| Flare183 | Bryanstein: | 21:20 |
| Flare183 | Um | 21:21 |
| Flare183 | rather, is there anyone in here? | 21:21 |
| Bryanstein | Flare183, yes? | 21:21 |
| Flare183 | Hi, I'm back after having some issues with my family. | 21:21 |
| Flare183 | and I'm here in need, I need someone to help me run this community | 21:21 |
| Flare183 | Being one of the youngest team leaders of entire loco board is hard on me | 21:22 |
| Flare183 | Bryanstein: would you like to be that person? | 21:24 |
| Bryanstein | Flare183, well...I'm a Floridian but I'm always in SC...this thing has been dead for quite some time | 21:25 |
| Flare183 | Yes it has | 21:26 |
| Bryanstein | we reached out to you guys a few times and got no response | 21:26 |
| Flare183 | Bryanstein: well I'm here now | 21:26 |
| Flare183 | And we need help | 21:26 |
| Bryanstein | I'm the speaker coordinator of Southeast Linux Fest... | 21:26 |
| Flare183 | lol | 21:26 |
| Flare183 | I can't even goto SELF | 21:26 |
| Flare183 | I'm 21, I'm lacking resources (money, etc) to run this without help | 21:26 |
| Bryanstein | there was an Ubucon at last years SELF and errr no one ponged back from here | 21:26 |
| Bryanstein | Flare183, why do you need $$$ to herd people | 21:27 |
| Bryanstein | ? | 21:27 |
| Flare183 | Nah, I need the money to get the domain back running. But yes we do need people | 21:27 |
| Flare183 | The people matter the most | 21:27 |
| Flare183 | and the last few meetings I've asked many people to do such things, with no results | 21:27 |
| Flare183 | :/ | 21:27 |
| Flare183 | Bryanstein: I'm almost ready to give up my team leader status and just be a member again, but I can't do that. I want this team to work | 21:29 |
| Bryanstein | Flare183, well this is the thing...from what i've seen and heard from going to Ubucon's is that many loco's try and do their own thing and branch off | 21:29 |
| * Flare183 sighs | 21:30 | |
| Flare183 | So that's why this place is dead | 21:30 |
| Flare183 | I will work on this. I have a few people that use Ubuntu in my own county, so I'll do what I can. I also will try to do this and keep trying | 21:30 |
| Bryanstein | well the thing is this...like you said..you need the site up and xyz...there are many things that are in place already that you can use to communicate with others | 21:30 |
| Flare183 | Yes, and I plan on using them all this time | 21:31 |
| Flare183 | I just need to get my thoughts going and such | 21:31 |
| Bryanstein | http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-southcarolina | 21:31 |
| Flare183 | yes I know | 21:32 |
| Flare183 | and recluse is gone | 21:32 |
| Bryanstein | http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-southcarolina/events | 21:32 |
| Flare183 | I can't even find him | 21:32 |
| Bryanstein | lol well... | 21:32 |
| jbicha | hi, is this another unscheduled meeting? | 21:32 |
| Flare183 | jbicha: no, I'm just discussing the reason this place is dead...again | 21:32 |
| Bryanstein | get a full understanding of how the open source ecosystem works | 21:32 |
| Bryanstein | recluse != the whole loco | 21:33 |
| Flare183 | lol I know this | 21:33 |
| Bryanstein | lol ok so keep the ball rolling | 21:33 |
| Flare183 | I need to accept my role and quit derping | 21:33 |
| jbicha | we're doing good things in Columbia with Ubuntu & other tech | 21:34 |
| * Flare183 sighs | 21:34 | |
| Flare183 | jbicha: yeah, things that need to be brought here | 21:34 |
| Flare183 | actually | 21:34 |
| Flare183 | in fact | 21:34 |
| jbicha | I can't lead the group but we'd like to work with whoever does lead the group | 21:34 |
| Flare183 | jbicha: I want you to talk to your guys over there and the next meeting, I want your guys over here ok? | 21:35 |
| Flare183 | I lead it. | 21:35 |
| Flare183 | And I will keep trying to move this group forward | 21:35 |
| jbicha | ok, how about a 12.04 release party? | 21:35 |
| Flare183 | jbicha: heh | 21:35 |
| Flare183 | You guys have to understand, I CAN'T go anywhere | 21:35 |
| Flare183 | unless its in clemson | 21:36 |
| Flare183 | otherwise, its not going to happen | 21:36 |
| Flare183 | I have no way to get anywhere unless its public transportation | 21:36 |
| Bryanstein | Flare183, that doesnt mean there can't be a release party scheduled | 21:37 |
| Flare183 | I don't understand. | 21:37 |
| Bryanstein | So you need to be there for there to be a release party? | 21:37 |
| Flare183 | I would think so. | 21:37 |
| jbicha | in fact, I'm heading to TechAfterFive in a few minutes to pass out some Ubuntu CDs | 21:37 |
| jbicha | http://www.techafterfive.com/ | 21:37 |
| Flare183 | Bryanstein: its not that, it annoys me that I can't be apart of this community personally. | 21:38 |
| Flare183 | If I could do so, I would be more invovled | 21:38 |
| Flare183 | I'm 21, and I'm the youngest team leader | 21:38 |
| Flare183 | And I don't want to just give up on this. | 21:38 |
| jbicha | Flare183: how difficult is it for you to get to Greenville? | 21:39 |
| Flare183 | jbicha: very hard, mainly due to the fact that I have to ask my parents for a ride up there | 21:39 |
| Flare183 | And you don't know my parents like I do | 21:39 |
| Flare183 | they won't take me | 21:39 |
| Flare183 | wait | 21:39 |
| Flare183 | jbicha: when? | 21:40 |
| Flare183 | I might actually be able to get my friend to take me if its on the weekend! | 21:40 |
| Flare183 | :O | 21:40 |
| jbicha | I got the CDs at TA5 idea from Weudel at the last meeting (I guess in October) | 21:40 |
| jbicha | Flare183: have you ever heard of IT-oLogy? | 21:40 |
| Flare183 | o_O | 21:41 |
| Flare183 | jbicha: no? | 21:41 |
| Flare183 | jbicha: What is it? lol | 21:42 |
| jbicha | ok I work with the http://www.open-it-lab.com/ which is a partner with http://it-ology.org/ | 21:42 |
| jbicha | (I really need to blog this) | 21:42 |
| jbicha | IT-oLogy is a non-profit here in Columbia that's working with companies and universities to grow the IT community | 21:42 |
| Flare183 | Alright how about this | 21:43 |
| Flare183 | I'm going to two things | 21:43 |
| jbicha | its current location & operation is about a year old, but they just opened a satellite campus at the University Center in Greenville | 21:43 |
| Flare183 | I'm going to spartunburg methodist this fall | 21:43 |
| Flare183 | to do * | 21:43 |
| jbicha | the Open IT Lab has been doing a couple workshops a month introduing open source to the community | 21:43 |
| Flare183 | that's one of them | 21:43 |
| Flare183 | I' | 21:43 |
| Flare183 | I'm going to schedule something in spartenburg | 21:43 |
| Flare183 | the second thing I'm thinking about doing is getting my friend Kevin to take me to greenville and we'll have a Ubuntu Hour | 21:44 |
| jbicha | I'm sure IT-oLogy in Greenville would love to work with you to do similar programs there | 21:44 |
| Flare183 | jbicha: I'll think about it | 21:44 |
| jbicha | I've not been to the space in Greenville yet, but they probably have space you could use | 21:44 |
| Flare183 | but as for what I just said | 21:44 |
| Flare183 | how does that sound? | 21:44 |
| Flare183 | wait | 21:44 |
| Flare183 | jbicha: are you saying we could use space for a Ubuntu hour? | 21:45 |
| Flare183 | or other stuff? | 21:45 |
| jbicha | we need to talk to the people there and see but probably | 21:45 |
| Flare183 | whoa | 21:45 |
| Flare183 | hold up then | 21:45 |
| jbicha | the Greenville part is very new, a month or two old | 21:45 |
| Flare183 | we might have something going then | 21:46 |
| Flare183 | otherwise I'll need to talk to my campus about events | 21:46 |
| Flare183 | trust me guys we'll get something going and I will be at it | 21:46 |
| Bryanstein | itology was at SELF last your btw | 21:46 |
| Flare183 | oh that's cool | 21:46 |
| jbicha | that's right | 21:46 |
| Bryanstein | Flare183, you dont need to be at the events to lead and organize them | 21:47 |
| Bryanstein | it's great if you are but even greater if you arent | 21:47 |
| Flare183 | Bryanstein: Alright then | 21:47 |
| jbicha | I think a big part of being an approved loco is doing the monthly reports | 21:47 |
| Flare183 | Then I need to appoint someone to lead it | 21:47 |
| jbicha | ask people what they're doing and encourage people to do more | 21:47 |
| Flare183 | jbicha: well I'll start doing that then | 21:47 |
| Flare183 | I'll get to work on that then :) | 21:48 |
| Flare183 | I'm going afk for a while | 21:48 |
| Flare183 | But I'll get to work on all this :) | 21:48 |
| jbicha | just let us know on the mailing list when you're ready for what's been going on in the past month or so | 21:49 |
| Flare183 | alright I will | 21:49 |
| jbicha | Flare183: thanks! | 21:49 |
| Flare183 | :) | 21:49 |
| jbicha | I'm going to head to TA5 now, talk to you more later | 21:49 |
| Flare183 | I'm glad that I can do this finally | 21:49 |
| Flare183 | alright :) | 21:49 |
| Flare183 | /away | 21:49 |
| Flare183 | /back | 22:02 |
