[11:51] <Harsh> hi
[11:52] <Harsh> I want to use ubuntu for Thin Client 
[11:52] <Harsh> so is there any special edition for it 
[11:52] <Harsh> in ubuntu 
[15:32] <belkinsa> Please ask in #ubuntu, it's our support channel.
[18:13] <belkinsa> jose, just a thought, you think that organizing a global release party(ies) over the Hangouts on Air as the Ubuntu On Air account  would be a be better that a team doing one since the Canada LoCO failed at doing it (and also forgetting the others in the Hangout)?
[18:14] <jose> belkinsa: that's what I'm planning on doing for 14.10
[18:14] <jose> needs scheduling, though
[18:14] <belkinsa> Ah.
[18:14] <belkinsa> And maybe knowing what to do for one.
[18:14] <jose> yep
[18:15]  * belkinsa has a urge to help!
[18:19] <jose> we still have plenty of time :)
[18:19] <jose> being a holiday here makes it difficult for me to be busy, even though I'm trying to
[18:20] <BobJonkman1> Hi all: I'm sorry the Hangout went badly.
[18:20] <belkinsa> I know.  And there is more important stuff to deal with.
[18:20] <belkinsa> It's cool, BobJonkman1.  It was first run type of thing.
[18:21] <jose> BobJonkman1: it was pretty good for something improvised at uonair.com :)
[18:21] <BobJonkman1> Things I learned: There needs to be a Hangout producer who is on a reliable Internet connection 
[18:21] <belkinsa> I think this Hangouts thing is still new all of us.
[18:21] <BobJonkman1> I didn't realize that when the organizer lost the Hangout connection the whole thing would shut down.
[18:21] <belkinsa> Same.
[18:22] <belkinsa> Oh, jose: has jono set a date for the brainstorm session yet?
[18:22] <BobJonkman1> Another thing I learned: There needs to be an organized activity. People came into the Hangout and just stared. Not much of a party.
[18:22] <belkinsa> For the vUDS.
[18:22] <jose> belkinsa: not yet
[18:22] <belkinsa> BobJonkman1, well, there was no topics to talk about.
[18:22] <jose> BobJonkman1: it's some stuff we've all been learning in the way :)
[18:23] <BobJonkman1> After I came home I had a nice conversation with Artur F. , but it was just the two of us.
[18:23] <belkinsa> Also not having a mic that has the "press-to talk thing".
[18:23] <jose> I learnt that I have to have an organized and well-lit background, my first ubuntu on air session my background was terrible
[18:24] <BobJonkman1> Another thing I learned: Can't have two computers in the same location because one computer
[18:24] <BobJonkman1> One computer's sound feeds back into the other computer.
[18:24] <jose> well, you technically can, just mute one of the computers and get video input from both, but audio from just one
[18:24] <BobJonkman1> So, in a large party environment it's best to have a separate camera and a good mic on one computer
[18:25] <belkinsa> Or a phone with backfacing cam
[18:25] <BobJonkman1> jose: That doesn't work; Hangout won't focus on you if your mic is muted.
[18:25] <jose> ooooh, that's right!
[18:26] <belkinsa> Carp.
[18:26] <belkinsa> Maybe bring in a USB web cam?
[18:26] <BobJonkman1> And it only suppresses the sound for your own connection, so the other computer still outputs the sound from the first, still causing feedbac
[18:27] <BobJonkman1> belkinsa: I did have another webcam with me, worked successfully (but after Jeff lost the connection and the Hangout had closed)
[18:27] <belkinsa> Oh.
[18:29] <BobJonkman1> But, in spite of everything, I'd like to try a Virtual Release Party again for 14.10
[18:30] <belkinsa> I would too but I think mutliple ones through out the day would work.
[18:30] <belkinsa> Different hosts though/
[18:31] <jose> that may work, the problem is that the ubuntu on air team is not that big
[18:32] <jose> we'll have to figure out how to do it
[18:32] <belkinsa> Maybe import some help for speakers?
[18:32] <jose> or if I have to stay up for 24h with a box of monster next to me
[18:32] <jose> may be, but we'll see how the situation develops
[18:32] <belkinsa> lol
[18:32] <belkinsa> Sure, that works.
[18:33] <BobJonkman1> Multiple hour-long hangouts will also be easier to watch afterwards
[18:33] <belkinsa> Yes.
