[16:17]  * pleia2 knocks on wood
[16:18] <nigel_nb> good to know, get kicking soon :)
[16:18] <pleia2> thanks :)
[16:38] <FFEMTcJ> mornin
[16:39] <nigel_nb_> mornin FFEMTcJ :)
[16:40] <FFEMTcJ> hey nigel_nb_
[16:41] <Pendulum> hi FFEMTcJ
[16:41] <FFEMTcJ> hey there Pendulum !
[16:52] <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
[16:53] <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
[16:54] <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
[16:55] <pleia2> shoulds soon
[16:55] <nigel_nb_> those times look okay for me
[16:56] <nigel_nb_> and my tz too :)
[16:56] <nigel_nb_> I'll spread the word on my loco too
[16:57] <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?
[16:58] <pleia2> ok
[16:58] <nigel_nb_> pleia2: do want me to check with BT guys?
[16:59] <pleia2> nigel_nb_: I'm emailing the list now
[17:00] <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?
[17:01] <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
[17:03] <FFEMTcJ> either way
[17:04] <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
[17:05] <FFEMTcJ> something needs to be done about the wiki
[17:05]  * pleia2 fixes up UserDaysTeam some
[17:08] <FFEMTcJ> uggh
[17:08] <pleia2> what's wrong?
[17:09] <nigel_nb_> anyone besides Hellow and forestpixie volunteered from BT?
[17:09] <FFEMTcJ> waiting on the wiki
[17:11] <nigel_nb_> pleia2: that was fast :)
[17:13] <FFEMTcJ> not too much on the meeting agenda tonite
[17:14] <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"?
[17:15] <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
[17:16] <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 :)
[17:17] <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
[17:18] <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
[17:19] <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
[17:20] <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
[17:21] <FFEMTcJ> im not feeling right.. dunno why
[17:24] <FFEMTcJ> pleia2: is making my phone go nuts
[17:27] <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
[17:28] <pleia2> :)
[17:30] <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
[17:31] <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
[17:36] <FFEMTcJ> pleia2: i got a couple of testimonials
[17:37] <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
[17:40] <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
[17:41] <pleia2> Pendulum: that'd be great!
[17:42] <nigel_nb_> thanks, lookin
[17:43] <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?
[17:45] <FFEMTcJ> sweet.. just got an instructor, and now have a class pending wife's approval
[17:52] <nigel_nb_> w00t FFEMTcJ
[18:00] <nigel_nb_> we'll have logs of the user days right?
[18:00] <nigel_nb_> in case someone misses a session
[18:01] <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
[18:04] <nigel_nb_> pleia2: a suggestion about the formats discussion that happened yday
[18:04] <FFEMTcJ> yes
[18:05] <nigel_nb_> good, I need to assure my loco
[18:05] <FFEMTcJ> yes, re: logs
[18:06] <nigel_nb_> I know, I guessed
[18:21] <_marx_> time slots will be refined later?
[18:24] <EsatYuce> hi
[18:25] <FFEMTcJ> hi
[18:25] <EsatYuce> FFEMTcJ,  how are u
[18:26] <FFEMTcJ> good.. yourself?
[18:26] <EsatYuce> me too
[18:26] <EsatYuce> what about this Ubuntu?
[18:29] <TheErk> Hola
[18:30] <EsatYuce> hi
[18:31] <TheErk> How goes?
[18:31] <EsatYuce> so so
[18:31] <EsatYuce> your?
[18:31] <FFEMTcJ> What about Ubuntu?
[18:32] <TheErk> I am moderately neato
[18:33] <EsatYuce> what is neato?
[18:34] <TheErk> Neato is an ancient Sumarian word.  It means better than average but not fantastic.
[18:38] <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 :)
[18:42] <_marx_> np pleia2 I'm just looking at what doctormo has worked up; off for a bit of r-n-r now
[18:49] <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. >.>
[18:50] <FFEMTcJ> BiosElement: there already is one.. on launchpad
[18:50] <nigel_nb_> BiosElement: I've written it alreaday
[18:51] <BiosElement> FFEMTcJ: nigel_nb_Great to hear then
[18:52] <pleia2> nigel_nb_: link to the document in the branch?
[18:52] <nigel_nb_> getting it
[18:53] <nigel_nb_> why am I getting an internal server error when I try to see the contents of my branch....
[18:53] <BiosElement> nigel_nb_: Probably because LP borked itself >.>
[18:54] <nigel_nb_> a few refreshes did the trick
[18:54] <nigel_nb_> lemme tell the good folks at launchpad about it though
[18:58] <nigel_nb_> okay, as per the guys in #launchpad, loggerhead, the BZR web interface is broken
[18:59] <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
[19:01] <nigel_nb_> w00t, one more volunteer
[19:01] <nigel_nb_> Hellow will be leading a sesion
[19:04] <pleia2> :)
[19:13] <nigel_nb_> BiosElement: were u able to see that ssh document?
[19:14] <BiosElement> nigel_nb_: I found LP's SSH guide. Worked nicely enough.
[19:14] <nigel_nb_> great :)
[19:14] <BiosElement> Aye. ^_^
[19:15] <EsatYuce> the button of the Vodafone site doesnt run. WHY?
[19:15] <BiosElement> Um....what? >.>
[19:15] <nigel_nb_> EsatYuce: probably flash
[19:16] <EsatYuce> no
[19:16] <nigel_nb_> javascript then?
[19:16] <EsatYuce> yes
[19:16] <EsatYuce> you are right
[19:16] <nigel_nb_> site?
[19:16] <EsatYuce> yes
[19:16] <EsatYuce> Vodafone
[19:17] <nigel_nb_> uk one?
[19:17] <EsatYuce> for example: i want to send a SMS, i typed
[19:17] <EsatYuce> no in Turkey
[19:18] <pleia2> EsatYuce: you might want to drop by #ubuntu-beginners-help for Ubuntu questions :)
[19:18] <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]  * pleia2 isn't sure what these questions are, though
[19:18] <EsatYuce> pleia2,  thanks, i signed in it now
[19:18] <nigel_nb_> pleia2: trouble with FF and javascript
[19:19] <pleia2> ah
