[18:14] <AlanBell> but it won't be in bracknell

[18:35] <jono> balloons, all set in a few mins?
[18:37] <balloons> jono, sure sure
[18:40] <jono> balloons, https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/327652fd462b9fda0c71bb576cbcb8deba34d268?authuser=0&hl=en-US
[18:41] <jcastro> JoseeAntonioR: hey so we're going to start the hangout earlier right?
[18:41] <jcastro> I don't see it on the fridge calendar?
[18:42] <balloons> coming
[18:42] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: yep, at 18UTC
[18:42] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: I'll also add it to the fridge calendar, although we have our own calendar ;)
[18:43] <jcastro> what?
[18:43] <jcastro> seriously, another calendar, no!
[18:43] <jcastro> just use the fridge calendar
[18:43] <pleia2> we can't, the bot needs its own calendar
[18:43] <jcastro> sigh
[18:43] <jcastro> I don't understand why we're adding all this complicated stuff
[18:43] <jcastro> we don't need an IRC channel or bots
[18:43] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: otherwise, the topic, tweeting and identi.ca thingies won't work
[18:44] <jcastro> the topic for what? it's a radio show!
[18:44] <JoseeAntonioR> and what about the tweeting/dent features?
[18:44] <jcastro> anyway, whatever, how do you feel about starting an hour earlier?
[18:44] <jcastro> what is it tweeting?
[18:45] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: twitter?
[18:45] <JoseeAntonioR> we have @UbuntuOnAir
[18:45] <pleia2> it's the same bot as classroom but with some modifications for the on air sessions, so it tweets 10 minutes prior to the session, and when the session starts
[18:45] <jcastro> well we could always just tweet directly on the account during the broadcast
[18:45] <pleia2> (we can also send it tweets via a command as a PM to the bot)
[18:45] <JoseeAntonioR> so twitter followers will know when a session is about to start
[18:47] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: starting an hour before is fine for me, I'll be here at least 15 mins before we start
[18:47] <jcastro> ok
[18:47] <JoseeAntonioR> bdmurray wanted a test session
[18:47] <JoseeAntonioR> aka one of our speakers
[18:47] <jcastro> ok so 1700-1900 on thursday right?
[18:48] <jcastro> yeah that's fine, you had someone else right?
[18:48] <jcastro> there were like 2?
[18:48] <JoseeAntonioR> yeah, bdmurray and bkerensa
[18:48] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: didn't we agree in 18-20utc?
[18:48] <JoseeAntonioR> we were supposed to do it 19-21, and already changed it
[18:48] <bkerensa> ?
[18:48] <jcastro> oh ok
[18:48] <JoseeAntonioR> bkerensa: uonair
[18:48] <jcastro> what does the calendar say, 18-20?
[18:48] <JoseeAntonioR> yeah
[18:49] <jcastro> ok perfect, let me add that to the fridge calendar
[18:49] <JoseeAntonioR> great
[18:50] <jcastro> I'll grab a few more people
[18:50] <jcastro> we should get Joey up in here.
[18:50] <JoseeAntonioR> that's fine for sure
[18:50] <bkerensa> :D I get my Chevy Volt tomorrow :P
[18:50] <JoseeAntonioR> which Joey?
[18:50] <jcastro> omg joey
[18:50] <bkerensa> lol
[18:50] <JoseeAntonioR> oh :P
[18:50] <jcastro> popey: were you going to pop in for a bit as well?
[18:50] <bkerensa> he uses a Mac though
[18:50] <bkerensa> ;p
[18:51] <JoseeAntonioR> popey sent an email to Joey
[18:51] <JoseeAntonioR> if you want people in the hangout, just let me know to add them to uonair circles, I can also give you the password for it
[18:52] <JoseeAntonioR> don't forget to add uonair back
[18:52] <jcastro> ok
[18:52] <jcastro> I'm thinking of a few people to ask
[18:52] <jcastro> bkerensa: I think getting vanhoof on there again will be useful, he mentioned so much stuff that many people didn't take out of the onair
[18:53] <bkerensa> jcastro: good idea... you should get mims to come on :D
[18:54] <jcastro> we'll be there
[18:54] <jcastro> and I noticed most of the stuff was all desktopy stuff
[18:54] <jcastro> server people are too busy RUNNING THE PLANET to be on hangouts.
[18:54] <jcastro> wow, I am disappointed. I was expecting a onair mailing list too.
[18:55] <jcastro> (NOTE: Do not create, that was a joke.)
[18:55] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: we can get one, too
[18:55] <JoseeAntonioR> :P
[18:55] <bkerensa> jcastro: someone registered ubuntuonair.com ?
[18:55] <JoseeAntonioR> bkerensa: popey did
[18:56] <bkerensa> LOL
[18:56] <jcastro> yeah
[18:56] <jcastro> it's awesome isn't it
[18:56] <bkerensa> not as awesome as Cloudtura :P
[18:56] <jcastro> ok so who has control of that wordpress instance?
[18:56] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: popey and I, and I can get an account for you
[18:56] <jcastro> sure, or you can add stuff
[18:56] <jcastro> question.
[18:56] <JoseeAntonioR> go for it
[18:56] <jcastro> maybe instead of aggregating from everywhere
[18:57] <jcastro> we can plop a disqus right on this page?
[18:57] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: I was thinking on something like that, maybe a "social chat" widget
[18:57] <JoseeAntonioR> we can get people to login with their facebook/twitter accounts
[18:58] <jcastro> do we have a wiki page?
[18:59] <jcastro> (seriously asking, so we can schedule the order of speakers)
[18:59] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: nope, we don't have one
[18:59] <jcastro> can you mail me an account for the wordpress?
[18:59] <jcastro> I think I'll just add the stuff there
[19:00] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: sure, one sec
[19:00] <pleia2> mhall119: made this wiki page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Classroom/OnAir
[19:01] <jcastro> that works, ta
[19:01] <pleia2> (currently it's more of a "best practices" but it can be expanded)
[19:01] <jcastro> oh that's general best practices
[19:01] <jcastro> ok I'll put like the speaker schedule and stuff on the page
[19:01] <pleia2> yeah
[19:01] <jcastro> the ubuntuonair.com page I mean
[19:01] <bkerensa> We should be smart and not use google on air
[19:01] <bkerensa> ;p
[19:02] <bkerensa> We should use Kaltura which is Open Source ;)
[19:02] <jcastro> oooh, that'd be a nice charm
[19:02] <bkerensa> jcastro: :P I'm sure their CM would love a charm
[19:02] <bkerensa> he has already said he would comp us if we wanted to use their platform
[19:03] <JoseeAntonioR> bkerensa: the easy part of g+ hangouts are that they automatically get recorded on the youtube channel, so people won't have to spend hours uploading videos
[19:03] <bkerensa> JoseeAntonioR: Kaltura does the same
[19:03] <bkerensa> ;)
[19:03] <JoseeAntonioR> oh, then may be an option
[19:03] <jcastro> bkerensa: file a wishlist for that in lp/charms please
[19:03] <bkerensa> kk
[19:03] <jcastro> http://www.kaltura.org/kalorg/kalturaCE/trunk/INSTALLATION.txt
[19:03] <jcastro> include a link to that
[19:04] <jcastro> I just broke my 2 factor auth for my SSO so I need to fix that. :-/
[19:04] <JoseeAntonioR> ouch, good luck
[19:05] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: mind a quick PM?
[19:05] <jcastro> Mail pls, I'm about to be kicked off all the services I am on
[19:05] * jcastro goes to call ISD
[19:07] <mhall119> jcastro: have fun
[19:07] <mhall119> tell them I said hello :)
[19:51] <jcastro> JoseeAntonioR: link me to your blog pls
[20:09] <jcastro> popey: around?
[20:09] <popey> ya
[20:10] <jcastro> hey so I made a disqus for ubuntuonair
[20:10] <jcastro> can you pm me your disqus email or username so I can make you an admin?
[20:10] <jcastro> also
[20:10] <popey> ugh
[20:10] <jcastro> any idea how to enable it for the wordpress page?
[20:11] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: sorry, almost fell asleep, joseeantonior.wordpress.com
[20:11] <popey> yeah, sure
[20:11] <jcastro> JoseeAntonioR: pm me your disqus username too pls
[20:12] <popey> jcastro, popeydc is my disqus account
[20:13] <popey> jcastro, might need to change that page to a post to enable comments?
[20:13] <jcastro> yeah that's what I was wondering
[20:13] <popey> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-allow-comments-on-pages
[20:13] <jcastro> if I had to change it to a post instead of a page
[20:13] <popey> seems you can do it
[20:13] <popey> tweak the page.php in the theme
[20:13] <jcastro> yeah just looking where in the UI that is
[20:14] <popey> appearance -> themes
[20:15] <jcastro> and then where?
[20:15] <jcastro> it's all like gui, doesn't show me where I can edit the templates
[20:15] <jcastro> also what's this hosted on? Will it scale?
[20:15] <popey> its on my vps
[20:16] <popey> if you wanna put it "in the cloud" go ahead
[20:16] <popey> I'll happily point it wherever
[20:16] <jcastro> ok so
[20:16] <jcastro> why not just move it over to the youtube page once that goes live?
[20:16] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: free for a test session?
[20:16] <popey> you still need to point dns somewhere
[20:16] <popey> could certainly just put in an http redirect
[20:17] <popey> thats not going to take much effort
[20:17] <popey> in fact that was my original suggestion :)
[20:17] <jcastro> I dunno
[20:17] <jcastro> that seems like asking for trouble
[20:17] <popey> how so?
[20:17] <jcastro> redirect from a VPS?
[20:17] <jcastro> no thanks.
[20:17] <popey> explain
[20:18] <jcastro> hey so how about this, I get awesome WP set up, we change DNS, and then run the thing on the cloud, when it's over you change DNS back
[20:18] <popey> as I said, i dont care where it runs
[20:18] <popey> I'll point the domain at whatever you want
[20:18] <jcastro> okey
[20:18] <popey> i just set that up because there was nothing else there
[20:18] <popey> and it was "easy"
[20:18] * jcastro nods
[20:18] <jcastro> this will work
[20:18] <jcastro> I'll juju it
[20:18] <popey> to the cloud!
[20:18] <jcastro> and then when we're not live doing stuff
[20:18] <jcastro> we'll run it off your vps
[20:19] <popey> sounds like a plan
[20:19] <jcastro> or leave up a splash page or something
[20:19] <jcastro> ok so before then
[20:19] <jcastro> where can I edit this theme php?
[20:20] <jcastro> popey: we'll change it tomorrow when I can get you an ip
[20:21] <popey> jcastro, http://ubuntuonair.com/wp-admin/theme-editor.php?file=page.php&theme=thematic
[20:21] <jcastro> aha! thanks
[20:21] <popey> np
[20:21] <jcastro> man i could not find that
[20:22] <jcastro> http://ubuntuonair.com/
[20:22] <jcastro> awwww yeah
[20:22] <jcastro> this will be great
[20:22] <JoseeAntonioR> yay!
[20:22] <JoseeAntonioR> should we also get a Ubuntu On Air song?
[20:24] <JoseeAntonioR> popey: what about the Next hangout in... widget?
[20:24] <popey> feel free :D
[20:25] <popey> just remember whatever you do, jcastro is gonna have to replicate it in the cloud
[20:25] <JoseeAntonioR> popey: where can I find the code for it?
[20:25] <JoseeAntonioR> :P
[20:25] <JoseeAntonioR> I mean, the one you have at podcast.ubuntu-uk.com
[20:26] <popey> ahhh, that
[20:26] <popey> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://podcast.ubuntu-uk.org/wp-content/themes/uupc4/countdown.js"></script>
[20:26] <popey> there :)
[20:27] <popey> it looks up the date of the next event by looking at the google calendar of our show
[20:27] <JoseeAntonioR> that's great, I'll try to mod it
[20:27] <popey> ooh, you need /wp-content/themes/uupc4/countdown.php too
[20:27] <popey> hmmm
[20:29] <popey> thats not my code.. one moment
[20:29] <daker> hi
[20:29] * JoseeAntonioR waits
[20:29] <JoseeAntonioR> hello, daker
[20:30] <popey> have emailed the author and asked if he can make it available JoseeAntonioR
[20:30] <JoseeAntonioR> great, thank you
[20:30] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: we may be able to get a widget like the one in the top-right corner in podcast.ubuntu-uk.org
[20:31] <popey> its time-zone sensitive too, so gives an accurate countdown
[20:32] <JoseeAntonioR> we may use raw UTC
[20:32] <popey> you don't need to
[20:33] <popey> just put it in the calendar, and the widget shows the right time
[20:33] <JoseeAntonioR> oh, got it
[20:40] <jcastro> hey popey
[20:40] <jcastro> 15.185.103.210
[20:40] <jcastro> that will be the IP
[20:41] <jcastro> but don't point it yet pls
[20:43] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: will it be available before the session starts? remember we have to change the embed link 1min or 30s before
[20:43] <jcastro> yeah
[20:43] <jcastro> I am setting it up now
[20:43] <jcastro> and planning for the DNS delay
[20:43] <jcastro> we'll be way good
[20:44] * jcastro deploys on HP Cloud
[20:44] <JoseeAntonioR> that's the benefit of having juju on our side
[20:44] <jcastro> I just talked to Marco, this will be sweet
[20:45] <jcastro> later on we'll automate it so we can do this faster.
[20:45] <jcastro> but for now we'll have to copy the configs/etc over by hand
[20:45] <jcastro> that shouldn't be a problem
[20:45] <popey> of course there's no reason it has to be wordpress
[20:45] <popey> could be a static html page in the cloud :)
[20:45] <popey> held in bzr :)
[20:46] <jcastro> true
[20:46] <jcastro> but it's things like this which juju was made to solve
[20:46] <jcastro> pretend it's not a static webpage though. :)
[20:47] <jcastro> popey: post-this-hangout we'll do like off of a S3 bucket or something
[20:48] <popey> when is it due to start?
[20:48] <popey> in UTC
[20:49] <JoseeAntonioR> 18
[20:49] <popey> 18 on the thursday?
[20:49] <JoseeAntonioR> yep
[20:49] <popey> yay, my kind of time :)
[20:49] <jcastro> wanna cohost?
[20:50] <jcastro> your accent brings in pageviews
[20:50] <popey> lol
[20:50] <popey> sure
[20:50] <popey> I'll have to tidy my office :D
[20:50] <JoseeAntonioR> :P
[20:55] <JoseeAntonioR> should uonair add Robert to its circles?
[20:56] <jcastro> yeah
[20:58] <JoseeAntonioR> jcastro: you should add back
[21:48] <elfy> goodnight
[21:53] <cjohnston> /3/22
