| AlanBell | o/ | 18:03 |
| pleia2 | the rest of our blueprint items are covered in the other meeting topics, so we'll continue on to those unless there are any comments about these things :) | 18:03 |
| pleia2 | I also would like to mention that we haven't had a Full Circle Magazine article from the team in a few months, if anyone wants to help find people to interview or topics to cover, details about that can be found here: http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/FullCircleMagazine | 18:04 |
| pleia2 | #topic U-W Contest | 18:05 |
| pleia2 | Cheri703 and Pendulum: the floor is yours! | 18:05 |
| Cheri703 | Alright | 18:05 |
| Cheri703 | So, the basics are: We are going to do an online scavenger hunt! | 18:05 |
| Cheri703 | Current plan is to be 20 questions and set up a form so we can try to standardize responses. | 18:06 |
| Cheri703 | Contest will kick off on March 8th, International Women's Day, and run til March 18th, that way it gives folks one full week plus a weekend to work on it | 18:06 |
| pleia2 | what kinds of questions? | 18:06 |
| Cheri703 | We're hoping to get 2-3 more volunteers to help with the project, because we're hoping to have a variety of Ubuntu related and Women (/women in foss/women in tech/women something) related questions, and the thought is that if we have 4-5 people total (myself and Pendulum + others), then each person can be responsible for coming up with AND checking a set number of questions | 18:07 |
| Pendulum | It'll be a mix of questions about where to find specific info and fun ones (i.e. "Find an Ubuntu Forums member with 3 "z"s in their username") | 18:07 |
| pleia2 | cool | 18:08 |
| Cheri703 | If some questions have multiple answers, that's why it'll be easier to have person A responsible for questions 1-4, so all they need to worry about is those questions on all entries, then person B takes care of 5-9, etc | 18:08 |
| Cheri703 | no one has to confirm answers for ALL the questions | 18:09 |
| Deindre | nice | 18:09 |
| nigelb | sounds like fun | 18:09 |
| Cheri703 | As far as prizes, we'll take the people who have answered all questions correctly, then put them into a random drawing. We're still discussing how many prizes and exactly WHAT the prizes will be. | 18:10 |
| Cheri703 | BAM, you 3 indicated interest, you've volunteered! ;) j/k | 18:10 |
| pleia2 | Emma from System76 signed up for helping with prizes, and we can reach out to Ubuntu User again | 18:10 |
| Cheri703 | We are hoping to have the participation limited to women, but a. how do we try to enforce that, and b. I can only imagine the flood of "OMG UW IS SEXXXXXXIST" comments, so...we'll see | 18:11 |
| Cheri703 | Any thoughts on the topic are MORE than welcome | 18:11 |
| pleia2 | (and I'm already marked down as helping with this in the blueprint ;)) | 18:11 |
| Cheri703 | ok, awesome ;) | 18:11 |
| Cheri703 | Pendulum: did I miss anything? | 18:12 |
| Pendulum | We're hoping to have everything set to start the contest on March 8 (International Women's Day) | 18:12 |
| pleia2 | I suggest putting a call to the mailing list asking for volunteers, stressing that it's a great first thing to work on for someone looking to get involved with Ubuntu (so, don't be shy!) | 18:13 |
| Pendulum | The idea is to give them about 10 days so there are 2 weekends in there, but it's not too much time | 18:13 |
| Pendulum | them = participants | 18:13 |
| pleia2 | I think it's ok, and as with previous contests, we can extend it if needed | 18:14 |
| pleia2 | and maybe write a few teasers in the week leading up to it to build excitement? | 18:14 |
| Cheri703 | yeah, that leads us into the next topic actually | 18:15 |
| pleia2 | shall we move on? | 18:15 |
| Cheri703 | I think that covered everything | 18:15 |
| pleia2 | great, thanks for your work Cheri703 and Pendulum, this sounds great :) | 18:16 |
| pleia2 | #topic Career Days | 18:16 |
| Cheri703 | Our first career days of 2013 will be Laura Czajkowski on March 1 | 18:16 |
| Cheri703 | that's one week before the contest starts, so we can cross promote :D | 18:16 |
| Cheri703 | there are a bunch of people who volunteered at UDS and I will be reaching out to everyone to get sessions scheduled | 18:17 |
| Cheri703 | the time is still to be determined for the March 1 session, but that'll be on upcoming announcements | 18:17 |
| Cheri703 | aaaand that's all I have on that | 18:18 |
| pleia2 | thanks Cheri703 | 18:18 |
| pleia2 | #topic Any other business | 18:19 |
| pleia2 | anyone else have anything they wish to discuss or comment on? :) | 18:19 |
| pleia2 | Ubuntu Developer Summit (UDS) sponsorship hasn't opened yet, but we'll be mailing list list once it does, it's in Oakland again, May 6-9: http://uds.ubuntu.com/ | 18:19 |
| pleia2 | I don't think any of the leadership team will be attending :( | 18:20 |
| Cheri703 | awesome :D | 18:20 |
| Cheri703 | I might be able to! if I get sponsored! | 18:20 |
| pleia2 | that would be good! | 18:20 |
| Cheri703 | I am pushing my move back to June, so...possible | 18:20 |
| pleia2 | I'll be out of reach on my honeymoon, so I won't even be able to participate remotely | 18:21 |
| Cheri703 | pfft, you can take a break from honeymoon for ONE UW session ;) | 18:21 |
| Cheri703 | COME ON PLEIA2 WHERE IS YOUR COMMITMENT?! | 18:21 |
| Cheri703 | hehe | 18:22 |
| Deindre | honeymoon is ONE in a lifetime! take a break from UW and enjoy Honeymoon :P | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 18:22 |
| Cheri703 | alright, I have nothing else productive to contribute :) | 18:23 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 18:23 |
| pleia2 | ok, I think that pretty much wraps things up then | 18:23 |
| pleia2 | sounds like we're on track with everything! | 18:24 |
| pleia2 | thanks everyone :) | 18:24 |
