[22:55]  * BobJonkman1 wonders what the "T" means

[23:01] <BobJonkman1> Hello Everybodeee!  Katherine sigint KombuchaKip wylde sipherdee cyphermox jaguar- DarwinSurvivor zul txwikinger mars jlamothe laurelrusswurm FiReSTaRT cjop ryanakca bregma dscassel johanbr
[23:02] <BobJonkman1> It's time for the monthly IRC meeting.
[23:02] <KombuchaKip> Hey all. Kip from the Avaneya project, a cerebral science fiction game for Ubuntu. (White Rock, BC, Canada).
[23:02] <BobJonkman1> There's an agenda at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2013/2013-09-26
[23:02] <BobJonkman1> Hi KombuchaKip!
[23:02]  * KombuchaKip waves BobJonkman1
[23:03] <BobJonkman1> #subtopic Introductions
[23:04] <BobJonkman1> Let's follow KombuchaKip's example. Who are you, where are you from, what's your involvement with Ubuntu?
[23:04] <BobJonkman1> I'm Bob Jonkman from Elmira, Ontario (just north of Waterloo). I'm a sysadmin and Ubuntu enthusiast
[23:06] <BobJonkman1> Slow night :)
[23:06] <BobJonkman1> Must be the good weather on the last nice day of the year
[23:07] <BobJonkman1> Well, racing on to the next topic then...
[23:08] <BobJonkman1> #topic Events
[23:08] <BobJonkman1> Did anyone attend sessions at the Ubuntu Developer Summit?
[23:09] <BobJonkman1> http://uds.ubuntu.com/
[23:09] <BobJonkman1> It's too bad that most sessions are now on Google Hangouts, and not using Free Software for online collaboration.
[23:10] <BobJonkman1> Since I don't have the Google Hangout plugins installed on my computer I didn't see any of the sessions
[23:13] <BobJonkman1> #link Recorded videos are on the Ubuntu Community Channel at http://ubuntu.mirocommunity.org/
[23:14] <BobJonkman1> But I don't see any of the UDS videos featured on that page.
[23:15] <BobJonkman1> #subtopic Ubuntu Global Jam
[23:15] <BobJonkman1> So, who jammed?
[23:15] <BobJonkman1> We had a pretty good turnout at the Kitchener Global Jam
[23:16] <BobJonkman1> #link Pictures are at http://pix.ie/ubuntuca/album/475387/detailed
[23:16] <Katherine> I was sorry to have to miss it.
[23:17] <BobJonkman1> Katherine: We missed you!
[23:18] <Katherine> Maybe next time... I hope.
[23:18] <BobJonkman1> There will be other jams, usually about a month for a release
[23:18] <BobJonkman1> I filed a few bugs: https://bugs.launchpad.net/~bjonkman
[23:18] <BobJonkman1> I know others did too
[23:19] <BobJonkman1> But largely it was a good day for meeting like-minded Ubuntu folks
[23:19] <BobJonkman1> People came to Kitchener from Mississauga and Toronto!
[23:21] <BobJonkman1> Many thanx to Charles McColm @chaslinux for organizing the Kitchener Global Jam event
[23:22] <BobJonkman1> @chaslinux tweeted about UGJ : https://twitter.com/chaslinux/status/378910396020953088
[23:22] <meetingology> BobJonkman1: Error: "chaslinux" is not a valid command.
[23:24] <BobJonkman1> #subtopic Software Freedom Day
[23:24] <BobJonkman1> How about SFD last Saturday? Did anyone go to one of the events in Canada?
[23:25] <BobJonkman1> http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2013/Canada/
[23:26] <BobJonkman1> There's an upcoming Software Freedom Day celebration in Kitchener at Kwartzlab this coming Saturday (T-minus two days and counting!)
[23:26] <BobJonkman1> http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2013/Canada/Kitchener/Kwartzlab
[23:29] <BobJonkman1> I'm giving the first talk on ownCloud, doing a live demonstration.
[23:30] <Katherine> what time does your talk start?
[23:32] <BobJonkman1> I'm presenting at 11:00am
[23:32] <BobJonkman1> I'll probably do a brief introduction of Free Software, since we don't have a "What Is Free Software" presentation this year
[23:33] <BobJonkman1> I hope to cover installation, updating, and a brief tour of the major features
[23:33] <BobJonkman1> I was on the #owncloud channel to ask a questions, and spoke to one of the developers
[23:33] <BobJonkman1> Turns out he's from Waterloo too, and he'll be coming down to help me present
[23:34] <BobJonkman1> He writes the News addon, so he'll demonstrate that in the last 15-20 minutes or so
[23:35] <BobJonkman1> ...that's Alessandro Cosentino, zimba12 in the #owncloud channel
[23:37] <BobJonkman1> We're also going to stream Richard Stallman's keynote speech at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts starting at 5:00pm
[23:39] <BobJonkman1> So we'll certainly go much later than the 5:00pm end time indicated on http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2013/Canada/Kitchener/Kwartzlab#Charles_McColm:_XBMC:_Building_Your_Own_Entertainment_System
[23:39] <BobJonkman1> #subtopic Ubuntu Release Parties
[23:39] <BobJonkman1> Let's do some Release Party planning!
[23:40] <BobJonkman1> Ubuntu 13.10, Saucy Salamander, is scheduled for release on 17 October
[23:41] <BobJonkman1> That's T-minus 21 days and counting!
[23:42] <BobJonkman1> Who's planning an Ubuntu Release Party?
[23:43] <BobJonkman1> dscassel says that Release Parties are a tradition, and there will almost certainly be one in the Kitchener-Waterloo area
[23:44] <BobJonkman1> My guess is that it'll be at Kwartzlab, probably on Thursday, 17 October
[23:45] <BobJonkman1> (they've got a Hackathon planned for Saturday and Sunday, 19-20 October
[23:46] <BobJonkman1> Or maybe Ubuntoids will be invited to the Hackathon, and we'll all party together.
[23:47] <Katherine> what are they coding about?
[23:50]  * BobJonkman1 goes to check the Kwartzlab calendar...
[23:50] <BobJonkman1> #link: Kwartzlab Global Synchronous Hackathon: https://www.google.com/calendar/event?eid=OTk5ZHMzZmxpNWs5NTBvcW82MjljMXJmbDggZXZlbnRzQGt3YXJ0emxhYi5jYQ&ctz=America/Toronto
[23:54] <BobJonkman1> Doesn't say much about the topic for the hackathon.
[23:54] <BobJonkman1> Hopefully someone will post to the Kwartzlab blog about it
[23:55] <BobJonkman1> #topic Other stuff
[23:55] <BobJonkman1> We're approaching the end of the IRC meeting (T-minus five minutes and counting)
[23:55] <BobJonkman1> Anyone have anything else?
[23:56] <BobJonkman1> I should mention the Ubuntu Hour in Guelph tomorrow night...
[23:56]  * BobJonkman1 mentions the Ubuntu Hour in Guelph tomorrow night
[23:56] <BobJonkman1> So that's covered :)
[23:57] <BobJonkman1> #link to Ubuntu Hour Guelph: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-ca/2545-ubuntu-hour-guelph/
[23:58] <BobJonkman1> The next IRC meeting would be on the fourth Thursday in October, that would be the 24th.
[23:58] <BobJonkman1> But the last few meetings it's just been me talking to myself.
[23:58] <BobJonkman1> I can do that without scheduling a meeting.
[23:59] <BobJonkman1> So is there anyone who really wants to schedule the next one?
