| BobJonkman1 | If not, we can leave it until there's a desperate, pent-up demand... | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| BobJonkman1 | OK, let me know, either here in the #ubuntu-ca channel, or on the mailing list. | 00:00 |
| Katherine | Is interest really declining or are there just people temporarily away? | 00:01 |
| BobJonkman1 | It's been quiet all over, so I think people may just be enjoying the last few days of nice weather | 00:01 |
| BobJonkman1 | But there's the possibility that Ubuntu (and Linux in general) have become so mainstream that there is no longer a need for specialized groups. | 00:02 |
| Katherine | The weather is unlikely to be this warm late in October. | 00:02 |
| BobJonkman1 | I'll bet there were Telephone User Groups back in Alex Bell's day | 00:02 |
| BobJonkman1 | But you don't see TUGs around any more, either | 00:03 |
| BobJonkman1 | I dunno, we've had some nice days around Hallowe'en in the past. | 00:03 |
| BobJonkman1 | But I also remember trekking door-to-door with my son through the snow | 00:03 |
| Katherine | They could have used party lines for their meetings. | 00:04 |
| BobJonkman1 | :) | 00:04 |
| BobJonkman1 | If you want a meeting, let me know. | 00:04 |
| BobJonkman1 | Or even better, just pop over to the Ubuntu-ca LoCo page and schedule one yourself. | 00:05 |
| BobJonkman1 | The Ubuntu Hours in Guelph are new, and have been pretty popular (both of them) :| | 00:05 |
| BobJonkman1 | Katherine: If you schedule a meeting or an Ubuntu Hour then I'll come. | 00:06 |
| Katherine | I don't really know enough about what's going on to schedule meetings but I'll try to attend if meetings are scheduled. | 00:07 |
| BobJonkman1 | :) OK. It's pretty easy, just go to http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-ca/ and log in with your Launchpad ID, then you can create a new event | 00:08 |
| BobJonkman1 | We've been using "Event" to schedule a meeting since the "Meeting" interface is pretty clunky. "Event" does what we want, even for meetings | 00:09 |
| BobJonkman1 | So give it a shot. If you schedule the meeting I'll take care of putting up an agenda. We can do the meeting announcements together | 00:09 |
| BobJonkman1 | All right, if there's nothing else, I'll #endmeeting | 00:10 |
| BobJonkman1 | (we're already at T-plus 10 minutes and counting for the meeting end :) ) | 00:11 |
| BobJonkman1 | #endmeeting | 00:11 |

| BobJonkman1 | So that's that! | 00:11 |
| scaldra | Is this where the Ubuntu Kootenay's meet up? | 00:12 |
| BobJonkman1 | Hi scaldra: Yes, they can. | 00:12 |
| BobJonkman1 | I think KombuchaKip is from that area | 00:12 |
| BobJonkman1 | West Coast, anyway. That's close, right? | 00:12 |
| Katherine | Bob: Good luck with your talk. I probably won't be at SFD until later if I make it at all. | 00:13 |
| BobJonkman1 | Katherine: OK, hope to see you, even for a short while | 00:13 |
| KombuchaKip | BobJonkman1: Close, a few hours away. | 00:14 |
| BobJonkman1 | scaldra: I'm not sure how active the Kootenay group is: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Kootenay | 00:14 |
| BobJonkman1 | When I was in Europe, someone asked if I knew his cousin in Newfoundland. | 00:15 |
| scaldra | Yeah the site doesn't even work | 00:15 |
| BobJonkman1 | Newfoundland might actually be closer to Europe than Ontario. | 00:15 |
| BobJonkman1 | Canada is *really* big | 00:15 |
| BobJonkman1 | scaldra: So, there's a project for you! Revive interest in Ubuntu-ca-kootenay ! | 00:16 |
| scaldra | Will try :) | 00:16 |
| Katherine | I guess people in other countries never look at Canada on a world map. | 00:16 |
| scaldra | I'll l start by hanging out here | 00:17 |
| BobJonkman1 | Easiest thing is to hold an Ubuntu Hour. Just make an announcement on the mailing list, maybe put up a poster, and then go have a coffee with friends at a coffeeshop. | 00:17 |
| BobJonkman1 | scaldra: Hanging out here is great! | 00:18 |
| BobJonkman1 | I like the mailing list: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-ca | 00:19 |
| BobJonkman1 | Lots of folks there. It's an informal advice channel, announcements about events, philosophical discussion on free software, you name it! | 00:19 |
| scaldra | Also my user is actually oo-dragon so you know for later | 00:19 |
| BobJonkman1 | OK, but you may need to remind me. Is that your Launchpad username? | 00:20 |
| scaldra | But not at home, so quickly tried to setup irc on my phone to get in time for meeting | 00:21 |
| scaldra | I think so... | 00:22 |
| BobJonkman1 | I'll post minutes on the Wiki shortly, but here's the link: http://ubottu.com/meetingology/logs/ubuntu-ca/2013/ubuntu-ca.2013-09-26-23.01.html | 00:22 |
| scaldra | Well I'm going to head home, so I'll be back later tonight! | 00:24 |
