Everybody who wants to become a member: please prepare a 3 line description of your work for Ubuntu so far, what you want to do and your vision about Ubuntu.

kolcvk:)10:15
makoSeveas: you're up10:15
makoSeveas: what needs to change?10:15
Seveasok then, I've taken over Treenaks' position as leader lately10:15
makoalright10:15
makoTreenaks: you around?10:15
Seveasunfortunately not10:16
makoSeveas: while we're on the topic, is it worth talking about the two dutch teams?10:16
smurfixSeveas: tell us a bit about sourself?10:16
makoand what is going to happen with it10:16
Seveasmako, not yet, there are still some struggles going on after initial success10:16
Yann2mako > Josh Kress and I agreed, Ubuntu marketing effort and Ubuntu europe topics should be merged10:16
Seveasbasically the 'others' refuse to cooperate10:16
makoSeveas: yeah, why don't you talk Treenaks sounds good10:17
Kamionwhat's the reasoning there?10:17
=== ogra guesses the 'others' say that too
kinjoomako: approved, merge topics!10:17
=== mako nods to kinjoo
SeveasKamion, ubuntu-linux.nl is part of alleslinux.com and as such wants no cooperation with official teams10:17
Seveasbut they do get on our nerves by not even linking to the official dutch dite10:17
Seveassite*10:17
=== mako is alright with overlapping loco teams but would like to avoid them
mdkeSeveas, do they even answer your mails now?10:18
Yann2CC agenda updated.10:18
Seveasmdke, yes, finally after 2 months 10:18
makoSeveas: well, as the team with official blessing.. you guys should play teh nice guy10:18
mdkeprogress :)10:18
Seveasmako, we do :)10:18
makoi hvae a dialog with the guy from the second team and can help to put pressure on either side if you want10:19
Seveasmako, let's take that out of the meeting, this would be off-topic for now...10:19
makoalright10:19
makoSeveas: anything else to report with the team?10:19
Seveasyeah10:19
Seveaswe're goinf to have a weekend-long translation spurt to translate a lot of documentation10:19
dholbachcool :)10:20
mdke+++10:20
makoSeveas: awesome10:20
SeveasAnd the idea sounded so good to me that I want to spread it :)10:20
makoSeveas: you should write that up and send it sounder10:20
Seveasmako, will do once the plans are final10:20
makotry to use it as a model for the other teams10:20
makocool!10:20
makoSeveas: anything else?10:20
Seveasnot unless someone has questions10:20

ubuntu_demonKamion: often I just have to tell people to take a look at the ubuntuguide first10:29
=== Seveas suggests: more forum people in here during CC meetings is forum people want to be members. ubuntu_demon can you please contact other forum staff and moderators to be here in such occasions
mdkeSeveas, +10:29

elmoyeah10:45
Seveasanybody want to vouch for/vote against adomanski ?10:45

Yann2hope this won't be _too_ long.11:05
kinjooYann2 go ahead11:06
makoYann2: yeah, lets hope :)11:06
Yann2so some paste..11:06
Yann2The french team got some hosting problem a few weeks ago.11:06
Yann2We asked mako for help... we were told we would have to find some hosting ourselves, as the linode proposal was not enough for our website.11:06
mdzMez: there should be an announcement on the backports.ubuntuforums.org page pointing to the new page as well11:06
ubuntu_demonIMO it should wide spread that backports is official. This is really important for users I think11:06
mdzMez: are you able to make changes there?11:06
Yann2We figured out on #ubuntu-locoteams that the German team had some problems too, so we decided to initiate a common fundraising program for both teams.11:06
Yann2It worked well, we got plenty of donations, and lots of companies got in touch with us proposing some help, in many domains.11:06
Yann2We need an official status for that. We were thinking of creating an Ubuntu Europe foundation, to promote Ubuntu in Europe, and to share amongst european teams what we might be able to get for free/buy.11:06
\shogra: should be on planet...11:06
Yann2We think sharing the costs for stuff(flyers, tee shirts, hosting...) would be cheaper if they're shared. And btw the others teams could benefit of the propositions that have been made to Ubuntu-fr.11:06
ogramdz, its also on the forums11:06
Yann2It'd be an Not-for-profit organisation in France, just like the Mozilla Fundation; smurfix and I already propose ourselves as founders.11:06
Yann2We're not asking Canonical or Ubuntu for money (well we won't refuse any donation, though :) ). We just want Ubuntu Foundation to recognize the Ubuntu Europe Foundation (or whatever it'll be called) as one of it's affiliates.11:06
Yann2It won't replace any of the local Community Teams. In fact I hope it'll provide communication between them.11:06
Yann2[that's it, sorry for flooding :/] 11:06
mdzMez: backports.ubuntuforums.org doesn't even mention the new repository11:07
Kamionthe Ubuntu Foundation is not really a properly active organisation yet; we have not yet had a board meeting as distinct from Ubuntu Community Council meetings, for example11:07
makoJanC: 11:07
mdzKamion: the foundation already has a wikipedia entry though ;-)11:07
makomdz: really, i should to read it11:08
makoi know very little about it :)11:08
\shwow11:08
KamionUbuntu Europe also seems like a slightly strange name given that the Ubuntu Foundation is, if based anywhere, based in Europe :-)11:08
Yann2btw,  just like the Mozilla Fundation; ->  just like the Mozilla Europe Fundation;11:08
makoi believe i suggested that already11:08
KamionMozilla is much more a US organisation due to its Netscape roots, though11:08
Treenaksbetter late than never.. I'm here11:08
makoYann2: well.. before we go about creating local versions of the foundation,l we might want to, yknow, create the foundation11:08
ograhey Treenaks 11:08
KamionCanonical's headquarters are in the UK, although we're fairly global11:08
Treenakshi ogra 11:08
elmoKamion: IM damn it11:09
elmo.gov.uk might be listening ;)11:09
Yann2mako > i thought it was already done.11:09
\shKamion: hmmm...it's a _canonical_ location, right? ,-)11:09
makobefore we create splinter or support organizations, we should try to get the foundation really off the ground11:09
Seveasmako, agreed11:09
=== mdke agrees
=== Seveas thinks: let's put this on hold until that happened
makoYann2: if the paperwork is done, then that's it.. i haven't heard anything about it and i'm supposedly one of the advisors11:09
Yann2also, we really need to set up that _now_.11:10
elmoYann2: why?11:10
makoi think we should give the ubuntu foundation some time to figure out what it can and cannot do11:10
Yann2we got plenty of offers we can not accept because of our unofficial status11:10
mdkei also have misgivings about the wisdow of creating a splinter of the foundation run by volunteers rather than by canonical employees11:10
Yann2and we need them11:10
makoYann2: listen, if you guys have people that want to donate to your locos11:10
makoYann2: but need a charity to do so, we can provide that place11:10
Yann2as a french association?11:10
SeveasYann2, is that 'french' required? 11:11
makoYann2: when i said that we as the foundation probably can't go around buying loco's hardware,  that didn't meant that we wouldn't be able to accept and deploy earmarked for locos11:11
ogramdke, s/canonical/foundation :)11:11
\shmako: hmm..i think it's more in the sense of "Gentoo Foundation" and "Gentoo e.V." in Germany. 11:11
makoYann2: in any situation, i really think we need to let the parent be created and get off the ground before we create spliter organizations11:11
smurfixsome countries do require charities to be local :-/11:11
makosmurfix: yes, that's true11:11
Yann2Seveas > yeap, there is some taxes issues11:11
Kamionso if it's solely a French organisation (for e.g. tax rebate purposes) it should be called Ubuntu France surely ...11:12
\shsmurfix: charities == e.V.?11:12
makoso, if what you want is a specific non-profit for a couple loco-teams, that's fine11:12
Yann2there will be one, too.11:12
=== mako nods to Kamion
smurfix\sh: gemeinntziger eV11:12
\shsmurfix: yes11:12
makobut that doesn't need to become the ubuntu foundation europe11:12
Yann2the fact is, we're collecting money together with ubuntu-de11:12
Yann2we got a common bank account...11:12
\shsmurfix: hard to establish for these things here in germany...as I saw with gentoo e.v.11:12
makoYann2: ok.. if you're going to create an organization, there is going to be a lot involved11:12
Yann2it should not be called ubuntu-FR11:12
Yann2mako > i know, i'm working on it for a lot of time now.11:13
mdkemako, ++11:13
Kamionum - Europe > France + Germany ;-)11:13
makoeverything from trademark licenses to relationships with the ubuntu foundation which is not even off the ground11:13
Yann2Kamion > i got in touch with MANY people, many locoteam leaders. It's not just germany and france.11:13
makoKamion: depends on who you are talking to :)11:13
elmoYann2: that's nice and all, but the foundation IS based in Europe11:13
makoYann2: i don't think this proposal is ready for the council11:14
Yann2what is the ubuntu foundation supposed to do?11:14
makoYann2: these are questions we are still figuring out11:14

adomanskiyou see we want something controlled directly by the communities11:14
makoadomanski: he wants to see a foundation to buy his locos servers11:15
Yann2mako > about every locoteam leader in europe knows about ubuntu europe11:15
Yann2they, until now, agreed there should be that organisation11:15
SeveasYann2, s/that/a/11:15
mdkeno, our team is not agreed about it11:15
adomanskimako: and to do marketing and organizing stuff11:15
Seveasand the Ubuntu foundation may just as well fill that void11:15
makoalright11:15
=== highvolt1ge [~Jono@196.36.161.235] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
makolets stop this here11:15
Yann2I got some contacts, including HP, promising to give us servers, money, once we got official.11:15
makoYann2: if hp is trying to donate servers for european locos, we can accept those through the normal ubuntu foundation11:16
makoYann2: you haven't mentioned this to me in any of our private mails11:16
Yann2mako > you didn't answer on irc11:16
makoYann2: you were merely talking in terms of us buying you hardware11:16
mdkedon't forget there is a significant amount of mutual learning that we can do via the existing setup: we have a common irc channel and a mailing list.11:16
Yann2i tried a couple of times.11:16
makoYann2: i've been traveling11:16
mdkethe existing structure can do much11:16
Yann2that was before we got the money :/11:16
makoYann2: you should have sent email11:16
makoin any situation11:16
makothis is a *huge* issue11:16
Yann2mdke told me to come debate that here.11:17
makowe've got to figure something out in regards to the ubuntu foundation11:17
makoright11:17
makoi'm going to suggest we create a new meeting 11:17
makoto just talk about this11:17
Yann2fine to me.11:17
makoprobably with jane silber, myself, you, smurfix, mark, etc11:17
\shactually, I don't like the idea...cause it gives too much of troubles..as I realised in the past with my gentoo project11:17
makoand whoever else11:17
makoYann2: write up u a draft agenda of issues you need covered11:18
KamionI'm in complete agreement with mako here BTW; the foundation seems like a much better structure for dealing with donations like this, since it's going to be doing a certain amount of that kind of thing anyway11:18
Seveasmako, 'this' being thr ubuntu foundation + Yann2's plans i hope...11:18
Yann2btw, it's just about copyrights. we don't really need any help from the ubuntu foundation.11:18
elmome too11:18
makowe may need to postpone this until we know what the foundation can and can't do11:18
elmoYann2: dude, you're using the Ubuntu name11:18
mdke\sh, complete agreement: i don't think the ramifications of this project have been thought through11:18
makoif that doesn't fit your timescale, that may just be life11:18
elmoyou absolutely need help from the Foundation and/or Canonical11:18
makobetter to not screw up at the beginning when setting this up11:18
Yann2elmo > As I am with Ubuntu fr :)11:18
makoalright11:18
\shYann2: dealing with trademarks and copyrights is a quite difficult game...and you will pay a hell of a lot for lawyers..11:18
makoYann2: send me a proposed agenda.. lets continue this later :)11:19
Yann2ok.11:19
\shYann2: and this money is better to be spend in freedom toasters for ubuntu in europe then anything else11:19
kinjoo+1 for the seperate meeting. this needs to be solved11:19
KamionYann2: the locoteams are something we've been doing for a long time. you're proposing to set up basically an alternative to the Ubuntu Foundation, which is a very different matter11:19
makolet's move on11:19
makoubuntufutureproject11:19
Yann2Kamion > it's not really an alternative :)11:19
smurfix\sh: don't worry ;-)11:19
Yann2we won't be developing ubuntu11:19
Yann2well.11:19
adomanskiThank you Mako.11:19
adomanskiDid everybody read: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFutureProject11:19
\shsmurfix: hehe :) I had my experience :(11:20
makoi did11:20
KamionUbuntuFutureProject seems like something that should just be developed and tried out; does it need to be brought to the CC for a particular reason?11:20
makoadomanski: it's unclear what you want to do and why you think you need CC approval11:20
makoKamion: what kamion said, except less clear11:20
Seveasadomanski, the Ubuntu brainstorming sessions take place at the conferences11:20
adomanskimako: first it was Yann2 idea to bring this up to CC. 2. I would like to see this as a part of the official homepage11:21
Kamionit seems like a reasonable thing to try, although inevitably whether developers find that it's an efficient use of time to go to it for ideas is entirely dependent on how good the design/implementation is11:21
makoSeveas: well, making that accessible to folks not a conferences seems like a plan11:21
=== infinito is away: Estoy ocupado
mdkeadomanski, if it works, maybe you can get it written up on the website11:21
Kamionadomanski: it'd have to be developed first before we could commit to that11:21
makoadomanski: the work flow here is basically to build something unofficially and then, once it is de facto offical, add it11:21
ogramako, i thought thats why the udu wiki is still open for adding stuff11:21
Kamionadomanski: we'll also have a much better basis for having a conversation once there's something to look at :)11:22
adomanskimako: ok mako.11:22
makoadomanski: build something compelling.. you don't need our permission and then come to us when you think it's solid11:22
adomanskiKamion: I know it myself.11:22
makoof course11:22
makothat said11:22
makoif you're interested in helping out with this, you should work with adomanski :)11:22
makoi agree that the ideapool could really be replaced with something better11:22
Kamionso since it's something you're trying to build with the express purpose of being useful to the development community, you'd need to make sure to get feedback from the development community pretty regularly11:23
adomanskiI just didn't want to spend a week of work to create something nobody wants11:23
\shis not a wiki the best place for ideas?11:23
Kamionotherwise it becomes yet another pile of stuff nobody looks at11:23
adomanski\sh: wikis are very bad for discussions11:23
mdke\sh, people sometimes don't look at it11:23
\shmdke: but this is not a problem of a wiki11:23
dholbachadomanski: a wiki page with an announce on the mailing list maybe?11:23
KamionI do tend to think that ubuntu-devel@lists is a much better place for discussions11:23
=== mako nods to Kamion
\shadomanski: u think? enhance moin moin :)11:24
adomanskidevelopers discuss their ideas on mailing lists. but this is about _users_ guys11:24
Kamionwiki pages are better for making sure stuff doesn't get lost11:24
mdke\sh, it is to a certain extent11:24
Kamionadomanski: you want to get developers' attention, you got to work *with* developers11:24
mdkedifferent tools work for different things11:24
Kamionadomanski: and you're talking explicitly about third-party developers here.11:24
Seveasadomanski, if you want to involve users in development ===> MOTU11:24
\shmdke: but wikis were invented as a idea well...scratch board for ideas and comments on this..11:24
KamionSeveas: not if it's about fundamental bits of the OS11:25
SeveasKamion, true11:25
ograadomanski, you should just build a communication bridge to MOTU11:25
Kamionwhich IdeaPool often is11:25
adomanskiKamion: we need developers attention, sure. But I think users should give their ideas. Ubuntu is about users.11:25
makoalright11:25
makolets move on11:25
makokinjoo: hey, you had a subpoint11:25
Kamionadomanski: there is no point doing anything if you dismiss developers' needs, e.g. time constraints11:25
makohttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/JoshKress/PromotingUbuntu11:25
ograKamion, i thought for the fundamental things the udu wiki spec process was still the preferred way...11:26
\shadomanski: that's what motus are for....listen to the users, improve ubuntu linux, and put it after some time to main views 11:26
Kamionogra: yeah11:26
kinjoojo, we should discuss some promotion issuesa11:26
ograso we alrady have such a process in place...11:26
kinjoofirst of all how about a ml for those dicussions?11:26
ograits just not used..11:26
makokinjoo: yeah, lets do it11:26
adomanski\sh: Yeah nice. And users want to scratch down stugg.11:26
adomanskistuff11:26
ubuntu_demonregarding promotion .. I'm discussing an unofficial Ubuntu Commercial on the forums (see my wiki)11:26
\shadomanski: yes...see wikipedia, or wiki.ubuntu...so many pages from plain users ...11:27
kinjoothen, how should deal with issues when collaborating with other projects?11:27
kinjooas this includes the foundation obviously I can wait for this to settle down11:28
SeveasAnother thing about promotion: is The Fridge ever going to happen?11:28
ograSeveas, good question11:28
adomanski\sh: You guys are developers (I guess), _you_ can use mailing lists. Did you ever think about how complicated it is for a user to keep track of everything without knowing how mailing lists work? Does not seem so to me. 11:28
makokinjoo: yeah, to the continue the meeting11:29
Seveasadomanski, we have moved on already please discuss that in private11:29
mdke--> bed, night all11:29
\shadomanski: lets take this to motu or somewhere else...:) 11:29
\shnight mdke11:29
adomanski\sh alright11:29
makokinjoo: to continue the whole "putting this offf"11:29
ubuntu_demonmdke: good night11:29
makosince this isn't a concrete proposal yet, it's probably best to put it off11:30
makoi think the thinking is good11:30
kinjoook, as soon as we have a ml for this, we can discuss that issues on that ml11:30
\shmako: can I shortly interrupt with an important statement for channel ops?11:30
makothis is good thinking and writing.. but that makes sense11:30
Kamionso I think it's hard to answer the visibility of Canonical's logo stuff etc. until we have an idea what the Ubuntu Foundation's position is11:30
makodon't wait for the mailing lists11:30
makoplease go ahead and use sounder for th is11:30
makoprove the need for the mailing list first11:30
makothere is nothing stopping you from going ahead with this n ow11:31
kinjoomako ok!11:31
makokinjoo: awesome :)11:31
makokinjoo: thanks dude11:31
makoi can tell you've been thinking about this stuff11:31
makoand i appreciate the work and thought that you are putting into this11:31
Seveasyeah, sounder@ is a great place to get this thing started11:31
makoalright11:31
makois there any other business11:31
kinjoomako can we use #ubuntu-meeting as well as long as it is not used for meeting?11:31
makoIS THERE ANY OTHER BUSINESS11:31
\shyes11:31
makokinjoo: yes, that's fine11:32
ubuntu_demon1 question .. what is sounder ?11:32
\shYES11:32
Seveasmako, yes, \sh wants :)11:32
Seveasubuntu_demon, another mailinglist11:32
makoubuntu_demon: it's the everything-is-on-topic list11:32
\shok....I know some channel mods/ops are listening now11:32
Kamionif you want to ask questions of Canonical about sponsorship and such, it's probably best to ask Canonical directly11:32
makoubuntu_demon: mostly for social non-development or support issues11:32
ubuntu_demonok thnx11:32
mako\sh: right11:32
mako\sh: go ahead11:32
Kamionmako: info@canonical.com would be the correct address for that, right?11:32

\shWe had some issues with "Logging ubuntu-Channels" without mentioning it in the topic for newbies11:32
makoyes11:32
makoemail info@canonical.com11:32
\shplease put in your topics of all channels which are logged: "This Channel is Logged: Please visit <url here> for the log"11:33
Seveas\sh, includeing #ubuntu?11:33
SeveasThe topic is crowded already there...11:33
\shSeveas: including...(actually I don't know if it's written there)11:33
Seveasand for the locoteams locobot announces it11:34
Seveaslocoteam-channels i mean11:34
\shbut this is really important...cause logging without knowledge of the user is not nice11:34
Seveas\sh, I disagree11:34
\shSeveas: #ubuntu-de didn't11:34
dholbachnobody reads the topic11:34
SeveasIRC channels are always logged by clients11:34
\shSeveas: but not on the web in public11:34
SeveasTrue, but I don't really see the need to abuse the topic for it...11:35
KamionI really don't want something that verbose in #ubuntu-devel's topic; the space is valuable11:35
KamionI wouldn't object to just the URL11:35
SeveasKamion, just like in here :)11:35
=== mako nods to Kamion yes
Seveasthat might be a good idea though11:35
\shKamion: ubuntu-devel is something special...but local ubuntu channels should mention it, cause they're not logged in that way like #ubuntu-meeting11:35
\shor #ubuntu-devel11:36
\shI don't mind...but some people are not writing good about it...and the written word is a strong weapon11:36
Seveastrue11:36

Seveassince i'm the topic-gardener in #ubuntu anyway, I'll put it in11:37
