[14:59:34] <aclark> Morning

[15:41:10] <aclark> shentonfreude: ping

[15:41:53] <aclark> shentonfreude: what we want mainly is to make eddie an admin of the google apps stuff so he can "do stuff"

[16:13:27] <shentonfreude> OK, Eddie's now got admin privs for Organizations and Users — but not Super Admin privs. If we need that, we can grant it later.

[16:19:20] <aclark> shentonfreude: cool thanks; yeah don't want to give away the store, just want to enable people to do stuff

[16:19:26] <aclark> he's trying to join IRC i think

[16:21:30] <shentonfreude> I've deleted armin@dcpython.org user, since we'll just email alias to his normal account

[16:28:35] <aclark> cool

[16:50:51] <aclark> boyonwheels: i forwarded your email to Eddie who will get back to you

[16:51:04] <boyonwheels> Ok. Thanks!

[16:51:11] <aclark> boyonwheels: thank you!

[16:51:20] <boyonwheels> No problem. I hope I can help.

[16:51:28] <aclark> boyonwheels: basically just trying to get a bunch of peeps together so we can Not Let Balls Drop™

[16:51:52] <boyonwheels> That makes a lot of sense to me, and new years is a good time to do it. ;)

[16:52:04] <aclark> yep

[16:52:23] <aclark> boyonwheels: we had a lot o responses to the "need PM" help so now i think we need to find something for everyone to do

[16:52:30] <aclark> the website is first then we can do other projects

[16:52:39] <boyonwheels> Nice

[16:53:04] <boyonwheels> It's always a good sign when you're flooded with volunteers.

[16:53:16] <aclark> very true

[16:53:39] <boyonwheels> Signs of life? Check.

[16:54:00] <aclark> pretty soon we'll be having our 9:30club meetup with live music :-)

[16:56:26] <boyonwheels> hahahah

[16:56:55] <boyonwheels> Yes, the Blackcat will be MINE!

[16:57:04] <aclark> hah

[17:03:14] <dahoste> aclark, how'd the heroku stuff go on tues?

[17:11:18] <aclark> good

[17:11:26] <aclark> made me want to switch

[17:11:31] <dahoste> from...

[17:11:42] <aclark> though i don't know if i want to pay for redis yet (from rackspace cloud)

[17:12:44] <aclark> dahoste: the push to build stuff is compelling

[17:12:49] <aclark> err, push to deploy

[17:14:13] <dahoste> I poked around the heroku site some this weekend, and frankly everything was so abstract it frightened me. I think I just haven't done enough real deployments yet for that stuff to understand how these concepts work.

[17:18:04] <aclark> dahoste: i wouldn't try to understand how heroku works, it's nuts. the point is more what you can do with it (which is not worry about it, in theory)

[17:18:50] <aclark> dahoste: they basically abstract away the concept of a server, via various "cloud tricks"

[17:20:09] <aclark> another compelling point that was made was log aggregation; i can setup X number of boxes on EC2 or RSC then aggregate logs somewhere, or i can let heroku scale infinitely for me and not worry about any of that

[17:23:04] <dahoste> the world of tomorroooooow!

[17:34:47] <boyonwheels> In the year two thous-AAAAAAAAAND!

[17:44:12] <benji> away

[17:44:17] <benji> heh

[17:51:49] <aclark> hah
