[11:02] <brobostigon> good morning everyone,
[11:10] <markjones> Morming :)
[11:11] <markjones> I might start hacking our Wiki pages, making it more up to date and meaningful
[11:11] <brobostigon> morning markjones :)
[11:11] <brobostigon> markjones: if you have the url, i lost some of my bookmarks a few weeks ago.
[11:12] <markjones> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WelshTeam
[11:12] <brobostigon> yhank you.
[11:12] <brobostigon> thank you.
[11:13] <markjones> cgriff: what's this 'official' membership we have?
[11:32] <markjones> major edit of the wiki page done
[11:33] <markjones> I'm going to tidy it up
[11:33] <brobostigon> ok
[11:35] <markjones> If you want to brobostigon, I've just created Welshteam/Events
[11:35] <markjones> could you fill it up? :P
[11:36] <markjones> we don't need things like meetings, just events such as Global Jam, Hacking Language etc
[11:36] <brobostigon> let me check back in my diary.
[11:44] <markjones> and i'm at it again... all our old news (from 2010 and 2009) is on WelshTeam/News
[11:44] <markjones> :P
[11:48] <brobostigon> weird, as soon i try and reload the wiki page, chromium just dies.
[11:48] <markjones> i'm doing a lot of edits, that's why :P
[11:49] <brobostigon> ok.
[12:23] <markjones> right
[12:23] <markjones> i've brought it up to date
[12:23] <brobostigon> :)
[12:23] <markjones> I need to clarify things with cgriff and dariusH_ now
[12:24] <brobostigon> yes.
[12:24] <brobostigon> let me look also.
[12:24] <markjones> (Darius is listed as Team Contact, need to check if he still wants to do it)
[12:24] <brobostigon> yes
[12:25] <brobostigon> in practicality, there is not many people that are candidates.
[12:25] <brobostigon> if he doesnt.
[12:26] <markjones> it'll be lestid as a vacancy
[12:26] <markjones> *listed
[12:26] <brobostigon> yes
[12:26] <brobostigon> ok.
[12:27] <brobostigon> and i cant be, having an english, welsh team contact, that lives in england, isnt really the best of ideas.
[12:28] <brobostigon> half english/half welsh*
[12:29] <markjones> I'm going to be creating a few other roles
[12:29] <markjones> there might be something you can do :)
[12:29] <brobostigon> maybe, if i am feeling better, and my concentration etc, is back to normal.
[12:46] <markjones> ok
[12:47] <markjones> sorry, doing more changes to the wiki :P
[12:47] <brobostigon> ok,
[13:26] <markjones> i've updated the main pages now
[13:27] <markjones> they look pretty decent and up to date
[13:30] <markjones> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WelshTeam
[13:30] <markjones> the events page has been populated too
[13:32] <brobostigon> :)
[13:32]  * brobostigon looks.
[13:34] <brobostigon> markjones: maybe we could use google+ hangout or similer for the meeting? could it allow for document sharing etc?
[13:35] <markjones> yes, but we need to keep minutes
[13:35] <markjones> and not everyone uses Google+
[13:35] <brobostigon> true, good point.
[13:50] <markjones> hey Mr__T
[13:54] <Mr__T> mornin
[13:54] <Mr__T> er
[13:54] <Mr__T> yeah
[13:55] <Mr__T> sleep debt: repaid
[13:55] <brobostigon> afternoongs Mr__T
[13:55] <brobostigon> afternoonings*
[13:56] <Mr__T> yoyo
[13:56] <brobostigon> Mr__T: markjones just updated https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WelshTeam, our wiki page.
[13:57] <Mr__T> ah neis
[13:58] <markjones> yeah
[13:58] <markjones> they wre all out of date
[13:59] <brobostigon> i just read an interesting statistic, of all people of working age, 85% of those, diagnosed with aspergers are long term unemployed.
[14:00] <Mr__T> :/
[14:01] <brobostigon> the outlook isnt good for me then.
[14:01] <Mr__T> the trick is to make a job out of your hobbies/interests
[14:02] <Mr__T> even if you have to go self employed
[14:02] <markjones> itok
[14:02] <markjones> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimCymraeg is up to date too
[14:03] <brobostigon> Mr__T: true point, and that is what i have tried to do, and has been a filiure.
[14:03] <Mr__T> :/
[14:04] <Mr__T> the other trick is to move somewhere nice and let the gov worry about you instead
[14:04] <Mr__T> change is as good as a rest and all that
[14:04] <brobostigon> Mr__T: i live somewhere nice, yes.
[14:04] <Mr__T> nono
[14:04] <Mr__T> has to be somewhere else
[14:04] <Mr__T> there isn't working...
[14:05] <markjones> changes have been made to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WelshTeam, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WelshTeam/Events, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimCymraeg and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WelshTeam/HackingLanguage
[14:05] <brobostigon> Mr__T: change is not good, i have lived where i am now, for muist be 6 years, and i am still not proper used to, and or comfortable.
[14:05] <markjones> yeah, it's hard for people with AS
[14:05] <Mr__T> brobostigon, do you think you ever will at the rate?
[14:05] <markjones> (it's hard for anyone with a disability actually)
[14:06] <Mr__T> aye
[14:06] <brobostigon> Mr__T: it is simply a fact of who i am, and the person i am, it cannot be avoided.
[14:06] <markjones> Hmm
[14:06] <markjones> should I create a Twitter account?
[14:06] <Mr__T> I don't think you have anything to lose
[14:06] <markjones> (for the LoCo)
[14:06] <Mr__T> re-phrase that so it doesn't sound insulting
[14:07] <Mr__T> btw, don't suppose anyone has a server I could have a shell on for an  IRC bouncer?
[14:07] <brobostigon> Mr__T: last time i moved, it was bad enough, because iof the change, i tried to harm myself, if you see what i mean, about 6 months later.
[14:08] <Mr__T> but doesn't that also add weight to the argument that that was not the right place for you?
[14:09] <markjones> Mr__T: i do
[14:09] <brobostigon> Mr__T: that was early when i moved here, upto now, certain the klast year or so, it has been mostly stable, so it is mostly the right place.
[14:09] <markjones> but it's being updated over the next 48 hours
[14:09] <brobostigon> Mr__T: it is the initial move and change which is the issue.
[14:09] <markjones> (I have a VPS running Ubuntu)
[14:09] <Mr__T> I see
[14:09] <Mr__T> markjones, bingo :D
[14:09]  * brobostigon also has a vps running debian.
[14:09] <Mr__T> I used to have a shell on anubis til Narc kicked us off :/
[14:10] <markjones> yeah, i did too
[14:10] <Mr__T> thought you did
[14:10] <markjones> :P
[14:10] <brobostigon> i am on bitfolk now.
[14:10] <markjones> i'm with Zerneboj

[14:11] <markjones> heh, no need for bribery

[14:11] <Mr__T> my phone is flat and I haven't got a microusb cable
[14:11] <Mr__T> so far enjoying the peace
[14:11] <markjones> sucks
[14:12] <Mr__T> left a friend's place in a hurry, gave up searching for it
[14:12] <Mr__T> figured my dad's camera cable might fit it,  it didn't
[14:12] <markjones> Mr__T: this is the presentation (needs translating) I'm doing for Hacio'r Iaith: https://docs.google.com/present/edit?id=0ASuIGA3SepQMZGRtdno2ODJfMTc2ZnZ2OWQzdng

[14:28] <markjones> ugh, I hate it when people embed graphics into their background...
