pleia2akgraner: at our last meeting you said you might get to your mentoring tasks over the holidays, do you have any updates?18:09
pleia2on my side, since I have the wiki done now we'll be working toward simplifying the text on the main ubuntu women page and redirecting to the wiki18:11
pleia2I worked with canonical IS to make sure us wiki admins have the power to make pages immutable, since when we point ubuntu-women.org to the wiki we'll probably want to main page immutable to avoid vandalism18:12
jledbetterpleia2: I can ping akgraner via email and see if I can help. Not on IRC as much since the move but can help via email for sure.18:12
pleia2s/move/new job18:12

pangolinit is pretty bad when we organize events that need to come with "Don't go for a walk" disclaimer18:40
AlanBellMonte Carlo is the only city I have ever wondered about at night and felt totally relaxed18:44
* MarkDude will be there with some others for UDS18:46
pangolinAlanBell: I've never been to Monte Carlo but I will admit that there are parts of my city I would not wonder by myself at night18:46
MarkDudeYou can walk in Oakland, it is best to do IN A GROUP18:46
akkMost cities have parts where it's not safe to walk alone at night.18:47
* MarkDude worked in East Oakland for a while (where the most killings are)18:47
pangolintrue18:47
Cheri703we wandered budapest and it was good18:47
Cheri703at least the areas we were in18:47
MarkDudePlan on taking a cab if worried18:47
MarkDudeAlso avoid the Tenbderloin in SF at night18:48
nigelbI cycled through, got last, and still was safe :)18:48
AlanBellI will walk round London, but I am always fully aware of what is going on around me,  Monte Carlo for some reason felt like wandering around your own house. Strange place.18:48
nigelb(got lost twice)18:48
pleia2I pretty much don't go past 5th and market in SF alone at night18:48
* MarkDude wanders around SF during day looking like a tourist, no prob18:48
pleia2civic center gets creepy18:49
* MarkDude looks up at buildings- says wow18:49
pleia2but I'm fine east of market to the embarcadero18:49
pleia2err, east of market and 5th18:49
MarkDudenightime - look straight ahead18:49
* pleia2 walks through financial district alone at night often18:49
pleia2it's touristy, well lit, and lots of cameras18:50
MarkDudeFinancial is just fine, unless you stray towards the Tenderloin18:50
* MarkDude has taken wrong turn before18:50
MarkDudeHmmm, I think these folks are selling me drugs..... I am not even sure what a 37 is18:50

MarkDudeI mean its also called Oaksterdam18:51
