[18:02] <elfy> agenda is empty other than fixed items
[18:02] <elfy> and we can do that - both happy?
[18:02] <Iowan> :)
[18:02] <elfy> coffeecat ^^ ?
[18:03] <coffeecat> o/
[18:03] <elfy> you happy for the 3 of us to make the other 4 do the month's task?
[18:03] <Iowan> :D
[18:03] <coffeecat> :)
[18:04] <elfy> or shall we do what we did last month task wise except I will go through monthly report with sef ?
[18:04] <Iowan> +1
[18:05] <coffeecat> ok
[18:05] <elfy> #info all to do tasks as last month - except elfy will work through monthly report with sef
[18:06] <coffeecat> The contact us form is the most onerous. Suggest you pm the missing ones to see if one of them wants to volunteer.
[18:06] <elfy> obviously got syntax wrong there then :)
[18:06] <elfy> coffeecat: it's been fairly easy this month
[18:06] <coffeecat> lucky old you!
[18:06] <coffeecat> I get all the weird ones it seems.
[18:06] <elfy> :)
[18:07] <coffeecat> I'm happy to carry on with the welcome pm. I get one pointless reply per day.
[18:07] <elfy> #nick coffeecat to deal with welcome pm
[18:07] <Iowan> Curious why I've been getting some, too...
[18:07] <elfy> well I hate this bot then :)
[18:08] <coffeecat> Iowan - probably old ones - people who've only just worked out how to login.
[18:08] <elfy> Iowan: it'll be an admincp setting
[18:08] <elfy> or that
[18:08] <Iowan> Doesn't bother me - just curious
[18:09] <Iowan> elfy - #action?
[18:09] <elfy> possibly
[18:09] <elfy> #action coffeecat to deal with welcome pm
[18:09] <meetingology> ACTION: coffeecat to deal with welcome pm
[18:09] <elfy> yay
[18:10] <elfy> #action elfy to work through Monthly Report with Sef
[18:10] <meetingology> ACTION: elfy to work through Monthly Report with Sef
[18:10] <elfy> #action contact us link to be elfy
[18:10] <meetingology> ACTION: contact us link to be elfy
[18:10]  * Iowan just skates by again...
[18:11] <elfy> mmm - who did first contact in RC ? was it merk?
[18:11] <Iowan> All of  us?
[18:12] <pleia2> if you don't mind, I do have a quick question for the FC (from the newsletter team)
[18:12] <coffeecat> I think it's just whoever first notices.
[18:12] <elfy> I thought merk was first - unless someone pitched up
[18:12] <elfy> pleia2: ok - give us a moment
[18:12] <elfy> #action RC first contact - whoever notices first
[18:12] <meetingology> ACTION: RC first contact - whoever notices first
[18:13] <coffeecat> I'll create an account name "whoever notices first" ;-)
[18:13] <elfy> anything else?
[18:13] <elfy> coffeecat: can I #action that :D
[18:13] <coffeecat> lol
[18:13] <elfy> nothing else that I can think of
[18:14] <coffeecat> nothing I can think of
[18:14] <Iowan> nothing here...
[18:14] <elfy> k
[18:14] <elfy> hi pleia2 - how can we help the newsletter team?
[18:14] <pleia2> ask ubuntu sent us a nice script for pulling weekly stats (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue312#Ask_Ubuntu_Top_5_Questions_this_week ) does the forums have the ability/desire to include something similar stats-wise?
[18:14] <elfy> mmm
[18:14] <pleia2> if not, that's fine, but I did want to reach out
[18:15] <elfy> sounds like a great idea - except last week it would likely have been the community is being ignored again :D
[18:15] <pleia2> that's ok, we try to be as non-bias as possible in reporting :)
[18:16] <pleia2> good news, bad news, whatever!
[18:16] <elfy> can we think about how we could actually try and make it work forum wise - it's a bit different there - we don't close things like AU does obviosuly
[18:16]  * pleia2 nods
[18:16] <elfy> but it sounds like a good idea if we can get around what and how to do it to me
[18:16] <elfy> coffeecat Iowan ? thoughts at a first glance?
[18:17] <pleia2> we hang out in #ubuntu-news or you can just ping me once/if you have an idea
[18:17] <Iowan> make it an agenda item for next time - just as a reminder to us weak-memoried
[18:17] <elfy> yea - I can usually find you pleia2
[18:17] <pleia2> I just wanted to put the invite out there (we aren't specifically including askubuntu and excluding you! they asked and provided a script)
[18:18] <elfy> #action - look into 'stat' script for newsletter - FC mailing list
[18:18] <pleia2> thanks everyone :)
[18:18] <meetingology> ACTION: - look into 'stat' script for newsletter - FC mailing list
[18:18] <Iowan> that works, too...
[18:18] <coffeecat> I suppose we could go by tags - it should be straightforward to search for them - but not everyone uses tags or those who do even sensibly
[18:18] <elfy> yea coffeecat agreed - but certainly something we can look at
[18:18] <elfy> even if it's hand done once a month by mmmm
[18:18] <Iowan> gonna take some head-scratching
[18:18] <elfy> cariboo907
[18:19] <pleia2> monthly is fine too
[18:19] <elfy> cos he's not here either :p
[18:19] <coffeecat> yeah - raw data on number of new posts/threads is fairly boring.
[18:19] <elfy> pleia2: we'll have a think - thanks for coming by
[18:19] <Iowan> ban /infraction list ;)
[18:19] <elfy> coffeecat: agreed with that
[18:19] <coffeecat> lol
[18:20] <elfy> anything else?
[18:20] <elfy> anyone?
[18:21] <Iowan> nothing productive
[18:21] <coffeecat> nothing more from me
[18:21] <elfy> ok
