BobJonkman1Meeting!  Agenda & such at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2012-11-2200:05
BobJonkman1dscassel_ is somewhat incapacitated, and will be joining us via phone tonight00:05
BobJonkman1The incapacitation stems from a new SSD in his netbook which has borked the BIOS00:06
BobJonkman1That's a technical term...00:06
BobJonkman1Also, dscassel_ has gone to get a Poutine Schawarma for sustenance.  It's great having an IRC meeting IRL just before an Ubuntu Hour00:07
willwh:)00:08
BobJonkman1So, introductions?00:08
willwhI'm just leaving the office - got to go to the doc :/00:08

BobJonkman1I'm Bob Jonkman from Elmira, slightly north of Waterloo, Ontario, but currently at Almadina's restaurant in Waterloo00:08
BobJonkman1OK, enjoy what you can, willwh00:08

genii-aroundBobJonkman1: We had about 10-12 people altogether wander through, 6 who stayed all night00:11
BobJonkman1And cupcakes!00:12
genii-aroundHehe, yes00:12
dscasselBobJonkman1: you don't mind chairing, do you?00:12
genii-aroundSorry, back and forth from working here, may not be too talktative00:13
BobJonkman1dscassel: Not at all.  Have keyboard, will chair00:13
dscasselI'm on my phone for the duration. Hardware issues.00:13
BobJonkman1It was an exciting week back in October.  TO Release Party, UbuntuOpenWeek, FSOSS, UDS...00:14
BobJonkman1Anybody go to UDS?  IRL or virtually?00:14
dscasselI was to busy with work this time.00:14
BobJonkman1I didn't make it to any online stuff either00:16
BobJonkman1I talked to Raul Suarez, who had nice thing to say about FSOSS00:16
BobJonkman1dscassel tells me Randall from the Vancouver LoCo went to UDS, proposed having LoCo teams blog about awesome LoCo stuff00:17
BobJonkman1dscassel didn't think that got too much traction00:19
BobJonkman1Tuesday was UCADay: http://ucaday.org00:20
BobJonkman1Belated ThankYous to everyone here.  You all help make the Ubuntu-ca community00:20
BobJonkman1Hmm..  ucday.org seems to be unresponsive.  There's always https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UCADay00:20
BobJonkman1And on the agenda there's the question of the next meeting day.00:20
BobJonkman1If we stick to the fourth Thursday, the next meeting would be on 27 December.  How's that fit with everyone's holiday schedules?00:21
genii-aroundI'll be in Sarnia with family, probably won't make it00:22
azend:O00:24
BobJonkman1I guess it meets with approval...00:24
azendWorks for me00:25
BobJonkman1Would it be better earlier in the month?00:25
azendDoesn't matter to me00:25
dscasselWe could just ship December..00:26
dscasselEr, skip00:26
BobJonkman1Here in Waterloo we've been syncing the Ubuntu Hour Waterloo with the IRC meeting00:26
BobJonkman1Would we skip Ubuntu Hour too?00:26
dscasselI think I'll be driving back to kw on the 27th00:27
BobJonkman1OK, I propose moving it to the 13th of December, 7:00pm for the IRC meeting, 8:00pm for Ubuntu Hour Waterloo00:30
dscasselI'm free the 13th..00:30
genii-aroundSounds good00:32
dscasselWe're agreed!00:32
BobJonkman1Yay!  I'll work on updating calendars and such00:32
BobJonkman1next...00:33
BobJonkman1LoCo renewal...00:34
BobJonkman1dscassel says he hasn't been approached about renewal yet, but we should probably start working on it00:34
dscasselI haven't heard anything.00:34
BobJonkman1I've been trying to keep the Team Reports up-to-date: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/TeamReports/00:35
dscasselThey just did Asturia. They may be going alphabetically00:35
dscasselThanks, Bob!00:36
BobJonkman1I don't know if it makes a difference, but I'd like to encourage people to register for LoCo events at http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-ca00:37
dscasselWe'll need to do a reapproval page. I'll get on that in December, even if we don't hear from them.00:37
dscasselI've been a teensy bit swamped, so I may ask for help.00:37
BobJonkman1Like today's IRC meeting, f'rinstance http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-ca/2066/detail/00:37
BobJonkman1We get enough people coming out to events, but there's no indication of that on the LoCo events page.00:38
BobJonkman1I may be able to lend a hand.00:38
dscasselWe've got photos. They like photos.00:38
BobJonkman1There's some LoCo renewal resources on the Canadian Team page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/ReApprovalApplication2010 and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/ApprovalApplication00:40
dscasselAnd yes, we should probably update the web page too.00:41
dscasselSegue!00:42
BobJonkman1dscassel was proposing a Web Site Upgrade Party00:42
dscassel"promising" is perhaps to seeing a term.00:42
dscasselS/seeing/strong/00:43
BobJonkman1A nice up-to-date Web page wouldn't hurt our chances at renewal00:44
dscasselI'll mention it to  txwikinger.00:44
dscasselA web page update blitz is a good idea. I just need to carve out a time.00:46
dscasselAnything else?00:49
BobJonkman1Make sure to invite txwikinger to the Web Site Update Party; he has the keys to the castle00:50
BobJonkman1Well, that seems to be about it for today00:58
BobJonkman1When dscassel carves some time I'll put something about a Web Site Update Party on the LoCo calendar.00:59
dscasselSure00:59
BobJonkman1I expect it will be an online collaborative event.  But maybe with an In-Real-Life component, perhaps at a local hacker space or something like that :-p01:00
dscasselIf you don't mind the cold, sure!01:01
BobJonkman1OK, thanx everbodee!01:02
dscasselWoo! Ubuntu hour!01:02
BobJonkman1Another seque01:03
BobJonkman1segue.  Fingers don't work too well01:03
BobJonkman1going AFK and offline01:04
