[20:01] <pleia2> or anyone? :)
[20:01] <pleia2> I need to leave at :30 minutes past
[20:01] <pleia2> (meeting is in an hour)
[20:02] <pleia2> so either we keep the meeting to 30 minutes, or someone else chairs
[20:02] <pleia2> I don't really anticipate it being a long meeting anyway
[20:05] <jledbetter> 30 minute meeting works :)

[21:06] <Mootbot-UK> Meeting started at 20:06. The chair is pleia2.
[21:06] <Mootbot-UK> Commands Available: [TOPIC], [PROGRESS REPORT], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE]
[21:07] <pleia2> it won't be a long meeting :) I need to run out soon and we just had our session at UDS last week anyway
[21:07] <pleia2> Agenda is here: http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Meetings/Agenda
[21:07] <IdleOne> o/
[21:07] <pleia2> [TOPIC] Discuss time line of LeadershipElectionProcess
[21:07] <Mootbot-UK> New Topic:  Discuss time line of LeadershipElectionProcess
[21:07] <pleia2> http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/LeadershipElectionProcess
[21:07] <Mootbot-UK> LINK received:  http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/LeadershipElectionProcess
[21:07] <pleia2> so this is our Leadership Election Process - obviously we missed some deadlines already
[21:08] <pleia2> I take responsibilty for this, release time is always crazy for me between local and UDS stuff, so my proposal is to move this to later in the cycle
[21:08] <pleia2> I figure we keep the same timeline, just have an end point of August rather than June
[21:09] <pleia2> any thoughts?
[21:09] <AlanBell> is the proposal to do it this once or always change it?
[21:09] <pleia2> AlanBell: always
[21:09] <pleia2> UDS and release time will always be busy for most of us
[21:10] <hypatia> that sounds good to me
[21:10] <hypatia> august is slow times
[21:10] <IdleOne> +1
[21:10] <pleia2> august is when the freeze hits, so some of us will be busy, but not as many as release and USD time
[21:11] <pleia2> (you could argue that every point in the cycle has busy things, but I still think release/UDS time is the busiest for most of us)
[21:11] <AlanBell> so every date in the process gets two months added to it?
[21:11] <pleia2> AlanBell: yep
[21:11] <pleia2> it would actually sync up pretty well to our expirations in https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-women-leaders
[21:12] <pleia2> since the ~ubuntu-women-leaders team wasn't actually created until august
[21:12] <pleia2> we can just add 10 days to each and be good
[21:12] <pleia2> in lp
[21:13] <hypatia> if we expire does it revert somewhere?
[21:14] <pleia2> revert?
[21:14] <hypatia> ownership of the group
[21:14] <hypatia> as in, who do the approval emails go to etc
[21:15] <AlanBell> https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-women-leaders would still exist
[21:15] <pleia2> one of us will still be listed as the owner even if memberships expire
[21:15] <hypatia> ahh cool
[21:15] <pleia2> so they'd come to me
[21:15] <pleia2> and ~ubuntu-women still has some backup administrators other than ~ubuntu-women-leaders
[21:15] <hypatia> cool
[21:15] <pleia2> so they get requests too
[21:17] <AlanBell> think you are actually all set up without expiry dates, not that it matters significantly
[21:17] <pleia2> ok, I'll wait a week to let others read the logs and things and then update our election schedule if there are no objections
[21:17] <IdleOne> none here
[21:17] <pleia2> [ACTION] pleia2 to update LeadershipElectionProcess with new dates next week if no objections arise

[21:18] <pleia2> [TOPIC] Oneiric Blueprint progress
[21:18] <Mootbot-UK> New Topic:  Oneiric Blueprint progress
[21:18] <pleia2> we have a blueprint! :)

[21:18] <Mootbot-UK> LINK received:  https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu-women.org/+spec/community-o-ubuntu-women-project-goals
[21:18] <pleia2> I actually started working on [lyz] Follow up with elky for patches on the wiki: TODO
[21:18] <AlanBell> um, where did the Ada Lovelace thing go?
[21:19] <pleia2> AlanBell: we have no volunteers to run them
[21:19] <maco> AlanBell: nobody's committed to it so its not on the list yet
[21:19] <maco> i have an outreach idea. Will any other UW folks be at Southeast LinuxFest? I'm thinking about requesting a UW table, but if we want to be listed in the program i have to say "yes" now, and I'd rather not be the only one to hold down the fort
[21:20]  * maco looks at akgraner
[21:20] <AlanBell> hmm, as I recall, silbs was particularly keen on the competitions and Ada Lovelace stuff at UDS-N
[21:20] <AlanBell> then the day got moved
[21:21] <pleia2> yeah, once we get volunteers it can be added, but people being "keen on" it aren't enough, linux pro magazine has also offered to help with prizes
[21:21] <AlanBell> volunteers to do what?
[21:21] <pleia2> organize the contest
[21:21] <nigelb> I can help.
[21:21] <AlanBell> I can help
[21:22] <pleia2> make the wiki page, collect entries, everything, I don't know what all is involved, I wasn't involved last time
[21:22] <nigelb> I can talk to elky and figure out what needs to be done, document it on the wiki, and help run it along with AlanBell.
[21:23] <pleia2> [ACTION] nigelb to talk to elky and figure out what needs to be done, document it on the wiki, and help run it along with AlanBell
[21:23] <Mootbot-UK> ACTION received:  nigelb to talk to elky and figure out what needs to be done, document it on the wiki, and help run it along with AlanBell
[21:23] <AlanBell> I have Ada Lovelace on our Loco plan of stuff
[21:23]  * nigelb ^5 AlanBell
[21:23] <AlanBell> was waiting for a lead on exactly what to do for it from UW
[21:24] <pleia2> thanks nigelb, AlanBell
[21:24]  * pleia2 won't be at southeast linuxfest
[21:24] <pleia2> maco: maybe post to the list and see if there is interest?
[21:25] <maco> i tried calling akgraner's phone, but pgraner answered and said he didnt know if she was going
[21:25] <Cheri703> any other women headed to OLF? No idea when a table there would need to be claimed
[21:25] <maco> Cheri703: soon. they're talking about changing how they do .org tables though due to too many no-shows... big deposit with refund if you actually show up and staff your booth
[21:25] <Cheri703> that makes sense
[21:26] <maco> the gnome booth was empty at SELF & OLF last year
[21:26] <pleia2> that's disappointing
[21:26] <maco> kde was there :)
[21:26] <pleia2> ah yes, so my progress on the blueprint, I submitted a bunch of bugs against our theme: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-women.org
[21:26] <pleia2> I'm going to try to set up a moin instance to fix some of them
[21:27] <akgraner> maco, sorry waiting on another call which will determine if I'll even be at SELF
[21:27] <maco> akgraner: ok
[21:27] <akgraner> dislocated kneecap and waiting to see about surgery
[21:27] <maco> annalee might come to SELF with me, but that's not for sure yet
[21:27] <maco> OUCH
[21:28]  * nigelb hugs akgraner
[21:28] <pleia2> [TOPIC] Ubuntu Developer Summit Oneiric wrap-up
[21:28] <Mootbot-UK> New Topic:  Ubuntu Developer Summit Oneiric wrap-up
[21:28] <pleia2> Went well I think :) notes from our session are here: http://pad.ubuntu.com/ep/pad/view/ro.xMcFNCzMydpqUTYeEEC7pvwsmPuWHQQD7h5PXvhVPEKpv/rev.1218
[21:29] <hypatia> yeah i think it went super well
[21:29] <pleia2> we pretty much formalized the blueprint and then talked to folks from italian and vancouver teams about how they are doing with outreach to women
[21:29] <pleia2> I'll be following up with them soon to get their tips into a document of our own (added this to the blueprint)
[21:29] <AlanBell> audio here btw http://mirrors.tumbleweed.org.za/uds-o/2011-05-12-09-55-community-o-ubuntu-women-project-goals.ogg
[21:30] <akgraner> best UW UDS session ever!
[21:30] <pleia2> now I need to run :)
[21:30] <hypatia> :D
[21:30] <pleia2> thanks everyone!
[21:30] <pleia2> #endmeeting
[21:30] <Mootbot-UK> Meeting finished at 20:30.
[21:30] <nigelb> fast meeting!
[21:30] <hajour1> :)
[21:31] <IdleOne> thank you.
[21:31] <AlanBell> nigelb: did we really just volunteer for that??
[21:32] <nigelb> AlanBell: yes we did :)
[21:32] <nigelb> AlanBell: I think I'll try to pull in a few people to help us though :)
[21:32]  * nigelb looks at Cheri703 and jledbetter
[21:32] <AlanBell> that would be good
[21:33] <Cheri703> I barely know what it is...though that hasn't always stopped me from jumping in before >.>
[21:33] <jledbetter> My window flashed.
[21:33] <AlanBell> http://findingada.com/
[21:34] <jledbetter> Ah, looks like it's taken :) Cool
[21:34] <nigelb> jledbetter: That was intended.  AlanBell and I volunteered to help run the competition.  We're trying to get you and Cheri703 to help us ;)
[21:34] <AlanBell> the day is on 7th October 2011
[21:35] <Cheri703> I know NOTHING about this
[21:35] <nigelb> there's 5 months to go
[21:35] <AlanBell> Cheri703: we are all making this up as we go along
[21:35] <nigelb> +1 there.
[21:35] <Cheri703> ok
[21:35] <jledbetter> What about the blogging stuff? That in there? Yes, I could scroll up but deadlines. ;)
[21:35]  * Cheri703 wins, prize = something awesome
[21:36] <jledbetter> I think it's this: http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Events/Competitions/WorldPlayDay
[21:36] <AlanBell> so far we know that there have been competitions done before for other events, like world play day
[21:36] <AlanBell> that was generally considered a success
[21:37] <AlanBell> Jane Silber expressed approval and interest in doing further competitions
[21:37] <jledbetter> Great
[21:37] <jledbetter> They're normally aimed at the younger generation, right?
[21:37] <maco> yes
[21:38] <maco> well actually
[21:38] <maco> world play day was children
[21:38] <AlanBell> Linux Format and Canonical have both said they would be happy to be approached for sponsorship/prizes
[21:38] <maco> i think for ada lovelace it was grownup women writing about how they got into ubuntu?
[21:38] <AlanBell> http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Events/Competitions/InternationalWomensDay/HowIDiscoveredUbuntu
[21:38] <maco> oh IWD, not ALD
[21:38] <AlanBell> maco: it was just a general blogging effort as I recall
[21:38] <maco> AlanBell: i mean the story competition, remember?
[21:38] <AlanBell> there wasn't an Ada Lovelace competition as such
[21:39] <maco> yeah it was IWD, not ALD
[21:39] <AlanBell> yup
[21:39] <maco> that was in answer to the "generation" thing
[21:39] <AlanBell> ah, ok
[21:39] <AlanBell> I don't think Ada Lovelace is about the younger generation particularly
[21:40] <nigelb> what's the competition per se for Ada Lovelace day?
[21:40] <AlanBell> (define younger generation)
[21:40] <maco> World Play Day is kids, IWD was grownups
[21:40] <maco> mentioned ALD was a brain fart
[21:40] <maco> you're right that ALD was blogging, no competition
[21:42] <AlanBell> so it should be a competition (because we haz prizes) relating to women and technology (because it is Ada Lovelace day) and Ubuntu (because it just should)
[21:48] <AlanBell> seems a little more UK/London based than I had expected
[21:49] <AlanBell> the map seems to suggest that it does have global significance though
[21:51] <maco> ALD?
[21:51] <maco> i blogged for both of the previous ones...had the impression it was internet-wide
[21:52] <AlanBell> yeah, just reading through http://findingada.com/events/
