[09:39] <P235> hi
[09:40] <lophyte> hey folks
[09:40] <lophyte> we'll be starting in about 20 minutes I assume :)
[09:40] <P235> am I here at the right time?
[09:40] <P235> ah, okay
[09:40] <P235> what is the meeting for?
[09:41] <lophyte> pending me washing the kitchen floor and Burgundavia showing up
[09:41] <lophyte> just general discussion, mostly
[09:41] <lophyte> I'll post the agenda on the wiki, one sec
[09:41] <P235> sounds good.  I'm new so any guidance is welcome.
[09:43] <Skapi_> hallos! I'm new as well
[09:43] <lophyte> for the most part, we're going to be talking about ubuntu.ca, as well as discussing the creation of new local subgroups
[09:43] <stgraber> @schedule Zurich

[09:44] <P235> okay
[09:44] <P235> P235
[09:46] <P235> does anyone have any useful online linux learning resources?  I'm always looking to expand my bookmarks.
[09:48] <lophyte> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings
[09:48] <lophyte> today's agenda
[09:48] <lophyte> note that the agenda is open
[09:48] <lophyte> so if you have things you'd like to say, questions you'd like to ask, etc. they can be added
[09:49] <P235> I see
[09:54] <P235> darn...looks like I'm going to miss out on the meeting
[09:54] <lophyte> why?
[09:54] <P235> i have to run an unexpected errand.
[09:55] <lophyte> ah.. well, notes will be posted on the wiki and on the mailing list, and logs can be found at the URL above
[09:55] <P235> sounds good.  Good to meet you lophyte
[09:56] <P235> How often does the group have meetings?
[09:58] <lophyte> P235: we're gonna try to make them monthly
[09:59] <P235> Aw...so much for my good timing.  I'll sign up for the mailing list then.  Have a good day everyone.
[09:59] <lophyte> you too :)
[10:01] <lophyte> who's here for the ubuntu canada meeting?
[10:02] <Skapi_> I am :)
[10:03] <lophyte> hehe, only you? :P
[10:03] <futz48> the other 86 people are here by accident ;-)
[10:04] <lophyte> anyone else?
[10:07] <futz48> wow! pretty interesting meeting...
[10:07] <lophyte> indeed
[10:07] <futz48> don't all talk at once
[10:08] <despot32> yeah that could be hard to follow
[10:08] <lophyte> I'm waiting for more people to show up before beginning
[10:08] <futz48> k
[10:08] <lophyte> most importantly the ubuntu canada leader
[10:09] <futz48> I'm new to this group thing - what is the purpose of local groups?
[10:09] <despot32> to group locally
[10:09] <futz48> or whatever they're called
[10:09] <lophyte> local community teams more or less serve the purpose of local advocacy and support
[10:09] <futz48> clubs, like?
[10:09] <futz48> oh, ok
[10:09] <lophyte> and in most countries they also work on localization/translations
[10:10] <lophyte> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeams for more info :)
[10:10] <despot32> i do not think i can join. i am not sufficiently loco :(
[10:10] <lophyte> lol
[10:10] <futz48> so we should, like, translate, eh? ya hoser :-D
[10:10] <lophyte> haha
[10:11] <lophyte> "You reallywant to close Firefox, eh?"
[10:11] <lophyte> that'd be pretty funny
[10:11] <futz48> hehehe
[10:11] <futz48> "This might take a while. Go get a beer."
[10:12] <despot32> foreach $line ($manpages) { $manpages-ca .= ", eh?"; }
[10:12] <lophyte> lmao
[10:14] <lophyte> my CPU load graph looks like a sine wave
[10:14] <despot32> i don't look at my cpu load graph. that would use too much cpu
[10:14] <lophyte> lol
[10:15] <lophyte> okay, well I suppose we should start then
[10:15] <lophyte> doesn't look like anyone else is going to show up
[10:15] <lophyte> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings
[10:15] <lophyte> that's our agenda
[10:17] <lophyte> perhaps we should start by introducing ourselves.. all 4 of us
[10:17] <darkenergy> uh, I'm seeing 87 members ...
[10:17] <lophyte> okay, perhaps 5..
[10:18] <lophyte> most people in here are idling and aren't here for our meeting
[10:18] <lophyte> anywho
[10:19] <lophyte> I'm Dave, it looks like I'll be heading up the meeting.. I'm currently leading the Toronto subgroup of Ubuntu Canada
[10:19] <lophyte> hey jamon
[10:19] <lophyte> welcome
[10:19] <jamonation> hi
[10:19] <jamonation> just starting?
[10:19] <lophyte> yup
[10:19] <Skapi_> I'm Skapi, hailing from Richmond, BC
[10:19] <lophyte> Corey hasn't shown up
[10:19] <futz48> futz from Ladner, BC
[10:19] <lophyte> welcome guys :)
[10:20] <despot32> alex, waterloo ontario
[10:20] <darkenergy> I'm Blaine.   Occasionally join in the Toronto meetings...
[10:20] <lophyte> ahh.. hey Blaine :)
[10:20] <darkenergy> :D
[10:20] <jamonation> jamon, usu. found working in cahoots with lophyte
[10:20] <lophyte> hehe
[10:20] <lophyte> welcome  everyone
[10:21] <jamonation> there a link to the agenda for this meeting on the wiki?
[10:21] <lophyte> yup
[10:21] <lophyte> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings
[10:21] <jamonation> ty
[10:21] <lophyte> before we begin, does anyone have any questions about the meeting or the team?
[10:21] <despot32> i do. where is the coffee
[10:22] <lophyte> haha
[10:22] <lophyte> I bet in your kitchen
[10:22] <futz48> in the grinder hopper
[10:22] <despot32> yeah it is, but it's like 2 days old. screw that
[10:22] <lophyte> lol
[10:22] <darkenergy> I've got tea.
[10:23] <lophyte> no questions from anyone?
[10:23] <despot32> no legitimate questions
[10:23] <darkenergy> onward with the question about the Cdn site?
[10:23] <futz48> yer gonna have to lead on
[10:23] <lophyte> sounds good
[10:24] <lophyte> Ubuntu Canada was recently approved by the Ubuntu Community Council as an *official* local community team
[10:24] <lophyte> as such, this gives us access to a few benefits
[10:24] <lophyte> one being that we get a shipment of 500 CDs for every release
[10:24] <lophyte> another being that we have access to Canonical web hosting
[10:24] <jamonation> shell access?
[10:24] <lophyte> I'm not sure what sort of access we have to it
[10:25] <lophyte> I just know that we can host our site on Canonical's servers
[10:25] <despot32> how local exactly can communities get?
[10:25] <despot32> cause i mean, Canada's quite the community
[10:25] <darkenergy> lol
[10:25] <despot32> can we do Ubuntu Siberia next?
[10:26] <lophyte> its suggested that you have a LoCo for a country, and then subgroups of it
[10:26] <lophyte> so, there is an ubuntu-us with subgroups (such as ubuntu-chicago) of it
[10:26] <darkenergy> does the site need to be moved?   is the current hosting a problem?
[10:26] <despot32> oh, okay. that makes sense.
[10:26] <lophyte> its currently hosted on an old box in Burgundavia's basement
[10:26] <jamonation> makes distributing 500cds difficult...
[10:26] <darkenergy> ie. does it have limited bandwidth, transfer caps etc
[10:26] <darkenergy> ah
[10:26] <lophyte> Burgundavia being the leader of ubuntu canada ;)
[10:27] <lophyte> so it'd be preferable to move it to Canonical's servers
[10:27] <jamonation> so there is a question as to moving it? why wouldn't we?
[10:27] <jamonation> faster, more reliable
[10:27] <darkenergy> righto
[10:27] <lophyte> no, that's not the question.. we are moving it
[10:27] <jamonation> good
[10:27] <lophyte> the question thats put forth to the Canadian community.. what would you like to see
[10:27] <ReK_`laptop`> hello all, sorry im late
[10:27] <lophyte> what would you like to see on ubuntu.ca/ubuntu-ca.org*
[10:27] <jamonation> the CMS is the question then
[10:28] <darkenergy> oh, lets figure out what before how
[10:28] <lophyte> yup.. Brian Burger, the current webmaster, wants to put a CMS on it so that community members can volunteer as editors and news posters
[10:28] <jamonation> well, looks like ubuntu australia is using drupal
[10:28] <lophyte> also suggested was a "Planet Ubuntu Canada," which is basically a news aggregator which pulls content from Canadian members' blogs
[10:29] <jamonation> waht are other LoCo teams using? planet aggregation?
[10:29] <despot32> i like that idea.
[10:29] <darkenergy> and are their going to be subsections for locals groups?
[10:29] <lophyte> darkenergy: most likely... Brian mentioned having a ubuntu.ca/toronto for example
[10:29] <lophyte> or toronto.ubuntu.ca depending on what kind of access we get to DNS
[10:30] <jamonation> would that mean changes to mailman or is that hosted elsewhere?
[10:30] <despot32> if you can get wildcard dns enabled you could just use a rewrite to map that
[10:30] <lophyte> jamonation: mailman is hosted by Canonical already
[10:30] <lophyte> lists.ubuntu.com
[10:30] <jamonation> it would be nice to have an archive of emails on the site, with comments enabled
[10:30] <darkenergy> probably just as easy to organize the subgroups in the CMS
[10:30] <jamonation> sorta like gmane, but integrated into whatever other CMS we use
[10:31] <lophyte> ReK_`laptop`: btw, welcome... our agenda is here: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings
[10:31] <ReK_`laptop`> thanks
[10:31] <lophyte> jamonation: good idea
[10:31] <jamonation> are the 2 or 3 people that volunteered to help with the site present?
[10:31] <lophyte> kind of like a forum-style interface to the mailing list
[10:31] <jamonation> yeah
[10:31] <lophyte> I don't think so
[10:32] <ReK_`laptop`> im one of them
[10:32] <jamonation> i think drupal has a mailman module too ;)
[10:32] <lophyte> ah
[10:32] <lophyte> I know that when we launched ubuntutoronto.org on Drupal, Corey had issues with it.. we'll have to talk to him
[10:32] <ReK_> but i cant start for another week or so, deadlines creeping up :(
[10:32] <darkenergy> what does Cory  like?
[10:32] <jamonation> anything python?
[10:32] <lophyte> I'm not sure
[10:33] <jamonation> well, whatever we choose, I can help with the theming
[10:33] <lophyte> I'll be posting notes from the meeting on the wiki and the mailing list, so Corey can respond to these questions
[10:34] <lophyte> ReK_: no worries.. we still need to move it over to Canonical hosting first anyhow
[10:34] <ReK_> what about phpbb? it has built-in groups, easily moddable and there are already cms mods out for it
[10:34] <despot32> i liked phpbb when i used it on one of my sites
[10:34] <lophyte> the issue I see with phpbb is that it wouldn't integrate with the mailing list
[10:34] <ReK_> how do we want it to intergrate? i might be able to work on that
[10:34] <darkenergy> and its got a history of security probs
[10:35] <lophyte> the majority of our discussion traffic is on the mailing list.. if we wanted to create a forum, it would ideally work with the list
[10:35] <jamonation> http://drupal.org/project/listhandler
[10:35] <lophyte> jamonation: checking..
[10:35] <lophyte> Drupal fanboy ;)
[10:35] <jamonation> indeed
[10:35] <lophyte> jamonation: looks like what we need..
[10:36] <darkenergy> so, I'm not personally convinced that drupal is the greatest choice if you want to get non-technical editors involved
[10:36] <jamonation> why not?
[10:36] <lophyte> drupal's content posting is quite intuitive
[10:36] <darkenergy> ok.   /runs for exit
[10:36] <jamonation> there is also a wysiwyg javascript editor
[10:37] <jamonation> no no, it's a valid concern
[10:37] <lophyte> darkenergy: ubuntutoronto.org runs on Drupal, and Kim has posted on it many times
[10:37] <darkenergy> LOL
[10:37] <lophyte> its almost his personal blog ;)
[10:37] <ReK_> about mailing list on phpbb: http://www.mail2forum.com
[10:37] <jamonation> how many of us have a personal blog or site?
[10:37] <lophyte> ReK_: checking...
[10:37] <ReK_> already done, with 2 way comunication between the list and the forum
[10:38] <lophyte> I know as a fact that people have requested we set up a forum
[10:38] <jamonation> if most of us have a site already, aggregating into a planet would be best no?
[10:38] <ReK_> yeah
[10:38] <lophyte> jamonation: yup.. but we also want ubuntu canada specific content as well, not just aggregated blogs
[10:39] <jamonation> right, so here again, drupal, bear with me:
[10:39] <jamonation> forum, integrated and installed in drupal by default
[10:39] <ReK_> we could get the planet to only read blog posts with the ubunu-ca tag?
[10:39] <ReK_> or ubuntu* might be better
[10:40] <darkenergy> if you're using venus its got good filters
[10:40] <jamonation> aggregation, module is included in core, allows the admin to choose whatever feed, in multiple formats
[10:40] <jamonation> content posting, done, mailing list integration, doable
[10:40] <lophyte> well, before we start arguing what CMS is going to be used, let's focus on what features we want
[10:40] <jamonation> I'll make a list on the wiki page?
[10:41] <ReK_> so far im seeing news post, mailing list, basic forums and planet-style post aggregation
[10:41] <ReK_> although the latter could be seperated out of the cms easily
[10:41] <jamonation> same goes for the forum
[10:42] <jamonation> though a single sign on auth mechanism is preferable
[10:42] <jamonation> what about wiki? just use the main ubuntu wiki?
[10:42] <ReK_> if we can use the forum to make news posts by using user groups/hidden forums, it would be extremely simplistic for editors
[10:43] <lophyte> yup...
[10:43] <jamonation> hey one sec. lets take a step back...
[10:43] <lophyte> any and all wiki needs are met by the existing wiki
[10:43] <jamonation> what are we trying to do with the site? we have it, but why? what is it's purpose?
[10:43] <jamonation> if we start there, the CMS and feature will follow
[10:43] <lophyte> a community portal, I would say
[10:43] <ReK_> news, a place to gather and talk
[10:43] <ReK_> what he said, basically :P
[10:44] <lophyte> it would serve the news function it currently serves
[10:44] <jamonation> ok, so a portal to events, thoughts, howtos, mailing list?
[10:44] <lophyte> yup
[10:44] <jamonation> right
[10:44] <ReK_> I could see other features n the future, like a downloads section, media gallery
[10:44] <lophyte> a photo gallery was also suggested
[10:44] <jamonation> photos/videos/podcasts?
[10:45] <lophyte> videos could be hosted on youtube or ubuntuvideo.com and linked to from ubuntu.ca
[10:45] <despot32> yeah
[10:45] <despot32> this sounds quite complicated
[10:45] <lophyte> how so?
[10:45] <ReK_> if were going for a gallery, id suggest this: http://gallery.menalto.com/
[10:45] <ReK_> we use it for the dystopia pr gallery
[10:46] <despot32> i mean, will people have use for all these features? sounds like a lot
[10:46] <darkenergy> I think you probably want to find out what Canonical will supply before selecting packages
[10:46] <lophyte> agreed
[10:46] <darkenergy> ditto
[10:46] <jamonation> i think they'll do whatever runs on the lamp stack
[10:46] <lophyte> despot32: news and forums isn't complicated
[10:46] <despot32> no, not at all
[10:46] <lophyte> other features can be added later, if needed
[10:46] <despot32> but videos?
[10:46] <jamonation> there's a gallery plugin for drupal :)
[10:46] <ReK_> and everything else is gravy that you dopnt have to go to if you dont want
[10:46] <despot32> i mean are we gonna make ubuntu films?
[10:46] <darkenergy> yeah, but you need community first.   if you supply empty space it won't be all that inviting
[10:47] <lophyte> despot32: Ubuntu Toronto is planning to :)
[10:47] <lophyte> but
[10:47] <ReK_> well, see, this is why i said i could see these features later
[10:47] <lophyte> let's get back to the point...
[10:47] <lophyte> we've got:
[10:47] <lophyte> 1) news
[10:47] <lophyte> 2) mailing list-integated forums
[10:47] <lophyte> 3) news aggregator
[10:47] <lophyte> I think this is a good place to start
[10:47] <despot32> those 3 sound good
[10:48] <jamonation> yeah
[10:48] <despot32> brb...
[10:48] <lophyte> anything further can be added later, if needed
[10:48] <jamonation> apart from mailing list, I think pretty much any CMS will suffice
[10:48] <lophyte> I agree
[10:48] <lophyte> I'd suggest Drupal as well
[10:49] <lophyte> we'll see  what Brian and Corey think
[10:49] <ReK_> im still partial to phpbb, it can do everything but news aggregation and is more user-friendly for the editors
[10:49] <jamonation> anyone else?
[10:49] <jamonation> ReK_: but for admin it is a royal PITA
[10:49] <ReK_> no
[10:50] <lophyte> phpbb isn't a CMS though...
[10:50] <ReK_> it can be modded into one
[10:50] <lophyte> that creates work
[10:50] <jamonation> why not go with CMS to begin with then?
[10:50] <lophyte> someone has to mod it
[10:50] <ReK_> i will, i have before
[10:51] <lophyte> rather than modding something that isn't a CMS.. why not go with a CMS to start
[10:51] <darkenergy> agree
[10:51] <jamonation> anyone used typo3 or other enterprise CMSes?
[10:51] <jamonation> plone?
[10:51] <lophyte> whether its Drupal or not isn't a concern at the moment
[10:52] <darkenergy> I used typo2.   it was ok but you have to be happy with ruby hacking
[10:52] <darkenergy> plone, sucks from what I know
[10:52] <jamonation> hmm, wait a sec., forums can go on http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=183
[10:52] <jamonation> which is the LoCo team portion of the forums
[10:53] <darkenergy> nice
[10:53] <lophyte> it could, but is it a good idea to duplicate discussions?
[10:53] <jamonation> it would do ubuntu more good to have them there too
[10:53] <darkenergy> integrated search if its colo'd
[10:54] <jamonation> it also has integrated rss, so we could aggregate that onto ubuntu.ca
[10:54] <lophyte> I wonder if there's a way to integrate ubunuforums with the mailing lists
[10:54] <jamonation> and to have all locos centralized would boost their profile to new users, since forums are usu. their first stop
[10:54] <darkenergy> and less admin too
[10:54] <jamonation> there are plugins for posting to mailing lists form a cms
[10:55] <jamonation> even wordpress has one for mailman
[10:55] <lophyte> indeed.. but I mean ubuntuforums+mailman
[10:55] <jamonation> ubuntuforums->ubuntu.ca CMS->mailman
[10:55] <jamonation> through rss
[10:55] <lophyte> ah, perhaps
[10:55] <lophyte> not sure if it would work the other way though
[10:56] <ReK_> that would be somewhat of a hackjob, we'd have to hide the 'news posts' coming from the forums
[10:56] <ReK_> and it wouldnt be 2wayu
[10:56] <lophyte> I was hoping that we could set it up so that the forums and the mailing lists would essentially be one in the same
[10:57] <lophyte> but I don't think its a huge issue to have it separate
[10:57] <ReK_> the way I saw was one sub forum would be the mailing list, fully 2 way. the other forums wouldnt, however, otherwise the list wouldnt know where to put new threads
[10:57] <jamonation> well, we know what we want, so lets put it on the wiki and more on to the next item on the agenda
[10:57] <despot32> ok back, sorry. headache.
[10:57] <jamonation> wait for Corey and Brian and then charge ahead
[10:58] <lophyte> good call
[10:58] <lophyte> the next item is regarding Ubuntu Canada subgroups
[10:58] <lophyte> currently, as far as I know, the only one that exists is in Toronto
[10:58] <lophyte> there's been talk of people wanting to start one in New Brunswick and Winnipeg, but I've heard nothing about them so far
[10:59] <ReK_> vancouver too
[10:59] <lophyte> how far is Victoria from Vancouver?
[10:59] <darkenergy> a boat ride
[10:59] <ReK_> a ferry ride
[10:59] <despot32> victoria's on an island
[11:00] <lophyte> ah
[11:00] <lophyte> yeah i knew it was on the island
[11:00] <jamonation> they might as well be 2 distinct groups
[11:00] <ReK_> say, 2-3 hours
[11:01] <lophyte> for the most part, I'd like to encourage everyone to try and start a subgroup in their area..
[11:01] <lophyte> its incredibly rewarding to meet with other Ubuntu users and do advocacy projects together
[11:01] <lophyte> it doesn't take too much time to start one.. choose a location, a date, and a time, and post it everywhere you can think of
[11:02] <ReK_> btw: ubuntuforums.com uses vbulletin, and i can find no mailing list plugin for it, so we would have to do it through rss
[11:02] <lophyte> noted
[11:02] <jamonation> failing that, or lacking critical mass, how about integrating with a local LUG?
[11:02] <Fujitsu> ReK_: ubuntuforums used to have a mail gateway set up to a number of Ubuntu lists.
[11:02] <lophyte> that works as well
[11:03] <ReK_> did they change forum software recently?
[11:03] <lophyte> if you feel you don't have the time or energy to start up a local subgroup, talk with your local LUG to set up an Ubuntu special interest group
[11:03] <Fujitsu> No.
[11:04] <lophyte> is anyone here interested in starting a local subgroup in their city or town?
[11:04] <ReK_> im interested in joining one in vancouver, and id help out, but i dont think i can take the full load until summer at least :(
[11:05] <jamonation> do you go to vanlug meets?
[11:05] <ReK_> im heading to the next one, havent gone before though
[11:06] <jamonation> they'll likely be pretty technical
[11:06] <ReK_> that fine
[11:06] <jamonation> but you could start by posting on upcoming.org and various places that you'd like to meet other ubuntu users at the meeting?
[11:06] <lophyte> craigslist works too
[11:06] <jamonation> yeah
[11:06] <ReK_> hmm, true
[11:06] <lophyte> or even on the ubuntu-ca mailing list
[11:07] <lophyte> just a post that says "would anyone like to meet?"
[11:07] <jamonation> as a start at least, maybe someone there would help out
[11:07] <despot32> at the next KWLUG someone's going to be giving a presentation on using drupal. i might attend, if only to be a smartass. lol
[11:07] <lophyte> lol
[11:07] <lophyte> despot32: you should start an ubuntu-kw ;)
[11:07] <despot32> where would i get members?
[11:08] <lophyte> uh
[11:08] <lophyte> U of W?
[11:08] <jamonation> another good spot for starting a sub group would be local college and university campuses
[11:08] <despot32> it's very rarely that i run into someone who uses linux let alone ubuntu
[11:08] <ReK_> Fujitsu: "There was once an add-on at vBulletin.org but I believe it was abandoned."
[11:08] <lophyte> despot32: I bet if you posted on the mailing list, you'd find some folks
[11:08] <Fujitsu> ReK_: Ah, terrific.
[11:08] <despot32> Microsoft's hands are heavily in the CS programs so they're all very Windows-centric
[11:09] <despot32> what mailing list? lol
[11:09] <lophyte> ubuntu-ca@lists.ubuntu.com
[11:09] <despot32> ah
[11:09] <jamonation> not engineering and physics dept's
[11:09] <lophyte> http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-ca
[11:09] <despot32> most people i talk to infer that since i use linux i must be homosexual
[11:09] <jamonation> plus most campus SACs would give free meeting space
[11:10] <darkenergy> jeez
[11:10] <lophyte> despot32: perhaps post on the KWLUG mailing list that you'd like to start an Ubuntu group? that might work as well.
[11:10] <despot32> that might
[11:10] <despot32> i think i will go to a kwlug meeting first though and see what the community is like
[11:11] <jamonation> anyone else want to start a local chapter?
[11:11] <despot32> oh hey, your friend Evan is doing the demo.
[11:11] <lophyte> LOL
[11:11] <lophyte> really?
[11:11] <jamonation> roadtrip!
[11:11] <despot32> yes
[11:11] <lophyte> jamonation: let's do a roadtrip to KW ;)
[11:11] <jamonation> yeah, exactly
[11:11] <lophyte> though I invited Evan to the next toronto meeting
[11:12] <jamonation> that's inter-SIG awareness for you
[11:12] <lophyte> despot32: you might find that the KWLUG is extremely techincal.. TLUG is like that
[11:12] <lophyte> technical, rather
[11:14] <lophyte> I think that's it for today
[11:14] <despot32> the latest legit post on their online forums was almost 4 months ago
[11:14] <lophyte> hah
[11:15] <lophyte> perhaps the mailing list is more active
[11:15] <lophyte> anyway.. let's wrap it up
[11:15] <lophyte> anyone have any questions or comments?
[11:15] <darkenergy> Dave, are you going to talk to Corey and Brian about CmS and what is available from Canonical?
[11:16] <darkenergy> and how does that get moved forward?
[11:16] <lophyte> yup, I will
[11:16] <despot32> if they will give you php and mysql databases, you should be good to go
[11:16] <lophyte> I'll post the meeting notes to the mailing list, and I'm sure a discussion about it will continue from there
[11:16] <jamonation> don't forget to put them on the wiki too
[11:16] <lophyte> that too
[11:17] <darkenergy> k
[11:17] <lophyte> we're going to make these meetings monthly
[11:17] <lophyte> so we should be meeting again in a months time :)
[11:17] <jamonation> put it on the fridge then
[11:17] <ReK_> heh, theres another feature for the site: a google calander
[11:17] <lophyte> the meetings? they are
[11:17] <jamonation> oh good
[11:18] <lophyte> well thats it for today then.. if anyone would like to stick around and discuss, you're welcome to hop into #ubuntu-ca
[11:18] <jamonation> later then
