TakyojiAnyone have a suggestion as an option for having a LoCo member map; just like how Launchpad previously had maps for group members?03:10
JanCTakyoji: what does it have to integrate with?03:13
Takyojilikely a common CMS system; whether it be Drupal or Wordpress; or perhaps even something custom with Django03:14
JanCTakyoji: for Drupal we have http://ubuntu-be.org/nl/supporters  ☺03:15
JanCsources are in LP somewhere, let me find it...03:16
TakyojiOoo, OpenStreetMap03:16
TakyojiI suppose I could even write something myself as well03:16
JanCit does OSM & Google IIRC03:16
TakyojiI wonder how much the API for OSM And Google Maps differs03:17
JanCthere is an API that can be used with both IIRC03:17
JanCTakyoji: https://launchpad.net/support.points.map is the project for this Drupal plugin03:19
JanChelp with it would be appreciated BTW, as Pierre (our main developer) is moving to Canada  ☺03:21
TakyojiI'm not really much of a Drupal person though. :P03:24
JanCneither am I...03:24
JanCTakyoji: I'm still pondering moving to something Django-based, but that would mean I'd become the main dev, I suppose  ;)03:26
Takyojithat's what I was just suggesting to my (I'm not the team contact/leader though) LoCo team. :P03:27
TakyojiBecause I'd be leaning more towards Wordpress, but the leader/contact is wary of Wordpress because of it's past security history (even though it's so much easier to theme for and more), thus I was alternately suggesting something Django-based03:28
Takyojithat's the thing about me, I've been in limbo with CMS solutions for a long time. xP03:28
JanCthe problem is, I don't really want to be the only person working on it03:28
TakyojiBut currently for my own clients I'm using Wordpress for them03:28
TakyojiWhat is the LoCo Directory developed with?03:29
JanCDjango03:29
TakyojiAlso, you can obviously have the source code available for your Django-based solution03:29
Takyojiwould be interesting to work on making a set of tools for LoCo websites in Django. :P03:31
JanCif there would be a supported set of tools, yes03:32
JanCTakyoji: what locoteam do you belong to?03:42
JanCMN = Maine ?03:43
* JanC doesn't remember all US states ;)03:43
TakyojiMinnesota03:43
JanCah03:43
JanCanyway, I'm going off to sleep now03:44
JanCit's 5h45 here  ;)03:44
* JanC was trying to follow the ironman in hawaii despite their useless crap silverlight app... :-(03:45

head_victimQuick question, if someone is paying a nominal fee to hold a stand at a market, would it be acceptable to request 1-2 dollar donations for CDs distributed to Locos to cover the small cost of the stand?10:05

mhall119Takyoji: sorry, https://launchpad.net/loco-directory13:45
leogghead_victim, IMHO there's nothing wrong with accepting donations, as long as it's not a requirement for obtaining a CD13:58
mhall119head_victim: in my experience you'll get more asking for a voluntary donation than requiring a 1-2 dollar one14:20
mhall119doing that with Qimo cds, someone once stuck a $20 bill in our donation bowl for his CD14:21
mhall119you'll also get people donating without even taking a CD14:21
head_victimleogg & mhall119: thanks for the feedback, it's pretty much what I thought but wanted to make sure.20:44
