[20:08] <tdr112> prsemt
[20:08] <ebel> the agenda for this meeting is here http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-ie/382/detail/
[20:08] <ebel> #link http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-ie/382/detail/
[20:09] <ebel> there isn't really much on agenda, bar new release stuff
[20:09] <ebel> so first topic is "review"
[20:09] <ebel> which is just about release party, i'll move that around
[20:09] <ebel> and move to
[20:10] <ebel> #topic CDs for new release
[20:10] <ebel> I just remembered about that now.
[20:10] <ebel> I haven't ordered them yet for our loco
[20:10] <ebel> I'll do that this evening (after meeting)
[20:11] <ebel> then we'll get ~250 professionally pressed CDs of the new release from canonical
[20:11] <airurando> action yourself ;)
[20:11] <mokmeister> What's the story there? I thought the ISO was 750MB or so? DVD rather CD methinks
[20:11] <ebel> #action ebel to order cds this evening
[20:11] <meetingology> ACTION: ebel to order cds this evening
[20:11] <Victor9098> I saw that the store has them for individual purchase to (5 for £5) Its a CD sized iso
[20:11] <mokmeister> ok
[20:11] <ebel> mokmeister: not sure. but I do recall there being an order page for this release, so presume there is *some* discs
[20:12] <ebel> (when i say CD I mean 'optical disk' which might include DVD :) )
[20:12] <Victor9098> ;)
[20:12] <mokmeister> :)
[20:13] <ebel> any Questionss on CDs?
[20:13] <tdr112> nope
[20:13] <mokmeister> not any more! ;)
[20:13] <airurando> no
[20:14] <imgarysmith> I was supposed to get cds on the last round and never did
[20:14] <zmoylan> no, don't even have an optical drive at the mo
[20:14] <imgarysmith> for my college
[20:14] <ebel> related to that we need to talk about distribution, but I wanna get onto the release party since we have more concrete ideas
[20:14] <ebel> imgarysmith: ah yes, you never got back to me after XMas
[20:15] <airurando> imgarysmith: you need to keep prodding ebel to get results
[20:15] <ebel> Sorry for any mix-up
[20:15] <imgarysmith> i emailed a few times
[20:16] <imgarysmith> are there any more laying around, networking lecturer needs a few
[20:16] <ebel> I sent lots of emails to lots of people about CDs and didn't get replies from lots of people, the interest seemed much lower this round
[20:16] <ebel> No more CDs left… (threw the last few in the bin ~2 weeks ago)
[20:17] <ebel> hmmm.... I don't have any emails after 20th December 2011 from you imgarysmith...
[20:17] <airurando> I think 12.04 will be alot more appealing
[20:18] <andru183> hey guys, did I miss the meeting?
[20:18] <ebel> andru183: no, still going on
[20:18] <imgarysmith> oh okay, ill just wait a few weeks
[20:18] <imgarysmith> hey andru
[20:18] <ebel> imgarysmith: sorry for any mix up, i'll be sure to set some aside for you this time.
[20:18] <mokmeister> lts is always more appealing really
[20:18] <andru183> huzzar, then hello all
[20:18] <mokmeister> hi andru183
[20:18] <ebel> so, release party
[20:18] <ebel> #topic 12.04 release party
[20:19] <airurando> hi andru183
[20:19] <andru183> hi airurando, didn't know this was on
[20:19] <airurando> not many suggestions from the mailing list
[20:19] <ebel> there's been a few emails on the mailing list w.r.t. release party.
[20:20] <mokmeister> My son's communion is on the 28th, so I'll be doing a joint celebration! :)
[20:21] <Victor9098> There are too many suggestions ;)
[20:21] <Victor9098> The April 29th option of meeting on the Sunday, would that net the most people?
[20:21] <tdr112> i think if its an evening meetup it has to be onnthe sat
[20:21] <ebel> tdr112: agreed
[20:22] <ebel> w/end of apr 28/29 was prefered date.
[20:22] <airurando> I have a pref for the Sat evening also
[20:22] <slashtommy> i like airurando's idea of a pub meet in town
[20:22] <ebel> location is either (a) pub (no food), (b) geeknic in dun laoghaire
[20:22] <zmoylan> sat the pubs would be more busy?
[20:23] <tdr112> save the geeknic for the summer
[20:23] <slashtommy> not all, avoid places with a DJ or lots of tourists
[20:23] <ebel> How about we go for the idea of pub meet on Sat. 28th April?
[20:23] <Victor9098> tdr112: +1
[20:23] <slashtommy> aye
[20:23] <ebel> which is Saturday Week
[20:23] <airurando> yip
[20:23] <ebel> right, pub suggestions?
[20:24] <airurando> lots of pub suggestions at last meeting
[20:24] <slashtommy> brewdock?
[20:24] <mokmeister> Costellos ;)
[20:24] <slashtommy> or black sheep
[20:24] <tdr112> bull and castle
[20:24] <slashtommy> on capel street
[20:24]  * ebel really should look at minutes/logs before a meeting
[20:24] <slashtommy> bull and castle have a DJ at weekends
[20:25] <slashtommy> where is costellos?
[20:25] <mokmeister> Limerick. ;)
[20:25] <tdr112> how about put all of these in a poll and end the poll on friday night
[20:25] <slashtommy> the black sheep on capel street, has craft beer, no DJ, no loud music
[20:25] <ebel> ok, we'll do dublin release party first, then limerick
[20:25] <zmoylan> sounds optimal
[20:26] <ebel> tdr112: ok
[20:26] <ebel> i'll set that up and email list with results
[20:26] <airurando> I say skip the poll and decide now
[20:26] <airurando> just 2 weeks to got
[20:26] <slashtommy> yes
[20:26] <zmoylan> saves time
[20:26] <airurando> time is short

[20:30] <airurando> yay!
[20:30] <slashtommy> next to republican sinn fein
[20:30] <ebel> mokmeister: so there'll be a limerick release party?
[20:30] <andru183> I was going to pass the idea around skynet but forgot
[20:31] <airurando> mokmeister andru183 do tell!
[20:31] <mokmeister> I don't know really
[20:31] <andru183> airurando I didn't say it to em, I forgot to
[20:31] <mokmeister> Like I said, the young fella's communion is on that ,so I'll be pretty tied up.
[20:31] <mokmeister> *day*
[20:31] <andru183> I can't do that weekend for a release party, have a wedding and the design jam
[20:32] <mokmeister> might be available in the evening, we'll see.
[20:32] <airurando> aye mokmeister
[20:32] <airurando> mokmeister if I was you I'd stay put
[20:33] <mokmeister> My son will end up in Counselling in years to come if I abandon him on his communion.... ;)
[20:33] <airurando> :)
[20:33] <ebel> feel free to send emails around, tweets etc. if you wanna let people know
[20:33] <zmoylan> whereas the traditional method is to completely embarrass them :-)
[20:33] <ebel> (If you're doing anything)]
[20:34] <mokmeister> lol
[20:34] <Victor9098> As soon as the event details page is up we can share it around
[20:34] <airurando> ebel I'll set it up on the LTP
[20:34] <ebel> airurando: cool
[20:34] <ebel> #agreed 8pm black sheep, capel st. Dublin Ubuntu 12.04 release party
[20:35] <airurando> cool
[20:35] <ebel> #agreed maaaaaybe limerick release party
[20:35] <zmoylan> on sa tapr 28
[20:35] <zmoylan> *sat
[20:35] <airurando> what kind of place is it?
[20:35] <ebel> airurando: craft beer pub
[20:35] <mokmeister> yum
[20:35] <zmoylan> tweeting now...
[20:35] <ebel> releated to that
[20:36] <slashtommy> with no dj or loud music
[20:36] <ebel> #topic CD distribution
[20:36] <ebel> When we get CDs we should give them around
[20:36] <ebel> we've had mixed succeass
[20:36] <slashtommy> and no TV's
[20:36] <airurando> slashtommy sounds great
[20:36]  * slashtommy will not need the TV-B-Gone
[20:36] <ebel> I'll send an email around to the mailing list to see who 'comes out of the woodwork' and wants CDs
[20:37] <airurando> I consider the next lot of
[20:37] <airurando> CDs special
[20:37] <tdr112> lts
[20:37] <ebel> previously I've posted them out.
[20:37] <airurando> these LTS releases are what we should be promoting to the general populus
[20:37] <ebel> uptake was low last time (and I was delayed getting back to people)
[20:37] <tdr112> costs ebel too much
[20:38] <ebel> so: Ideas for CD distribution…. go!
[20:38] <mokmeister> I agree with airurando, lts' are where it's at really
[20:38] <airurando> I don't think we have to distribute them all in 6 months
[20:38] <mokmeister> especially with this one, support for 5 years and all
[20:38] <czajkowski> how about people mail you a self addressed envelope
[20:38] <slashtommy> ubuntu hour after we receive them
[20:38] <czajkowski> and you can then post it to them
[20:38] <czajkowski> that works for lots of teams
[20:38] <airurando> these should be promoted as stable LTS
[20:39] <slashtommy> many people will be able to collect
[20:39] <ebel> czajkowski: good idea
[20:40] <ebel> think I requested SAEs from people last time and didn't hear anything in some cases ☹
[20:40] <airurando> highlight the 'stable' 'LTS' attributes in the mails
[20:40] <ebel> but I'll try it again
[20:40] <andru183> postings works for me too and I'm not up in Dublin often
[20:41] <mokmeister> I'm up in Dublin the last Wednesday of every month (mostly) so I could always collect them and bring them down to Limerick?
[20:41] <Victor9098> What about just passing out a few to those who come along to the Ubuntu Hour's and then let them pass on to those they know/think are interested. Can always 'hit-up' for more in the future?
[20:41] <ebel> So we can take our time with how to decide how and when to send out CDs
[20:41] <ebel> Victor9098: yep that's what we sometimes do
[20:41] <ebel> mokmeister: cool!
[20:42] <airurando> ebel I think so
[20:42] <andru183> mokmeister that could work too
[20:42] <mokmeister> cool
[20:43] <ebel> So I'll send emails to mailing list to see what people say, who wants CDs etc.
[20:43] <tdr112> cool
[20:43] <Victor9098> Either way I know I am going to be gettign texts for about a dozen family and friends on the 26th about a big 'upgrade' notice on their screens :D
[20:43] <mokmeister> sounds good
[20:44] <ebel> cool
[20:45] <mokmeister> would you get the upgrade notice if you were on 10.04? I think you would
[20:46] <Victor9098> You should since its an LTS
[20:46] <mokmeister> indeed
[20:47] <ebel> #topic Any Other Business?
[20:47] <andru183> just an update on the new site
[20:48] <airurando> limerick happy hour?
