[ubuntu-uk] ubuntu-uk-marketing launchpad

[Chris Rowson]

OK,

To kick off/demo the usage of launchpad as our storage/development
medium I uploaded the leaflet I made originally to a branch of our
leaflet project.

To upload your stuff to launchpad you'll need bazaar. I wrote a
tutorial on using it a wee while ago for anyone who isn't familiar
with it:

http://www.justuber.com/blog/2007/04/25/how-to-use-bazaar-and-launchpad-for-hosting-your-code/

So, basically - if you wanted to create a new branch following the
non-techie-user-leaflet blueprint, you'd type the following **after
working your way through the tutorial above**:

bzr push sftp://christopherrowson@bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-uk-marketing/ubuntu-uk-leaflets/non-techie-user-leaflet

To learn how to pull that code down to your computer so you can work
on it, or merge your own changes into it take a look here:

http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/bzr.dev/tutorial.htm

I think we could do to track changes in text by uploading a plain text
version of the leaflets too. I didn't have time tonight to muck about
with it though.

I must admit, I'm no expert with bazaar and I'm guessing it'll take us
some time to get used to, but all in all I think it'll be really
helpful in the long run.

Cheers

Chris
