I've removed about everyone that wasn't active and new member have to go through a two month trail period 20:38:10 I have no need for badge collectors in my team 20:38:19 So.. does amjjawad want to be the one to wikify "his" thread, saving MrChrisDruif some work?? 20:38:28 so i'm saying there's a difference between community property and amjawad's property 20:38:45 That would be very nice if he could do that (he is still part of the docs team) 20:39:45 just build a new one from scratch 20:40:19 just so the meeting is aware, what has been requested is that tutorial threads follow http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1193567 so the tutorial bit is on wiki & the discussion is on forum 20:40:23 #link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1193567 20:40:53 phillw is talking about how the ubuntuforums people? 20:41:03 decided to move all technical docs out of the forum 20:41:13 becasuse the were getting out of date 20:41:25 so now, no tech docs in the forum, everything in the wiki 20:41:37 +1 20:41:44 OK I'm here 20:41:47 Match is OVER :( 20:41:51 lol 20:42:00 MrChrisDruif: kanliot and others 20:42:01 PLEASE 20:42:26 I did NOT decide yet whether to trun LOST to a Wiki page or not because it does NOT make sense to me YET 20:42:38 and if that will happen, I will be the one to do that job, period. 20:43:01 amjjawad: whether it makes sense, or not. it is a decree soon to be announced on the forum. 20:43:06 it's NOT that I don't want help but I'm the only one who really understands how things are there and stuff like that 20:43:23 phillw: with all due respect, you guys still misunderstand LOST 20:43:39 LOST is NOT all about HOWTOS, wrong. HOWTOs is just ONE little section on the whole thing 20:43:45 You will still 'own' the forum area for chat etc. All they are saying is that tech stuff goes onto the wiki where it belongs. 20:43:51 anyway, long story short, let me worry about it PLEASE 20:44:21 amjjawad: well, let us know if you need a hand a any point. :) 20:44:28 amjjawad: What is your timetable for having it turned into a wiki page? Can you give us an expected date? 20:44:30 +1 20:44:33 Sorry, connections issues in precise it seems (at least I hope it's my pc) 20:44:36 michael_rawson: as always u r the first in mind :) 20:44:54 amjjawad isn't going to move it to the wiki 20:44:59 jmarsden|work: sadly I can't but if I start the work, I will focus 100% on taht 20:45:17 kanliot: please, refer back to what I said earlier ;) 20:45:37 jmarsden|work: 1-3 days maybe? idk yet 20:46:01 amjjawad: you need not do this alone, break it into bite sized pieces and we will all assist from the wiki area. 20:46:02 OK. So by next meeting this will be decided and (hopefully) done. 20:46:19 phillw: if you want me to do this, you need to know one simple fact 20:46:37 Yes, let's make it a team effort for a change 20:46:56 I will send an email after the meeting about that. HOWTOs is a small tiny area form LOST. LOST is an index to ALL the important linnks for Lubuntu 20:46:57 amjjawad, be sure to talk to phillw or to docs team people, to know where to put it on the wiki 20:47:16 so if I want to move the HOWTOs to the wiki, that is a one man job that should NOT take so long 20:47:17 yeah i agree LOST does many different things 20:47:33 gilir: we had a practice earlier, and learned :) 20:47:34 so I promise I will organzie with phillw and MrChrisDruif :) 20:47:37 it is very importatnt considering how our website is outta date 20:47:43 so all we have is LOST 20:48:02 which is another reason to steal it from amjjawad 20:48:04 phillw, ok fine :) 20:48:39 MrChrisDruif, anything to add for the doc team ? 20:49:07 Why I'm so strict about it? because I spent days and nights over that thread and I'm sure by the time it takes that someone to really understand how things really work there, i would be done from converting it :P 20:49:11 I hope everything I said made it through my connection, but I think everything is said 20:50:31 The restructuring of the team made it through? 20:50:48 ok thanks MrChrisDruif :) 20:50:50 MrChrisDruif: Yes 20:51:06 Alright, then everything I wanted to say made it through 20:51:17 #topic Yorvyk - Weekly reminder of upcoming meeting 20:51:37 o/ 20:52:12 There was a request on the list for a reminder to go out about these meetings. 20:52:29 Just set your smartphone or alarm clock or PC calendar app to remind you of meetings... why burden a human with doing something a gadget can do? 20:52:47 jmarsden|work; cron? 20:52:51 jmarsden|work: because we change time & place :) 20:52:56 that's was also my opinion when I stoped sending the reminder 20:53:08 We do? It has been 2000 UTC for a LONG time AFAIK 20:53:22 the goal of having the meeting each week is not have to remind it all time :) 20:53:26 ahh, but allways in the same place :) 20:53:56 phillw; you mean *not always* in the same place? 20:54:01 UTC doesn't change, but "real" time changed for some people :) 20:54:17 gilir: the goal is to have it AT the same time, just if we do not #ubuntu-meeting, people need to know we are in #lubuntu-offtopic? 20:54:26 Yorvyk, anyway, if someone want to send a reminder, I'm not against it 20:54:28 Yeah, and that got the error in for this week. I apologize for that 20:54:28 gilir: I was saying that someone needs to send an email in case some changes might happen 20:54:42 OK 20:54:47 Yorvyk, but, we need to be sure it's correctly booked on the fridge calendar 20:55:18 amjjawad, in case of modification, that's make sense 20:55:29 gilir: +1 20:55:31 gilir: then I propose MrChrisDruif to do that, as he books the calender for us. 20:55:47 phillw: +1 :D 20:55:47 I'll have a look in "creating a GMT calendar" like the Fridge suggest so I can have an indefinite loop 20:55:53 otherwise, well, any phone with a calendar should do the trick :) 20:56:11 gilir: +1 20:57:07 gilir: action it to MrChrisDruif :) 20:57:13 OK, I thought I'd ask as it was mentioned. 20:57:19 gilir; action me for creating a GMT calendar with no daylight saving for adding to the Fridge 20:57:43 #action MrChrisDruif to create meeting event in frige calendar 20:57:43 * meetingology MrChrisDruif to create meeting event in frige calendar 20:58:10 I know what is meant, I'll get on it 20:58:22 thnx 20:58:27 you can't action yourself ? 20:58:33 thanks MrChrisDruif 20:58:52 gilir: not unless you co-host as chair 20:59:00 this bot is strict :) 20:59:13 ok, let's move to the next item 20:59:14 I probably could, but you are chair right? ;-) 20:59:28 #topic amjjawad - Weekly report - Update from Support Team 20:59:45 Everything I was about to say has already been said :) 20:59:52 I was about to talk about LOST :) 21:00:03 After this meeting, me and phillw will have a chat but not sure where? 21:00:11 phillw: where shall we chat? 21:00:19 amjjawad: in PM 21:00:28 where? facebook? 21:00:32 or my email? 21:00:50 in the PM I already have open with you. 21:00:56 ok, so you can continue after the meeting 21:01:00 phillw: ok :) 21:01:06 and .... 21:01:20 I'm still looking for active members who can help Lubuntu to grow bigger 21:01:24 I'm hunting :P 21:01:34 that is all from my side :) 21:01:40 amjjawad; stand in line please 21:02:07 MrChrisDruif: ??? 21:02:09 Docs have dips on new members! ;-) 21:02:16 thanks amjjawad :) 21:02:22 gilir: :) 21:02:27 #topic Any Other Business 21:03:00 any thing to add before the end of the meeting ? 21:03:00 Crazy couple of weeks, but by heck is 12.04 looking good :D 21:03:14 phillw, +1 21:03:26 yes, and after that, we have to prepare the 12.10 21:03:31 thanks to everyone who makes lubuntu...... well lubuntu :) 21:03:34 Good to hear seeing I'll be putting it on computers of my brother and sister-in-law 21:03:35 crazy circle :) 21:03:49 oh one more thing to add :P 21:04:00 circle of life? :) 21:04:01 I'd like to thank wxl who is not hear right now 21:04:16 Lubuntu Official Group on Facebook is going GREAT.
