| FFEMTcJ | mornin | 16:38 |
| nigel_nb_ | mornin FFEMTcJ :) | 16:39 |
| FFEMTcJ | hey nigel_nb_ | 16:40 |
| Pendulum | hi FFEMTcJ | 16:41 |
| FFEMTcJ | hey there Pendulum ! | 16:41 |
| pleia2 | oh hey folks | 16:52 |
| pleia2 | I think we're going to settle upon Jan 23rd for User Day | 16:52 |
| pleia2 | 16th seems too soon | 16:52 |
| pleia2 | so either 23rd or 30th | 16:52 |
| pleia2 | FFEMTcJ: I think you had a problem work-wise with 23rd? | 16:53 |
| Pendulum | either one works for me | 16:53 |
| FFEMTcJ | I'd have to take the day off | 16:53 |
| FFEMTcJ | but i can do that | 16:53 |
| pleia2 | ok | 16:54 |
| nigel_nb_ | When are we doing it? I mean time... | 16:54 |
| FFEMTcJ | 30th i dont work | 16:54 |
| pleia2 | nigel_nb_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDays | 16:54 |
| pleia2 | I don't think we've solidly settled upon times though | 16:54 |
| pleia2 | shoulds soon | 16:55 |
| nigel_nb_ | those times look okay for me | 16:55 |
| nigel_nb_ | and my tz too :) | 16:56 |
| nigel_nb_ | I'll spread the word on my loco too | 16:56 |
| FFEMTcJ | im fine with those times | 16:57 |
| pleia2 | ok, great :) | 16:57 |
| pleia2 | what is our strategy for finding instructors? do we have one? :) | 16:57 |
| FFEMTcJ | I'm asking in my loco.. | 16:57 |
| pleia2 | some beginners team folks volunteered, but never added themselves to the possible instructors page | 16:57 |
| FFEMTcJ | Ask other instructors who have tought in the past? | 16:57 |
| pleia2 | ok | 16:58 |
| nigel_nb_ | pleia2: do want me to check with BT guys? | 16:58 |
| pleia2 | nigel_nb_: I'm emailing the list now | 16:59 |
| nigel_nb_ | ah, great :) | 17:00 |
| nigel_nb_ | lemme look up the meeting and see who all volunteered, I'll try to track them on IRC | 17:00 |
| pleia2 | I'm going to go ahead and set the time and dates in stone now unless I hear any objections in the next 5 minutes ;) | 17:00 |
| FFEMTcJ | which day? | 17:00 |
| pleia2 | Jan 23rd | 17:01 |
| FFEMTcJ | ok | 17:01 |
| pleia2 | if it is actually a problem for work, please say so :) | 17:01 |
| pleia2 | the 30th is fine too | 17:01 |
| FFEMTcJ | either way | 17:03 |
| FFEMTcJ | just do 23rd and ill take the day off | 17:04 |
| _marx_ | either good for me too | 17:04 |
| FFEMTcJ | editing the learning page to fix broken link | 17:04 |
| * _marx_ way behind on this...getting caught up | 17:04 | |
| FFEMTcJ | didnt miss much | 17:04 |
| FFEMTcJ | something needs to be done about the wiki | 17:05 |
| * pleia2 fixes up UserDaysTeam some | 17:05 | |
| FFEMTcJ | uggh | 17:08 |
| pleia2 | what's wrong? | 17:08 |
| nigel_nb_ | anyone besides Hellow and forestpixie volunteered from BT? | 17:09 |
| FFEMTcJ | waiting on the wiki | 17:09 |
| nigel_nb_ | pleia2: that was fast :) | 17:11 |
| FFEMTcJ | not too much on the meeting agenda tonite | 17:13 |
| nigel_nb_ | today's meeting is about getting everyone up-to-date | 17:14 |
| nigel_nb_ | coupla changes in the asciidoc formatting which even I'm not clear | 17:14 |
| * pleia2 adds asciidoc note to agenda | 17:14 | |
| nigel_nb_ | ah, good that I mentioned it then :0 | 17:14 |
| nigel_nb_ | oh, BTW, do we have a "How to lead IRC classroom sessions"? | 17:14 |
| pleia2 | nigel_nb_: only https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Classroom/Guidelines | 17:15 |
| nigel_nb_ | we could do with a class for that one day | 17:15 |
| nigel_nb_ | probably on our moodle | 17:15 |
| nigel_nb_ | part of the "how to teach Ubuntu"? | 17:16 |
| pleia2 | yeah, something should be written for that | 17:16 |
| pleia2 | probably not for a User Day though :) | 17:16 |
| nigel_nb_ | i mean, I'd like to lead, but I have no clue how, so this time I'm listening and helping with everything else | 17:17 |
| pleia2 | nigel_nb_: did you attend any of the open week sessions? | 17:18 |
| pleia2 | this is pretty much the same thing | 17:18 |
| nigel_nb_ | it was at a bad time | 17:18 |
| nigel_nb_ | I only read the logs | 17:18 |
| pleia2 | the logs give you a pretty good idea as to how it's done | 17:18 |
| pleia2 | you get an instructor, they blabber on about the topic for a while, take questions | 17:18 |
| nigel_nb_ | you keep the typed stuff ready? | 17:19 |
| pleia2 | some do | 17:19 |
| pleia2 | I did, wrote up everything beforehand and pasted it into channel during the session, one line at a time | 17:19 |
| nigel_nb_ | beats typing | 17:19 |
| pleia2 | but some people just do it on the fly | 17:19 |
| FFEMTcJ | that was quick | 17:20 |
| nigel_nb_ | I'll just wait till end of dec and take any timeslot which needs filling with a topic that needs teaching | 17:20 |
| * pleia2 is on her game this morning :) | 17:20 | |
| FFEMTcJ | i guess | 17:20 |
| FFEMTcJ | im not.. | 17:20 |
| nigel_nb_ | "the legend" is back :P | 17:20 |
| FFEMTcJ | im not feeling right.. dunno why | 17:21 |
| FFEMTcJ | pleia2: is making my phone go nuts | 17:24 |
| nigel_nb_ | pleia2: got in touch with forestpixie | 17:27 |
| pleia2 | nigel_nb_: yeah, I saw | 17:27 |
| pleia2 | I am starting to worry that the BT participation will be very low, which is ashame | 17:27 |
| nigel_nb_ | lemme wake the sleeping dogs | 17:27 |
| nigel_nb_ | or whatever the saying is | 17:27 |
| pleia2 | :) | 17:28 |
| nigel_nb_ | pleia2: User Days is part of UCLP? | 17:30 |
| pleia2 | nigel_nb_: we're helping it :) | 17:30 |
| nigel_nb_ | ah, then lets get those people in here | 17:30 |
| nigel_nb_ | those 5 mins are up, you confirming dates and times? | 17:31 |
| pleia2 | yep, confirmed | 17:31 |
| nigel_nb_ | lemme mail my loco | 17:31 |
| pleia2 | Jan 23rd from 12:00-22:00 UTC | 17:31 |
| FFEMTcJ | pleia2: i got a couple of testimonials | 17:36 |
| nigel_nb_ | pleia2: I could use some help with drafting the mail, I'm not sure how to word it | 17:37 |
| Pendulum | pleia2: I can send an e-mail to the UW mailing list looking for instructors | 17:37 |
| pleia2 | ack | 17:40 |
| pleia2 | FFEMTcJ: cool :) | 17:40 |
| pleia2 | nigel_nb_: you can base some of it on the original email I sent to BT: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-beginners/2009-November/000100.html | 17:40 |
| pleia2 | Pendulum: that'd be great! | 17:41 |
| nigel_nb_ | thanks, lookin | 17:42 |
| nigel_nb_ | how are we going to do the "Advertise the day to the public "? | 17:43 |
| pleia2 | we haven't gotten that far yet :) | 17:43 |
| pleia2 | but blogs, twitter, mailing lists, fridge | 17:43 |
| nigel_nb_ | hehe | 17:43 |
| pleia2 | same way UbuntuOpenWeek does | 17:43 |
| nigel_nb_ | shouldn't I first announce and then ask for volunteers? | 17:43 |
| FFEMTcJ | sweet.. just got an instructor, and now have a class pending wife's approval | 17:45 |
| nigel_nb_ | w00t FFEMTcJ | 17:52 |
| nigel_nb_ | we'll have logs of the user days right? | 18:00 |
| nigel_nb_ | in case someone misses a session | 18:00 |
| nigel_nb_ | i mean, the session drags from 1730 to 0330 in my tz | 18:01 |
| nigel_nb_ | so someone is bound to miss the last parts | 18:01 |
| nigel_nb_ | pleia2: a suggestion about the formats discussion that happened yday | 18:04 |
| FFEMTcJ | yes | 18:04 |
| nigel_nb_ | good, I need to assure my loco | 18:05 |
| FFEMTcJ | yes, re: logs | 18:05 |
| nigel_nb_ | I know, I guessed | 18:06 |
| _marx_ | time slots will be refined later? | 18:21 |
| EsatYuce | hi | 18:24 |
| FFEMTcJ | hi | 18:25 |

| FFEMTcJ | What about Ubuntu? | 18:31 |
| TheErk | I am moderately neato | 18:32 |
| EsatYuce | what is neato? | 18:33 |
| TheErk | Neato is an ancient Sumarian word. It means better than average but not fantastic. | 18:34 |
| pleia2 | _marx_: yeah, time slots will be sorted later, I just wanted to get an idea of when people were available first thing, so we can shuffle as needed | 18:38 |
| pleia2 | _marx_: and thanks for adding yourself :) | 18:38 |
| _marx_ | np pleia2 I'm just looking at what doctormo has worked up; off for a bit of r-n-r now | 18:42 |
| BiosElement | Hey pleia2 know anyone who'd care to write a guide for generating SSH keys and uploading them to launchpad? I'd write it but I'm pretty bad with SSH Keys. >.> | 18:49 |
| FFEMTcJ | BiosElement: there already is one.. on launchpad | 18:50 |
| nigel_nb_ | BiosElement: I've written it alreaday | 18:50 |

| BiosElement | nigel_nb_: Probably because LP borked itself >.> | 18:53 |
| nigel_nb_ | a few refreshes did the trick | 18:54 |
| nigel_nb_ | lemme tell the good folks at launchpad about it though | 18:54 |
| nigel_nb_ | okay, as per the guys in #launchpad, loggerhead, the BZR web interface is broken | 18:58 |
| pleia2 | :( | 18:59 |
| nigel_nb_ | which means, you'll have to pull my branch and look inside it | 18:59 |
| nigel_nb_ | bzr branch lp:~nigelbabu/ubuntu-learning-materials/bazaar-introduction | 18:59 |
| nigel_nb_ | w00t, one more volunteer | 19:01 |

| EsatYuce | the button of the Vodafone site doesnt run. WHY? | 19:15 |

| EsatYuce | i typed my message, then i click "Send" button, but it doesnt run | 19:18 |
| nigel_nb_ | EsatYuce: switch over to #ubuntu-beginners-help ,not the right place here | 19:18 |
