[17:39:34]
[17:39:44] <SmilyBorg> hi nuvolari
[17:40:40] <maiatoday> I have no comments on the minutes,.
[17:40:46] <nuvolari> in the meantime, was there any new IRC-faces around this month?
[17:40:56] <Kilos> ya
[17:41:14] <Kilos> but none here now
[17:42:10] <nuvolari> ok, done scanning, I don't have any comments either
[17:42:20] <nuvolari> I think we are doing good generally speaking
[17:43:47] <nuvolari> I'll give it a minute or 2 more
[17:45:17] <Cantide> i missed the last meeting :'(
[17:45:38] <nuvolari> aw :-/ Well, you can always make up tonight Cantide :)
[17:45:43] <Cantide> but after scanning it, there is nothing from it that i wish to discuss :p
[17:45:49] <Cantide> nuvolari, I hope i can :)
[17:45:55] <nuvolari> moving on...
[17:46:11] <nuvolari> Maaz: topic Administrativia and Announcements
[17:46:11] <Maaz> Current Topic: Administrativia and Announcements
[17:46:57] <nuvolari> I think the most important announcement is tomorrows LoCo Re-Approval meeting
[17:47:12] <nuvolari> but I added it as an item under events
[17:47:22] <magespawn> Where and when is the meeting taking place?
[17:47:23] <nuvolari> so we might keep it off until then
[17:47:28] <magespawn> okay
[17:48:50] <nuvolari> trying to find the exact channel quick
[17:49:39] <Kilos> we meet here around 19.30 and join there before 20.00
[17:50:05] <Cantide> when, tomorrow?
[17:50:11] <Kilos> ya
[17:50:17] <Cantide> cool, i should be around
[17:50:21] <Kilos> maiatoday, channel for reapp?
[17:50:29] <Kilos> ubuntu-meeting?
[17:50:30] <superfly> No, it is 20:00 UTC, which makes it 22:00 for us
[17:50:32] <superfly> IIRC
[17:50:35] <maiatoday> #ubuntu-meeting I think
[17:50:45] <Kilos> oh my
[17:50:46] <Cantide> ouch, that's after my bedtime :p
[17:50:47] * inetpro stepping into the room
[17:50:47] <inetpro> Maaz: I am Gustav H Meyer
[17:50:47] <Maaz> inetpro: Done
[17:50:49] <nuvolari> "Tuesday 18th December 2012, 20:00 UTC in #ubuntu-meeting on irc.freenode.net. I have put us on the agenda."
[17:50:49] <maiatoday> Yes 22:00
[17:50:53] <inetpro> sorry for being late
[17:50:53] <nuvolari> welcome inetpro
[17:51:02] <inetpro> again
[17:51:05] <nuvolari> quoted maiatoday there
[17:51:08] <Kilos> wb inetpro
[17:51:18] <maiatoday> My cut and paste us slow I am on the tablet
[17:51:28] <Kilos> ty superfly
[17:51:40] <nuvolari> who's running the mailing list?
[17:51:48] <nuvolari> or has access to the info
[17:51:48] <Kilos> peeps can take an early nap and come back for the meeting
[17:52:00] <nuvolari> that I don't know, and we need some of that numbers for the stats
[17:52:30] <maiatoday> I will work on the wiki page tomorrow morning some more
[17:52:42] <maiatoday> I will add the photos I collected
[17:53:06] <nuvolari> maiatoday: I took a look at the wiki page and I think it looks good, thanks!
[17:53:39] <nuvolari> The only section bugging me is the stats section, it's kind of repeating the online activities section, not?
[17:53:56] <maiatoday> It needs a few touch ups and then I think it should be ok
[17:53:59] <inetpro> nuvolari: as far as I am aware drubin_ still has access to the mailing list details
[17:54:28] <maiatoday> We had a stats section last time but we are missing something stats
[17:54:50] <nuvolari> inetpro: thanks, I'll mail him to find out about that
[17:54:52] <maiatoday> Last time we had graphs of irc activity
[17:55:09] <nuvolari> Maaz: agreed nuvolari to find out about mailing list stats from drubin_
[17:55:09] <Maaz> Agreed: nuvolari to find out about mailing list stats from drubin_
[17:55:25] <maiatoday> If we don't have useful stats by tomorrow we could take that section out
[17:55:28] <inetpro> maiatoday: we tried getting some irc stats
[17:55:36] <maiatoday> Ok
[17:56:04] <inetpro> sadly the page which gave stats last time around stopped doing it some time I think in 2010 or 2011
[17:56:30] <nuvolari> meh :-/
[17:56:32] <maiatoday> I don't think it's that serious if we don't have stats
[17:56:51] <Cantide> should someone be tasked with running a bot that collects stats?
[17:56:56] <nuvolari> yeah, they can take our word for it :P we were quite active this year
[17:57:02] <inetpro> superfly and myself tried something but it ended up not being so simple as expected
[17:57:07] <mazal> I think the most important one is the number of active members in the community
[17:57:18] <inetpro> problem is to find the time
[17:57:21] <maiatoday> If the wiki page is pretty decent and a fair amount of us go to the meeting we should be ok
[17:57:29] <superfly> I have something that is workable (And I'm working on at the moment)
[17:57:40] <maiatoday> Also once I add the slide show it will help too
[17:57:51] <nuvolari> ooh :> slides
[17:57:53] <superfly> it is not 100% accurate, but it should be good enough to give people a feel for how active the channel is on average
[17:58:08] <maiatoday> That's fine
[17:58:13] <inetpro> superfly: good news!
[17:58:14] <magespawn> okay ?
[17:58:18] <nuvolari> thank you superfly, greatly appreciated!
[17:58:21] <inetpro> thanks for your efforts
[17:58:28] <maiatoday> Just a
[17:58:34] <nuvolari> a
[17:58:41] <inetpro> a?
[17:58:46] <nuvolari> a!

[18:05:30] <inetpro> nuvolari: in that case I just want us to focus for a minute on our website, that is if superfly is ready to discuss it
[18:05:51] <superfly> I guess
[18:05:52] <inetpro> perhaps we can move the item to our next meeting
[18:05:54] <superfly> what's up?
[18:05:57] <nuvolari> ok right, we can do that
[18:06:12] <inetpro> superfly: we where discussing having just a plain static site
[18:06:16] <nuvolari> inetpro: your decision
[18:06:20] <inetpro> were*
[18:06:59] <inetpro> so the meeting has to decide whether we keep things as is or whether we simplify it
[18:07:16] <smile> Kilos: thanks I'll not disturb your meeting
[18:07:30] <inetpro> not a lot of things that are changing on the website at the moment

[18:09:18] <smile> sorry for the "flood"
[18:09:20] <nuvolari> I don't have any comments on the website
[18:09:25] <smile> I do have some :)
[18:09:25] <Cantide> what website are we discussing? link?
[18:09:28] <nuvolari> anyone want to add something?
[18:09:34] <smile> static is always faster :)
[18:09:36] <nuvolari> I think to simplify it would help ya
[18:09:36] <inetpro> http://ubuntu-za.org/
[18:09:39] <smile> but more difficult to edit :|
[18:09:39] <magespawn> what is the benefit of static inetpro?
[18:09:41] <Cantide> aah, of course
[18:09:44] <nuvolari> but it's good as is, not?
[18:10:08] <inetpro> superfly: you are hosting?
[18:10:10] <smile> yeah, some design tweaks maybe :)
[18:10:43] <mazal> I had an idea for the website
[18:11:26] <inetpro> mazal: an idea?
[18:11:36] <mazal> How about a little "bio" area where members can just give their short history of how they started with ubuntu and their experiences etc
[18:11:56] <inetpro> mazal: we can have that on the ubuntu wiki
[18:12:02] <superfly> mazal: the problem with the web site is that no one has the time to maintain it.
[18:12:07] <superfly> inetpro: no, CLUG hosts it
[18:12:12] <inetpro> ahh
[18:12:18] * inetpro remembers now
[18:12:26] <magespawn> superfly maybe a team to do it?
[18:12:30] <magespawn> or group
[18:12:39] <superfly> magespawn: doesn't work, already did that
[18:12:48] <magespawn> i can do basic stuff
[18:12:49] <smile> superfly: what is CLUG? :)
[18:12:53] <smile> a hosting company?
[18:12:53] <magespawn> oh okay
[18:12:59] <superfly> Maaz: google for CLUG
[18:12:59] <Maaz> superfly: "Urban Dictionary: clug" http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=clug :: "Clug" http://wiki.clug.org.za/wiki/Main_Page :: "CLUG | All Linux, All the Time" http://www.clug.org/ :: "Edward Clug - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Clug :: "Welcome to Canberra Linux Users Group" http://clug.org.au/ :: "CLUG Home | Canberra LEGO® User Group - Adult LEGO Fans ..." http://www.clug.com.au/ :: "Clemson Linux Users Group - Another Nifty Geeklog Site" http://clemsonlinux.org/ :: "Le sacre du printemps by Edward Clug with Maribor Ballet - YouTube" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-agaQbRtHo
[18:13:12] <nuvolari> lol
[18:13:21] <magespawn> the second one smile
[18:13:26] * inetpro love Lego
[18:13:34] <inetpro> loves*
[18:13:39] <smile> okay, cool! :)
[18:14:08] <SmilyBorg> I would start a lego user group but got too many things on my plate as it is
[18:14:10] <magespawn> superfly as long as the changes are not too hectic i should be able to manage it
[18:14:19] <nuvolari> Can we agree that this will be discussed in more detail?
[18:14:26] <magespawn> superfly in drupal?
[18:14:35] <superfly> magespawn: yes
[18:14:48] <magespawn> would be a good learning curve
[18:15:27] <superfly> *IF* we continue with Drupal, we will also need to upgrade to D7
[18:16:28] <inetpro> but we need more than just one person
[18:16:34] <magespawn> ahh well i am fairly easy
[18:16:50] <nuvolari> ok, we might need to move on if we wish to cover everything in time. We can add this to the following meeting's agenda too?
[18:16:53] <Cantide> I have some experience with PHP
[18:16:59] <Cantide> I may lend a hand when i have time
[18:17:21] <inetpro> ok superfly, do we agree to keep as is and try get more people involved?
[18:17:35] <magespawn> +1
[18:17:36] <inetpro> then we discuss again at next meeting?
[18:17:44] <nuvolari> +1
[18:17:47] <superfly> we can do that
[18:18:03] <superfly> I'd like us to look at the purpose of the web site
[18:18:04] <inetpro> +1
[18:18:12] <superfly> Cantide: learn some Python
[18:18:22] * Cantide dies
[18:18:26] <superfly> Cantide: leave PHP for the script kiddies and the wannabes
[18:18:29] <Kilos> hehe
[18:18:38] <inetpro> nuvolari: next topic?
[18:18:52] <Cantide> Pythons are dangerous >_>
[18:18:52] <nuvolari> Maaz: agreed Discuss future of the website by involving more help and re-thinking the purpose of the website.
[18:18:52] <Maaz> Agreed: Discuss future of the website by involving more help and re-thinking the purpose of the website
[18:19:15] <nuvolari> Maaz: topic Ubuntu+1 status and feedback
[18:19:15] <Maaz> Current Topic: Ubuntu+1 status and feedback
[18:19:19] <superfly> inetpro or magespawn: are you going to run with that?
[18:20:01] <inetpro> superfly: I will follow up again in the evenings, and will try help where I can
[18:20:03] * superfly has family to deal with now
[18:20:09] <smile> superfly: :(
[18:20:28] <magespawn> with the website superfly?
[18:20:35] <superfly> magespawn: yes
[18:20:41] <nuvolari> i've seen some more complains this last couple of weeks on the mailing list on the latest ubuntu release
[18:21:00] * inetpro will discuss with magespawn and others and when superfly has time he will chime in
[18:21:00] <magespawn> sure i can commit sometime to it
[18:21:01] <nuvolari> I don't know how much of that is caused by user error though :P
[18:21:24] <superfly> nuvolari: in most cases, user error I think
[18:21:53] <superfly> also, people thinking that a reinstall will fix stuff when 99% of cases it won't
[18:21:59] <nuvolari> As for 12.10, I'm still running 12.04 so I can't comment. However, I did upgrade my brother's netbook to have an ubuntu dualboot with 12.10
[18:22:09] <Cantide> nuvolari, I had trouble and went back to 12.04; but then again, i did an upgrade and not a clean install, and on top of that i had some hardware trouble at the same time, so I can't make a fair judgement
[18:22:23] <mazal> I did use 12.10 and it was very buggy and very slow
[18:22:40] <smile> mazal: I have the same experience.
[18:23:01] <nuvolari> In general it seems that we have mixed experiences, both great and less great
[18:23:10] <Cantide> all in all, i felt that webapps were not as useful as i thought they'd be, and there wasn't much else new there that would bring me back to 12.10 instead of just waiting for the next version
[18:23:24] * nlsthzn pops in and says, "alo"
[18:23:27] <smile> yeah.. I expected the alpha releases/beta releases to be buggy (they were)
[18:23:29] <nuvolari> hi nlsthzn
[18:23:33] <Kilos> hi nlsthzn
[18:23:34] <smile> but the stable releases were still buggy
[18:23:40] <smile> which is a shame
[18:23:43] <Cantide> hey nlsthzn :)
[18:23:48] <maiatoday> My web apps crash alot
[18:23:50] <Kilos> tell maaz who you are nlsthzn
[18:23:58] <nlsthzn> ah meeting still ongoing
[18:24:03] <Kilos> yip
[18:24:06] <nlsthzn> Maaz: my name is Neil Oosthuizen
[18:24:06] <Maaz> nlsthzn: One learns a new thing every day
[18:24:14] <Kilos> lol i am
[18:24:14] <nuvolari> well, I guess you can't blame them that much, as the LTS versions will be around much longer now
[18:24:16] <Cantide> my web apps used a lot of memory and weren't really helpful because i had to have the web pages open anyway -.-v
[18:24:19] <inetpro> nlsthzn: please sign the register
[18:24:19] <inetpro> ai
[18:24:30] <nlsthzn> did I do it wrong again
[18:24:31] <SmilyBorg> the llvmpipe thing has made a world of difference to me, but had a nasty issue in lightdm the other day that wouldnt let me change between windoww managers/desktop environments
[18:24:36] <nuvolari> I suspect they will not focus on it to have the releaces in between spotless
[18:24:40] <Kilos> nlsthzn, maaz i am
[18:24:43] * inetpro 's connection is lagging
[18:24:47] <nlsthzn> Maaz: I am Neil Oosthuizen
[18:24:47] <Maaz> nlsthzn: Sure
[18:24:53] <nlsthzn> thanks uncle Kilos
[18:24:57] <Kilos> yw
[18:25:26] * nuvolari googles llvmpipe
[18:25:55] <Cantide> nuvolari, all releases should be spotless - what if it's a new users first experience with Ubuntu
[18:26:09] <mazal> I agree with Cantide
[18:26:22] <SmilyBorg> true
[18:26:26] <mazal> What's the point of having a release every 6 months , but it feels like a beta
[18:26:29] <nuvolari> I guess you're right :-/
[18:26:38] <tumbleweed> we aim to have all releases be high quality
[18:26:39] <mazal> Then rather release once a year a proper stable one
[18:26:52] <tumbleweed> LTS releases get special polish because they have to be supported for longer
[18:27:02] <tumbleweed> but all releases should be fit for use
[18:27:16] <magespawn> i usually stay on the lts
[18:27:22] <mazal> I feel they don't give themselves enough time on each release
[18:27:23] <magespawn> LTS
[18:27:41] <nuvolari> I'm one of the lucky ones, I did not have many issues lately
[18:27:44] <Cantide> i usually skip a release
[18:28:02] <nuvolari> ok, time is chasing us :-/
[18:28:08] <Cantide> i had a lot of freezing on 12.10, but i'm not sure if that was caused by faulty hardware or not
[18:28:19] <tumbleweed> I don't think more time would help. More time spent on polish rather than features, wouldl, though
[18:28:35] <Cantide> tumbleweed, agreed
[18:28:39] <Cantide> nuvolari, yes :/
[18:28:44] * nlsthzn wonders what the topic is?
