[09:04] <sagaci> anyone around for the meeting?
[09:05] <jea> I am here
[09:05] <jea> I thought it was at 9pm your time though
[09:05] <jea> not that we actually arranged it properly
[09:05] <jea> hello locodir-user 
[09:06] <sagaci> yeah, the change to dls is a pain
[09:06] <jea> if only people could agree on common time zones
[09:07] <locodir-user> hello jea, I guess I must be the locodir-user
[09:07] <jea> Is there actually anything on the agenda?
[09:07] <jea> locodir-user: yes, that is your nickname
[09:07] <jea> you can change it if you would like
[09:07] <locodir-user> yes, confirmed. :)
[09:07] <locodir-user> any release party in Sydney?
[09:07] <jea> type in: /nick newnickname
[09:08] <jea> I think sagaci said he wouldn't be organising one in Sydney this time due to being busy
[09:08] <jea> Brisbane is in a similar situation
[09:30] <jea> sagaci: I might be a bit late to the meeting, if it ends up happening
[09:32] <md_5> D:
[10:05] <Tibor> Hi all

[10:08] <head_victim> Evening all, sorry I'm a bit late.
[10:09] <jea> #chair head_victim, sagaci 
[10:09] <meetingology> Current chairs: head_victim jea sagaci
[10:09] <jea> Hi head_victim 
[10:09] <sagaci> hello
[10:09] <head_victim> Nice to see a few new faces
[10:09] <jea> There are no items on the agenda, so everyone can just suggest topics
[10:09] <jea> sagaci: I will leave the chairing to you
[10:10] <head_victim> I have a bit of a general update, I've ordered the team's allocation of 12.10 DVDs this week.
[10:10] <sagaci> Not really much to chair if there's nothing on the agenda
[10:10] <jea> true
[10:10] <jea> #topic Ubuntu 12.10
[10:10] <sagaci> head_victim, if I don't get any from UDS, I'd like 10 or so
[10:11] <jea> When is UDS?
[10:11] <head_victim> No worries, happy to send them out in bunches like we ahve the last few releases.
[10:11] <head_victim> I've only got one box left out of the 12.04 disks so we've done all right.
[10:11] <jea> How many are in a box?
[10:11] <head_victim> There's a bloke in northern NSW taking a few to markets and things doing well apparently.
[10:12] <head_victim> Around 50  or so from memory.
[10:12] <jea> That is good to hear
[10:12] <head_victim> Actually, might have been something like 75.
[10:13] <jea> All of the main translations were done for Quantal
[10:13] <head_victim> So if anyone has anything coming up they'd like some official pressed DVDs (now they're too big for CDs) just sing out 
[10:13] <jea> there are still quite a few to do, but I don't think any are too critical
[10:14] <head_victim> There have been HEAPS of freeze exceptions this release
[10:15] <md_5> present
[10:15] <jea> many more than ususal
[10:15] <jea> I hope the dev teams don't keep doing that for future releases
[10:16] <jea> Are there any plans for release parties? 
[10:16] <head_victim> md_5: saw the link you sent about the artwork, any plans to use it yet?
[10:16] <jea> I know Brisbane is most likely not happening this time
[10:16] <head_victim> I haven't heard of any unfortunately. I haven't been able to organise one in Brisbane but I was hoping someone else would step up.
[10:16] <jea> and Sydney probably not also
[10:17] <md_5> I dont plan to make any glamorous cds
[10:17] <md_5> In this last release cycle I gave about 4 stock standard ones away
[10:19] <head_victim> If anyone is involved in a LUG I'd suggest seeing if you can organise to make one of the regular meetings Ubuntu themed and hold that as a release party.
[10:19] <jea> I will get around to the localisation package after this semester has finished
[10:22] <jea> I also suggest we make a background image package that includes Australian images
[10:23] <jea> Has anyone set up a PPA before, especially under a team?
[10:23] <jea> If not, I will look into how to set it up
[10:23] <head_victim> Nah I've never got that involved with dev work sorry.
[10:24] <head_victim> It's always out there on the "to do list" somewhere.
[10:24] <head_victim> Feel free to use the main U-AU one or create a subteam if you'd prefer.
[10:25] <jea> Yeah, that is alright. I will see if I can get the main AU one to work
[10:25] <jea> won't be for  a couple of months
[10:28] <head_victim> No worries, just send an email to the list when it happens in case it accidentally causes some random LP emails
[10:28] <jea> oh, I forgot about that
[10:28] <head_victim> Might even rustle up some others wanting to help
[10:28] <jea> Yes, hopefully it will
[10:29] <head_victim> If you get stuck I'm sure there's a few friendly LP experts lurking around that may chime in
[10:31] <sagaci> jea, localisation is much a to-do before 14.0.4
[10:31] <sagaci> 04*
[10:32] <head_victim> Yep, would be nice to have a trial run or two to iron out bugs. Not sure what I can do to help but if you think of anything sing out.
[10:32] <jea> I think once the package is created, we can try installing it a few times
[10:33] <jea> I am hoping it can be installed after installation, as well as built into the cd installer
[10:33] <md_5> pretty sure there is no 'easy' way to customise the cd
[10:34] <head_victim> md_5: They have announced they'd like to work on some localisations as a community so I think they're going to be willing to help out a little to make it happen
[10:35] <jea> I'd say that is right. I think there is a way to include it though
[10:41] <head_victim> Anyone else have much they wanted to say? Feel free to speak up and intro yourself if you're not familiar
[10:45] <head_victim> Think we've come to a bit of a standstill.
[10:45] <md_5> *tumbleweed*
[10:46] <jea> If there is nothing else, I guess we may as well close the meeting
[10:46] <jea> We did fairly well for a meeting without an agenda

[10:47] <head_victim> Feel free to hang around and chat, I'm sorry but I should head off. I have an exam Tuesday night.
[10:48] <head_victim> Nothing like a last minute cram just to make sure.
[10:48] <jea> I know the feeling
[10:48] <jea> so much to do this week
[10:49] <head_victim> The beauty of these little 6 - 7 week teaching periods I have is that you can't ever really afford to procrastinate much, no matter how hard I try.
