| BobJonkman | I'm Bob Jonkman, out for dinner wit | 00:03 |
| KombuchaKip | dscassel: What can we do for you? | 00:03 |
| dscassel | Feel free to introduce yourself. Who are you, where are you and what do you do on/for/with Ubuntu? | 00:03 |
| dscassel | KombuchaKip: Monthly IRC meeting. :) | 00:03 |
| dscassel | Agenda here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2012-05-08 | 00:04 |
| BobJonkman | with my in-laws. Will be mostly observing | 00:04 |
| dscassel | I'm Darcy in Waterloo (well, Kitchener at the moment) | 00:05 |
| dscassel | and I'm loCo contact for Ubuntu canada. | 00:05 |
| mimcpher | I'm Matthew McPherrin, and I run an ubuntu mirror / free software stuff as part of the Waterloo Computer Science Club | 00:05 |
| dscassel | Woo! Calum T Dalek, represent! | 00:05 |
| BobJonkman | out for dinner with inlaws | 00:05 |
| BobJonkman | will be observing, not chatting | 00:06 |
| bregma | hi, I'm Stephen Webb, I'm at UDS right now nor Oakland, CA but normally located up the Ottawa Valley | 00:06 |
| KombuchaKip | My name's Kip. I'm project lead behind Avaneya, a free, commercial, cerebral science fiction game for GNU. (https://www.avaneya.com) | 00:07 |
| DarwinSurvivor | I'm Doug I'm a brainstorm moderator and have recently started helping in #ubuntu. | 00:08 |
| txwikinger | dscassel: UDS is ongoing :-) | 00:08 |
| dscassel | bregma: How's UDS? :) ANything exciting? | 00:08 |
| bregma | lots of server-side stuff, not my main area of interest | 00:08 |
| dscassel | txwikinger: Yeah, I've been dropping in and out of sessions. (mostly community, but some desktop) | 00:08 |
| txwikinger | dscassel There is a Kubuntu Active Plasma session scheduled now | 00:09 |
| dscassel | bregma: I hear ya. The big reveal in the keynote was a server with a lot of cores or something. Which is cool, I guess. | 00:10 |
| bregma | I think the desktop focus for Quantal is going to be refining the theming and styling | 00:10 |
| bregma | the "cool" multi-core server was an ARM-based server, I think, so it uses less power | 00:11 |
| bregma | if you need a render farm in your living room or something | 00:12 |
| dscassel | bregma: I'll be interested to see what happens with the HUD... | 00:14 |
| dscassel | Anyway, I should probably get on with the meeting. | 00:14 |
| dscassel | Upcoming events! | 00:14 |
| dscassel | As always, watch http://loco.ubuntu.com/ | 00:14 |
| dscassel | Er, watch http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-ca | 00:15 |
| dscassel | Anyone from Ubuntu Quebec here? | 00:15 |
| dscassel | I had an awesome release party. Photos here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ubuntucanada/ | 00:16 |
| BobJonkman | lag lag lag on this phone | 00:17 |
| dscassel | genii-around says turnout was down in Toronto, but he didn't have time to promote. Still, parties are always good. | 00:17 |
| dscassel | BobJonkman: What are you using for a client? | 00:18 |
| BobJonkman | Yay for dscassel's parties! | 00:18 |
| * BobJonkman is using yaaic on phone .. | 00:19 | |
| txwikinger | Any plans for multi-cultural festival? | 00:19 |
| dscassel | On the mailing list, rrnwexec suggested hosting parties divorced to release (computers are banned), focusing on bringing in new people. | 00:20 |
| dscassel | txwikinger: Not from me. Interested in doing something? :) | 00:20 |
| txwikinger | Have to see.. very busy | 00:20 |
| dscassel | txwikinger: I can relate. :) | 00:20 |
| txwikinger | Nobody stops anybody from having any parties | 00:20 |
| txwikinger | So I am not really sure what that has to do with Ubuntu | 00:21 |
| dscassel | txwikinger: I wouldn't know how to run something like that successfully. Not without a lot of work (which I don't have time for) or help. | 00:21 |
| dscassel | I don't tend to go to those sort of parties. :) | 00:22 |
| txwikinger | Well.. I would like to know how many people use Ubuntu after such a party | 00:22 |
| txwikinger | I do not have any problems with such parties... I just think it has nothing to do with Ubuntu | 00:22 |
| txwikinger | I mean.. I go to Entrepreneurs meetings and do not use my computer there... but I do not do that as part of the Ubuntu LoCo | 00:23 |
| txwikinger | That does not preclude that I meet people and sometime in the future I invite them to an Ubuntu event | 00:24 |
| txwikinger | So.. all power to you, but what does it has to do with Ubuntu? | 00:24 |
| dscassel | There's something to be said for community-building. I can see that. I just don't know how what Randall's proposing would work. Like, what do you *do*? | 00:24 |
| txwikinger | Well.. also.. what is the success criteria | 00:25 |
| txwikinger | Does he track the increase of Ubuntu users? | 00:25 |
| dscassel | Dunno. | 00:25 |
| txwikinger | If we do an install fest or a release party.. we give support so we have a success criteria | 00:26 |
| dscassel | BobJonkman: Who's "Ade" (our team reports reporter) | 00:26 |
| dscassel | txwikinger: And cake! | 00:27 |
| txwikinger | Yeah! | 00:27 |
| dscassel | I'd love to set up a booth at the multi-cultural fest, but I'm running a bit ragged lately. | 00:28 |
| dscassel | When is it, anyway? | 00:28 |
| txwikinger | No idea | 00:28 |
| txwikinger | I always forget until it is happening | 00:28 |
| dscassel | http://www.kwmc.on.ca/html/festival.html | 00:29 |
| txwikinger | 23/24 June | 00:29 |
| dscassel | My parents are visiting that weekend. :/ Also my birthday party... | 00:29 |
| txwikinger | Hey.. a party :-) | 00:30 |
| DarwinSurvivor | so the party's at dscassel's? :D | 00:30 |
| txwikinger | but the food is better at the festival | 00:31 |
| dscassel | Sure! | 00:31 |
| dscassel | txwikinger: Any update on the website? I haven't thought about it for a while. | 00:34 |
| dscassel | Didn't even update it for the release. :/ | 00:34 |
| txwikinger | Nope. | 00:34 |
| dscassel | We're still waiting on a theme for Drupal 7, right? | 00:34 |
| txwikinger | people seem only ask for permissions and otherwise disappear | 00:34 |
| txwikinger | yes.. | 00:34 |
| dscassel | Hm. | 00:36 |
| dscassel | I'd say we should do something about that, but I know I'm not going to do anything about it. :) | 00:38 |
| txwikinger | hehe | 00:38 |
| dscassel | There's also team reports, which we should also do something about. | 00:42 |
| dscassel | I'll probably get to that. In that I'll write a script which pulls events from the LoCo directory. | 00:42 |
| dscassel | But it would be awesome if someone maintained them. | 00:43 |
| * dscassel hears crickets. | 00:43 | |
| * bregma watches a tumbleweed roll by | 00:44 | |
| BobJonkman | lag? | 00:44 |
| * bregma see a potential volunteer | 00:44 | |
| BobJonkman | there's Ade, who was volunteered by Chaslinux last month | 00:46 |
| txwikinger | BobJonkman: How do you get a table at Multi-cultural festival? | 00:46 |
| BobJonkman | Don't know. | 00:47 |
| BobJonkman | Anita did that for Fair Vote... | 00:47 |
| txwikinger | Could you find out from Anita? | 00:48 |
| BobJonkman | OK | 00:49 |
| dscassel | Woo! | 00:50 |
| dscassel | BobJonkman: I would like to meet this Ade person. :) | 00:50 |
| BobJonkman | I'll invite hi | 00:51 |
| BobJonkman | him to the next Ubuntu Hour | 00:51 |
| BobJonkman | Again | 00:51 |
| dscassel | BobJonkman: Cool. | 00:54 |
| dscassel | BobJonkman: The next Kitchener hour isn't in the LoCo portal. Just sayin. :) | 00:55 |
| BobJonkman | will fix shortly | 00:55 |
| BobJonkman | Currently ignoring family at dinner | 00:56 |
| dscassel | Thanks, Bob! :) | 00:57 |
| dscassel | Anthing else anyone wants to talk about? | 00:57 |
| txwikinger | Nothing I can share at this time :-) | 00:58 |
| dscassel | Okay! | 00:59 |
| dscassel | Thanks, folks! | 00:59 |
| dscassel | BTW! UDS! http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-q/ | 01:00 |
| dscassel | It's now easier to find and listen in on sessions. | 01:00 |

| BobJonkman | The agenda for the next IRC meeting at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2012-06-12 could use some grooming | 02:26 |
| * BobJonkman hasn't done a Minutes summary for March, April or May. | 02:26 | |
| * BobJonkman is feeling mighty guilty, seeing as how he volunteered for that job | 02:27 | |
| * BobJonkman would really like to enlist the meetingology bot and make *him* do the minutes! | 02:28 | |
