[01:31]  * guiverc unhappy (again) with ubuntu studio support one; I fear confusing.. so locally playing...
[01:31] <guiverc> Bashing-om, maybe s/Though this new area is a special Ubuntu Studio section of the Ubuntu Discourse it is not for support and help (general OS help/support already exists), rather for open discussions/A new area for Ubuntu Studio discussions now exists on Ubuntu Discourse, not for support and help, but for open discussions/   
[01:32] <Bashing-om> guiverc: Ack - Happy to go with your re-write.
[01:32] <guiverc> why: i still read the 'not for support' as linking to the move from askubuntu to discourse for readers..  then they're told it's not for support?? they'll scream...
[01:33]  * guiverc wonder if what I wrote would be better with an added 'Also' ... (again so as to not confuse/muddle readers..)
[01:34]  * guiverc moving on with read thru...
[01:35]  * guiverc likes how the Steve Langasek bit appears; thanks Bashing-om 
[01:40]  * guiverc surprised by python2 update... 
[01:47] <guiverc> we have a noble item that looks unusual ; https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/noble-changes/2025-January/044110.html   maybe result of package name thought (netplan.io??)
[01:48] <Eickmeyer> guiverc: That's the literal name of the package. 
[01:48] <Eickmeyer> !info netplan.io noble
[01:48] <ubottu> netplan.io (1.1.1-1~ubuntu24.04.1, noble): Declarative network configuration for various backends at runtime. In component main, is important. Built by netplan.io. Size 67 kB / 338 kB. (Only available for linux-any.)
[01:49] <guiverc> yeah I suspected... still looks unusual in list (on discourse; thus my comment... I wish I knew a way of preventing the url treatment.. though if it was treated differently, it may look even worse on ML when sent)
[01:50] <Eickmeyer> I'll see what I can do.
[01:50] <Eickmeyer> ope.. 503 for now
[01:51] <guiverc> its not that important... many likely won't notice (& esp. care) ... I'm mostly noting what I see (i saw it on oracular too; if on jammy I didn't notice that)
[01:53] <guiverc> yeah... trying to scan back & read editors of doc to check contributors list; and no response here too...
[01:54] <Eickmeyer> FYI, you can prevent URLs from auto-linking by encapsulating them with <span></span>.
[01:54] <guiverc> thanks Eickmeyer !  
[01:55] <Eickmeyer> yw. Now if only the site will come back up. 😆
[01:56] <guiverc> Bashing-om, do you notice it?  it's only a different color (clickable link on screen, if someone clicks link they go to relevant site so i'm not worried by that)... worth adding <span>?? as that is more work; and may also appear on ML & other posts where it's a negative.. 
[01:58] <Bashing-om> guiverc: Yeah noticed - no idea of the cause and did not put effort into knowing the why --- also of note is our UWN scripts are unhappy with /usr/lib/python3.12/urllib/request.py :(
[02:00] <guiverc> tried to run it locally; 500 read timeout....   so I didn't get that far..
[02:00] <guiverc> i did finish read thru (except for contributors anyway; can't scan back to see if someone else edited we've not included.. at least not currently)
[02:33] <guiverc> contributors all listed too.
[02:36] <Bashing-om> guiverc: Uh Huh - Discourse back in operation -- but S L O W for me - wait and see if it falls over. 
[02:37] <guiverc> yeah it took me M A N Y goes before I got the contribs checked...
[02:43]  * Eickmeyer uses <span></span>! It is ineffective!

[03:09] <guiverc> :(
[03:22] <Bashing-om> guiverc: Edits to "Support and Help Updates" completed. See now if aceptable :D
[03:24] <guiverc> looks good, thanks Bashing-om , issue looks great
[03:27] <Bashing-om> guiverc: Outstanding :P We go then with what we have :D
[12:48] <guiverc> Debian News are working on a public announcement relating to death of Steve Langasek, if it releases in time, we could include (easily) it as a list item (874) with what we have already in the press section
=== arraybolt3_ is now known as arraybolt3
[21:04] <Bashing-om> UWN: Opening 874 - Prep to publish. Pending is https://www.debian.org/News/ article.
[21:22] <Bashing-om> UWN: A bit past time - pulling the trigger - shame to miss Denian's Steve Langasek farewell. 
[21:23] <Bashing-om> *Debian's*
[21:24] <guiverc> yeah, but I suspect it maybe a few days before it appears (chance for people to write tributes etc for it)
[21:25] <Bashing-om> We see what plays out.
[21:31] <Bashing-om> UWN: M/L is away - Making up a Mastodon blog next,
[21:42] <guiverc> https://fridge.ubuntu.com/2025/01/13/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter-issue-874/
[22:00] <Bashing-om> Mastodon done up - next is to set up 875.
[22:02] <guiverc> tweeted 874, (mewe), telegram
[22:23] <Bashing-om> UWN: 875 on the line.
