| === Ima_bot is now known as Berg | |
| [07:26] <Berg> The server at planet.ubuntu.org.au is taking too long to respond. | |
| [07:42] <head_victim> Berg: thanks for that, I'm just actually trying to track down who looks after the dns. I thought it was one person but they've referred me to another | |
| [07:43] <Berg> yeah I was sniffing about the web site i cant use the forum either my user name dont work but thats another matter | |
| [07:43] <Berg> it can wait | |
| [08:00] <head_victim> Berg: there's always the mailing list ;) | |
| [08:01] <Berg> yes | |
| [08:01] <Berg> I have been using Ubuntu for a good many years now I just thought i might start frequenting the forums | |
| [08:04] <sagaci> forums, irc, the wiki and loco.ubuntu.com/team/ubuntu-au | |
| [08:04] <sagaci> teams* | |
| === nande is now known as nandemonai | |
| [09:50] <sagaci> head_victim: ping | |
| [09:55] <head_victim> sagaci: pong | |
| [09:58] <Berg> you could have a bot do that for you save typing | |
| [09:58] <head_victim> Berg: it's a common way of seeing if someone is at their keyboard, normally sagaci would have responded and asked a question or something by now :) | |
| [09:58] <sagaci> I don't know if you've been watching -translators but that's a glitch at the moment to do with the templates page not updating | |
| [09:58] <gorilla> Berg: Nah, response times would be too quick :-P | |
| [09:59] <sagaci> there's | |
| [09:59] <head_victim> sagaci: yeah I was looking at that | |
| [09:59] <sagaci> but the translations are still going through, which is the main thing | |
| [09:59] <head_victim> sagaci: I had noticed that there were some awesome changes in 12.04 though | |
| [09:59] <head_victim> The "color" management in system settings is now "colour" and stuff like that | |
| [09:59] <head_victim> It's looking good tbh | |
| [10:00] <sagaci> also tried getting someone from u-uk to check the xchat for changes and it seems that it hasn't gone through for them either | |
| [10:00] <head_victim> Ah so the xchat stuff was meant to but didn't? | |
| [10:00] <sagaci> because precise can't change locale at the moment, at least from the gui | |
| [10:00] <sagaci> well yeah, that work you did hasn't been caught in ubuntu, it seems | |
| [10:00] <head_victim> I thought it was only affecting packages translated in launchpad | |
| [10:01] <sagaci> yeah, different issue | |
| [10:01] <sagaci> I'm just talking about xchat translations in ubuntu, not to do with the translation glitch in lp | |
| [10:02] <head_victim> Ah no worries, I'd mashed the 2 issues | |
| [10:02] <sagaci> yeah so I'll file a bug about it soon | |
| [10:04] <head_victim> Berg: sagaci is our resident localisation expert :) He's the person that made the americanisms go away from enAU :D | |
| [10:04] <sagaci> I just hope the other 44% is in pretty good shape | |
| [10:04] <Berg> thats nice ..if i knew what your said it would be better | |
| [10:04] <Berg> :) | |
| [10:05] * Berg is a old guy and not good at geek stuff | |
| [10:05] <head_victim> Berg: when you set your locale to English (Australia) he's the bloke who's made most of it the right spelling. For example you will see "colour" instead of "color", etc. | |
| [10:05] <Berg> ha this is good | |
| [10:06] <head_victim> It's very good :) | |
| [10:06] <head_victim> He's leading the way when it comes to making sure they're all right, there are others contributing as well though. | |
| [10:07] <Berg> I found when i updated to 11.04 i had to change a lot of the defaults so i could have my old desktop | |
| [10:07] <sagaci> the next ubuntu global jam is around 2nd March, I doubt we'll be having a translation jam | |
| [10:08] <sagaci> 2nd-5th March 2012 | |
| [10:12] <Berg> It seems odd that one would have to translate an english OS into English | |
| [10:14] <head_victim> Berg: didn't make sense to me either. Apparently the standard is to use US "English" for everything worldwide though. | |
| [10:16] <sagaci> notice most en_US errors now, so it's rewarding to just check over the strings and change the ones we need to | |
| [10:16] <Berg> Well its good to see you raise the flag on correct spellings | |
| [10:18] <sagaci> and finding some typos along the way, such as authentification | |
| [10:27] <head_victim> Awwww 12.04 dpkg errors | |
| [10:28] <sagaci> wine won't install on 12.04 at the moment | |
| [10:29] <head_victim> I can't install anything | |
| [10:29] <head_victim> I tried to update it got half way through and now whinges about unmet dependencies no matter what I do it's still there | |
| [10:32] <sagaci> hmm that's weird | |
| [10:33] <sagaci> but not really for a dev release | |
| [10:33] <head_victim> Meh I'll wait a day or two and let the mirror catch up :D | |
| [10:37] <sagaci> i'll try my precise VM | |
| [10:41] <head_victim> I was actually going to try and play with skype-wrapper and see if it works as well as it's meant to | |
| [12:33] <sagaci> jaddi27: probably not a good idea to run your script on the site, due to a seemingly server glitch | |
| [12:34] <sagaci> thus stats not updating | |
| [22:30] <Terry_> morning all :) | |
| [22:32] <Terry_> \|||| | |
| [22:33] * Terry_ 's high five is left hanging | |
| [22:35] * Terry_ watches a tumble weed roll by | |
| [22:37] * Terry_ climbs back into his boat and disheartened, slowly rows away from the deserted island that is 'ubuntu-au' | |
| [23:39] <elky> we had 7 minutes? | |
| [23:45] <head_victim> At 830 on a Satuday morning at that | |
