c_smith | is there a LoCo Team in the Salem Oregon area? | 02:00 |
mhall119 | c_smith: did you check the loco-directory? | 02:01 |
mhall119 | US loco teams are state-wide, btw | 02:01 |
c_smith | yeah, I did.... | 02:01 |
c_smith | and it seems the nearest one is in Washington... | 02:01 |
c_smith | just finished looking, too. | 02:02 |
mhall119 | yeah, I'm not seeing one | 02:02 |
mhall119 | wouldn't you like to start one? | 02:02 |
c_smith | Not really, simply because I wouldn't be successful at motivating anyone. | 02:02 |
mhall119 | we have people who can help you get started with it | 02:03 |
mhall119 | it's not like you'd be left to fend for yourself | 02:03 |
c_smith | well, I still prefer a seat with less power, frankly, I don't like to be in charge of a group. | 02:04 |
c_smith | even if it is a minor group, | 02:04 |
mhall119 | do you know any other Ubuntu users there? | 02:04 |
c_smith | a few, | 02:04 |
c_smith | actually, only 2. | 02:05 |
mhall119 | think you can motivate one of them to be a team lead? | 02:05 |
mhall119 | 3 members is enough ;) | 02:05 |
c_smith | the only one I could motivate to be a team lead is on house arrest without internet. | 02:05 |
mhall119 | really, all that's needed is someone to create the group in launchpad.net and be the point of contact | 02:05 |
c_smith | the other, he would forget to wake up if we didn't remind him. | 02:05 |
mhall119 | oh, that's not ideal | 02:05 |
mhall119 | oregon sounds like a strange place | 02:06 |
munz | lol | 02:06 |
c_smith | Oregon, it's a beautiful state, outside of the cities, of course, but beautiful nontheless. | 02:06 |
c_smith | well. I might as well read the topic on creating a team. | 02:07 |
munz | c_smith: you could just start a small meetup group | 02:07 |
munz | :) | 02:07 |
c_smith | true, but how? | 02:08 |
munz | nothing too over serious | 02:08 |
c_smith | frankly, I'd like to contribute in some way to the Ubuntu project | 02:09 |
mhall119 | c_smith: find a few people interested in Ubuntu and/or Linux and go get coffee together | 02:09 |
c_smith | cool | 02:09 |
munz | yea | 02:09 |
munz | wear ubuntu shirt | 02:09 |
c_smith | that sounds to be more my type of meeting. XD | 02:09 |
munz | i try to contrubute by helping others in the chat | 02:09 |
munz | and work on #1 bug | 02:10 |
c_smith | I think I'll look into that shirt, I always wondered if there was one. | 02:10 |
mhall119 | http://shop.ubuntu.com/ | 02:10 |
munz | #1 ms has dominant market share | 02:10 |
c_smith | as for bugs, if it involves coding, I'm fresh out of High School, so I have close to zero coding knowledge. | 02:10 |
munz | spread the words of freedom :) | 02:10 |
munz | convert peeps to ubuntu | 02:11 |
mhall119 | know any html or css? | 02:11 |
c_smith | nope, | 02:11 |
mhall119 | c_smith: we have a 14 year old writing code for Ubuntu, so age isn't a barrier | 02:11 |
c_smith | the most I can do with code is compile pre-constructed source code. | 02:11 |
mhall119 | have you tried Python? | 02:12 |
c_smith | nope, is it simple? | 02:12 |
mhall119 | very | 02:12 |
mhall119 | and several Ubuntu desktop apps are written in it | 02:12 |
c_smith | I'll look into that, I've always wanted to try coding. :D | 02:12 |
mhall119 | also several webapps, like loco.ubuntu.com, are written in python | 02:12 |
c_smith | is there any place I can start to learn Python on the net that you guys know of? | 02:13 |
mhall119 | http://docs.python.org/tutorial/ | 02:14 |
c_smith | thanks | 02:15 |
munz | i am trying to learn python, a friend showed me this: https://ww3.hunter.cuny.edu/screencasts/programming-for-everyone/ | 02:15 |
mhall119 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Edubuntu/AppGuides/laby is kind of a fun way to learn python (and other languages) | 02:16 |
munz | that looks cool mhall119 | 02:18 |
mhall119 | it is cool | 02:18 |
munz | i'm gonna take a look@ both links you posted :) | 02:18 |
mhall119 | munz: you know where to find me if you have questions | 02:19 |
munz | cool, thanks | 02:20 |
