hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

dude, I want to use Fedora now! Looks like an easy way to get lots of rep and become a leader in a community!

Fedora has a site too?

`Why other people can edit my questions/answers?
Goal of this site is... So questions and answers can be edited like wiki pages by experienced users of this site and this improves the overall quality of the knowledge base content. If this approach is not for you, we respect your choice.`

Ok, where's the source code for this site?

HAHAHAH IT WONT LET ME SIGNUP WITH MY LAUNCHPAD OPENID.

Fail.

I be puzzled

It looks like AskBot is almost a clone of Stefano's work...

11:44 PM

Ooohhh... it's not "reputation", it's "karma".

Where does this lead to?!

Askbot is an open source Q&A forum written in Python and Django with over 2 years of development.

Ok, where's teh codez?!

Askbot grew out of CNPROG project originally written by Mike Chen and Sailing Cai.

@jrg exactly

Is S.E. open source (not to my knowledge)?

Oh, here - github.com/ASKBOT/askbot-devel

@RolandTaylor SE is not open source.

hmmm

scratches head

11:46 PM

Nothing is open source, and stuff that claims to be open source is evil!

hahaa

Couldn't resist. - ask.fedoraproject.org/question/87/where-can-i-download-fedora1

Oh my, this is a SE clone through and through.

my pen is open source

2

@RolandTaylor guess what?! the search sucks more! It IS possible to have a suckier search than AUbuntu!

@jrg lies!

11:49 PM

Ok, time to migrate all the Ask Fedora stuff to the 2buntu room. :P

I have a pen that is open source, and one that is closed source, I even have a notebook that is closed source...

cc @MarcoCeppi

XD

NOOO

Not there!

I wish we could migrate our own messages

11:49 PM

Marco Ceppi

@RolandTaylor why are you not a Ubuntu member?

@RolandTaylor yeah why not?

Marco Ceppi

I am quite round in real life, as is indicated by the videos

ajmitch

@jrg that ask.fedoraproject.org code is nothing new

I know.

11:53 PM

which makes @MarcoCeppi a all around good guy...

It's just like, wow.

Quite round? O.O

ajmitch

ask.debian.net used to look far more similar to SE sites as well

@jokerdino I have not applied as yet

@RolandTaylor we should apply together so we can both get rejected together!

11:54 PM

ask debian looks better than ask fedora.

At least debian tried to be different.

Oli

Yeah before Shapado pulled its finger out and started working on design.

@TheX haha

the ask fedora guys just plain borrowed everything.

Oli

@jrg They didn't. They used a piece of off the shelf software that did.

My questions still doesn't have an answer. :(

11:55 PM

Or you will get accepted and I will get rejected... (that is how my life works)

@Oli I still don't like it. :P

poor you.

@jrg what is your question?

@TheX Where can I get Fedora+1?

@jrg you can't it doesn't exist?

11:56 PM

I don't know, that's why I asked.

What is Fedora+1 anyways?

Development version of fedora.

No clue if that's what it's called or not. :P

Explorer

@RolandTaylor POKE

So... like a daily build?

@Explorer hey :D
