[01:08] <itnet7> Lupine and I are probably going to do a little something too
[01:09] <mhall119> if anybody else wants to hold a jam, really all you need is a buddy and a starbucks

[01:12] <itnet7> On the LD page, do you want to add what you need for us to bring?
[01:12] <mhall119> so if anybody is planning on travelling to Orlando for UDS (and you really should if you can), plan to come over to Lakeland the Saturday afterwards before you leave for home for some good fun and food
[01:12] <MichelleQ> yes, please, itnet7
[01:12] <MichelleQ> and also some slightly-intoxicated merry-go-rounding

[01:12] <itnet7> Sweet MichelleQ !
[01:13] <mhall119> our parties are family-friendly, people will be bringing spouses and children, and you're encouraged to bring yours too
[01:13] <MichelleQ> itnet7: yeah, pretty much.  The plan is that we're going to BBQ again
[01:13] <MichelleQ> if everyone else can do sides or desserts, that'd be perfect
[01:14] <mhall119> last names ending in "Trevino" should bring tandori chicken and samosas

[01:17] <himuraken> XD
[01:17] <mhall119> himuraken: true
[01:17] <mhall119> but then again, everyone from Michigan will be here in the winter anyway
[01:17] <itnet7> I can't believe I finally come back to visit NJ, and they have a Heat Wave
[01:18] <mhall119> lol
[01:18] <himuraken> Epic
[01:18] <itnet7> All the years I lived up here I can't ever remember saying it was HOT, until yesterday and today :-P
[01:18] <MichelleQ> 99* here yesterday
[01:18] <mhall119> and coming from a Floridian, that's saying something
[01:18] <itnet7> Yeah

[01:19] <X-Man> yes
[01:20] <X-Man> +1
[01:20] <n3gbz> yes
[01:20] <MichelleQ> more-or-less
[01:20] <mhall119> I haven't heard if my team will be going, but I plan on attending somehow
[01:20] <jamz3243> I can't but I might start a hangout on plus
[01:20] <itnet7> jamz3243: Sweet!!
[01:20] <itnet7> good idea
[01:21] <jamz3243> thanks ^^
[01:21] <mhall119> does anybody not know what UDS is?
[01:21] <MichelleQ> if any of your wives/SOs are interested, ubuntu-women (the ones here for UDS) will be having a dinner here at the house mid-week, too.
[01:21] <itnet7> Oh, I did have some links set aside let me add them to mootbot
[01:22] <itnet7> [LINK] http://uds.ubuntu.com/
[01:22] <Mootbot-UK> LINK received:  http://uds.ubuntu.com/ 
[01:22] <itnet7> would you like to talk a bit about it mhall119 ?
[01:22] <mhall119> um, sure
[01:23] <mhall119> so UDS is a week where almost everybody involved in Ubuntu gets together in the same place to talk about what needs to be done for the next release
[01:24] <mhall119> Oct 31 -> Nov 4 they will be holding UDS in Orlando
[01:24] <mhall119> anybody who can get themselves there can attend for free
[01:24] <mhall119> it's not a conference, like SELF or OSCON, the primary focus of the sessions at UDS are planning features and development plans
[01:25] <mhall119> it's a great way to see what's happening in the world of Ubuntu development, how it all happens, how the Canonical the company interacts with community contributors, and just generally meet some really amazing people
[01:25] <mhall119> if you can make it at all, one day or all week, I really encourage you to attend

[01:26] <Mootbot-UK> LINK received: [LINK]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UDS-P 
[01:27] <mhall119> in Orlando they will be planning for Ubuntu 12.04, which will be released in April of 2012
[01:28] <itnet7> 12.04 being the LTS release
[01:28] <mhall119> itnet7: did I miss anything?
[01:28] <itnet7> right?
[01:29] <mhall119> yes, 12.04 should be the next long term support release
[01:29] <mhall119> there's only 6 months between the planning at UDS and the release, so you'll be able to see everything from start to finish
[01:30] <itnet7> Awesome
[01:30] <itnet7> erictee: are you able to attend UDS this year?
[01:30] <erictee> probably only two days
[01:30] <itnet7> *just tryting to get an idea of who's able to go
[01:31] <X-Man> Is the Florida team hosting a welcome party or helping out in anyway?
[01:31] <X-Man> for UDS
[01:31] <itnet7> X-Man: Have any ideas?
[01:31] <erictee> Is Jorge Castro part of our group now
[01:31] <MichelleQ> X-Man: we haven't discussed it at this point, but I'd be willing to help organize, if someone has a good idea for it
[01:32] <itnet7> erictee: he's moved to Florida for at least a year
[01:32] <itnet7> and he's joined the team
[01:32] <erictee> Awesome
[01:33] <itnet7> MichelleQ: We can add that to our next team meeting agenda
[01:34] <itnet7> that way we can have a chance to come up with some good ideas :-)
[01:34] <MichelleQ> itnet7: perfect
[01:34] <mhall119> sounds good
[01:34] <n3gbz> monthly meetings or bi-weekly?
[01:35] <itnet7> n3gbz: we are going to resume our bi-weekly meeting schedule
[01:35] <n3gbz> 1st and 3rd Tuesday, right?
[01:35] <itnet7> n3gbz: Yes, from 9pm - 10pm
[01:36] <itnet7> I will add the meetings to the LoCo Directory and I will update the IRC topic as soon as we are done this evening
[01:36] <itnet7> Is it better to e-mail the reminder the day before the meeting? or a week?
[01:37] <MichelleQ> i have no preference either way
[01:37] <n3gbz> day before - 
[01:37] <itnet7> cool
[01:38] <itnet7> I will e-mail the list, about our next meeting, since we would like to try and get some good ideas on a potential UDS event
[01:38] <itnet7> X-Man: last year there was some talk about some of the team wanting to do crew
[01:39] <X-Man> itnet7,  to do crew?
[01:39] <itnet7> Each day at UDS
[01:39] <itnet7> they have a group of people called Crew
[01:39] <itnet7> two of them go around and change the room listings for each session
[01:40] <itnet7> and 1 or 2 of them monitor the video camera's in recorded sessions
[01:40] <itnet7> They also help out wherever needed.
[01:40] <itnet7> Traditionally it has been sponsored people that do "Crew" duty
[01:41] <itnet7> but last year some people were mentioning they might like to volunteer to help during UDS
[01:42] <itnet7> I don't know if Canonical would really want us to do that, but if anyone really wanted to help out in that way we can ask
[01:43] <itnet7> Well if no one else has anything...
[01:43] <MichelleQ> It might be nice to at the very least let them know that if additional crew is needed, Fl. Team is willing to pitch in
[01:43] <itnet7> Definitely
[01:44] <itnet7> Oh, before I forget
[01:44] <itnet7> I want to post the link for the Discounted Rate

[01:45] <n3gbz> itnet7: will you be there at uds all week again?
[01:46] <itnet7> n3gbz: I am pretty sure I will be
[01:46] <itnet7> I have to change the dates on my work calendar once I get back
[01:47] <n3gbz> I will probably be there entire week again
[01:48] <itnet7> n3gbz: cool
[01:48] <MichelleQ> I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again
[01:49] <n3gbz> me too; glad I met so many last year
[01:49] <itnet7> me too
[01:52] <cjohnston> o/
[01:52] <itnet7> hey there cjohnston !
[01:53] <X-Man> itnet7, one idea for the Welcome Party could be like Hawaiian Luau
[01:53] <cjohnston> umm.. on the last subject, last uds I was the crew chief.. I may be as well this time, so if your interested in crewing, let me know and I'll atleast pass it along
[01:54] <itnet7> sounds good
[01:54] <itnet7> X-Man: that sounds like a good idea
[01:54] <MichelleQ> X-Man: interesting idea!
[01:54] <itnet7> X-Man: but we have to learn from last year... only like 60 people signed up for the pizza party but we had a lot more come
[01:55] <cjohnston> i guess i have to scroll back to see about the party
[01:55] <itnet7> we went through how many pizza's MichelleQ ?
[01:55] <MichelleQ> oh, lord, like 100
[01:55] <itnet7> cjohnston: we are just brainstorming a bit
[01:55] <MichelleQ> I could have kissed the manager at dominos
[01:55] <n3gbz> maybe tacos this year (for Jcastro)
[01:55] <itnet7> MichelleQ: Yeah, they were pretty flexible
[01:55] <jcastro> \o/ tacos!
[01:55] <cjohnston> jcastro!
[01:55] <itnet7> :-)
[01:56] <cjohnston> jcastro when does Jill move?

[02:02] <itnet7> X-Man: we were able to use the Plenary Session main room
[02:03] <itnet7> We would have to ask for permission again first, but we might be able to do it again
[02:03] <MichelleQ> X-Man: the plenary room was large enough to hold the entire UDS attendee-body
[02:04] <X-Man> MichelleQ,  Great, I have been wanting to go to UDS for a long time and I could go last year and I want to help throw a killer welcome party.
[02:04] <itnet7> X-Man: It was "Pizza and a Movie" night!
[02:04] <itnet7> last year
[02:04] <akgraner> MichelleQ, be careful what you wish for...
[02:05] <itnet7> rofl akgraner !
[02:05] <MichelleQ> X-Man: can use all the help we can get!
[02:05] <X-Man> itnet7, Yea I could come last year.
[02:05] <MichelleQ> akgraner: I'd be thrilled.  ;-)
[02:06] <X-Man> MichelleQ, I have my room booked and I will be there early.
[02:06] <MichelleQ> awesome.  Let's stay in touch. :-)
[02:07] <akgraner> MichelleQ, thanks!
[02:28] <X-Man> itnet7, Did the Hotel charge to use the plenary room?  Or did you just ask permission to use it?
[02:30] <itnet7> X-Man: They did not charge us for use of the room. We asked Marianna (from Canonical) if she could make sure it was alright to use it
[02:30] <itnet7> If we come up with another good idea, we will need to ask again
[02:30] <itnet7> I think we did a good job with the clean up and everything last time
[02:34] <MichelleQ> itnet7: we didn't have to worry about clean-up
[02:34] <itnet7> MichelleQ: lol
[02:34] <MichelleQ> We packed up the food, and set all the trash to the side, and as I went to locate a dumpster, the hotel staff whisked it all away
[02:34] <itnet7> Oh, sweet
[02:34] <MichelleQ> Caribe was *wonderful*
[02:35] <itnet7> I just meant we didn't leave it in a big mess
[02:35] <MichelleQ> no, we didn't thoroughly trash the joint.  :-)
[02:35] <itnet7> I forgot they picked it up for us
[02:36] <itnet7> gonna get some sleep now
[02:37] <itnet7> We might go to Bear Mountain, NY in the morning
[02:37] <itnet7> :-)
[02:37] <MichelleQ> have fun!
[02:37] <itnet7> When I get back I'll share out the pictures of our Adventures :-)
