Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo 18:22 with a link to good information at psychocats.net would be better linking to good information at wiki.ubuntu.com 18:22 that sounds like something I can do. 18:23 the wiki part anyway 18:23 ok, so in general the factoid cleanup has not lead to the end of the world as we know it, and might be a good thing 18:23 that would be great phunyguy :) 18:23 We tried this a couple years back. If the info on psychocats for example is good, why copy it? 18:23 there might be other things with dead links 18:24 or outdated information 18:24 fyi /me is pretty sure that aysiu is not doing much in the way of maintaining psychocats 18:24 Then maybe we should just check for dead/outdated information 18:25 making sure the info we link to is good, is good. 18:26 good 18:26 I mean agreed. 18:26 :) 18:26 #action review factoids for links to unmaintained or outdated information, prefering links to official sources 18:26 * meetingology review factoids for links to unmaintained or outdated information, prefering links to official sources 18:27 #topic Call for Operators 18:28 ok, so we did a call for operators, which we do roughly in line with the development cycle to be part of the cadence of the project as a whole 18:28 https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-irc/2014-April/001692.html 18:29 may i notice also #ubuntu-doc could do well with one more (active) operator in the doc team. 18:29 there are a number of applicants that we have been looking at, we have received feedback from a number of people, which is given confidentially, we are open to any further feedback, we also looked at things like the lines of text said in the various channels and launchpad karma (neither of which is an overriding factor) 18:29 knome: thats not a core channel, so they can just ask us if they need to add another person onto the access list there. 18:30 Pici, then consider me just asked :) 18:30 now we need to decide, if we have enough IRCC here at the moment 18:30 knome: Well, you'd have to give us the account of the person you want us to add too. 18:30 Pici, you can add me 18:30 AlanBell, PM is okay? 18:30 hggdh: Tm_T: here? 18:31 knome: yeah, fine or #ubuntu-irc-council 18:31 Pici: feel free to add me there also. I'm in that channel anyway I can easily keep an eye on it too 18:31 where I should be 18:32 IdleOne: knome: done and done 18:32 * IdleOne ^5's knome 18:32 we're op buddies now! 18:32 :P 18:32 get a room 18:32 k 18:32 :( 18:32 IdleOne, lol 18:32 Pici, thanks 18:32 np 18:34 hmm 18:34 ok guys i know this is the important bit that i wanted to be here for, but it's late and I need to get the kids to bed....apologies all around :( 18:34 I think we will decide on them later, as soon as possible when all 4 of the IRCC are about, we will communicate the results to the applicants and the list 18:34 but any further feedback now would be great 18:35 Agreed. We will communicate internally, place our votes, and then communicate the results 18:35 ok, there are no membership applications so any other business really 18:36 #topic Any Other Business 18:36 sorry potential ops... we'll try to get this finished up as soon as we can. 18:36 yeah, hopefully later today or tomorrow, no need for any further delay on that 18:36 :( 18:36 agreed 18:36 hi, sorry I don't have capability until tomorrow 18:37 tomorrow we have a meeting with the Community Council, is there anything particular we should raise with them? 18:38 Compliments on their choice of timing? 18:38 a very happy 14.04 to all 18:39 :) 18:39 ditto. 18:40 thanks and same to you. 18:41 :D 18:41 speaking of 14.04, it is release day tomorrow, we have a few things that causes in terms of factoid changes I believe 18:41 we don't have a name for 14.10 yet do we? 18:42 not that I know of 18:42 !14.10 18:42 nope 18:42 Unicorn! 18:42 Universal Unicorn 18:43 14.10 Ubuntu Ubuntu (So nice we said it twice) 18:43 AlanBell: We should probably figure out how to get the config values on ubottu changed before then 18:43 since we always have to bug ts1mpson about it 18:44 I think you can bug unit193 about it too. he should know 18:44 hopefully one of you has enough access to make the changes 18:46 ok, any other items around release, or any other things to discuss? 18:47 guess that means another UDS coming up as well 18:47 yippee, another UDS that is not really accessible to most users 18:48 there was a 14.03 UDS, next one would be 14.06 perhaps 18:50 next meeting will be . . . 21st May, same time 18:50 in the absence of anything else, lets wrap this one up . . . . 18:50 #endmeeting Generated by MeetBot 0.1.5 (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology)
