[03:10] <Takyoji> Anyone have a suggestion as an option for having a LoCo member map; just like how Launchpad previously had maps for group members?
[03:13] <JanC> Takyoji: what does it have to integrate with?
[03:14] <Takyoji> likely a common CMS system; whether it be Drupal or Wordpress; or perhaps even something custom with Django
[03:15] <JanC> Takyoji: for Drupal we have http://ubuntu-be.org/nl/supporters  ☺
[03:16] <JanC> sources are in LP somewhere, let me find it...
[03:16] <Takyoji> Ooo, OpenStreetMap
[03:16] <Takyoji> I suppose I could even write something myself as well
[03:16] <JanC> it does OSM & Google IIRC
[03:17] <Takyoji> I wonder how much the API for OSM And Google Maps differs
[03:17] <JanC> there is an API that can be used with both IIRC
[03:19] <JanC> Takyoji: https://launchpad.net/support.points.map is the project for this Drupal plugin
[03:21] <JanC> help with it would be appreciated BTW, as Pierre (our main developer) is moving to Canada  ☺
[03:24] <Takyoji> I'm not really much of a Drupal person though. :P
[03:24] <JanC> neither am I...
[03:26] <JanC> Takyoji: I'm still pondering moving to something Django-based, but that would mean I'd become the main dev, I suppose  ;)
[03:27] <Takyoji> that's what I was just suggesting to my (I'm not the team contact/leader though) LoCo team. :P
[03:28] <Takyoji> Because 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-based
[03:28] <Takyoji> that's the thing about me, I've been in limbo with CMS solutions for a long time. xP
[03:28] <JanC> the problem is, I don't really want to be the only person working on it
[03:28] <Takyoji> But currently for my own clients I'm using Wordpress for them
[03:29] <Takyoji> What is the LoCo Directory developed with?
[03:29] <JanC> Django
[03:29] <Takyoji> Also, you can obviously have the source code available for your Django-based solution
[03:31] <Takyoji> would be interesting to work on making a set of tools for LoCo websites in Django. :P
[03:32] <JanC> if there would be a supported set of tools, yes
[03:42] <JanC> Takyoji: what locoteam do you belong to?
[03:43] <JanC> MN = Maine ?
[03:43]  * JanC doesn't remember all US states  ;)
[03:43] <Takyoji> Minnesota
[03:43] <JanC> ah
[03:44] <JanC> anyway, I'm going off to sleep now
[03:44] <JanC> it's 5h45 here  ;)
[03:45]  * JanC was trying to follow the ironman in hawaii despite their useless crap silverlight app...  :-(
[05:38] <mhall119> Takyoji: you can get the coe at http://launchpad.net/loco-direcory
[05:38] <Takyoji> I was only curious to see if was Python-based
[05:38] <mhall119> code
[05:44] <Takyoji> also, you mistyped the URL. :P
[10:05] <head_victim> Quick 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?
[13:45] <mhall119> Takyoji: sorry, https://launchpad.net/loco-directory
[13:58] <leogg> head_victim, IMHO there's nothing wrong with accepting donations, as long as it's not a requirement for obtaining a CD
[14:20] <mhall119> head_victim: in my experience you'll get more asking for a voluntary donation than requiring a 1-2 dollar one
[14:21] <mhall119> doing that with Qimo cds, someone once stuck a $20 bill in our donation bowl for his CD
[14:21] <mhall119> you'll also get people donating without even taking a CD
[20:44] <head_victim> leogg & mhall119: thanks for the feedback, it's pretty much what I thought but wanted to make sure.
[23:32] <paultag> mhall119: could I grab some critism from you?
