alvis Just trying to get my head around the doc project. I'll have something up on github by the end of the week. 19:37
whiteknight awesome!
alvis whiteknight: Btw & fwiw, I really appreciate your blog posts. They've been a huge help. 19:38
whiteknight great, I'm glad about it 19:39
cotto sorry, distracted for the next few minutes 19:40
whiteknight okay, if few people are here, and those here are distracted, let's call the meeting 19:41
cotto back 19:42
co-worker needed clarification on something 19:43
alvis cotto: It's clear you're swamped, but is there any way you can do a weekly blog post (or something) about Parrot's direction, yada, yada. 19:44
I apologize if my question is out of order. 19:45
cotto alvis: not at all.
dukeleto is bad about blogging
cotto alvis: I'll rejigger my priorities and try to at the very least not be a black hole. 19:47
i.e. blog about M0 and my hope for the docs project
alvis cotto: Well, like I said, it's clear you're swamped, but that'd be great. 19:48
dukeleto alvis: we are good about answering specific questions
alvis dukeleto: yes, everyone really is.
dukeleto alvis: everybody is a volunteer and does what they can when they can, with no apologies needed
alvis dukeleto: Understood 19:49
dukeleto alvis: and remember, it is better to act and ask for forgiveness, than waiting and asking permission
cotto +1
alvis Ha! Ok <shakes head> 19:50
Should I create a new doc branch? Do I need a commit bit? (Something else I don't know/understand about?) 19:55
cotto has someone received alvis' cla? 19:56
alvis cotto: I faxed it, to the number provided, last week. 19:57
cotto alvis: I'm going to to trust you on that. You have a commit bit. 19:59
any objections?
alvis cotto: Ok, but I'm happy to resend it. NBD.
cotto If it's not clear, I nominate alvis for a commit bit. 20:00
benabik +1
NotFound +1 20:01
Util +1
cotto alvis: there you go. Don't break the build, make things more awesome.
dukeleto +1 on a bit for alvis 20:02
alvis cotto: Ok && will do.
dukeleto alvis: you now should have read-write access to all code repositories in the parrot organization on github
alvis: github.com/organizations/parrot 20:03
20:04 lucian joined
alvis dukeleto: Ok then. 20:04
Thank you. 20:05
cotto Is there anything else before we call it a wrap? 20:07
alvis One last question: Are there any objections to me putting on a presentation at the local university?
I was thinking of tweaking and then using Allison's slides (though I'll have to get better up to speed first). 20:08
cotto alvis: That's a great idea. I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd be glad to give you feedback if you post your slides in #parrot. 20:09
alvis cotto: Ok, sounds good. It'll be a'bit before I can get to it, but I might be able to bring some of these young'uns, down here, around. :) 20:10
benabik Good slides/brocures for parrot would be excellent documentation. :-D 20:11
alvis benabik++
benabik alvis: It's come up _repeatedly_. 20:12
alvis benabik: Ahh ..., Ok.
benabik The conversation generally goes "I'd love to do a presentation on Parrot, but what do I say? Does anybody have slides?" 20:13
Then a lot of "slides are a great idea!" :-D
alvis benabik: I'll make 'em; post 'em for everyone to see; and, then, humbly receive corrections. :) 20:14
