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