| skellat | belkinsa, Unit193, jrgifford: I would like to schedule an in-person meeting for our community within the next 90 days. Would the three of you be willing & able to ascertain a suitable location to hold this in perhaps late January or on January 19th which is a federal holiday? | 02:14 |
|---|---|---|
| skellat | Monday, February 16th, is also usable | 02:15 |
| skellat | .addpoint Unit193 | 04:21 |

| Unit193 | Temp: 32 F (0 C) ~ Overcast ~ Windchill: 26 F (-4 C) ~ Humidity: 75% ~ Alert: Freezing Rain Advisory ~ Observed: Fri 05, 03:52 | 09:38 |
| Unit193 | :D | 09:38 |
| belkinsa | skellat, what do you mean by in-person? | 13:48 |
| skellat | belkinsa: Face to face, physically present | 16:15 |
| belkinsa | Can we do it via Hangouts | 21:13 |
| skellat | Let us shoot for UGJ weekend instead | 21:31 |
| Unit193 | To what point and purpose? | 21:32 |
| skellat | Well, not the discussion of this: http://pad.ubuntu.com/LeadershipAndGovernanceDiscussion | 21:33 |
| jenni | [ OpenID Authentication Required ] - https://j.mp/1CO7Tyh <-- huh | 21:33 |
| * skellat did not realize jenni would offer editorial comment | 21:33 | |
| skellat | .addpoint Unit193 | 21:34 |
| jenni | unit193: +2/-0, 2 | 21:34 |
| Unit193 | And likely also not whether Picard or Kirk is better. | 21:34 |
| skellat | Purpose: To have a community even in concert with overall CCT/Community Council driven goal of spurring activity | 21:35 |
| Unit193 | So, a meetup for the sake of a meetup, I see. | 21:35 |
| skellat | Point: Removing electronic intermediation so that people meet in person results in formation of bonding better than video chats do | 21:35 |
| skellat | Unit193: Activity during the event TBD | 21:36 |
| skellat | The date for UGJ was only settled a few hours ago | 21:36 |
| Unit193 | I would concur with your point, sure. | 21:36 |
| skellat | If belkinsa wants to have practice leading a docs-related jam with Ohio participants, we can do that | 21:38 |
| belkinsa | Sure, that works. | 21:39 |
| skellat | If you, Unit193, want to do Debian-related things plus bug-squashing we can do that | 21:39 |
| belkinsa | I know that I do want to do a Hangout with you skellat. | 21:39 |
| skellat | .addpoint jrgifford | 21:40 |
| jenni | jrgifford: +1/-0, 1 | 21:40 |
| skellat | If jrgifford wants to do something AskUbuntu-related, we can do that | 21:40 |
| skellat | The date is settled. We have time to find a venue. | 21:40 |
| skellat | Our counterparts in California apparently already had a venue ready | 21:40 |
| skellat | Ohio hasn't really done anything for Ubuntu Global Jam for a few years | 21:41 |
| belkinsa | What are they planning to do? | 21:41 |
| skellat | belkinsa: Ask pleia2 | 21:41 |
| skellat | All I know is that they got the venue | 21:42 |
| skellat | dholbach and pleia2 wanted PabloRubianes, jose, and myself to finally settle the UGJ date which we did earlier today | 21:42 |
| belkinsa | Done | 21:42 |
| * Unit193 doesn't see it as a competition. | 21:42 | |
| skellat | It isn't | 21:42 |
| skellat | I just want to break a pattern of seeing things only happen in the same old places | 21:43 |

| jrgifford | PING DEATTTTTTTHHHHH. | 21:44 |
| jrgifford | my phone was buzzing basically non-stop... >_> | 21:44 |
| belkinsa | skellat, alright. I think we has my answer. | 21:44 |
| jrgifford | skellat: i can probably find a location up here in cleveland | 21:45 |

| jrgifford | every second | 21:45 |
| paultag | woo,, jamm'n! | 21:46 |
| paultag | also ping jrgifford | 21:46 |
| jrgifford | will need to double check the dates for that. | 21:46 |

| Unit193 | ./skittles-barf Hello world! :P | 21:46 |
| paultag | hunh? | 21:46 |
| jrgifford | skellat: cool | 21:46 |
| paultag | I don't see any colors - what are you talking about :) | 21:46 |

| paultag | :) | 21:47 |
| Unit193 | There's colors somewhere here? | 21:47 |
| paultag | dunno Unit193 | 21:47 |
| belkinsa | OMG. You guys. | 21:47 |
| paultag | I think jrgifford is going nuts | 21:47 |
| Unit193 | I do too. | 21:47 |

| jrgifford | but i'm ok with that now. | 21:48 |
| paultag | well good | 21:48 |
| skellat | I can randomly assign points like Who's Line Is It Anyway | 21:49 |
| skellat | Lets hope we don't get to the reading of the credits any time soon | 21:49 |
| jrgifford | i guess irccloud doesn't let you do colored text. :-) | 21:50 |
| skellat | For my contribution to UGJ, I frankly want to have a trivia game or something fun like that | 21:50 |
| paultag | not like you can bold anything | 21:50 |
| paultag | or underline, that'd be insane | 21:51 |
| paultag | :) | 21:51 |
| * skellat is listening to WEWS about the protesters wrecking downtown Cleveland traffic patterns yet again | 21:52 | |
| jrgifford | as someone at e24 and superior, i am very, very concerned. | 21:52 |
| jrgifford | mostly because i need to take a bus east. | 21:53 |
| skellat | jrgifford: I had the warning from LakeTran earlier today at about 11 AM with a "Run For It" message and that there would be a special "Get Out of Dodge" run at 2 PM | 21:53 |
| belkinsa | skellat, do you think the Ubuntu Global Jam will help our LoCo to grow again? | 21:53 |
| jrgifford | skellat: nice! | 21:53 |
| Unit193 | jrgifford: So, still hanging out there in AskUbuntu land? Anything else cool and new? | 21:54 |
| skellat | jrgifford: This is one of those cases I am glad I'm still on furlough and not recalled to duty with $AGENCY. We're still looking at a possible federal budget crisis next week so I'm just rocking the unemployment... | 21:54 |
| skellat | I've enjoyed being in Ashtabula all day | 21:54 |
| skellat | belkinsa: I certainly hope so | 21:54 |
| belkinsa | I do too, but I'm a bit not sure at the same time. | 21:55 |
| skellat | belkinsa: There is always risk in such things. All you can do is do the best you can. | 21:56 |
| belkinsa | It's mainly because of what I written to the Community Team mailing-list last night. | 21:56 |
| * belkinsa nods | 21:56 | |
| skellat | belkinsa: Umm...that's not bad | 21:56 |
| skellat | belkinsa: I've more than likely ticked off plenty of people via LoCo Council stuff lately | 21:57 |
| skellat | Over a far, far broader area | 21:57 |
| skellat | And sometimes Bing Translator just chokes on what I ask it to translate for me | 21:57 |
| belkinsa | Do you think it's really a lack of resources or is it something else that is hurting the Community? | 21:57 |
| skellat | jrgifford: East 14th & Euclid but NewsChannel 5 says the protesters are heading back to Public Square at the moment. | 22:01 |
| jrgifford | skellat: eek. | 22:01 |
| skellat | Bite the bullet and call for paratransit? | 22:01 |
| belkinsa | I-75, near Cincinnati, was shut down because of them awhile back. | 22:02 |
| skellat | belkinsa: A nation-wide phenomenon | 22:02 |
| paultag | über | 22:02 |
| belkinsa | I know. | 22:03 |
| skellat | Hunh. Greater Cleveland RTA doesn't have dial-a-ride like LakeTran or Ashtabula County Transportation System. They have paratransit but it isn't the same thing. http://www.riderta.com/paratransit | 22:04 |
| jenni | [ Paratransit service | Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority ] - https://j.mp/1u0Yp8B <-- huh | 22:04 |
| belkinsa | jenni: why are acting up? | 22:04 |
| jenni | belkinsa, I am beng punish by my parents | 22:05 |
| belkinsa | Anyways, skellat, I'm settled on what I will do for the Jam with our fine LoCo. | 22:05 |
| skellat | .addpoint belkinsa | 22:05 |
| jenni | belkinsa: +2/-0, 2 | 22:05 |
| skellat | Okay | 22:05 |
| skellat | Docs will work well as something we can play with in Ohio | 22:06 |
| skellat | I'll be more than happy to do a trivia game to incorporate some "fun" into the day | 22:06 |
| skellat | James will look for a Cleveland-area venue | 22:06 |
| belkinsa | But I think we should start easy, as in with the Wiki first./ | 22:06 |
| skellat | belkinsa: That will work | 22:06 |
| * belkinsa needs to find the Cincinnati folks... | 22:06 | |
| skellat | You have to crawl before you can walk | 22:06 |
| belkinsa | Indeed. | 22:07 |
| skellat | I'll be looking at ODNR's state parks/state lodges to see what we have closer to the center of the state too | 22:07 |
| belkinsa | That might be a great choice. | 22:07 |
| belkinsa | Better than being scattered around the stae. | 22:08 |
| belkinsa | state( | 22:08 |
| Unit193 | skellat: And the wiki crawls enough for the rest of us. \o/ | 22:08 |
| skellat | The lodges are listed here: http://parks.ohiodnr.gov/lodges | 22:08 |
| skellat | Geneva is an unacceptable option as it is in...ASHTABULA COUNTY | 22:09 |
| skellat | Though the lodge there is very, very nice | 22:09 |
| belkinsa | Hueston Woods is too down south for you guys. | 22:09 |
| belkinsa | Shawnee State Park is too. | 22:10 |
| skellat | Deer Creek? | 22:11 |
| belkinsa | Doable. | 22:11 |
| belkinsa | I know that area from marching band. | 22:12 |
| skellat | Punderson would be a northern option in southern Geauga County but for the manor being down for renovations in January and February | 22:12 |
| belkinsa | Salt Fork State Park is doable too. | 22:12 |
| belkinsa | Burr Oak might be too. | 22:13 |
| skellat | Hmm, sounds almost like a candidate for a CIVS vote | 22:14 |
| belkinsa | I think we may need an IRC meeting. | 22:17 |
| skellat | True | 22:18 |
| skellat | We may | 22:18 |
| skellat | I'm being called away to set up dinner and get laundry done | 22:18 |
| belkinsa | Alright. | 22:18 |
| skellat | Think about things, hash them out, and we'll see where we go from there | 22:18 |
| * skellat goes to feed The Chat | 22:18 | |
| belkinsa | Aye, aye, captain! | 22:18 |
| skellat | s/The Chat/The Cat/ | 22:18 |
