guivercin this issue has picked up "UWN Issue 927 January 11-17 2026."  not usual I think00:48
Bashing-omguiverc: not unual at all ;; also lost here: Ubuntu 25.04 (Plucky Puffin): "Release team (on mailing list, Utkarsh Gupta on Ubuntu Discourse)" A dangling thought ?00:51
guivercplucky eol:  s/wherein 25.04/wherein Ubuntu 25.04/ I suggest00:52
guivercthere are two annoucements from the Ubuntu Release Team; Ural did the ML and Utkarsh posted the later one on Ubuntu Discourse.00:52
guivercfor most it's the same person who does both so only one name.. I could have ignored the Ubuntu Discouse being posted by a different person, but felt if readers clicked that link they may get confused given differnt poster/name00:53
guivercPersonally I'd like to move the Edubuntu & Studio EOL notices above the 9to5/Marius one; even if a lower level (same indent currently) - you agree?00:55
guivercwe list edubuntu 25.04 EOL twice anyway; one has to go00:56
* guiverc goes :( when I see optimize-swap one; -2 is its ranking anyway and 3/5 towards closure.. but askubu is way down on usage recent months as more goes to UD thus the inclusion I guess...00:58
guivercserver gazette:  i suggest dropping comma in "who helped her, with this post."01:01
guivercthe adjusted last sentences has me a tad confused.. "Sally makes the conclusion for using AI as it is all in the setup. One pays for the ease of use on the back end."  okay to you?  or "Sally concludes that using AI is all in the setup, with payments often appearing in the back end.  (also I'd be tempted to put "mostly in the setup" (not all in the setup) too but I'd have to re-read the article to be sure01:04
Bashing-omediting :)01:12
* guiverc paused reading actually.. 01:14
guivercresolute rebuild:  "and warns us that most aren’t new features just package rebuilds." read okay; I'm pausing after 'new features, just package rebuilds" as if it needs comma  (or an 'and')  already an and in that sentence so don't want another.. okay or add comma?01:16
guivercgnome 50...  "(X11 backend is dropped)"   we use back-end earlier & 'backend' there?? yuk; add hypen? or remove from other back-end... we could also just drop "(X11 backend is dropped)" too as I think its redundant...01:18
guivercgnome 49.3:  of no importance, but should "GNOME 49.3 Desktop release" have a lower case "desktop"??01:20
Bashing-oma pause is good - adding the comma.01:25
Bashing-omNext!01:33
guivercsorry phone call & paused reading..01:33
Bashing-omjust marking where I am at editing... // be aware arthritus tearing me up again - serious headack so my focus is lacking.01:34
guivercgnome 49.3  suggest dropping 'far' from "he release of GNOME 48.8 and its far more ‘limited’ changes"01:35
guiverche is the.. i just copy/pasted & missed the 't'01:36
guivercnvidia wayland.. maybe s/acknowledge improvements/acknowledging improvements01:38
guivercbut do drop "details" from "details are provided."  (just after ack improvements)01:39
guivercmy suggestion anyway ^  you modified what I originally had, but the word "details' sticks on as wrong to me as I read it now ...01:40
guivercnvidia 590; maybe s/ build into the Ubuntu multiverse/ build for the Ubuntu multiverse/ ??  ie. s/into/for/??  or s/into/in/  .. reading awkward to me (today)01:41
Bashing-om"With a quote"  if we drop details then the sentence no longer makes sense.01:43
guivercwhich one.. mentally have moved one & can't recall what I said.. 01:45
Bashing-om^ Ubuntu 26.04 Aims To Deliver: details can not drop details less we rewrite the sentence.01:48
guiverc"A quote from (Daniel van Vugt), a Mutter merge request and subsequent comments (acknowledging improvements) are provided" maybe?01:53
guivercdo what you think is best  (in noble updates currently)01:55
Bashing-om53 dupes found - so far.02:00
guivercat end... I will amend https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Archive so it points to https://discourse.ubuntu.com/c/uwn/uwn-issues/419 (not current going to uwn-issues)02:00

guiverc`grep ^# discourse.post` looks fine (927; don't always mention running that)22:02

guivercuwn 927 posted to fb22:58
guivercmy check of https://ubuntu.com/community/uwn/ubuntu-weekly-newsletter-issue-927 discovered the UWN-work-in-progress was still visible...  thus removed (finally)23:06
* guiverc hadn't noticed that earlier..23:07
Bashing-omguiverc: I do try and check that in my processes "WIP" is also removed - it's that tree for all the forest :(23:13
guivercI know & realize that... we're human & thus make mistakes... procedures are there to help us, but we'll stick miss stuff on occasion, thus the checks/rechecks etc..  it was caught (eventually!)23:16
Bashing-om:D23:18
