pleia2 | DarkwingDuck: pong | 00:05 |
DarkwingDuck | pleia2, have you dealt with finding sponsors for cost of booths before? | 00:05 |
pleia2 | DarkwingDuck: it depends, I've had individuals and companies offer the team donations when we needed money for something | 00:06 |
pleia2 | haven't made any kind of organized effort to find such a thing though | 00:06 |
DarkwingDuck | pleia2, ahh, I'm about to go shopping for help. :) | 00:06 |
DarkwingDuck | O'Reilly is sending something. LinuxFoundation.org wants to send something... | 00:07 |
pleia2 | seems like bkerensa is the one to ask about booth goodies, he's pretty good at taking the time to track down stuff | 00:08 |
pleia2 | I've never really done it though | 00:08 |
DarkwingDuck | Yeah, I'm doing good with the booth goodies. I'm more worried about $200 for the booth. | 00:08 |
pleia2 | for solano stroll members of berkeleylug donated the cash | 00:09 |
pleia2 | at meetings jdeslip just collects it | 00:09 |
* DarkwingDuck nods | 00:09 | |
DarkwingDuck | Well, when Linux Foundation asked what we needed I mentioned a booth sponsor. | 00:09 |
DarkwingDuck | So, we shall see what happens. | 00:10 |
* pleia2 nods | 00:10 | |
DarkwingDuck | I don't mind having a "Sponsored By" sign on the booth. | 00:10 |
DarkwingDuck | I should have plenty of swag by the end of this. | 00:11 |
Thundaboom | "Sponsored by red hat!" x3 | 00:26 |
DarkwingDuck | LOL | 00:33 |
DarkwingDuck | bkerensa, ping | 00:34 |
Thundaboom | "Tell you what. We'll give you the cash if you ALSO burn 200 Red Hat CDs. Deal?" | 00:46 |
Thundaboom | I would love to donate for this, btw. | 00:46 |
DarkwingDuck | Hmm? | 00:53 |
MarkDude_ | RH cds? | 00:56 |
MarkDude_ | Gets me a few of those | 00:56 |
Thundaboom | Donate for your booth fund | 00:57 |
Thundaboom | MarkDude: hahah | 00:58 |
bkerensa | DarkwingDuck: Hello | 01:04 |
DarkwingDuck | bkerensa, care for a PM? | 01:04 |
bkerensa | DarkwingDuck: Surely | 01:04 |
bkerensa | pleia2: Hey I just wanted to note that were getting our banner sponsored and I ran it by council they even thought it was a good idea =) | 01:11 |
bkerensa | somewhere on the banner it will say "Sponsored by:" logo here | 01:12 |
Thundaboom | Wish I could visit that booth when it's up :/ | 01:12 |
bkerensa | I know | 01:13 |
bkerensa | I keep having this thought that since OSCON is in Oregon and Scale is in California | 01:13 |
bkerensa | we should be roadtripping to each others states | 01:13 |
bkerensa | :D | 01:13 |
DarkwingDuck | I would LOVE to... Hard for me to Road Trip anywhere LOL | 01:14 |
DarkwingDuck | I live a mile and a half from Mexico LOL | 01:14 |
bkerensa | Does Mexico have a LoCo? | 01:14 |
bkerensa | :D | 01:15 |
DarkwingDuck | Don't know LOL | 01:15 |
bkerensa | I love Mexico... Super cheap mexican food.... But I have never been to Tijuana just some Arizona/Mexico Border towns | 01:15 |
DarkwingDuck | But, I'm 6 miles south of San Diego LOL | 01:15 |
DarkwingDuck | even to get to SCaLE it's almost 2 hours north | 01:15 |
philipballew | a joint effort on scale would be pretty cool though | 01:16 |
bkerensa | Jetblue maybe? | 01:18 |
Thundaboom | I've only been to one linux expo and that was Scale | 01:19 |
Thundaboom | i was the youngest guy there >__< | 01:19 |
philipballew | i can make it to Portland from sd in 20 hours | 01:20 |
bkerensa | philipballew: Are you in SD? | 01:22 |
philipballew | yeah bkerensa i go to college here | 01:22 |
* bkerensa can barely make it from North of San Francisco to Portland in 8 | 01:22 | |
bkerensa | :d | 01:22 |
philipballew | you dont have much to stop and look at on the journey | 01:23 |
bkerensa | But thats taking 101 | 01:23 |
bkerensa | :D | 01:23 |
Thundaboom | well you guys should totally go to 10x | 01:23 |
philipballew | the 5 is the way to do it if you can | 01:23 |
* bkerensa wants to go to 10x but I think I wont.... Maybe next year WA/OR can rent a van and hit the road or maybe I will fly | 01:23 | |
bkerensa | :D | 01:23 |
* bkerensa needs to talk to family member and see if he can use their Intel flight rates :D | 01:24 | |
philipballew | scale or bust bkerensa ? | 01:24 |
bkerensa | idk | 01:25 |
bkerensa | :P | 01:25 |
bkerensa | You should all come up for OSCON in 2012 though.... Were gonna have a big afterhours thing :D | 01:25 |
philipballew | i can probably do jusy if i plan for it | 01:25 |
philipballew | i'm considering riding my bike to scale. that might be a challenge | 01:25 |
bkerensa | =o | 01:26 |
bkerensa | How? | 01:26 |
bkerensa | Freeways? | 01:26 |
philipballew | tons of side streets! | 01:26 |
philipballew | google maps should show me how to i think | 01:26 |
philipballew | i look it up once | 01:27 |
philipballew | it takes 12 hours | 01:27 |
Thundaboom | oh noes! | 01:40 |
Thundaboom | well man | 01:40 |
Thundaboom | it's TOTALLY worth it | 01:40 |
philipballew | hey! DarkwingDuck I wonder if there are any linux friendly companies who might like to see us there who can help? also I can help with whatever else to | 02:05 |
DarkwingDuck | philipballew, Yeah. I'm looking too. | 02:06 |
DarkwingDuck | I got a blog post out so, we'll see what happens. | 02:06 |
philipballew | read it, I think we can get some companies to help if say on the cd's or something we put provided by said company | 02:07 |
DarkwingDuck | Yup | 02:07 |
DarkwingDuck | I was planning something like that. | 02:07 |
philipballew | sounds sweet! should be fun. | 02:08 |
DarkwingDuck | Got some people sending stuff. | 02:08 |
DarkwingDuck | :D | 02:08 |
philipballew | will 11.10 be out then? | 02:08 |
philipballew | i think it might | 02:09 |
DarkwingDuck | I think it releases the same week... | 02:09 |
philipballew | thats what i was thinking | 02:13 |
philipballew | the location is right next to me. ill be sure to be there everyday. | 02:16 |
* philipballew offers his floor to all who want to risk it and need a place to stay | 02:16 | |
philipballew | assuming we have dozens working the booth. haha | 02:18 |
philipballew | DarkwingDuck, I'm gonna see if i can find some good avenues to advertise the event and also bring in a few bucks. | 02:46 |
DarkwingDuck | philipballew, anything you can do will be epic :D | 02:50 |
philipballew | excellent!!! | 02:52 |
pleia2 | he excellented himself off the irc | 02:54 |
akk | and here I thought joining irc was more excellent than leaving it | 02:55 |
DarkwingDuck | lol | 02:56 |

jyo | pleia2: So I want to burn 11.04 32-bit for Solano, correct? | 18:59 |
pleia2 | jyo: yep | 19:00 |
pleia2 | jyo: and I'd recommend randomly sampling a few you burn to make sure the burns go ok (nothing personal, but we sometimes get complaints about bad burns so we want to make sure they're spot checked :)) | 19:01 |
jyo | pleia2: Yeah, I'll use a slower speed as well. | 19:02 |
jyo | Hmm. Where's the 'Check disk for errors' in the startup for these 'new' LiveCDs? | 19:21 |
pleia2 | I'd just make sure it boots into the livecd, if it gets that far it's probably fine | 19:26 |
pleia2 | or just run an md5 check against it | 19:26 |
DarkwingDuck | Woot! Sponsorship approved. | 19:38 |
philipballew | DarkwingDuck, your the man! but how? | 19:38 |
pleia2 | congrats :) see you there! | 19:39 |
philipballew | all the kubuntu work i guess? | 19:39 |
philipballew | who all from the loco is going to uds? | 19:40 |
broder | i'll be there | 19:42 |
philipballew | Florida right? | 19:43 |
broder | yeah | 19:43 |
broder | need to actually book my hotel room, though... | 19:43 |
philipballew | do you know when they find out when the one in may is? | 19:43 |
philipballew | your sponsered to broder ? | 19:43 |
broder | philipballew: my company's sponsoring me this time | 19:44 |
broder | they've traditionally announced the next location at the end of the previous UDS | 19:44 |
broder | i think it was unusual that we knew UDS-P would be at Florida before UDS-O actually happened | 19:44 |
broder | but i haven't been paying attention for too, too long | 19:44 |
philipballew | oh nice. what do you do for a living? | 19:45 |
broder | i work for MokaFive | 19:45 |
broder | bay area software startup | 19:45 |
DarkwingDuck | pleia2, You are going to be there? | 19:46 |
pleia2 | DarkwingDuck: yep | 19:46 |
philipballew | oh nice. I need to find a sweet job like that. Im looking more for an internship though now | 19:46 |
pleia2 | hence my "see you there!" :) | 19:46 |
broder | philipballew: how much development background do you have? we're always looking for people with ubuntu dev experience, and we take interns | 19:51 |
DarkwingDuck | broder, What area of devel? | 19:53 |
philipballew | broder, im getting there. I'm down to learn but im a computer information systems major currently in sd. I do python and am attempting currently to learn c and languages of that sort. should have them down soon. broder I do more sysadmin stuff lately | 20:00 |
broder | DarkwingDuck: sorry, got pulled away for real life discussion :). we're mostly looking for plumbing (including desktop plumbing) folks | 20:20 |
broder | though we'd be glad to talk to anyone with any sort of linux background, because that's half the battle in many cases | 20:20 |
DarkwingDuck | broder, care for a PM? | 20:21 |
broder | sure | 20:21 |
jyo | Is the paper origami ubuntu-us-ca LiveCD case design available somewhere? | 20:29 |
pleia2 | http://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-california | 20:30 |
pleia2 | you want the 2010branding-sleeves | 20:30 |
jyo | Okay, so everything is under code.launchpad junk. Cool. :) | 20:31 |
pleia2 | yep | 20:31 |

seidos | everytime i join an irc channel i get dr. nick's voice (from the Simpsons) saying "hi everybody!" | 23:28 |
seidos | it's only in my head | 23:28 |
MarkDude | Sounds cool seidos | 23:53 |
MarkDude | I can relate | 23:53 |
seidos | MarkDude: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqImkDgDwHU&feature=results_main&playnext=1&list=PLF5E61FC8FE6A2BC1 | 23:54 |
MarkDude | Yep, I know Dr Nick | 23:55 |
