[20:09] <jledbetter> Saved by pleia2. I had the bot commands page loading. :D

[20:12] <valorie> by chance!
[20:12] <jledbetter> #topic Oneiric Blueprint progress
[20:13] <AlanBell> ooh, that was a bug
[20:13] <nigelb> heh
[20:13] <jledbetter> All caps?
[20:13] <nigelb> testing in production?
[20:13] <IdleOne> o/
[20:13] <jledbetter> nigelb, Haha!
[20:13] <AlanBell> try now :)
[20:13] <jledbetter> #topic Oneiric Blueprint progress

[20:14] <jledbetter> #link https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu-women.org/+spec/community-o-ubuntu-women-project-goals
[20:14] <jledbetter> Hm.
[20:14] <jledbetter> Anyway. There's the link ;)
[20:14] <AlanBell> what is the blocker on the wiki theme update?
[20:15] <pleia2> I haven't had time to finish going through the open bugs
[20:15] <AlanBell> I only noticed today that it hadn't been done, I have been using the new theme when logged in for ages
[20:16] <nigelb> Nothing to update on mentoring yet. I've been swaped. I'd assume likewise for Amber as well.
[20:16] <AlanBell> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-women.org
[20:16] <valorie> swaped=swamped + swiped ?
[20:16] <jledbetter> hehe
[20:16] <nigelb> *swamped :P
[20:16] <valorie> :-)
[20:17] <jledbetter> Ok. Wiki in progress. Mentoring in progress.
[20:17] <jledbetter> AlanBell, Did you want to mention anything regarding the competition?
[20:17] <AlanBell> pleased it is out there
[20:17] <jledbetter> BTW, I updated the U-W home page with a link to it.
[20:18] <jledbetter> Me too :) Gonna be fun. If memory serves, the announcement's on various social media sites and been emailed to u-w mailing list.
[20:18] <AlanBell> someone needs to go begging for prizes
[20:18] <jledbetter> Someone?
[20:18] <nigelb> Yeah
[20:19] <AlanBell> someone that isn't me :)
[20:19] <pleia2> akgraner still works for linux pro, so she said she could help with that
[20:19] <AlanBell> silbs did indicate at UDS that she would be willing to support competitions
[20:19] <jledbetter> Anyone offering to lead up prize gathering?
[20:21] <jledbetter> valorie, Can you lead gathering of prizes? :)
[20:21] <valorie> oooo, I guess so -- whom should I contact?
[20:21] <jledbetter> #action valorie will gather up prizes for the competition
[20:21] <meetingology> ACTION: valorie will gather up prizes for the competition
[20:22] <jledbetter> valorie, silbs and akgraner (linux pro) and... I'm not sure what last years' prizes were honestly. AlanBell: ideas?
[20:22] <valorie> silbs is Jane Silber?
[20:23] <valorie> I can ask Google, for sure
[20:23] <valorie> Carols will head me somewhere if she can't hook us up
[20:23] <pleia2> maybe contact o'reilly too since we're "MAKEing things" :)
[20:23] <jledbetter> Good idea, pleia2.
[20:24] <valorie> bkerensa has that contact, I'll hit him up for the info
[20:24] <jledbetter> valorie, And I'm not sure who silbs is so was waitin' :)
[20:24] <valorie> heh
[20:24] <jledbetter> Awesome! Thank you!
[20:24] <pleia2> yes, that's Jane
[20:24] <jledbetter> Are we ineligible to enter then? ;)
[20:24] <pleia2> I think we're all eligible
[20:24] <jledbetter> Great.
[20:24] <AlanBell> jledbetter: the prizes were pretty good last time, I don't think there are any expectations on what they should be though, any token would be fine
[20:25] <valorie> jono might have some ideas too
[20:25] <valorie> how many prizes am I trying to get?
[20:25] <AlanBell> not masses
[20:25] <valorie> right.....
[20:26] <valorie> but 5? 10?
[20:26] <valorie> someone will have to judge, and award prizes
[20:26] <valorie> correct?
[20:26] <jledbetter> I think we're all voting, right, AlanBell?
[20:27] <jledbetter> We put the entry on the blog and then at the end, vote?
[20:27] <pleia2> I think at the last meeting we decided it would be a vote
[20:27] <valorie> ok
[20:27] <valorie> :-)
[20:27] <AlanBell> voting somehow
[20:27] <jledbetter> Yes
[20:27] <jledbetter> Maybe like the last one? Wasn't that with pollka?
[20:27] <AlanBell> it was
[20:28] <valorie> there is google vote, if nothing else - or monkeypoll or whatever that is
[20:28] <valorie> Pollka is cute
[20:28] <AlanBell> and it could be adapted and pressed into service again
[20:28] <valorie> too
[20:28] <AlanBell> but we have weeks and weeks to figure out that bit :)
[20:28] <jledbetter> Yep! We can add prizes over time too ;)
[20:28] <AlanBell> yup
[20:28] <AlanBell> just don't want more prizes than entries!
[20:29] <valorie> heh
[20:29] <jledbetter> True. Well if that happens, we can lump up prizes to make grander prizes.
[20:29] <valorie> very true
[20:30] <valorie> if I score some smaller bits, they might go together kit-like very nicely
[20:30] <valorie> shall I have stuff shipped to me, or ask them to drop-ship?
[20:31] <AlanBell> just get prize offers first
[20:31] <valorie> ok
[20:31] <AlanBell> vouchers would be good
[20:32] <valorie> INDEED
[20:32] <AlanBell> or a lillypad :)
[20:32] <jledbetter> Heh
[20:33] <jledbetter> Anything else on Ada Lovelace Day?
[20:33] <jledbetter> valorie, Thank you again for gathering the prizes :)
[20:34] <jledbetter> Cheri703, Anything more on Career Days?
[20:34] <Cheri703> oh, sorry, was distracte
[20:34] <Cheri703> d
[20:34] <Cheri703> yes! we are doing our first one on 9/24 at 1600 UTC!
[20:34] <Cheri703> It will be pleia2
[20:34] <jledbetter> Fantastic!
[20:34] <Cheri703> I meant to send it to the mailing list yesterday, will do so today
[20:34] <Cheri703> and then it can get put out to the various blogs and such
[20:34] <pleia2> oh wait, 24?
[20:35] <Cheri703> I thought?
[20:35] <Cheri703> maybe I'm wrong?
[20:35] <pleia2> that conflicts with user days, I thought we were going for the 17th
[20:35] <Cheri703> you said 24 the other day
[20:35] <Cheri703> oh, ok
[20:35] <Cheri703> 17 works too
[20:35] <pleia2> sorry, I might have, but I hadded 17th to my calendar :)
[20:35] <Cheri703> ok, good thing I didn't send to list!
[20:35] <Cheri703> so 9/17!
[20:36] <jledbetter> #info The first career day will be 9/17 at 1600 UTC and will be done by pleia2
[20:36] <nigelb> Are we blogging for Ada Lovelace day?
[20:37] <jledbetter> nigelb, I thought the competition was it.
[20:37] <jledbetter> Part of making could be making words.
[20:37] <nigelb> okay :)
[20:38] <jledbetter> That's what I thought but I could be wrong. Should we do a blogging thing too?
[20:38] <pleia2> the whole world will be doing the blogging thing
[20:38] <jledbetter> True
[20:38] <pleia2> we can pass along info about the blogging day to our members, but it's not really something we need to do as our own project
[20:39] <jledbetter> Sounds good.
[20:40] <jledbetter> #topic Announcements, etc
[20:40] <jledbetter> Any announcements, etc? :)
[20:40] <pleia2> Ubuntu User Days is coming up on the 24-25th
[20:41] <pleia2> we still need instructors :) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDays
[20:41] <pleia2> these are all application-geared type tutorials
[20:41] <nigelb> and maybe some help running the event, especially if you've done classroom sessions before
[20:42] <pleia2> so if you know all about thunderbird, you can do a session on that
[20:42] <jledbetter> #info pleia2 and nigelb mentioned Ubuntu User Days is 24-25. Instructors and volunteers needed: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserDays
[20:42] <pleia2> anyway, if anyone is interested just let me know or drop by #ubuntu-classroom-backstage
[20:43] <jledbetter> Great.:)
[20:43] <jledbetter> Anything else from the floor?
[20:44] <valorie> I would totally attend a Tbird session
[20:45] <valorie> I'll check my calendar -- might be able to do another Kubuntu one if no one else is covering that
[20:45] <pleia2> darkwingduck is doing the kde portion of a kubuntu and xubuntu session
[20:45] <valorie> oh cool
[20:45] <valorie> he's excellent
[20:45] <pleia2> yeah :)
[20:47] <jledbetter> Alright. Since nothing else....
