balloonsmhall119, pleia2 so do we know who all will be on the panel? etc? I did just reg the talk for contributing, but pleia2 I would be happy to co-host it with you17:16
mhall119balloons: we haven't fleshed out plans for the panel yet, it's just a proposal17:24
pleia2balloons: I was thinking of doing something similar to my 5 ways to get involved talk, covering Ubuntu News, Documentation, Support, Testing/QA and Advocacy - maybe you could take Testing/QA and do something about phones stuff too? And whatever else you focus on these days :)18:13
balloonspleia2, I'll add you as a cohost to the topic. We can share notes and split things up18:15
pleia2balloons: that would be great :)18:16
pleia2for now, I have a blog post wrap-up that links to all my "notes" (related blog posts, slides) http://princessleia.com/journal/?p=923518:18
pleia2my goal is to give people concrete things to work on rather than a generic "you should contribute to ubuntu, it's fun!"18:18
* pleia2 seeks lunch18:19
balloonsyes.. pleia2 for my end, I wanted to talk about barriers to contributing, proper mindset, and rewards of doing so18:19
balloonsso I think we've got it covered heh18:19
pleia2balloons: perfect :)20:03
