belkinsapleia2 not at this time.18:03
pleia2ok, anyone else?18:04
pleia2we kicked off a review of harvest.ubuntu.com based on the feedback18:04
pleia2#link http://blog.ubuntu-women.org/2013/11/evaluating-harvest/18:04
pleia2could use some more folks looking at it :)18:04
belkinsaAgreed, the only feedback is from me and another person.18:05
pleia2belkinsa: oh, you might want to follow-up with your mailing list post by putting the text of the etherpad into the email, as they expire pretty quick18:05
pleia2(can't remember if expiration is 7 or 30 days, but it has caused headaches on other lists)18:05
belkinsaThanks for letting me know18:06
belkinsaAnd on it18:06
pleia2\o/18:06
belkinsaMind if the content be publicly on the mailing list?18:07
pleia2all the links are public, should be ok18:08
belkinsaOkay, thanks.18:09
pleia2guess we can move on from this topic then18:09
pleia2#topic Virtual Ubuntu Developer Summit, November 19-21 preparations18:09
pleia2so, we're in the community track18:10
pleia2#link http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-1311/track/community/18:10
pleia2currently scheduled for a session on Wednesday at 15:0518:10
pleia2(7:05 am for me, goodie :))18:10
Deindrecould we use vUDS to reach some team who wish to open their partecipation to new women?18:10
pleia2Deindre: possibly, have any idea how?18:11
DeindreI think a frequent request is to have some "practical" issue to work on.18:11
DeindreI think this could be a great opportunity to meet mentors- to-come18:12
pleia2currently all we have right now for teams is http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/BestPractices18:12
pleia2which is more focused on LoCos18:12
Deindreyes, I mean something more focused on team AND people18:13
pleia2ok, I'll add it to the roadmap wiki18:13
Deindrethank you :)18:14
pleia2ok, chatting about career days, GetInvolved improvements and BestPractices improvements gives us a good place to start with vUDS next week18:16
Deindrepleia2: is our track tomorrow?18:16
pleia2Deindre: no, vUDS is next week18:16
Deindreok18:17
pleia2Wednesday the 20th :)18:17
DeindreI'll write a remeinder on ML18:17
pleia2great, thanks18:17
pleia2https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu-women.org/+spec/community-1311-ubuntu-women is our empty-ish blueprint18:18
pleia2(which we'll populate at the session)18:18
pleia2#topic Any other business (AOB)18:18
pleia2any other topics folks want to talk about?18:18
DeindreIt seems to me nobody has applied to OPW18:19
DeindreDo you know is anybody has?18:19
DeindreIF anybody, sorry :)18:20
pleia2I know there are lots of applicants this time around (the program is VERY popular) but Ubuntu so far still doesn't have mentors18:21
belkinsaAs a whole commiunty or just us, the women?18:22
DeindreI think this is a missing opportunity, really. Maybe we could work on it in someways18:22
pleia2I've reached out to several folks in the community and thus far no one has time to the run the program18:22
akkOPW?18:22
pleia2akk: gnome outreach program for women18:22
akkah, thanks, didn't know the TLA for it18:23
pleia2#link http://gnome.org/opw/18:23
belkinsaTLA?18:23
pleia2we had the director of the gnome foundation join us a few months ago to talk about it18:23
pleia2Deindre: if you can find someone to run it (or are able yourself) I'd encourage you to give it a shot :)18:24
akkbelkinsa: three letter acronym18:24
belkinsaThank you, akk.18:24
DeindreI was wondering to candidate myself for a marketing mentoring18:24
pleia2I can't myself, and haven't found people to help, only people who want to see it happen but can't help :]18:24
akkbelkinsa: If it's four letters it's an ETLA (extended TLA) :)18:24
DeindreI think since Mark hass been really interested in supporting women outreaches, we should find a way to nourish this opportunity18:26
pleia2canonical isn't interested in mentoring programs at all really18:27
pleia2it's all been community-led to even apply for the google summer of code (which we didn't get accepted for this year)18:27
Deindremmm this is another reason to help women coming from Ubuntu to apply to OPW/GSoC18:29
Deindrepleia2: do you agree?18:29
pleia2Deindre: I certainly think the programs are great :)18:29
pleia2women participating with Ubuntu should certainly apply if they are in a position to do so, we just don't run one for Ubuntu right now18:30
pleia2it would be *great* if we did, but I don't have time to lead it (I've also been asked to mentor for another open source project, I just don't have time)18:30
Deindrelet's begin helping in apply properly: since competition is very high, we could support18:30
pleia2sounds good18:31
Deindre:)18:31
pleia2the deadline for this OPW was yesterday, so we'll shoot for the next one18:31
belkinsaAnd maybe have a plan to help women to apply?18:32
pleia2belkinsa: I think that's what Deindre is suggesting18:32
belkinsaI see.18:32
pleia2it wouldn't be for Ubuntu, but in general18:32
pleia2lots of great projects to choose from :)18:32
belkinsaDoesn't matter, if it helps women in FOSS, it will do.18:33
pleia2yep18:33
pleia2ok, anything else before we wrap up?18:34
DeindreI'm fine :)18:34
belkinsaI'm fine18:35
pleia2ok, thanks everyone :)18:35
