| balloons | yummu | 00:23 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: no, just IRC | 00:23 |
| balloons | late dinner for me :-) | 00:23 |
| mhall119 | hey balloons | 00:23 |
| mhall119 | alright, I'll go ahead and kick this off, but we'll probably end up takingit all to the mailinglist | 00:24 |

| Michelle_ | oh, I should pay attention. | 00:25 |
| mhall119 | #topic Ubuntu 14.04 Release Party | 00:25 |
| mhall119 | so we're just over a month away from the release of Ubuntu 14.04 \o/ | 00:25 |
| mhall119 | we haven't had a release party in years | 00:25 |
| Nothing_Much | woo! | 00:25 |
| Michelle_ | ::cough:: and Qimo ::cough:: | 00:25 |
| mhall119 | it's time to fix that | 00:25 |
| mhall119 | we were thinking about finding a space in Orlando to host a proper, team-wide party | 00:26 |
| Nothing_Much | Orlando sounds nice | 00:26 |
| Michelle_ | I'd like to try and get a rough estimate of how many we might actually have show up for a party | 00:27 |
| Michelle_ | supposing we host in orlando somewhere. | 00:27 |
| Michelle_ | release day is April 17th, and so I'm looking at a release party either April 19th, or the 26th | 00:29 |
| Nothing_Much | This is gonna be a fairly big release, so I'm enthusiastic | 00:29 |
| mhall119 | I'm going to bring my Nexus 4 and 2012 Nexus 7 with Ubuntu on both if people want to try them out first-hand | 00:29 |
| Nothing_Much | I think maybe the 26th would be good (for me at least, unsure about anybody else) | 00:29 |
| Michelle_ | we're also hoping to debut at least a beta of Qimo 3.0, as well. | 00:29 |
| mhall119 | that too | 00:29 |
| Michelle_ | I'm also inclined to go with the 26th, out of personal preference. | 00:30 |
| balloons | I would show up, provided it's not further away than Orlando, should be easy. I'll note I would rather see it in a smaller city on the coast, but I'm not an Orlando fan, so :-) | 00:30 |
| mhall119 | #subtopic Qimo 3.0 is going to happen, based on Ubuntu 14.04 | 00:30 |
| mhall119 | balloons: I'm not either, but it's a pretty central place | 00:30 |
| balloons | yes, can't argue much with that | 00:30 |
| mhall119 | Tampa is further for itnet7 | 00:30 |
| mhall119 | I'm not sure it makes a difference to the Miami guys | 00:31 |
| balloons | I mean like jupiter fl or melbourne or something | 00:31 |
| mhall119 | that's quite a bit further for you though isn't it? | 00:31 |
| balloons | which is technically farther for me yes | 00:31 |
| mhall119 | and you'd have to go through Orlando to get there | 00:31 |
| balloons | I can avoid it :-) but anyways | 00:32 |
| Michelle_ | balloons: maybe we can move things around the state for the next party. | 00:32 |
| balloons | 19th or 26th I think works.. let me verify | 00:32 |
| mhall119 | balloons: would the Kissimmee area be easier for you? | 00:32 |
| Michelle_ | mhall119: I was leaning more Kissimmee-area than DT Orlando. | 00:32 |
| Michelle_ | probably going to be easier to find hosting space. | 00:32 |
| * mhall119 would prefer that | 00:32 | |
| balloons | as far as easier? Probably Deland is the easiest suburb of Orlando for me | 00:33 |
| balloons | everything else is probably the same.. I would be coming from the NW | 00:33 |
| balloons | the host however gets to decide :-) One of the nice things about coordinating | 00:34 |
| Michelle_ | Deland might be a reasonable option too. I'll look around and see what I can find - considering the time crunch. | 00:34 |
| Nothing_Much | oh goodness, Kissimmee is an hour away from Deltona | 00:34 |
| Michelle_ | Nothing_Much: Doable, or no? | 00:34 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: yeah, but only like 30 miles :) | 00:34 |
| mhall119 | it's going through Orlando in I4 that takes so long | 00:35 |
| Nothing_Much | not where I'm from, to kissimmee is 53.9 miles | 00:35 |
| Nothing_Much | away | 00:35 |
| mhall119 | ok, we'll start looking for venue options | 00:36 |
| mhall119 | and email the team with what we find | 00:36 |
| Michelle_ | I'll send out some options when I have some on hand. | 00:36 |
| Nothing_Much | so not very doable for me if it takes an hour for that | 00:36 |
| Nothing_Much | an hour to get there* | 00:36 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: but east-side of Orlando would be do-able for you? | 00:36 |
| mhall119 | Deland area? | 00:36 |
| Michelle_ | Can we get a poll set up, mhall119 ? | 00:36 |
| Michelle_ | survey monkey or something? | 00:37 |
| mhall119 | yeah, as long as people respond quickly | 00:37 |
| Michelle_ | Can you make that a todo? | 00:37 |
| mhall119 | sure, what cities do we want on there? | 00:37 |
| Nothing_Much | Deland would be best for me, takes me about 15-20 min to get there | 00:37 |
| Nothing_Much | but orlando would be good too, looks like 36 minutes | 00:38 |
| Michelle_ | I'll focus on the Deland/east Orlando area, and see what I can come up with. | 00:38 |
| mhall119 | ok | 00:38 |
| mhall119 | any other questions/suggestions on release party? | 00:39 |
| Michelle_ | wish govatent was here tonight. | 00:39 |
| mhall119 | me too, and itnet7 | 00:39 |
| mhall119 | but I'll email the list so they see | 00:39 |
| Michelle_ | OK, so watch your mailing list, folks. | 00:39 |
| mhall119 | aside from me bringing a phone and tablet running Ubuntu, anything we should plan on *doing* during the event? | 00:39 |
| Michelle_ | eat? | 00:40 |
| Michelle_ | priorities, you know | 00:40 |
| balloons | eat is a given of course :-) | 00:40 |
| balloons | depends if folks want something like informal talks? or perhaps games are more fun? | 00:41 |
| Michelle_ | heh, game night. ;) | 00:41 |
| mhall119 | do we want a venue where we can buy food, or one where we can bring in pizzas or something? | 00:41 |
| Michelle_ | mhall119: depends on what I can get for community funding. I'd rather bring in, if possible. | 00:41 |
| Michelle_ | Puts less stress on budgets for folks. | 00:42 |
| Michelle_ | The other alternative would be to have people meet in Orlando and carpool into our house, mhall119, and host here. | 00:43 |
| mhall119 | ok, I'm going to setup an event without a venue for now, so we cna see how many people want to attend | 00:43 |
| balloons | panera lets you book private rooms for free I believe, could be an option. Not sure what other types of places you were thinking | 00:44 |
| Michelle_ | balloons: yeah, they're on my list to look at. | 00:45 |
| Michelle_ | ok, mhall119, let's start with this, and go from there. | 00:45 |
| mhall119 | alright, here's the event: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-us-florida/2737-ubuntu-1404-release-party/ | 00:46 |
| Nothing_Much | what game? | 00:46 |
| Nothing_Much | o.o | 00:46 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: something child-friendly, I have a fun card game though | 00:46 |
| mhall119 | balloons: I've got that "We didn't play test this at all" game that popey had at our sprint | 00:46 |
| Nothing_Much | oh I thought you meant a sorta cross platform game | 00:46 |
| Nothing_Much | because I have the perfect one | 00:46 |
| Nothing_Much | which is really good for LAN games | 00:46 |
| Michelle_ | which one, Nothing_Much ? | 00:46 |
| Nothing_Much | Bitfighter, cross platform and Linux friendly | 00:47 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: getting a working LAN at a venue might be too difficult | 00:47 |
| Nothing_Much | and child friendly | 00:47 |
| Nothing_Much | oh okay | 00:47 |
| Michelle_ | If I can swing it, I wouldn't be opposed, but it'll depend on getting a LAN. | 00:47 |
| balloons | mhall119, that could be quite fun. I have some german style board games, and some more interesting stuff as well. I think I'd rather keep it light, cards games, etc | 00:47 |
| Nothing_Much | ohh, physical games was what you were talking about | 00:48 |
| Nothing_Much | my bad | 00:48 |
| mhall119 | yeah, there's not even a guarantee we'll have power outlets, depending on the venue | 00:48 |
| Michelle_ | mhall119: I can get "We didn't play test this either" to go with it, too. | 00:48 |
| mhall119 | ok, I'll email the list with the location options and the link to the event page | 00:49 |
| Nothing_Much | don't libraries have computers though? | 00:49 |
| mhall119 | if you guys can all register at http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-us-florida/2737-ubuntu-1404-release-party/ so we can start getting an idea of how many people we need to accomodate | 00:49 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: yeah, but what we cna do with them is going to be restricted | 00:49 |
| mhall119 | when we've had meetups at libraries before, we got a separate room without computers | 00:49 |
| mhall119 | you can invite/bring along people from outside the team too | 00:50 |
| mhall119 | anybody who might be interested in attending an Ubuntu release party | 00:50 |
| balloons | I don't have a gaming capable laptop, plus it's nice to be off the pc :-) | 00:50 |
| Nothing_Much | There's a portable release you can put on a USB drive on Windows and I *think* Linux as well | 00:50 |
| Michelle_ | Let's sort that out when we get some sort of idea of venue, and go from there. :) | 00:51 |
| Nothing_Much | mhall119: How do I say that I'm attending? | 00:51 |
| Nothing_Much | Michelle_: sure | 00:51 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: there should be a "Register" button on the right side of the page | 00:51 |
| Nothing_Much | ah I see it | 00:52 |
| mhall119 | ok, anything more on the topic of release parties? | 00:53 |
| Nothing_Much | enthusiasm! | 00:53 |
| mhall119 | +1 :) | 00:54 |
| mhall119 | #topic App Developer Schools | 00:54 |
| mhall119 | so we at Canonical have been working hard to build up our app development platform | 00:54 |
| mhall119 | part of that is teaching how to write apps for Ubuntu phone and desktop | 00:54 |
| mhall119 | we've created a "course" that can be taught either in person or online, and if anybody on the team is interested I'd be happy to lead one for us | 00:55 |
| mhall119 | http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/global/2677/ has information about what it is | 00:55 |
| mhall119 | since it can be done online, I can do it anytime people are available, we don't need a physical meetup | 00:56 |
| mhall119 | I might even be able to talk balloons into teaching how to write tests for apps :) | 00:56 |
| Nothing_Much | whoa, cool | 00:56 |
| Nothing_Much | though I'm not a developer so I can't really teach that kind of stuff | 00:57 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: I would be the one teaching | 00:58 |
| mhall119 | if there is interest from anyone in the team in learning it | 00:58 |
| Nothing_Much | oh! | 00:59 |
| Nothing_Much | what kind of development stuff is it? does it work well for newbies wanting to program or do you have to have some sort of experience? | 00:59 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: it should be newbie friendly | 01:00 |
| mhall119 | if it's not, our course material needs to be improved :) | 01:00 |
| mhall119 | part of this would be me test-driving the material before we get other loco teams to start using it | 01:00 |
| Nothing_Much | is that during the party or a course during the summer? | 01:01 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: separate from the party | 01:01 |
| mhall119 | it would be a one-day thing, maybe a couple of hours at most | 01:01 |
| Nothing_Much | ohh, okay so that means it's once per year or is that like a test run to see how well it catches on or something? | 01:02 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: it can be anytime, as many times as people want | 01:02 |
| balloons | I imagine we could run it again, but I'm guessing you want to do it once this cycle and see how it goes? | 01:02 |
| mhall119 | yeah, ultimately we want to get a lot of instructors all over the world working with this material | 01:03 |
| mhall119 | but for our team, specifically, I can run one as often as there's a desire for one | 01:03 |
| Nothing_Much | I'm looking at the slideshow, looks like I need an Ubuntu Phone.. | 01:04 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: you don't necessarily, apps will run on the Ubuntu desktop, and we have a phone emulator too | 01:04 |
| Nothing_Much | oh right | 01:04 |
| Nothing_Much | duh | 01:04 |
| Nothing_Much | lol | 01:04 |
| Nothing_Much | so the goal is to get schools to pick this up? | 01:05 |
| mhall119 | no, just local enthusiasts | 01:05 |
| Nothing_Much | ohh, sorry about the confusion | 01:06 |
| mhall119 | it's okay | 01:06 |
| mhall119 | we can discuss this more on the mailing list | 01:06 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: you should join this team: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-florida | 01:07 |
| mhall119 | that way you get those emails | 01:07 |
| mhall119 | #action mhall119 to email the team list about the release party and app dev schools | 01:07 |

| mhall119 | balloons: indeed, we haven't had a meetup in a long time | 01:14 |
| Michelle_ | woo! | 01:14 |
| balloons | night everyone | 01:15 |
| Nothing_Much | good night! | 01:15 |
| Nothing_Much | I'm hoping I can make it | 01:15 |
| Nothing_Much | so first we need to figure out where the party's gonna be hosted right? | 01:15 |
| Michelle_ | Yep, I'll email the mailing list, so make sure you're signed up for that. | 01:17 |
| Nothing_Much | I need to figure out how mailing lists work.. | 01:17 |
| Nothing_Much | But I logged in | 01:18 |
| Nothing_Much | to the launchpad thing | 01:19 |
| Michelle_ | mhall119: can you help Nothing_Much get signed up? | 01:19 |
| Michelle_ | <--ignoramus here. | 01:19 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: if you join https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-us-florida it should add you to the mailing list automatically | 01:20 |
| Nothing_Much | I joined that | 01:22 |
| Nothing_Much | okay so basically I just get messages from those? | 01:23 |
| Nothing_Much | how do I send messages? | 01:23 |
| Nothing_Much | through the email? | 01:24 |
| mhall119 | Nothing_Much: ah, my mistake, it's not via launchpad it's https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-us-fl | 01:26 |
| mhall119 | you can subscribe to the mailing list there | 01:27 |
| Nothing_Much | oh okay | 01:29 |
| Michelle_ | Alright, I'm out, yo. Everyone have a good night, and I'll touch base with everyone once we've got party details a little closer to hammered out. | 01:36 |
| Michelle_ | And if you don't already, go ahead and like the team's Facebook page, too, as I keep it updated as best I can. https://www.facebook.com/ubuntuflorida | 01:36 |
| itnet7 | mhall119: hey there! | 02:14 |
| * balloons waves to itnet7 | 02:14 | |
| itnet7 | Hey balloons ! How are you? | 02:14 |
| balloons | cleaning the house atm, just dropped by the pc to check something and saw your arrival :-) | 02:15 |
| itnet7 | sweet | 02:15 |
| balloons | anyways, I hope you can come to the release party, it would be nice to see you again | 02:15 |
| itnet7 | I am for sure going to do my best to be there | 02:16 |
| balloons | excellent, with that, back to cleaning for me | 02:16 |
| itnet7 | Take care! | 02:16 |
| itnet7 | Well I'll be back later | 02:17 |
| DammitJim | man, next time I should put my irc on bbl | 12:33 |
| DammitJim | looks like there was a productive meeting last night | 12:33 |
| DammitJim | what does one call a server that sits between production and test | 18:44 |
| DammitJim | its purpose is to hold files that are moved from one environment to it and then fetched by the other | 18:44 |
| DammitJim | I guess it's like a staging server | 18:44 |
| DammitJim | Acheron | 18:47 |
| mhall119 | DammitJim: staging is what I usually call it | 19:56 |
| mhall119 | or "production-like environment" | 19:57 |
| DammitJim | I ended up calling it Charon | 20:36 |
| DammitJim | I was just informed that this server won't hold any files, but will be the one moving stuff from one machine to another | 20:36 |
| DammitJim | Charon was the guy that took people from one side to the other of the river in the underworld :D | 20:36 |
| mhall119 | heh, I like it | 21:09 |
