[20:58] has the meeting happened? [20:59] hasn't happened yet [20:59] i thought it was 9 [20:59] it was an easier time for all [20:59] yes 9pm [20:59] http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-ie/308/detail/ as is on the agenda [20:59] and something to do while wikipedia is offline :-) [20:59] ok [21:00] np [21:00] well we could start now, or wait a few mins for people to join ☺ [21:00] wait 5 mins might be best [21:00] aye [21:03] so... how's everyone doing?

[21:08] PRESENT [21:08] PRESENT [21:08] PRESENT [21:09] here [21:09] the agenda for this meeting is here http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-ie/308/detail/ [21:09] #link http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-ie/308/detail/ [21:09] PRESENT [21:10] #topic review [21:10] #subtopic DNS [21:10] (Changing ubuntu-ie.org DNS to point to blacknight) [21:10] I haven't looked into this yet, sorry. [21:10] christmas happened. :-) [21:10] Canonical have some fancy commands you can do to change DNS parameters w/ permissions etc. [21:11] but haven't looked into it yet. [21:11] sorry, i'll try to look into again [21:11] #subtopic [21:12] #subtopic infoturtle to be ready to maintain, install & admin new website [21:12] but infoturtle isn't here.... [21:13] perhaps we leave this until later, infoturtle might show up [21:13] shelve it till next meeting? [21:13] #subtopic ebel to reply to people w.r.t. cds [21:13] I have replied to everyone who expressed an interest in getting some CDs, and gave my address. I haven't recieved any SAEs and haven't sent any CDs out ☹ [21:14] So we still have about half the CDs left. [21:14] Anyone want any? [21:15] i use netbooks so cds are superfluous [21:15] I'm unsure why the uptake has been so low this time, could be a combination of (a) me idlying too long with sending them out (b) people waiting for LTS (c) "send me a SAE" is more effort than when I posted them CDs for free [21:16] i think these days most installs are from usb [21:17] perhaps... [21:19] any comments on the review of previous action items? [21:19] no [21:19] #topic Campuscon this Saturday from tdr112 [21:20] http://campuscon.hackingwit.com/ [21:20] i will be along this weekend [21:20] and i will be giving a talk and giving out ubuntu cd after / during the event [21:20] Did you get the CDs I left in TOG? Do you want/need any more? [21:21] i have them [21:21] i am in tog now [21:22] if any is in the area feel free to drop by and get a cd [21:22] thats all [21:23] cool [21:23] anything else we can do to help? [21:23] nope , thanks for the cds [21:24] kewl [21:24] #topic Any other business? [21:24] We've reached the end of the agenda, any other business? [21:24] can't think of any [21:25] all done here [21:25] Oh, I should mention that I'll get the DNS looked at by next meeting [21:25] #agreed ebel to look at DNS for next meeting [21:27] AOB? [21:28] nope [21:28] #endmeeting [21:28] Meeting ended Wed Jan 18 21:28:05 2012 UTC. [21:28] Minutes: http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-ie/2012/ubuntu-ie.2012-01-18-21.08.moin.txt [21:28] thanks for coming everyone! [21:28] thanks for hosting [21:28] np [21:28] Finally made it to my first meeting! Was painless (lots to learn) [21:29] i must go through the old minutes to see if there's anything there that could be useful [21:29] Victor9098: cool. feel free to say anything you want [21:31] ebel: Thanks you [21:33] thought today with sections of the web offline there would be more irc activity. much less though. twitter was busier though [21:35] hehehe [21:37] Do not think the students trying to write essays will have rushed to the irc, maybe if it was the end of semester there would have been more of a panic [21:38] well when one medium goes down i would have expected them to use another channel (irc/twitter) or step away from computer entirely. seeing one medium twitter busier than irc though to my mind is odd.
