nhaines | UbuCon Summit and SCALE 14x are in Pasadena on January 21st-24th. UbuCon Summit is free, and SCALE is $85 for a full all access pass and $15 for just the expo floor. | 03:19 |
nhaines | Use the coupon code UBNTU to get half of the full SCALE pass. | 03:19 |
nhaines | Are ther any other events coming up this month? | 03:19 |
Roguehorse | unfortunately I've been too busy with other things to check | 03:20 |
nhaines | Okay, apparently nothing planned. Well, with the holidays that's to be expected. :) | 03:22 |
nhaines | #topic Announcements | 03:23 |
nhaines | The Ubuntu California leadership nomination passed, with only three nominations. | 03:23 |
nhaines | As per procedure, this means that the nominees are confirmed without an election. | 03:23 |
nhaines | So from January 1st, 2016 on, myself, ianorlin, and pleia2 are on the Ubuntu California leadership team. | 03:23 |
nhaines | I'd like to thank elky for all of her hard work for the team this year, and for continued success in her endeavours. | 03:24 |
Roguehorse | sounds good 😆 | 03:24 |
nhaines | And I'd also like to thank pleia2 for volunteering to help, although truth be told she already helps out a ton, so there shouldn't be much difference now. | 03:25 |
nhaines | Does anyone else have business to announce? | 03:25 |
Roguehorse | It looks like I'll still be running EBLUG | 03:26 |
nhaines | Roguehorse: that's good to hear! I hope things pick up again in January. | 03:27 |
Roguehorse | yeah, 3 months away, I suspect not much has changed,but we'll find out | 03:28 |
nhaines | Okay then, onto our agenda items for tonight. | 03:29 |
nhaines | #topic Meetup group progress. | 03:30 |
nhaines | So far, with little advertising, our Meetup group has 57 members and 35 RSVPs for UbuCon Summit. | 03:30 |
nhaines | I think that's a pretty good start for just a couple of weeks. | 03:30 |
Roguehorse | This is new to me, will have to check it out. | 03:30 |
nhaines | The group is located at http://www.meetup.com/Ubuntu-California/ | 03:31 |
nhaines | I'd like to encourage everyone to use it for their events, so do let me or pleia2 know if you're hosting a public event and we can get things set up for you there. | 03:31 |
ianorlin | ok | 03:32 |
Roguehorse | cool 👍 | 03:32 |
nhaines | #topic SCaLE 14X planning | 03:34 |
nhaines | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/Scale14x | 03:34 |
nhaines | UbuCon Summit planning is proceeding at speed and we're pretty close to done there. | 03:34 |
nhaines | The Ubuntu booth will be double-sized this year, so we'll still need lots of volunteers. | 03:35 |
nhaines | Canonical is helping to sponsor the booth, and so we'll finally have that vertical banner that I've wanted for so long. I've also requested Ubuntu Infographic t-shirts for the booth volunteers this time around. | 03:35 |
nhaines | Volunteers will need to be able to talk about Ubuntu and answer simple questions, and greet booth visitors. | 03:36 |
ianorlin | also is the booth bigger ? as last year we almost had so many volunteers it would turn off shy people from visiting the booth | 03:37 |
nhaines | You don't need to be an Ubuntu expert, and in fact it's going to be a great opportunity to learn more about Ubuntu in the cloud, on phones, and in the Internet of Things. | 03:37 |
nhaines | ianorlin: yes, as I mentioned, we have twice as much booth space this year. | 03:37 |
ianorlin | although the show floor can get loud | 03:37 |
nhaines | Anyone can stop by and greet people for a little bit, but anyone who can fill a 4 hour shift (with a break if desired) will receive a SCALE exhibitor badge the allows access to the entire show for free. | 03:39 |
nhaines | Also, I expect we'll have some Arizona LoCo members to help us again this year. | 03:40 |
nhaines | So please feel free to sign up at the wiki page if you can make it. | 03:41 |
nhaines | We'll have retail and developer phones to show off and we'll also be showing off the phone's convergence features. | 03:42 |
ianorlin | hmm ok anything else needed for the booth? | 03:43 |
nhaines | Plus we'll have an orange box and Canonical employees by to talk about some of the details. | 03:43 |
nhaines | I think the only thing left is incidentals, most of which I'm covering thanks to community funds and with what's left over from last year. | 03:44 |
nhaines | But the full list is on the wiki page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/Scale14x | 03:44 |
nhaines | So mostly we need volunteers. | 03:45 |
nhaines | That's about all I have for that now. | 03:45 |
nhaines | Any questions? | 03:45 |
Roguehorse | what would I have to pay for? room and food? | 03:46 |
ianorlin | and getting there I think | 03:46 |
nhaines | Roguehorse: everything except admission. | 03:46 |
Roguehorse | let me think on it. funds are still limited right now. | 03:47 |
nhaines | Okay, let us know by signing up on the wiki page and also at Meetup! | 03:48 |
Roguehorse | k | 03:48 |
nhaines | #topic Other business | 03:48 |
nhaines | This is our last meeting for the year. Before we wrap things up, is there anything else? | 03:49 |
Roguehorse | nah | 03:50 |
nhaines | Okay, our next meeting is on January 10, 2016. | 03:51 |
nhaines | Happy holidays, everyone! | 03:51 |
nhaines | #endmeeting | 03:51 |
