snap-lGoing to get the meeting started in 2 minutes00:58
snap-lEvening, everyone.01:00
snap-lWelcome to the May Ubuntu Michigan Meeting01:00
snap-lI completely forgot to set an agenda for this meeting. :)01:00
snap-lBut there's also little to cover01:00
snap-lSo ley01:00
snap-lSo, let's get started.01:01
snap-lWho all is on the line?01:01
snap-lFeel free to ping as we go along.01:01
snap-lFirst order of business: 13.04 release party01:01
snap-lThanks to everyone who came out to the release party01:01
snap-lI understnad there wasn't anything in the program, and for that I apologize01:02
snap-lIt unfortunately kept a few people who would otherwise have attended from showing up.01:02
snap-lHopefully if we decide to have it again at Penguicon, we'll manage it better01:02
snap-lSpeaking of Penguicon, this year was quite awesome.01:03
snap-lThe Hotel was awesome, and the Penguicon folks put on a hell of a show on short notice.01:03
snap-lhuge kudos to everyone involved.01:03
snap-lAnything about the release party that anyone would like t comment on?01:04
Ahukasnap-l, did anyone try to contact the Penguicon folks?01:04
snap-lAlso, did anyone else have a release party in MI?01:04
waldo323several people asked me for discs :)01:04
snap-lIt's squarely on my shoulders that we didn't get on the program01:04
snap-lI should have thought to ensure it was on the schedule01:04
Ahuka#1 priority: Find someone to blame.01:05
* waldo323 takes some of it01:05
AhukaWe had a good time anyway.01:05
snap-lIn previous years we've not had anything in the program, but it seems there were an inordinate amount of folks who didn't know where it was01:06
snap-lRegardless, it was a great time01:07
snap-land $4 microbrews = A+01:07
snap-lalthough that Percolater porter was F-01:07
waldo323apparently the tiki bar was a new idea the week of the con, i think we were originally going to be on the other side of the fireplace right?01:07
snap-lhttp://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/1754/717801:07
snap-lI thought so, but the Tiki Bar was a great touch01:09
waldo323indeed01:09
snap-lThey really accomidated everyone01:09
waldo323except those wanting a dull and very quiet time?01:10
snap-lheh01:10
snap-lAnywho, moving on. :)01:10
snap-lRe receifed our bug for reapproval01:10
snap-lWe, rather01:10
snap-land per our discussion last month, I have marked the bug as invalid.01:10
snap-laka: we're not going to shoot for reapproval.01:11
snap-lNo, that doesn't mean we're not going to shoot for staying active01:11
snap-lactive != approval01:11
AhukaThat is what we said.01:11
snap-lbut frankly the approval process is cumbersome, and offers no benefit01:12
waldo323i'd rather we spent more time being active than working on being approved01:13
snap-lSo we're committed to being unapproved.01:13
snap-lRebellious. :)01:13
snap-lunshackled01:13
snap-lWe'll see where that lands us, but I'm confident we'll manage to stay awesome.01:13
snap-lAnd hopefully lead by example of how we can still be awesome and not require the approval process01:14
snap-lFrankly, it needs to end sooner than later01:14
snap-lAny questions for concerns?01:17
AhukaNope.01:17
waldo323not at the moment01:17
snap-lOK, that's all I have at the moment01:17
snap-lso if there isn't anything else, we'll call this puppy adjourned01:17
AhukaCool.01:17
snap-lOh, one last thing: all of the physical media is gone from our group01:18
* waldo323 pets adjourned01:18
snap-lso if you want any more discs, um... you'll have to buy it from Canonical01:18
waldo323that sounds like a good thing01:18
snap-l'cuz there ain't no more.01:18
snap-lyeah, that's a relief01:18
snap-lOK, meeting really adjourned. :)01:19
snap-lThank you all for attending. :)01:19
* waldo323 waves01:19
snap-lOff to watch Doctor Who. :)01:19
waldo323haha nice01:19

brousch1I have craploads of old discs01:37
snap-lGood morning11:57
brouschyes11:57
brousch I had about 25 people at my Kivy talk. That's the biggest crowd yet. They were almost all Python developers and Android users11:58
snap-lThat's awesome.11:59
snap-lWas it recorded?11:59
brouschNo11:59
brouschI want to do it in a 2 parter for PyOhio12:00
brouschPt 1: Intro to Kivy. Pt 2: Kivy on Android12:00
brousch50 minutes isn't enough time to cover both well12:00
snap-lYeah, I could easily see that being the case12:02
=== nullspac1 is now known as nullspace
brouschThe worst thing about the conference was that they served asparagus for lunch. Crowded bathrooms and asparagus piss is not pleasant13:55
jjessewow14:02
jjessethat just sounds disgustting14:02
brouschhehe14:06
snap-lThat sounds... um... awesome?14:55
flipsidecreationI don't understand why they removed some of the keyboard shortcuts such as F3 from nautilis14:55
brouschflipsidecreation: The devs don't use them, so neither should you14:56
flipsidecreationin 13.0414:56

greg-grick_h_: so, jcastro already asked about the conversion of ubuntu wiki, I don't think Ryan has the time to do another one right now, but, there is a mailing list (heh, sorry) of people who do mediawiki consulting that is a good place to hit up15:10
greg-grick_h_: unless it is something differetnt you're thinking of ;)15:11
rick_h_greg-g: ah that'd be cool I guess15:11

* snap-l makes a reminder to never read the comments on Rolling Stone magazine15:49
snap-lespecially when it relates to Dave Grohl inducting Rush into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame15:50
snap-lThere are people who think Eric Clapton is a better musician than Rush15:50
snap-lAnd that is not a world I want to live in. ;)15:50
jrwrenthere are people that think the rock and roll hall of fame is important :(16:52
greg-gheh16:54
snap-lYeah, it's no concern of mine16:58
snap-lMan, MySQL needs to die in a fire.18:42
