Nelson_I am here.  I am also unemployed which is explains how.20:01

Nelson_(-)20:02
Nelson_9-)20:02
Nelson_DOH!20:02
system76chicklol20:03
Nelson_Oy!  Looks like I need to get a real nick.  Been a LONG time since I used IRC.20:04
system76chickI didn't know about it until I started using Ubuntu. The one you have is fine :)20:05
=== Nelson_ is now known as Njall
NjallKewl!20:05
NjallThat was my nick in the 90's!20:06
system76chickawesome20:06
NjallYeah, I'm THAT old!20:06
system76chicklol, since it's just you and I in here, we'll throw around the same topics in the mailing list in case people wanted to provide any input20:07
NjallUnsteallar turn out?20:07
Njaller unstellar20:08
system76chickThat's ok, people are just busy. Email is always a good back up20:08
NjallI understand20:08
NjallThe only reason that you haven't seen me at any of the gatherings is that I live in Monument and northern metro-Denver is a heck of a long way away.20:09
NjallAnd Sundqay evening, when I have been working, is quite inconvenient for my old-folks sleep pattern.20:09
system76chickOh, bummer. Hopefully you can make it to a release party soon- Are Saturdays better then?20:10
Njall<- Yes!  He can speak incoherently in complete sentences.  The true mark of a civil being.20:10
NjallSaturdays would be better for me.20:10
system76chickCool20:11
NjallMaybe not everyone else who is more dedicated to doing other things on a Saturday evening.20:11
NjallHello agortmaker.20:11
system76chickHere are a few topics I was hoping to discuss in today's meeting. Does anyone else want to add anything? 1. Ubuntu Global Jam opportunities 2. Utopic Unicorn Release Party - Jeopardy vs. no Jeopary? Saturday vs. Sunday?20:12
agortmakerhello!20:12
system76chickHello agortmaker!20:13
NjallWhen is Egtopic, er, Utopic Unicorn going to be released?20:14
system76chickIt's scheduled for Oct 2320:14
NjallRoger20:15
system76chickThe release parties are usually a week later, but we will probably wait until after Halloween to encourage better attendance in case there are parties that weekend20:16
NjallDarn.  I was thinking I might be homeless (jk) then and get to come as I am.  Cheap costume that way.20:17
system76chickWe did Geek Jeopary with a focus on Ubuntu and PC hardware at a previous release party. It was very fun! I thought we should do it again but wanted to know what everyone thought about it20:17
NjallOnly if Kansas City Standard is a question.  <wink>20:17
NjallThat way I can get at least one question right.20:18
system76chickYea I just had to Google it...20:18
NjallAnd?20:18
system76chickit's a good question! I wonder who would be able to answer it- make it one of the higher value questions120:19
NjallFirst hit is correcrt Alex!20:19
NjallI used KCS, in lieu of punched tape, for a couple of years.20:20
system76chickInteresting!20:20
NjallMy first, personal, I/O was a KSR 33.20:21
NjallI remember the Mitts Altair!  (A and B)20:21
Njall'nuf of that,  This is about Ubuntu20:22
system76chickAgortmaker, do you have an preference for the Utopic release party the first week of November? Jeopardy or no Jeopardy and Saturday vs Sunday?20:22
system76chickNjall, I take it Saturday is best for you and that you would like Jeopardy if we can have Kansas City Standard as a question20:23
system76chick?20:23
agortmaker  Saturday, is generally easier for me.  I agree that we should seperate from halloween since people will have stuff going on that weekend20:24
NjallLOL - the KCS crack was a joke.  At this time I hope to have a "real' job by then so Saturday would be better for me.  However, I strongly recommend a wide pollig of active members first20:24
system76chickCool, and I will poll members20:25
system76chickUbuntu Global Jam weekend is coming up. It's September 12-14. Have you guys heard of that event?20:27
NjallWas the last "party" in Aurora?20:27
NjallIf so, "How'd I miss that!"20:27
system76chickWe had a meeting in Aurora20:27
system76chickI always post to the mailing list and update the wiki before we meet. It was a pretty small group but we finished our project and uploaded it to spreadubuntu! http://spreadubuntu.org/en/material/brochure/ubuntu-1404-handout-provide-install-cds20:28
NjallHello mrjazzcat.20:30
system76chickDoes anyone have any feedback about doing a Global Jam in Denver? I'll also send this out to the list..20:31
mrjazzcatNjall:  hello20:32
NjallNot entirely sure what a Global Jam is.  What does/would it entail?20:32
system76chickThe Global Jam details are here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGlobalJam20:33
system76chickHere are some of the things we can do at a Global Jam:20:33
system76chickApp Dev School event20:33
system76chickBugs20:33
system76chickTesting20:33
system76chickDocumentation20:33
system76chickDevelopment20:33
system76chickDesign20:33
system76chickTranslations20:33
system76chickPackaging20:33
system76chickPromote20:33
system76chickPeople recommend doing it in person, but since we're all so spread out, A Google Hangout at a specified time would be ideal. I wanted to focus on filing bugs in social applications20:35
system76chickIf we all pick a specific task to cover during the jam, our loco team could have a very productive event contributing to Ubuntu! It would be so much fun!20:36
NjallHow feasible is an in-person AND Google Hangout at the same time?20:37
NjallIn person is better, though, you're right about not everyone being able to attend or attend the whole time.20:37
system76chickDoing both is a great idea- I'm willing to do both20:38
NjallYOU likely have more experience in this and would be a better judge than I.20:38
system76chickI'll see how many people RSVP for the in person event and if nobody does, then it will just be a G+ hangout20:40
NjallRoger.20:40
system76chickBased on today's meeting, I'll take a poll on having the release party on Saturday after Halloween, and reach out to see how many people would be willing to participate in a Global Jam.20:41
system76chickAre there any other topics you guys would like to discuss?20:41
NjallI do not20:44
system76chickAlright, that concludes today's Colorado Team meeting. I'll get the poll out to the mailing list ASAP and update our Wiki.20:45
system76chick#endmeeting20:45
system76chickThanks for the input guys!20:47
