themusicgod1 | oh hey jlamothe | 13:59 |
---|---|---|
themusicgod1 | how do I go about opening a chapter in thunder bay? | 14:07 |
genii | themusicgod1: The sort of "official way" ...If you don't already have a Launchpad login, that's where to start. Then you can make a wiki page about yourself and apply for Ubuntu membership, and Ubuntu Canada membership on Launchpad. The existing members help by giving testimonials on your wiki and showing up on IRC when you up for membership. From there you just try and find others in your area and gather together occasionally for Ubuntu Hours and | 14:26 |
genii | Release Parties, hook up with local LUGs, etc | 14:26 |
genii | Unofficially just start doing the last thing there :) | 14:27 |
genii | themusicgod1: You can also apply on Launchpad to Ubuntu Canada group without needing to be an official Ubuntu member | 14:30 |
themusicgod1 | i've got a launchpad login | 14:41 |
themusicgod1 | i'll see if i can make a wiki page | 14:41 |
themusicgod1 | unfortunately i think the local LUG doesn't exist anymore | 14:43 |
themusicgod1 | I am hosting a key signing party next week though, though that's more of a debian thing maybe | 14:44 |
themusicgod1 | through the local hackerspace(ohmbase) | 14:45 |
genii | themusicgod1: Yes, I was just searching for a LUG close to you but the ones which used to be in that area including NOLUG seem to be defunct. There may be one in Sudbury but it doesn't seem to have a website I can find. Closest otherwise is the one in Ottawa | 14:48 |
genii | themusicgod1: If you contact someone in OCLUG they may know of people or groups closer to you | 14:49 |
themusicgod1 | yeah winnipeg is probably closer than ottawa | 14:50 |
themusicgod1 | i'm assuming if there's anyone nearby they'll eventually wander into the hackerspace | 14:51 |
genii | themusicgod1: I do know of a regular Kubuntu user in Espanola, I could ask him if he knows any groups around there | 14:51 |
themusicgod1 | no idea where that is :) | 14:54 |
genii | themusicgod1: Couple hours west of you above Manitoulin | 14:54 |
themusicgod1 | oh east of the sault | 14:55 |
themusicgod1 | gotcha | 14:55 |
genii | BluesKaj: Hiyas! :) | 14:57 |
genii | themusicgod1: BluesKaj is the Kubuntu user I was mentioning | 14:58 |
* genii makes a pretense of making introductions | 14:58 | |
genii | I'm sort of wondering now what became of NOLUG, seemed like a decent idea | 14:59 |
genii | work, afk a bit | 15:02 |
BluesKaj | themusicgod1 , Hi | 15:05 |
themusicgod1 | oh cool | 15:23 |
