knomeYou can also see through the agenda we have today from the wiki16:07
knome[TOPIC] Making and keeping contact lists up-to-date16:07
MootBotNew Topic:  Making and keeping contact lists up-to-date16:07
knome[LINK] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Teams16:08
MootBotLINK received:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Teams16:08
knomethere is a contact/team list in the ubuntu wiki, which happens to be quite outdated.16:08
knomenot all teams are even listed in it.16:09
* tgm4883 will get mythbuntu on there an up to date16:10
knomewhat happens, when somebody wants to contact a team or several teams? where can he find the team leader contact information?16:10
knome[ACTION] tgm4883 will add MythBuntu to the Teams list16:10
MootBotACTION received:  tgm4883 will add MythBuntu to the Teams list16:10
knomethis is also not the only place where we have outdated information16:11
knomehowever as we have so little people taking part, i'll send a mail about this to the ubuntu-devel mailing list.16:12
knome[ACTION] knome mails ubuntu-devel@ ML about keeping the Teams list up-to-date16:12
MootBotACTION received:  knome mails ubuntu-devel@ ML about keeping the Teams list up-to-date16:12
knome[TOPIC] Making functional teams healthy again16:12
MootBotNew Topic:  Making functional teams healthy again16:12
knomethere was also discussion about the unhealthy functional teams at uds16:14
knomeespecially artwork team was raised up16:14
knomei've been hanging aroud their IRC channel a while and i can't say it's unhealthy, but it's very ubuntu (desktop) centric.16:15
knomethere isn't really any conversation about the xubuntu, kubuntu or mythbuntu artwork16:15
knomeany ideas how to get cooperation working better?16:16
knomehow can we contact the artists within several flavor teams?16:16
Riddellin kubuntu we are happy using KDE artwork for the most part16:16
tgm4883well for the most part, mythbuntu artwork consists of themes for mythtv, which we have been having conversations about in our own channel16:16
tgm4883We felt it better this way as mythtv themes have zero relevance in other distros16:17
knomeRiddell, what about countdown banners or wallpapers?16:17
Riddellknome: wallpapers are from KDE.  countdown banners we're done separately before16:18
knometgm4883, i see your point there. we also develop and discuss about xubuntu artwork on our own channel, but i've asked for some feedback for them on the artwork channel16:19
knomeRiddell, right. have your artists followed the ubuntu-artwork list and looked at what they were doing with the banners16:20
knomei feel the artwork channel should be a place to discuss every piece of artwork made16:20
knomeand for artists, a place to get feedback from other artists, not only developers16:21
knomeRiddell, tgm4883: can you think of pointing your artists to show off their stuff to ubuntu-artwork list or irc channel?16:22
knomepersonally i'd like to see what's going on because we could greatly benefit from the work of others16:22
tgm4883i'll point our art team to show their work in the ubuntu-artwork channel, there are only two members on that team so I don't guarentee that they will develop the themes in that channel though16:23
tgm4883but i'll get them to at least show their work16:23
knome[IDEA] Team leaders to encourage artists to show off their artwork in the artwork team IRC channel and/or mailing list16:24
MootBotIDEA received:  Team leaders to encourage artists to show off their artwork in the artwork team IRC channel and/or mailing list16:24
knometgm4883, right. thanks. i think that's valuable.16:24
Riddellknome: we don't have artists16:24
knomeRiddell, right. so you would greatly benefit if the artwrok team could work on several flavors rather than sticking to just one?16:25
knome*the people in the artwork team16:26
knomei remember somebody saying that ubuntu studio is quite full of artists and they don't have tasks to work on. maybe they could help you.16:27
knomeRiddell, do we agree? :)16:27
tgm4883well if Riddell doesn't want there help, i'm sure we can find something for them to do ;)16:28
knomeright.16:28

knomesomebody has any comments?16:29
knomeok, let's move to the next item.16:30
knome[TOPIC] Restarting art.ubuntu.com16:31
MootBotNew Topic:  Restarting art.ubuntu.com16:31
knomeagain, i'm referring to the UDS session16:31
knomei don't think we can get really anywhere here as we don't have many artists here, so let's skip this topic if nobody wants to say anything?16:32
knome[TOPIC] Mailing list for flavor cooperation16:33
MootBotNew Topic:  Mailing list for flavor cooperation16:33
knomeagain, i'm referring to UDS session...16:33
knomewhen we had the session, we decided to set up a mailing list for all kind of cross-flavor information and cooperation things16:34
knomeLuis Guimera (luisbg) volunteered to create the list, but i don't know about the current state16:35
knome[ACTION] knome to poke luisbg about the cooperation list16:35
MootBotACTION received:  knome to poke luisbg about the cooperation list16:35
knome[TOPIC] Monthly coordination meetings16:36
MootBotNew Topic:  Monthly coordination meetings16:36
knomewe had a discussion about monthly coordination meetings like this with Emmet (persia)16:37
knomei see quite a little sense to pick any dates here as we have such a lousy participation16:37
knomei personally think we would benefit from this kinds of meetings16:38
knomeif we had enough people to participate and from different teams16:38
knomeany comments on this?16:39
cody-somervilleWhat would we talk about?16:40
knomeany arisen issues and needs for cooperation.16:40
knomedecisions which would affect other flavors16:40
knomedecisions meaning changing something in a package16:41
knomei talked with robbie williamson from foundations and he also took note that they could try to inform about things maybe broken a bit better16:42
knomethe meeting could be a good place to discuss those16:42
knomeit's also valuable to know how things are coming up on a different flavor16:43
knomemaybe there is something they might need a helping hand but are not quite sure where to ask16:43
knomeif you look at the wiki page, there is also some issues that arose in the uds session16:44
knomeany comments?16:45
knomeright...16:47
knome[ACTION] knome will talk with people and set up a new meeting for april if it seems worthwhile16:49

MootBotNew Topic:  Any other arisen discussions16:50
knomeanything you want to say?16:50
knomei talked with _MMA_ and i see this is something people have tried to get up earlier.16:52
knomemaybe we can't get it working now either or maybe we can.16:53
knomelet's end this meeting as it's starting to be a monologue.16:53
