[00:00] <bodhi_zazen> 'lo everyone =)
[00:00] <jamesrfla> Hi bodhi_zazen
[00:01] <bodhi_zazen> I have 17:00 are we ready to start ?
[00:01] <Joeb454> I have 00:01
[00:01] <Joeb454> so yes :)
[00:01] <jamesrfla> Sure thing. Just want to say something at the end of the meeting
[00:02] <jamesrfla> *2 things
[00:02] <bodhi_zazen> #startmeeting
[00:02] <MootBot> Meeting started at 18:02. The chair is bodhi_zazen.
[00:02] <MootBot> Commands Available: [TOPIC], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE]
[00:03] <bodhi_zazen> Not a lot on the agenda =)
[00:03] <bodhi_zazen> Silver_Fox is not here
[00:03] <Joeb454> I'll take that one up :)
[00:03] <paultag> 'lo all
[00:03] <bodhi_zazen> [TOPIC] Meeting time
[00:03] <MootBot> New Topic:  Meeting time
[00:03] <bodhi_zazen> OK Joeb454 , thanks
[00:04] <Joeb454> it's not like I'll be put on the spot or anything....right?
[00:05] <bodhi_zazen> Joeb454: do you want to discuss this now ?
[00:05] <Joeb454> do we have anything else to discuss?
[00:05]  * jamesrfla raises hand
[00:05] <Joeb454> if so do 1 first so I can read up on the subjet
[00:05] <bodhi_zazen> yes
[00:06] <jamesrfla> Does it have to be about meeting time or anything
[00:06] <Joeb454> I seem to have somehow unsubscribed myself from the mailing list, so I'm just reading the emails silver_fox_ sent to me
[00:06] <bodhi_zazen> OK
[00:06] <bodhi_zazen> basically, in a nut shell, there has been an interest in establishing alternate meeting times
[00:07] <paultag> o/
[00:07] <bodhi_zazen> after polling all interested parties, it turns out the most people can make the meeting if it is moved up 2 hours (2 hours earlier)
[00:07] <bodhi_zazen> there was a discussion on the mailing list =)
[00:07] <Joeb454> ok finished :)
[00:08] <Joeb454> well, finished what I have, not sure if that's all of it, but i get the jist of it
[00:08] <bodhi_zazen> So , for a 2 hour time difference, I think we can try alternating the meeting times and see how attendance goes.
[00:08] <Joeb454> I think alternating would work very well actually
[00:08] <bodhi_zazen> Does anyone wish to add to the discussion now ?
[00:09] <Joeb454> do we know if a 1 hour shift would work?
[00:09] <jamesrfla> Moving the meeting time from 7PM Eastern time to 5PM eastern time is fine with me
[00:09] <bodhi_zazen> How would people feel about moving the meeting time by 2 hours ?
[00:09] <duanedesign> i think the alternating is a good solution.
[00:09] <bodhi_zazen> 1 hour works better for me
[00:09] <paultag> It works fine over here :)
[00:09] <Rocket2DMn> Just a quick note, I think that those of us who can't IRC from work, moving up the meeting makes it a tad more difficult to make it back for meetings, but not necessarily enough to make it out of the question
[00:09] <swoody> either is fine by me
[00:09] <starcraftman> I'd just like to pipe in that I actually have class 2 hours earlier then transit, only just make it to late meetings. I may or may not make meetings if its moved up.
[00:09] <paultag> starcraftman: me too, but it's manageable
[00:10] <bodhi_zazen> I suggest we alternate meeting times
[00:10] <bodhi_zazen> some will make some meetings , others other meetings
[00:10] <starcraftman> I could prolly stick around on campus a bit, but makes getting home a bit of hassle. I'm just one guy though.
[00:10] <duanedesign> Rocket2DMn: +1
[00:10] <Rocket2DMn> Alternate would be best, then we only need to stress the schedule once a month instead of every 2 weeks
[00:10] <paultag> starcraftman: I do the same thing
[00:11] <duanedesign> Rocket2DMn: +1 again
[00:11] <bodhi_zazen> If attendance drops at one of the two times we can re-visit the issue
[00:11] <starcraftman> bodhi_zazen: have ya considered some sort of absentee ballot thing for important votes at meetings some people can't make? Just a thought. The topics would have to have clear yes and no propositions though and not be ambigous
[00:11] <Joeb454> bodhi_zazen: that sounds good to me
[00:11] <bodhi_zazen> people can make comments either on the mailing list or on the wiki meeting page
[00:11] <Joeb454> maybe we should try the 2 hour shift initially, then at that meeting, ask about a 1 hour move?
[00:12] <bodhi_zazen> so meeting times do not necessarily exclude people from discussion
[00:12] <bodhi_zazen> +1 starcraftman
[00:12] <bodhi_zazen> Any additional comments , otherwise shall we vote ?
[00:12] <Joeb454> o/
[00:12] <bodhi_zazen> yes Joeb454
[00:13] <Joeb454> Can we try a 2 hour change initially (so 2200 UTC I believe), then if that works well, keep it, if not propose a 1 hour difference instead

[00:14] <bodhi_zazen> Thank you all =)
[00:15] <bodhi_zazen> I have two additional items
[00:15] <bodhi_zazen> paultag: did you have a topic or item for discussion ?
[00:15] <paultag> Nope
[00:15] <paultag> nothing but FG stuff
[00:15] <paultag> but that can wait for FG talk
[00:15] <bodhi_zazen> kk
[00:16] <bodhi_zazen> [TOPIC]FG Leadership
[00:16] <MootBot> New Topic: FG Leadership
[00:16] <bodhi_zazen> We have discussed this in the past, but I am not sure if we came to a consensus
[00:16] <bodhi_zazen> what do we wish to do with the Leadership positions ?
[00:16] <paultag> o/
[00:16] <bodhi_zazen> See the meeting agenda for previous discussion
[00:17] <bodhi_zazen> [LINK]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/Meetings
[00:17] <MootBot> LINK received: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/Meetings
[00:17] <paultag> o/
[00:17] <bodhi_zazen> go paul =)
[00:17] <paultag> So: Here is the background
[00:18] <paultag> a while back I pushed to have "elections". There was little to no motivation
[00:18] <paultag> I think it can be self governed right now, and if it comes down to it, bodhi can intervene, step down with grace, ya know.
[00:18] <bodhi_zazen> so it seems paultag
[00:18] <bodhi_zazen> some of the people on the list seem less active =)
[00:19] <Joeb454> talking about the mailing list?
[00:19] <paultag> Being an FG lead, of course, I am a bit biased ( to maintain leadership )
[00:19] <bodhi_zazen> Joeb454: there was some discussion on the mailing list
[00:19] <Joeb454> bodhi_zazen: if it was recent, apparently I was unsubscribed (still confused by that)
[00:19]  * starcraftman goes and looks at mail list.
[00:19] <Joeb454> I always read it, but I don't often respond, I'll admit
[00:20] <bodhi_zazen> If there is no strong preference I will review the current leads and replace the vacant positions
[00:20] <bodhi_zazen> if you all prefer we can have elections, but I am not sure of the interest
[00:20] <duanedesign> if someone was interested what would be protocol
[00:20] <Joeb454> I do believe I stepped down from all FG leadership roles
[00:20] <bodhi_zazen> Joeb454: I understand, I get a TON of Ubuntu mailings
[00:21] <Joeb454> unless we're counting the council as an FG :P
[00:21] <bodhi_zazen> Shall we vote ?
[00:21] <starcraftman> I personally, don't see a need for voting. Not like we are an engineering society. My 2 cents.
[00:21] <Rocket2DMn> or are we....
[00:21] <bodhi_zazen> [VOTE]bodhi.zazen to manage leadership positions ?

[00:22] <swoody> starcraftman, +0 is against voting, -1 is against topic
[00:22] <bodhi_zazen>  -1 is saying we need to elect leadership
[00:23] <starcraftman> bodhi_zazen: k

[00:24] <bodhi_zazen> OK as there is no clear consensus either way, for now I will review leadership roles
[00:24] <bodhi_zazen> if anyone is either interested or disinterested (want to step up or down) please let me know
[00:24] <bodhi_zazen> I will ask from time to time in the channel as well
[00:24] <Rocket2DMn> sounds fair
[00:25] <bodhi_zazen> My other topic is new members
[00:25] <bodhi_zazen> [TOPIC]Membership process
[00:25] <MootBot> New Topic: Membership process
[00:25] <paultag> bodhi_zazen: o/
[00:25] <paultag> mathay: poke
[00:25] <bodhi_zazen> How is the new system working ?
[00:25] <bodhi_zazen> yes paultag ?
[00:25] <mathay> paultag: I am here.
[00:25] <Rocket2DMn> I'm concerned that we havent voted on anybody for a couple of meetings
[00:25] <bodhi_zazen> +1
[00:25] <paultag> bodhi_zazen: oh shucks. Nevermind, I misread that
[00:25] <swoody> +1 Rocket2DMn
[00:25] <paultag> Rocket2DMn: I was putting up mathay for this meeting
[00:25] <paultag> bodhi_zazen: mathay is going up this meeting
[00:26] <Rocket2DMn> With so many unvoiced people around, how do we not have new members up for vote at every meeting?
[00:26] <bodhi_zazen> is the membership process broken ?
[00:26] <Rocket2DMn> paultag, cool
[00:26] <Rocket2DMn> I hope there are others ready for this meeting too
[00:26] <paultag> Rocket2DMn: yeah actually
[00:26] <paultag> Rocket2DMn: I think pedro3005
[00:26] <pedro3005> hi
[00:26] <Silver_Fox_> I hear fg leaders are being reviewed  thought i should drop by
[00:27] <Vantrax> lol
[00:27]  * Vantrax just lurks unless he has an opinion
[00:27] <bodhi_zazen> LOL Silver_Fox_
[00:28] <bodhi_zazen> you are too late, I usurped the power
[00:28] <Silver_Fox_> Heh
[00:28] <Silver_Fox_> :)
[00:28] <Rocket2DMn> long live the king!
[00:28] <bodhi_zazen> OK, well please, lets revamp the membership process
[00:28] <paultag> bodhi_zazen: if I may
[00:28] <bodhi_zazen> bring lurkers into the fold =)
[00:29] <bodhi_zazen> sure paultag
[00:29] <paultag> bodhi_zazen: I think we should put effort into moving idlers into the team, if they are active. Also look to recruiting from the forums, and wait out a revamp.
[00:29] <paultag> bodhi_zazen: as you know, our membership cycles up and down with the release of the new Ubuntu
[00:30] <paultag> bodhi_zazen: shall we wait a few weeks, and re evaluate after 09.10 ?
[00:30] <bodhi_zazen> sure, I think some of the lurkers lood promising and I have given a few quizzes even
[00:30] <paultag> bodhi_zazen: we should look to activity as well
[00:30] <bodhi_zazen> Would be ideal to recruit just prior to the release, but I understand what you are sayig
[00:31] <paultag> bodhi_zazen: oh +1. But the releases always bring people over from other distros etc
[00:31] <bodhi_zazen> Shall we move to new members now then ?
[00:31] <paultag> bodhi_zazen: +1
[00:31] <swoody> +1
[00:31] <duanedesign> we added  a few people since the last meeting. A couple were 'window watchers' and qute frankly we havent seen much of them since
[00:31] <bodhi_zazen> Who is up for membership ?
[00:31] <paultag> bodhi_zazen: mathay
[00:31] <Vantrax> I think we need better way to engage people and get them involved on an ongoing basiss
[00:32] <paultag> Vantrax: Silver_Fox_ and I are working on it
[00:32] <pedro3005> bodhi_zazen, i am i guess, but nhasian isn't around
[00:32] <paultag> Vantrax: we can chat about it later.
[00:32] <Silver_Fox_> Vantrax, Its going to be huge when we are done
[00:32] <Silver_Fox_> Can I put my padawan up?
[00:32] <duanedesign> bodhi_zazen: PabloRubianes
[00:32] <paultag> Silver_Fox_: if he/she is here, yeah
[00:33] <bodhi_zazen> +1 Vantrax
[00:33] <Silver_Fox_> well,   no diegoTC is not here on the basis that I was not expecting to be either.
[00:33] <bodhi_zazen> I think really it takes people like starcraftman to be engaged in the channel =)
[00:33] <bodhi_zazen> thank you to starcraftman , Silver_Fox_ , and many others who have been active
[00:33] <bodhi_zazen> OK

[00:34] <bodhi_zazen> pedro3005: any comments ?
[00:34] <Vantrax> did he get the swallow question right?
[00:35] <duanedesign> I think pedro3005 does a good job in help
[00:35] <pedro3005> bodhi_zazen, hm..... i don't really have anything to say lol :(
[00:35] <starcraftman> sorry, I'm feeling low energy atm bodhi_zazen, why I'm so quiet. Still working on my proposal, if paultag also working on revamping membership we should talk some time.  Will get to it this weekend I'm hopeful, done lots of my uni work in advance. (oh and yes, my typing slowed)
[00:35] <bodhi_zazen> Tell us about yourself pedro3005
[00:35] <pedro3005> bodhi_zazen, except i've been visiting this channel for quite a long time
[00:35] <bodhi_zazen> how long have you used Ubuntu ?
[00:35]  * Vantrax is starting to think we should adpot the same system as ubuntu membership apps for bt ones (in regard to the wiki page and introduction)
[00:36] <swoody> +1 duanedesign While nhasian might not be here, I feel pedro3005 has been active enough that we've all gotten a good feel for what kind of person he is :)
[00:36] <jamesrfla> +1 Vantrax
[00:36] <duanedesign> he reviews logs and i think he shows a genuine interest
[00:36] <Joeb454> Vantrax: I think that's been discussed before
[00:36] <pedro3005> bodhi_zazen, about a year, although I stopped a bit in the middle
[00:36] <bodhi_zazen> Vantrax: we have for the most part
[00:36] <pedro3005> duanedesign, who reviews logs?
[00:36] <bodhi_zazen> Any other comments b4 we vote ?
[00:36] <duanedesign> pedro3005: you, well scrollback might be a better term

[00:43] <paultag> I'm a bit biased, I know mathay IRL, and am his master

[00:43] <Rocket2DMn> what is this RL you speak of?!
[00:43] <paultag> but I really thing that he is quite a good fit for membership. I support him 100%
[00:43] <paultag> Rocket2DMn: :P

[00:44] <Rocket2DMn> mathay, do you contribute to Ubuntu in areas other than the forums?

[18:02] <ara> agenda as usual at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Meetings
[18:02] <ara> [TOPIC] SRU testing -- sbeattie (Steve Beattie)
[18:02] <MootBot> New Topic:  SRU testing -- sbeattie (Steve Beattie)
[18:03] <sbeattie> SRU Activity for the past week (since 2009-09-16) has been very light, my guess is the alpha 6 excitement distracted everybody
[18:03] <sbeattie> * Jaunty: 1 new package in -proposed (postgresql-8.3) and 2 packages pushed to -updates (clamav, postgresql-8.3)
[18:03] <sbeattie> * Intrepid: 1 new package in -proposed (postgresql-8.3) and 1 package pushed to -updates (postgresql-8.3)
[18:03] <sbeattie> * Hardy: 3 new packages in -proposed (linux, linux-ubuntu-modules, postgresql-8.3), and 1 package pushed to -updates (postgresql-8.3)
[18:03] <sbeattie> * Dapper: 1 new package in -proposed (postgresql-8.1) and 1 package pushed to -updates (postgresql-8.1)
[18:03] <sbeattie> Thanks to Leonel Nunez, tz, and iGEL for testing packages in -proposed this week.
[18:03] <sbeattie> That's all on the SRU front, unless there are any questions.
[18:03] <ara> sbeattie, is it dapper still maintained?
[18:04] <sbeattie> ara: yes, dapper's server packages are still maintained.
[18:04] <ara> sbeattie, ah, ok, but not the desktop, isn't it?
[18:04] <sbeattie> Correct
[18:04] <ara> OK. thanks sbeattie :)
[18:05] <ara> [TOPIC] Bugday highlights -- bdmurray (Brian Murray)
[18:05] <MootBot> New Topic:  Bugday highlights -- bdmurray (Brian Murray)
[18:06] <ara> bdmurray, any comments about the last bug day?
[18:06] <bdmurray> Yes, we made some progress on the bugs without a package.
[18:07] <bdmurray> Particularly, thanks to jpeddicord and kamus!
[18:08] <ara> What's the topic for tomorrow's bugday?
[18:09] <bdmurray> ara: it is supposed to be pulseaudio and a community member is setting it up
[18:10] <ara> bdmurray, mmm, the page is not there yet
[18:10] <bdmurray> ara: yes, I see that :-(
[18:11] <ara> bdmurray, could you approach the community member and check if he or she finally is running it?
[18:12] <bdmurray> ara: yes, I'll ping them
[18:12] <ara> [ACTION] bdmurray to ping the person setting up the pulseaudio bugday

[18:13] <ara> [TOPIC] ISO Testing Tracker improvements -- ara (Ara Pulido)
[18:13] <MootBot> New Topic:  ISO Testing Tracker improvements -- ara (Ara Pulido)
[18:13] <davmor2> yes
[18:13] <ara> I know this is an old, old issue, but there are some improvements that should be easy to fix
[18:13] <ara> The list that I have (some require some more work)
[18:14] <davmor2> lp and report
[18:14] <ara> Reports working again and better
[18:14] <ara> • Launchpad data fixed
[18:14] <ara> • Assign something to yourself
[18:14] <ara> • Launchpad Open ID
[18:14] <ara> do you think of anything else?
[18:14] <davmor2> assigning works ara
[18:14] <ara> davmor2, it is on the list :)
[18:15] <ara> davmor2, or you mean assigning something to someone else
[18:15] <ara> ?
[18:15] <davmor2> ara: I'm saying it works can't understand why it's on the list
[18:16] <bdmurray> I think she means assign an iso / test to yourself
[18:16] <ara> bdmurray, that's what I meant
[18:16] <bdmurray> to show that it is in progress
[18:16] <fader_> e.g. "I plan to work on this test case next"
[18:16] <sbeattie> a working admin interface, where adding testcases doesn't require writing sql.
[18:17] <davmor2> the report working again would be the most useful thing which I think needs the lp data fix in place too
[18:17] <davmor2> ara: right with you now
[18:17] <bdmurray> Is there a bug open about the lp data?
[18:17] <ara> no idea
[18:18] <ara> which lp project contains the data of the iso tracker?
[18:18] <bdmurray> ubuntu-qa-website
[18:18] <bdmurray> https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-qa-website/+bugs
[18:18] <davmor2> bdmurray: pass.  but it might be that the tracker needs an update to use the data rather then the other way round
[18:19] <bdmurray> Okay, I'll look into making bugs display information again in the tracker.
[18:20] <ara> bdmurray, thanks!
[18:20] <davmor2> bdmurray: thanks
[18:20] <ara> I will try to triage the list of bugs a bit
[18:20] <davmor2> right need to go sorry
[18:20] <bdmurray> We should open a bug on it though
[18:20] <ara> bdmurray, indeed, I'll do it
[18:21] <bdmurray> ara: great, thanks

[18:22] <ara> OK, last topic in the agenda:
[18:22] <ara> [TOPIC] QA Meetings logs -- ara (Ara Pulido)
[18:22] <MootBot> New Topic:  QA Meetings logs -- ara (Ara Pulido)
[18:23] <ara> The meetings page at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Meetings hasn't been updated in a while
[18:23] <ara> what do you guys think is better to maintain there, only the Mootbot summary? the logs? a human written summary?
[18:24] <ara> I am worried that people that cannot attend the meeting, never have access to the discussed data
[18:24] <bdmurray> I think a human written summary would likely be the most useful
[18:25] <bdmurray> It doesn't need to be long just elaborate on the mootbot summary
[18:25] <sbeattie> I agree, but it's also he most effort, and as a likely low priority task for whoever decides to take it on, will likely get dropped (as has happened currently)
[18:26] <fader_> Might there be any community members who would be interested in helping out with this?
[18:26] <ara> mmm, what about copying the mootbot summary, and send a reminder to the owners of the topic to extend a bit theirs?
[18:28] <ara> I will send an email to the ubuntu-qa list to check with the rest of the community
[18:28] <bdmurray> sounds good
[18:29] <ara> [ACTION] ara to send an email to ubuntu-qa with the different possibilities for maintaining the meeting logs
[18:29] <MootBot> ACTION received:  ara to send an email to ubuntu-qa with the different possibilities for maintaining the meeting logs
[18:29] <ara> any other topics?
[18:30] <bdmurray> yes, I've been working with five-a-day stats some recently
[18:30] <bdmurray> http://qa.ubuntu.com/reports/five-a-day/
[18:30] <MootBot> LINK received:  http://qa.ubuntu.com/reports/five-a-day/
[18:31] <bdmurray> I've made some changes to the weekly stats and added the daily stats
[18:31] <bdmurray> blog post to follow sometime soon ;-)
[18:32] <ara> Nice!
[18:34] <ara> anything else?

[23:12] <pleia2> jbernard_: are you planning on joining motu? (you can get ubuntu membership that way too)
[23:13] <jbernard_> that is the ultimate goal, though I believe I need a few more proof points to make MOTU, I thought becoming a member would be a good intermediate step
[23:14] <beuno> jbernard_, have your packages been included in karmic?
[23:14] <jbernard_> yes
[23:14] <nhandler> jbernard_: You can also apply to be an Ubuntu Contributing Developer (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopers#Ubuntu%20Contributing%20Developers) to gain Ubuntu Membership (via the MOTU Council)
[23:14] <beuno> w00t, that's great
[23:15] <pleia2> yeah, it's not really well-advertised I guess, but for developers like yourself we tend to defer to nhandler's suggestion
[23:15] <beuno> jbernard_, how about LoCo participation and such?
[23:16] <jbernard_> i've been watching the loco mailing list lately but haven't had much time to get involved, i live in a far away place in virginia, quite far from most of the contributers on the list, but it is something I'd like to do more of once karmic releases and i get some more free time
[23:18] <jbernard_> nhandler: thanks for the link, i will look into that. is that a required step prior to applying for MOTU?
[23:18] <pleia2> jbernard_: nice work, but since you're a developer and your core work here is packaging, I'm going to suggest you go through becoming a contributing developer and gain membership through the motu council
[23:18] <nhandler> jbernard_: No. It is not a requirement for MOTU. It is just an alternate method for people who are active in Ubuntu Development to gain membership
[23:20] <jbernard_> ok, that seems fair
[23:20] <beuno> jbernard_, awesome work though
[23:20] <beuno> packagers are my heroes
[23:20] <jbernard_> thank you
[23:20] <pleia2> jbernard_: and sorry for the process being somewhat unclear in this regard, the motu council is just much better equipped for handling these apps :)
[23:21] <jbernard_> no worries, thanks for your time
[23:22] <pleia2> thanks, great work jbernard_, much appreciated!
[23:22] <pleia2> ok, no delphiexile, so it looks like nhasian is up :)
[23:22] <nhasian> sweet shall i start?
[23:22] <pleia2> nhasian: yes please :)
[23:22] <nhasian> Hello, my name is Nasser Hasian.  I'm a member of the Arizona LoCo.
[23:22] <DiegoTc> go for it nhasian
[23:22] <DiegoTc> :D
[23:22] <nhasian> My wiki page is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/nhasian and launchpad is https://launchpad.net/~nhasian
[23:23] <nhasian> I've been using computers since I had a Commodore Amiga 500.  I dabbled in linux every once in a while with Redhat 5, Corel Linux, etc but it didnt really stick until I tried Ubuntu 8.04.
[23:23] <nhasian> Since then Ubuntu has been my primary operating system, and I've been helping out where ever I can in launchpad, ubuntu forums, irc, testing ubuntu+1 etc.
[23:25] <Technoviking> nhasian: nice body of work, what are your plans for the future?
[23:25] <boredandblogging> nhasian: planning on doing more with the AZ LoCo?
[23:25] <pleia2> nhasian: you're a member of the AZ team, but your app doesn't discuss how you've been involved - can you expand upon your work with that team?
[23:26] <nhasian> Technoviking, I plan on continuing to help new users install and migrate over to ubuntu in the forums.  I'd like to do more documentation work either on the wiki or my own how-to's.  i would also like to try my hand in packaging.
[23:26] <beuno> great testimonials
[23:27] <boredandblogging> wow, you got tyche to say something nice, kudos!
[23:27] <pleia2> boredandblogging: must have pried tyche out of his cave with snacks
[23:28] <nhasian> boredandblogging & pleia2 actually yes.  I participated in our AZ Loco installfest for Ubuntu 8.10, but I missed the one for 9.04.  I would like to get our LoCo to do more activities outside of the installfests
[23:28] <pleia2> nhasian: is AZ doing anything for the Global Jam in a couple weeks?
[23:29] <Technoviking> anyone here to cheer for nhasian
[23:29] <nhasian> even if its just for our loco to get together for a picnic or bikeride etc to help get to know each other outside of irc and bounce ideas off of each other to continue helping out
[23:29] <Joeb454> Technoviking: I'm here to cheer for nhasian
[23:29] <DiegoTc> Technoviking: i am here to cheer nhasian
[23:29] <nhasian> pleia2, not that i'm aware of
[23:29] <Joeb454> I would've written a testimonial, but that implied I was going to sleep
[23:29] <Technoviking> Any more questions?
[23:29] <duanedesign> Technoviking: i am here on his behalf as well
[23:30] <pleia2> great work, nhasian :) +1 from me

[23:43] <pleia2> fccf: ok, you're up! please introduce yourself and post a link to your wiki page :)
[23:43] <fccf> Greetings Board Members, My name is Hilaire Francis Nollette III and I am what I would consider to be an advanced Ubuntu User, as I have been using ubuntu for almost 5 years, wiki here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/metaeoc Lots to read there ... and lp http://www.launchpad.net/~metaeoc ...  See also http://tr.im/broadcastubuntu
[23:44] <fccf>  I am currently the sysadmin of http://www.fullertonfirstchristian.org:81 .. which is a streaming radio server, running Ubuntu Hardy, Campcaster (broadcast automation suite), Streaming out via Flumotion and providing the Java Client Cortado for listening to the OGG within the webpage ... the stream can also be accessed directly via http://www.fullertonfirstchristian.org:8801/fccf.ogg
[23:44] <fccf> I am planning on attending the Karmic Global Jam at the local university with My LoCo Team - Which became official yesterday.. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam ... I am also actively planning to start a Internet Television Broadcast Project, Still figuring out costs and needs, but that is a real possibility within the year, I am planning to use Ubuntu as much as possible from content creation to broadcast delivery...
[23:44] <fccf> A little more about me ... My father owned one of the first retail computer stores in california, and the first in the locality, this was in the early 1980's - I had tons of hands on expierence with what was at the time the latest technology,  and that has continued through now, where I have a intense love for computers, software and especially open-source. More recently, I spend much of my time consulting on various projects for a number of clients,
[23:44] <fccf> Some Like www.wqrz.org which is a non-profit broadcast radio station in Mississippi, where I hold the position of Network Technologist,  I am also their web-designer ( origionally built on Dapper, and moved to godaddy for hosting )... Other events include setting up huge portable networks @ ESPN's X-Games in Aspen Co. .. I am also a practicing Theater Technician and am playing around with some DMX stuff using ubuntu as a toolkit
[23:44] <fccf> I am a very new member of the California LoCo, so I haven't done much officially there, however... I will be attending GlobalJam and providing some duplication for the team as I have access to a duplicator
[23:45] <fccf> I welcome your questions
[23:46] <Technoviking> What work do you do in the California Loco (congrat CA LoCo btw!!!)
[23:47] <Technoviking> what are you plans for Ubuntu work in the future?
[23:49] <beuno> fccf, still with ys?
[23:49] <beuno> *us
[23:49] <fccf> Technoviking: Like I said, I am a new member of that group, not exactly sure yet, I do plan on attending meetings, provide duplication, and promote ubuntu... I plan on helping Campcater as much as I can in the way of writing and hopefully find MOTU developers to do the programming and packaging for a complete Campcaster for Ubuntu ( in it's current form CC is difficult for the end user
[23:49] <fccf> yes I am here
[23:49] <boredandblogging> fccf: evaluting membership is based on what work you have done within the Ubuntu community
[23:50] <Technoviking> Anyone have testimonials for fccf?
[23:51] <boredandblogging> while you have done a lot of work installing and supporting Ubuntu servers, your application doesn't say much about your work inside the community
[23:52] <fccf> I spend alot of time in #ubuntu providing support to new users, Grepping I have found over 10000 instances of fccf in my logs for the last 4 months
[23:53] <fccf> I also often deal with the people that make it difficult to provide support, .. Like this morning someone was asking for help with icecast on slackware, I was a little shocked that he was asking in #ubuntu and hopefully pointed him in the right direction
[23:54] <Technoviking> I think we are ready.
[23:54] <pleia2> I'm with boredandblogging here, I would really like to see more core ubuntu community work, maybe expanding involvement further with the Ubuntu California team, -1 for now
[23:55] <boredandblogging> fccf: I'd like you to come back after working with CA some
[23:55] <Technoviking> -1 here, I would like to see more community work or maybe some packaging wit campcater
[23:55] <beuno> supporting users in #ubuntu is very hard work. I think that you need a little bit more involvement in the wider community, integrate a bit more, and you'll be in a great position for membership
[23:55] <tatica1> he is a very cooperative person
[23:55] <tatica1> :D
[23:55] <beuno> so +0, if such a think exists
[23:55] <fccf> I'd be happy to continue in the right direction
[23:56] <fccf> beuno: that's a no vote
[23:56] <Technoviking> fccf: please try again in a few months
[23:56] <pleia2> fccf: excellent! please feel free to come back in a few months :)
[23:56] <fccf> Thank you for your time, see you soon
[23:56] <beuno> fccf, thanks, and keep on rocking
[23:57] <pleia2> ok, rockstar, you're up! please share a quick introduction and link to your wiki page :)
[23:58] <Technoviking> think he left?
[23:59] <pleia2> rockstar: you here?
[23:59] <Technoviking> rockstar: hello?
[23:59] <rockstar> Sorry, just woke up.
