What we need to do is specify what we do where - Hopefully it won't take too long as I do hate getting tied up in the specifics of things ;-) Chris -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/

More importantly - using the Ubuntu wiki is a good way to encourage collaboration between teams, since all parts of the Ubuntu community use it and can see new things being added. Launchpad has its uses, but it's also important not to get carried away - in my opinion projects which don't use code will not generally need to use its repository features.

I had a look as soon as it was created :-) but unfortunately I got totally lost, and do not yet understand what I can or should do, or - actually what it can be used for. I am not panicking though, I will be asking appropriate questions when I can put some time to it (which is not just now unfortunately) -- alan cocks Kubuntu user#10391 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/

Hi Alan, I had a bash at writing a tutorial here: http://www.justuber.com/blog/2007/04/25/how-to-use-bazaar-and-launchpad-for-hosting-your-code/ I do see why bazaar might look a little scary compared to the wiki however.

We already have the wiki, it works, multiple people have managed to upload content. Why change things. Yes, I understand revision control, but is it _really_ necessary for the scale of thing we're doing? That said, if you wrote a how-to for uploading to bazaar maybe that might be useful to coerce people over?

[ubuntu-uk] [uk-marketing] Using launchpad
Hi folks, I notice that people aren't really using launchpad and bazaar for ubuntu-uk marketing stuff. That's cool, but I just wondered if there was a reason why in particular? Do people find it hard to do, or is there just a lack of interest in doing it? If people would rather not use it, that's fine we'll just go back to the wiki, getting people's contributions is a heck of a lot more important than the way in which we get them.
