| Tribaal | Hi folks | 11:15 |
|---|---|---|
| Tribaal | I'm a member of the Swiss LoCo, and I'll be moving to Ireland in the next couple of months | 11:15 |
| Tribaal | so I wanted to jump in and say hi :) | 11:16 |
| ebel | hello Tribaal | 11:16 |
| Tribaal | how active are you guys? The page linked seems pretty active | 11:17 |
| ebel | Ah relatively. | 11:17 |
| ebel | We had a geeknic (geek picnic) last weekend | 11:17 |
| ebel | we have regular irc meetings. (coming up soon, so you can pop along if you want to see stuff) | 11:17 |
| Tribaal | nice :) | 11:18 |
| Tribaal | geeknics sound like fun | 11:18 |
| ebel | we'll be taking part in the ubuntu global jam soon, another event you can come along to | 11:19 |
| ebel | where in ireland are you moving too? | 11:19 |
| Tribaal | Dublin | 11:19 |
| ebel | Most ubuntu-ie activity happens in dublin. | 11:19 |
| Tribaal | my wife and I are pretty scared (it's the first time we move abroad) | 11:19 |
| Tribaal | good to know | 11:19 |
| Tribaal | :) | 11:19 |
| Tribaal | So how many people were there at the geeknic? | 11:21 |
| ebel | varied. last one was small, only 4. :P | 11:21 |
| ebel | soon the weather will turn against us :) | 11:21 |
| ebel | There's also a hackerspace in dublin (TOG), if you're looking around | 11:22 |
| Tribaal | Ohhhh interesting | 11:22 |
| ebel | ubuntu-ie also does semi-regular intermitant meet ups in pubs thoughout the yera | 11:22 |
| ebel | are you on the mailing list? we also have an identica/twitter account | 11:22 |
| Tribaal | not yet | 11:22 |
| Tribaal | It just occured to me "hey I spend my days on IRC, why not start by hopping on the ubuntu LoCo channel | 11:23 |
| ebel | http://twitter.com/#!/ubuntuie | 11:23 |
| ebel | this channel is usually pretty active | 11:23 |
| ebel | http://identi.ca/ubuntuie | 11:24 |
| Tribaal | Followin' | 11:25 |
| Tribaal | :) | 11:25 |
| Tribaal | thanks ebel | 11:38 |
| tdr112 | anyone know how to add a file to a .war in ubuntu | 11:43 |
| ebel | is it just a zip file with a .war file ending? (i.e. maybe you can unzip add file, re-zip) | 11:45 |
| tdr112 | it is a zip , | 11:47 |
| czajkowski | aloha | 11:47 |
| tdr112 | so tar is not the one to use | 11:47 |
| Tribaal | you can "sudo aptitude install unzip" then "zip whatever.war [list of files or folder]" | 11:49 |

| meetingology | TOPIC: ACTION: infoturtle will organise UGJ Limerick | 19:11 |
| airurando | infoturtle can't be here tonight and sends his apologies | 19:11 |
| airurando | he has done some work on this and asked me to give the update | 19:12 |
| airurando | MilkLabs hackerspace have been approached and asked to host the Jam on Sept 3rd | 19:13 |
| airurando | The initial response has been positive but nothing has been confirmed as of yet. | 19:13 |
| airurando | #link http://groups.google.com/group/limerick-hackerspace/browse_thread/thread/5a63ceb814efbc13 | 19:14 |
| airurando | the above listed e-mail thread gives a good indication of the progress that has been made so far. | 19:14 |
| airurando | infoturtle has done great work on this and hopefully it will all fall into place for him | 19:15 |
| carles-091labs | About the Jam on September | 19:15 |
| carles-091labs | I was going to host one in 091labs but just yesterday i got the news from jefrey about going to electric picnic | 19:16 |
| carles-091labs | so, I won't be able to host it. Not sure if any of our members will take my place | 19:16 |
| airurando | Thats a pity but not to worry. | 19:17 |
| airurando | we'll wait for confirmation from infoturtle before promoting UGJ Limerick | 19:18 |
| airurando | carles-091labs definately next time eh? ;) | 19:18 |
| carles-091labs | I'm at the space at the moment and talking with some of the members. One of them said that he will do it | 19:19 |
| airurando | cool :) | 19:19 |
| airurando | we can chat on that in a minute | 19:19 |
| carles-091labs | ok | 19:19 |
| airurando | but that is brilliant. | 19:19 |
| airurando | #topic ACTION: tdr112 will ask TOG to once again host UGJ Dublin | 19:20 |
| meetingology | TOPIC: ACTION: tdr112 will ask TOG to once again host UGJ Dublin | 19:20 |
| airurando | I know tdr112 asked TOG. | 19:20 |
| airurando | no confirmation as of yet though. | 19:20 |
| airurando | ebel do you know anything on this? | 19:20 |
| ebel | Yes | 19:21 |
| ebel | I will be organising the Dubin global jam in TOG | 19:21 |
| ebel | (at least I'll be approaching TOG about this) | 19:21 |
| ebel | I haven't done it yet, since tdr112 only told me yesterday | 19:21 |
| airurando | OK | 19:22 |
| ebel | But I'll do it within the next few days. It'll take ~ 5 days to get word back from the tog members to confirm/reject it | 19:22 |
| ebel | so we'll know within 5 or 6 days if we can have UGJ at TOG. I am optimistic | 19:22 |
| airurando | OK we'll leave it at that | 19:22 |
| airurando | #action ebel will ask TOG to once again host UGJ Dublin | 19:23 |

| airurando | at least the sun shone mostly | 19:25 |
| airurando | small turnout | 19:25 |
| moylan | can't really think of a better way to get the word out to more people. | 19:25 |
| airurando | but good company | 19:25 |
| moylan | good fun. i enjoyed it. pics will be good come next reapproval :-) | 19:26 |

| mokmeister | everything has to start somewhere! | 19:31 |
| airurando | as few people as you like | 19:31 |
| carles-091labs | I know.... | 19:32 |
| airurando | carles-091labs onto some praticalities | 19:32 |
| airurando | we usually promote these jams on the Ubuntu Wiki, LoCo Directory, our website and twitter/identi.ca | 19:33 |
| airurando | any objection to this? | 19:33 |
| carles-091labs | cool... Hopefully will get some people outside our members | 19:33 |
| carles-091labs | no, no | 19:33 |
| airurando | 091 labs kindly host a Global Jam event etc etc | 19:34 |
| airurando | excellent | 19:34 |
| carles-091labs | We will promote through our channels also | 19:34 |
| airurando | are 091 Labs OK with a 10am to 6pm ish timeframe on 3rd Sept | 19:34 |
| airurando | great promote away | 19:34 |
| airurando | the hope is always to promote the hackerspaces and ubuntu | 19:35 |
| airurando | carles-091labs so you have no objection to me promoting this as outlined above | 19:36 |
| thelodger | Shouldn't be a problem | 19:36 |

| airurando | bah new bot not working properly | 19:39 |
| airurando | moving on | 19:39 |
| airurando | last agenda item | 19:39 |
| airurando | #topic Event Planning | 19:40 |
| meetingology | TOPIC: Event Planning | 19:40 |
| airurando | this is mine also | 19:40 |
| airurando | I'm just wondering whether or not we should try to plan and lock down events alot sooner than we currently do. | 19:41 |
| airurando | I agree with moylan, I don't know how we can get the word out better about events | 19:41 |
| ebel | how do you mean? | 19:41 |
| carles-091labs | what event is this? | 19:41 |
| airurando | carles-091labs all events | 19:42 |
| airurando | geeknics | 19:42 |
| airurando | Ubuntu Hours | 19:42 |
| moylan | just wondering. would a google calendar for ubuntu ireland help? | 19:42 |
| airurando | Jams | 19:42 |
| airurando | moylan the loco dir is supposed to do something along those lines | 19:43 |
| airurando | ebel I mean we don't finalise details of things until a week or two before they are due to happen | 19:43 |
| airurando | Where possible I think we could do alot better on this | 19:44 |
| airurando | geeknics could be organised and agreed upon months in advance | 19:44 |
| airurando | news of the event could filter out better in these situations | 19:45 |
| airurando | Jams should be organised as soon as the dates are announces | 19:45 |
| airurando | *announced | 19:45 |
| airurando | we'll as soon as practical after the announcement | 19:45 |
| airurando | just a thought | 19:46 |
| ebel | hmmm maybe.... | 19:46 |
| ebel | you're right about some events that we know in advance... | 19:46 |
| airurando | I don't think it be much harder to lock the details down sooner | 19:46 |
| airurando | promote them sooner and for a longer period | 19:46 |
| ebel | twould mean being more organised | 19:46 |
| airurando | keep your calanders free kind of stuff | 19:47 |
| airurando | not a whole lot more organised | 19:47 |
| airurando | but a bit | 19:47 |
| airurando | would need to make decisions quicker also | 19:47 |
| airurando | date one month | 19:48 |
| airurando | venue the next | 19:48 |
| airurando | this eats away at time | 19:48 |
| airurando | moylan thoughts | 19:48 |
| airurando | carles-091labs thoughts? | 19:48 |
| airurando | thoughts anyone? | 19:49 |
| moylan | we should streamline the decision process. maybe the next time the doodle poll should be a location + date selection in one poll. | 19:49 |
| moylan | also maybe block book the 1st saturday of the month for events or something... | 19:49 |
| ebel | i agree to try to give it a go, but i'm a terrible one for the procrastinator | 19:50 |
| airurando | haha | 19:50 |
| carles-091labs | we can definetly try | 19:50 |
| airurando | moylan I agree but I think actioning it at one meeting and agreeing on it at the next may even be too long | 19:51 |
| airurando | I just wanted to get folks thinking on this | 19:51 |
| carles-091labs | there's always the mailing list... we don't have to wait that ling | 19:51 |
| carles-091labs | #long | 19:51 |
| airurando | we can leave it here | 19:51 |
| airurando | carles-091labs that is a good idea | 19:52 |
| moylan | might put more activity onto the mailing list | 19:52 |
| airurando | indeed | 19:52 |
| carles-091labs | true | 19:52 |
| airurando | we can all think on it | 19:52 |
| airurando | #topic any other business | 19:53 |
| meetingology | TOPIC: any other business | 19:53 |
| carles-091labs | not from me | 19:53 |
