| pleia2 | Meeting agenda && | 18:01 |
| pleia2 | ^^ | 18:01 |
| IdleOne | o/ | 18:01 |
| pleia2 | is anyone from the mailing list who participated in the thread about improvements to our getting involved docs here? | 18:02 |
| pleia2 | ok, we'll wait a bit to get to that agenda item then :) | 18:03 |
| pleia2 | #topic 1305 Blueprint updates | 18:03 |

| pleia2 | I sent the contact info for Career Days participants to Cheri703 | 18:03 |
| pleia2 | Cheri703: any progress to report there? | 18:03 |
| Cheri703 | Yes, I am slacking. I will contact them by this weekend. | 18:03 |
| pleia2 | #action Cheri703 to contact potential Career Days participants | 18:04 |
| meetingology | ACTION: Cheri703 to contact potential Career Days participants | 18:04 |
| pleia2 | thanks :) | 18:04 |
| pleia2 | Cheri703: you again, Competition news? :) | 18:04 |
| pleia2 | I added some more questions to our private questions key, so I think we have enough | 18:04 |
| Cheri703 | questions are finally sorted! so next step is creating the form for submission | 18:04 |
| Cheri703 | then choosing a start date and advertising the heck out of it | 18:05 |
| pleia2 | I'm thinking Monday | 18:05 |
| pleia2 | that will give us the weekend to get the form sorted and blog posts prepped | 18:05 |
| Cheri703 | do we want to advertise in advance of start date or? | 18:06 |
| pleia2 | not sure, we also have the survey going out this week (we'll get to that in a moment) | 18:06 |
| pleia2 | maybe we send out a teaser tweet/fb/g+ on Friday? | 18:07 |
| IdleOne | I think it is better to have everything in place before advertising, just in case of any snags | 18:07 |
| pleia2 | #link http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Events/Competitions/ScavengerHunt | 18:07 |
| pleia2 | that will also need to be reviewed and updated as needed with dates | 18:08 |
| Cheri703 | agree with IdleOne | 18:10 |
| Cheri703 | (sorry, someone came to the door) | 18:10 |
| Cheri703 | Original thought had been to start it on like a friday and then run til a monday, so 2 weekends in the contest time frame | 18:10 |
| Cheri703 | so if we start posting about it monday, then we could start it next friday? | 18:10 |
| pleia2 | sure | 18:11 |
| Cheri703 | and that gives us the rest of this week/most of next to get it finalized/ready | 18:11 |
| pleia2 | that will also give us nice spacing between survey announcement and competition | 18:11 |
| Cheri703 | yeah | 18:11 |
| pleia2 | #action pleia2 to update ScavengerHunt wiki | 18:12 |

| pleia2 | Cheri703: want to write the announcement blog post? | 18:12 |
| pleia2 | #action pleia2 to advertise competition on social media | 18:12 |
| meetingology | ACTION: pleia2 to advertise competition on social media | 18:12 |
| Cheri703 | uhm...I can | 18:13 |
| pleia2 | #action Cheri703 to write blog post announcing the competition | 18:13 |
| meetingology | ACTION: Cheri703 to write blog post announcing the competition | 18:13 |
| pleia2 | I can proof read/help as needed :) | 18:13 |
| Cheri703 | ok cool | 18:14 |
| pleia2 | ok, survey! | 18:14 |
| pleia2 | so I worked with AlanBell to come up with survey questions, and the survey is now up :) http://goo.gl/CXem63 | 18:15 |
| pleia2 | pretty basic, I figure we can refine in follow-up surveys as needed | 18:15 |
| pleia2 | this is our first survey so I wanted it to be pretty broad and general | 18:15 |
| pleia2 | I haven't shared the link yet, so this is the debut, if anyone has any comments or changes they wish to see, now's your chance :) | 18:16 |
| pleia2 | good, bad, indifferent? :) | 18:18 |
| Cheri703 | good! :) | 18:18 |
| IdleOne | looks good here | 18:18 |
| pleia2 | ok cool | 18:18 |
| pleia2 | looks like that's it for blueprint items | 18:19 |
| pleia2 | #topic Tips on how to get involved with the various skills that each of us have, either in the community of Ubuntu/Ubuntu-Women/FOSS or in the IT field with FOSS being the focus, and how does the non-FOSS IT world sees the FOSS world in IT field | 18:19 |
| pleia2 | looks like belkinsa isn't here | 18:20 |
| pleia2 | but what I gathered from the thread that inspired this topic is that our "how to get involved" resources aren't obvious enough on our site | 18:20 |
| pleia2 | it's true, http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/ needs some work | 18:21 |
| pleia2 | so I'm thinking I'll follow-up on list and suggest they schedule a meeting specificially to talk about this and see what we can do to improve it :) | 18:21 |
| IdleOne | maybe move the link up just under the About link? | 18:21 |
| IdleOne | your idea is better I think :) | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | IdleOne: I think it's more involved than that and we'll find that even our getting involved page, once found, is not sufficient | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | it's kind of "here are some links, have fun!" | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | #action pleia2 to follow up on list with improvements for getting involved & what people are doing docs | 18:23 |
| meetingology | ACTION: pleia2 to follow up on list with improvements for getting involved & what people are doing docs | 18:23 |
| pleia2 | #topic Any other business (AOB) | 18:24 |
| IdleOne | well it is a wiki, everybody is welcome to improve it :) | 18:24 |
| IdleOne | err maybe not | 18:24 |
| pleia2 | IdleOne: only admins can edit the front page | 18:24 |
| pleia2 | (we've had vandalism) | 18:24 |
| IdleOne | yeah just remembered that | 18:24 |
| pleia2 | and the folks asking for improvements are the ones who are trying to get involved, so they can't really rewrite it ;) | 18:25 |
| pleia2 | feedback from them is essential though | 18:25 |
| IdleOne | indeed | 18:25 |
| pleia2 | ok, so any other things folks wish to discuss? | 18:26 |
| IdleOne | nope :) | 18:26 |
| Cheri703 | I'm good | 18:28 |
| pleia2 | ok, thanks everyone! | 18:31 |
