[07:01] <dholbach> good morning
[08:16] <sycoso> Did anyone happen to find out whether the showdown workshops are going to be recorded?
[08:17] <jokerdino> no one mentioned anything about it.
[08:17] <jokerdino> but it is possible that it will be recorded
[08:20] <sycoso> Ok, let's hope so. Because a bunch of people happen to be asleep or busy at the scheduled time...
[09:04] <rigved> hi everyone. i am following the simple media player tutorial. but the goocanvas code is not working in ubuntu 12.04. can anyone help?
[11:05] <dpm> we will record the workshops

[11:08] <dpm> jokerdino, I created an ubuntuappshowdown tag last week, but I can't seem to find it. Do you know if it's been deleted, or if it needs approval?
[11:09] <jokerdino> jorge castro nuked the tag
[11:10] <jokerdino> dpm: so, the tag is kinda deleted now.
[11:10] <dpm> jokerdino, did he say why? Otherwise I'll just ask him when he's online
[11:12] <jokerdino> dpm: i think he thought some random passer by created it and removed it.
[11:12] <dpm> no worries, I'll talk to him later on
[11:12] <dpm> thanks jokerdino
[11:13] <jokerdino> thanks :)
