| desertc | Any team leads here? | 02:31 |
|---|---|---|
| Burgundavia | desertc: sort of | 02:37 |
| desertc | I have been looking forward to talking to someone about team efforts. | 02:41 |
| desertc | But then, you were just telling me in #edubuntu that you wouldn't be able to help me out... Hmm! | 02:41 |
| desertc | I'll find one of the rock stars around here soon enough and start the conversations. | 02:42 |

| Burgundavia | hey Madpilot_ | 04:17 |
| Madpilot_ | greetings | 04:17 |
| Burgundavia | desertc: what are you looking for help for? | 04:19 |
| desertc | Just looking for an opportunity to help a larger effort, B. | 04:19 |
| Burgundavia | ahh | 04:28 |
| Burgundavia | well, there are not a lot of existing project at the project level | 04:30 |
| Burgundavia | there are some at the loco team level | 04:30 |
| Burgundavia | what sort of things did you want to work on? | 04:31 |
| desertc | Whatever I can do to help, mostly. What sort of things do you need? I go to many conferences and talk with a lot of educators, for example. | 04:32 |
| desertc | I'd like to follow the lead of others to promote the ideas of using Ubuntu in schools, for one thing. | 04:33 |
| desertc | What sort of projects can I get started on? | 04:34 |
| elkbuntu | desertc, have you talked with the edubuntu people on what sort of marketing they're after? you sound like an ideal person to help them | 04:40 |
| Burgundavia | hmm, well, we need some stuff to hand out | 04:40 |
| desertc | elkbuntu: Burgundavia said in #edubuntu that I should come here to ask. | 04:40 |
| elkbuntu | oh... | 04:40 |
| desertc | Low and behold Burgundavia is here, too! :) | 04:40 |
| Burgundavia | desertc: I am everywhere | 04:41 |
| desertc | But at least someone is responding. I've been asking around for the last couple days without much response. | 04:41 |
| elkbuntu | desertc, compiling a list of the queries that educators have about ubuntu is probably a good way to define what to put in a leaflet for them. | 04:41 |
| desertc | I'm not getting so far in the conversation that I get to a list of queries. I am not really sure how to approach the topic yet, or who the right people to which I should be talking. | 04:42 |
| desertc | At this time, I am looking to work under some bigger effort to follow someone else's lead for a bit. | 04:43 |
| Burgundavia | teachers are good people to talk to | 04:43 |
| desertc | That's not true, in my opinion. | 04:43 |
| Burgundavia | people higher up the chain require things like SLAs and boring junk like that | 04:43 |
| Burgundavia | that is a conversation for somebody at Canonical (or what I used to do at Useful) | 04:44 |
| Burgundavia | Userful, rather | 04:44 |
| Burgundavia | for a community activist, your teacher is your best bet | 04:44 |
| desertc | I am doing a ton of stuff on my own. I feel like that I can also contribute more by helping a larger effort. I'll keep offering to help for a while longer, and I can keep going on my own as need-be. | 04:47 |
| Burgundavia | one of the best ways you could help would be to tell people what you are hearing at these conferences | 04:47 |
| Burgundavia | work on some flyers, etc, based on that knowledge | 04:48 |
| desertc | Not sure how that is working with anyone. Maybe I am not making myself clear. | 04:49 |
| desertc | I'll check back with you all later. | 04:49 |
| Burgundavia | hmm, that went well | 04:49 |
| Burgundavia | ugh | 04:49 |

| desertc | This week I am coming up with a form email and send it off to every computer teacher in the Nashville public schools. | 20:42 |
| desertc | Any resources I can look at from people who have done similar programs? | 20:43 |
| juliux | desertc, perhaps you can ask Riched in #edubuntu oder #ubuntu-education he is the education manager for ubuntu | 20:44 |
| desertc | I haven't seen Riched online in a short while. I was looking for him. I wrote him an email several days ago that went unanswered. | 20:45 |
| juliux | desertc, he is busy with traveling | 20:46 |
| desertc | I left my telephone number... | 20:47 |
| juliux | ok | 20:48 |
| === MrM is now known as mrmonday | ||
| desertc | Does RichEd have a counter-part in the USA? | 22:21 |
| * desertc realizes he was expecting a call back from someone in South Africa. | 22:24 | |
| Vorian | desertc, you could try the loco teams in the us | 22:31 |
| Vorian | #ubuntu-us | 22:31 |
| desertc | I am involved with the LoCo teams already. What did you have in mind? | 22:32 |
| Vorian | hmm | 22:36 |
| Vorian | I think the Colorado team had done something along the same lines with Public Libraries | 22:37 |
| desertc | Same thing? | 22:38 |
| desertc | What do you mean? | 22:38 |
| Vorian | desertc, All I remember is a message was sent (in some form) to the Public Library system in Colorado. | 22:47 |
| Vorian | I don't know much more than that | 22:47 |
| Vorian | sorry :( | 22:47 |
| desertc | What is the page for the Ubuntu Marketing resources? | 22:53 |
