[00:00] Good evening [00:02] This is our first meeting of the year and there are some pretty exciting things in the Ubuntu world that have come to light in the last month [00:03] First, though, anyone lurking feel free to introduce yourself. === RBecker is now known as rbecker [00:05] If we get more people in here I would like to discuss the direction of this group, but for now, I'll briefly go over the Ubuntu Phone... [00:06] Last year, Canonical announced the Ubuntu for Android project, which would work as an Android overlay in phone mode, but allow a full desktop experience when docked. [00:07] Ubuntu for Android is supposed to be ready for testing early this year, and I hope to be one of the ones using it. [00:08] Earlier this month, Canonical announced the further direction of that project, which will be a standalone Ubuntu phone OS. [00:09] From the intro videos it looks pretty compelling, and should be aimed at developing markets, as well as us enthusiasts. [00:10] At this point does anyone have questions or anything to add? [00:12] Okay, the 13.04 release is right around the corner, and there are new features being unveiled all the time. [00:13] for updates, check omgubuntu [00:15] If anyone has any ideas for reaching other members of our community or better venues for these meetings, please let me know. [00:18] I'll continue to post on Facebook and Google+ to try to get solid meetings going. I'll try again in a couple weeks.
