<elacheche> :s
<Kilos> nope still same 7
<Kilos> its a big thing i think
<Kilos> i havent been a member long enough for starters
<elacheche> Actually it's a big thing if only 7 are welling to be on that board.. Where is the community :/
<Kilos> nono that is only a 7 member board
<Kilos> also peeps are very busy and the times arent good for most peeps
<elacheche> I know.. But how many person applied to be member of that board?
<Kilos> only us 7 so far
<elacheche> there is 752 ubuntu members all around the world, and only 7 want to be part of that board?
<Kilos> i think its quiete a big responsibilty to take on if you are very busy with work and stuff
<Kilos> dont forget that many have already done it from the begginning hey
<Kilos> and when peeps get involved with lots of other projects they dont have time anymore
<elacheche> Maybe :/
<ishwon> Hello Kilos :-)
<ishwon> Aww. Hello Africa ^^,
<Kilos> hi ishwon  welcome to ubuntu-africa
<ishwon> Greetings from Ish, from the heart of Indian Ocean, Mauritius.
<ishwon> So, how is it going on your side with Ubuntu activities?
<ishwon> I tried reviving IRC users here, but nada. It always fails.
<Kilos> all good here, we are slowly reviving locos that seemed dead
<ishwon> We do have active user groups though. Got a LUGM (Linux User Group of Mauritius), MSCC (Mauritius Software Craftsmanship Community) and MIU (Mauritius Internet Users).
<Kilos> you were looking for stuff to use such as flyers and stuff you can print out
<ishwon> Then some time back I've put energy in setting up Ubuntu Mauritius :-)
<Kilos> yes cyrilb  is here
<ishwon> So far, it's going well.
<ishwon> Yup. Yup. If I could get some designs that would be awesome.
<ishwon> Would save me time working from scratch.
<Kilos> well here so far we have got tunisia active with us
<ishwon> Ahaa... Yes, met @cyrilb once while he was in Mru.
<Kilos> elacheche  was it you that had files that could just be printed for events
<Kilos> see I want all of africa here so we can all help each other
<ishwon> Sure. Sounds like a great idea :-)
<ishwon> Count on my help ;-)
<Kilos> you just have to be patient, because guys in IT all have more work than they can handle
<Kilos> ty for that
<ishwon> I blog about Ubuntu stuffs here => http://hacklog.in/category/linux/ubuntu-linux-mint/
<ishwon> Yeah, of course. I know how it is with work and all.
<Kilos> if you have contact with any users in other african countries in vite them here
<ishwon> Yup. I will.
<Kilos> we in the za loco have stuff for events as well , ill ask there who has the links
<ishwon> Okay, great. If someone could just share the links via the mailing list, that would be awesome.
<ishwon> I might be designing facebook banners during the weekend. I'll share on Github so others could use them too.
<Kilos> you are welcome to visit there as well
<Kilos> us in za love using irc
<Kilos> its how ubuntu was built from the start
<Kilos> cool
<ishwon> IRC was once popular among IT guys here. Then the culture just vanished.
<ishwon> Are you on Twitter?
<Kilos> revive them
<ishwon> Tried several times, doesn't work.
<Kilos> yes but not often @sharpeys
<ishwon> Okay
<Kilos> we also have @ubuntuza that we use to announce things only
<ishwon> Here we got the Linux User Group, a lot of the FOSS activities happen through that group.
<ishwon> I just shoot Ubuntu stuffs through ubuntu-mu.
<Kilos> yeah man i dont know why we cant all just work together to promote linux
<Kilos> if you look at the slexy link in the topic bar you will see how it started
<Kilos> neo31 in tunisia has been helpful, might be him with the flyers stuff
<Kilos> he normally manages to get here once a day or so , so just be patient
<Kilos> hehe
<ishwon> no worries ;-)
<Kilos> and add this channel to your favourites hey
<Kilos> im not hunting again for mu
<ishwon> I'm actually more active on mailing lists (typically the MIU ML for Mauritius). So, if anything urgent is needed regarding ubuntu-mu, just drop me an email :-)
<ishwon> I'll help in.
<Kilos> ill do that thanks. i have your addy now
<ishwon> :-)
<Kilos> ishwon  have you looked at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Materials
<Kilos> and http://spreadubuntu.org/
<Kilos> im waiting for our za stuff
<ishwon> Thanks for the links Kilos. Checking them.
<Kilos> hope they help. thats all official stuff i think
<elacheche> hey again, Kilos can't understand the question and am too lazy to read all the conversation :D can you explain it :D
<Kilos> lol
<Kilos> yes ishwon  is looking for files to download so he caqn print flyers for an event
<elacheche> Ah! I see.. we have a flayer where we describe ubuntu in half side and our loco in the other half side, and in the back side we write the event planing and the event poster.. let me check
<Kilos> ishwon  is from ubuntu mauritius
<elacheche> nice to meet you ishwon and good luck for the event :D
<elacheche> I saw the thread
<elacheche> sorry ishwon can't find the file right now, I'll send it by mail this afternoon.. I have a backup in my personal laptop, is that OK?
<ishwon> Hey, sorry folks. I was AFK. I'm still in office ;-) Got to work some times :D
<ishwon> That's cool elacheche :-)
<ishwon> Thanks in advance
<elacheche> you're welcome, am @work too x) that's why I don't have the file here
<elacheche> is that you ishwon https://www.linkedin.com/in/ishsookun ?
<ishwon> Yup. That's me.
<elacheche> :)
<Kilos> ishwon  look here http://spreadubuntu.org/en/get-materials/poster?page=3&__utmt_~1=1
<Kilos> if thats not all our stuff then another link will still be forth coming
<ishwon> Yeah, a couple few of the posters look interesting. I pulled the source.
<ishwon> Thanks :-)
