| * OutOfControl has probably missed the meeting. | 09:47 | |
| head_victim | No, by my reckoning it should be in 10 minutes or so | 09:48 |
| OutOfControl | O.o Ah, time zones has messed me up... | 09:49 |

| head_victim | Evening all | 10:03 |
| jea | Agenda http://loco.ubuntu.com/meetings/ubuntu-au/396/detail/ | 10:03 |
| ben0nsoftware | Evening. | 10:03 |
| jea | Hi everyone | 10:03 |
| jea | Not too much on the agenda tonight | 10:04 |
| head_victim | Nope, not much at all | 10:05 |
| jea | #topic Review of past meetings | 10:05 |
| jea | The main topics have been to do with customisation for Australia | 10:06 |
| jea | In September we discussed modifying the installer slideshow | 10:06 |
| jea | I don't think we have done anything towards this yet, but I will have more time to investigate after this week is over | 10:08 |
| md_5 | hey | 10:08 |
| jea | Hi md_5 | 10:08 |
| head_victim | I'm not sure but I thought sagaci was attending a meeting at UDS about it | 10:08 |
| head_victim | Evening md_5 | 10:08 |
| head_victim | I've had a few requests for the DVDs so they've been shipped, if anyone else have any other ideas for distribution let me know | 10:12 |
| jea | In October we discussed briefly the localisation package, which is something else to aim to finish soon | 10:12 |
| jea | #topic Revitalising Ubuntu-AU | 10:13 |
| jea | I think we need to come up with a plan to get more people involved, and run more events | 10:13 |
| jea | Reapproval is in 2013 (I think), so we need to get moving to ensure we can be approved again | 10:14 |
| * ben0nsoftware nods. | 10:14 | |
| head_victim | For mine, people need to understand the events don't have to start out as more than 2 or 3 people getting together on a semi regularl basis | 10:14 |
| md_5 | yeah, thats going to be scary | 10:14 |
| jea | I listened to the Loco session at UDS-R, which sagaci attended in person | 10:15 |
| jea | Some of the american teams were saying how they had regular meetings, which were sponsored by various industry people | 10:16 |
| jea | I think that could be harder in Australia, but might be something to look into | 10:16 |
| jea | Certainly the Market Day that head_victim ran was quite successful, so maybe another of these would be good | 10:16 |
| head_victim | jea: my understanding is the sponsorship was just about a place to be with maybe some refreshments | 10:18 |
| jea | Yes, that is what it sounded like | 10:19 |
| head_victim | So for example someone's boss letting them use a boardroom as a meeting area, a local coffee shop allowing use of wifi and some coffee, that sort of thign | 10:19 |
| head_victim | Just clarifying in case some people thought it meant full on contracts and large overheads | 10:19 |
| jea | good idea. probably should have done that | 10:19 |
| head_victim | For example, the Brisbane City Council Library sponsored us a place to hold our installfest and blahdeblah's company sponsored the refreshments. It was by no means large amounts of formality | 10:20 |
| head_victim | It just meant that attendees could come along, get a cup of coffee and a cake and didn't have to pay anythign. | 10:21 |
| jea | That is all you really need for an event like that | 10:21 |
| head_victim | Canonical chip in with merchandise to give away and raffle off like we did | 10:21 |
| jea | When is Linux Conf? | 10:22 |
| jea | and where is it this time? | 10:22 |
| head_victim | January, I believe it's in Canberra | 10:22 |
| jea | Is there anyone in Ubuntu-AU who will be going to that? | 10:24 |
| jea | That is always a good place to hold a booth | 10:25 |
| head_victim | Not sure, I'll not be there due to funding and study commitments | 10:25 |
| head_victim | There is going to be an open day apparently - http://linux.conf.au/programme/saturday | 10:25 |
| jea | I also won't be there | 10:26 |
| head_victim | If some people were willing to put their hands up to run a stand there I"d be willing to post down the posters we used up here but also if I get enough notice I can organise a conference pack from Canonical | 10:27 |
| jea | I will definitely be holding a linux related session through the UQ Computing Society in Semester 2 next year (or end of Semester 1) | 10:27 |
| jea | to coincide with a linux based subject | 10:27 |
| head_victim | jea: give us all some notice and we can probably organise some help :) | 10:28 |
| jea | Yep, I will do that | 10:28 |
| jea | Hello simplechat_ | 10:29 |
| jea | Well, I plan on finishing much of the localisation stuff over the next couple of months, so we can use it for 13.04 | 10:35 |
| jea | maybe we could also make a 12.04 localised version, seeing as it is LTS | 10:35 |
| head_victim | Use 13.04 and 13.10 as a test for the next LTS | 10:40 |
| jea | that sounds like a good idea | 10:41 |
| head_victim | I'm assuming the next LTS is 14.04 | 10:41 |
| jea | I would say so | 10:42 |
| jea | sagaci mentioned it as LTS, but I haven't checked | 10:42 |
| head_victim | So we seem to be at a standstill,a nyone else have anything to mention? | 10:55 |
| jea | I don't have anything else | 10:56 |
| jea | I think we may as well end the meeting | 10:57 |
| head_victim | Sounds good, thanks to those who popped in. | 10:57 |
| jea | The next meeting will be on December 9 | 10:57 |
| jea | See you all then | 10:58 |

| head_victim | jea: thanks for organising and running the meeting | 10:58 |
| jea | that is alright | 10:58 |
| jea | hopefully we will pick up a bit more in the coming months | 10:58 |
| head_victim | Even just making sure we have them means there is an outlet for new people to come along | 10:58 |
| jea | Yes, I think so | 10:59 |
| jea | I will try to revitalise the wiki, make it a bit easier to understand | 10:59 |
| jea | and also see if the website can be improved (I haven't looked for a while) | 10:59 |
| head_victim | Go for it, the main component missing on the website is content. | 11:00 |
| jea | true | 11:00 |
