| pleia2 | ^^ agenda :) | 03:01 |
| pleia2 | #topic Upcoming events | 03:01 |
| pleia2 | so we've got an Ubuntu Hour coming up in Berkeley on Feb 14th http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-california/3290-ubuntu-hour-berkeley/ | 03:02 |
| pleia2 | I'll also likely host one in San Francisco on Wednesday, but time got away from me so I haven't added it to the LTP or Meetup, or announced it, I should do that tonight | 03:02 |
| pleia2 | any other events that aren't listed? | 03:03 |
| nhaines | SGVLUG has a meeting on February 11th. The topic is "Building a Community." http://www.meetup.com/SGVTech/events/227991894/ | 03:03 |
| nhaines | Liz Krane will be talking about her experience growing the Learn to Code LA Meetup group to 2200 members in less than a year. | 03:03 |
| ianorlin | ok sounds nice but is still a bit of a drive for me | 03:03 |
| nhaines | They'll also be raffling off some leftover stuff from SCALE, so if you really miss Pasadena, it's a good excuse to go back. :) | 03:04 |
| pleia2 | nhaines: any thoughts as to how we could convince Richard to start posting announcements to his Pasadena Ubuntu Hours to the team? or at least adding them to LTP or meetup? | 03:04 |
| pleia2 | they're kind of invisible to the team at the moment, which is ashame for folks looking for LA-focused events (I don't remember the details for them, so I struggle to help people find info about them) | 03:05 |
| nhaines | pleia2: That's a good question. I owe him a phone call, so I'll mention it to him this week. | 03:05 |
| pleia2 | cool | 03:05 |
| pleia2 | sounds like that LUG meeting should be fun | 03:06 |
| pleia2 | #topic Announcements | 03:06 |
| pleia2 | anyone have any announcements? | 03:06 |
| * ianorlin does not | 03:07 | |
| pleia2 | tablet news last week was pretty big :) http://insights.ubuntu.com/2016/02/04/canonical-reinvents-the-personal-mobile-computing-experience/ | 03:07 |
| pleia2 | and our own nhaines is organizing the Ubuntu Free Culture Showcase this cycle http://nhaines.livejournal.com/69721.html | 03:07 |
| nhaines | Yes! | 03:08 |
| pleia2 | materials for that get included in an LTS, which I learned at SCALE is what 97% of ubuntu users use | 03:08 |
| nhaines | TIL some people aren't perpetually running devel. | 03:09 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 03:09 |
| pleia2 | "some" | 03:09 |
| pleia2 | it does offer perspective on the decision to switch to only 9 months support for the 6 months releases | 03:10 |
| nhaines | Indeed. | 03:10 |
| nhaines | I still think they should've waited two more interrim releases to do so, though. | 03:11 |
| pleia2 | it was a bit abrupt | 03:11 |
| pleia2 | alright, so moving along | 03:12 |
| pleia2 | #topic UbuCon Summit / SCALE 14x post-mortem meeting. | 03:12 |
| pleia2 | #link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/Scale14x | 03:12 |
| pleia2 | I updated the wiki earlier with links to photos (are there other galleries of photos? Please add links!), blog posts and videos from the ubucon summit | 03:12 |
| nhaines | I believe I received photos from David Ellsworth, but I think we ran into a weird sharing name collision in OwnCloud, so I will troubleshoot. | 03:13 |
| pleia2 | fun times | 03:14 |
| nhaines | I'd say UbuCon was a giant success. | 03:15 |
| pleia2 | I agree :) | 03:15 |
| pleia2 | I hope Canonical also found value in it and will continue supporting us in the future, and maybe some other UbuCons too | 03:16 |
| pleia2 | nhaines: were you at the organizing team wrap-up meeting last week? | 03:16 |
| nhaines | pleia2: no, I couldn't make it, so that's another reason I owe Richard a phone call. | 03:17 |
| nhaines | But everything I've heard from Canonical so far is that they were very happy. | 03:17 |
| pleia2 | I wasn't either (wrong side of the planet) | 03:17 |
| pleia2 | that's good to hear :) | 03:17 |
| nhaines | And I believe they'll be working with UbuCon Europe as well. I'll be sitting in on that meeting Tuesday, if I can be up at 6:30am, which is always dubious. | 03:18 |
| pleia2 | nice | 03:18 |
| pleia2 | haha, yeah | 03:18 |
| ianorlin | yeah it went really well | 03:18 |
| nhaines | Probably the only thing I would do differently for UbuCon is to feature the Q&A more centrally. | 03:18 |
| ianorlin | nhaines: that would probably be nice | 03:19 |
| nhaines | But outside of that, I thought the unconference portion turned out really well. | 03:19 |
| pleia2 | I would have liked to hear some more results from the unconference | 03:19 |
| pleia2 | like how the track leads at UOS do a summary hangout to share | 03:20 |
| pleia2 | so maybe a conclusion session where each group shares something | 03:20 |
| nhaines | That's a really good idea. | 03:20 |
| ianorlin | unconferences yeah that could be good sharing what happened at the others is one thing that could be better | 03:20 |
| nhaines | I thought the booth worked very well also, although I think we could've used that extra table after all. | 03:22 |
| pleia2 | yeah, every time I came by the booth it was quite busy | 03:22 |
| ianorlin | yeah it seems booth has been quite busy last three years | 03:23 |
| nhaines | The booth's been really busy all 8 years. | 03:23 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 03:24 |
| nhaines | The convergence demo was a huge hit. It'll be really exciting next year when it's running legacy desktop apps, too. | 03:25 |
| * pleia2 nods | 03:25 | |
| nhaines | Was there anything the booth could've done better or differently? | 03:26 |
| pleia2 | no ideas from me | 03:27 |
| nhaines | The booth is pretty much a known quantity these days. | 03:28 |
| ianorlin | yep | 03:28 |
| nhaines | I would like to specifically thank Luis Caballero for being an absolute rockstar at the booth Friday and Saturday. | 03:29 |
| pleia2 | yay, thanks Luis! | 03:29 |
| nhaines | Even the Canonical community team mentioned it to me. | 03:29 |
| nhaines | So to me, UbuCon Summit and SCALE were a giant success because a lot of people came together and worked hard. | 03:32 |
| pleia2 | ++ | 03:33 |
| pleia2 | excellent work everyone :) I had a blast | 03:33 |
| nhaines | Richard and I are always trying to keep from getting complacent about UbuCon, but I think the general formula works. :) | 03:33 |
| pleia2 | #topic Any other business | 03:35 |
| pleia2 | anything else for this meeting? | 03:36 |
| * ianorlin does not have anything | 03:36 | |
| nhaines | Nothing from me. | 03:36 |
| pleia2 | alrighty, thanks guys | 03:37 |
| pleia2 | #endmeeting | 03:37 |
| pleia2 | I wonder what happened to the bot | 03:38 |
| pleia2 | not that we strictly use the minutes that come from it | 03:38 |
| nhaines | Yeah. I should look into that some time soon. | 03:40 |
| nhaines | It's going to be tomorrow, though, because I'm sick or something today. | 03:40 |
| nhaines | (So thanks for all the wiki maintenance this week!) | 03:41 |
| pleia2 | hope you feel better :\ | 03:43 |
| pleia2 | I'm pretty excited that I managed to do SCALE and LCA without catching anything | 03:43 |
| nhaines | Thanks! This is my second year in a row that I didn't get sick after SCALE *because* of SCALE. | 03:44 |
| nhaines | Although I suspect that being too busy to eat so all my meals outside of dinner consisted of Soylent didn't hurt this year. | 03:44 |
| nhaines | That's probably better than I eat all the rest of the year anyway. | 03:45 |
| pleia2 | hah | 03:47 |
| nhaines | I also walked 20.5 miles at SCALE (plus another 3.5 on the following Monday) and lost something like 2.5 pounds, which was kind of nice. | 03:51 |
| pleia2 | crazy :) | 03:52 |
| nhaines | It means I made the right decision when we went to Yard House and I ordered the lobster artichoke dip and didn't share any. | 03:53 |
| pleia2 | that sounds delicious | 03:54 |
