|---|---|---|
| guiverc | I just noted https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/about-the-ubuntu-weekly-news-category/35624 | 02:08 |
| guiverc | I'll endeavour to start exploring/creating a uwn786 later there (today, tomorrow etc with intention of working out what changes we need for skeleton etc) | 02:10 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: Looking ^ :) | 02:10 |
| guiverc | Bashing-om, https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter-issue-786-wiki-page-still-official/35635 with NO CHANGES (wiki page with front bit) | 02:22 |
| guiverc | can you edit it bashing-om? (I suspect you won't be able, but I'd like you confirm, i'll then convert to wiki where I expect you will be able to) | 02:23 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: Lemme log in and see what I can do :D | 02:26 |
| * guiverc smiles, not logging in will ensure I get the result I'm expecting :) | 02:26 | |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: Logged in - do not see an "edit" button - so guess I remain froze out :( | 02:30 |
| guiverc | can you please try again Bashing-om (you may need to refresh page though if it doesn't work , so your browser recognizes the wiki page now) | 02:31 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: Yeah - lemme restart the page. | 02:32 |
| * guiverc trying to ensure we have permissions so we're not limited to the original poster correcting any issues etc.. | 02:33 | |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: Yepper --- now I have the edit button :) | 02:35 |
| guiverc | okay & thanks Bashing-om ! I'll not start the massaging of the file (local in text editor, then re-paste over that on that page) until later.. but we could both do it anyway.. Current purpose being to work out what is required to amend formatting to match discourse & base-skeleton doc. | 02:37 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: Be a learning curve for me ... but I expect not a step for a stepper :D | 02:38 |
| guiverc | when it looks okay, I can contrast the diff of original (plus minor text notes I'll keep) & we can maybe confirm via edits to another issue maybe.. but that's later. | 02:38 |
| guiverc | I'm posting to discourse somewhat regularly thanks to lubuntu mainly... but I mostly just copy/paste from prior pages rather than remember/learn the actual formatting... | 02:39 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: I expect we will get help when we hit a rough spot :) | 02:40 |
| guiverc | for sure, though I'm hoping we don't hit rough spots (we're mostly text; real issues are largely with graphic (size) & videos... which are in the future for UWN maybe | 02:41 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: I am pleased that we are getting onto our own platform -- and away from Google :P | 02:42 |
| guiverc | :) though I hadn't considered using it except instead of wiki for publish (not for collection, though that would be psosible too) | 02:44 |
| Bashing-om | Seems once we are confortable with using Discourse - we can migrate off of Google Docs completely. | 02:55 |
| Bashing-om | comfortable* | 02:55 |
| guiverc | understood, I'd not hurry that.. i prefer using notes (codeimd) for lubuntu stuff, then copy/paste to disourse.. (but that maybe just the EYE/edit quick toggle that prevents a certain dog-muzzle from making changes on another keyboard without me noticing..) but whatever works (easily) will be good. | 03:00 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: I *DO* my drafts local on a text editor :) | 03:02 |
| guiverc | yep... MUCH more responsive... | 03:02 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: All in my head - but the pressure to produce is not as intense from a text editor :P | 03:05 |
| guiverc | I used to do everything local.. first used gdoc b/c UWN was using it (april 2015 from memory) but I've gotten used to it... saves me having to decide which text editor i open (gedit, mousepad, featherpad...) | 03:09 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: My driver: xfce >> mousepad :P | 03:32 |
| * guiverc used mousepad for fridge.post, modified microblog.txt (some extra added from fridge prior to post to fb/reddit/mewe/telegram..) ... my featherpad has other stuff in it | 03:34 | |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: I might have 10-12 or so tabs open in mousepad at any given time. | 03:36 |
| guiverc | wow :) more than I'd ever use (i start using different apps I think in hope it'll keep me less confused maybe) | 03:37 |
| guiverc | Bashing-om, just occurred to me (we have a heart now on discourse post)... a wiki there may attract more contributors way more than hidden away on gdoc ! | 03:44 |
| Bashing-om | guiverc: That is a fact ! more interaction will be most welcome. | 03:45 |

| krytarik | guiverc: Uhm, did the Lubuntu article inadvertently get dropped off the UWN post on the Fridge? :o | 08:16 |
| guiverc | i saw your ^ comment earlier this morning & maybe misunderstood it... 20.04 EOL was last week's news thus why I did it (completely misunderstanding what you meant no doubt!) | 08:18 |
| guiverc | krytarik, do you want me to return it? (I didn't see it as critical..) | 08:20 |
| krytarik | Yeah, I merely referred to it's post title unnecessarily including "Lubuntu Blog" Yeah, please put it back in, also to be in line with the wiki page. | 08:22 |
| guiverc | not a problem... will do. | 08:22 |
| guiverc | done. | 08:26 |
| krytarik | Thanks! | 08:26 |
| guiverc | You're most welcome & sorry too.. | 08:27 |
| krytarik | And wrt the Discourse migration, did you remember the script I added for this to the UWN repo earlier? | 08:30 |
| guiverc | obviously not... i barely remember my name... though now that you've reminded me I do... I'll add that right now (or in 5-10 anyway) | 08:31 |
| * guiverc is disappointed now... looks obvious in my `ls -ltrha` I stared at before deciding which I'd upload... Thank you krytarik | 08:32 | |
| guiverc | krytarik, no change that I can see (diff doesn't reveal any).. | 08:39 |
| * guiverc away from keyboard.. wanting dinner... | 08:41 | |
| Unit193 | guiverc: You're Chris Guiver, btw. | 09:20 |
| guiverc[m] | ? | 09:20 |
| krytarik | guiverc[m]: https://git.launchpad.net/uwn/tree/wiki2discourse/reformat.py?h=discourse - to be clear, I'm referring to this one. | 17:21 |
