BobJonkman | I'm Bob Jonkman from Elmira, just slightly north of Waterloo. | 23:03 |
KombuchaKip | Hey everyone. I'm Kip, based near Vancouver, Canada, and I'm project lead behind the Avaneya initiative, a cerebral science fiction game for GNU/Linux. <www.avaneya.com> | 23:03 |
BobJonkman | I'm a systems administrator, got Ubuntu server on a few machines... | 23:03 |
BobJonkman | Hi KombuchaKip! | 23:03 |
azend | I'm azend from Guelph; Very close to Elmira and KW | 23:04 |
BobJonkman | Thought I might be alone in here... | 23:04 |
BobJonkman | Hi azend! | 23:04 |
KombuchaKip | BobJonkman: Hey Bob. | 23:04 |
azend | Hi BobJonkman | 23:04 |
BobJonkman | Little distracted here. I'm at Al Madina, and my Schawarma Poutine is almost ready | 23:05 |
azend | That does sound distracting | 23:06 |
BobJonkman | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2013-05-23 has the agenda for today | 23:06 |
BobJonkman | First item: | 23:07 |
BobJonkman | #topic Canadian Team ReApproval | 23:07 |
=== meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-ca to: Ubuntu Canada LocoTeam | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam | Logs: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ | Next meeting:Thur, 23 May 4pm PDT, 7pm EDT, 8:30pm NDT | Response may take a while, please wait for an answer! | Canadian Team IRC meeting of 23 May 2013 | Current topic: Canadian Team ReApproval | ||
BobJonkman | And the news is: We're re-approved! | 23:07 |
azend | Woohoo! | 23:07 |
BobJonkman | The good news came to us a few days after the last meeting. | 23:07 |
azend | Great work guys! | 23:08 |
BobJonkman | For some reason, it was delayed, and had to go through a Launchpad bug process. | 23:08 |
BobJonkman | https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1075848 is the bug report (and resolution) for our reapproval | 23:08 |
lubotu1 | Ubuntu bug 1075848 in Ubuntu LoCo Teams "Re-approval, ubuntu-ca" [Critical,Fix released] | 23:08 |
BobJonkman | I like that, "Critical, fix released" | 23:09 |
azend | Me too | 23:10 |
BobJonkman | Thanx again to everyone who helped out with that | 23:11 |
BobJonkman | bregma spoke at the LoCo meeting; dscassel wrote some words, kbiefer helped with the ReApproval page... | 23:12 |
BobJonkman | And lots of other folk too! | 23:12 |
azend | And I did nothing which is why I'm thanking those who did :) | 23:13 |
BobJonkman | Hey, you're with us in spirit! | 23:15 |
BobJonkman | And with us now! | 23:15 |
azend | :) | 23:15 |
BobJonkman | On to the next topic: | 23:15 |

BobJonkman | We're about to launch into an UbuntuHour right after the IRC meeting. | 23:16 |
BobJonkman | Slayah is here with me. Hi Slayah! | 23:16 |
Slayah | Hello. | 23:17 |
azend | Hi Slayah | 23:17 |
BobJonkman | But the big news is all the Ubuntu Release Parties we had over the last month | 23:17 |
azend | Certainly | 23:18 |
azend | They were a lot of fun | 23:18 |
azend | I wasn't able to make it out but I hope the one in Toronto was fun | 23:18 |
BobJonkman | Various pictures at http://pix.ie/ubuntuca/album/464470/detailed (KW) | 23:19 |
BobJonkman | http://pix.ie/ubuntuca/album/465654/detailed has the Guelph pics | 23:19 |
BobJonkman | Yay to azend for organizing the Guelph venue. | 23:19 |
* azend thanks BobJonkman for taking some pictures as he forgot. | 23:20 | |
azend | Bigger and better the next time I hope | 23:20 |
BobJonkman | I think there may be more pictures coming (not sure tho) | 23:20 |
BobJonkman | I'm thinking we should put up an Ubuntu Canada Guelph Chapter on the wiki | 23:21 |
azend | I would be happy to | 23:21 |
BobJonkman | Great! | 23:21 |
BobJonkman | #action azend to create an Ubuntu Canada Guelph Chapter page on the Wiki | 23:22 |
meetingology | ACTION: azend to create an Ubuntu Canada Guelph Chapter page on the Wiki | 23:22 |
azend | uh oh | 23:22 |
azend | what am I getting myself into? :P | 23:22 |
BobJonkman | Now it's official. No backing out! :) | 23:22 |
BobJonkman | If you still have access to Diyode facilities, maybe you can host the June IRC meeting IRL | 23:23 |
BobJonkman | Or not. Just an idea. | 23:25 |
azend | I could do that | 23:25 |
azend | I would have to be organized but I could do that | 23:25 |
BobJonkman | #idea The newly formed Guelph Chapter could host the IRC Meeting IRL | 23:25 |
* azend learns that a wiki page constitutes a real life chapter | 23:26 | |
* BobJonkman adds some more hot sauce to the Schawarma Poutine | 23:26 | |
azend | I would be happy to host a meeting | 23:26 |
BobJonkman | Hey, if it's on the Internet, it must be true. | 23:26 |
BobJonkman | Could host an Ubuntu Hour the same way... </hint> | 23:27 |
BobJonkman | Moving on... | 23:28 |
BobJonkman | subtopic Online events | 23:28 |
BobJonkman | #subtopic Online events | 23:28 |
* azend looked away | 23:28 | |
azend | online events! | 23:28 |
BobJonkman | Did anyone attend any of hthe UDS or Ubuntu Open Week events? | 23:28 |
azend | I didn't.. | 23:28 |
azend | and it looks like it's just you and me BobJonkman | 23:29 |
BobJonkman | :) | 23:29 |
BobJonkman | I sat in on the IRC discussion for the LoCo chapter subdivision discussion. | 23:30 |
BobJonkman | Same as before - the LoCo council is in favour of breaking up large country LoCos into provincial or state chapters; some LoCos prefer City or region chapters, others don't want sub-chapters at all. | 23:30 |
azend | I think this is all I've got http://imgur.com/a/7knay | 23:31 |
BobJonkman | Sadly, most of that meeting took place in a Google Hangout, which doesn't work on a computer running only on F/LOSS | 23:31 |
BobJonkman | And I don't think the IRC discussion for that was archived beyond the IRC Log Bot | 23:32 |
azend | That's both true and rather ironic | 23:32 |
azend | aren't the hangout sessions recorded and posted to youtube afterwards? | 23:32 |
BobJonkman | Yes, but they lack the IRC portion of the discussion | 23:32 |
BobJonkman | There was also an Ubuntu (Ether)pad in progress; I don't know what happened with that. | 23:33 |
azend | Etherpad is awesome these days | 23:33 |
azend | I'm really happy with how far they've come | 23:34 |
BobJonkman | If anyone's interested, I can find the links to the video, IRC logs and UbuntuPad | 23:34 |
BobJonkman | Yeh, I've been running an Etherpad VM appliance. | 23:34 |
BobJonkman | But I like that Ubuntu is hosting its own Pad service | 23:34 |
BobJonkman | Better than relying on Google Docs | 23:35 |
azend | Very true | 23:36 |
BobJonkman | Moving on? | 23:36 |
azend | Definately | 23:36 |

BobJonkman | I have nothing | 23:37 |
azend | Mail-order Ubuntu Canada promotional materials | 23:37 |
BobJonkman | Oh? | 23:38 |
azend | it would be cool if you could order posters or something from another member with a nice printer | 23:38 |
azend | KwartzLab for instance has a great printer | 23:38 |
azend | it would be cool if we could shoot them a couple bucks for 20 posters or something | 23:38 |
azend | I managed to have a plotter lying around but, for those who don't, it would be cool if we could give them something to show off | 23:39 |
azend | Just an idea. | 23:39 |
azend | #topic Call-out for an order of Ubuntu Canada stickers | 23:40 |
azend | Those interested can come and contact me | 23:41 |
azend | ouch... | 23:41 |
azend | I didn't know he hated my idea that much.. | 23:41 |
Slayah | He just pinged out | 23:41 |
BobJonkman1 | Is that where you got your party poster? http://pix.ie/ubuntuca/album/465654/detailed | 23:41 |
azend | Slayah: I know :P | 23:41 |

azend | Just an idea. | 23:42 |
azend | BobJonkman1: no. I did not get my poster from KwartzLab | 23:42 |
azend | that was printed at my school and then carried through cambridge to guelph on a long and arduous travel path | 23:43 |
BobJonkman1 | #idea: Get some local makerspaces to print promotional posters for distribution to Canadian Team members | 23:43 |
azend | But the poster looked pretty good | 23:43 |
azend | BobJonkman1: Look at you. Getting the command verb correct. | 23:44 |
BobJonkman1 | Sure did! | 23:44 |
BobJonkman1 | (that was meant for "the poster Sure Did look good", not "I Sure Did get that command verb correct" | 23:45 |
azend | I got that :) | 23:45 |
BobJonkman1 | azend: Are you on the Ubuntu-ca mailing list? | 23:46 |
azend | It would be nice to get some stickers together though | 23:46 |
azend | BobJonkman1: I believe so | 23:46 |
azend | Yes I am | 23:46 |
BobJonkman1 | The mailing list might be the best place to coordinate poster requests (and possible printing locations) | 23:47 |
azend | Sure | 23:47 |
BobJonkman1 | https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-ca for subscribing to the mailing list, for anyone who is interested | 23:48 |
BobJonkman1 | azend: Do you want to run with that? Asking on the mailing list to see who's interested in coughing up some bucks for posters or stickers? | 23:49 |
azend | Sure. | 23:49 |
azend | I might give it a couple of hours to talk with the people who already have purchased stickers for Diyode | 23:50 |
Slayah | He pinged out again | 23:50 |
azend | Slayah: darn him | 23:50 |
BobJonkman2 | Sorry. Just switch WiFi APs | 23:51 |
azend | Wind mobile eh? That's why. | 23:51 |
BobJonkman2 | Actually, I just connected to my phone tether. The restaurant WiFi was flakey. | 23:51 |
azend | That makes sense | 23:51 |
azend | Restaurant wifi is even worse than Wind | 23:51 |
BobJonkman2 | So: | 23:52 |
azend | Sure. | 23:52 |
azend | I might give it a couple of hours to talk with the people who already have purchased stickers for Diyode | 23:52 |
BobJonkman2 | #action azend to ask on the mailing list about printing posters and stickers | 23:52 |
meetingology | ACTION: azend to ask on the mailing list about printing posters and stickers | 23:52 |
BobJonkman2 | That's probably the coolest thing anyone's come up with in one of these IRC meetings in a long time | 23:53 |
azend | Trust me, I didn't think too hard on it. | 23:54 |
azend | but I would love an ubuntu canada sticker on my laptop | 23:54 |
BobJonkman2 | There's always room for another sticker! | 23:55 |
BobJonkman2 | OK, approaching the end of the IRC hour. | 23:56 |
azend | I hadn't realized that it has been an hour already | 23:56 |
azend | time flies | 23:57 |
BobJonkman2 | Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana. | 23:57 |
azend | Does anyone else have anything else to bring up | 23:57 |

BobJonkman2 | Next meeting for 27 June? That's a Thursday... | 23:58 |
azend | Sounds good to me | 23:58 |
BobJonkman2 | Or we can delay setting a date until you've confirmed a venue for IRC IRL | 23:58 |
azend | I can't do Wednesdays anyways | 23:58 |
azend | Thursdays work though | 23:58 |
azend | Oh right | 23:58 |
azend | I forgot I was hosting it | 23:59 |
azend | Yeah sounds fine | 23:59 |
BobJonkman2 | :-) I'll add the events & stuff for the meeting, I'll leave it to azend to create an event for the IRL | 23:59 |
