| AlanBell | oops | 17:39 |
| AlanBell | czajkowski: ooooh | 17:39 |
| czajkowski | AlanBell: they have jobs over there, we dont over here. Just looking at all of the options | 17:41 |
| AlanBell | yes, don't overlook anything | 17:41 |
| czajkowski | AlanBell: have to keep the folks happy, they're not exactly impressed wiht me on a laptop all day doing Ubuntu work | 17:42 |
| AlanBell | I understand | 17:44 |
| AlanBell | mum still wants me to get a proper job | 17:44 |
| AlanBell | I give her a list of my directorships and job titles and committees and boards and stuff that I sit on, but it still isn't a proper job | 17:45 |
| czajkowski | AlanBell: same, but unless it's earning it doesnt count in her book | 17:46 |
| czajkowski | and I'm not in the mood to argue with the mothership | 17:46 |
| AlanBell | your presentation is looking great | 17:47 |
| czajkowski | AlanBell: thanks | 17:48 |
| czajkowski | need to tweak it a bit more this evening | 17:48 |
| AlanBell | I would cut slide 19 down to just a few bullet points, that text is too small | 17:48 |
| czajkowski | figure out the last two slides | 17:48 |
| czajkowski | as I've to go for dinner with the family for grandfathers bday | 17:49 |
| czajkowski | slide 19 ... | 17:49 |

| pleia2 | I am still recovering from vacation (hehe) so I won't be able to make it to the meeting tomorrow morning at 12:00 UTC, do we have someone who can chair? | 20:35 |
| dinda | pleia2: sounds like you had a great time | 20:38 |
| pleia2 | dinda: I did! thank you for your recommendations :) | 20:38 |
| dinda | pleia2: always happy to help with Vegas recs :) | 20:39 |
| dinda | ok, i'm timezone impaired so 12:00 UTC is that like a few hours from now or tomorrow? | 20:40 |
| pleia2 | it's 5AM pacific | 20:41 |
| maco | dinda: 0 UTC is a few hours from now | 20:41 |
| hypatia | i can chair it | 20:41 |
| pleia2 | yay | 20:41 |
| pleia2 | valorie: probably more appropriate to talk over here ;) it's 69 cents per copy for color, so yeah I'll probably just go b&w | 21:31 |
| pleia2 | the pdf on Resources is optimized for non-us paper, so I'm also modifying the svg for US + B&W printing | 21:32 |
| valorie | if we have pretty paper, it will still look good | 21:32 |
| * pleia2 nods | 21:33 | |
| valorie | and if we have bus. cards, we won't need a lot -- just a few attention-grabbers | 21:33 |
| pleia2 | yeah, if people want more info | 21:33 |
| pleia2 | I'll see how much pretty paper costs, I might just do 100 | 21:33 |
| valorie | CLS might use more, although I'm not gonna be handing stuff out there | 21:33 |
| valorie | I don't think there are tables there | 21:34 |
| valorie | it's an unconf. | 21:34 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 21:34 |
| valorie | might do a talk | 21:34 |
| pleia2 | yay :D | 21:34 |
| valorie | if I can get my head together | 21:34 |
| valorie | and esp. if Linda is still gonna go | 21:34 |
| valorie | (althara) | 21:34 |
| pleia2 | cool | 21:35 |
| czajkowski | aloha | 22:39 |
| AlanBell | hi, which country are you in now? | 22:40 |
| dinda | _old | 22:41 |
| dinda | ack, wrong kb sorry | 22:41 |
| czajkowski | maco: what does MOTU stand for ? | 22:58 |
| AlanBell | Masters of the Universe | 22:58 |
| AlanBell | which is a He Man reference | 22:58 |
| AlanBell | and She-Ra too of course | 22:59 |
| czajkowski | hmm | 22:59 |
| czajkowski | how to explain that in a slide | 22:59 |
| czajkowski | bah | 22:59 |
| AlanBell | put up a picture of she-ra and have done with it | 22:59 |
| czajkowski | hehe | 23:00 |
| Pendulum | or just put MOTU = Masters of the Universe and explain what a MOTU does | 23:00 |
| czajkowski | MOTU - Developers in Ubuntu ;) | 23:00 |
| AlanBell | well the point is that the repos are main, universe, multiverse | 23:00 |
| AlanBell | and the MOTUs can muck about in universe | 23:00 |
| AlanBell | as I understand it | 23:01 |
| AlanBell | although "muck about" may be a bit too flipant a term for the serious work they do :-) | 23:01 |
| czajkowski | lol | 23:01 |
| czajkowski | true | 23:01 |
| czajkowski | gah I'm talking in front of CLC and I keep forgetting what it stands for | 23:02 |
| czajkowski | this is not going to go well | 23:02 |
| czajkowski | and I've to leave Castleconnell in 2 hrs | 23:02 |
| AlanBell | He-Man fought skeletor, who did She-Ra fight? | 23:02 |
| AlanBell | City Learning Centre | 23:03 |
| AlanBell | She was only allowed to destroy robotic enemies which were her primary foes. | 23:04 |
| valorie | AlanBell knows a great deal about this | 23:05 |
| valorie | ;-) | 23:05 |
| AlanBell | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/She-Ra | 23:05 |
| AlanBell | there is nothing worth knowing that wikipedia does not know | 23:06 |
| valorie | I remember all the boys in the summer watching the cartoon beginning | 23:06 |
| valorie | all holding up their imaginary swords | 23:06 |
| valorie | I HAVE THE POWER!!!!!!!!!! | 23:06 |
| valorie | hilarious | 23:06 |
| valorie | but why didn't little girls have the same? | 23:07 |
| valorie | that makes me sad | 23:07 |
| AlanBell | I actually don't blame the parents | 23:07 |
| AlanBell | if anyone thinks I want, or am encouraging, my son to pick up anything long, heavy and dangerous and run about the house pretending it is a light sabre they are wrong. | 23:09 |
| valorie | they were imaginary swords | 23:19 |
| valorie | although there are some light-weight plastic toy ones on the market | 23:19 |
| valorie | I would have loved to learn how to sword-fight, though | 23:20 |
| AlanBell | yeah, I don't exactly encourage them either. Air guitars yes, air swords, not so much | 23:20 |
| valorie | it's very acrobatic | 23:20 |
| * valorie was a tomboy | 23:20 | |
| valorie | I wanted to shoot, and fish, and climb trees | 23:20 |
| valorie | and did | 23:20 |
| valorie | but also could cook my fish, bake a pie | 23:21 |
| valorie | etc. | 23:21 |
| valorie | I think those should be human skills | 23:21 |
| valorie | it's just -- those boys had a *moment* | 23:21 |
| valorie | together | 23:21 |
| valorie | there is nothing like that for girls | 23:21 |
| AlanBell | bet there is | 23:23 |
| AlanBell | probably singing into hairbrushes as microphones or something like that though | 23:24 |
| valorie | that isn't *powerful* though | 23:27 |
| valorie | there are plenty of bonding experiences, certainly | 23:27 |
