15:34:39 <jcastro> more info on disqus?
15:34:46 <jcastro> like, will we be able to use it on all properties?
15:35:27 <mhall119> are you talking to any of the forums folks about the API?  Also, once there is an API, we can use it for Unity lenses/scopes
15:35:32 <jono> jcastro, I suspect so
15:35:38 <jono> it will be deployed to d.u.c this week
15:35:42 * jcastro nods
15:35:43 <jono> they did a security assessment
15:35:53 <jcastro> oh ok, excellent
15:35:55 <jono> mhall119, IS are reviewing if they can do the work
15:36:00 <mhall119> ok
15:36:02 <jono> mhall119, I have asked for a simple web service
15:36:16 <jono> but they are naturally super-paranoid about not giving out personal info
15:36:22 <jono> the data we have requested is not personal though
15:36:25 <mhall119> understandable
15:36:27 <jono> and already exposed mostly on the forums
15:36:42 <mhall119> will it allow searching the forum posts?
15:36:47 <dpm> jcastro, https://portal.admin.canonical.com/50775
15:36:57 <jono> mhall119, it will show number of posts for a user
15:37:03 <jono> but now allow searching for specific posts
15:37:08 <jono> not
15:37:13 <mhall119> would that be possible?
15:37:22 <jono> don't know
15:37:26 <mhall119> there was a desire to add a forums scope into the Help lens
15:37:27 <jono> you will have to talk to IS
15:37:29 <jcastro> ;_; so close
15:37:31 <mhall119> ok
15:37:36 <jono> mhall119, I don't see why it would not be possible
15:38:13 <jono> any other topics for discussion?
15:39:13 <jono> ok
15:39:16 <jono> lets wrap it!
15:39:19 <jono> thanks, folks!
15:39:19 <jcastro> WRAP!
