| Maaz_ | Agreed: make a discussion on the Mailing list about OpenOffice in schools | 17:46 |
| magespawn | may i put something up? | 17:46 |
| maiatoday | go ahead magespawn | 17:46 |
| maiatoday | ok the geeknic happened | 17:47 |
| maiatoday | it was small but fun | 17:47 |
| maiatoday | very relaxing | 17:47 |
| maiatoday | I made the link to the facebook group on ubuntu-za.org so that item is done too | 17:48 |

| maiatoday | any comments on fanpage vs group on facebook? | 17:49 |
| nuvolari | nlsthzn: thanks :> | 17:49 |
| nuvolari | I vote for fanpage | 17:49 |
| * nlsthzn thinks facebook is evil and wishes diaspora will hurry up! | 17:49 | |
| superfly | Maiatoday we raised it previously | 17:49 |
| nuvolari | we do most of the "group" management in other ways | 17:49 |
| maiatoday | yes I am going through the previous minutes | 17:50 |
| DraZoro | I vote for fanpage as well. | 17:50 |
| smorar | I vote for fanpage too | 17:50 |
| superfly | A group doesn't actually work that well, but a fan page is stuck to one particular person, and you have to ask FB to fix it | 17:50 |
| nlsthzn | the minustes seem a bit inconplete (as far as I can see) | 17:50 |
| maiatoday | ok well I am not going to do more facebook maintence than what we currently do, if anyone wants to change this and has experience they are welcome to help out with this | 17:51 |
| nlsthzn | *minutes *incomplete | 17:51 |
| superfly | But yes, a fan page is much better | 17:51 |
| superfly | Maiatoday i can create a page | 17:51 |
| maiatoday | great! | 17:51 |
| maiatoday | Maaz_: Agreed superfly will make a fanpage for ubuntu-za | 17:52 |
| Maaz_ | Agreed: superfly will make a fanpage for ubuntu-za | 17:52 |
| superfly | (when I have Internet again) | 17:52 |
| * DraZoro hopes magespawn will re-spawn once again | 17:52 | |
| maiatoday | we are having the meeting so I skip over that item | 17:52 |
| maiatoday | Also I did take the cds to Pretoria and Jo'burg and handed them out at the Ubuntu Hour and at Wits | 17:53 |
| magespawn | sorry all i am on gprs in a storm | 17:53 |
| maiatoday | drubin, did we get some cds to cape town? | 17:53 |
| * DraZoro should distribute in UNISA as well. | 17:54 | |
| drubin | maiatoday: a few not that many | 17:54 |
| nuvolari | oh dear :'( my 1/! key is on its way out | 17:54 |
| maiatoday | drubin can people contact you for cds? | 17:54 |
| drubin | but last one they got 2 boxes | 17:54 |
| drubin | maiatoday: I have a few yes | 17:54 |
| nlsthzn | as an official loco, how many CD's of a release do you (we) get? | 17:55 |
| maiatoday | yikes dunno? drubin ^ | 17:55 |
| maiatoday | are we ready to move onto the agend? | 17:56 |
| maiatoday | agenda? | 17:56 |
| superfly | Ya | 17:56 |
| DraZoro | Yes | 17:56 |
| nlsthzn | seems so :) | 17:56 |
| maiatoday | we already talked about the backup, is there anything that needs to be added? | 17:56 |
| drubin | nlsthzn: +- 300 | 17:57 |
| * drubin is really out of it | 17:57 | |
| nlsthzn | drubin: thanks (good to know) | 17:57 |
| maiatoday | ok we already talked about the geeknic too :D any comments? | 17:57 |
| maiatoday | next time I'll try to pick a time when there are more people available | 17:57 |
| superfly | :( i couldn't make it | 17:57 |
| maiatoday | next time I'll try to pick a time when there are less bugs bugging people too | 17:58 |
| nlsthzn | what was the main issue, the time or the venue? | 17:58 |
| maiatoday | I think the time, becaue the students had left already | 17:58 |
| superfly | Ya | 17:58 |
| maiatoday | and people were sick | 17:58 |
| nlsthzn | sucks | 17:59 |
| maiatoday | Ok Ubuntu Hour in Durban!!! fantastic | 17:59 |
| nuvolari | :D | 18:00 |

| * drubin thinks we should wrap up | 18:00 | |
| drubin | considering there aren't any agenda items left | 18:00 |
| maiatoday | it is the last item drubin | 18:00 |
| drubin | woohoo | 18:00 |

| maiatoday | one post | 18:01 |
| nuvolari | and on the mailing list | 18:01 |
| nlsthzn | no pics? :( | 18:01 |
| maiatoday | it would be great to have some pics and a blog post next time too | 18:01 |
| nuvolari | one reply :P | 18:01 |
| nuvolari | no :/ was a bit dark for my flash-less android | 18:01 |
| * nlsthzn thinks Durbanites are to laid back to worry about suck things | 18:01 | |
| nuvolari | we plan to not have one venue | 18:01 |
| nuvolari | but rather to go places | 18:02 |
| maiatoday | ok anybody who wants to do an Ubuntu Hour just ask us and we;ll help you with getting all the posts in various spots sorted | 18:02 |
| nuvolari | as we're kinda scattered over a large area | 18:02 |
| nlsthzn | seems a decent stratagy | 18:02 |
| nuvolari | William shared his apt-mirrors | 18:02 |
| nuvolari | like 60Gb's repos | 18:03 |
| maiatoday | ok I am gonna end the meeting, going going .... | 18:03 |

| smorar | Morganvd: i have maverick builds for the compiz version of unity a ppa if you're interested in giving it a poke without upgrading yet | 18:10 |

| Morganvd | i use it on my netbook | 18:12 |
| maiatoday | okedoke, minutes updated here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZATeam/Meetings/20101213 | 18:12 |

| nlsthzn | tried unity on my netbook... just to slow... | 18:12 |
| * tumbleweed tried unity, it irritates me | 18:12 | |
| tumbleweed | (and it's not slow on my laptop) | 18:13 |
| maiatoday | somethings are better with unity like the desktops but it is sticky | 18:13 |
