| BobJonkman | belkinsa: Sorry, wasn't paying attention. Pong. | 00:35 |
|---|---|---|
| belkinsa | It's cool. That's what IRC is for. ;) Anyways, how was the meeting? | 00:36 |
| BobJonkman | Our video chat was remarkably successful | 00:38 |
| BobJonkman | Seems Hangouts only allow 10 people to participate at a time, and we had a lineup of people wanting in | 00:38 |
| BobJonkman | Meeting summary at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2014/2014-01-23#Meeting_summary | 00:40 |
| belkinsa | Wow! | 00:40 |
| BobJonkman | (with a link to the RecordMyDesktop capture of the first 2 1/2 minutes | 00:40 |
| BobJonkman | Next time one of us will set up Hangouts On Air, with allow 10 participants, but any number to view the stream. | 00:41 |
| BobJonkman | HangoutsOnAir will create a YouTube recording as well. | 00:41 |
| BobJonkman | Sadly, that means I have no justification to buy a larger hard drive | 00:41 |
| belkinsa | Heh. | 00:42 |
| belkinsa | Any bandwidth issues? | 00:43 |
| BobJonkman | Some people had scratchy sound, and some people blinked out to show only an avatar. But nobody dropped, and the software didn't lock from bandwidth issues | 00:44 |
| BobJonkman | So Google has done a better job on Hangouts than the WebRTC clients we tried | 00:44 |
| belkinsa | Because they are Google. | 00:44 |
| belkinsa | But then again, it's new technology, right? | 00:44 |
| BobJonkman | Still, I know we lost some participants because they want to remain Google-free (don't want to load the proprietary Hangouts plugin in their browser) | 00:45 |
| BobJonkman | And we lost at least one participant because she only has dialup, no broadband | 00:45 |
| belkinsa | I understand that. | 00:45 |
| belkinsa | But the hyibird of the two worked well, right? | 00:45 |
| belkinsa | Just like VUDS. | 00:45 |
| BobJonkman | I also feel a little put off by the proprietary SW requirements | 00:46 |
| belkinsa | SW/ | 00:46 |
| belkinsa | ?8 | 00:46 |
| belkinsa | ?* | 00:46 |
| BobJonkman | Software | 00:46 |
| belkinsa | Ah | 00:46 |
| belkinsa | Oh, jcastro (jorge) still wants to try out WebRTC. | 00:47 |
| BobJonkman | Well, we can hold another test. | 00:48 |
| BobJonkman | If I'm around I'll participate | 00:48 |
| belkinsa | Sure. | 00:48 |
| belkinsa | But I think it should be private. | 00:48 |
| belkinsa | Like what we did with genni | 00:49 |
| BobJonkman | I'd limit it to 3-4 participants, but make it open and public. First come, first served. That encourages people with different hardware to participate, and gets wider representation. | 00:50 |
| belkinsa | That can work but I think not at this stage since we haven't found a great client. Well, unless, it can be chatb.org. | 00:51 |
| BobJonkman | So that when the chat is finally opened to all there's less chance of dealing with combinations of hardware and software that don't work, but weren't tested. | 00:51 |
| BobJonkman | I think even chatb.org needs some more work. But I think it's the best of the lot that we've tried. | 00:52 |
| belkinsa | Yeah. Do you know if there is any contact information for the server of chatb | 00:53 |
| BobJonkman | Even though its performance isn't as good as Hangouts, it can be improved because it's open. | 00:53 |
| belkinsa | And Open is the way to go! | 00:53 |
| belkinsa | And this could be a community wide effort. | 00:53 |
| BobJonkman | Yes, jrgifford provided a link to a github repository, which should lead back to the contributors | 00:53 |
| belkinsa | Prefect | 00:53 |
| BobJonkman | But I don't have it at my fingertips. | 00:54 |
| BobJonkman | It was in one of the LoCo Contacts Mailing List messages, though | 00:54 |
| belkinsa | Alright. | 00:54 |
| belkinsa | I will work on a wiki page for this so this can be passed on within the community. | 00:54 |
| BobJonkman | Sorry, I've got to go. Probably be back in three or four hours | 00:54 |
| belkinsa | Alright, see you later. | 00:54 |
| BobJonkman | I had a look at your other Wiki page, but not in detail. | 00:55 |
| BobJonkman | Bye! | 00:55 |
| belkinsa | As in the user page? | 00:55 |
| belkinsa | jose, ping | 01:06 |
| jose | belkinsa: pong | 01:06 |
| belkinsa | Question regarding Open Week wiki pages. Will those be updated for the next one? | 01:06 |
| jose | belkinsa: they will, we're too far away from them | 01:07 |
| jose | let's wait a month or a bit more and I'll start working on them :) | 01:07 |
| belkinsa | Alright. | 01:08 |
