[04:10] for example, comunication between latin american LoCo [04:10] ajam [04:10] you mean because of the language barrier?

[04:12] and in the past week === fernando [n=fernando@unaffiliated/musb] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:12] maybe some centralized place wher everyone can put what they're working on [04:12] and what they've done [04:13] the teams have joined in a very nice way but without folloing a blueprint or previous experience [04:13] there is of course a real danger of fragmentation in the sense of [04:13] beuno: sounds nice [04:13] spanish speaking teams growing into a kind of isle [04:13] that way before starting a proyect you can check out if someone is already puruing it, and help them out [04:13] that doesn't communicate enough with the non-spanish speaking world [04:14] looksaus interesting that you mention [04:14] how would you stimulate these teams to communicate with the rest of the world? [04:14] I am new to the loCo team work === hugo_ [n=hugo@lns-bzn-61-82-250-111-40.adsl.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:14] that would be a great idea, group LoCo's by language and have some sort of intercomunication between them, someone willing to translate what's going on [04:14] and I am here representing my loco [04:14] these are latin america teams: Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Chile, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Espan~a, Mexico, Peru, Venezuela === terrex [n=terrex@84-122-63-17.onocable.ono.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:15] but also, Spain, which happens to be in a different continent [04:15] when I brought the question to jono [04:15] so how do we think we can improve communication? [04:15] it seems to me that geographically close teams should start out be just engaging in communication [04:15] i'm with you effie_jayx [04:16] jono, we need to follow a path to better communication within ourselves (loco teams in lat america) [04:16] and we turned to you to ask if there is a [04:16] effie_jayx: how many teams are in latin america? [04:16] aprecendet... === Yann2 [n=Yann4@88.134.59.222] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:16] around 11 === Seeker` [n=cjo20@ip-62-105-182-26.dsl.twang.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:17] and we need to keep ourselves oriented to what the loCo's in europe are doing [04:17] effie_jayx, would it make sense to create comm infrastructure based upon common language, rather than geography? [04:17] right, so there 11 teams in the same refion? === givre [n=Florent@APuteaux-152-1-55-72.w82-120.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === j_ack_ [n=rudi@p508D926A.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:17] region === beuno just found out the spanish team seems to think they englobe all latin america "Spain and Latin America" [04:17] because that seems to be the barrier not to participate directly in the general loco list right? [04:18] looksaus, part of it... yes... [04:18] I agree, language is the barrier, not geographical location [04:18] yes [04:18] agree [04:18] the real key here is language [04:19] I count 8 LoCo teams listed that speak spanish === kalon33 [n=kalon33@i02v-62-34-145-118.d4.club-internet.fr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:19] the main idea is to coordinate between latin american LoCo [04:19] I think we need to think of ways in which we can unite similar languages but maintain their own location [04:19] spanish-speaking LoCo's ;D [04:19] we don't want language connections to fragement the general community though [04:20] jono, maybe if you remember the discussion we had last week [04:20] we can grab some solution from there [04:20] jono, that's why I think maybe we can have ppl in charge of comunicating to the other languages [04:20] jono, we want to help out send the message... [04:20] summing up every 2 weeks or something like that [04:20] jono, nejode and I come from the venezuela team... [04:20] jono, and there ... people have just begun to discover all the LoCo team related stuff. [04:21] jono: just like ubuntu-zh includes ubuntu-tw, ubntu-cn and ubuntu-hk ? [04:21] new vs arpoved and the benefits of being aproved [04:21] like... if you create a mailing list for spanish speaking teams, add a header or footer to lure users to the main international list [04:21] I don't think that you *need* to have all spanish speaking ppl in one mailing list [04:21] and the benefits of being talknig to people that have the same issues all around the world ... not to invent the wheel again [04:22] sorry reading up [04:22] I am in the office today, keep getting called [04:22] beuno, I'm just suggesting how a communications channel between spanish speaking locoteams should be closely connected to the international one [04:23] looksaus, ooh, sorry [04:23] looksaus, most certainly ... we will look into ir [04:23] like have *regional* LoCo meetings [04:23] and then International [04:23] there might be more ways than this header/footer idea for a mailing list [04:23] time ago, I proposed my Spanish Planet Ubuntu idea (https://launchpad.net/products/ubuntu-website/+ticket/1664) to improve comunication between latinamerican LoCo Teams [04:23] so one representative from each region (language) meet [04:23] mruiz, very good idea! [04:23] looksaus, you are right... and I hope you can understand we want to all stay put to the international comunity [04:24] of course, just thinking about ways to do so [04:24] looksaus, but not as 1 from chile ,, 2 from venezuela, 3 from argentina ) but as a group === lophylap [n=dsulliva@206-248-152-7.dsl.teksavvy.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:24] right [04:24] so we need to divide this problem into the language and country level [04:25] brb phone [04:25] so we can better pass down the information that comes from the mothership (locoteams) :D [04:25] yes, sounds like the most reasonable [04:25] oh, loco meeting.. damn, totally forgot about that one [04:26] so [04:26] back [04:26] lol [04:27] backok [04:27] I think there is a very obvious need for language connections [04:27] looksaus, I am really intereste in your insight and this is a question that came up 2 weeks a go in the LoCo teams presentaion by elkbuntu [04:27] it makes sense for those with similar languages to work together [04:27] maybe all same speaking language teams vote for 1 representative among them [04:27] but isnt that just a translation effort? [04:27] all the chinese language LoCo has already solved this problem :p [04:28] BlueT_: how? [04:28] i think not just a translation effort... lots of people don't have the skills to express themselves in EN [04:28] jono: we had aleady have our channel and mailing list [04:28] jono, part of the problem is translation, but part of it might be centralizing information (and this applies to all LoCo's) [04:28] beuno: hang on a sec, centralising translated docs? [04:28] or all docs? === beuno scrolls [04:29] jono: geo-depend problem are solved by LoCo channels and mailing lists [04:29] maybe some centralized place wher everyone can put what they're working on [04:29] beuno: thats the ubuntu wiki === jderose [n=jderose@host-72-174-64-23.gdj-co.client.bresnan.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:29] jono, ajam... [04:29] beuno, and the locoteams mailing list [04:29] and for generic loco documentation, that does in the loco knowledge base [04:29] looksaus: indeed [04:29] jono: ubuntu-zh channel and mailing list are for all chanese LoCo [04:29] but is there somewhere I can go and see "ok, I'm not going to translate the CoC because the venezuela team already did" [04:30] jono: to solved language-depend problems [04:30] beuno: nope, but this is more of a rosetta problem [04:30] I don't think we can solve this at a policy level [04:30] jono, the problem is getting those who are not comfortable speaking/reading EN to see what happens in the rest of the world === EmxBA [n=emx@unaffiliated/emxba] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:30] it is indeed a problem, but I think we need to feed more content through rosetta and allow loco teams to subscribe to languages [04:30] and to push out what happens in theirs [04:30] jono, at the same time it is our issue... cuz my Loco === LoudMouthMan [n=nik@82-68-164-22.dsl.in-addr.zen.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:31] looksaus: I understand, and I agree [04:31] well, at a policy level what I think might solve it is having "regional" (language) meetings, and have 1 or 2 ppl represent them in international meetings [04:31] defeating the language barrier [04:31] beuno, we're too much a volunteer group to rely on that [04:31] looksaus: but then again, why would a french speaker in canada care about what is happening in france? [04:31] bueno, in Chilean Wiki we have the spanish CoC [04:32] mruiz, http://www.uluga.com.ar/wiki/CoC [04:32] ;D [04:32] see what I mean [04:32] jono, because it might actually be a very good idea that is also interesting to someone in Denmark [04:32] jono: it had been worked for a year :) [04:32] bueno, http://wiki.ubuntu-cl.org/FirmandoElCodigoDeConductaComo [04:32] looksaus: I think this is too big a problem to solve with an open process like we have - there is no way to update locos of interest with informaton that is specific to a particular context [04:32] unless I am not understanding the problem? [04:33] BlueT_: what has? explain what you did [04:33] jono, the proble goes beyond the language... [04:33] 23:29 < BlueT_> jono: geo-depend problem are solved by LoCo channels and mailing lists [04:33] 23:29 < BlueT_> jono: ubuntu-zh channel and mailing list are for all chanese LoCo [04:33] mruiz, oh, we translated the CoC itself, you translated "how to sign it" [04:33] 23:30 < BlueT_> jono: to solved language-depend problems [04:33] bueno, http://wiki.ubuntu-cl.org/CodigoDeConducta/Version1.0.1 [04:33] BlueT_: right, so problems for a specific team are solved on their mailing list and channel? [04:33] ;D [04:33] jono: yes [04:33] then we both duplicated efforts on that [04:34] effie_jayx: where else is the problem? [04:34] jono: and we're building a co-maintain wiki site [04:34] BlueT_: right, and every team has their own list and channel? what is the problem? === BroncoInCaliforn [n=mark@adsl-70-132-1-219.dsl.snfc21.sbcglobal.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:34] jono, I am thinking people are not understanding the ubuntu culture ... [04:34] so is the problem we are discussing, how we solve two teams with the same language translating the same things, because they never knew they were doing it? [04:34] or they are living it in their own way... which is good [04:34] I think having a language-based list and channel doesn't solve anything if it's not organized to take advantage of it [04:34] but in my loco [04:35] things were being done truth a lug [04:35] if the problem is the one I listed above, then that is a Rosetta issue, and not something we can solve === GnuKemist [n=omaciel@ubuntu/member/gnukemist] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:35] jono: approved LoCo members will hang on both side (LoCo channel and co-maintain channel) [04:35] I think we can make strides to improve communication between teams where possible, and I like the idea of having a general mailing list for languages [04:35] which help keepping it a float for a while ... but not counting with some language councelor really made it difficul [04:35] BlueT_: sorry, co-maintain channel? [04:36] my understanding of the problem is: x spanish speaking locoteams have a lot of information to share, but few of the members are good EN speakers [04:36] looksaus, that sums it up [04:36] so a lot of information doesn't come down from the locoteams list, and doesn't go up to the locoteams list [04:36] jono: ooops.. i don't know how to explain it... just like #ubuntu-some-language [04:36] BlueT_: right, so you mean an IRC channel for a language [04:37] jono: core members of ubuntu-tw, ubuntu-cn, and ubuntu-hk will all on both #ubuntu-CC and #ubuntu-ZH (ZongHua) [04:37] looksaus: right, so the problem is how to better integrate non-EN speakers into the community [04:37] looksaus, this is the real language problem! [04:37] absolutely [04:37] jono, yessss : [04:37] :D [04:37] jono, exactly what I had in mind [04:38] jono: those people share informations on the channel [04:38] so what I was proposing was to have some spanish communication channel that stimulates those spanish speakers who _are_ proficient in english to make sure information flows from and to the main (EN speaking) channel === j_ack [n=rudi@p508D926A.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:39] that is a good idea [04:39] looksaus: I agree its a problem, but its impossible to solve - there is no process or structure we can create to get everyone involved, other than manding english as the normal language for communication, which we do now === Flik [n=Matt@d207-81-186-112.bchsia.telus.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:39] looksaus: I think that it would be difficult to have ambassadors who speak english to feed non-english content back upstream [04:39] jono, maybe part of the LoCo instructions on how to manage a LoCo can intruct that team leaders should have fluent communication between them [04:39] jono: we coulda ll learn esperanto... === seanh [i=seanh@SDF.LONESTAR.ORG] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:40] jono, not formally appointed people [04:40] I think we should encourage each loco team to have an english speaker though [04:40] once they are in communication then the rest of the info will flow by itself [04:40] you know, it sucks that we have to always talk in english for a bunch of people, but there is no other way around it [04:41] pruhust [04:41] right now we require english as the language, but I think we only require english for interaction with the wider loco team project === EtienneG [n=etienne@modemcable218.212-201-24.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:41] so the loco can talk entirely in their own language, but only need to use english when talking to the wider project [04:41] jono, we are not bothered by all the English... believe me ... [04:41] effie_jayx: right [04:42] jono, 75 % of the content on the internet is in English [04:42] jono: absolutly [04:42] I don't think that's where the problem should be solved, I think we need to make sure somehow the information gets passed around enough [04:42] beuno: what information and passed where? === seanh [i=seanh@SDF.LONESTAR.ORG] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:42] jono, no matter how you turn it, a spanish speaking channel is going to grow anyway [04:42] looksaus: I never said I didnt want that? [04:43] I am happy for any language channel to grow, thats fine === carlitos-ve [i=carlitos@200.8.30.242] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Me] [04:43] looksaus: just register it from ChanServ [04:43] no, of course not, but the thing we should do is make sure the relevant information discussed there gets passed around [04:43] looksaus, but people could keep an eye on it... and make shure the efforts for streamlining things in loCo's around the wolrd don't leave the spanish people behind [04:43] stimulate that [04:43] jono, if all the spanish speaking LoCo's have some sort of *standarized* communication then at least they all know what's going on between them. They're always going to be english speaking memebers that will bring those issues up in the wider project of the LoCo's [04:43] exactly what I'm trying to suggest practival solutions for [04:43] looksaus: sure, and again, I agree, but how do we do that? we can't just assign people to do it for us, it never works, so how do we do it in a natural way? [04:44] jono, like we discussed for not fragmenting newsletter and active core for 1 loco... [04:44] yeap === Cturtle [n=Cturtle@a213-84-50-38.adsl.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:44] looksaus: what do you mean? [04:44] 1 member per LoCo to comunicate with all the rest of same-language speaking ones [04:44] one useful step would be to add a header/footer to every mailing list message of this spanish list [04:44] sorry, I think I have missed bits of discussion here [04:44] that's all [04:44] that encourages participation to the intl list [04:45] right [04:45] clearly pointing to the intl list in the mailing list definition [04:45] things like that === PriceChild [n=pricechi@unix0.york.ac.uk] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:45] I think in the project now, it is clear that locos should be reading loco-contacts === givre [n=Florent@APuteaux-152-1-55-72.w82-120.abo.wanadoo.fr] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [04:46] SUSE 10.2 FOR LIVE [04:46] j/k [04:46] looksaus: what do you mean for the newsletter? === Sapote [n=guillote@200.68.214.35] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:46] err, we assembled a list of +-100 people who were not interested in following the intense communication on the locoteam list [04:47] but they were interested in ubuntu related activities in Belgium [04:47] ahhh, the -announce thing [04:47] yes [04:47] right, I am with you [04:47] sorry === jono is going nuts! :P [04:47] :) [04:47] join the club :p === sistpoty [n=sistpoty@ubuntu/member/sistpoty] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:47] :-D [04:47] Yea guys thinking about adding a Slab menu for Feisty? [04:47] *You [04:48] how about having a LoCo regional meeting to discuss this, manually contact all of them, and see what ideas popup? [04:48] beuno, sounds ok === bob-lad [n=rob@83.67.64.230] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:48] yea, that will make things easier [04:48] well I think the discussion of -announce lists is something we could discuss at the next meeting [04:48] and it will solve a lot of things, including the timezone issue === binary2k2 [n=binary2k@unaffiliated/binary2k2] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:49] ok (just mentioned it because of similarities with the native language loco comm channels) [04:49] I think a general -announce list may be a good idea [04:49] for the loco teams, that is [04:50] ok [04:50] jono, can we vote for meeting date and hour? [04:50] my concern is that if every loco has an -announce list, we balloon the number of lists, and it may fragment discussion, unless each -announce list can only have a single poster === lguerra [n=lguerra@201.236.223.89] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === anto9us [n=anthony@cpc1-ptal1-0-0-cust444.swan.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:51] mruiz: nope, we set them fortnightly [04:51] :-( [04:51] mruiz: so the next one is two weeks today [04:51] jono, that's what I'm thinking, one person per LoCo [04:51] jono, maybe better keep this for next meeting... getting close to going overtime... === ubuntu_demon [n=depjayds@s5592b629.adsl.wanadoo.nl] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [04:51] ?

[05:06] we also want to set a timetable for the expansion of the CC === geser [n=michael@dialin107214.justdsl.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:07] sabdfl: are there other CC members somewhere? [05:07] looking at the agenda, there's an item missing, which is the proposal of seveas as a CC Secretary, a new role [05:07] seveaz: colin and I are here [05:07] ;-) [05:07] mako was around, he should be here shortly [05:07] elmo: merci and hi [05:07] mako was on a call with us a second ago [05:07] Seveaz, you going french? === mako [i=mako@bork.hampshire.edu] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === Belutz [n=belutz@ubuntu/member/belutz] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:08] speak of the devil [05:08] greetings [05:08] . [05:08] hi mako [05:08] heya mako [05:08] hi mako [05:08] ah i missed the loco meeting :( [05:08] Belutz: there will be a summary, fear not === g3o [n=g3o@unaffiliated/g3o] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:08] good jono, cuz i was sleeping in class :) [05:08] ok, on to the agenda [05:09] heya nixternal [05:09] Seveas, around? [05:09] hey mako [05:09] hello nixternal [05:09] unfortunately, i have not been able to go through all of my canonical mail from over the weekend so may not as up to date on every issue as i should be [05:09] i should also mention that i will probably have to go in 1.5 or 2 hours, but am happy to catch up later this afternoon on anything i miss [05:09] Seveaz: is seveas i think ;) [05:09] jono: ok, thanks :) [05:09] but we should try to handle things that have a lot of discussion before [05:09] gnomefreak: correct :) [05:10] sabdfl: I'm at work now so different nick [05:10] gnomefreak: the cloak gives it away [05:10] ok, so is the Leadership CoC first? === gnomefreak didnt look at cloak [05:10] sabdfl: right [05:10] Seveaz: please add the secretary proposal to the end of the agenda [05:10] yes, Leadership CoC [05:10] Leadership Code of Conduct [05:10] thanks to mako, jono and others for pulling this together [05:11] sabdfl: -EACCESS forgot password and no access to home mail [05:11] i think it's important, especially in the context of the various team councils that are being set up === mah [n=marcel@85.25.52.135] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:11] if they haven't already, people should read it [05:11] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LeadershipCodeofConduct by the way [05:11] if they see anything major missing, or something major that shouldn't be there that is, it would be good to know [05:12] obviously, since i wrote it, i'm pretty happy with ti. [05:12] do the LoCo leader have to sign this leadership CoC? [05:12] i've reviewed and made a few tweaks [05:12] sabdfl: you're the only one :) [05:12] "conflicts of interest"> I think the emphasis is the wrong way round in the third sentence [05:12] yes, LoCo team leaders, and other senior CC-appointed teams (and of course the CC ;-)) will be held to this standard [05:12] should be that perceived conflicts of interest are as important as real ones? [05:12] cjwatson: good point [05:13] is that only for approved LoCo teams? [05:13] cjwatson: yes [05:13] lophyte: all leaders are expected to abide by it [05:13] lophyte: for anyone that purports to take a leadership role in a LoCo team [05:13] alrighty :) [05:13] lophyte: and the approval process for loco teams will observe this [05:13] in other words, if you are driving a team or claiming to, for part of ubuntu, then you should expect people to hold you to this standard [05:13] jono: when is the deadline for the approved loco teams? [05:14] just like people in an IRC channel or forum or mailing list might say to someone, "dude, read the CoC, I think that's a bit out of line" [05:14] it's seen as something like the code of conduct [05:14] hi mako, nixternal, seveaz, ubuntu_demon [05:14] not a stick, but a high-level set of principles we except leaders to live up to [05:14] folks will likely remind leaders of this document if they are forgetting the guidelines [05:14] jono, sabdfl: excellent :) [05:14] that's right [05:14] Belutz: there is no deadline, but we expect loco leaders to abide by the Leadership CoC - this is why we are presenting it to the CC for approval [05:14] s/except/expect/ [05:14] Belutz: most leaders have the qualities in that document fairly innately [05:14] ok, so any additional comments on the document? [05:15] jono: what is the difference between LoCo leader and LoCo contact? This CoC is only for leaders? [05:15] mruiz: the lcoc is for anyone in a leadership position in ubuntu [05:15] can I ask a question? [05:15] can I ask CC members to +1 or -1 the document as it stands, pending possible typo or tweaks, no "editorial changes"? [05:15] theCore: of course [05:15] theCore: go ahead === X3N_ [n=michael@host81-154-190-71.range81-154.btcentralplus.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:15] mruiz: if a team has a leader, or puts themself in a position of leadership, they should abide by the LCoC [05:16] sabdfl: I did some minor tweaks just now [05:16] ok, thanks [05:16] how new leaders will be nominated? [05:16] theCore: that's different per team [05:16] the document is fine, one comment I have is if there is ever a CoC 2.0 made, the LCoC should be merge into it. Many of the ideas of the LCoC can be applied to ever Ubuntu community member [05:17] MikeB-: fair enough [05:17] if you form a team, called, say "ubuntu-advocacy-it", and announce it, and want to be an organiser, then you should expect people to hold you to this standard even if you did this without any formal appointment by the CC [05:17] you are overtly taking a leadership role === snail [n=syeates@syeates.oucs.ox.ac.uk] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:17] and anyone participating in the ubuntu community, in its broadest sense, should know what they can expect from their leaders [05:17] hmm so does this mean that any (ubuntuforums) staff member should be bound to the lcoc as well? Or should only admins/fc be bound to this? === nejode [n=nelson@201.210.76.120] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:17] right, the CoC doesn't just apply to people who have officially agreed it to or become ubunteros.. it sets the tone for the community [05:18] sabdfl, ah, that makes more sense [05:18] thanks [05:18] likewise, this wouldn't only apply to people in officially delegated positions but anyone in a leadership position to the community [05:18] ubuntugeek: i think you will find that forums members hold moderators to this standard [05:18] same with irc participants and IRC ops === somerville32 [n=somervil@fctnnbsc15w-156034086016.nb.aliant.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:18] the nice thing is, there is still room for context-specific guidelines and processes [05:18] i see [05:18] ubuntugeek: sabdfl: What about moderators who are currently on leave? Surely things like the stepping down during extended absences can't apply. [05:18] like the forums guys with their dispute resolution processes [05:19] and the mailing list etiquette guidelines [05:19] ubuntugeek: I think the staff is viewed and acts as leaders [05:19] and IRC ops guidelines [05:19] this is a nice general statement of core values [05:19] indeed [05:19] ubuntugeek: it's high level, people aren't often (ever?) punished for violating it. but it's a set of ideals that we agree to agree on [05:19] I really like it [05:19] like the CoC [05:19] the thing I'd like people to take away from this is that holding a position of authority is a contract - you have certain privileges in exchange for certain responsibilities [05:19] PriceChild: interesting. in the case of moderation, you are not *blocking* decisions by not stepping down [05:20] i think it may be worth clarifying this === chrids [n=Chrits@201.202.128.98] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === MagicFab [n=magicfab@montreal.canonical.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:20] sabdfl : +1 [05:20] in other words, where a leadership position has a quorum impact on decisions, its important to step down [05:20] this is a sort of statement of the general kinds of responsibilities that people in authority tend to have [05:20] as part of general leadership decency [05:20] where it's just about having additional permissions, and others can take up the slack without you stepping down, then there's more flexibility [05:20] sabdfl: ubuntugeek: ok gotcha. Btw, I have no problem with the LCoC or CoC, to me they're just common courtesy. [05:20] PriceChild: that's the idea [05:21] I really like the LCoC and CoC [05:21] PriceChild: you'd be amazed how useful it is to document common courtesy, given the diversity in age, nationality, culture, language, background, etc in a community this big [05:21] sabdfl: "If an absence becomes extended, [and this absence will get in the way of other people's work,] they should step own ..." [05:21] down [05:21] ? [05:22] cjwatson: I like that added part [05:22] sabdfl: It is very useful having a solid document to be able to refer "naughty" users to. === luis__lopez [n=llopez@68.182.88.148] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:22] I wouldn't really want to use the term "naughty" of leaders :-) [05:22] "Leaders in Ubuntu can not and will not stay leaders only because they got there first." How leaders will be changed? [05:22] votes [05:22] :) [05:22] the LCoC not onl document courtesy but identifies core leadership values, that like sabdfl says, can be built upon inside each team [05:22] So what. you guys are saying that one can not give courtesy and respect with out following the CoC rules? [05:22] theCore: this isn't a statement of process [05:22] What level of professionalism should volunteers in leadership positions (such as an IRC Operator or Team Leader) be expected to maintain? [05:22] That's a polite word for it anyway... === mbafk [n=mjeg@iam10.ninja.me.uk] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:23] "Leaders in Ubuntu can not and will not stay leaders only because they got there first" [05:23] sure they can.. [05:23] why not [05:23] If I can interject something that might be missing from the lcoc doc, and that is that leaders often treat each other in ways that might be mis-perceived by some as inappropriate, like kicking each other from the IRC-channels for example, it's fun perhaps for the ops but open to interpretation as bullying or flexing of IRC muscle, to my mind, it's an example of setting a bad example === ypsila [n=opera@p54AA302D.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [05:23] ubuntugeek: others may be more competent [05:23] or more available [05:23] or better smelling [05:23] or .... [05:23] huh [05:23] just because you got there first, doesn't mean you're a good leader [05:23] :) === slomo [n=slomo@ubuntu/member/slomo] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === nejode [n=nelson@201.210.76.120] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Konversation] [05:24] ubuntugeek: it doesn't mean to imply that if they're fine, and the only thing is that they were there first, that they have to be replaced [05:24] lophyte: indeed. [05:24] ubuntugeek: depends on the leader. I'm stepping down from the CC because I think others who have got less worn-out will do a better job than I can. [05:24] ubuntugeek: but that doesn't mean I think the other CC members ought to do the same [05:24] Sure.. [05:25] anto9us: that is in some ways a separate issue - bullying is unacceptable, but there is no way we can develop policy and guidelines around "playful banter" === Belutz [n=belutz@ubuntu/member/belutz] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:25] in case of ubuntugeek it's in the ForumsGovernance document that he has a lifetime membership of the Forums Council as long as ubuntugeek (Ryan) follows the LCoC [05:25] ubuntugeek: I think the point is "*only* because" - if folks deserve to continue leading their community, there are certainly other "because"s [05:25] ubuntugeek: the operative word is *only* === jbailey [n=jbailey@montreal.canonical.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:25] ud: ah, which i never really agreed to. the lcoc was added our calls [05:26] ubuntugeek: if the *only* reason someone maintains a leadership position is because they got their first, that seems like a bit of a bum deal [05:26] ok, i've modded the doc to address the difference between blocking and non-blocking absences [05:26] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LeadershipCodeofConduct?action=diff [05:26] Thanks sabdfl [05:26] ubuntugeek : the lcoc was mentioned during one of these conference calls about the forums. I'm sure you overheard. But it's not very important as long as you agree :) [05:26] ubuntugeek, ubuntu_demon: but this document wasn't written when we had the last call. that's why we're talking about it now [05:26] mako : yeah [05:27] as I see it, the LCoC is a guideline, a document to give us direction, and should never be use as a stick to weild over people [05:27] ubuntugeek couldn't have been expected to agree in advance to an unwritten document :) [05:27] mako : true. although it's a nice document :) === jamesbrose [n=james@cpc3-bolt6-0-0-cust407.manc.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:27] ubuntu_demon: i agree :) [05:27] hah [05:27] wow ego's [05:27] :-p [05:28] ubuntugeek: ;) [05:28] not amused.. [05:28] all cases will have to be bought to the CC, FC , or whatever counsil [05:28] one problem we have had in the past, in Debian or Ubuntu or whatever, is team leaders wandering off and everyone else being stuck unable to get anything done [05:28] it's a pretty real problem [05:28] ubuntugeek: satisfied with the language? [05:28] indeed, LUGs have the same problem [05:28] sure ok, lets move on then.. we can address the lcoc i am bound to when we talk about the governance [05:28] sure popey [05:29] ubuntugeek : IMHO it's important that you address it now if you have any issues with it. Then it can be improved. === jdong [n=jdong@ubuntu/member/jdong] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === jayteeuk [n=jayteeuk@cpc1-derb5-0-0-cust76.lei3.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:30] this is not a legal document [05:30] it will be difficult to "bind" anyone to it [05:30] jono, yes, I make a specific point as an example and yes I agree it's a separate issue, though I wouldn't wish for a policy around that specifically so much as awareness of potential issues that might arise from the playful banter, to some seeing someone being kicked strikes up a fight or flight response [05:30] thats fine.. nothing further from me [05:30] most of what happens in the ubuntu community is based on goodwill and good faith [05:30] it's more important to say what we expect so that people know what they're "signing up for" when they take on leadership positions === ..[topic/#ubuntu-meeting:Ubugtu] : Current meeting: Community Council | Calendar: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event | Logs: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/ | 13 Dec 12:00 UTC: Edubuntu | 14 Dec 16:00 UTC: Ubuntu Development Team | 19 Dec 20:00 UTC: Technical Board | 20 Dec 20:00 UTC: Edubuntu | 21 Dec 21:00 UTC: Ubuntu Development Team [05:30] sabdfl, there is still moral respnsibility [05:30] :D [05:30] i think it will be clear the circumstances under which someone is not really following this LCoC === zarul[brb] [n=mE@219.95.1.252] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:30] if you've not been in a leadership kind of position before, sometimes it's not all obvious [05:30] How is it not a legal doc. your asking folks to abide by it,and conform the rules in it sabdfl [05:31] anto9us: sure, and I think this is something we can discuss and develop as a separate case [05:31] i don't think it will ever turn into a legalistic, clause-by-clause thing [05:31] right, introducing something like this retroactively is a bit tricky, so it's important to get consensus or identify issues now among people who are currently in leadership positions === zarul[brb] is now known as zarul [05:31] right, i think it's more like the CoC [05:31] SD-Plissken: it's not "you're violating clause 3, subsection 7. bzzt" - it's an informal statement of values [05:31] people invoke it frequently enough, but rarely "apply" it [05:31] er clause <-> subsection but you know what I mean :-) [05:31] mako : +1. IMHO it's important that all big community leaders give their input on the document right now .. before it's getting approved [05:32] to be specific, i would not ask ubuntugeek to step down form the forums council because of a single incident or issue, which is i think what was worrying ubuntugeek, given the context of our UDS forums discussions [05:32] sabdfl: correct === givre [n=Florent@APuteaux-152-1-55-72.w82-120.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:32] i am happy with ubuntugeek's life-long position on the FC, it's an unusual concession but i think it's well deserved [05:33] making it subject to the LCoC is really only a convenient way of saying "stay engaged and stay constructive" [05:33] I agree with sabdfl that it would be pretty clear if someone was not acting within the spirit of the LCoC [05:33] sabdfl: +1 IMHO ubuntugeek deserves to be a lifelong member of the FC [05:33] cjwatson I don't by that. the simple fact is if you dont abide by it your brought up for repremand or asked to remove yourself. rules are writen to be inforced. I highly doubt these where written in hohum fashion. [05:33] i would not invoke the LCoC unless there was BROAD consensus that that was not the case [05:33] like, someone doesn't show up to meetings for months [05:33] i have to be a bit careful here myself ;-) [05:33] sabdfl: that's right [05:33] indeed [05:33] haha [05:33] sabdfl: bwhahaha!!! [05:33] sabdfl: the whole thing, not just that you need to be careful.. ALTHOUGH YOU DO [05:33] :) [05:34] ok, so, can i ask CC members to +1 or -1 the document as it stands? [05:34] SD-Plissken: guidelines, not rules [05:34] we're 30 minutes in and have a lot of ground to cover [05:34] i'll abstain since i had a such a large role in drafting it [05:34] mako: please don't! [05:34] sabdfl: funny ^^ [05:34] rules are written to be enforced, but guidelines are written so that people know where they stand [05:34] I think you should vote mako [05:34] fine, +1 from me [05:34] mako: you would not write it if you disagreed with it [05:35] jono: right, that's why i wouldn't vote against it :) [05:35] sabdfl: +1, we've already gone over the bits I thought were wonky and changed them [05:35] Fine guidelines. and the fact still stand if you don't follow the guideline theres reprocutions. === claydoh [n=claydoh@66.252.48.95] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:35] +1 [05:35] +1 from me too [05:35] mako: woo! [05:35] +1 as guidelines [05:35] +1 form me too [05:35] super, thanks mako, jono, CC [05:35] sabdfl: oh, perhaps we should make it even more clear that they're not meant for rigid enforcement [05:35] DONE [05:35] :) [05:35] +1 as Guidelines [05:35] +1 [05:35] it does say so at the top, but it could be clearer to stave off paranoia [05:36] +1 for the LCoC [05:36] (people: only CC members vote. +1 from others is noty needed) [05:36] it does say "a set of guidelines" [05:36] +1 for the LCoC as guidelines that is :) [05:36] alright lets move on [05:36] my time here is limited [05:36] so let's leave it as it stands, we can clarify it if someone cites the LCoC in a lawsuit :-) [05:36] sabdfl: can we do the IRC bit first, I may get kicked out soon [05:36] the forums governance document is next [05:36] SD-Plissken: I'd expect that in general if people were acting out of character for how we'd like leaders to behave, we'd talk to them first, not treat them like naughty children === Webspot [n=Webspotu@5ac4441d.bb.sky.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:37] ok [05:37] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ForumsGovernance i believe [05:37] i'll come out up front and say i'm opposed [05:37] (sorry, mako, want to address IRC issue) [05:37] i understand there are some issues [05:37] oh, ok === claydoh [n=claydoh@66.252.48.95] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:38] but i don't think the folks proposing the move have come up with very strong arguments [05:38] i missed a line in there [05:38] freenode appears to be doing OK despite the loss of lilo [05:38] are we talking about seveas as CC secretary now ? [05:38] ubuntu_demon: no, staying on freenode or not [05:38] the #canonical issue was never, in my mind, a forcing function for an ubuntu community decision, and its resolved now in any event [05:38] cjwatson if you say so. just remember that statement you made there. [05:38] ubuntu_demon: no freenode proposals [05:38] the original GetOffFreenodeSpec was prompted by concerns about #canonical - that's since been moved to a private server so seems moot [05:38] SD-Plissken: sure, I'm entirely happy to stand by what I said === Sapote [n=guillote@200.68.214.35] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] [05:39] ok, so does anyone on the CC want to take up the case for moving? [05:39] someone ping me when we get to the FG.. [05:39] ubuntugeek : I will [05:39] sabdfl: no, I was sort of +0 anyway and am uninterested now [05:39] ok, can we vote briefly? [05:39] -1 [05:40] i would rather we vote, take a decision, than just defer it indefinitely [05:40] -0, seems like lots of work for little gain now [05:40] -0 [05:40] -1 === silbs [n=jane@217.205.109.249] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:40] Our LoCo team (http://www.ubuntu-cl.org) has a forum.

[05:40] mruiz: let's wait 'til we get to that agenda item [05:40] ubuntu_demon: should be next i suppose [05:40] mruiz: we haven't got to that yet [05:40] jono > I think I am :] [05:41] or am i ubuntu member ... sorry :] [05:41] sabdfl: i'm not going to rock the boat [05:41] Yann2: you'll get to vote on CC members, soon [05:41] Yann2: the CC is only 4 members [05:41] Yann2: you are not a CC member [05:41] Yann2: the CC members are sabdfl, elmo, mako, kamion [05:41] cjwatson, PriceChild : oh [05:41] mako: +1, -1, 0? [05:41] 0 [05:41] s/kamion/cjwatson/ nowadays :) [05:41] ok === sheepeatingtaz [n=sheepeat@goatse.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:41] guess i have to take the bullet ;-) === Seveaz kisses sabdfl [05:41] CC decides to decline the proposal, we can of course discuss this again in future if the situation changes === gnomefreak never seena tie before [05:41] bullets are a good source of iron [05:42] gnomefreak: that wasn't a tie, it was -1/4 [05:42] i'm sympathetic for arguements from both side, but don't see a mandate for moving from the community [05:42] I think it would've been useful to get input from people on the IRC ops council on this issue too [05:42] Seveas: what's next? [05:42] though I'm sure they all agree with the final decision 8) [05:42] sabdfl: forums guidelines === kylem [i=kyle@fruit.freedesktop.org] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:42] apokryphos: (we did at previous meetings) [05:42] ubuntugeek: ping! its up [05:42] ok, we had extensive and ultimately very positive, constructive discussions on this during mountain view [05:43] ok [05:43] i think everyone in the CC wants to give the Forums full recognition and integration in the the ubuntu community === hugo_ is now known as _hugo_ [05:43] so thanks to those who devoted a lot of time to the discussions [05:43] the document is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ForumsGovernance [05:43] I have no issues at this time with the FG.. we discussed it in detail at the mds [05:44] thanks jono for the reference [05:44] one thing that i think is worth pointing out is that a lot of this thinking has been generalised to other teams too [05:44] (administrivia: I have to leave at 17:45 UTC) [05:44] yeah, i'm excited that it looks like we're finally ready to move forward with this.. it's way, way past time that the forums be given full recognition for the central role they've played [05:44] so this effort pays off not just for Forums but for other growing parts of the community [05:44] like the MOTU [05:44] these guidelines, structures etc will get duplicated and re-used [05:44] Maybe we should ask if there are people who have big issues with the document ? [05:44] so a worthwhile investment of time and thinking from ubuntugeek, jono, mako, ubuntu_demon, MikeB-, CC and many others [05:45] can we take out the "This a draft. Everything here is completely open for discussion and reevaluation." [05:45] the only procedural clarification i'd like to make now (which i think is clear in the document), is that council, when initially created, won't immediately be able to create ubuntu members [05:45] sabdfl: i'd love to [05:46] ok, i'm going to chop off the top and bottom which are focused on the discussion, so what we have left is the RESULT and the document for approval by the CC [05:46] sabdfl: i just chopped off the top [05:46] mako : the CC will guide the FC in the process of creating ubuntu members right ? So maybe current forum staff on the CC agenda can be the first to go through this new process [05:46] httguhthhghryhhrhhh55u4htjh5jutj6iuu4h5i6h3jhrtjhrjhrjhrjrtujhrtjjtjht [05:46] rtjhtrht5 [05:47] ud: I think we were going to get to the election of ubuntu members down the road at some point [05:47] ... and hello to effie_jayx's cat [05:47] lol :) [05:47] :-) [05:47] haha [05:47] hahaha [05:47] so are there any aspects that anyone wishes to discuss about the document? [05:47] effie_jayx: hello cat. welcome to ubuntu meeting :) [05:48] ubuntu_demon, ubuntugeek: that's right, soon, we just need to see a few of the FC members here as we go through the process so we're sure everyone is on the same page in terms of qualifications for membership [05:48] ubuntugeek, ubuntu_demon: we've done that with all of the councils as well [05:49] none here.. I would like to note per our conversations at mds.. the FC would be formed initially of myself, john and mike with the nominations of two others to sit on the fc with us.. i dont see that on the document [05:49] mako : yeah great . There are a few forum staff who want to become Ubuntu Members. There's at least one on the current CC agenda (I haven't had time to take a good look at it) [05:49] ubuntugeek: which Mike? [05:49] kiwinz braniff [05:49] right [05:49] ubuntu_demon: I'm one :) [05:50] ubuntugeek now theres the question who will pick the other two parties to sit with you? [05:50] kiwinz and john (jdong) are both forum admins [05:50] ok, i've taken out all the "discussion" stuff [05:50] so the doc represents a clear proposal [05:50] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ForumsGovernance?action=diff [05:50] sd-.. the admins have already discussed and chosen.. [05:50] ubuntugeek: right, we need the full list so we can approve it [05:51] SD-Plissken: IMHO Ryan can start with 3 admins as FC or 3 admins + 2 others (chosen by Ryan as well) [05:51] to be clear, the nominations should come from the CC, not just approval of forums admins decisions [05:51] mako: full list of what? [05:51] the process is laid out in the FG doc [05:51] ubuntugeek: candidates, namely the two others [05:51] ubuntugeek: sorry, forum membefs [05:51] ubuntugeek: sorry, forum *council* members [05:51] i was under the impression to initialize this process we were going to select [05:52] the initial FC is 3 members (ryan troy, mike braniff, john dong) === maxamillion [n=adam@ngl-1-14.shsu.edu] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:52] we need to expand that to 5 [05:52] Right === kalikiana [n=kalikian@xdsl-87-78-101-215.netcologne.de] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:52] process is cc appointment in consultation with [list of stakeholders] [05:53] i'd like to get to 5 quick, and think it's reasonable for the FC (of 3) to put up some names === PuMpErNiCkEl [n=pumperni@about/essy/bacon/PuMpErNiCkLe] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:53] if the CC is happy, we can JDI [05:53] Thats fine [05:54] what does JD stand for ? [05:54] mikeb and matthew are our two selections. === GnuKemist takes a quick bio break ;) [05:54] Just Do It [05:54] okay thanks :) === juliux [n=juliux@ubuntu/member/juliux] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:54] intro to matthew? i think the CC has met MikeB in Moutnain View [05:54] sabdfl: so, to clarify, is the idea to vote on this now with the initial list of three [05:54] mikeb as in Basinger? [05:54] which matthew? [05:54] cjwatson: correct === Webspot [n=Webspotu@5ac4441d.bb.sky.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:54] ubuntugeek : Do mikeb and matthew know you have nominated them ? [05:55] mako: if we have 2 good candidates, i think we all win with a fast decision on the expansion as well as the FG docs [05:55] ubuntu_demon: heh, good point === mako nods [05:55] they do, of course, have to want the position :-) [05:55] matthew and mikeb are two fine forum moderaters who have been active in the staff for quite some time [05:55] http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=17635 [05:55] well, MikeB- knows now :) [05:55] +1 on that ubuntu_demon [05:55] ud: yes they know [05:55] ubuntugeek asked me a couple of weeks ago, I would be honored [05:56] I'd second that too, ubuntu_demon. [05:56] and both accepted [05:56] ubuntugeek: ta [05:56] has this been publicly discussed by forums staff? [05:56] since we're approving the FG doc, it seems sane to make sure it's followed :-) [05:56] matthew is a fine moderator who has take the intuitive to excel his role on the forums. === Mathieu [n=cicak@cm183.sigma249.maxonline.com.sg] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:57] but, has it been publicly discussed with forums staff? [05:57] sabdfl: AFAIK it's not been publicly discussed with forums staff (it's new to me but I've been quite busy lately with school) === Adri2000 [n=Adri2000@unaffiliated/adri2000] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [05:57] are both candidates ubuntu members? [05:58] no clue [05:58] MikeB-: is candidating now [05:58] sabdfl: appliying today [05:58] (it would be a trivial +1 given their contributions to the forum, clearly) [05:58] :), Vote Mike! [05:58] is matthew here now ? [05:58] i dont think he could make it [05:58] ok, CC, how do you feel about dealing with MikeB now, and asking for more on matthew? [05:58] matthew is an ubuntu member [05:58] the doc says [05:58] https://launchpad.net/people/matthelmke [05:58] - ubuntu member [05:58] - public wiki page [05:58] trivial +1 on MikeB- [05:59] ditto elmo [05:59] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MikeBasinger [05:59] sabdfl: we've seen matthelmkde before, [05:59] - opinions from forums staff, admins (we have that) [05:59] matthew is already in ubuntumembers, good [05:59] +1 for MikeB [05:59] mako: careful, mdke = Matthew East [05:59] yeah, all i'm looking for is a bit more public process within the Forums on matthew's nomination to FC [06:00] MikeB-: could you stick a link to your launchpad page on your wiki page? thanks [06:00] jenda: while tricky, i think i can keep my matthe's straight ;) [06:00] mako: we've hired a BUNCH more at Canonical :-) [06:00] sabdfl matthew and mike are both good to go,and standup guys. [06:00] not all of whom, i think, are straight [06:00] hehe :) [06:00] sabdfl: the best way to get more forums input is discussing it in our private staff forum. Personally I support these two candidates (I didn't know about them being nominated) [06:00] sd-plissken is a moderator [06:01] you have enough feedback here to proceed [06:01] For what its worth I'll back both of them also - moderator [06:01] it is 01:00 here [06:01] i'm thrilled with MikeB- for membership [06:01] ok, let's vote on MikeB for ubuntu membership, then for FC membership, and ask ubuntugeek to coordinate more public discussion on matthew amongst forums staff [06:01] ubuntugeek : that's true as well. How many forum staff are here now ? [06:01] the documentation only confirms that i thought before [06:01] mako: ? [06:01] I think we've already voted on MikeB for membership. :) [06:02] so we have mako +1 on mikeb, and i will +1 too [06:02] 16:58 < elmo> trivial +1 on MikeB- [06:02] 16:59 < cjwatson> ditto elmo [06:02] ok, and cjwatson too, so well done mikeb [06:02] ubuntugeek: documentation on his wiki page, etc [06:02] excuse me, but what+s FC? [06:02] ubuntugeek: lots of contributions, activity on the forums, etc [06:02] Forums Council [06:02] EmxBA: forums council [06:02] my thanks to you all [06:02] welcome [06:02] EmxBA: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ForumsGovernance [06:02] thanks [06:02] MikeB-, congrats and welcome [06:02] congratulations MikeB- [06:02] congratiolations MikeB ! :) [06:02] +1 from me also for MikeB on the FC [06:02] well done MikeB- [06:02] MikeB-: (will need a launchpad account name to put that into effect) [06:03] brb [06:03] right, i'm happy with both both MikeB- and matthew (for tha matter) on the FC [06:03] mako : me too [06:03] what mako said [06:03] ok, +1 from mako on both MikeB and matthew [06:03] (although I'm not a CC member :)) [06:04] i'd like more evidence of open forums discussion on matthew, but if the rest of the CC +1's him i'll roll with it [06:04] us three admins discussed it.. thats good enough, the fg isnt even in place yet. [06:04] if it was we would have taken another direction [06:05] ok, let's vote on the FG doc [06:05] +1 from me on that [06:05] I'm ok with MikeB and matthew, since the forums staff are happy [06:05] +1 from me on FG [06:05] Great! === Gunirus [n=pieter@83.101.8.56] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:06] +1 from me as well [06:06] ubuntugeek : well chosen on matthew and mikeB [06:06] lets edit that document to include a list of FC members [06:06] We will introduce the fc changes on the forums within the next week. === EmxBA [n=emx@unaffiliated/emxba] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === Seveaz will be kicked out of the building in 5 minutes [06:07] ubuntugeek: sounds good [06:07] sorry folks [06:07] Seveaz: that's fine.. i've got about a half an hour it seems === jayteeuk [n=jayteeuk@cpc1-derb5-0-0-cust76.lei3.cable.ntl.com] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [06:08] So the FG did pass right ? [06:08] cjwatson: vote on the FG doc? [06:08] ubuntu_demon: it's about to === jayteeuk [n=jayteeuk@cpc1-derb5-0-0-cust76.lei3.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:09] no pressure :-) [06:09] I see ... cjwatson's vote is still missing :) [06:09] there are ~25 people listed on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommunityCouncilAgenda that should be considered [06:09] no issues with the FG document, pending approval of the initial FC members [06:09] aren't they separate issues? [06:09] EmxBA: it's extremely unlikely that we're goig to get through them all [06:09] one is process, the other is candidates? [06:09] sabdfl: erm, yeah, seems like it === MacSlow is here [06:09] mako:... nor half of them is here [06:10] so no issues from me [06:10] I seem to remember the first 5 of them were actually voted on last time [06:10] thumbs up or down? [06:10] I am here [06:10] some of us are :) [06:10] up [06:10] ok so we good on the fc+fg stuff? [06:10] and it is very hard for me who is GMT + 8 to be here [06:10] brilliant [06:10] fantastic === PriceChild smiles [06:10] OK, so CC approves the FG document, with much thanks to those who helped write it [06:10] Great! [06:10] cool ! [06:11] woot! [06:11] open discussion on matthew wouldn't hurt, thinking about it - maybe make that one pending? shouldn't take long === jenda throws a party [06:11] we have a full house of +1's on MikeB [06:11] +1 matthew [06:11] or we cant move forward [06:11] so MikeB is on the FG, and i think it's worth asking ubuntugeek to host a discussion on matthew as the next candidate [06:11] in the forums [06:11] we should also thanks ubuntugeek for bearing through this process.. and for all of his other work making the forums so great :) [06:11] sabdfl: public or staff discussion? [06:11] ubuntugeek: yes we can, FG doc is approved, you have a council of 4 including yourself, and you have a casting vote [06:12] thanks ubuntugeek :) [06:12] ubuntugeek: it doesn't seem like a blocker to start with 4 briefly? [06:12] both, if needed, so public should be fine unless stuff gets tricky [06:12] Like i said [06:12] if we cant vote the people in [06:12] we cant move forward [06:12] ubuntugeek: you have a council, it's not at 5 people, but the FG doc calls for comment from a long list of folks and there is no thread on the forums to suggest that's happened [06:13] blah [06:13] I trust matthew to do a good job. [06:13] Then we shall not move forward [06:13] What's the matter with matthew? [06:13] i have no doubt matthew will get the nod in the next round, but i also think we owe it to the forums users and staff to have a place they can comment on candidates [06:13] But surely now the 4 members are appointed... they can appoint the 5th immediately? [06:13] I think he has unanimous support among us, the forum staff? [06:13] OK, i am going to make this clear [06:13] PriceChild: no, the FG does not appoint its own members [06:13] sorry, FC [06:13] we are not moving forward at this time [06:13] sabdfl: sorry misunderstanding [06:15] well, ok, i think we have made good progress [06:15] the FG document is approved by the CC === claydoh [n=claydoh@66.252.48.95] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Konversation] [06:15] and we have a Forums Council of 4 members === fabbione [i=fabbione@gordian.fabbione.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:15] no we dont [06:15] that's a good start [06:15] ubuntugeek: in what sense do we not? [06:15] Because we are not moving forward [06:16] could you please rephrase that without using the words "moving forward"? I'm having trouble working out what you mean === tkjacobsen [n=mash@kbhn-vbrg-sr0-vl202-105.perspektivbredband.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:16] ubuntugeek: what is your objection? [06:16] During our calls, it was implied that the initial two people who be chosen by the current admins.. we did this.. [06:17] not as i recall it, anyone else who was there care to weigh in? [06:17] ubuntugeek: i think it is fine to get open discussion for both me and matthew on to the FC. I'm willing to delay my nod to the FC till next month so the community can have its say [06:17] the doc explicitly names 3 initial members [06:17] and explicitly gives a list of folks to be consulted on new appointments [06:18] and explicitly says we want to get to 5 quickly [06:18] ok if the three admins and the various mod's here backing people are not good enough then i am done here [06:18] ubuntugeek: of course they are good enough, their voice counts [06:18] ubuntugeek: hang on a sec, lets ensure we are all clear on what we interpreted === givre [n=Florent@APuteaux-152-1-11-189.w82-120.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:18] then finalize it and we can move on.. [06:18] but the Forums Governance doc does not ask for "seconds from some admins or staff members" [06:19] it says the CC will not appoint folks without consulting the staff and members [06:19] mikeb had very widespread forums community support as a representative during these discussions [06:19] which is why i think the CC is happy to say that the forums staff and members have really been consulted [06:19] but matthew was not really part of that process [06:20] i think forums members will be very happy to have a thread on this nomination, and i've no doubt it will reflect well on matthew [06:20] given everything that's been said [06:20] but i don't think the CC would be meeting its obligations under the FG doc, if we just +1 matthew [06:20] i figured this would be like this.. thats why i was hesitant to even move forward.. [06:20] Someone will have to resort to compromise here. I believe we should leave matthew as pending, as he is 1) not here to tell us he wants to do it 2) hasn't been discussed by the forum staff, although all of us present agree with him taking the spot. [06:21] without any evidence of a broad consultation of the forums members and staff [06:21] i don't really have strong feelings either way on this [06:21] +1 jenda [06:21] +1 jenda [06:21] +1 jenda [06:22] there are some forum staff right here to support matthew though. [06:22] "some staff" is not the same as "open consultation" [06:22] sabdfl: +1 [06:22] right, and certainly not the same as "consulting forums members" [06:22] i think it's obvious that a thread on the forums is the right way to get that open consultation [06:23] which is why i'm suggesting ubuntugeek lead that [06:23] and come back for a +1 on matthew once that's done [06:23] I think you should make a decision here, it seems that we are dragging this issue to no ends... [06:23] then maybe we can do a staff poll and have a new CC meeting quickly (like next week) to get him on the FC and move on ? [06:23] matthew has not been publically discussed, and I don't see a problem with waiting till next time, till matthew can make it, or till we have at least given a chance to other forum staff to have a say. [06:23] the agreement as i understood it was that the the admins/ubuntugeek would pick the extra two members.. but i think a consultation by the focums community/staff would probably be a good thing in either case.. since it seems that anything other than a confirmation is unlikely, i don't see any issue with doing it for matthew or even matthew and MikeB- [06:23] *you guys [06:23] matthew is NOT EVEN HERE [06:23] right, i think matthew should at least show up to a CC meeting [06:23] BECAUSE HE COULDNT BE [06:23] !caps [06:23] ubuntugeek: well, let's find a time that suits him [06:23] <3 somerville32 [06:23] ok, lets calm down [06:23] and he probably wouldn't mind seeing a thread about how everything thinks he's great :) [06:24] sorry [06:24] mako: lol :) [06:24] what timezone's he in? looks like -6 [06:24] oh, no, I'm on crack [06:25] GMT [06:25] IMHO let's arrange a CC meeting with matthew attending asap (like next week or something). [06:25] (managed to confuse Morocco with Mexico) [06:25] (there should be a meeting soon anyway, because a lot will be left over from this one so:) [06:25] ubuntu_demon: +1 [06:26] concentrate on members that applied for membership on CommunityCouncilAgenda wiki page, if possible...? === frodon [n=frodon@lns-bzn-26-82-254-89-238.adsl.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:26] EmxBA + 1 [06:26] EmxBA: this seems like a more pressing issue to me. [06:26] please . since the ukteam are mostly at work and thinking about heading home ! [06:26] I have to go in 20 minutes.... [06:27] EmxBA: I'm standing for membership too but being members is slightly insignificant compared [06:27] it's not all going to get done - we're just going to have to do what wee can [06:27] we [06:27] it is like 1.30 in the morning and I am at a cyber cafe right now, as I am away from hom [06:27] ok, I'll be patient [06:27] *home [06:27] sure PriceChild [06:27] ok, lets clarify the position where we are now [06:27] the cafe is closing soon === amachu [n=amachu@125.22.225.26] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:27] ubuntugeek: still there? [06:28] zarul: appreciate your participation, will get to you before it closes === MacSlow is patient too... early evening here for him [06:28] yes [06:28] excellent :) === mneptok [n=mneptok@montreal.canonical.com] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === popey has a pint waiting for him [06:28] ubuntugeek: what is core your objection at this point? [06:28] just to be 100% clear [06:28] ubuntugeek: from what I have seen the CC has no objection to matthew as a candidate [06:28] that my fears about this process have shown to be true regarding how this process is going to work. [06:29] but there is some concern that the process needs to be followed [06:29] the process is pretty clear in the FG doc we just approved [06:29] there (was) no process before this [06:29] that's all [06:29] this is clean/new document [06:29] a start.. [06:29] sorry to interupt, but I've got to go visit family in hospital now, I'm here to give a +1 for mruiz - he's been extremely active in trying to get latin america loco teams coordinated and really is busy trying to make things better for spanish speaking loco teams and ubuntu users [06:29] i have no doubt the CC would +1 matthew after a thread on the forums discussing his candidacy [06:29] ubuntugeek: lets give the process a chance - and the agreement which you seem broadly happy with is there to secure a good, honest, consistent process [06:29] i assume no major controvery emerging in that thread, given the unilateral support [06:30] but it's important to show that we want the FG doc to mean something === fernando_ [n=fernando@189.0.152.50] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:30] ubuntugeek: I'm not clear on what your fears are; I don't see anything going particularly wrong ... [06:30] much of this is just due process ubuntugeek [06:30] i would have called for discussion on MikeB too, except I think we all feel that has already happened, in effect [06:30] newz2000: thank for the +1 on mruiz, noted [06:30] sabdfl: I'm willing to wait a month to allow discussion [06:30] many of us got to know MikeB- and his excellent contributions at the UDS [06:31] I am sure if we knew Matthew as well, everyone would approach this the same [06:31] and the MikeB- was really mandated by the forums community as a representative alread [06:31] y === lbm [n=lbm@82.192.173.92] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:31] ubuntugeek: see what I mean? [06:31] it is only fair if Matthew and I get the same treatment [06:31] sorry to interrupt guys, I am worry that I won't be able to wait longer, just in case I have to go out any time soon, here is the link to my profile: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZarulShahrin [06:31] ubuntugeek: if you think it's more fair, we might ask for comments on both.. i tend to think it would be === mako nods to MikeB- [06:32] i'm happy with that too, let's get to zarul [06:32] it seems a bit artificial, we're obviously all happy with MikeB [06:32] but shrug [06:32] thank you sabdfl [06:32] MikeB-: I think you are getting the same treatment, its just that the CC are not as familiar with Matthew (yet) [06:32] cjwatson: fwiw, i'm also happy with matthew === chri [n=chri@imset.org] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === TheSheep [i=sheep@atos.wmid.amu.edu.pl] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:32] zarul: === somerville32 cheers on Zarul. [06:32] +1 for zarul [06:32] zarul: what's your LP account? URL? [06:33] any input from ubuntugeek ? [06:33] nothing further we wont move forward until this is resolved [06:33] zarul: seems you have been active for more than a year? [06:33] https://launchpad.net/people/zarulshahrin/ [06:33] that's great [06:33] sabdfl yes [06:33] I think the current action is for a thread to be opened on the forums about matthew [06:33] ubuntugeek : so we can move forward after Matthew is approved at the next CC meeting ? [06:34] I founded MalaysianTeam in May last year [06:34] If I am not wrong [06:34] and I tried hard to promote it here [06:34] ubuntugeek: how would you like to see it resolved [06:34] ubuntu_demon: no it needs to be done this meeting.. there are enough people here to back matthew.. i [06:34] and I am happy that we are growing now [06:34] ok, +1 from me on zarul, long participation, active advocacy, and team leadership [06:34] (sorry, I know we have two threads here being discussed) [06:35] +1 for me for zarul [06:35] the process in which you elect is flawed.. [06:35] Maybe we can focus on forumsgovernance first ? I would hate to see it break apart while we have made this much good progress. [06:35] if you cant agree on matthew today then dont agree on mikeb [06:35] thank you all [06:35] elmo? cjwatson, zarul? [06:36] fine with zarul.. but let's try and get FG finished? [06:36] +1 on zarul, though would like to see the malaysian team up for approval soon too since zarul's application is largely on that :-) [06:36] ubuntu_demon: this is just a quick side discussion before zarul leaves [06:36] T-9 minutes for me [06:36] i'd like to ask the CC if they think (a) the position is the CC should follow the FG doc in appointing the 2 new FC members, or if (b) the 3 forums admins should be appointing them [06:36] for me it is clearly (a) [06:37] well, I do sort of wonder why the FG doc exists if it isn't true :-) [06:37] So if everything is ok, can I leave now? [06:37] for my next act, i'll be standing for head of the united nations... would be easier! [06:37] zarul: congrats and welcome! [06:37] zarul: congrats [06:37] ok [06:37] (and good night, safe travels home) [06:37] thank you all for voting [06:37] cya! [06:37] alright [06:38] i need to run right now [06:38] Like I said, when i walked away from our conversations at mds .. the other two people were going to be selected by the curent admins [06:38] i'll be back in maybe 30-45 minutes [06:38] sabdfl, this whole stuff here is so intense... a bit frightening... but most impressive nevertheless. [06:38] but if it comes to a vote on approval of matthew, i would be happy to have him now [06:38] to form the initial fc team. [06:38] So the meeting is basically postponed in 5 minutes until mako returns... [06:38] I've driven LP for new members up to now (mike.basinger and zarulshahrin), but somebody else will need to take over now [06:38] PriceChild: there are three member present [06:38] you can work without me [06:38] mako: (a) or (b)? [06:38] mako: two as of 7 minutes from now [06:38] mako: cjwatson said something about 9 minutes [06:39] sabdfl: what? [06:39] mako: 17:36 < sabdfl> i'd like to ask the CC if they think (a) the position is the CC should follow the FG doc in appointing the 2 new FC members, or if (b) the 3 forums admins should be appointing them [06:39] I think (a) makes the most sense, simply because this is going to be the FC for the next year or so [06:39] cjwatson: for the initial bootstrap phase, that is right now, i think (b) would be appropriate and in line with our previous discussions [06:39] FWIW I've no objection to generally following the forums admins' recommendations, but I'd like a chance to actually evaluate rather than just rubber-stamp, that's all [06:40] but i'm not opposed to (a) either don't really see why anybody would be [06:40] ok, so 3 for (a) and 1 for (b) [06:40] I can only be +0 on matthew simply because I've never talked to him [06:40] it will only make the position of those people more justified in the eyes of their constituency [06:40] ok i am done here [06:40] and matthew is not here now [06:40] good day [06:40] I don't *object*, just it's impossible to say an outright yes [06:40] ryan , please wait [06:40] alright.. i need to disappear.. sorry! [06:40] ok, i will start the thread on the forums, to give the staff and users an opportunity to discuss matthew [06:40] ... [06:40] a lab sponsor is waiting [06:40] if mikeb prefer to be on the same platform, then that's fine too [06:40] bbiab [06:40] That doesn't help the forums, does it :/ [06:41] Can we please schedule a new CC meeting very soon to handle this FG ? [06:41] :( [06:41] nope [06:41] ubuntu_demon: yes [06:41] MikeB-: ? === ubuntugeek [n=rtroy@64.141.138.3] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:41] wrong window.. i am going to watch this mess that is all === cbx33 [n=pete@ubuntu/member/cbx33] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:42] ok [06:42] next? [06:42] clearly what we discussed on the phone about this and how its playing out here is two different things [06:42] can CC consider my candidation for member approval? [06:42] surely worst case the practical effect is that it takes two weeks longer to get the FC going? I really don't see the big deal [06:42] EmxBA: we are running low on CC memebers === jayteeuk [n=jayteeuk@cpc1-derb5-0-0-cust76.lei3.cable.ntl.com] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [06:42] i see === BenC [n=bcollins@debian/developer/bcollins] has joined #ubuntu-meeting === sfair [n=sfair@dma03.feg.unesp.br] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:43] hi BenC [06:43] hello [06:44] hi BenC [06:44] ubuntugeek: if athread is opened on matthew and there is a concensus then the CC approves him to the FC, would you be happy to move forward [06:44] sabdfl, Next on the agenda would be Call for nominations for the "Localisation / Translation Team Leader". [06:44] ubuntugeek: FWIW, I couldn't confidently claim that (a) is what was agreed to on the phone, it's possible it _was_ (b), but would you not be willing to consider (a) and the (IMO) advantages it has? [06:45] which forum would be the appropriate one for me to start those threads? [06:45] somerville32, was topic regarding IRC/Freenode skipped? [06:45] MacSlow: no. [06:45] MacSlow: no we are staying on freenode [06:45] it was discussed in the beginning === mvo [n=egon@p54A66A0E.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:45] hi BenC [06:46] somerville32, gnomefreak: ah so just the wiki-page is missing an update here ? Try reloading [06:46] i think (a) vs (b) was never explicitly discussed, i assumed it was clearly (a), ubuntugeek obviously assumed differently [06:46] sabdfl: Cafe... and we could sticky it? [06:46] ok, I have to go, sorry folks [06:46] nonetheless, the CC voted for following the FG document process [06:46] cu cjwatson [06:46] elmo: sure the issue i have is if you can't back both right now don't back either [06:46] see you cjwatson [06:46] thanks cjwatson [06:47] ubuntugeek: that's fine, i think MikeB has said he's open to that [06:47] good bye cjwatson [06:47] ok ubuntugeek is here [06:47] so i will open two threads [06:47] ubuntugeek: sure, that's perfectly reasonable, happy to do that [06:47] now i still strongly object to to the way its handled [06:47] ubuntugeek: in what way? [06:48] if you cant trust us to form an initial team then clearly down the road we will have the same issues [06:48] it's Mike Basinger and Matthew ? [06:48] sabdfl: can we set a meeting for either later this week sometime next week to finish the forums item. since the threads will be open it should be a fast vote? [06:48] sabdfl and ubuntugeek: I'm fine with that [06:48] ubuntugeek: we can and do trust you, we've all provisionally +1'ed on both mike and matthew. the issue is that we'd like the forums community to have a chance to participate [06:48] what's Matthew's surname? === frafu [n=frafu@vodsl-9652.vo.lu] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [06:48] and forums nicks for both?

[06:49] Helmke [06:49] ubuntugeek: do you feel the forums community will be happy with mikeb and matthew on the FC [06:50] ^ there goes one of our admins :/ he didn't seem too talkative today anyway.

[06:52] So - would everyone agree with this: we open a thread on the staff forums now, and ask staff to approve the 5 member council as discussed here. If there are no objections by the next CC meeting - we consider it complete? [06:52] could we start a Forum council area in the forums and have Matthew and I FC voted discuessed and voted on there, all people could read, but only forum staff and CC members could write? [06:53] what's matthew's surname? [06:53] matthew [06:53] jenda sabdfl alread started a topic in the cafe it seems [06:53] jono: sure i dont really have a choice [06:53] surname, not nick? [06:53] jono: you guys got me by the balls this time around.. [06:54] ubuntugeek: you *do* have a choice - this is not about forcing something out of you - it is about asking if you are happy with due process [06:54] sabdfl: Helmke [06:54] ubuntugeek: if you are happy with that, we can move forward [06:54] jono: thats fine.. so to recap..

[07:53] Not having to know who arranged it only seems like a positive reflection on the organisation of it. =) [07:53] +1 on theCore - python fans unite!

Somerville (aka somerville32) and I'm here today to apply for membership to the Ubuntu Community. I believe I have made an active and sustained contribution to *Ubuntu over the last few months through Translation and Localisation to English (Ca), support to users on #xubuntu, regular bug triage and support on Launchpad, local advocacy, development and administration of the Xubuntu.org websit [08:22] e, as an active contributor to the Xubuntu Welcome Centre project and specification, as a regular contributor to xubuntu-devel mailing list, as an xubuntu developmer, my presentation at Ubuntu Open Week, as an editor of the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter, as the Xubuntu Wiki maintainer, as an IRC op and contact for the Xubuntu namespace, packaging, community development, and much more with roughly 40hrs a week devoted to [08:22] *Ubuntu. Looking to the future, I'd like to continue to contribute in the aforementioned areas and will work on improving the desktop experience, further development of the Xubuntu and Ubuntu community, documentation, contributing upstream, plus numerous other endeavors. One day I hope to become a Canonical employee so that I can work on Xubuntu full time! :] [08:22] oh, meh, never mind [08:22] My Wiki page can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CodySomerville [08:22] P.S.

[08:27] elmo: A handful, I would guess. === chri [n=chri@imset.org] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [08:28] sabdfl: Ever since I started using Ubuntu, I've helped out and what not in IRC. However, I would say that I started to take an active role as a contributor 3-4 months ago.

[08:32] sabdfl, Macei - AL [08:32] sabdfl, Water paradise, a lot of wonderful beaches [08:32] do you have any specific suggestions about how we can help the brazilian community?

[08:36] sabdfl, in Ubuntu, since July, 2006, when i finished my university [08:36] while waiting, can we see who's next? who's still in the queue? time running short here [08:36] jonh_wendell: +1 from me, mainly on bug triage and advocacy === tonyyarusso is still here === jderose is in the queue still. === maxamillion [n=max@r74-192-178-37.htvlcmta01.hnvitx.tl.dh.suddenlink.net] has left #ubuntu-meeting [] [08:37] elmo, translation, documentation really makes difference on our community [08:37] i must say i think the brazilian community is amazing [08:37] i know there are some tensions [08:37] I'm very happy with jonh_wendell too!

My name is Jason DeRose. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JasonGerardDerose https://launchpad.net/people/jderose [08:38] After talking to seb128, I think I might have given more weight to my upstream work than I should have (as far as Ubuntu member candidacy is concerned), but I guess it doesn't hurt to try. ;) slomo might have had a chance to look at my KungFu package. A few people might remember me from DebConf in Brazil... [08:39] I wrote KungFu, a Python-gtk-gstreamer based DVD ripper, which I have packaged for Ubuntu and hope to get included in Feisty. I'm working on implementing full DVD support under gstreamer0.10, which I might finish in time to be included in Feisty. My development work has generally been upstream, but I wish to use my upstream experience, particularly with GStreamer, to help improve Ubuntu where I can. And once I am less [08:40] jderose: how long have you been contributing to ubuntu? [08:41] my first packaging was about 10 months ago, fuplayer... [08:41] how many packages have you worked on? [08:42] the past 3 moths or so i've been a lot more active.... i've packaged two apps i've written, fuplayer and kungfu. [08:42] jderose: what do you think of pulse audio? [08:42] are you active on mailing lists, irc, or forums? [08:43] oh, and who's been sponsoring your packages? [08:43] the few bugs I've read from jderose are good quality ones (testcases attached to the bugs and a gstreamer patch by example), he didn't work on a lot of bugs for now though [08:43] i don't know a great deal about it yet, but is looks very interesting. there is heating discussion on gst-devel lately about audio server, mostly over how to address pro-audio issues. === lophylap [n=dsulliva@ottawa-hs-64-26-160-142.s-ip.magma.ca] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [08:43] slomo is going to sponsor kungfu. [08:44] jderose: i really like the quality of your contribution, but i think we normally look for a longer period of active participation [08:44] would it be reasonable to say "keep going, come back in a month or two"? [08:44] sabdfl: fair enough. i can apply again later if that is the consensus. [08:44] sabdfl: sure. ;) [08:44] it seems you do very crisp work, which is nice [08:44] sorry about the LONG delay in getting to you :-) [08:45] sitting through a full CC meeting should earn major karma points [08:45] who's next? [08:45] sabdlf: no worries, it was a learning experience. ;) how long should i wait before trying to apply again? [08:45] tonyyarusso: go go go! [08:45] jderose: chat with seb128 and dholbach [08:45] Hello, I am Tony Yarusso. I've been most present on IRC, providing (and receiving) user support, as a member of the New User Network, Canadian Team, and most recently, IRC Team, among others. With the NUN I gave a class on GPG, and helped moderate for Open Week. I also dabble in documentation and marketing, and have begun looking into coordinating a translation, specifications, and helping out with the UWN. [08:45] when they are happy, come again [08:45] I also spend time on mailing lists and answering support queries in LP. More detailed information can be found on the Wiki (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TonyYarusso) and LP (https://launchpad.net/people/tonyyarusso). [08:46] how's the NUN going? [08:46] A little of each. [08:46] tonyyarusso is a VERY helpful user on IRC and a recent addition to our Operator team [08:46] tonyyarusso: is a very cool guy, always there to help. [08:46] When we have stuff, it's awesome. Although, sometimes we lack instructors for classes - the one I did was a pretty last minute fill in. [08:46] tonyyarusso is an awesome addition to the -ca loco team :) [08:47] I have seen him work in #ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic, always very helpful, very knowledgeable, and very polite [08:47] he is the only person who is actually patient enough to sort through my numerous and various computer woes === lophylap formally vouches for tonyyarusso === lophylap is now known as lophyte === MikeB- [n=dbasinge@stffp11-210.staff.library.utah.edu] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [08:47] hi lophyte :) [08:47] tonyyarusso: are you often acting as an OP on IRC? [08:47] For NUN stuff, I think it would be great if we could expand our base of instructors. A lot of the stuff we do is pretty basic, but people hear "teach" and aren't sure if they're qualified. === slomo_ [n=slomo@ubuntu/member/slomo] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [08:48] sabdfl: Every day for the last what, week and a half now? [08:48] he's been doing well :) [08:48] tonyyarusso: how long have you been an active contributor? [08:49] sabdfl: Well, I started giving answers that others had given me on IRC pretty much the same week I started. It was probably four months or so in (after aug 05) that the amount I could give back was reaching a critical mass === heno [n=henrik@ubuntu/member/heno] has joined #ubuntu-meeting [08:49] ok, +1 from me for a sustained and significant contribution, mostly in user support [08:49] tonyyarusso has been an active contributor to the the UWN and the Canadian Team [08:49] Beyond IRC, other things started falling into place around this time - Feb last year. [08:50] tonyyarusso is an asset to the Ubuntu community [08:50] +1 for tonyyarusso ! [08:50] tonyyarusso is the king of canada [08:50] lol [08:50] srsly, he is mega awesome and all kinds of things. [08:50] +1 from me too [08:51] congrats, tonyyarusso 8) [08:51] grats, tonyyarusso :) [08:51] yay!! ^^ [08:51] congrats, tonyyarusso [08:51] well done [08:51] congrats tony :) [08:51] My long-term future project is looking at an Ojibwe translation, which I expect will be slow going, but super cool :) [08:51] Thanks all!

[08:53] two quick announcements from the CC, based on a call we had earlier [08:54] we have all approved the idea of creating a new position of "CC Secretary" [08:54] and we have invited Seveas to take that office as its founding title holder :-) [08:54] Seveas makes a huge contribution to ubuntu [08:54] especially to keeping the CC and other leading groups on track [08:54] here here [08:54] and we think that's a job that deserves specific recognition [08:55] so, thank you seveas, and congratulations on the new position [08:55] also, we discussed expanding the CC [08:55] congratulations Seveas, if you're around still :) [08:55] i will make some nominations later this month, after discussing them with the folks concerned === sparklehistory [i=sparkleh@140.225.108.225] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"] [08:55] ubuntumembers will have a series of votes to confirm those nominations or veto them [08:56] we will have two types of nominations [08:56] some will be straight up-or-down confirmation/veto votes [08:56] others will be more like a race, with m candidates where we will accept the top n into the CC [08:56] is there launchpad channel where i can talk to admins? [08:56] EmxBA: #launchpad [08:56] cjwatson is going to step down from the CC after an amazing two and a half years of leadership there [08:57] re all [08:57] he will stand for the TB next (ubuntu-dev and ubuntu-core-dev vote to confirm nominations to the TB) [08:57] that's all from me [08:57] closing comments, mako, elmo?
