| [05:41] <MooDoo> hello all | |
| === zequence_ is now known as zequence | |
| [11:32] <Pricey> sveta: No point until they're an ubuntu member though ;) | |
| [11:32] <sveta> :) | |
| [12:13] <Fuchs> it's a wild sveta | |
| [12:56] <mittwally> Have I to be present personally to Ubuntu meeting to become a member? | |
| [12:57] <Fuchs> mittwally: it is recommended, as people are likely to ask you questions | |
| [12:58] <Fuchs> mittwally: I assume you already filled out your wiki page as recommended, got some testimonials (and maybe some already existing members to cheer for you at the meeting)? | |
| [13:00] <mittwally> Yes, I read the wiki as recommended https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership | |
| [13:03] <Fuchs> oh, note that my answer was concerning going the IRC way and get the ubuntu IRC membership, | |
| [13:03] <Fuchs> local boards are different, and I am not aware of how these work. But my guess would be that physical presence is good there, given that is what local boards are actually for | |
| [13:03] <Fuchs> on IRC you just need to be present (as in online and in the channel) | |
| [13:05] <Fuchs> reading https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership/NewMember suggests that being present is good if not even mandatory, though | |
| [14:04] <hggdh> mittwally: you *do* need to be present on the MB meeting. If you are not there we will not decide on your application | |
| [14:04] <hggdh> mittwolly: exceptions could be arranged, but we need previous contact for that. | |
| [14:06] <hggdh> s/mittwolly/mittwally/ | |
| [14:06] <mittwally> hggdh: Which country is the meeting? | |
| [14:07] <hggdh> mittwally: I am not sure I understand your question. There are people from everywhere in the world in the membership board | |
| [14:07] <hggdh> the meeting is purely on-line | |
| [14:08] <Pici> I don't thunk Fuchs understood that... | |
| [14:09] <hggdh> yeah | |
| [14:11] <Fuchs> Pici: hm? | |
| [14:11] <hggdh> there are no "local" boards anymore. Now we have a meeting at 1200 UTC and 2200 UTC (on different days). Previously we had Americas, EU, and Asia-Pacific boards | |
| [14:11] <Pici> Even the americas/eu/asia boards were all online though | |
| [14:11] <hggdh> (and previously previously, just one) | |
| [14:12] <hggdh> yes | |
| [14:13] <mittwally> hggdh: How is the exam? There are a few questions about my job in Ubuntu, that's it? | |
| [14:14] <hggdh> mittwally: there is no exam. We just want to confirm you indeed have a *sustained* (and longer than 6 months) effort on helping Ubuntu. Of course, we ask for references | |
| [14:14] <Pici> It is more like an interview. | |
| [14:14] <hggdh> testimonials of current Ubuntu members go a long way in helping you | |
| [14:14] <mittwally> I have 2 months yet, hehe, long time to go | |
| [14:15] <mittwally> But I'm loving Ubuntu, it's a good system. | |
| [14:15] <hggdh> Pici is correct, it is more like an interview. And we are NOT trying to trick you :-) | |
| [14:17] <mittwally> Hehe, I don't if here is the right place to ask it, but yesterday I asked about manual of Ubuntu but it is too basic. There is a way to get more knowlegde about Ubuntu? | |
| [14:19] <Fuchs> Pici: so the local boards are gone now? Pity :( | |
| [14:19] <hggdh> this is indeed not the right place (we deal with IRC issues here). But you can search wiki.ubuntu.com -- there is a wealth of iinformation there | |
| [14:20] <mittwally> ok, thanks, switching | |
| [19:55] <rafaellaguna> https://launchpad.net/~rafaellaguna | |
| [19:56] <Pici> rafaellaguna: Are you looking for an Ubuntu cloak? | |
| [19:56] <rafaellaguna> I'm asking for a cloak | |
| [19:56] <rafaellaguna> yes, sorry | |
| [19:57] <Pici> Pricey: Could you please apply an ubuntu/member/rafaellaguna to rafaellaguna? | |
| [19:58] <rafaellaguna> excuse me, as my nickname? | |
| [19:58] <Pricey> Pici: rafaellaguna: You're all set. | |
| [19:58] <Pricey> rafaellaguna: Make sure you identify to nickserv if you want the cloak to work. http://freenode.net/sasl is a good link. | |
| [19:59] <Pici> rafaellaguna: congrats :) | |
| [19:59] <Pici> Pricey: thanks | |
| [19:59] <Pricey> No problem. | |
| [19:59] <rafaellaguna> thank you! | |
| [19:59] <rafaellaguna> so I must use this URL as my server | |
| [20:00] <Fuchs> nope | |
| [20:00] <Fuchs> you can optionally read on that page how to configure your client (IRC program) to authenticate via SASL | |
| [20:00] <rafaellaguna> ok, I'll do. thanks so much | |
| [20:00] <Fuchs> doing so will ensure that you are authenticated to services (such as nickserv) already on connect, and hence cloaked on connect. It's recommended but entirely optional. | |
| [20:01] <Fuchs> if you click on your client in the lower list (if available) there should be a manual | |
| [20:03] <rafaellaguna> I'm looking at the freenode SASL scripts right now | |
| [20:03] <Fuchs> what client are you using? | |
| [20:04] <rafaellaguna> xchat | |
| [20:05] <Fuchs> you might want to consider switching to hexchat, which is an xchat fork that does it out of the box. If not: take the perl script. It works. | |
| [20:05] <rafaellaguna> didn't know that client, I'll have a look too | |
| [20:05] <Fuchs> It's basically the same as xchat, just a couple more features | |
| [20:07] <Unit193> Including built-in SASL. | |
| [20:07] <Fuchs> es, I already mentioned that :p | |
| [20:07] <Fuchs> *yes | |
| [20:07] <rafaellaguna> thank you for this | |
| [20:08] <Fuchs> you're welcome | |
| [20:14] <Unit193> Meh, my brain is broken. | |
| [20:14] <Fuchs> Unit193: try applying salt | |
| [20:18] <IdleOne> Unit193: Did this happen to you https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=860862697264394 ? | |
| [21:50] <benonsoftware> [M@/sort | |
| [21:50] <Fuchs> o.O | |
| [21:51] <benonsoftware> Oops, sorry about that. | |
