| newme | heh, i'm new here, is this group really that active? | 01:08 |
|---|---|---|
| Takyoji | Not very active, at all | 02:02 |
| Takyoji | but we're alive through other means | 02:02 |
| newme | like what? and is there anything going on outside of the cities? | 02:04 |
| Takyoji | Not outside of the metro, that I know of. There's an installfest every 6 months, which most Ubuntu LoCo folks participate in | 02:06 |
| Takyoji | I'm pretty much by myself down in the Faribault area. | 02:07 |
| newme | anyone that you know of way down southwest? like luverne or that area? | 02:09 |
| Takyoji | Oy, I'm not sure if there's anyone in that area, that I know of. | 02:13 |
| newme | is the group growing much? | 02:15 |
| Takyoji | It's a bit static, as there's been really nothing outside of installfests | 02:20 |
| newme | how long have you been a member? | 02:22 |
| Takyoji | 2-3 years or so, I think | 02:22 |
| newme | what do people do for installfests? | 02:25 |
| Takyoji | First, are you familiar with what an installfest is? | 02:25 |
| newme | i assume everyone parties over the new release and a lot of info gets passed around about it? | 02:26 |
| Takyoji | Essentially it's where those whom are curious of Linux, to bring in their laptop/desktop, to get help with installing it, and with any other help in general. | 02:32 |
| newme | over irc? | 02:33 |
| Takyoji | In person | 02:33 |
| newme | ic, so where would someone who would like to participate in one find info on it if they don't first have ubuntu? how would they know about it? | 02:34 |
| Takyoji | Through promotion through friends, family, or just posters in a public setting. | 02:36 |
| Takyoji | It's just a matter of someone hosting one in the area, in the first place. | 02:37 |
| newme | do you think that a lot of the people that have ubuntu in MN are members of the loco? | 02:40 |
