superfly: syn
[18:40:15]
<chesedo>
i have not taken another look at the ubuntu edu project since exams
[18:40:45]
<superfly>
Right, so I'm on the other side of the world now, and it makes it difficult to co-ordinate with people, so I'm looking for volunteers to take over the website.
[18:40:49]
<chesedo>
nor know of any Ubuntu-for-Hope updates
[18:41:11]
<chesedo>
superfly: were is it currently at?
[18:41:19]
<chesedo>
hardware wise?
[18:41:36]
<inetpro>
I don't think there's a need to rush into moving the site
[18:42:13]
<inetpro>
unless someone is willing to host and maintain it for us for free
[18:42:34]
<Kilos>
take over as in maintain or move superfly
[18:42:46]
<chesedo>
at least it is static - so light weight...
[18:43:52]
<superfly>
Kilos: maintain it
[18:44:02]
<Kilos>
there you go inetpro
[18:44:07]
<Kilos>
ty superfly
[18:44:20]
<chesedo>
superfly: that would be just the bazaar branch right?
[18:44:39]
<superfly>
chesedo: it's currently hosted on a box at FrogFoot because it's the same box that hosts the CLUG website. tumbleweed organised it all.
[18:45:45]
<chesedo>
superfly: what does maintain currently involve?
[18:45:55]
<superfly>
chesedo: essentially yes. but sorting out hosting would probably also be good (I don't mind hosting it on a VPS of mine), and getting some sort of "control" over the domain name itself (Canonical I think owns the domain name and controls the DNS, so we'd need to talk to them if we move the hosting)
[18:45:58]
<chesedo>
copying over changes to the box?
[18:46:13]
<superfly>
chesedo: checking merge proposals on LP, deploying to the box
[18:46:28]
<superfly>
making sure information on the site is up to date, etc
[18:46:42]
<chesedo>
paddatrapper and inetpro: you game?
[18:46:50]
<paddatrapper>
can that deploy not be automated using a webhook to something?
[18:46:54]
* chesedo
can be one of the volunteers too
[18:46:55]
<paddatrapper>
chesedo: Not currently, sorry
[18:47:32]
<chesedo>
paddatrapper: np
[18:47:43]
<inetpro>
chesedo: between you and me I'm sure we can handle it
[18:47:59]
<chesedo>
superfly: pro and i are it :D
[18:48:11]
<Kilos>
cool
[18:48:40]
<Kilos>
ty superfly for looking after us for so long
[18:48:53]
<chesedo>
yip, ty superfly
[18:49:24]
<superfly>
I'm happy to still be around, I just don't have the time to spend on the site (and I'm in the wrong timezone)
[18:50:27]
