| pleia2 | #topic 1305 Blueprint updates | 18:02 |
| pleia2 | #link https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu-women.org/+spec/community-1305-ubuntu-women | 18:02 |
| Dolasilla | hi all, sorry, little late | 18:02 |
| pleia2 | so we made a nice dent in our blueprint :) | 18:02 |
| Cheri703 | here, had to reboot computer | 18:02 |
| pleia2 | pretty much the only things left are career days sessions, which we'll POSTPONE until next cycle | 18:02 |
| pleia2 | I'll be making these a higher priority on my list as we've had direct interest in doing more of them | 18:03 |
| pleia2 | oh, I should say that release is on October 17th, so new cycle starts soon :) | 18:03 |
| Dolasilla | pleia2, shall we add to the bluprint the review of the content on the site? | 18:04 |
| pleia2 | we'll be participating in the online UDS in November as well to hash our ideas: http://uds.ubuntu.com/ | 18:04 |
| pleia2 | Dolasilla: we should probably put a wiki page together of things we want to discuss for blueprint goals | 18:04 |
| Dolasilla | pleia2, right | 18:04 |
| belkinsa | That can work or maybe a LP page for the ease of editing? | 18:05 |
| pleia2 | http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/RoadMap | 18:05 |
| pleia2 | so we can create a Roadmap-S | 18:05 |
| pleia2 | err -T | 18:05 |
| * belkinsa nods | 18:05 | |
| pleia2 | we never had one for -S, virtualized UDS threw us for a loop | 18:05 |
| pleia2 | I'll create that as we get closer to UDS so we can all chime in | 18:06 |
| pleia2 | anyway, great job everyone this cycle :) | 18:06 |
| pleia2 | #topic Revisting the discussion about "Improvements to GetInvolved page" | 18:07 |
| pleia2 | belkinsa: the floor is yours! | 18:07 |
| belkinsa | Thank you, pleia2. | 18:07 |
| belkinsa | We made some progress with the GetInolved Page Project. | 18:08 |
| belkinsa | We have the 'What People are Doing page" up and ready for your stories of you guys got involved with Ubuntu. | 18:09 |
| pleia2 | http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/GIWPI | 18:09 |
| pleia2 | #link http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/GIWPI | 18:09 |
| pleia2 | #link http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/WhatPeopleAreDoing | 18:09 |
| belkinsa | You can e-mail me the stories or you can add them yourself if you have the skills to edit wiki pages. | 18:10 |
| belkinsa | There is no deadline to this. | 18:10 |
| pleia2 | thanks for taking initiative on this :) | 18:10 |
| pleia2 | it's a great idea | 18:10 |
| belkinsa | Not a problem. | 18:10 |
| belkinsa | Any questions so far? | 18:10 |
| Dolasilla | no, clear and looks pretty nice to me! | 18:11 |
| belkinsa | Okay. | 18:11 |
| pleia2 | belkinsa: do you have any specific tasks folks can work on to help with the getting involved page? | 18:11 |
| belkinsa | Not at the moment, but since you mentioned it, I can think about this. Thank you. | 18:12 |
| pleia2 | belkinsa: also, if you're interested we can do a blog post on blog.ubuntu-women.org about "What people are doing" to raise the profile a bit | 18:12 |
| belkinsa | I'm interested in this idea of posting a call on the blog. | 18:13 |
| pleia2 | great, sync up with me via email with some proposed text and we'll get something up :) | 18:13 |
| Dolasilla | belkinsa, are you still thinking of putting in place the quiz to find the best team for getting involved? | 18:13 |
| belkinsa | Okay. | 18:13 |
| belkinsa | I am and this was the next thing that I was going to bring up. | 18:14 |
| belkinsa | Is it safe to move on to the quiz idea? | 18:15 |
| pleia2 | so the current problem is we have no where to host it | 18:15 |
| pleia2 | I was thinking we should instead put our efforts into getting it included on community.ubuntu.com | 18:15 |
| belkinsa | Yes, to help the others in the community. | 18:15 |
| Dolasilla | makes sense | 18:16 |
| pleia2 | belkinsa: dholbach is lead on community.ubuntu.com, I can put you in touch with him if that would be helpful | 18:16 |
| belkinsa | Okay, I will e-mail him about hosting the quiz. | 18:16 |
| belkinsa | Wait, never mind. Thank you for doing this. | 18:17 |
| belkinsa | Safe to move on to last idea? | 18:19 |
| pleia2 | I'd say so | 18:20 |
| pleia2 | #topic Discuss survey results part 2 | 18:20 |
| pleia2 | #link http://blog.ubuntu-women.org/2013/10/ubuntu-women-survey-2013-results-part-2/ | 18:20 |
| pleia2 | so based on feedback, belkinsa is totally on the right track with improving our Getting Involved stuff :) | 18:20 |
| Dolasilla | true :) | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | it was nice to see some fresh ideas for things we can be doing too | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | now we just need to drum up the volunteers to make it happen ;) | 18:22 |
| belkinsa | Yup. | 18:22 |
| pleia2 | anyone else have any comments? | 18:24 |
| belkinsa | I have one suggestion about for the developers type of people not knowing how to get into a project. | 18:24 |
| Dolasilla | one of the point is to create online projects.. | 18:24 |
| belkinsa | Maybe a wiki page with a list of active projects that they can look through? | 18:24 |
| Dolasilla | yes would make sense, but we would need to find good ideas to populate it | 18:25 |
| anna_ | this developer type of person would like that | 18:25 |
| pleia2 | Dolasilla: yeah, I think that's always been the challenge | 18:26 |
| pleia2 | it would be great to see though | 18:27 |
| anna_ | do you know experienced developers who might have 'boring' stuff lying around which they don't have time/priority for? | 18:27 |
| anna_ | it might be not-so-boring for people who are just starting :) | 18:28 |
| pleia2 | it's kind of a chicken and egg problem, developers are too busy to delegate tasks, so they continue to be too busy | 18:28 |
| pleia2 | it takes a fair amount of effort to put a task into something that a new developer can tackle | 18:29 |
| anna_ | and then there's quality control, yes | 18:29 |
| pleia2 | it's not hopeless, we just need someone to take ownership of making this project happen and approaching developers for bite-size tasks | 18:29 |
| Dolasilla | pleia2, there was something setup by daniel time ago, no? little bug fixes to get started with coding? | 18:30 |
| Dolasilla | could we reuse that? | 18:30 |
| pleia2 | Dolasilla: yes, a long time ago, might be something we can look into | 18:31 |
| Dolasilla | I will try to retrieve the link | 18:31 |
| pleia2 | http://harvest.ubuntu.com/ | 18:31 |
| Dolasilla | :D | 18:32 |
| Dolasilla | thanks pleia2! :D | 18:32 |
| belkinsa | Is it still alive? | 18:32 |
| pleia2 | no | 18:32 |
| belkinsa | I see. | 18:32 |
| pleia2 | but it could be resurrected | 18:32 |
| belkinsa | It could. | 18:32 |
| pleia2 | since it already exists I think Dolasilla is right, this would be a good starting point | 18:32 |
| belkinsa | Maybe with the help of the community. | 18:32 |
| pleia2 | anyone want to take some time to browse the status of harvest and put together a quick report for the team? | 18:33 |
| Dolasilla | pleia2, I can take that | 18:34 |
| pleia2 | thanks! | 18:34 |

| belkinsa | Nope. | 18:37 |
| pleia2 | anyone else have any comments, ideas, etc before we wrap up? :) | 18:37 |
| belkinsa | Wel,, I do. | 18:37 |
| pleia2 | go for it | 18:38 |
| Cheri703 | I do when belkinsa is done | 18:38 |
| belkinsa | About the image of the group out reaching past the circle of Ubuntu. Maybe it's a good idea to get article in a non-Ubuntu mag? | 18:38 |
| belkinsa | In another Linux mag, is what I mean. | 18:39 |
| pleia2 | about Ubuntu Women specifically? | 18:39 |
| belkinsa | Yes, and what the members are doing in the community and that stuff. | 18:39 |
| belkinsa | It could bring more women in. | 18:39 |
| pleia2 | yeah, we can certainly look into that | 18:41 |
| belkinsa | Cool, thanks. | 18:41 |
| * belkinsa nods to Cheri703 | 18:42 | |
| Cheri703 | my question is what time frame are we on with leadership terms? I know that we had the most recent election a while back...I can't remember | 18:42 |
| pleia2 | I think we'll be doing an election next summer | 18:43 |
| Cheri703 | ok, just curious :) | 18:43 |
| pleia2 | for all 3 spots (we have 4 now because there was a tie) | 18:43 |
| pleia2 | Cheri703: don't you want to be a leader FOREVER? :) | 18:44 |
| Cheri703 | well obviously | 18:45 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 18:45 |
| Dolasilla | lol | 18:45 |
| belkinsa | lol | 18:45 |
| pleia2 | oh, also worth mentioning that we wrapped up our scavenger hunt! | 18:45 |
| pleia2 | #link http://blog.ubuntu-women.org/2013/10/scavenger-hunt-results/ | 18:45 |
| pleia2 | thanks to Cheri703 for leading up that effort and getting the prizes sorted + shipped to the winners :) | 18:45 |
| Dolasilla | 38 submissions is not bad...! | 18:46 |
| pleia2 | also, someone other than me needs to do art things (isn't that trophy clip art beautiful? oh gosh...) | 18:46 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 18:46 |
| pleia2 | I should be banned from inkscape | 18:47 |
| pleia2 | alright, anything else? | 18:47 |
| belkinsa | Nope. | 18:47 |
| Dolasilla | no | 18:48 |
| pleia2 | ok, thanks everyone! | 18:48 |
| belkinsa | Not a problem. | 18:48 |
| pleia2 | and it was great to see new faces, thanks for coming anna_! | 18:48 |
