snap-lThank you to everyone who helped out with the OLF booth01:04
waldo323namely raig01:04
waldo323craig01:04
snap-lIt was pretty awesome to have some folks from the Comic Convention drop on by either to get CDs, or to just ask questions01:05
snap-las well as other folks who didn't know about the various locos.01:05
snap-lwaldo323: You helped out as well01:05
snap-ldon't be shy. :)01:05
snap-lWe gave out a lot of discs, and I think people were genuinely happy to talk and learn more about Ubuntu01:06
waldo323and there was good interaction between the locos from what I observed01:06
snap-lYeah, it was pretty nice01:07
snap-lAnd the new Distro Watch video podcast interviewed me about the booth01:07
snap-lHopefully I didn't come off like an ass. :)01:07
waldo323is there a link for it yet?01:08
snap-lNoy yet.01:08
snap-lAnywhol, really appreciate those who supported the effort.01:08
snap-lI know the number of Michgan folks down at OLF this time around could be counted on two hands, but it was nice to get some involvement.01:09
snap-l(And by counted on two hands, I mean without using bindary.)01:09
snap-lbinary, either01:09
snap-lSo, Any questions about OLF?01:10

rick_h_droidparty01:11
snap-lAnd, as is customary, it's time to plan out a release party.01:11
snap-lIN previous iterations, we've had them at the Liberty Street Brewery01:12
waldo323how well does that work for everyone?01:12
snap-lI'm OK with it, but usually smoser sets it up.01:13
snap-lWe tend to get an interesting crowd over there.01:13
snap-lOther thought I had was trying for the Royal Oak Brewery.01:13
snap-lOnly problem is parking01:14
snap-lIf someone would like to take the ball and plan this out, that would be awesome.01:15

waldo323i would prefer saturday but may not be able to make it even then :-\01:17
snap-lwell, I can also post this to the list to see if someone would be interested in spearheading it.01:17
snap-lFrankly, I don't have it in me to plan this at the moment.01:18
waldo323sending it to the list sounds like a good idea01:18
snap-lOK I'll post i to the list to ask if someone will spearhead this.01:20
snap-lAny questions?01:20
snap-lNot sure if the west side is planning something, or what.01:20
