[02:11] <pleia2> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UDS-Q/OtherEvents
[02:11] <philipballew> when were in our "daily lives" finding another Ubuntu user is not always common, however here I will be and thats alwways a nice treat
[02:11] <pleia2> there!
[02:12] <philipballew> we need to have all places to visit accessible by transit I assume
[02:15] <philipballew> well pleia2 I guess the meeting is about over. I can do the post meeting logs monday
[02:15] <pleia2> yeah, we have a good list coning togethr
[02:16] <pleia2> wait, release parties :)
[02:16] <philipballew> oh thats right!
[02:16] <pleia2> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/PreciseRelease
[02:16] <pleia2> so far only san francisco
[02:17] <philipballew> I assume that will stay. SD here is probably bot gonna happen as I will not be able to do anything
[02:17] <pleia2> i need to add it to that page
[02:17] <pleia2> anyone else from ubuntu hours want to do anything?
[02:18] <philipballew> I just got 12 books from oriley for the sd ubuntu hour to pass out a couple each to people who come to the next meeting
[02:19] <pleia2> http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-california/1615/detail/ is sf details, thirsty bear as usual ;)
[02:19] <pleia2> sweet
[02:20] <eps> How about a *real* release party, at a place where you can get a seat, it isn't so noisy you can't hear yourself thing, there are power outlets, Wi-Fi, and better food choices?
[02:20] <eps> s/thing/think
[02:21] <pleia2> oh, grantbow and i will be doinf a presentation on 12.04 at balug next month
[02:21] <philipballew> nice!
[02:21] <pleia2> eps: you're welcome to plan one
[02:22] <eps> I thought I already had ... but you tabled discussion at the last meeting, unilaterally dictated something different, and I still can't edit the Wiki.
[02:22] <pleia2> eps: we arent restricted to one night or one venue
[02:23] <eps> I still can't edit the Wiki.
[02:23] <eps> Can we talk about UDS?
[02:23] <pleia2> events go in loco.ubuntu.com now
[02:23] <jyo> MarkDude: We should start figuring out who wants to baseball during UDS.
[02:23] <pleia2> we just add the link to the wiki
[02:24] <eps> OK, move https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UDS-Q/OtherEvents to loco.ubuntu.com.
[02:24] <philipballew> jyo, I do!!!
[02:24] <pleia2> if we want to do a panera release too someone needs to take a lead there, i dont have time beyond a simppe thirsty bear thing :(
[02:25] <pleia2> eps: we can once its formalized
[02:25] <eps> Can we discuss UDS now?
[02:26] <pleia2> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/UDS-Q
[02:26] <eps> Yes, a page I can't edit.
[02:26] <pleia2> is the ideas page
[02:26] <pleia2> you can share ideas now
[02:26] <philipballew> I assume your logged in eps ?
[02:26] <pleia2> someone who can edit it will add them
[02:27] <eps> philipballew: yes. It's the *only* think my ID doesn't work on.
[02:27] <eps> San Francisco Tourism: can this start any earlier?
[02:27] <pleia2> once ideas are finaluzed we create the loco.ubuntu event like i did for tourism and add it to the non-california uds page
[02:28] <pleia2> eps: no, sessions dontvend until 6pm
[02:28] <philipballew> what is the best way to make a decision for what event/s we should do?
[02:29] <pleia2> we dont needvto decidevreallu, just find someone tovrun it
[02:29] <eps> I'm asking for a reason ... rather than take BART into The City, I was going to suggest the ferry, which leaves at 6:55 p.m. http://www.eastbayferry.com/when/aopm.html
[02:30] <philipballew> well it seems someone is setting up a bball game?
[02:30] <jyo> MarkDude can get tickets or group tickets.
[02:30] <jyo> but need to figure out number of people
[02:30] <pleia2> eps: we can try, but people tend to like to change and freshen up after sessions, so it takes a whhile to gsther everyone
[02:31] <pleia2> 6:55 isvprobably optimistic for getting everyone to a ferry
[02:31] <philipballew> jyo, the Woman running uds details can probably tell you
[02:31] <pleia2> jyo: a uds mailing list exists
[02:32] <pleia2> last uds i had ppl email me for rsvp if tjey couldnt ise loco.ubuntu
[02:32] <eps> The next one is 7:55. The earlier one makes for a better photo op.
[02:33] <eps> I also don't know how late people want to stay up ... ideally you want them to be still functional the next morning.
[02:34] <pleia2> jyo: unfortunately we had to estimate when we got invisivle exhibition ticoets, we were fortunate they were flexible
[02:34] <pleia2> baseball ticketsbare more tricky
[02:34] <philipballew> ubuntu night at the park!
[02:35] <pleia2> people tend to stay out late, coffee is for funtionality :)
[02:35] <eps> The As could be in Toronto for all we know
[02:35] <pleia2> they are home that week
[02:35] <jyo> Blue Jays and Tigers
[02:36] <philipballew> both good teams to watch
[02:37] <pleia2> my battery is dying, i'll read the logs after and update the wiki with more ideas
[02:37] <philipballew> sounds good. someone can close the meeting soon.
[02:39] <philipballew> unless anyone has anything else to say we can close it now?
[02:41] <philipballew> end meeting
[02:58] <MarkDude> Uh

[17:23] <jta_> greg-g:  i am a media freelancer for conferences...most of mine attendance is in the 10s of thousands, lol...

[17:24] <jta_> shucks...
[17:27] <jta_> hmmm....i was the guy that was pushing ubuntu studio and blender down here in san diego if anybody remembers....i'm still doing it...but i have a renewed push since blender and other media/audio programs are getting very mature...like ardour...
[17:28] <jta_> i don't know if anybody here now is into all that...
[17:28] <jta_> i'll check out the wiki...
