed. Publishing.
[20:48] <mparillo> Of course, now we will find something really wrong.
[20:48] <valorie> which is OK
[20:48] <valorie> everything is fixable

[20:54] <valorie> already rt'd a few times

[21:44] <mparillo> Facebooked. Hoping not to return until the GG Beta.
[21:55] <valorie> haha
[21:56] <valorie> much of my family is there so I need it at least weekly
[21:56] <valorie> also lots of genealogy groups where thank goodness there is little politcs etc.
[21:56] <valorie> this year has been dreadful in ways and FB is a huge part of the ick
[21:59] <mparillo> In July I started seeing spotted lantern flies everywhere (https://www.agriculture.pa.gov/Plants_Land_Water/PlantIndustry/Entomology/spotted_lanternfly/SpottedLanternflyAlert/Pages/default.aspx), then in August we had a hurricane. The year is not over yet.
[23:02] <valorie> gosh, mparillo
[23:03] <valorie> and we have murder hornets heading down from Canada!
