dpmhi svij, so I was thinking about UbuCon EU12:59
svijdpm: yes?13:00
dpmI think at this stage it might be better to have biweekly meetings, as in the last few ones we've not had much updates to report13:00
dpmand just move to weekly ones as the event date approaches13:01
svijwell for today I would just have two (or three) things13:01
svij1.) We still need the blog :/13:01
dpmsvij, sure13:01
svij2.) I've contact to someone from Microsoft for sponsoring, we need to talk about the brochure and finish that13:02
svij3.) Not sure what the state of dholbach s reachout to canonical people for talks is13:02
dholbachsvij, what I said last time: I mailed around 30-40 people from all over Europe and had no replies yet13:02
svij:(13:03
dholbachit was some time before release so I expect they were all busy and felt "that's still a long time until then"13:03
dholbachso totally understandable13:03
dholbachif you want me to mail them again, let me know what you'd like to say and I'll send a mail out13:04
svijI thought you already did that after the release13:04
dholbachwhat do you want me to say in the mail?13:05
svij"Submit a talk to UbuCon EU. NOW!"13:05
svijjust kidding. :)13:06
svijwhat did you write in the first mail?13:06
dholbachsvij, http://paste.ubuntu.com/16345637/13:09
popeyI know Martin from Ubuntu MATE is keen to do a talk :)13:09
dpmpopey, \o/ would you mind adding him to https://trello.com/b/vrvHS6sk/ubucon-europe ?13:12
svijpopey: dpm: I've wrote to him a few days ago, he said he'll talk to me in a couple of days. :)13:12
dpmexcellent13:12
popeydone13:13
svijdholbach: ah looks good. What about a simple "hey, I got nothing, hope you saw it" kind of mail?13:13
svijpopey: can you add your details to your talk soon, too? :)13:13
svijdpm: the only thing which is worrying me is, that it's still hard to get a decent amount of talks to send the final invitation to mark and jane :/13:15
dholbachsvij, let me know if there's anything else I should put in there... I'd like to avoid sending lots of mails to everyone, so we better include it all in one mail13:19
dpmmhall119, can you attend the ubucon call today to talk about sponsorships?  ^13:22
dholbachdpm, do you need me in the call too? I have no updates13:27
mhall119dpm: I can if you need me, otherwise I'd prefer to skip13:28
mhall119dpm: I haven't send the inquiry to legal yet about how to handle the contract, so I don't have anything to add today13:28
svijdholbach: currently I don't know what we should add. Except maybe some of the already known speakers (which aren't much yet)13:28
svijmhall119: do we need canonical legal?13:28
svijwe had a few small sponsorships in the past which we handled ourself, we could do that here too13:29
svijand that might be even easier for all us of, because we're paying the venue13:30
mhall119svij: we may not need to go through them for the sponsorships, but I need to confirm that there is no trademark issues with you collecting money for an Ubuntu event13:30
dpmsvij, mhall119, so do you want to discuss the sponsorship brochure here or in the call?13:31
mhall119since everything for the UbuCon Summit in California went through Canonical13:31
svijmhall119: ah okay13:31
svijI think I'm fine now, from my sight13:31
svijif you could ask that, that would be good, mhall11913:31
jcastromhall119: on my intel laptop if I login to the unity8 session with that ppa I just get a black screen13:31
mhall119me too, I'll send that inquiry today and let you know13:31
svijgreat, thanks13:32
mhall119jcastro: you need a citrain silo, I used 53, but double-check in #ubuntu-unity which one has the libhybris fix, it may be different now13:32
mhall119jcastro: FWIW, I'm writing up all my instructions and work arounds right now13:32
svijdpm: can I hope that we somehow manage to get the blog on ubucon.org working by this week? It's already taking too much time. :(13:32
jcastrook I'll just wait for your instructions13:33
dpmsvij, I don't know if I'll be able to do it this week, but that should not block us from posting from somewhere else such as the Fridge13:33
jcastromarcoceppi: have you had a full month in your new place yet? 22 leaves in April for me13:33
svijdpm: ok, I'll talk to marius about the contest then13:33
marcoceppijcastro: you ready?13:34
dpmsvij, great, thanks!13:34
marcoceppijcastro: 28, you?13:34
jcastroyou win13:35
jcastro2213:35
jcastrojose: can you try to see what happens if you just ask the travel agent to book your travel?13:36
dholbachsvij, sent another mail13:38
svijdholbach: thanks <313:40
dpmpopey, dholbach, mhall119, davidcalle, unless one of you wants to run the Q&A today, I propose postponing until we've worked on the preparation of the new guests format we discussed at UOS13:53
dholbachwfm13:54
popeywill we have time to do it next week?13:55
popeywill be during our sprint13:55
davidcallewe should give it a go, all of us in in the same {room|starbucks|bench in front of mcdonalds} will make for a fun Q&A13:57
dpmI'll add it to the agenda. I initially put 1h slots, but we should probably partition some into 30 min slots, as some smaller topics won't need the full hour13:58
dpmthe Q&A itself is already in the schedule13:58
dholbachyep, I put it in there13:58
dpmbut we should add the prep part too13:58
dpmwe already had the discussion at UOS, so this will be more about going through the work items13:59
popeyah so it is :)14:00
popeyskimmed right past that14:00
belkinsaAre you guys aware that the UOS site is down: http://summit.ubuntu.com/ ?14:07
popeyblame mhall11914:08
belkinsalol14:08
svijtime to change the famous hashtag from #blamepopey to #blamecommunityteam :)14:09
svij:P14:09
popeyfine by me14:09
dpmhas someone filed an RT? Otherwise I'll go ahead and do it14:28
mhall119belkinsa: it's not down, the homepage is just broken14:28
mhall119dpm: will be one minute, fixing summit14:30
* dpm envisions mhall119 in his superhero costume14:30
mhall119I'm Quick-And-Dirty-Hack-To-Make-It-Work Man14:31
mhall119technical debt is my super-power14:31
* davidcalle can hear the crowd cheering14:32
dpmthat's how we roll14:32
mhall119dpm: are you in the hangout? I thought it said you were, but now it says waiting for people to join14:32
* mhall119 will be disappointed if the above conversation isn't on the internal quotes page14:33
dpmI was and I dropped, omw again14:33
mhall119who's doing the Q&A today? do we have a guest?14:50
belkinsamhall119: ah and oh, I see.14:51
Absurd-sugestionQUESTION: Is the community Q&A ubuntuonair happening today, or not ?15:01
Absurd-sugestionerr Herllo15:03
dpmAbsurd-sugestion, answered your question directly on #ubuntu-on-air15:03
Absurd-sugestiondpm, thanks.15:06
Absurd-sugestionI get my Nexus 4 with Ubuntu pre-loaded tomorrow :)15:07
dpm\o/15:08
Absurd-sugestioncost £90 GBP.15:08
Absurd-sugestioncheaper and more powerful than the Meixu thingys or those bq jobbers.15:08
dpmAbsurd-sugestion, next thing to try, connecting it to a monitor? :)15:09
Absurd-sugestionwill do - is there a bug for that (on t'Nexus 4) or does it just work ?15:10
popeywith a slimport, it works15:13
dpmI think nowadays you don't need to install any extra packages and it should just work when you connect a slimport adapter to a monitor15:13
dpmthere you go :)15:13
* Absurd-sugestion googles slimport ...15:23
=== chuck__ is now known as zul
Absurd-sugestionWhey hey hey ! £8/9 good-oh http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/17214260826015:25
dpmI think so, popey, mhall119, that looks like an adapter that could work for the N4, right? ^15:26
popeyshould do, yeah15:42
popeyi bought mine at amazon, they vary in quality15:42
dpmI'm not too happy with mine (which is not that model, btw^), every now and then the image goes black, which I first thought it was Ubuntu related, which I then tested with another N4 with Android to be the same case15:57
dpmmore hardware-related, it seems15:58
mhall119dpm: possibly, but it's different from the one I have so no guarantees15:58
mhall119"slimport" was evidently a very loose standard15:58
mhall119it says it works with a Nexus 4 though15:58
mhall119as long as it's hardware-compatible, the software should work15:59
=== chuck__ is now known as zul
dholbachI call it a day - see you tomorrow! :-)16:48
