Kobe?00:56
c_smithis there a LoCo Team in the Salem Oregon area?02:00
mhall119c_smith: did you check the loco-directory?02:01
mhall119US loco teams are state-wide, btw02:01
c_smithyeah, I did....02:01
c_smithand it seems the nearest one is in Washington...02:01
c_smithjust finished looking, too.02:02
mhall119yeah, I'm not seeing one02:02
mhall119wouldn't you like to start one?02:02
c_smithNot really, simply because I wouldn't be successful at motivating anyone.02:02
mhall119we have people who can help you get started with it02:03
mhall119it's not like you'd be left to fend for yourself02:03
c_smithwell, I still prefer a seat with less power, frankly, I don't like to be in charge of a group.02:04
c_smitheven if it is a minor group,02:04
mhall119do you know any other Ubuntu users there?02:04
c_smitha few,02:04
c_smithactually, only 2.02:05
mhall119think you can motivate one of them to be a team lead?02:05
mhall1193 members is enough ;)02:05
c_smiththe only one I could motivate to be a team lead is on house arrest without internet.02:05
mhall119really, all that's needed is someone to create the group in launchpad.net and be the point of contact02:05
c_smiththe other, he would forget to wake up if we didn't remind him.02:05
mhall119oh, that's not ideal02:05
mhall119oregon sounds like a strange place02:06
munzlol02:06
c_smithOregon, it's a beautiful state, outside of the cities, of course, but beautiful nontheless.02:06
c_smithwell. I might as well read the topic on creating a team.02:07
munzc_smith: you could just start a small meetup group02:07
munz:)02:07
c_smithtrue, but how?02:08
munznothing too over serious02:08
c_smithfrankly, I'd like to contribute in some way to the Ubuntu project02:09
mhall119c_smith: find a few people interested in Ubuntu and/or Linux and go get coffee together02:09
c_smithcool02:09
munzyea02:09

c_smithI think I'll look into that shirt, I always wondered if there was one.02:10
mhall119http://shop.ubuntu.com/02:10
munz#1 ms has dominant market share02:10
c_smithas for bugs, if it involves coding, I'm fresh out of High School, so I have close to zero coding knowledge.02:10
munzspread the words of freedom :)02:10
munzconvert peeps to ubuntu02:11
mhall119know any html or css?02:11
c_smithnope,02:11
mhall119c_smith: we have a 14 year old writing code for Ubuntu, so age isn't a barrier02:11
c_smiththe most I can do with code is compile pre-constructed source code.02:11
mhall119have you tried Python?02:12
c_smithnope, is it simple?02:12
mhall119very02:12
mhall119and several Ubuntu desktop apps are written in it02:12
c_smithI'll look into that, I've always wanted to try coding. :D02:12
mhall119also several webapps, like loco.ubuntu.com, are written in python02:12
c_smithis there any place I can start to learn Python on the net that you guys know of?02:13
mhall119http://docs.python.org/tutorial/02:14
c_smiththanks02:15
munzi am trying to learn python, a friend showed me this: https://ww3.hunter.cuny.edu/screencasts/programming-for-everyone/02:15
mhall119https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Edubuntu/AppGuides/laby is kind of a fun way to learn python (and other languages)02:16
