MajBYou got a visitor from AZLOCO as well.02:01
nhainesMajB: welcome!02:01
MajBThank you02:01
pleia2hi MajB, I owe you an email (or maybe this meeting can help!)02:01
nhainesSo I'm giving a talk at the San Gabriel Valley LUG on July 9th.02:01
Roguehorsecool02:02
nhainesI'll be giving a presentation on writing an open source book with a publisher and also talking about how Free Software can take you through the entire self-publishing process.02:02
Roguehorseoooh......very cool =)02:02
pleia2nice02:03
Roguehorsewill the notes be available online after?02:03
nhainesMy upcoming traditionally published book has been created with 100% Ubuntu except where I needed a Windows 10 screenshot, with very little difficulties.  So it'll be a fun presentation.02:03
nhainesI might just wing this one, depending on what I manage to do for a presentation, but if I have notes, or if I can get a recording, I'll get it online somewhere shortly thereafter.02:03
nhainesI'll know more about that next weekend.02:04
Roguehorsesweet =)02:04
nhainesDetails at http://www.sgvlug.org/ if anyone down in SoCal wants to try and make it!02:04
darthrobot`Title: [SGVLUG]02:04
nhainesDoes anyone have any other announcements or upcoming events?02:04
pleia2not in the loco directory yet, but we'll host our regular ubuntu hour next week, on july 8th02:04
pleia2in san francisco02:04
pleia2will likely do a debian dinner after too, but I'll confirm and email the list02:04
pleia2that's it from me02:05
nhainespleia2: ooh, maybe I should put my talk on the LoCo directory.  Thanks for the reminder.  :)02:05
nhainesAnd glad to hear that Ubuntu Hour's still going strong up there.  I'll cross my fingers for the dinner.02:05
pleia2sure02:05
nhainesOkay, if no one else has anything upcoming...02:06
RoguehorseI had some stuff lined up but with my health the way it is I don't know much anymore of what's going to happen02:06
nhainesRoguehorse: I hope your health improves.  Don't be afraid to work with others to get help with those events!02:07
nhaines#topic Other business02:07
Roguehorsenhaines: thanks.....I'm trying to juggle a lot02:07
nhainesThat's the end of our agenda items.  Does anyone have any last comments or topics to bring up?02:08
pleia2MajB: the floor is yours :)02:08
pleia2MajB emailed me on thursday to talk about some possible cross-loco activities, but they can likely say more about it02:09
MajBSince we are right next to each other my Team Leader asked me to reach out to you folks to see if we could pool our resources and perhaps do something together02:09
MajBAll I really need right now is  a POC from you folks.02:10
pleia2nhaines and ianorlyn are among our team leads this year, so they're both good people to contact02:10
MajBThis is something that he has been thinking about for a while and sees that perhaps it is time to start.02:11
Roguehorsesecond that02:11
pleia2and more generally our mailing list, since we're a very self driven group (don't need permission for things, people just dive in): ubuntu-us-ca@lists.ubuntu.com02:11
nhainesThe mailing list is a great idea.  You can email me if you need any specific things but I'm on the mailing list too.  :)02:11
pleia2the last time I saw folks from the AZ LoCo was at SCALE in 2014, we're always looking for volunteers to help with the booth there02:11
nhainesMy email address is nhaines at ubuntu dot com.02:11
pleia2and speakers for ubucon that we host :)02:12
MajBWell we run 4 ubuntu hours and 2 install fests every month.02:12
nhainesAnd SCALE's one big place we can always use volunteers.  Ubucon always needs volunteers.  :)02:12
pleia2MajB: that's wonderful02:12
MajBYes we had reps attend SCALE02:12
nhainesWhat's the attendance like on your installfests?02:13
MajBSo I will pick a name and continue to email.  I would also like to see something happen02:13
MajB12-28 this year.  The Ubuntu Hours are of course less.02:14
MajBUnfortunately we only have two LUGs in state but we also do things for them when asked02:15
nhainesThat's fantastic!  You should be very proud.02:15
nhainesAnd let me put my LoCo Council hat on for a moment and second that.  :)02:15
MajBThe name of the game is spread Ubuntu02:15
Roguehorsenice =)02:15
nhainesI hope to hear more on our mailing list, where everyone can get involved.  It sounds like we ought to be able to join together.  :)02:16
MajBLoCo council.  Yep.  We have re-validation coming up in September.02:16
RoguehorseMajB: What's your mailing list?02:16

nhainesGreat, I'll have to peek at the list archives.02:17

DonkeyHoteicrap, missed everything but the ending02:22
MajBExcellent.  It should be interesting.02:22
nhainesDonkeyHotei: that was the best part!02:22
nhainesPlus you were in time for the meeting long URL. :)02:22
MajBI searched but could not find any example of two LoCos working together on a single project.02:22
RoguehorseMajB: You're joking?02:23
MajBNot one that they initiated.02:23
pleia2when I lived in Pennsylvania I drove up to New York to present at once of their release parties once, would also participate in New Jersey Ubuntu gaming/LAN parties02:23
nhainesMajB: Ubucon LA comes immediately to mind.  And Ubucon EU is coming next year!02:23
MajBWell there you go.02:24
RoguehorseWell, I think it's a great idea. We should all be working together anyway. We're all in this for the same reasons mostly after all. =)02:25
pleia2indeed :)02:25
MajB+102:26

ianorlinbe careful as if they get funded sometimes they don't deliver22:27
ianorlinespecially for hardware stuff22:27
=== danielg4 is now known as DonkeyHotei
Roguehorseno hardware.....this is a software idea23:12
ianorlinah that might work better I don't know much about compared to other online people23:13
Roguehorseno worries. it's a stab. just checking to see what others might know. I haven't considered it until just a few days ago. I think my idea stands a chance though.23:37
pleia2I've contributed to a few over the years23:39
