| ScottK | \o | 21:01 |
| Riddell | neversfelde, apachelogger, ScottK council ping | 21:01 |
| Riddell | rgreening: ping | 21:01 |
| neversfelde | here | 21:01 |
| ScottK | Do we have an agenda? | 21:01 |
| Riddell | https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Meetings | 21:01 |
| Riddell | which is out of date | 21:01 |
| valoriez | ScottK: I added my membership to the top | 21:01 |
| Riddell | exept for valoriez's membership | 21:01 |
| Riddell | so let's start with that | 21:02 |
| neversfelde | so let's start with that | 21:02 |
| Riddell | valoriez: who are you want why do you want to be a Kubuntu memeber? | 21:02 |
| Riddell | s/want/and/ | 21:02 |
| valoriez | I'm a writer, and I want to contribute | 21:02 |
| valoriez | I've started with Amarok | 21:02 |
| valoriez | I would prefer to start contributing to projects I use, and can help with | 21:03 |
| Riddell | the Amarok folks didn't put you off free software for life? :) | 21:03 |
| valoriez | rofl | 21:03 |
| valoriez | I'm enjoying the process of writing the handbook | 21:03 |
| valoriez | and the Insider | 21:03 |
| Riddell | what do you do for Ubuntu and Kubuntu? | 21:04 |
| valoriez | it sounds like membership will give me some in, to get the information I need to write well | 21:04 |
| valoriez | well, I started my blog, which does seem to be helping people | 21:04 |
| valoriez | I doubt I'll ever be more techie than I am now | 21:04 |
| valoriez | but I love hanging with technical people | 21:05 |
| valoriez | and I am talented at connecting people and information | 21:05 |
| valoriez | and supporting/creating community | 21:05 |
| Riddell | you do things with loco? | 21:06 |
| valoriez | have been with Linuxchix for about.....8 years | 21:06 |
| ScottK | What kind of support and assistance do you provide for users? (IIRC you said something about that on your wiki page) | 21:06 |
| valoriez | we're trying to get a LoCo together | 21:06 |
| Riddell | https://wiki.kubuntu.org/ValorieZimmerman | 21:06 |
| valoriez | it's been work | 21:06 |
| valoriez | not a whole lot of success yet | 21:06 |
| valoriez | but I'm not giving up | 21:06 |
| neversfelde | valoriez: I know how hard it is to write a handbook, and we really need people who work on the docs and the wiki, but I miss contributions that are Kubuntu related. You, seem to be very active in LoCo work and other Ubuntu things, so why Kubuntu membership and not Ubuntu? | 21:06 |
| valoriez | support and assistance through my blog, IRC, lists, and some forums | 21:07 |
| valoriez | well, I'm a KDE person | 21:07 |
| valoriez | don't really like the gnome | 21:07 |
| valoriez | I'm not religious about it | 21:07 |
| Riddell | presumably she uses Kubuntu :) | 21:07 |
| valoriez | but I prefer Kubuntu, always | 21:07 |
| neversfelde | and that's good :) | 21:07 |
| valoriez | and kubuntu apps | 21:07 |
| Riddell | "Washington Ubuntu LoCo" is unrelated to Washington DC Loco? | 21:08 |
| maco | lots of new-to-kde people stumble into #ubuntu-women, where she's very helpful (also, i was one of those ;) ) | 21:08 |
| maco | Riddell: washington is a state too | 21:08 |
| valoriez | neversfelde: I'm just starting with the tech writing, besides my blog | 21:08 |
| ScottK | Riddell: It's on the other end of the country | 21:08 |
| valoriez | so I hope to get there | 21:08 |
| ScottK | Do you help out on #kubuntu? | 21:08 |
| valoriez | unrelated in that Washington is a state | 21:08 |
| valoriez | ScottK: I've gone there a couple of times | 21:09 |
| === MichealH is now known as Guest7335 | ||
| valoriez | but it seems much more technical than I am | 21:09 |
| valoriez | I'm willing to live there more, however | 21:09 |
| valoriez | because IRC is a great place to learn about stuff | 21:09 |
| neversfelde | valoriez: you#re searching for "other tech writing and community building projects which need doing in K/Ubuntu" | 21:10 |
| neversfelde | what do you think that is? | 21:10 |
| maco | oh i know what nixternal would answer | 21:10 |
| valoriez | well, to be honest, I think the community side is lacking in Kubuntu | 21:10 |
| valoriez | seriously | 21:10 |
| valoriez | there is a lot of support for OOOObuntu | 21:11 |
| === Guest7335 is now known as MichealH | ||
| valoriez | by the structure | 21:11 |
| valoriez | but I'm always having to plump for KUbuntu | 21:11 |
| neversfelde | you are giving support? | 21:11 |
| valoriez | in my LoCo, in Ubuntu--Women | 21:11 |
| valoriez | and elsewhere | 21:11 |
| neversfelde | ok | 21:11 |
| valoriez | yes, and sometimes that is handing people off to folks who can answer their questions | 21:12 |
| valoriez | since I'm not very technical | 21:12 |
| valoriez | my enthusiasm has carried the day a few times | 21:12 |
| neversfelde | that's not a problem. I like what I see, but as I said there aren't any kubuntu contributions so far | 21:13 |
| valoriez | I'm not anti-ubuntu | 21:13 |
| valoriez | just pro-Kubuntu | 21:13 |
| valoriez | neversfelde: do you have any suggestions of ways I can improve that? | 21:13 |
| neversfelde | but I think I can give a +1, because I think you can help us | 21:13 |
| valoriez | my loco work, I consider kubuntu contributions | 21:13 |
| Riddell | Kubuntu membership, in my opinion, is open to people who are part of the wider Ubuntu community but happen to use Kubuntu as their preferred variant | 21:14 |
| neversfelde | valoriez: I am sure that you will improve this and on that basis I think you should be part of the team | 21:15 |
| valoriez | I'm not saying I deserve this | 21:15 |
| valoriez | however, I would *like* it | 21:15 |
| ScottK | Membership is for significant and sustained contribution to the Ubuntu project. It sounds like a lot of what you've done is outside the Ubuntu project (Linuxchix and Amarok) - It's great, but I don't think it goes towards membership. | 21:15 |
| valoriez | and will appreciate the honor, and continue to work | 21:15 |
| valoriez | well, we've been working on the loco for over a year | 21:15 |
| Riddell | it's the loco work which makes me want to give a +1 | 21:16 |
| valoriez | Vancouver BC is only 3 hours north of us, and they are on FIRE | 21:16 |
| valoriez | ours is limping, especially in contrast | 21:16 |
| valoriez | but all we can do is keep going | 21:16 |
| valoriez | Seattle is a bit of a Microsoft town | 21:17 |
| valoriez | lol | 21:17 |
| maco | valoriez: since you write a bunch, would you be up for filling in on the Kubuntu Docs stuff, since outside commitments have torn others away from it? | 21:17 |
| neversfelde | yes, we should not underestimate LoCo work, I'm doing it myself and it is often not easy | 21:17 |
| valoriez | certainly! | 21:17 |
| maco | (dunno if you were aware help was needed there) | 21:18 |
| valoriez | point me at something | 21:18 |
| Riddell | we have a session on it at UDS | 21:18 |
| valoriez | oh, cool | 21:18 |
| valoriez | when are schedules for the sessions going to be out? | 21:18 |
| Riddell | +1 from me for loco work and several testimonials about how helpful she is | 21:18 |
| valoriez | I've heard nothing | 21:18 |
| ScottK | The real question is would this make me no longer the oldest Kubuntu member? | 21:18 |
| valoriez | rofl | 21:18 |
| valoriez | I'm 57 | 21:19 |
| valoriez | ? | 21:19 |
| Riddell | valoriez: schedule isn't final until the morning it happens | 21:19 |
| ScottK | Yep. | 21:19 |
| neversfelde | the problem with LoCo work is, that the international team often do not realize it | 21:19 |
| maco | valoriez: check your inbox, Riddell sent an email today saying the stuff's getting scheduled overnight | 21:19 |
| neversfelde | ScottK: rofl | 21:19 |
| valoriez | woooo, I'll be the oldest? | 21:19 |
| Riddell | neversfelde: you still +1? | 21:19 |
| ScottK | valoriez: I'd also encourage you to hang out in #kubuntu. You'll both learn and help people with things that will help your writing. | 21:19 |
| * ScottK is +1. | 21:19 | |
| maco | mm guess i should say "first pass" at scheduling... | 21:19 |
| valoriez | ok, I'll do that | 21:19 |
| neversfelde | Riddell: yes, I am | 21:20 |
| Riddell | then valoriez is in! | 21:20 |
| Riddell | welcome along | 21:20 |
| valoriez | \o/ | 21:20 |
| ScottK | valoriez: You've got me beat by 10 years, so you would be it, AFAIK. | 21:20 |
| valoriez | thank you! | 21:20 |
| neversfelde | that's great | 21:20 |
| neversfelde | valoriez: welcome | 21:20 |
| maco | valoriez: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/other-kubuntu-n-docs | 21:20 |
| maco | woo | 21:20 |
| * valoriez waits for the limo to pull up | 21:20 | |
| * maco hugs valoriez | 21:20 | |
| neversfelde | and please have a look at the docs :) | 21:20 |
| Riddell | do we have any other business? | 21:21 |
| neversfelde | mhh | 21:21 |
| ScottK | Banishing nixternal for excessive bicyle riding? | 21:21 |
| neversfelde | hehe | 21:21 |
| valoriez | thanks for meeting, and considering my application | 21:21 |
| Riddell | I'm away for most of next week, hopefully ninjas will get cracking on the merges | 21:22 |
| Riddell | and then party in Orlando | 21:22 |
| maco | Riddell: there's work before the party :P | 21:22 |
| valoriez | party? hmmm | 21:22 |
| valoriez | I thought it was work | 21:22 |
| valoriez | lol | 21:22 |
| neversfelde | bulldog98: you did nbot reapply? | 21:22 |
| Riddell | incase anyone else is confused, Downtown Disney is just a place with brightly coloured restaurants that we go for tea, it's not Disneyworld itself | 21:22 |
| neversfelde | -b | 21:22 |
| maco | in case anyone else is confused, when Riddell says "tea" he means "dinner" or "supper" or "bangohan" | 21:23 |
| ScottK | When I say coffee, I mean coffee. | 21:24 |
| neversfelde | ok, so no other business :) | 21:24 |
| Riddell | thanks for coming all | 21:24 |
| neversfelde | that was a short meeting :) | 21:25 |
| ScottK | No one else was up for the banishing. | 21:25 |
