cX-kadsWhat would I need to do to a hold realease party at my Universit?06:04
cX-kadsDo I need permission? and Can I get SWAG and CDS06:05
cX-kadsin bulk06:05
nixternalcX-kads: you don't need permission, Swag and CDs will more than likely be a negative unless you are an official/approved LoCo team06:14
nixternaland even then, CDs won't be released by release06:14
cX-kadsI know06:16
cX-kadsBut I want to do it for the next release and plan ahead06:16
cX-kadsWhat do I need to make an  official/approved LoCo team06:16
=== rjian_ [n=chatzill@203.111.235.139] has joined #ubuntu-marketing
elkbuntucX-kads, loco teams discussions/planning/questions usually happen in #ubuntu-locoteams06:50
elkbuntunixternal, anyone can request a conference pack06:51
=== nixternal will leave that one alone
elkbuntuhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuAtConferences06:52
nixternal*Conference Pack approval is at Canonical's discretion"06:55
nixternaland let me just say, either they used their discretion or never replied to my request06:55
nixternaland because of so, Ubuntu had the worst layout at this weeks open source conference06:55
nixternaland even Chris DiBona and Peter Brown commented on how they were't happy that we didn't give them something06:56
cX-kadsthx elk06:56
elkbuntunixternal, it was last minute on easter weekend. what on earth did you expect?07:00
nixternallast minute? 2 months ago wasn't last minute07:00
nixternalyou can ask jono and mark about it, they both received the information on it as well07:00
elkbuntunixternal, this isnt the chicago thing that cropped up last minute expecting a booth etc?07:00
nixternalwell the talks were last minute, the booths were iffy07:01
nixternaldoesn't matter though, even the other distros with their schwag got defeated in the talks and the battle of the distros :)07:01
elkbuntunixternal, i thought there was an event that was just going to be loco people attending until they had a booth and talks thrown at them in the last week or so?07:02
nixternalall we requested in the conference pack as stickers, cds, and flyers07:02
nixternalno, about 1,500 Chicago OSS people and non-oss newbies attended07:03
nixternalthe booth wasn't thrown at us, I brought it up jokingly with Corey because of a conversation we had last year07:04
nixternalwe still had our one booth, we just didn't realize how extravagant it was going to be, so I brought up the banner thing with him07:04
nixternalmonths back we were told a small table to distribute schwag at07:04
nixternalheh, it was kind of funny..all of the other distros didn't have many people around them. There were at any given time 100+ people around us and the Neuros OSD guys07:05
nixternalwe lured people in with cookies and pepsi, thanks to Google07:06
elkbuntunixternal, i requested a conference pack for LCA and got only cds (albeit 1000 of them) of only one type and a small handful of the stickers07:07
nixternalya, we just wanted a small amount of pretty much the same thing07:07
elkbuntubut if it makes you feel better, i will be proposing a spec regarding loco resources for UDS07:07
nixternalwe had about 50 to 100 6.10 CDs, and about 500 6.06 CDs07:07
nixternalwe left with none07:07
elkbuntu... if one can ever submit a spec to the sprint07:07
nixternalman, I don't feel like giving a talk tomorrow morning07:08
nixternalcan I hire someone to do it for me?07:08
nixternalI will say one thing that the LoCo has done, I am giving at least a talk a week now. Don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing07:09
elkbuntuif you can email me the history of the problem above such as 'when you found out about the conf' 'when you first asked for schwag' 'how many times you tried' and such sort of q's, i'll be able to call it as evidence if needed ;)07:09
nixternalI love how they tell me the other day that there should be about 25 or so people for the talk...umm it was standing room only..I was sweatin' bullets07:09
nixternalI can gather all of the emails and forward them to ya07:09
nixternalI think we found out about the conf in October. I will have to check on the mark and jono emails07:10
elkbuntuok, but remember sharing personal emails without permission is a dangerous thing07:10
nixternalwell, all it was to them was me asking if they would be interested in speaking07:11
nixternalI won't send their replies, which were both no, but still :)07:11
nixternalhaha07:11
elkbuntuah ok07:11
nixternalwell not no, but umm...WE ARE TOO BUSY!07:11
nixternalhehe07:11
elkbuntuheh07:12
nixternalactually I think Jono was the one that told me about the conference07:12
elkbuntuok, collate into one giant mail, preferably including header info for date reference, and hit my inbox with it07:13
nixternalor maybe Mark, because Samir at UIC contacted him first about giving a talk07:13
elkbuntuinclude the first contact from whomever, i'll be discreet with using it07:14
nixternalhrmm, Ubuntu Chicago is coming up on a year as official, we were a year old last week. I think it is time for some fresh leadership over there07:14
elkbuntuwhere = 'there'?07:15
elkbuntuthe team?07:15
nixternalya07:15
nixternalhah, I met the guy yesterday whose job was offered to me recently. and I hated the fact we had to tear him up in the battle of the distros07:16
elkbuntuheh... what job?07:16
nixternalthere will be a pic shortly, we are calling it "the hug heard around the world". It started out as Ubuntu and Red Hat/Fedora hugging, then everyone got in and had a distro hug07:16
nixternalRed Hat Marketing07:17
elkbuntuo.O07:17
nixternalbut umm...I kind of figured that would be a conflict of interest07:17
nixternalso I happily turned it down07:17
elkbuntuyeah07:17
nixternalI can't believe they still offered me a position after the interview when I told them I don't like their package management, nor their position within the market and how they target distros wrongly07:18
nixternalbut if all goes well, I might/hope I get this IBM offer as Business Customer Linux Liason/Manager07:19
tonyyarussonice07:19
nixternalgranted IBM isn't the greatest at Free and Open Source, but they would allow me to work and continue on with school and Ubuntu07:19
nixternalsome of the perks of trying to finish your masters at Kellogg07:19
nixternaland not Tony the Tiger Kellogs either07:20
elkbuntulol07:21
nixternalmy dad makes fun of that one still07:22
tonyyarusso"My degree is gonna be GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREAAAT!"07:24
elkbuntunixternal, any idea when jono sneaks off to brazil? you and joey seem to get to talk to him more than i do these days07:25
nixternalactually, the last I talked to Jono is when he asked about Ubuntu Live07:25
nixternalI think it is like right now07:25
nixternalif he hasn't already left07:25
elkbuntupoop07:26
nixternalprobably been a month since I last talked to him07:26
nixternalwow, been over a month07:27
elkbuntuah ok. i just figured you and joey were in cohorts with him when joey went all taskmaster on the loco meetings07:27
elkbuntu(and yeah, i know we're overdue for one)07:27
nixternaljust a little07:28
nixternalI haven't talked to Joey in a while either07:28
nixternalactually, I have only talked to #*-doc, #*-motu, and #kubuntu-devel07:28
elkbuntuhehe07:28
nixternalor #kde-*07:29
nixternalI am trying to spend more time with development stuff lately07:29
elkbuntufair enough. it is the business end of the cycle07:30
nixternalya, and after rewriting and creating a topic based help system for Kubuntu from scratch, I am worn out right now07:31
elkbuntuhehe07:32
elkbuntui know the feeling07:32
nixternalI think I am pushing damn near half of my life on IRC07:32
elkbuntulol07:32
nixternalthe longest I have gone w/o being connected to an IRC server is maybe 1 or 2 days07:32
nixternalsince IRC was born07:33
nixternalI went from BBS/Mud straight to it07:33
nixternaland I still can't figure it out :)07:33
elkbuntulol07:33
nixternalhell, I had someone (a girl) prvmsg me the other day with a/s/l and was dead serious07:33
nixternal12/f/in bed was my answer07:33
nixternalhaha07:34
elkbuntulol07:34
nixternalI was this .. close to blogging that one, but seeing the recent stuff that has been going on, I kind of figured that might be a touchy subject07:34
nixternalbut it is still logged for a future date ;p07:34
elkbuntui usually respond with 99/hermaphrodite/psych ward07:34
nixternalooh nice07:35
nixternalmakes me want to puke, but nice07:35
elkbuntufeel free to use it07:35
nixternalI just might add that one to my email signature07:35
elkbuntulol07:35
nixternalooh, I was wrong, in 4 days Ubuntu Chicago will be 1 year old07:37
elkbuntuhehe07:37
nixternalthank god for wikis and forum posts to keep you right on time07:38
elkbuntuyeah07:39
