ChinnoDog | See, you are in charge by default | 00:03 |

pleia2 | TheEvilPhoenix: regarding the meeting - no one replied on list to the email so nothing has happened yet | 00:05 |
TheEvilPhoenix | oic | 00:05 |
TheEvilPhoenix | i couldnt reply | 00:05 |
TheEvilPhoenix | because this system imploded x] | 00:05 |
TheEvilPhoenix | its back up and working... but *shrugs* | 00:05 |
TheEvilPhoenix | i'm definitely hating on Unity | 00:05 |
pleia2 | well you can reply at any time :) | 00:05 |
pleia2 | the lack of replies is kinda endemic of the problem, there are plenty of folks in the state who will *come* to events (there were lots of successful ones in the philly area over the years) but not many people willing to organize and plan things | 00:07 |
pleia2 | a bunch of us active people moved away :( | 00:07 |
TheEvilPhoenix | mhm | 00:07 |
TheEvilPhoenix | i think there's not much call for the LoCo anymore... nobody can organize events :/ | 00:07 |
JonathanD | I'm active! | 00:07 |
TheEvilPhoenix | but that's just my opinion | 00:07 |
TheEvilPhoenix | :P | 00:07 |
pleia2 | JonathanD: have time to plan more events? :) | 00:07 |
TheEvilPhoenix | ^ that | 00:08 |
JonathanD | pleia2: thats pretty much all I do, isn't it? | 00:08 |
pleia2 | JonathanD: seems like | 00:08 |
JonathanD | it's my calling. | 00:08 |
pleia2 | I'm going to work in the fact that this team is leaderless to my fosscon keynote ;) | 00:08 |
JonathanD | Or so I like to think. | 00:08 |
JonathanD | pleia2: good plan. | 00:08 |
TheEvilPhoenix | give the leader job to JonathanD | 00:08 |
JonathanD | hey now :P | 00:08 |
TheEvilPhoenix | or someone who lives in PA :P | 00:08 |
pleia2 | "an example of where we need volunteers is right here in pa...." | 00:08 |
pleia2 | :) | 00:08 |
TheEvilPhoenix | :P | 00:09 |
JonathanD | I like making events happen. | 00:09 |
JonathanD | I don't know about "leader job" | 00:09 |
TheEvilPhoenix | SO MAKE EVENTS HAPPEN | 00:09 |
JonathanD | Ok! | 00:09 |
TheEvilPhoenix | preferably out near Harrisburg :P | 00:09 |
JonathanD | tell me what you need? | 00:09 |
waltman | oh darn, wasn't blobfest today? | 00:12 |
JonathanD | Yes. | 00:13 |
JonathanD | the italian festival in phoenixville too | 00:13 |
TheEvilPhoenix | you know what I think | 00:14 |
TheEvilPhoenix | i think we need to arrange for some kind of FOSS awareness day | 00:14 |
TheEvilPhoenix | in PA | 00:14 |
ChinnoDog | Why does the leader have to live in PA? The calendar is sparse enough that even people who live out of state attend as much as people in state. | 00:14 |
pleia2 | software freedom day is good for that | 00:14 |
pleia2 | ChinnoDog: why so negative? :( | 00:14 |
TheEvilPhoenix | because he knows i'm right | 00:14 |
TheEvilPhoenix | :P | 00:14 |
ChinnoDog | I'm not negative! | 00:15 |
waltman | phoenixville had an italian festival the same day as blogfest? | 00:15 |
ChinnoDog | If someone wants to step up to the plate that isn't in PA and it gets going again then someone closer will have to do it | 00:15 |
pleia2 | you can nom italian foods while blobbing :d | 00:15 |
pleia2 | ChinnoDog: if someone isn't in PA they should be working in their own state, it's not really fair for someone outside the state to be running things | 00:15 |
waltman | I had a Wawa Hoagiefest meatball shorti for dinner tonight. Does that count? | 00:16 |
TheEvilPhoenix | pleia2: when's software freedom day? | 00:16 |
pleia2 | TheEvilPhoenix: mid september | 00:16 |
ChinnoDog | No leader > outsourced leader? | 00:16 |
TheEvilPhoenix | specific dates? | 00:16 |
pleia2 | http://softwarefreedomday.org/ has all details | 00:16 |
PennBot | Title: Software Freedom Day - SFD Home (at softwarefreedomday.org) | 00:16 |
TheEvilPhoenix | because i might be at Penn State Harrisburg that day and might be able to rally a bunch of compsci students to hold a FOSS Awareness Day in Harrisburg :P | 00:16 |
pleia2 | they will even send you stuff if you plan an event :) | 00:16 |
pleia2 | cool | 00:17 |
pleia2 | ChinnoDog: yes, it gives someone in state the opportunity to become leader if they come along | 00:17 |
TheEvilPhoenix | oh wait you said september | 00:17 |
TheEvilPhoenix | then definitely :P | 00:17 |
pleia2 | who actually lives there | 00:17 |
TheEvilPhoenix | well if it werent for all the duties of being horridly active, i'd be leader... but i am not active enough :P | 00:18 |
ChinnoDog | pleia2: this is only an "opportunity" if someone wants to do it | 00:20 |
pleia2 | no, the opportunity exists no matter whether someone wants it or not :P | 00:21 |
pleia2 | and the opportunity doesn't exist if someone else is doing the job | 00:21 |
JonathanD | TheEvilPhoenix: are you coming to fosscon? | 00:21 |
TheEvilPhoenix | JonathanD: where's it located? | 00:21 |
TheEvilPhoenix | i might be able to take a day off work :P | 00:21 |
TheEvilPhoenix | and when? | 00:21 |
JonathanD | Philly, saturday 23rd | 00:21 |
ChinnoDog | pleia2: it does if they can be usurped at any time by someone more qualified, i.e. living in state | 00:21 |
pleia2 | ChinnoDog: so are you volunteering to run it from DC? :P | 00:22 |
TheEvilPhoenix | JonathanD: wish i were... but i'll be in Pittsburgh that weekend | 00:22 |
ChinnoDog | pleia2: maybe! | 00:22 |
pleia2 | ChinnoDog: you wouldn't even run it when you lived in PA! | 00:22 |
pleia2 | I tried :) | 00:22 |
TheEvilPhoenix | JonathanD: if i can get out of some obligations, though, i'll see what I can do | 00:22 |
TheEvilPhoenix | but *shrugs* | 00:22 |
JonathanD | do eet | 00:23 |
TheEvilPhoenix | JonathanD: easier said than done :P | 00:23 |
JonathanD | meh :p | 00:43 |
JonathanD | Sometimes stuff just has to be done, no matter how hard it seems ;) | 00:43 |
JonathanD | This is one of those times. | 00:44 |
TheEvilPhoenix | tell that to my employer, the state government :P | 00:46 |
JonathanD | Ok. | 00:46 |
JonathanD | In Harrisburg? | 00:46 |
JonathanD | Which dept? | 00:46 |
TheEvilPhoenix | you can tell the Secretary of "We don't actually care what the public thinks" located at <undisclosed coordinates> | 00:47 |
JonathanD | I've worked with quite a few of em. | 00:47 |
