| SJudge | For any experienced Ubuntu-ie members watching the LoCo projects UDS session, what do think of this idea they are discussing, suggested local projects? | 18:22 |
|---|---|---|
| zmoylan-len | not watching the uds but what type of local projects are they discussing? | 18:24 |
| SJudge | Nothing specific, various projects matching with Local teams experience level | 18:25 |
| SJudge | they are promoting various local teams working together | 18:26 |
| SJudge | One problem being discussed is there is little or no promotional material or resource packs to help run loco team events | 18:26 |
| zmoylan-len | not a bad idea. might make local teams which are quite small more active | 18:27 |
| SJudge | Yup | 18:27 |
| SJudge | seems the lack of resources is a point of frustration for loco team organises | 18:28 |
| SJudge | they are going to discuss more concrete topics and projects | 18:28 |
| zmoylan-len | it's definitely got promise | 18:28 |
| SJudge | Project: Package testing, a common project done by loco's | 18:29 |
| SJudge | Project: Translation jams and sprints | 18:30 |
| SJudge | Project: Involve local teams more in app development, based around an App School idea from another stream | 18:32 |
| SJudge | point of note, the needs to be a train-the-trainner thing because the Ubuntu SDK is different from what is familiar | 18:33 |
| SJudge | Project: Documentation improvements, specifically wiki clean up | 18:34 |
| SJudge | The general idea is to have a pool of projects/events for loco teams to pick from, so that loco leaders are not left to be to one coming up with loco even ideas and organisation | 18:37 |
| zmoylan-len | so it's about creating more online teams than local teams. just hope they organise/communicate well. social media will always exclude some who don't use what ever social media is chosen. but email lists can be... inefficent | 18:42 |
| SJudge | Project: Getting loco's more involved in development for the phone and tablet. The focus should be around demoing and introducing emulator and again teaching the SDK. The expect this will improve when the start working more on the tablet which is the focus this cycle | 18:43 |
| SJudge | It's not necassarily about creating more teams whether online or local. It is more that they want to create a pool of projects that local teams can pick from and organise events and activities around | 18:44 |
| SJudge | I think the end result is there will be more activities to do at the local level that has more direct benefit to the Ubuntu projects | 18:45 |
| SJudge | The stream Etherpad is back up with their ideas is back up now http://pad.ubuntu.com/uds-1311-community-1311-loco-projects and they will put specific projects on the wiki, as yet to be setup | 18:50 |
| SJudge | The session is finishing up now, the YouTube playback of the session should be available here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e99_s2rWJbk&html5=1 | 18:51 |
| * zmoylan-len makes note of link to watch later | 18:54 | |
| SJudge | They are expressing there is a continuous problem to communicate to all the loco's around the world. The loco council is doing some verification process that should improve this. | 18:59 |
| SJudge | Session Ended. | 19:02 |
