belkinsapleia2, what is Ubuntu California LoCo doing for the Global Jam>21:42
pleia2belkinsa: Xubuntu QA (ISO and package testing) https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-us-ca/2014-December/002541.html21:43
wxlbelkinsa: trying to steal ideas for Ohio? :)21:44
pleia2please do! :)21:44
belkinsawxl, what is your's doing?21:45
wxlbelkinsa: yeah i don't know yet. i'd like to get some lubuntu qa done, but i'm not sure i'll have enough folks. 21:45
wxlbelkinsa: another part of me would like to keep it open and just try to foster membership/contribution21:46
skellatI'm encouraging my deputies to do some planning to come up with portions of the event for Ohio that they can run with21:46
belkinsaThat's a good idea.21:46
wxlit seems like some of our folks are WELL along the way (bdmurray) and others didn't even know about membership21:46
pleia2wxl: so I've found having something anyone can work on (like QA - if they bring a laptop and anyone can do LiveCD testing from USB sticks you prepare), then tell everyone they can do that, or ask for whatever help on anything, works well21:47
pleia2if I leave it wide open some people will just check email and facebook the whole time21:47
wxlpleia2: so have a focus but also leave it open21:47
* pleia2 nods21:47
wxlpleia2: do you have a lot of xubuntu users in your loco?21:47
pleia2not really :)21:48
belkinsaI think it would be worth it to do all flavour QA then.21:48
wxlhave you done a xubuntu-specific kinda thing before?21:48
pleia2but they come anyway, QA is the same across projects so they can do iso testing on anything they want if they're more familiar with Unity21:48
pleia2wxl: yep: http://princessleia.com/journal/?p=674921:48
wxloh that's an interesting idea21:49
wxlok qa it is21:49
wxloooh at wikimedia foundation21:49
wxlneeeeeat21:49
pleia2xubuntu was useful because it's the project I work on, and developers are around on weekends, so I can lurk on #xubuntu-devel and "where do I file this bug?" at them all day :D21:49
wxlhahahahahah21:50
pleia2true story21:50
pleia2figuring out what to file a bug against is the hardest part of QA events21:50
pleia2and weekends mean all the paid canonical folks are not around21:50
wxlyeah i know what you mean21:50
wxlare you a qa member for xubuntu?21:51
skellatSo far we've talked about doing something docs-related, something bugs-related, and I'll do a trivia game for our notional Ohio session21:51
pleia2wxl: everyone on xubuntu-team is a qa member, we don't really have strong boundries21:52
wxlah cool21:52
pleia2all project leads are expected to do testing21:52
wxlwe CERTAINLY have people who would never do testing21:52
wxlhead of communications for example21:52
wxloooh ubuntu earrings21:53
pleia2technically I'm the marketing lead for xubuntu21:55
pleia2ubuntu necklaces too!21:56
wxlwell my goal is to slowly turn everyone into a tester and then a programmer :)22:00
pleia2++22:00
wxlwe started something up which is kind of like ubuntu beginners team but it's distro agnostic22:01
wxli just finished working on everything i think i'm going to put on the programming page for now22:01
belkinsaLinux Padawan is the name.22:01
wxlyep22:01
wxlhttp://wiki.linuxpadawan.net/LinuxPadawan/Programming22:01
belkinsahttp://ubuntusense.com/2014/12/01/introducing-linux-padawan-mentioning-for-all-linux-folks/ I know title is wrong in the link22:03
wxlheheh22:03
wxlyeah i need to blog about it now that i've done all this darn work22:04
wxlwill likely come out of the blog about hack summit22:04
wxlthat's going to take me a whlie22:04
