elachecheYoBoY, just asking :p13:03
YoBoYelacheche, ML is always better to contact more people, not every loco contacts are on IRC. But if you have question on locoteams or on the tasks of a loco contact, fell free to ask here :)13:59
elachecheYoBoY, Yeah, that's exactly why I'm asking :) What are the tasks of a LoCo Contact14:04
YoBoYfirst task is to make the link between the lococouncil/ubuntu communities/… and your locoteam14:06
elachecheGood.. What else?14:08
YoBoYwell you can also stay informed about all the others teams/ubuntu communities/… following their ML/blogs/… and keep your team well informed about what's appening in the ubuntu universe14:10
YoBoYbut wait… I think there is a page somewhere… :p14:10
YoBoYfound it : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamContact14:11
elachecheGreat YoBoY :) :D Wiki bookmarked to read later :) Merci bien mon ami :)14:11
YoBoYde rien :)14:12
elachecheYoBoY, BTW I'm ufr member too → I'm francophone :p ;)14:13
YoBoYyes you are :) n'hésite pas à t'investir dans notre loco également ;)14:14
YoBoYLike I use to say, most of the admins of the french ressources are from France, but that's just a big bug :D14:15
elachecheLoooL :D I'm helping support francophone users ;) and the Anglophone and Arabic users too ::) ;)14:17
YoBoYI have no time now to do support :( only on IRL events.14:21
elachecheI have no time to do Technical things like devs or bug triaging or documentation.. So the best way is to support users IRL and Internet, and translate some strings when I miss that14:24
commandolineHi, does anyone know if the form at https://forms.canonical.com/lococd/ is currently meant for pre-requests for 14.04 cd's, or would we still get 12.04 cd's when it's filled in (meaning we'd have to wait until after the release, we=the ubuntu nl loco team)14:53
commandoline? Thanks in advance.14:53

BobJonkman1YoBoY, elacheche: I find it useful every few months to send a broadcast message to the membership through the Launchpad's "Contact this team's members". There continue to be people who are members of the Launchpad team, but don't subscribe to the mailing lsit19:18
YoBoYBobJonkman1, for your locoteam ?19:34
BobJonkman1I'm in Canada. 19:34
BobJonkman1in Elmira, province of Ontario (very close to Waterloo, Ontario)19:34
BobJonkman1When I log in to Launchpad for http://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-ca I see a link for "Contact this team's members"19:35
BobJonkman1But when I look at another LoCo team's page I see "Contact this team's admins"19:36
BobJonkman1But mostly I contact the Ubuntu-ca team through the Ubuntu-ca mailing list19:37
BobJonkman1We also have some local chapters like https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-waterloo-region which each have their own mailing lists.19:37
BobJonkman1When I send a broadcast message I'll send it to both the national list and the individual chapters because there are people who are subscribed only to the local chapter list19:38
BobJonkman1And then we have and Ubuntu Forum for Canada too. I try to remember to include that, but I often forget to include it. It doesn't seem well used, and I don't know if I forget about it because it isn't well used, or if it isn't well-used because I forget to post announcements to it :(19:40
BobJonkman1http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=39519:40
YoBoYyes, I do that, use some ML depending on the subject, to contact more people who can be interrested19:40
YoBoYand I spam also social networks ^^"19:41
BobJonkman1Recently we've tried to revive our presence on Google Plus. I'm not a fan of the commercial social networks.19:41
YoBoYyes, I'm not a fan too, but it's a tool, and we have to go where users/future users are19:42
BobJonkman1I want to get some other members who are frequent users of things like Facebook to keep an Ubuntu-ca presence there, but either I haven't found those people or there just isn't interest in our membership to be on those commercial services.19:43
BobJonkman1There's also a Discourse area. I haven't used it at all, but Ubuntu now has a separate area on it, and each LoCo can maintain a page. There will be other people on this channel that know more about Discourse19:44
BobJonkman1I maintain !Ubuntuca in the !Fediverse (what used to be Identi.ca and Status.Net before that switched to Pump.io software)19:45
YoBoYwe also have a discourse area, but it's not translated… so I don't use it (and will not promote it)19:45
BobJonkman1http://sn.jonkman.ca/group/ubuntuca19:45
BobJonkman1I don't think we have an Ubuntuca on Twitter, but all my !Fediverse messages go there, so the !Ubuntuca group messages show up as #Ubuntuca hastags. There's an @UbuntuWaterloo Twitter account maintained by Darcy (the other Ubuntu-ca contact)19:47
YoBoYfinding people to take charge of all these tools is a big challenge for every locoteam :)19:49
BobJonkman1The LoCoCouncil was really helpful. Ubuntu-ca had a brainstorming meeting at which LoCo contacts and Council members from all over the world gave us help and advice.  So far, the Video chat meetings  using Google Plus Hangouts is an idea that has been embraced.19:54
BobJonkman1This is the meeting summary, with links to the IRC logs, &c : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CanadianTeam/Meetings/2013/2013-11-2819:56
