airurandoWe'll start off with a review of previous action items20:09
slashtomPRESENT20:09
airurandoWe have a couple of old action items which relate to updating the Ubuntu-ie Loco Website20:09
airurandoThis appears to have gone off the boil for the moment so unless anyone objects I feel we should drop it from the agenda until somebody shows an interest in taking up this challenge.20:10
infoturtle`what's needed?20:10
airurandoany thoughts?20:10
ebelanyone wanna do it?20:11
ebelI have a feeling I am supposed to give someone else access, there's a few people who have access to the blacknight account20:11
infoturtle`Sure if I knew what was needed to update20:11
airurandoinfoturtle` I suppose a willingness to take on the challenge and a ability with website design20:12
infoturtle`have both of those20:12
airurandoebel: could you elaborate20:12
ebelairurando: essentially we have web hosting with blacknight20:12
ebeli.e. ubuntuie has a blacknight account username/password20:13
ebelwith that you can access the blacknight control panel, install various LAMP web applications etc20:13
ebeli.e. everything you need to set up the website.20:13
ebelthe webmistriss/webmaster will need this details to 'maintain the website'.20:13
airurandodoes anyone still have a link to shaunos mockup?20:14
ebelif anyone wants to be our webmistress/webmaster just let me know, and (unless other are opposed) I'll give it to 'em20:14
ebelI've given said details to other people already.20:14
infoturtle`I'd be happy to do it, will it involve changing the layout or adding content?20:14
ebelinfoturtle`: you can do as little and as much as you want. essentially we need a webmistriss/webmaster.20:15
infoturtle`cool, I'll help with that20:15
infoturtle`^^,20:15
airurandoexcellent20:15
airurandoanyone have any other input20:15

MootBotNew Topic:  Team Events December Schedule20:41
airurandoWith this being 'the most wonderful time of the year' I was wondering if we should plan accordingly.20:42
airurandoIs there any point in having Ubuntu Hours on the 29th and 30th of December?20:42
czajkowskinope20:42
* slashtom and ebel will be in .uk then20:42

czajkowskiairurando: remember the mails vicky send on re an event20:43
airurandoczajkowski yeah got them20:43
czajkowskiperhaps that can be done instead of an ubuntu hour for december?20:44
airurandoczajkowski you propose calling that team quiz event a combined social event for December20:44
czajkowskiyup20:44
airurandoGood Idea20:44

MootBotLINK received:  http://design.canonical.com/the-toolkit/ubuntu-brand-guidelines/20:52
infoturtle`at the last ubuntu hour in limerick, some one brought a design that i loved if ye want to look at the idea of it20:53
infoturtle`its rough but the idea is there20:53
airurandoShould we update the font at least?20:53
airurandoinfoturtle` yeah that was Hugh20:53
infoturtle`sure was20:53
airurandoHugh Mulqueen an artist generated a logo which he posted to the forums some time ago.20:54
airurando[LINK]http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=146331120:54
MootBotLINK received: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=146331120:54
airurandoI've chatted to Hugh on the forums and discussed the possibility of a more subtle update to the logo.20:54
airurandoHe seemed keen.20:54
airurandoHoped he would be here tonight20:54
airurandodoes anyone have thought on this?20:55
airurandois it needed?20:55
infoturtle`he was keen to let us use it at the meeting20:55
infoturtle`so I'd say he'd be fine with it20:56
infoturtle`chuffed even20:56
airurandoinfoturtle` based on the new branding I told Hugh I thought his design was a bit extreme.20:57
airurandoczajkowski: can you provide any guidance on this?20:57
czajkowskiahh20:58
czajkowskiwell once a new logo is created20:58
czajkowskiwe can just ask canonical to check it#s ok20:58
czajkowskithey come back within a few days20:59
czajkowskionces it's done poke me and I'll sort that bit out20:59
airurandoI've seem the UK redesign and it does not differ from the official brand as much as loco designs in the past did.21:00
czajkowskinods21:00
czajkowskithey had it checked out also21:00
airurandoI don't believe there is scope for much artistic license21:01
czajkowskibut we can tidy up the font21:01
czajkowskiand folks can add stuff to the design21:02
airurandoI liked Hugs effort and suggested he came up with something more subtle paying head to the new brand design guidelines21:03
airurandoI'll try to contact Hugh Again21:03
