Unit193 | Geeeeez. Russ Allbery, who is a ctte member, doesn't even like Drivers Licenses as a form of identification, mainly just passports. I may be screwed after all. :/ | 22:44 |

belkinsa | Before I start, I believe we have some news from skellat. | 23:03 |
belkinsa | I'm turning it over to skellat for the news. | 23:04 |
skellat | My superiors at the Internal Revenue Service have informed me that my services are no longer required and that I will be placed on furlough as from the Close of Business on June 27th. I will be able to play a much more active role in the community's life during furlough. | 23:04 |
skellat | This will be especially the case as I won't be missing from 0530 to 1915 daily between work hours and round-trip commute to the work site after next Friday | 23:06 |
skellat | Back to you, belkinsa | 23:06 |
belkinsa | Alright. | 23:06 |
belkinsa | Beth Lynn Eicher one of the OLF organizers sent an e-mail to skellat, Unit193, jrgifford, and me saying that they are offering a table for free for the UbuCOn on Oct 24, 2014. Since they are offering this, I think we need to plan for this and see if we can do this with inside and outside the LoCo help. | 23:08 |
belkinsa | And our topics for this meeting are from that e-mail. | 23:09 |
skellat | belkinsa: We got downgraded from a room to a table? | 23:10 |
belkinsa | Yes. But I didn't remember saying anything about a room. | 23:10 |
belkinsa | No, space. Sorry. | 23:11 |
belkinsa | "> I am reaching out to you to see if there was interest from the Ohio | 23:12 |
belkinsa | > Ubuntu LoCo in participating in the Ohio LinuxFest. We are prepared to | 23:12 |
belkinsa | > gift the space to you, gratis, on the Friday of the conference: | 23:12 |
belkinsa | > October 24, 2014." | 23:12 |
Unit193 | Biggest issue will be getting talks lined up. | 23:12 |
belkinsa | So, I don't know as of yet what it is. | 23:12 |
* skellat wipes sweat from his brow after worrying that OLF was having yet more money problems | 23:12 | |

skellat | Okay...as to space, we got a conference room type area at the convention center in Columbus | 23:13 |
skellat | Seats about 100 people | 23:13 |
belkinsa | Unit193, yeah, I forgot about the talks but that is Oct 25, right? | 23:13 |
skellat | Lotsa chairs, space at the front to speak...and nothing said by OLF about A/V equipment yet again | 23:14 |
skellat | UbuCon always falls on a FRIDAY | 23:14 |
belkinsa | Alright | 23:14 |
skellat | So it would fall on October 24th | 23:14 |
belkinsa | Ah, I see now. | 23:14 |
belkinsa | This will be my first one. | 23:14 |
belkinsa | They said that they can provide speakers if needed. | 23:15 |
belkinsa | That's the third item for this meeting | 23:15 |
jrgifford | yup | 23:16 |
belkinsa | But the first is will we commit to this. | 23:16 |
jrgifford | (sorry, i'm late) | 23:16 |
skellat | It is okay | 23:16 |
belkinsa | It's cool. | 23:16 |
jrgifford | well, we can only commit if we have speakers | 23:16 |
belkinsa | Right. | 23:16 |
jrgifford | or at least a idea of what we're going to want to have presented | 23:16 |
belkinsa | Would be too late if we get some speakers from the other LoCo's within USA? | 23:17 |
skellat | belkinsa: Not really | 23:17 |
skellat | The now-leader of Colorado spoke at UbuCon last year | 23:17 |
belkinsa | Perfect, we need to live up that LoCo contacts list anyways. | 23:17 |
skellat | Could also ask if Elizabeth Krumbach Joseph is available from California team | 23:18 |
belkinsa | She said that she can't/ | 23:18 |
skellat | I see you're exercising your initiative. Excellent. | 23:18 |

skellat | drkokandy, which speakers did you like last year? | 23:19 |
belkinsa | Alright. | 23:19 |
belkinsa | #ACTION Make a call for speakers for OLF 2014 on LoCo Contact ML | 23:19 |
Unit193 | Well Darkwing still idles here, means he must at least half like us. ;) | 23:19 |
belkinsa | belkinsa's action Item | 23:19 |
belkinsa | Didn't he say that he will in the last meeting? | 23:20 |
* skellat casually reminds belkinsa that that the meeting bot isn't here and that minutes have to be kept manually :-) | 23:21 | |
belkinsa | I know. | 23:21 |
belkinsa | I was in two meetings where the bot was missing. | 23:21 |
drkokandy | that community computing session was really interesting, as well as the session by Jorge Castro | 23:21 |
belkinsa | It's a habit. | 23:21 |
drkokandy | I'm trying to remember what was Friday and what was Saturday | 23:22 |
skellat | drkokandy: Friday was me playing showman, Saturday was me handing out business cards | 23:22 |
skellat | Saturday was also iced tea from $GOOG | 23:22 |
drkokandy | that doesn't really help me remember what day featured which speakers :) | 23:22 |
belkinsa | There is a list message with the audio link to them... | 23:23 |
drkokandy | Here's a list | 23:24 |
drkokandy | https://archive.org/details/OhioLinuxfest2013 | 23:24 |
jenni | [ Ohio LinuxFest 2013 : Free Download & Streaming : Internet Archive ] - https://j.mp/UZS3wM | 23:24 |
belkinsa | Thanks | 23:24 |
drkokandy | The roundtable was good, although I feel like we could have gotten more people involved | 23:25 |
skellat | The roundtable was me improvising | 23:25 |
drkokandy | I was a little late, so I came in in the middle of Why Ubuntu | 23:25 |
drkokandy | the BIOS/UEFI session was really informative, I remember | 23:25 |
skellat | One of the scheduled presentations went way too short so the roundtable was me doing improvisation to keep things going | 23:25 |
belkinsa | At what time was this on that day? | 23:26 |
drkokandy | Ah, that's right | 23:26 |
skellat | Right after lunch | 23:26 |
Unit193 | Keysigning on Friday too? | 23:26 |
belkinsa | So a full day. Okay, thanks. | 23:26 |
skellat | I only ended up signing one key...drkokandy's | 23:27 |
skellat | I did the Friday planning in hour blocks | 23:27 |
Unit193 | Well, it may be moot anywho. :) | 23:28 |
skellat | Unit193: What may be moot? | 23:28 |
skellat | Oh | 23:30 |
skellat | You're being subtle | 23:30 |
skellat | Remember, I work for the Treasury and not any entity based at Fort Meade | 23:31 |
belkinsa | So...moving on? | 23:31 |
skellat | OLF made their request of what they want as a session but what else do we want to show about *buntu? | 23:32 |
belkinsa | Do you argee to hold some desktop basic content? If needed, we can provide the speakers for this component. Here is one | 23:32 |
Unit193 | Thinking something short about flavors would be nice. | 23:33 |
belkinsa | Maybe Ubuntu Touch runing a emi on the desktop? | 23:33 |
belkinsa | Unit193, +1 | 23:33 |
* skellat notes that leadership of USA locos is shifting to Xubuntu users increasingly | 23:34 | |
Unit193 | You, pleia, not sure who else. | 23:35 |
skellat | Possibly soon to be Nebraska | 23:35 |
skellat | There's a forced Change of Contact proceeding before LoCo Council right now | 23:35 |
belkinsa | So, flavours and Ubuntu Touch and it's core apps? | 23:35 |
belkinsa | Does it all have to be about the desktop? Can there something about the Community> | 23:36 |
skellat | Focus on the tech the first hour, Communitize The Community afterwards | 23:37 |
Unit193 | Or servers, or whatever. | 23:37 |
belkinsa | That could work. | 23:37 |
belkinsa | I have an idea for a Community based speech. | 23:37 |
skellat | Canonical may or may not have appointed a new Community Manager by then too so as to replace Jono Bacon | 23:39 |
belkinsa | Yeah, plus he said that he wasn't able to make it. | 23:40 |
belkinsa | I asked him in one of is Q&A sessions. | 23:41 |
skellat | belkinsa: Did you ask anybody at FSF? Is paultag able to represent the Sunlight Foundation to talk about the F/LOSS stuff they do? | 23:41 |
belkinsa | No, who are they? | 23:41 |
belkinsa | FSF ^^^ | 23:41 |
skellat | FSF: Free Software Foundation | 23:41 |
skellat | Richard M. Stallman's people | 23:42 |
belkinsa | Ah, no. Good idea though. | 23:42 |
Unit193 | We could sneak a Debian talk in... | 23:45 |
skellat | I was thinking about the FSF campaign recently over "E-mail Self Defense" that might be worthwhile to bring up again | 23:45 |
belkinsa | Sure. | 23:46 |
belkinsa | It seems that we can do the UbuCon after all if everything works. | 23:47 |
belkinsa | And we can move to this over to the mailing list. | 23:49 |
Unit193 | paultag: Going to OLF right? | 23:49 |
belkinsa | Unit193, it's Saturday, it's his day off. | 23:50 |
belkinsa | ;) | 23:50 |

Unit193 | On another note, lower turn out. | 23:54 |
