[20:40] <BobJonkman1> ping azend
[20:49] <BobJonkman1> azend, can you check out the Open Guelph Hackathon page? Maybe add it to the http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/2703/
[20:50]  * BobJonkman1 feels lonely in a Global Event with no other groups...
[20:50] <BobJonkman1> Open Guelph Hackathon: http://guelph.ca/event/open-guelph-hackathon/
[20:52] <BobJonkman1> And if genii or aruna come back, maybe do the same for the Toronto Open Data Hackathon http://wiki.opendataday.org/Toronto
[20:56] <willwh> oooooooooooooooooooooooh
[21:03] <BobJonkman1> Hi willwh!
[21:03] <BobJonkman1> You're in Ottawa, aren't you?
[21:05] <BobJonkman1> MylesBraithwaite: Are you doing anything for the Toronto Open Data Day ?
[21:07] <willwh> BobJonkman1: no siree, I'm Victoria
[21:07] <willwh> :D
[21:07] <BobJonkman1> Oh! even better, International Open Data Day started on your doorstep!
[21:07] <BobJonkman1> Vancouver, but how close is that?
[21:08] <BobJonkman1> http://wiki.opendataday.org/Vancouver,_BC
[21:08] <willwh> it's a ferry ride away
[21:08] <willwh> or a 12min flight
[21:09] <BobJonkman1> Flight?!? Seems extravagant
[21:10] <willwh> it is rather
[21:10] <willwh> but it sure beats 1.5 hours on the ferry
[21:10] <willwh> after you've done it a few times
[21:10] <BobJonkman1> I've only been on 20min ferry rides, so that's my frame of reference
[21:11] <BobJonkman1> Although it's a 1.5 hour ferry ride from Tobermory to South Baymouth.  Did that once or twice
[21:11] <BobJonkman1> Expensive too
[21:13] <willwh> yeah - getting to vancouver isn't terribly cheap
[21:13] <willwh> I really miss living in the UK ;p
[21:15] <BobJonkman1> I've never been to the UK. Would like to do that someday
[22:35] <azend> BobJonkman1: I've actually known about it for a while but never thought to mention it :P
[23:08] <BobJonkman1> azend: Are you going to the Guelph Open Data Hackathon?
[23:08] <azend> I'm thinking about it
[23:08] <azend> the data currently out there kinda sucks
[23:09] <azend> many of their data sets have been out for years now and are completely inaccurate
[23:09] <BobJonkman1> So pop an event on the LoCo portal. You can be the token Ubuntu-ca rep
[23:09] <BobJonkman1> Because prizes!
[23:10] <BobJonkman1> I wish we still had give-away disks.
[23:11] <BobJonkman1> I just read the summary of the LoCo Council's survey; only 47 teams across the globe are eligible for disks for 14.04. Hope we're one of them

[23:12] <BobJonkman1> That's by skellat, or @alpacaherder on some online services
