The chair is warlordfff. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.debian.org/MeetBot. 09:16:35 Useful Commands: #action #agreed #help #info #idea #link #topic. 09:24:17 good evening helen_au 09:24:33 gnokii, hi Sirko 09:24:43 Hello helen_au 09:24:48 just wrote a mail with the posters 09:24:56 hi kostas 09:25:20 I thought I'd pop in and see what was happening with the collab 09:25:35 well 09:25:44 we just started 09:25:56 great 09:26:07 Find the etherpad we created for today http://manugupt1.ietherpad.com/os-Collab-Ambassador? 09:26:13 yep 09:28:13 first banner bad idea 09:28:27 example the GNOME booth box is lost 09:28:35 worth 2500 € lost 09:28:56 hi I'm back 09:28:58 next example looked for sending it to swiss for froscamp costs 900€ 09:29:03 Hi helen_au 09:29:25 so its cheaper to print a banner for every ambassador on the end as sending them via postal service in the round 09:29:56 gnokii you are propably right 09:29:58 sorry what's that about banner? 09:29:58 gnokii: It seems that the GNOME booth box has much more material than is propose here. 09:30:08 helen_au: First item on the etherpad 09:30:21 right, back shortly after I've read. 09:30:46 the gnome Event Kit contains a complete PC set 09:31:08 yes AJaeger but I looked for sending a thing to .ve in april it was 40 times cheaper to buy that there 09:32:00 gnokii: Yes, that might be true - and therefore the idea was to have them distributed. Have one banner in Brazil for all of Brazil (or all of South America) - whatever works best. 09:32:03 AJaeger: we can ask michl how iften was the rollup from SUSE is gone ;) 09:32:31 gnokii: not that often 09:32:36 ooh 09:32:51 gnokii: That's why the idea was to have a local banner master that took care of it... 09:32:55 we propably make more events that SUSE 09:32:56 one was gone after Desktop Summit and one after LinuxTag I thaught 09:33:36 That's not often ;) 09:33:49 well part of the goal of that item in warlordfff's list is to look at the cost analysis of shipping 09:33:52 oft enough or what costs one of it? 09:34:08 vs. what it costs to send to everyone. We have more ambassadors than events. 09:34:22 is ok to add thoughts to pad? 09:34:39 of cource 09:34:52 mmh then it should be thaught about costs before "who manage it" 09:34:55 and don't forget the cost of stands to go with the banners 09:35:06 of course 09:35:27 but we did think about costs when Jos and I discussed budget and we realized it was cheaper to do it this way 09:36:21 then please tell us ur calculation 09:36:24 well on that we must see in how many countries we make events 09:36:51 well if we calculated US as an example here 09:37:02 for 5 major events in US 09:37:14 shipping cost is about $10USD 09:37:27 what sort of budget for give-away promotional items? 09:37:57 and if we sent 2 banners each printed cost about $25 09:38:15 and stands cost about $60 if I remember off the top of my head 09:38:47 so already right here in US its much cheaper to have banner masters like other organizations do 09:38:55 why u sent two banners? 09:39:21 prefer 3? 09:39:38 2 sound reasonable 09:39:54 for the 2 sides of the booth 09:40:10 one horizontal banner that is behind the booth and 1 upright banner for next to booth table 09:40:16 I prefer one, thens only 5$ more then sending it with the post so its amortized after 1,5 events 09:41:05 gnokii, but that's the thing. Now I don't know how it looks in your area, but here in US. our openSUSE Booths look amateur compared to Fedora booth because of their professional banner distribution 09:41:49 gnokii we are not running alone, we have to compete against others 09:41:58 simple solution for me I used a beamer last event for the background 09:42:05 so we have to be at least like them 09:42:32 that wouldn't have worked at OLF for sure. 09:42:45 beamer? 09:42:58 some booths don't have depth for beamers (projectors) 09:43:03 oh 09:43:16 suseROCKs: its simpler to make one banner for the front, and posters for the background because u never know how many place is there 09:43:16 and how many people have access to a beamer? 09:43:55 well it cost me cheaper to print the banners myself than buy a beamer 09:43:59 could we get sponsorship for banners? 09:44:13 thats a great idea 09:44:14 helen_au, we've got that. 09:44:16 have nothing to do with access was the example what can be done with using head and cretivity 09:44:17 kk 09:44:42 helen_au, Jos is prepared to spend the budget on these banners with distribution. We're just awaiting design and determination of who should be the banner masters 09:45:28 gnokii you are probably right about creativity but uniformity should exist 09:45:37 suseROCKs, then is it useful to worry about alternatives? 09:45:37 among us 09:45:44 if we're going to have the banners available? 09:46:08 helen_au, I don't think so. The determination now should be how to move forward 09:46:09 I figure the point of a resource kit is that it saves having to use too much creativity 09:46:12 the basics are there 09:46:14 ready to go 09:46:19 unpack the box, unfurl the banner 09:46:20 and bang 09:46:23 you have your booth. 09:46:26 exactly 09:46:27 We are just waiting for the contibution from the marketing team, but always same, talking talking talking 09:46:56 well I disagree 09:46:59 gnokii, I just sent an email re your poster text by the way 09:47:01 gnokii, we were ready to go ahead in September, but you asked us to wait on the banners. So we suspended per your request 09:47:54 hope one day begins suseROCKs to listen to others 09:48:24 gnokii, we DID listen to you. You asked us to wait until after openSUSE Conference. Now you complaining that we didn't? Which is it? 09:49:06 we had an discussion about visual identity on confernce, I made immediatly after it an piratepad still waiting for contribution there, some times suseROCKs should listen to Nuno when he says took years and think about what happen when, he only talk instead doing 09:49:45 gnokii, Nuno also said we have to recognize that we can't always wait for that and there are always more pressing needs that need to be taken care of 09:50:05 hope someone presses u to do ur part 09:50:13 why there is that disagreement? 09:50:16 not always commanding troops 09:50:33 gnokii, hope you don't tell us to stop doing something and then complain when we didn't do it. Would be a nice change of pace for once. 09:50:35 today we co-operate 09:50:49 ok gentlemen, let's focus on what we need to do to move forward 09:51:06 hey CarlosRibeiro 09:51:26 banners are going ahead, once Jos has budget, right? We just need design, and decide who takes care of them. 09:51:59 right 09:52:02 mr. suseROCKs what ur main problem is ur always to the second step for the first one, and when I say stop it make the first one its not right 09:52:18 so is there any sample designs put forward already? or waiting on some information? 09:52:33 helen_au: yes u saw them I work on it 09:52:40 oh the colored set? 09:52:42 ok good 09:52:48 they are great 09:52:49 and I can not do more then work 16hrs a day 09:52:58 can you please give a link ? 09:53:01 Morning 09:53:15 CarlosRibeiro, jospoortvliet hello! 09:53:22 warlordfff: as I said plz read mails not only send nice answers! 09:53:40 is that in your last mail? 09:54:05 I read more than 60 mails a day man 09:54:10 helen_au: morning 09:54:10 http://karl-tux-stadt.de/ktuxs/?p=2922&cpage=1 09:54:26 lolz my inbox has 2000 unread mails.... 09:54:31 ok I saw that yesterday 09:54:36 really nice 09:54:37 yep those are the banner designs 09:54:52 warlordfff: I give u some from me I have arround 400 a day, but still u can write stupid mails think a little bit on it 09:55:03 I also made a comment on the ML 09:55:08 nice work. I just emailed, if you guys more familiar can start pirate pad with titles and any key points, I'll do up some text 09:55:11 to make a start 09:55:23 sure u commented then u have the link 09:55:27 sorry that was garbled 09:55:37 gnokii please calm down man 09:56:03 I am not talking to you that way 09:56:17 its the 2nd time you do it 09:57:29 so regarding the text for the banners, what I meant was for someone familiar with the distribution aims eg Jos 09:57:36 to make a few notes for me to start with 09:57:43 so I know the direction and tone to write about 09:58:41 helen_au: sorry I am not the expert for it especially have to work under pressure 09:59:26 do you have a list of titles for your posters? (most I can guess from the pictures0 10:00:10 for some there exists old, for some I had ideas like OBS or YaST 10:00:31 for some I have no idea like kiwi, education, medical 10:01:09 ok I'll just start something, and I'll email a link to the marketing team, can I request that someone checks in and helps? 10:01:14 when I send that 10:01:39 because I don't know the current status/aims/etc discussed at conference 10:02:45 about cheat sheets 10:03:10 the result from conference doesnt matter anymore, because I made that decission what was needed alone (not happy about) 10:03:12 I believe I saw somewhre but I just cannot remember where 10:03:49 gnokii, I think so few of us actively working, that happens... we just take it on.... 10:04:31 cheat sheets are a great idea... command line etc. Especially useful for noobs or transitioning from DEB based distro 10:04:43 helen_au: on the piratepad was most such things written like, looking fresh and such guiding things for doing the graphical work 10:04:57 yeah 10:05:21 AJaeger, is there a way to extract the slides that come with the oS installer? 10:05:41 gnokii, well you've accomplished that 10:05:55 gnokii, I'll use the existing texts as a guide to the sort of style that might suit. 10:05:56 suseROCKs: The contents is on the media... 10:06:02 maybe more brief. 10:06:44 AJaeger, I have a digital frame that I'm using at booths now, and was thinking of setting up those slides for the upcoming openSUSE booth at SCALE 10:07:02 suseROCKs: On each DVD: in directory suse/setup/slide 10:07:12 suseROCKs: shooting himself everytime in the knee 10:07:36 AJaeger, Cool 10:07:42 AJaeger: yeah but the texts are xml and the pics are different directories 10:07:48 suseROCKs: we can record a virtual os instalatin and take some snapshots during the installatin process 10:08:35 CarlosRibeiro, Could be. I was thinking just starting simple for now with what we have and then when I see how it looks on the digital frame build from there 10:08:37 maybe he should look at the snapshot page in the wiki and use the pics 10:09:02 CarlosRibeiro we did that as a Greek community 10:09:19 diamond_gr made it 10:09:38 Can we get that uploaded, or is it already uploaded, warlordfff? 10:10:03 I don't think so 10:10:10 warlordfff: see thats the problem just looking in the wiki there is a page with snapshots from every step of the installation so that was already done 10:10:12 he'll be here later 10:10:46 I'll ask him 10:12:18 I have a virtual installation for 11.2 from youtube 10:12:37 I made it a videoclip for the release party 10:12:41 warlordfff, I'm volunteering to take C.4 10:13:12 C.4? the explosives? 10:13:13 http://en.opensuse.org/Screenshots 10:14:22 I found this one 10:14:24 http://el.opensuse.org/SDB:Live_CD_installation_for_11.3 10:14:35 take a look at the pictures 10:14:58 is that what you are looking for? 10:15:20 ^^ 10:18:13 Etern4L, hello 10:18:38 hi Etern4L 10:20:17 Etern4L still is sleepy 10:20:41 yeap i am sleepy wait i relog to another pc 10:22:24 just looking at this document, we ask a lot of ambassadors, big job. 10:22:55 helen_au: what u mean? 10:23:04 its a lot to do. 10:23:17 plannin, organizing, reporting... 10:23:29 well being an ambassador comes with all this 10:23:45 yeah. 10:23:50 ambassador is serius work 10:24:06 yes it is. 10:24:21 I am talking so that Etern4L hears me 10:24:23 ;-) 10:24:30 one suggestion - some way for them to keep all their information together 10:24:35 and easy to pass on. 10:24:41 yeap i am all ears! 10:24:45 things like local contacts and so on 10:24:53 people, events, phone numbers, helpful people 10:24:58 not public stuff for wiki 10:24:59 that is one of the reasons of this days creation 10:25:02 helen_au: u have not to do everything 10:25:30 actually you have to 10:26:02 its part of being responsible 10:26:05 I laugh later about the joke 10:26:13 comes with the ambassador title 10:26:37 why is that a joke? 10:27:19 suseROCKs: about slides for a digital frame or something, there is a bunch of screenshots usable for a slideshow about openSUSE on the wiki :D 10:27:49 there was times before u, there was very clear, thats up to the ambassador what is his way to spread the word about openSUSE 10:28:20 there are many ways to do something 10:28:59 but there is a main way that leads you to make things 10:29:00 I guess the point is to make it as easy for them to do their job as possible 10:29:05 however they want to do it 10:29:08 exactly 10:29:12 yes 10:29:17 tha't is the point 10:29:23 you give the information 10:29:36 jospoortvliet: what u think is my feeling when warlordfff do tell me what my job is? 10:29:38 so anyone who wants follows them 10:29:56 gnokii: I doubt he does, you usually see insults where no insults exist 10:30:02 jospoortvliet, sure. And I wanted to use the installer slideshow :-) 10:30:05 gnokii, are you an ambassador? 10:30:24 of course I runt this year 9 events 10:30:29 gnokii: warlordfff is pretty clear right now on what he tries to do: create guidelines on how to work to help new ambassadors 10:30:32 gnokii where exactly I made that? 10:30:37 cool 10:30:44 nevermind 10:30:52 warlordfff: don't bother 10:31:02 jospoortvliet ok 10:31:25 anyway 10:31:36 jospoortvliet, I'm working on your talking points page right now and btw... Good morning :-) 10:31:47 I would like opinions about "How to be an Ambassador mentor" document 10:31:52 [11:36] helen_au: u have not to do everything 10:31:53 [11:36] actually you have to 10:31:54 suseROCKs: +1 good morning too 10:32:17 gnokii: you're seeing ghosts again dude you say that kind of stuff all the time 10:32:29 please stop looking for a fight and complaining and either help or go 10:32:43 warlordfff: link? 10:32:47 I dont look for a fight 10:32:50 warlordfff: (sorry I am lazy) 10:32:53 gnokii: looks that way 10:32:55 you have to is not you must to 10:33:11 http://manugupt1.ietherpad.com/os-Collab-Ambassador? 10:33:53 warlordfff: ah that's semantics you were just saying that an ambassador is often all-round dude, gnokii knows exactly what you mean with that as he does all kinds of things too (from organizing sleeping place for other ambassadors to printing posters to planning to xxxxxxx) so he could just've said "you're right" but he'd rather see a problem 10:34:35 ok 10:34:41 jospoortvliet, so what I'm doing on this talking points page (and its related stuff) is review what's said and see what can be added/modified/bla bla and then I'm adding a "driving point" to each section 10:35:01 warlordfff: +1 yes, I think that 'how te be a mentor' thing would be good 10:35:15 suseROCKs: good I will also go over it later today OK? 10:35:24 mr. jospoortvliet u like to kidding me? 10:35:29 yes, you need to undo everything I did :-D 10:35:30 what sort of people do we have volunteering as ambassadors (relevant to mentoring question) 10:35:31 and we need to ask, again, for domain experts to look at the Q's and answer them... 10:35:38 suseROCKs: no not to undo but to try and add more :D 10:35:57 domain expert, that's a great term! 10:35:58 c'mere ya hairy lug!!! Gimme a hug, jospoortvliet! 10:36:04 yay 10:36:07 * jospoortvliet likes hugs 10:36:07 lolz 10:36:59 helen_au I wolud like to think ambassadors with some experience on events and stuff 10:37:15 maybe not so experienced with openSUSE though? 10:37:28 helen_au, well yes and no 10:37:37 hmm. 10:37:39 jospoortvliet: never saw warlordfff say that, I gave only helen_au an answer 10:38:12 should have multiple things to offer as mentor. For example, yes the mentor oughta know quite a bit about openSUSE, but also quite a bit about good interaction skills (which have nothing to do with openSUSE) 10:38:16 don't know how to copy text 10:38:30 helen_au I wolud like to think ambassadors with some experience on events and stuff 10:38:34 gnokii: it is what he meant, or at least, it is ONE interpretation. You must know as well as I do that IRC - pure text - you can interpret things any way you like. If you look for bad things in what someone says you can always find it. so DON'T DO THAT. 10:38:55 about your question on mentoring 10:39:02 well I was firstly asking about what sort of people are already volunteering as ambassadors 10:39:04 helen_au 10:39:10 fuck man, I didnt interpret that stuff u interpreted there the problem is 10:39:19 oh ok helen_au 10:39:20 because if they are already suse people, or not suse people, that's a different need. 10:39:41 gnokii, pull your head in mate let's get on with the job 10:39:46 when I say something and some other say the opposite then there is nothing to interpret for me 10:39:51 helen_au, well... I think that's a pretty valid question, especially in terms of how new they might be to openSUSE. 10:39:55 I don't think the mentor needs many skills or anything specific other than having been around longer than the mentoree... which in itself is helpful enough. Of course a mentor should be nice to the mentoree but I guess that's a given :D 10:40:15 I'll taken that! :-D 10:40:45 gnokii: yes that is the problem you interpret things other than I do - you often see the negative in what ppl say. But they don't mean it so bad, so you have a fight or are mad about nothing. which is a problem here. 10:41:14 so for u is a yes an no ok 10:41:15 for example for me being new to suse, I've found it useful for people to tell me about past suse stuff, and also open source stuff.... I can write and do that part of my job well, but the 'insider' stuff I need help with. 10:41:16 it needs to stop. You don't need to accept unfriendly behavior but you see it where it is not there and that's the problem. 10:41:17 helen_au, Typically what I've often seen is the new ones haven't been exposed to the overall project, so mentoring should encourage them to look beyond just the marketing stuff 10:41:29 gnokii: I just don't expect ppl to be so negative 10:42:07 find it more and more funny, that some talking to me about interpreting things and do it always self 10:42:14 helen_au: exactly. I think anyone who is new can do that, right? at least to some extend... 10:42:30 so an ambassador only needs to have been around for a while longer than the new person and he/she can give enough info I would say. 10:42:40 (let's focus on job in hand please boys, and leave our egos at the door!) 10:43:00 gnokii: if you don't want to see my point that is OK but let's please stop the discussion and let the others work 10:43:05 well done helen_au 10:43:20 Muito bem! 10:44:02 Someone who has been here long enough to know "who's who" 10:44:22 I'd rather point to a "what's what" or at least get us into the mentality of htat 10:44:25 and knows who to ask for answers they don't know, and also has done the similar job in open source if possible. 10:44:33 helen_au: my opinion for mentoring is a easy one 10:44:45 suseROCKs, I see the difference that's a good poitn 10:44:55 gnokii, yeah? 10:45:20 so u see in the last days liquidsky42 joined sometime this channel or? 10:45:23 suseROCKs: well ppl are important too so what's what AND who's who hehe but that's all details 10:45:23 * warlordfff going for a cup of cofee 10:45:31 warlordfff: enjoy :D 10:46:19 jospoortvliet, you should most definitely learn about who's who around the what's what. But one problem we've had in the past has been to point someone to a person rather than a resource of information. And if that person is for some reason unavailable, the earth stops moving. 10:46:32 yes, you are right 10:46:53 yes excellent point 10:47:15 I do find helen_au's experience of "learning the history" to be an interesting point. How well do we document our history? 10:47:16 suseROCKs: you were talking about slideshows 10:47:18 http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Slideshow 10:47:51 suseROCKs: our history is documented very well... Go to an openSUSE conference and get drunk with ppl like cornelius, klaas, henne... you'll know more than you want to at the end ;-) 10:47:54 and you'll have a headache 10:48:02 cuz the bloody germans can drink like nobody else :D 10:48:05 I don't know that I'd want it fed to me like that! 10:48:05 hehe 10:48:10 it's more been in discussion 10:48:11 informally 10:48:15 people tell me stuff 10:48:23 yeah 10:48:42 and when I first started working with the project, Jos was "holding my hand" checking in on my work, lots of compliments 10:48:46 which was very encouraging 10:48:51 jospoortvliet, nope thatot what I was looking for :-) 10:49:01 so I think that sort of thing is important from a mentor 10:49:13 helen_au: I' 10:49:15 it helps you feel like you belong, that what you are doing is useful 10:49:19 helen_au: I will take that as a compliment then :D 10:49:21 yes helen_au thats what we are talking about 10:49:31 but modeling the mentors to me is not good. Too huggy :D 10:49:34 so you can't formalize that too much 10:49:44 helen_au: indeed 10:50:04 not formalize but recomend a few people 10:50:09 did I read that right? Did jospoortvliet actually use "too" and "huggy" in the same sentence??? 10:50:11 so that's what I said before, the mentors don't need many skills just a little experience in openSUSE (having been around a bit longer than the newby) and being friendly 10:50:22 suseROCKs: no you didn't read that right. Must be your eyes getting worse. 10:50:29 :-P 10:50:32 so that someone new will feel comfortable enough to contact him 10:50:45 the right eye can't get any worse. it's completely blind :-P 10:50:56 brb 10:50:59 ahahaha 10:51:01 warlordfff: I think we need at least 1 or 2 ppl per region, so mentors are close to mentorees both in culture and location. again, low barrier for being mentor I would say :D 10:51:08 suseROCKs: lol 10:51:41 jospoortvliet that is what Stathis recomended 10:51:49 jospoortvliet: what about no mentors? 10:52:19 gnokii: also possible, not have a official position but just ask on the list 'hey, here's a new dude, anyone can show him/her around?' 10:52:21 and that would be it 10:52:22 welcome sir henne 10:52:31 moin 10:52:36 henne: moin moin 10:52:54 i trust everything is okay with you after last week, henne? 10:52:57 I mean what is going on here right now is only creat rules who can become a mentor, sorry I do that job before u created rules 10:53:05 suseROCKs: yeah. everything in order 10:53:21 gnokii, there were no rules suggested 10:53:46 The document that is being proposed is an advisory. Not a set of rules. 10:53:52 gnokii: I thought we were coming to an agreement that mentors don't have rules 10:54:01 again, you seem to interpret things very different from the rest of us 10:54:28 jospoortvliet: not rules for the mentor! 10:54:52 I saw it very clear "Where can become a mentor" thats the rule I meant 10:55:12 henne, Quick question. We've got meetbot running atm, which I feel should only be run in quick periods. Is there a detriment (other than really long logs) to running it for the full collaboration day? 10:55:16 s/where/who/ 10:55:37 we just try and think about how to do this best - give new ppl someone to talk to directly. And ppl wanted to help out so asked 'how to become mentor' so we need to describe that 10:55:39 suseROCKs: nope. should be fine 10:55:53 - basically, with your plan we let ppl volunteer when a new person comes in 10:56:04 I think I'd rather have a way to contact a possible mentor directly 10:56:07 more chance of working 10:56:09 so have a list 10:56:14 doesn't have to be a mentor list actually 10:56:15 ok, henne thanks. warlordfff guess leaving it running all day should be fine 10:56:29 I think @all that our ambassador list (recently cleaned up) could be used 10:56:33 but someone needs to close it right? 10:56:36 mabe have a 'flag' on ppl who want to be mentor 10:56:48 yes 10:56:53 plus 10:57:09 sounds like a good idea re flag 10:57:10 jospoortvliet, Wouldn't the easiest way to seek out a mentor be to send an email to the ambassador ML "Hi I'd like to be an ambassador and would love some advice"? 10:57:14 and the ambassador welcoming team can then, when someone joins, just pick a mentor close to that person from the list. contact the mentor, you OK with helping this person, and done. 10:57:16 preferred point of contacts 10:57:19 except perhaps for language barrier issues 10:57:26 informations for those who like to be mentors so that they have quick answers to questions 10:57:35 suseROCKs: well part of the problem there is that if you ask on the ML nobody steps up, if you ask a person they say "yeah sure!" 10:57:35 jospoortvliet: is that not a normal thing that the ambassadors in a country gets connected? 10:57:43 so that's why I propose the more listy way :D 10:57:46 jospoortvliet, that's true 10:57:50 gnokii: I would hope so :D 10:58:01 well 10:58:16 gnokii: usually, at least in NL, and I guess germany, ppl get to know each other, right? meet at conferences and such... so getting a local mentor works better I think 10:58:19 as they can meet 10:58:27 helen_au: yup 10:58:30 something like that 10:58:31 there are some countries that have only one and new ambassador like Belarus 10:58:45 someone should help them too 10:58:46 I dont know what the others do, but I look always form my collegues, so on some I know they dont do events and for the new ones I write. And then they telling me when they have questions 10:59:07 warlordfff: so the welcome team can find someone close to that country for example the country next to it... brazil can help Peru.... etc 10:59:27 I must say that Fedora project have a mentoring system and its working fine 10:59:30 gnokii: sorry that sentence I cannot parse 10:59:34 and I took some new guys with me at events an of course they learned there, so is a naturally thing, no new Title and rules to become that title is really needed 11:00:10 gnokii: yeah it doesn't have to be a big title but just a friend - mentor is a good name for that, point is, we want to make sure every new member has a person to talk to. Doesn't always happen naturally. 11:00:15 gnokii, You keep putting a formality on things that aren't that formal. Its just mentorship and there's no rules to it. 11:00:18 so we formalize it a little bit 11:00:22 suseROCKs: indeed 11:00:30 jospoortvliet: I mean with saigkill or dl9pf I havent talk about doing an event with me, the others I ask and so we get connected 11:01:12 gnokii, so... put that experience into the document. Or at least relate it to someone who can write it up for you. 11:01:25 let others learn from what you've done and expand upon it 11:01:26 so jospoortvliet u say it self its a natural thing, so why I have to read then "who can be a mentor" 11:01:29 I think it's a good idea to have someone who knows it is their job to mentor new ambassadors. Otherwise it's easy for quiet people to be forgotten and drift off. Having someone call you up and say "how did your event go?" is a great thing. 11:01:44 gnokii: because while it mostly works like you say it doesn't always work smoothly 11:01:58 it also helps keep things in order 11:02:03 so to fill the gaps we make it a little bit more formal - the welcoming team tries to find a mentor and let him/her talk to the newbie. nothing more 11:02:13 helen_au: exactly 11:02:20 jospoortvliet: and u think, make a sign with "thats a mentor" works better? 11:02:34 let's move on from this topic please, gnokii 11:02:40 gnokii: no 11:02:54 what helps is if a possible mentor gets asked to mentor ppl 11:03:04 yeah think there are more important things as mentors for the ambassadors 11:03:14 the title doesn't make a damn difference, the difference is that someone goes after it 11:03:19 like? 11:03:20 and now I've had it stop talking about this please 11:03:23 get over it gnokii 11:03:25 darn 11:03:45 so jospoortvliet then maybe u understand a little bit my problem 11:04:13 clearly we all have different ideas about how things can be done 11:04:22 the point right now is to find some general consensus 11:04:27 and that's the beauty of collaboration 11:04:33 yeah 11:04:36 I think most people seem to want some sort of formalization 11:04:39 I feeled me responsible for it and I did it 11:04:40 oh we agree so nicely :D 11:04:50 gnokii: well that's great but not everyone is so responsible sometimes 11:04:57 so that's why we let the team try and find a mentor 11:04:59 ok? 11:05:14 not a big list of rules and to-dos, but at least people identified and tasked with minding newbies 11:05:36 now there are 5 ppl trying to convince you, gnokii, and even if you're not convinced, I frankly don't care much anymore. I say we move on from this and get back to work 11:05:39 this is wasting time 11:05:55 guys, we're speding too much time arguing on these points. We have a nice long laundry list we want to tackle today 11:06:06 ok 11:06:09 ok so what's the next point to look at 11:06:36 WIKI: Ambassador Portal 11:06:41 helen_au, On the list or in specific to a task you're working on? 11:06:42 what about that? 11:06:52 on your list for today 11:08:01 henne is a stellar speaker. henne any possibility you're interested in any of the assignments under "Presenting"? 11:08:10 http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Ambassadors 11:08:20 suseROCKs: hm? 11:08:56 http://manugupt1.ietherpad.com/os-Collab-Ambassador henne 11:09:03 helen_au I was asking you opinion about it 11:09:28 if you think we should add something to it 11:09:37 warlordfff, oh right 11:09:46 suseROCKs: nope sorry 11:09:52 suseROCKs: nothing there i could help with 11:09:55 warlordfff, Tbh, I think that wiki section should be dealt with later in the day (unless someone knows of some immediate needs) until we have gathered up all the new docs and make sure its all organized relevantly 11:10:07 so that pepople find a larger amount of gathered information 11:10:19 henne, okie dokie 11:10:41 I am just asking for proposals not actuall work on the wiki today 11:11:07 yep the wiki needs a little work. The piratepad we are looking at can contribute a lot to it 11:11:12 jospoortvliet: do you like to give a special interview for today? 11:11:24 ok I'm putting my head back into my work assignment. 11:11:28 CarlosRibeiro: well sure about what? 11:11:30 personally I find wikis a bit of a nightmare so probably won't contribute much to that aspect. 11:11:38 jospoortvliet: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Ambassadors/oS-Collab-Ambassador#Interview_to_be_sent 11:11:42 btw if anyone is into the Seigo-space-crack, look here: http://i.imgur.com/m498L.png 11:11:54 helen_au: that's fine :D 11:12:19 jospoortvliet: is didn't finish the questions, but think in someting you like to say to the linux magazine 11:12:31 CarlosRibeiro: just send it by mail dude and I will look at it :D 11:12:42 CarlosRibeiro: having a good day there in sunny brazil? 11:12:44 * jospoortvliet is jealous 11:12:54 and in one or two hours we can finish that and sent to the editor 11:14:08 yes, today is a sunny day at praia grande, http://bit.ly/gSXWfT 11:16:52 * gnokii launches a snowball against CarlosRibeiro 11:18:01 gnokii: :D 11:18:50 dammit as we have no snow over here I will launch a fresh bananas crishtmas at gnokii 11:19:01 aah yeah 11:19:40 CarlosRibeiro: u saw the example? 11:19:55 Izabel was very happy about 11:20:35 I talked with izabel yesterday and she told me that are very happy 11:21:39 http://img.susepaste.org/97226284 11:21:40 and for everyone, she will came to my house at 26 December and will spend 3 days with me in Praia grande 11:22:14 ahaaa 11:22:20 but don't worries guys, my report about my days with izabel will come before 2011 ;D 11:23:12 * gnokii have to fetch his boat and to rowl over the atlantic to arrive before 26th at Carlos house 11:23:57 lost the piratepad, link please 11:23:57 http://img.susepaste.org/97226284 11:24:06 hoho izabelvalverde 11:24:11 lol were your ears burning izabel? 11:24:12 lovelly izabelvalverde 11:24:20 you will not die anymore 11:24:23 :D 11:25:16 so you guys missed me ? :D 11:25:31 gnokii, the colors are differnet in the lizard for this one 11:25:43 yeah we talked a few seconds before u arrived about u 11:26:03 yeah helen_au its the brazil flag, thats wath I have in mind with 11:26:12 aha 11:26:40 :D 11:26:44 izabelvalverde http://manugupt1.ietherpad.com/os-Collab-Ambassador? 11:26:49 but CarlosRibeiro looks not so happy, he say nothing to it 11:26:51 also welcome 11:26:53 now you say so...

(or the thick ones) for fundraisers etc 11:32:57 yeah 11:32:58 they are very trendy here. I thought they'd be a great promo item. Expensive to make though. 11:33:24 the very thin ones (about 5mm thick) have become more popular than the big ones. 11:34:20 I don't know if they'd appeal to the types of people that go to the conferences (at least around here) 11:34:28 jospoortvliet: mail sent 11:34:46 here, we see it as most definitely a kiddie thing and I rarely see anyone above very early 20's with one. 11:35:18 jospoortvliet: hurry up to we try to make this happeng and be publish today. ok ? 11:35:27 hehe 11:35:32 :D 11:35:44 ok 11:35:54 suseROCKs, think you're right, is mostly kids actually wear them. 11:36:17 my fave marketing thing to get is postit notes for my desk :) 11:37:04 that's usefull 11:37:14 CarlosRibeiro: wake up 11:37:21 and I believe it may have results 11:37:35 plus it's cheap I believe 11:37:38 the most useful things are the ones you hang onto and actually use 11:37:44 what I'd love to see is those little foam penguins, except as geekos that Novell gives out. Those were realllly popular at the OLF and lightweight for travel too. 11:37:53 I had a writer's postit notes from a conference for months, so I still remember her name 11:37:58 hold that thought for marketing day helen_au 11:38:09 warlordfff, okay :) 11:38:19 so what are we up to with the list of ambassador stuff 11:38:31 suseROCKs you have penguin and geeko post it? 11:38:42 no foam penguin 11:38:53 squishy? 11:38:53 oh 11:39:04 yeah kind of squishy. 11:39:22 helen_au you can put that too 11:39:28 * warlordfff forgot it 11:39:46 But I have no idea how much it cost Novell to make those in bulk 11:39:48 puffy is the word 11:40:06 I think 11:40:32 puffy would be like bloated. Squishy is more gel-based. this is actual painted foam 11:40:42 oh 11:40:43 ok 11:40:48 hmm. 11:40:55 I want one 11:41:01 I like soft toys but also 'useful' is good 11:41:07 more likely to hang around 11:41:16 unless you have a dog nearby :-) 11:41:28 oh 11:41:29 lol 11:41:45 anyway back to work.... ping me if you need anything 11:42:29 I need to go shortly too 11:43:00 henne, Do we have a comparison list somewhere of the amount of packages we include out of the box compared to other distros? 11:43:14 not that i know of no 11:43:24 distrowatch has something like this 11:43:36 but i don't know how they track this data 11:43:42 you talking installed or available? 11:43:48 installed 11:44:27 I'm looking at the beginner user section of our talking points page and thinking its good to point out that we have more items than a certain distro that shall remain nameless for at least a second or two 11:44:35 personally I've never quite 'gotten' that idea, because it's so easy to install new stuff with a click 11:44:54 reviews always make a big deal about it 11:45:02 helen_au, problematic if you don't have internet access :-) 11:45:19 suseROCKs, ah that's a good point. 11:45:48 it was pretty frustrating to me when I was on the road with a fresh ubuntu installation in October and gimp wasn't part of Ubuntu's default 11:46:11 I've seen a question recently about openSUSE networking frustration - the guy couldn't get on the net at all 11:46:18 they use some other chopped down light-weight photo editing program instead. And I was like.. uhhh yeah right. i want GIMP! 11:46:34 yeah they dumped gimp a while ago 11:46:39 because it's too much for most users 11:47:10 ops I'm back 11:47:13 I don't buy that 11:47:39 I don't find it any less intutiive than say corel painter 11:47:51 sure its not the easiest program in the world, but when you think that "photoshop" has become such a mainstream word that it actually has become a verb, you don't take gimp (the competitor) out of the equation 11:47:52 not as much as the kiddy ones 11:48:10 but that's ubuntu for your. 11:48:13 for you 11:48:26 not that I'm going to start bagging them :) 11:48:38 so CarlosRibeiro tell me is that ok with the brazilian ppl? 11:48:49 no but I want a general statement about how we provide more than others (who shall remain nameless) :-) 11:48:56 lolz 11:49:14 I find I don't tend to recommend suse for total noobs 11:49:21 and I don't want that statement in there if it can't be backed by numbers or facts 11:49:25 if they are going to be terrified of starting up a terminal 11:49:35 I'll suggest ubuntu or even mint with its one-click driver install. 11:50:01 suseROCKs, good idea, someone will always call you on it.... 11:50:01 gnokii: no problem with us 11:50:26 frankly, I think that's just a gimmick on their part. I found myself so much more frustrated and had huge hardware problems when I used ubuntu last month. I was so glad to be back to a sane distro 11:50:48 yeah their network driver is bonkers 11:51:00 so was their partitioning methods! 11:51:05 but still... I think we forget how hopeless some users are 11:51:20 bless 'em. 11:51:22 ") 11:52:14 well it's bedtime here in Australia so I'm heading off, 11:52:30 hope you folks have a productive day :) 11:52:38 * helen_au waves at Manu on the way through the door 11:52:47 Good evening everyone 11:52:54 Good night heln 11:53:29 hello manugupt1 11:53:35 Hi CarlosRibeiro :) 11:53:37 nice to have you here 11:54:22 hey manugupt1 11:54:29 Hi warlordfff 11:54:53 finally you made it? 11:55:20 hi manugupt1 11:55:27 I took an exam right now..

So I'll use that as my base number :-D 12:16:04 suseROCKs, Dont.. 12:16:14 javier__ tommorow you may explain to me how it works? 12:16:20 They are not fully internationalised there are 58 languages.. 12:16:24 warlordfff: sure 12:16:37 manugupt1: indeed. 12:17:08 manugupt1, explain 12:17:21 suseROCKs, I speak hindi 12:17:35 und? 12:17:49 So when I use openSUSE in Hindi only about 10% of openSUSE is hindi maybe even less 12:18:08 ahh that's problematic indeed 12:18:15 suseROCKs: i18n.opensuse.org 12:18:48 so that means I can't say on our talking points "openSUSE boasts support of nearly 60 languages" then 12:19:20 yepp :( 12:19:24 Exactly.. you cannot but you can always say 12 languages which is again not supported by lots of other distros 12:19:24 for Yast in Greek I know we made almost 75 of the translation but we hope to reach 100% until 11.4 12:19:59 vertaal is a tool, and not all languages are there 12:20:05 it's optional to use it 12:20:23 ie: Greek with almost 76% 12:20:39 javier__: wow, thanks for share this info 12:21:06 henne, hmm that link doesn't show 11.3 stats. only up to 11.2 and trunk. 12:21:08 you're welcome 12:21:26 suseROCKs: might be outdated. find out :) 12:22:06 Ok..

I made some changes but not done yet. You can see them. 13:19:15 Yes.. saw them 13:19:27 manugupt1, as for checklist, I would recommend a more detailed list that is printed out. Not just a quick list here. 13:20:00 Some people, in rush of leaving town, tend to forget their items and they're not going to go back to the computer to look it up. Printing out and pplacing on top of suitcase will help a lot 13:20:08 Got it.. 13:20:27 Ok.. Check the checklist 13:20:34 Then I will make a pdf 13:20:36 so maybe for now, create it on etherpad and then solicit comments from people 13:21:06 Ok.. 13:21:13 where are the slides? 13:21:17 can't find them 13:21:18 I know jospoortvliet had some ideas as well for a checklist, and I'm sure we all have famous stories of our own of something that vexed us :-) 13:21:55 ah, here http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Presentations 13:22:31 manugupt1, I think its also worth pointing out organization of booth staff. 13:22:51 suseROCKs, No idea about that never did a booth 13:22:56 For example, making sure that everyone agrees what time they will be at the booth. 13:23:23 or everyone will be there all at once, or no one will be there at all cuz they're all at some presentation 13:24:31 Ok.. and 13:24:39 manugupt1: thats funny 13:24:48 gnokii, what? 13:24:59 [14:33] suseROCKs, No idea about that never did a booth 13:25:08 manugupt1, also part of organization, how to reach out to your local community to get volunteers to staff the booth 13:25:21 gnokii, I never did a booth.. whats funny about it 13:25:50 I have to try things before I can write an tutorial ;) 13:26:01 gnokii, Try not to put people down. He volunteered to start the page, and he's soliciting opinions and experiences from others to add to it. 13:26:13 He's not writing a tutorial. he's starting a page. 13:26:23 Please don't twist things around. 13:26:34 Yes.. gnokii same here.. I just added what others have done.. 13:26:35 suseROCKs: jospoortvliet has since months such a tutorial, somethimes is better to ask 13:26:51 and that's what he's doing. he's asking! 13:27:18 gnokii, Did not know about it 13:27:40 oh noticed this - http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Launch_party_HOWTO 13:27:50 saying nicely "Hey did you know there's a page already in existence" is a lot more productive than bashing people. You get nowhere fast that way. 13:28:15 wrong link 13:28:17 http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Events#Booth 13:28:35 jospoortvliet, I just consolidated them.. 13:28:39 jospoortvliet: That one should link to the new page... 13:29:58 manugupt1: good! 13:30:15 gnokii: yes it is more helpful to just point to the page 13:30:18 and get it merged 13:30:21 instead of talking around it 13:30:50 jospoortvliet: I dont know where it is exactly!!! I can only say its there 13:31:01 gnokii: I didn't know where it was but that's what search is for, right? 13:31:10 thought you were all about doing the work instead of talking? 13:31:11 even saying "I know there's a page already, but not sure what the link is" is helpful too. 13:31:16 suseROCKs: true 13:31:51 jospoortvliet: sorry but there are ppl they are not employed from novell and have sometimes to work, and they are not the only one who spent the night working! 13:32:18 what does that have to do with what manugupt1 did and why you called him funny? 13:32:59 anyway, jospoortvliet ... I'm still going thru the talking points. Some of the questions you have there don't really allow for a "feel-good answer" and require some frankness imo. What's your take on that? 13:33:10 suseROCKs: we should be honest... 13:33:28 and you're right, yes, there are some less nice things. But they are questions that get asked (most q's come from the ambassadors) 13:33:41 honest yes, but I'm saying is how to frame them. 13:34:30 Guys, my laptop is dead, I had the how to set up the booth on it, I will be tuesday before it will get fix. 13:34:42 we can put a positive spin on everything. We can say for driver issues "Hey its not our fault, its tthose damn proprietary manufuacturers not playing fair." Its kinda the truth but not a helpful answer :-) 13:34:57 true 13:35:04 well I guess it depends a bit on the subject 13:35:11 can you give me an example? (looking at the page now) 13:35:28 I think the drivers issue is a good example 13:35:37 under beginners section I believe 13:35:47 jospoortvliet, Mint has multimedia links why does not openSUSE give it 13:35:58 jospoortvliet, UBUNTU comes with flash why not openSUSE 13:36:05 are few very good examples 13:36:31 ok so about the hardware part 13:36:38 I think the current text is good suseROCKs 13:36:40 and some of these questions, we need to ask the right "decision-makers" in the Project instead of looking for positive spins on everything. :-) 13:36:42 Broadcom drivers for some reason are installble easily on UBUNTU / debian based staion but why not openSUSE 13:36:49 maybe add that later versions always add a lot new hardware support 13:36:51 because Mint is a project and only a project and there is no company behind who cant be comf before the court for that 13:36:52 because of the media restrictions that are place by the US 13:36:58 and there are ways of working around things but they are often complicated 13:37:00 and more for experts 13:37:06 of course openSUSE does offer those as options 13:37:15 suseROCKs: true 13:37:21 gnokii: terrorpup: yup 13:37:25 those are the issues 13:37:41 jospoortvliet: can we make the Q/A section easier? 13:37:44 its simple 13:37:48 the non-company line isn't good either, because all that does is tell the user, if you really want to get away with it, go somewhere that's completely unsponsored. 13:37:50 that why there a whole page on open page on opensuse-community that explain it. 13:37:56 gnokii: where is that? 13:37:59 gnokii, terrorpup exactly but they do not get it ;) 13:38:21 manugupt1: terrorpup suseROCKs we could just link to the opensuse-community page 13:38:26 at some point there is not more we can do 13:38:32 it's USA legal stuff, nobody likes it... 13:38:47 that's reasonable too 13:38:47 plus, Novell charges for the box version that has license media codecs and I think drive for some hardware 13:38:50 what we do now, is a little bit stupid let me explain 13:38:54 jospoortvliet, I dont know.. But can we have a first time installer too 13:39:06 manugupt1: what? 13:39:18 terrorpup: novell doesn't have a box version of openSUSE 13:39:24 the box version of openSUSE is sold by openSLX 13:39:24 manugupt1, a "first time installer" isn't as likely to ask the codecs question though. 13:39:28 doesn't have codecs 13:39:36 (they want to but it's expensive - very expensive) 13:39:47 Like I install openSUSE for the first time, then I have this installer at my desktop 13:39:54 this installer is a .ymp file 13:39:58 manugupt1: which installs the codecs etc>? 13:40:00 illegal... 13:40:12 Ok.. 13:40:20 basically nothing which runs on Novell infrastructure can even REFER to illegal things (from USA perspective) 13:40:33 so even the wiki, as long as it's run in USA, can not point to it 13:40:34 ... 13:40:40 jospoortvliet, http://en.opensuse.org/Buy_openSUSE 13:40:41 I know, frustrating 13:40:47 Yes.. 13:40:48 well, we can't spend the time today discussing what *should* be done about those issues. Our focus today is how to effectively respond to questioners without making them run elsewhere :-) 13:40:49 where is the problem manugupt there exist a thing call 1-Click collection at suse-community, there u can a installer for all codecs and stuff 13:40:53 The boxed version of openSUSE may be the best choice. You will get complete user manual, install DVD biarch media for just plug in your DVD drive and the software on the DVD recognizes automatically x86 and x86 64-bit systems. All of this comes with 90 days of end-user installation support via email or phone. The openSUSE 11.3 Box is delivered with balsam extensions - a second bootable openSUSE Live DVD. This DVD includes a spe 13:40:53 cial plasma-netbook image giving you an outlook of the next generation of netbook interfaces 13:41:22 terrorpup: so what is your point? no codecs there :D 13:41:44 just german badly translated to english :D 13:41:44 * javier__ is wondering if having a server in Europe would change the situation 13:41:48 javier__: yes it would 13:41:51 They use to point out that it had the media codecs 13:41:53 !mp3 @ jospoortvliet 13:41:53 jospoortvliet: For multimedia and other restricted format (MP3,Encrypted DVD, DiVX,etc) issues, see http://opensuse-community.org/Restricted_Formats 13:41:55 and maybe in the future it will be possible 13:41:55 gnokii, Actually it still misses a few things. But even so, if the newcomer doesn't know about it, how does the newcomer know to go to oS-C? 13:42:09 what is missed there? 13:42:17 suseROCKs: we can tell the ambassadors to help users go there, yes 13:42:19 jospoortvliet: I doubt a server in Europe would help - it's the question who owns it. 13:42:21 So can this be cited as illegal too 13:42:22 at least I think so 13:42:24 AJaeger: sure 13:42:30 but that can change with a foundation in Europe :D 13:42:32 AJaeger: +1 13:42:39 jospoortvliet: :D 13:42:53 if the foundation would be EU based, and own the server - problem solved... it's how packman works, right? 13:43:22 jospoortvliet, yes 13:43:24 and no 13:44:20 to make it happen in a more fluid way, you'd have to disengage openSUSE completely (trademark-wise) from the US-based company and let the Foundation own it. 13:44:34 jospoortvliet one day you may give me more explanations about the server issue,I have something in my mind about that 13:44:37 Otherwise, we're dong just the same thing we're doing now and still not really easily able to connect the dots for the user. 13:45:09 manugupt1: For ppl that are beginning I refer them to this link because it example how to use up most things 13:45:10 http://opensuse-guide.org/acquisition.php 13:45:13 warlordfff: money geeko done for the A4 and A3 page size 13:45:19 annnnyway... as I said moments ago... the discussion here is about the spin, not the solution. :-) 13:45:27 take a look at piratepad 13:45:37 suseROCKs: maybe u recognized it not but the trademark would be in future not owned directly from a US company 13:45:38 CarlosRibeiro greta, can you e-mail them to me or something? 13:46:32 Under set up is how to do Media Codecs, Browser Plugins, 3D Drivers and Wireless. 13:47:09 gnokii, the openSUSE trademark status is still up in the air. We, the Board, have been desiring to have the Foundation own the trademark. If we can do that, then whoever is company sponsor won't be an issue anymore. 13:48:38 suseROCKs we must put it down and see that 13:48:51 as a community 13:49:08 see what we want to do with it 13:49:26 suseROCKs: we the board doesnt count I sid that before u are not the owner of the trademark 13:49:31 warlordfff, Not that easy. Novell isn't willing to do that. Maybe attachmate will be. But tooo early to say now. 13:50:02 suseROCKs I understand but the sooner the better is my opinion 13:50:24 gnokii, no we are not the owner of the trademark and I have told you that. We are the caretakers of the openSUSE trademark, yes. That is fact. Novell has entrusted the Board to ensure proper trademark usage and approvals. 13:50:58 SUSE would be a stand alone company after Attachmate have bought Novell so the trademark for SUSE and openSUSE is in europe then 13:51:05 Novell's lawyers turn over every openSUSE Trademark usage request directly to us for review. 13:51:26 warlordfff: done! 13:51:43 CarlosRibeiro, Can you add that to artwork Portal 13:51:44 a standalone company with offices in Europe can still have its US Based headquarters. That happens frequently out there. 13:51:44 take a lookk at your mail box 13:52:11 manugupt1: sure 13:52:20 Thanks a lot.. 13:53:16 CarlosRibeiro they are blank 13:53:18 ok I need to take a break... walk around a bit and freshen up a shower before its time to get back to the tasks at hand 13:53:24 for some reason 13:53:26 warlordfff, CarlosRibeiro great job today! 13:53:28 would say there is a difference between own a trademark and are responsible for give using rights for it 13:54:17 I worked with a lot of company based out of Europe, like Sophos 13:54:40 suseROCKs thanks 13:55:15 CarlosRibeiro something might went wrong 13:55:32 thanks a lot suseROCKs 13:57:47 right now I'm calling to the linux magazine editor to see if is possible to have publish jos interview about Ambassador Program :D I believe jos has already answer the questionary :D 13:58:08 guys, I will check back later off to work. 13:58:29 terrorpup: thanks a lot for your help 13:58:55 get some time and be here before this nice day ends :D 14:00:48 will do 14:03:12 guys I need a break too, get some food - and I didn't even do much... still catching up to mail and other things meh 14:03:22 anyway, CarlosRibeiro will go after your interview thing now 14:03:25 after food that is 14:03:26 I need one too 14:03:27 hehe 14:04:19 CarlosRibeiro I will be out for a while,ok? 14:04:34 no problem mate 14:05:02 I will be here until you bake warlordfff, then will be my turn to have lunch :D 14:05:13 until you back 14:05:50 hehe 14:06:20 Bye... everyone.. have a nice day.. 14:06:25 or night ;) 14:06:30 same to you manugupt1 14:19:06 back 14:20:18 cool beans, warlordfff could I give a break for my launch? 14:20:30 to re-energize myself 14:20:57 of course man 14:21:04 :D 14:21:17 see you all in about 45 minutes 14:44:00 yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeha 14:44:19 ? 14:48:35 lol 14:49:48 found the right idea for "flexibility" 14:50:35 swiss army knife 14:52:03 :) 14:52:25 ooh izabel told me there would be a setup of classmate pc in brazil but she didnt tell that mandriva runs on them 15:44:19 welcome zoumpis 15:44:43 hello to everybody 15:44:47 how from here my honey? ;-) 15:45:35 go to work Slave ssssstssssss 15:45:42 oups 15:45:48 i read the announcement about the Collaboration day! 15:45:57 we are public ;D 15:46:26 yes i know that! 15:46:35 sales today in here 15:46:40 I forgot it 15:46:46 hahaha 15:47:48 got to make some cofee 15:47:52 brb 15:47:57 repos with half price 15:48:55 terrorpup, ping 15:50:56 suseROCKs you are back? 15:51:44 do you ever Sleep? 15:52:34 Yes I do. 15:52:39 I'm sleeping right now.

21:44:51 also we can control versions of images created at sutio using directory polices, like NDS, active directry,...? 21:45:09 CarlosRibeiro, you should try to make one ;) 21:49:20 nother wiki page in need of love http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:KIWI/News 21:49:28 wikis drive me nuts 21:52:39 has anyone considered dropping the hyphens out of that LI-F-E acronym? 21:52:53 let's supose that we need to create a infra-structure to support on-demand virtual machines and images workloads, but we have several and rotative kinds of hardware. Then we need to have a datacenter infrastructure to support create, destroy and sync images, vms, and physicall machines without interruption. we can do all this using studio? also I remember that is a 24 hours OEM computer company that have 3 turns and each turn have a dif 21:52:57 reminds me of writing SuSe 21:52:59 SUse 21:53:06 SusE 21:53:13 it was SuSE ;9 21:53:18 SuSE GmbH 21:53:21 yes but it took me forever 21:53:26 I didn't know the u was und 21:53:38 nouns in German are always capitalized 21:53:45 that's why it was SuSE ;) 21:53:54 and who knows where the dots are in delicious 21:53:57 all nouns except the u from 'und' (and) 21:53:58 the bookmarking tool 21:54:06 System und Software Entwicklung? 21:54:12 my point being the odd spelling and punctuation are a Pain In The A.... 21:54:31 most people I know can't even use an apostrophe correctly. 21:54:47 actually in Linux Magazine I think I saw OpenSUSE a lot. 21:54:59 (might have been a different publication...) 21:55:03 OpenSuse is worse 21:55:03 this week. 21:55:39 there's a German guy who writes tons of articles about openSUSE ... and still misspells it tons of times ;( 21:56:01 lol 21:56:38 I can never remember del.ici.ous 21:56:41 I always just google it 21:56:56 but a software writer ought to get it right 21:57:06 (well I guess we forgive the Old School guys huh?) 21:58:41 helen_au: yes, but most part of times this happen because the text editors they are using sometimes are already setup to not allow openSUSE in the beginning of lines, phrases, and automatically chances for OpenSUSE. and us that have nothing with that suffer the consequences 21:59:02 yes auto formatting is very frustrating 21:59:19 helen_au: we need to do something smart to fix this problem 21:59:24 my sister is a chemist, she gets so mad with Microsoft Office 22:00:04 fixing text editors? 22:00:11 oh jesus chirst 22:00:21 lol 22:00:31 yes I'm thinking about a kind f viral twitter message 22:00:42 how to actually spell openSUSE 22:01:00 is it that big an issue actually? do most people get it right? 22:01:06 zoumpis: hi 22:01:09 hi helen_au 22:01:23 I think maybe because it looks like fancy spelling small/caps just for a logo, you know - for the design part 22:01:33 not that it is actually spelled that way in writing. 22:01:39 jospoortvliet, hiya! 22:01:59 "Save the openSUSE!" Have you any doubt that if the community manger with all ambassadors starts to twit and re-twit this . will bring a nice interesting on people 22:02:26 they might think we're worried that Attachmate is going to destroy us 22:02:31 helen_au: about LI-F-E - please propose that on project I support the idea to just call it LIFE... 22:02:32 not about spelling 22:02:45 and after 3 weeks maybe we can publish a article as answer for that question 22:02:45 oh ok on project mailing list 22:03:24 "yes we spell it openSUSE.... more than just a logo" 22:07:41 I've just seen you writing your email on piratepad and this remind of one thing.. once I wrote my email on a piece of paper but I used the < > symbols and he asked if they were part of my email address 22:08:00 lol 22:08:01 he=a guy 22:08:16 yes it's amazing isn't it 22:08:20 yes 22:08:44 a friend just gave me her old computer.. "it's really fast"... well it was, years ago. 256meg ram! 22:09:29 hehe 22:09:42 I was just thinking about who ambassadors are talking to 22:09:48 just looking to attract new users? 22:10:50 the 'community' word always concerns me a little 22:13:39 and there I go saying 'community' myself.... 22:15:10 helen_au: maybe we could make a campaign to tell people how to spell it right ;) 22:15:14 hehe 22:15:56 :P 22:17:18 time for cello lesson... bye for now 22:17:27 ah nice :) 22:17:29 bye 22:17:32 As everything good goes faster than the normal, we are getting closer to the end and last hour of our meeting.
