=== Rafik_ is now known as Rafik === Rafik_ is now known as Rafik [21:40] tyche -- here is the announcement - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/FocusGroups/Education/Events/01172009 [21:40] for one of the events [21:42] Times for the Beginners Team Education Focus Group? [21:43] oops... missed that 1800 GMT until done [21:43] that should match with UTC right now [21:43] OK, How long do you expect it to run? [21:43] its an open Q&A [21:43] I would expect it to go 1-2 hours... [21:44] but it might last longer [21:44] is that ok for it to be open ended? [21:45] I'll put it in for 2 hours. You don't want to have competition for the channel. -classroom isn't usually busy, except in spurts. But this way you'd have at least that much time. [21:45] cool thanks [21:45] also informing pleia2 [21:45] kk [21:45] It should be in the Fridge shortly. Just entering it in the Google calendar first. [21:47] cool... thanks [21:47] Will this be a regularly recurring event? [21:48] not yet [21:48] kk [21:48] we are working to build a recurring Q&A core, but not enough 'instructors' yet [21:49] can you add (in UWN) that the Education Focus Group of the Ubuntu Forums Beginners Team is looking for more instructors? [21:50] No problem. When it does become recurring, let me know, so I can mark the Google calendar. That way it'll show up so it will be entered manually in the Fridge calendar. [21:50] I'll put it as a note on the event. [21:50] cool. thanks. [21:52] PrivateVoid: See http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/1768 [21:53] PrivateVoid: See also http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event/2009/01/01/month/all/all/1 [21:54] cool... thanks [21:54] The first link I showed you is about how it would appear in the UWN [21:54] looks great to me [21:55] We'll get you trained right, yet. Hee hee [21:58] eventually [21:58] tyche, is is 'acceptable' to put information about books that are coming out that are on-topic to an event... or is that a bad thing? [22:00] tyche, like this -- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewYorkTeam/Events/20090108 [22:00] should I remove the books? [22:00] If you did a review of the book on a blog, it might go in a different area of the UWN. It should be something "On Topic" for the UWN, primarily about Ubuntu in one form or another. [22:00] not in relation to IWN [22:00] UWN [22:01] The event itself, the demonstration, could go in the UWN. I don't think the books could, though. [22:02] You need to list a date for that event, too. [22:02] I agree... in your opinion is it OK to put the information in the event description? [22:02] yeah... still editing the page ... just wanted to know if I should remove the books [22:03] As part of the link, yes. That's resource information for people that are interested. [22:03] k [22:03] I will have that cleaned up and complete in a minute then [22:03] Try to fill out the first paragraph more, so I've got some meat to work with when I write it up for the UWN [22:04] ok [22:06] dinner is served... will get it done after that [22:07] kk [23:01] Rinchen: ping
