| [18:01] <koolhead17> evening | |
| [18:01] <s-fox> How's everyone? | |
| [18:03] <MrChrisDruif> Pretty good s-fox, did you get that job? | |
| [18:03] * koolhead17 is alive and kicking :) | |
| [18:03] <MrChrisDruif> The one where the interview went well? | |
| [18:03] <s-fox> I have a second interview on the premises on Wednesday MrChrisDruif. I have been working on my OO PHP | |
| [18:12] <MrChrisDruif> Good going and good luck s-fox ^_^ | |
| [18:14] <MrChrisDruif> I'm applying to a job which combines working and learning. 28 hours of working and 10 hours of school in a week. | |
| [18:22] <koolhead17> MrChrisDruif: sounds interesting :) | |
| [21:28] <czajkowski> JanC: should we create a wiki page or an event on the LTP for FOSDEM ? | |
| [21:29] <JanC> I was going to create a wiki page, but... | |
| [21:33] <czajkowski> all the info we can add to the LTP | |
| [21:33] <czajkowski> just under your locoteam? | |
| [21:33] <czajkowski> thats if there are plans to go for dinner | |
| [21:34] <JanC> I'm working on a wiki page right now | |
| [21:34] <czajkowski> not sure what I'm doing the saturday night as there is a large group of us | |
| [21:34] <czajkowski> wiki is fine then | |
| [21:35] <JanC> Ward is going to look at dinner locations (maybe the Italian place from last year) | |
| [21:35] <czajkowski> nods | |
| [21:35] <JanC> and we'll compile a list at FOSDEM | |
| [21:35] <JanC> tens to be more reliable than doing beforehand :P | |
| [21:36] <czajkowski> we ended up in the Opera place again as they could seat 18 of us in the end | |
| [21:36] <JanC> tends* | |
| [21:36] <JanC> we actually borrowed seats from the MySQL people last year ☺ | |
| [21:36] <czajkowski> cool | |
| [21:36] <czajkowski> the friday night we ended up at some odd place but was nice | |
| [21:37] <JanC> they told the restaurant they would be maybe 50, but on Friday night I talked to a Belgian member of their community they didn't expect more than 30 | |
| [21:37] <czajkowski> and saturday as the group kept growing, we went to drug opera as only place I knew off hand that had large space. | |
| [21:37] <popey> have they finally banned smoking in pubs in .be now? | |
| [21:38] <JanC> so we were on the same table with Monty and got free liquorice wodka ☺ | |
| [21:38] <czajkowski> thoguth it was up to them and most do it bar the likes of delerium | |
| [21:38] <czajkowski> JanC: nice but tis evil stuff | |
| [21:41] <czajkowski> nn folks | |
| [21:41] <JanC> popey: not entirely | |
| [21:42] <JanC> popey: 2014-06-01 is the final cut-off date it seems | |
| [21:43] <JanC> there are some rules that make it difficult/expensive to allow smoking though | |
| [21:44] <JanC> e.g. Delirium is large enough that they have to make > 50% of the bar non-smoking, and the smoking parts need equipment to "suck" (most of) the smoke away | |
| [22:08] <JanC> czajkowski: I started https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fosdem/2012 but need to add more info the next days ☺ | |
| [23:43] <jono> hey all | |
| [23:45] <MrChrisDruif> Aloha jono | |
| [23:46] <MrChrisDruif> How's it going jono ? | |
| [23:47] <jono> hey MrChrisDruif | |
| [23:47] <jono> good thanks | |
| [23:47] <jono> http://www.jonobacon.org/2012/01/23/hacking-on-accomplishments/ | |
| [23:47] <MrChrisDruif> Yeah, I'm not subscripted to your blog ^_^ | |
| [23:48] <jono> MrChrisDruif, it is on Planet Ubuntu too | |
| [23:48] <MrChrisDruif> Not an avid reader, let's just put it like that ^_^ | |
| [23:49] <jono> np | |
| [23:50] <MrChrisDruif> Awesome trophies ^_^ | |
| [23:50] <jono> :-) | |
| [23:51] <JanC> hm, I wonder how that would work for helping people on IRC, on a forum, or in real life... | |
| [23:51] <MrChrisDruif> Clicked a button, Clicked another button...I'd have a million trophies by now then ;-) | |
| [23:51] <MrChrisDruif> AskUbuntu should be doable | |
| [23:51] <MrChrisDruif> IRC...interesting one...real life...ghe | |
| [23:52] <JanC> real life help is often the most important ;) | |
| [23:52] <MrChrisDruif> AskUbuntu already has a rewarding system in place, you could retrieve those I think | |
| [23:52] <JanC> but most difficult to reward | |
| [23:53] <MrChrisDruif> That is indeed true | |
| [23:53] <MrChrisDruif> How about "Installed *ubuntu on someone else's system"? =P | |
| [23:54] <JanC> I see the spec mentions this to some degree | |
| [23:54] <MrChrisDruif> "Made your first OpenSSH connection" =P | |
| [23:54] <JanC> under "Human Issued" | |
| [23:55] <jono> JanC, yeah, some things would need to be issued by people | |
| [23:55] <jono> the idea was to first get the automated ones fixed up first | |
| [23:55] <jono> then we have a platform in which we can generate trophies | |
| [23:55] <JanC> but a lot of that sort of work happens outside of any official structure | |
| [23:55] <jono> JanC, what do you mean? | |
| [23:56] <JanC> well, lots of people help other prople without any structure being around to record that | |
| [23:56] <jono> JanC, oh right, yeah | |
| [23:57] <jono> this system would not cover everything | |
| [23:57] <jono> but I think it could cover a lot | |
| [23:57] <jono> such as filing your first bug, getting a first patch approved, making a translation etc | |
| [23:58] <MrChrisDruif> Yes, those can be "easily" added, but JanC was referring to real life help situations | |
| [23:58] <JanC> for several reasons translations aren't always registered to the actual translator... | |
| [23:58] <jono> right | |
| [23:59] <JanC> and the same for patches, etc. | |
| [23:59] <jono> agreed, but I think this system would provide enough coverage of activities to help people feel that their contributions are worthwhile | |
| [23:59] <jono> so it won't cover everything, but I get the impression it would cover enough to be interesting for folks | |
| [23:59] <jono> and then the human issued can help cover the rest | |
| [23:59] <jono> this is still very much a WIP though, hence why we are just playing with ideas | |
| [23:59] <cjohnston> jono, do you have dates for the end of applying for sponsorship yet please | |
| [23:59] <jono> cjohnston, not yet | |
| [23:59] <jono> I am going to get this out tomorrow | |
