Hello Stefano,
Well done and keep the good work up :)
I was just wondering, am I the only one with this:

Totally blank no matter what I choose.
Thanks!
P.S.I'm not a fan of Software Center and never use it but for the sake of our 
team, I'm testing it :)

[Lubuntu-desktop] The new direction for lubuntu

2011-10-10 Thread Phill Whiteside
Hi Jono,

your favourite pain in the neck.

you wrote a brilliant article on meeting crossroads on your views at
http://www.jonobacon.org/2008/12/19/the-ubuntu-ethos/ For anyone who has not
read it and understood it, the remainder of this will be meaningless.

For ubuntu in general, we are loosing really good people. I'm sure you'd
like to know why


(19:52:20) x sort of been drifting to Fedora , where I can be nameless
(19:52:37) phillw: I have a problem with councils... I'll say it straight. A
camel is a two humped beast that has a bad attitude comittee devlopment
of a ourse.
(19:53:28) xx: Well, I do not think highly of #ubuntu, horrible channel,
all manor of bad un-ubuntu behavior there
(19:53:31) phillw: As you konw, I'm going to take the RHCE exam, so already
have fedora on one of my VM's
(19:53:39) xx: And the CC is almost hand picked
(19:54:00) x: They take a list of candidates, and select the ones they
want to run
(19:54:30) phillw: Thank you for being so honest. I made my views clear in
the recent ubuntu questionaire.
(19:54:42) x: You have to be a serious brown nose if you want to raise
up in the Ubuntu ranks, has nothing to do with competence
(19:55:09) x: If I did not enjoy the forums, and a few friends on IRC, I
would not be active with Ubuntu at all =)
(19:55:24) phillw: I'd lol, if it were not for the fact they are driving
people away.
(19:55:29) xx: I do not like LP, #ubuntu, or the CC
(19:55:50) xx: +1 for driving people away, good people
(19:56:21) xx: That is why Ubuntu is a gateway OS, it is very easy for
new users, but many people migrate to another option after 12-18 months
(19:57:03) phillw: At least is not just me seeing that. and also why I
REALLY do not want lubuntu to fall to 'council'.
(19:58:01) xx: Well, if you think about it, you either have to fall
under the CC or change your name
(19:58:03) xxx: your choice
(19:58:17) x: I went with name change
-- 

This, very experienced person should be listened to. From others I have been
asked to go to debian areas etc.

Jono, one thing from all of this is 'councils', if you wish to chat quietly
we can discuss. One thing lubuntu has not got is a council, the other
council people are circling like vultures to add lubuntu to their list of
domains. It is actually quite abhorrent on the ubuntu-irc-council area. Of
all team areas that I have ever asked for help as lubuntu grew... they said
no. That made me take a step back  re consider things... Then I realised
that we are actually leaking good, dedicated people. And I also realised why
lubuntu actually got there... We don't have a council, we do not vote people
up on popularity competitions. We do not if you vote for me, I'll vote for
you which sees the same people on so many 'councils' - How are they
representative of the people who:
1) use it
2) support it.

For a council to state that lubuntu could not have its OP's agreed to, when
we do not need them is beyond a joke  proves what little use they are. We
had, and have a great IRC area long before they appeared do we need a
council? No, we do not. We are self governing. We have our discussions on
the mailing list and decide upon things. Then the Devs tell us which ones we
can have; whether programmes, new features, new art-work etc.

Councils? Badges?... I say no, in the early days, we held a vote and said
NO. I really do think that ubuntu in all flavours should be given back to
those who use it  no more the 'behind the doors, closed, committee
meetings'.

As ever,

thanks for reading - I look forward to your comments.

Regards,

Phill.

[Lubuntu-desktop] URGENT - Ubuntu Open Week - Call for Sessions

2011-10-10 Thread Amber Graner
Hi all,

Sorry for the short notice on asking you all to join in and lead a
session of Open Week [1],  As Charlie Kravetz (aka charlie-tca)
pointed out earlier emails about open week seemed exclusionary to any
of the support Ubuntu Derivatives, I am very sorry about that and that
was not the intention at all.

Open Week is open to you all as well.  Charlie already jumped in and
will be giving an Xubuntu: What is that? session. (Thank you again,
Charlie)

If have some slots available and would love to have you all engage the
community what your Derivative Distribution is, what your needs are,
and how the community can help.

Thanks again, and sorry for any mis-communication on part as it was unintended.

If you want to sign up for a session you can email my or jcastro or
just add it to the timetable [2] yourself:

Please include the following information:

Session Name:
Session Summary:
Session Leader Name (to include IRC Nick)
Time Slot:

Thanks again in advance for your help and participation in making this
another successful open week!


with much gratitude,
Amber

[Lubuntu-desktop] Last information before the release

2011-10-10 Thread Julien Lavergne
Hi,

Just a reminder, release of Lubuntu 11.10 is still panned for Thursday
(did I say it already ? :p)

With the testing still in progress (see
http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/build/lubuntu/all), there is also a
couple of information we will provide on release day.

There is the official announcement :
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Announcement/11.10

There is also the release notes :
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/ReleaseNotes/OneiricOcelot

It's still drafts, but if you have comments to add, let me know (before
Thurday ;))

Regards,
Julien Lavergne

I'll do my best for isos, I'm limited as it takes hours to download, any
priorities yeah,, i386 . i686 variants only, we have a guy begging for
ppc... Not default, but I do not think it is impossible.

@all please do try  click off the tests, we REALLY need them.

Phill.
