| pleia2 | philipballew: oops, just saw your meeting announcement | 00:39 |
|---|---|---|
| philipballew | pleia2, no worries! | 00:39 |
| philipballew | I figured you were either traveling or jet lagged so I just went and send it. | 00:40 |
| philipballew | but then again, you are always kinda traveling these days. | 00:40 |
| pleia2 | so jetlagged that when I do get around to sending it, I don't check if someone else sent it first ;) | 00:40 |
| pleia2 | not traveling again until scale! | 00:41 |
| philipballew | pleia2, no worries. I'll be at the meeting. (If I am not tweet or call or text and I'll hop on) | 00:41 |
| philipballew | SCALE is an easy two hour car ride for me in reavol's car... | 00:42 |
| pleia2 | I am trying to convince mjoseph to take the train down | 00:42 |
| philipballew | pleia2, iirc, you can take one that goes along the coast. | 00:43 |
| pleia2 | yep | 00:43 |
| pleia2 | the coast starlight | 00:43 |
| philipballew | and trains have wifi | 00:43 |
| philipballew | so there is that | 00:43 |
| philipballew | I was gonna look at megabus, greyhound and train prices to show at the meeting tonight in hopes people will buy them and come down... | 00:44 |
| philipballew | also pleia2 I hear Southwest has some really good deals :) :) | 00:45 |
| pleia2 | I don't fly off alliance ;P | 00:46 |
| pleia2 | need my FF miles! | 00:46 |
| philipballew | yeah, Southwest if the only sac to san diego direct so I do them for that. I like Us Airways, but have never had good luck with United. | 00:46 |
| philipballew | by us air, I mean old us air... | 00:47 |
| philipballew | not American | 00:47 |
| pleia2 | heh, united is awful | 00:47 |
| philipballew | I spent the night at sfo because United canceled my flight... | 00:47 |
| pleia2 | I flew them honolulu to sfo this morning (or last night, I am not really sure what day it is) | 00:47 |
| pleia2 | on united | 00:48 |
| pleia2 | unattentive staff, grumpy counter people | 00:48 |
| philipballew | But they still make money because they go everywhere. | 00:49 |
| philipballew | They fly into small towns, and big towns. | 00:50 |
| pleia2 | sfo is a united hub, so I end up on them annoyingly frequently | 00:50 |
| pleia2 | but usairways is moving to oneworld with the merger, so I won't anymore after march | 00:51 |
| philipballew | are you going to stay with them now though? | 00:51 |
| philipballew | with us air going to American? | 00:51 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 00:51 |
| pleia2 | I was going to switch to united, but it turns out usairways is going to keep some of their international partnerships (which is really the important thing for me) | 00:52 |

| darthrobot` | Title: [US Airways | Codeshare partners] | 00:52 |
| philipballew | also going through Sky Harbor all the time is what sells it to you. | 00:52 |
| pleia2 | no more Lufthansa, which makes me sad :\ | 00:53 |
| * philipballew has never left north America... | 00:53 | |
| * philipballew does however leave the country three times a week as he can see the border from his house. | 00:53 | |
| pleia2 | I'd never even left the country until 2008 (I was 27) | 00:54 |
| pleia2 | went to canada! | 00:54 |
| pleia2 | then in 2009 I went to england, and the rest is history ;) | 00:54 |
| philipballew | pleia2, your passport must look cool. | 00:55 |
| pleia2 | it'll look empty soon (name change) | 00:55 |
| philipballew | Ah, i hear marriage can do that. | 00:56 |
| philipballew | I got a new passport a few months ago, but I use a passport card for most of my travels across the border. | 00:56 |
| nhaines | pleia2: I believe you can submit your old passport and get the pages transferred! | 01:39 |

| pleia2 | philipballew: care to fill us in on any updates? | 03:02 |
| philipballew | We are still looking for any volunteers who want to help. | 03:03 |
| pleia2 | my main conference talk was accepted (yay!) so I'll be coming and speaking at ubucon too | 03:03 |
| * rww added himself to the volunteer list | 03:03 | |
| pleia2 | philipballew: any news on booth number/placement? | 03:03 |
| philipballew | I am also this week going to call Ema at System76 to see if they can bring an extra laptop or two for us to demo. | 03:03 |
| pleia2 | nice | 03:03 |
| philipballew | pleia2, not yet, but we should soon. | 03:03 |
| philipballew | no matter what, we will get it. | 03:03 |
| philipballew | so not much to worry about there. | 03:04 |
| pleia2 | rww: think I can put a box of booth goodies in your car? :) | 03:04 |
| rww | pleia2: yep, that should be fine | 03:04 |
| pleia2 | awesome | 03:04 |
| philipballew | I have a banner here and I am I am getting a conference pack. | 03:04 |
| rww | I'll probably be taking 2 or 3 computers down with me too | 03:04 |
| philipballew | I got Canonical to send us Nexas's to demo | 03:04 |
| pleia2 | wow, nice | 03:04 |
| philipballew | they arrived from the uk not long ago | 03:04 |
| pleia2 | rww: cool | 03:04 |
| philipballew | all work and I will go over them with people. | 03:05 |
| * pleia2 nods | 03:05 | |
| rww | sweet | 03:05 |
| philipballew | I am gonna see if we have any other stuff we should be handing out that is not in the normal conference pack as well. | 03:05 |
| philipballew | be in Juju or anything else. | 03:05 |
| pleia2 | great | 03:06 |
| philipballew | for sure. | 03:06 |
| pleia2 | I'm trying to convince a couple projects to get their Ubuntu flyers done in time for us to print some for scale, we'll see | 03:06 |
| philipballew | pleia2, perfect. I think that if everybody working the Ubuntu booth would be wearing some sort of Ubuntu apparel that would also be good. | 03:07 |
| eps | Do we want candy again (if not, what would take its place)? | 03:07 |
| pleia2 | eps: I think so | 03:08 |
| pleia2 | I shall bring the dishes | 03:08 |
| eps | Chocolate, not chocolate, loose, individually wrapped? | 03:08 |
| pleia2 | the individually wrapped thing was good, scale flu considering :) | 03:09 |
| pleia2 | no preference candy-wise though, I like candy, I like chocolate | 03:10 |
| philipballew | Some hand sanitizer for the booth for people who want to shake hands? | 03:10 |
| pleia2 | yeah, I think that's on the list | 03:10 |
| philipballew | right | 03:10 |
| pleia2 | (no one signed up to bring it yet though) | 03:10 |
| eps | Don't look at me; TSA won't let me take that on the plane. | 03:10 |
| pleia2 | I might see if I have the one from last year ;) | 03:11 |
| eps | Does it have an expiration date? | 03:11 |
| pleia2 | hopefully richard will have the ubucon site up soon too, I emailed him last week to offer some assistance | 03:11 |
| pleia2 | yeah, but I think it's a few years out | 03:11 |
| philipballew | I also got cd's | 03:11 |
| philipballew | about 200 desktop and server for 12.04 | 03:11 |
| pleia2 | 12.04? | 03:11 |
| * pleia2 nods | 03:12 | |
| philipballew | they are trying to get rid of them I think. | 03:12 |
| pleia2 | didn't you read nhaines' blog post? ;) | 03:12 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 03:12 |
| philipballew | I glanced. :) | 03:12 |
| eps | Are they original 12.04 or a recent point release? | 03:12 |
| pleia2 | I don't think they press point releases | 03:12 |
| eps | Which means no hardware enablement stack. :-( | 03:13 |
| philipballew | eps, People do not care what release it is. They want an official CD because it says Ubuntu on it. | 03:13 |
| philipballew | People already are gonna be running Ubuntu. | 03:13 |
| philipballew | few people try Ubuntu for the first time because they got a CD from a linux show. | 03:14 |
| philipballew | but that is just what I would think. | 03:14 |
| holstein | yeah.. too many variables | 03:14 |
| eps | That's not my attitude when I visit the Fedora booth. | 03:14 |
| holstein | best case, they put it in in windows and read some autorun thing | 03:14 |
| philipballew | eps, Fedora does flash drives now iirc. | 03:15 |
| holstein | i just wanted a real one | 03:15 |
| philipballew | holstein, I can see that. | 03:15 |
| eps | Flash drives cost $$$. CD/DVD media is cheap. | 03:15 |
| holstein | i got a few 9.10 server cd's from akgraner back in the day.. i was stoked :) | 03:15 |
| holstein | then, i get a stack of 12.04 desktop ones i gave out | 03:16 |
| philipballew | eps, si amigo. | 03:16 |
| philipballew | holstein, I think the peple who take them from a linux event might give them out to their friends | 03:16 |
| holstein | yeah, i mean, we already have access. or have already used them | 03:17 |
| pleia2 | anyway, 12.04 is what we have, we don't really have the resources to change that | 03:17 |
| philipballew | yeah, true. | 03:17 |
| holstein | i think 12.04 is a good call | 03:17 |
| holstein | its not a bad call | 03:17 |
| pleia2 | we'll just explain that it's from 2012 and they can directly upgrade to 14.04 when it comes out in april | 03:17 |
| philipballew | true. I think that if someone wants to install a dofferent version they can install their own, and we can even show them how. | 03:17 |
| pleia2 | yeah | 03:17 |
| rww | could always offer to burn 13.10 to USB stick, i think we've done that before | 03:17 |
| rww | or 12.04.whateveritis | 03:18 |
| philipballew | rww, I could bring a flash drive with all the iso's on it they can barrow if they want to copy it. | 03:18 |
| pleia2 | yeah, someone bringing isos would be good | 03:18 |
| eps | 12.04.4 LTS by then | 03:18 |
| pleia2 | philipballew: great | 03:18 |
| holstein | i have a user in my LUG trying to get with me to "update her system".. says she cant do wifi/skype/libreoffic.. someone else in the LUG set her up with a non-lts release, and im suspicous that that is the issue | 03:18 |
| pleia2 | philipballew: want to add that to the wiki | 03:18 |
| rww | philipballew: or just stick it in the computer i will be bringing and dd | 03:18 |
| pleia2 | ? | 03:18 |
| rww | philipballew: but yeah | 03:18 |
| rww | i'll probably have some too | 03:18 |
| pleia2 | nice | 03:18 |
| philipballew | pleia2, sure | 03:18 |
| pleia2 | ok, anything else re: scale? | 03:18 |
| eps | Just the usual request ... if any locals have, e.g., Carl's Jr. coupons to bring them | 03:19 |

| pleia2 | jyo sent out the ballot a few days ago | 03:20 |
| pleia2 | if you're in the https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-california team and have a public email address but don't have a ballot, contact him :) | 03:21 |
| darthrobot` | Title: [Ubuntu California in Launchpad] | 03:21 |
| eps | I don't believe I ever received a ballot, but given that there appear to be exactly three candidates for three positions, it's pretty much a foregone conclusion? | 03:21 |
| pleia2 | ..of course it's a vote of 3 people for 3 spots, but it's good for the team to get used to this process | 03:21 |
| rww | stupid question: why are we having an election to put 3... oh, okay | 03:21 |
| pleia2 | eps: you don't have a public email address on launchpad | 03:22 |
| philipballew | rww, because Elections are all the rage these days. | 03:22 |
| eps | pleia2: I'm not convinced that's a bad thing. | 03:22 |
| pleia2 | eps: sure, just means we don't have a way to send you a ballot | 03:23 |
| pleia2 | if you want one, just show jyo your launchpad page and give him your address :) | 03:23 |
| pleia2 | the poll will close tomorrow | 03:24 |
| pleia2 | #topic Any other business | 03:24 |
| pleia2 | anything else before we wrap up for the evening? | 03:24 |
| holstein | sorry folks.. i didnt realize you were having a meeting when i was chattin earlier.. cheers! | 03:24 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 03:25 |

| rww | pleia2: how big is box o' scale stuff? | 03:27 |
| rww | BARTable size, or...? | 03:27 |
| pleia2 | rww: bartable | 03:27 |
| pleia2 | philipballew has a banner+tablecloth down south now, so no need to bring the ones I have here for once | 03:27 |
| rww | will grab it wednesday then, if it'll be ready by then | 03:27 |
| rww | if not we can figure something else out | 03:27 |
| pleia2 | sure, I'll put it together before wednesday :) | 03:27 |

| eps | There's a Subway near you. ;-) | 03:31 |
| philipballew | I have eaten at the Subway. | 03:32 |
| philipballew | Finding cheap food in a big city can be hard sometimes. | 03:32 |
| philipballew | not as hard as grocery shopping though sometimes. | 03:33 |
