should development releases be limited to those who have at least a basic
understanding what the word development means? ;^)

That would rule me out as well :P

I do know our devs do strive to keep the release notes up to date on the
testing area. It is unfair to ask that they release to the many forums. Any
of us are welcome to update the testing area and it should, IMHO, be the
area that any forum posts etc refer back to. We have a great ML for lubuntu,
we can discuss 'what is a bug' within our own team, but as we go viral - we
are going to have to use lp for bugs and the wiki for testing else I fear we
will end up with one area saying one thing and another something else.

Regards,

Phill.

 One person went on a rant without spending a little time to explore.

 They were basically comparing our Alpha 3 to a final release w/o even
 having read the release notes..

 I think the i386 is pretty good other than a few cosmetic blemishes, can't
 comment on the 64bit version because I lack 64bit hardware but I saw a lot
 of bugs reported.

 Hopefully in about another week I'll be able to monitor the forums a bit
 closer, but not all of those threads should have been merged. Regardless it
 was mostly just a rant that begs to question, should development releases
 be limited to those who have at least a basic understanding what the word
 development means? ;^)

 I'd hope not actually because I might not be able to pass the test.

 Whilst we cannot serve the forum area, would I ask people to keep an eye on
 them, and re-iterrate that bugs should be reported correctly.

 Having discussions on areas that our devs do not monitor is regressive. I
 know that the ops on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11142592 have
 and do wonderful work. If you see a posting, please 'report' it and ask the
 they move it there. All you need to do is click on 'REPORT'. the guys are
 not going to say it is spam. it just cuts down where we look and allows
 people on the forum to know to know better that they are not alone.

 Herding the comments into one area is better for us  better for the forum
 area.

 Regards,

 Phill.

2010-08-09 Thread Phillip Whiteside
Hi,

there's a lot going on for me at present, could someone take a quick look
at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9699653#post9699653 and answer
it. I'm pretty sure it is just a case of removing the CD from the software
sources, but I've not seen the error before. If you're not forum people
then reply here and I'll post it up tomorrow.

thanks,

Phill.
P.S. the snoring your hear is me getting an early night :-)

[Lubuntu-desktop] Forum Support

2010-04-30 Thread Phillip Whiteside
Hi,

you will be aware that we now have a lubuntu prefix on
http://ubuntuforums.org/ whilst I know everyone is busy, and it is a real
small team could I ask that you do pop on every now and again to check for
lubuntu questions. The way the system works so that you can pick up on
people who have either used the lubuntu prefix or a lubuntu tag are:

1) Click on Search, select Tag, type in lubuntu
2) Click on Search, select Advanced, Under the banner that says Search
Options, to the left you will see an option Find Threads with Prefix.
Scroll down the list and select lubuntu

They've been kind enough to give us the option, IMHO it is only right that
we do take the time to go and check on postings that are lubuntu related.

Regards,

Phill.
