=== chris__ is now known as twopoint718 [13:38] greetings [13:45] hi [13:46] EgyParadox: hello. I don't remember meeting you. Where-about in the state are you from? [13:46] I am from Egypt [13:47] not from US [13:47] but I noticed that the WI team is active [13:47] and I used to live there [13:48] EgyParadox: ah, welcome [13:48] We are somewhat active [13:49] we try, anyway [13:49] yeah I noticed there are many events [13:50] The Egyptian became somehow active only recently [13:51] EgyParadox: Yeah, we have some Ubuntu hours going on, we are going to try the Global Jam, too [13:53] nice [13:54] We just had our ubuntu our [13:54] hour* [13:54] it was fun, we haven't had the global jam yet [13:58] What about the number of people attending the events? [13:59] EgyParadox: usually, for the Ubuntu Hour, it is around 3-4, from what it sounds like [14:00] what about release parties? [14:00] /install fests [14:06] We had one...what, 2 years ago now, and another 6 months after, but not for the last 2 releases [14:06] I mean the numberof people attending [14:07] http://anthonyrhook.com/blog/2009/11/08/release-party-success/ [14:07] we had 16 on the first one [14:07] I don't remember how many at the one in Madison [14:08] maybe... 12? 14? [14:08] I am surprised [14:09] :) [14:09] Now that my wedding is over, maybe I'll throw something down for Oneric [14:10] I think 100+ attended our first release party [14:10] :) [14:10] Congratulations [14:10] Thanks [14:10] EgyParadox: that's awesome [14:10] yeah [14:10] it was a nice start [14:11] *install fest [14:12] first install fest* [14:12] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EgyptTeam/Events/2010-05-08-LucidReleaseParty [14:13] It'd be fun to get shirts, or tell people that are attending to get some sort of Ubuntu swag to wear it [14:16] Yeah [14:16] We put some artwork for the designs so anybody could print [14:17] This is our first release party [14:17] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EgyptTeam/Events/2010-10-30-Cairo-release-party-for-Ubuntu-Maverick-Meerkat [14:18] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EgyptTeam/Artwork [14:24] I think we talkeda bout borrowing a wiki header like yours [14:24] :( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WisconsinTeam [14:25] We did talk? [14:26] We did talk about a nice wiki header like yours, I have to check my logs [14:26] I can't remember [14:26] was it thelinuxer? [14:27] Oh, no, I mean the LoCo talked about it [14:27] not you/I [14:27] oh ok [14:27] I thought in the US more people would attend events [14:27] It's hard with Wisconsin being spread out [14:28] Why? [14:29] We seem to have some people interested in the Madison/Milwaukee area, but the further north you get, it's more spread-out [14:32] I thought its the other way aroujd [14:32] around* [14:36] ? [14:36] EgyParadox: as in...? [14:36] I just sent an email out, a call for artwork [14:38] I thought it would be more spread in Madison/MIlwaukee [14:38] EgyParadox: there is more of a concentration down there [14:38] As in, more people [14:38] oh ok [14:41] EgyParadox: you have a magazine cover for artwork?! [14:41] https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-us-wi/2011-August/000376.html [14:41] er [14:42] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EgyptTeam/Artwork?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=Prototype.jpg [14:43] There were plans for a magazine [14:43] but I dont know what happened really [14:43] I think there is [14:43] I am not responsible for art work [14:46] Cool, though. [16:08] What about other states? [16:08] EgyParadox: what about them? [16:08] h00k: Μπορώ να φάω σπασμένα γυαλιά χωρίς να πάθω τίποτα.
