[00:00] <Flare183> Alright now
[00:00] <Flare183> Let's get his rolling
[00:00] <Flare183> First off, Introductions.
[00:00] <Flare183> Anyone want to go first? or should I start off on myself?
[00:01] <Weudel> go ahead
[00:01] <Flare183> heh, alright.
[00:01] <Flare183> I'm Jesse, aka Flare183. I'm a 20 year old geek that uses Linux.
[00:02] <Flare183> I've been the team leader for a while, and due to some real life stuff, I haven't been able to really do much with the team.
[00:02] <Flare183> This has changed. And I would like to get this team up and running again.
[00:03] <Flare183> Now, enough about me. Who's next? Or do you guys have any questions?
[00:04] <Flare183> akgraner: Ping?
[00:04] <pla> I am Patrick L Archiald (PLA). I use Ubuntu at home and at work. I am a MythTV fan. This is my first Ubuntu SC meeting. Just checking it out.
[00:04] <Flare183> pla: Well, its nice to have you here, I'm happy to see you here.
[00:04] <Weudel> I'm Jon, aka Weudel,  I work in Communications for the railroad.  I am a forum moderator on XDA-developers, and a hack lyricist/vocalist/blogger.  I am running Ubuntu Studio 11.10....
[00:05] <Flare183> Awesome :D
[00:05] <Weudel> and Chrome OS
[00:05] <Flare183> Anyone else?
[00:06] <Weudel> Stones?
[00:06] <Flare183> scatteredstones?
[00:06] <scatteredstones> I'm Bob, aka, scatteredstones. basically just a Ubuntu user for a few years. no expert.  running 11.10
[00:07] <scatteredstones> not sure what i can do for the loco, but i  look forward to making some contribution
[00:07] <pla> Is http://www.ubuntusc.com/ supposed to be the group's website? I had the RSS feed for it in my reader. Looks like only some French postings as of late.
[00:07] <Flare183> pla: Nope, its a placeholder
[00:07] <pla> k
[00:07] <Flare183> and we're not going to be using that site for much longer
[00:07] <Flare183> its going to be ubuntu-sc.org
[00:07] <Flare183> I'm going to be registering soon,
[00:07] <Flare183> and all of the members on the Web team will have access to it
[00:08] <Weudel> nice
[00:08] <Flare183> Alright.
[00:08] <Flare183> Next off.
[00:08] <Flare183> Topic: Where are we at?
[00:09] <Flare183> Well to explain to everyone. This team is DEAD
[00:09] <Flare183> Like you just died om minecraft dead xD
[00:09] <Weudel> right
[00:09] <Flare183> Anyways
[00:09] <jbicha> akgraner is in NC
[00:09] <Flare183> jbicha: yup, I know
[00:10] <Flare183> he's my advisor lol
[00:10] <jbicha> (she)
[00:10] <Flare183> Since I'm so young and such, being a team leader is a bit load bearing
[00:10] <Flare183> Excuse me
[00:10] <Flare183> :x
[00:10] <jbicha> I am a volunteer on the Desktop & Documentation Teams
[00:11] <Flare183> jbicha: We've met I think
[00:11] <Flare183> I'm not sure
[00:11] <jbicha> Flare183: not in person I don't think
[00:11] <Flare183> Nah, in the #ubuntu channel maybe
[00:11] <Flare183> Again, I'm not sure.
[00:11] <Weudel> so, we were in the "we're dead" phase....
[00:11] <Flare183> mhm
[00:11] <jbicha> it was this channel this summer
[00:11] <Flare183> I'm planning fixing that
[00:12] <Flare183> Its time for a change
[00:12] <Flare183> I'm going to planning a Ubuntu Hour in Clemson sometime soon
[00:12] <Flare183> That's later on.
[00:13] <Flare183> If you would like to know what a Ubuntu Hour is, then check out this page: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/17/detail/
[00:13] <Flare183> I think that's the right link
[00:13] <Flare183> Next up: Website
[00:14] <Flare183> Now who would like to be apart of the web team?
[00:14] <Flare183> We're going to be using Drupal
[00:14] <Weudel> No experience with Drupal, but I can give it a shot...
[00:15] <jbicha> I know WP & MediaWiki & run my own website
[00:15] <Flare183> Alright 2 people, anyone else
[00:15] <Flare183> ?
[00:15] <Weudel> I just mess around with WordPress a bit
[00:15] <Flare183> Its the same thing really
[00:15] <jbicha> what domain name?
[00:16] <Flare183> Its not up at the moment
[00:16] <Flare183> But its going to be Ubuntu-sc.org
[00:16] <Weudel> hasn't been purchased yet
[00:16] <Flare183> Exactly
[00:17] <Flare183> Moving on. Lastly, activity.
[00:17] <Flare183> What can we do, to boost activity in and around this team?
[00:17] <Flare183> And what can we do to spread Ubuntu's "Love"?
[00:18] <Weudel> Do we have CDs or anything we could hand out at the Tech After 5s and similar events?
[00:18] <Flare183> Yes, we can order massive packets of CD's
[00:18] <Flare183> and I ship them to you if you like.
[00:18] <Weudel> I could man the Greenville one.
[00:18] <Flare183> Alright, sounds great.
[00:18] <Flare183> Anyone else?
[00:18] <Weudel> What areas are we all in?
[00:19] <scatteredstones> Charleston
[00:19] <Flare183> I live in Oconee County
[00:19] <Weudel> I'm in Easley.
[00:19] <Flare183> And I goto college at Tri-County tech
[00:19] <pla> Goose Creek which is near Charleston SC
[00:19] <Weudel> Stones... could you go to Tech After 5 in Charleston and hand out some CDs and answer basic questions about how you like Ubuntu?
[00:20] <scatteredstones> i could try. haven't been to one before.
[00:21] <Weudel> looks like the next one's November 15th
[00:21]  * Flare183 is glad to see people talking about this finally :3

[00:21] <scatteredstones> cool. thanks'
[00:22] <Weudel> and Greenville's on the 16th.
[00:23] <Weudel> Doesn't look like they've announced where SELF will be held next year, but Greenville was one of the options, so we will have to keep that in the back of our minds
[00:24] <Weudel> Anyone else know of any tech events we could get to?
[00:24] <pla> Last I heard SELF was going to be in Charlotte.
[00:24] <Flare183> I SHOULD be able to goto SELF this year
[00:24] <Flare183> derp
[00:24] <Flare183> not if its held there
[00:24] <Flare183> Also
[00:24] <Flare183> The robotics events
[00:24] <Weudel> @ Clemson?
[00:24] <Flare183> If you guys have any interest in seeing them, let me know we will go there together if you like
[00:24] <Flare183> Yes
[00:25] <Flare183> and Columbia
[00:25] <Flare183> maybe FL if possible
[00:25] <Weudel> FL has an awesome LoCo that can take care of themselves :D
[00:25] <Flare183> xD
[00:25] <Flare183> Weudel: I've been talking to them :P
[00:26] <jbicha> posscon dates are finalized, March 28-30
[00:26] <Flare183> oh?
[00:26] <Flare183> hmmm
[00:26] <Flare183> well
[00:27] <jbicha> speakers aren't final yet
[00:27] <Flare183> You guys don't mind me being the team leader? (just wondering, since I'm so young :<)
[00:28] <jbicha> don't worry about age
[00:28] <scatteredstones> not at all.
[00:28] <Weudel> bring the energy and we'll try to figure out the logistics :D
[00:28] <Flare183> hehe Alright, awesome
[00:28] <Weudel> at this point we just need to do SOMETHING
[00:29] <Flare183> Weudel: I agree
[00:29] <Weudel> so, when are you looking at starting the Ubuntu hours?
[00:30] <Flare183> sometime around 12:00EDT at Clemson
[00:30] <Flare183> In the hendrix center
[00:30] <Flare183> (Clemson University)
[00:30] <Weudel> when, as in how soon/what days...
[00:31] <Flare183> Not sure yet
[00:31] <Flare183> I have a busy schedule to to working at a dinging hall and going to tech
[00:32] <Weudel> okay... I could probably do a Saturday in Clemson here or there, but might have kids in tow
[00:32] <jbicha> do the kids like open source?
[00:32] <Flare183> That's understable
[00:32] <Flare183> xD
[00:32] <Weudel> my 8 yr old wears here Ubuntu Developers Conf shirt I snagged her at SELF with pride.
[00:33] <Flare183> Nice!
[00:33] <Weudel> and runs Windows 7 on her netbook :/
[00:33] <Flare183> That's sad tho :<
[00:34] <Weudel> once they get Netflix to work on Linux I'll be able to convert her
[00:34] <Flare183> Wine..
[00:34] <Weudel> what? IE in WINE?
[00:35] <Flare183> No
[00:35] <Flare183> the Netflix program :P
[00:35] <Weudel> indeed

[00:36] <Flare183> and I'll do my best to ship them :3
[00:37] <jbicha> Flare183: are you buying them from Canonical or making them?
[00:37] <Weudel> if you plan on doing something in Clemson before then I could probably just grab them in person...
[00:37] <Flare183> jbicha: No, LoCo teams get BATCHES of CD's for free
[00:37] <Flare183> Like I'm talking 20+ CD's
[00:38] <Weudel> yeh, and guitar picks and other stuff, too
[00:39] <Flare183> xD
[00:39] <Flare183> They don't offer that :P
[00:39] <Weudel> oh well

[00:40] <Flare183> hehe yyup
[00:40] <Flare183> -y

[00:41] <scatteredstones> will do
[00:41] <Weudel> and I'll do the same.
