[12:59] <dpm> hi svij, so I was thinking about UbuCon EU
[13:00] <svij> dpm: yes?
[13:00] <dpm> I 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 report
[13:01] <dpm> and just move to weekly ones as the event date approaches
[13:01] <svij> well for today I would just have two (or three) things
[13:01] <svij> 1.) We still need the blog :/
[13:01] <dpm> svij, sure
[13:02] <svij> 2.) I've contact to someone from Microsoft for sponsoring, we need to talk about the brochure and finish that
[13:02] <svij> 3.) Not sure what the state of dholbach s reachout to canonical people for talks is
[13:02] <dholbach> svij, what I said last time: I mailed around 30-40 people from all over Europe and had no replies yet
[13:03] <svij> :(
[13:03] <dholbach> it was some time before release so I expect they were all busy and felt "that's still a long time until then"
[13:03] <dholbach> so totally understandable
[13:04] <dholbach> if you want me to mail them again, let me know what you'd like to say and I'll send a mail out
[13:04] <svij> I thought you already did that after the release
[13:05] <dholbach> what do you want me to say in the mail?
[13:05] <svij> "Submit a talk to UbuCon EU. NOW!"
[13:06] <svij> just kidding. :)
[13:06] <svij> what did you write in the first mail?
[13:09] <dholbach> svij, http://paste.ubuntu.com/16345637/
[13:09] <popey> I know Martin from Ubuntu MATE is keen to do a talk :)
[13:12] <dpm> popey, \o/ would you mind adding him to https://trello.com/b/vrvHS6sk/ubucon-europe ?
[13:12] <svij> popey: dpm: I've wrote to him a few days ago, he said he'll talk to me in a couple of days. :)
[13:12] <dpm> excellent
[13:13] <popey> done
[13:13] <svij> dholbach: ah looks good. What about a simple "hey, I got nothing, hope you saw it" kind of mail?
[13:13] <svij> popey: can you add your details to your talk soon, too? :)
[13:15] <svij> dpm: 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 :/
[13:19] <dholbach> svij, 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 mail
[13:22] <dpm> mhall119, can you attend the ubucon call today to talk about sponsorships?  ^
[13:27] <dholbach> dpm, do you need me in the call too? I have no updates
[13:28] <mhall119> dpm: I can if you need me, otherwise I'd prefer to skip
[13:28] <mhall119> dpm: I haven't send the inquiry to legal yet about how to handle the contract, so I don't have anything to add today
[13:28] <svij> dholbach: currently I don't know what we should add. Except maybe some of the already known speakers (which aren't much yet)
[13:28] <svij> mhall119: do we need canonical legal?
[13:29] <svij> we had a few small sponsorships in the past which we handled ourself, we could do that here too
[13:30] <svij> and that might be even easier for all us of, because we're paying the venue
[13:30] <mhall119> svij: 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 event
[13:31] <dpm> svij, mhall119, so do you want to discuss the sponsorship brochure here or in the call?
[13:31] <mhall119> since everything for the UbuCon Summit in California went through Canonical
[13:31] <svij> mhall119: ah okay
[13:31] <svij> I think I'm fine now, from my sight
[13:31] <svij> if you could ask that, that would be good, mhall119
[13:31] <jcastro> mhall119: on my intel laptop if I login to the unity8 session with that ppa I just get a black screen
[13:31] <mhall119> me too, I'll send that inquiry today and let you know
[13:32] <svij> great, thanks
[13:32] <mhall119> jcastro: you need a citrain silo, I used 53, but double-check in #ubuntu-unity which one has the libhybris fix, it may be different now
[13:32] <mhall119> jcastro: FWIW, I'm writing up all my instructions and work arounds right now
[13:32] <svij> dpm: 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. :(
[13:33] <jcastro> ok I'll just wait for your instructions
[13:33] <dpm> svij, 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 Fridge
[13:33] <jcastro> marcoceppi: have you had a full month in your new place yet? 22 leaves in April for me
[13:33] <svij> dpm: ok, I'll talk to marius about the contest then
[13:34] <marcoceppi> jcastro: you ready?
[13:34] <dpm> svij, great, thanks!
[13:34] <marcoceppi> jcastro: 28, you?
[13:35] <jcastro> you win
[13:35] <jcastro> 22
[13:36] <jcastro> jose: can you try to see what happens if you just ask the travel agent to book your travel?
[13:38] <dholbach> svij, sent another mail
[13:40] <svij> dholbach: thanks <3
[13:53] <dpm> popey, 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 UOS
[13:54] <dholbach> wfm
[13:55] <popey> will we have time to do it next week?
[13:55] <popey> will be during our sprint
[13:57] <davidcalle> we 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&A
[13:58] <dpm> I'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 hour
[13:58] <dpm> the Q&A itself is already in the schedule
[13:58] <dholbach> yep, I put it in there
[13:58] <dpm> but we should add the prep part too
[13:59] <dpm> we already had the discussion at UOS, so this will be more about going through the work items
[14:00] <popey> ah so it is :)
[14:00] <popey> skimmed right past that
[14:07] <belkinsa> Are you guys aware that the UOS site is down: http://summit.ubuntu.com/ ?
[14:08] <popey> blame mhall119
[14:08] <belkinsa> lol
[14:09] <svij> time to change the famous hashtag from #blamepopey to #blamecommunityteam :)
[14:09] <svij> :P
[14:09] <popey> fine by me
[14:28] <dpm> has someone filed an RT? Otherwise I'll go ahead and do it
[14:28] <mhall119> belkinsa: it's not down, the homepage is just broken
[14:30] <mhall119> dpm: will be one minute, fixing summit
[14:30]  * dpm envisions mhall119 in his superhero costume
[14:31] <mhall119> I'm Quick-And-Dirty-Hack-To-Make-It-Work Man
[14:31] <mhall119> technical debt is my super-power
[14:32]  * davidcalle can hear the crowd cheering
[14:32] <dpm> that's how we roll
[14:32] <mhall119> dpm: are you in the hangout? I thought it said you were, but now it says waiting for people to join
[14:33]  * mhall119 will be disappointed if the above conversation isn't on the internal quotes page
[14:33] <dpm> I was and I dropped, omw again
[14:50] <mhall119> who's doing the Q&A today? do we have a guest?
[14:51] <belkinsa> mhall119: ah and oh, I see.
[15:01] <Absurd-sugestion> QUESTION: Is the community Q&A ubuntuonair happening today, or not ?
[15:03] <Absurd-sugestion> err Herllo
[15:03] <dpm> Absurd-sugestion, answered your question directly on #ubuntu-on-air
[15:06] <Absurd-sugestion> dpm, thanks.
[15:07] <Absurd-sugestion> I get my Nexus 4 with Ubuntu pre-loaded tomorrow :)
[15:08] <dpm> \o/
[15:08] <Absurd-sugestion> cost £90 GBP.
[15:08] <Absurd-sugestion> cheaper and more powerful than the Meixu thingys or those bq jobbers.
[15:09] <dpm> Absurd-sugestion, next thing to try, connecting it to a monitor? :)
[15:10] <Absurd-sugestion> will do - is there a bug for that (on t'Nexus 4) or does it just work ?
[15:13] <popey> with a slimport, it works
[15:13] <dpm> I think nowadays you don't need to install any extra packages and it should just work when you connect a slimport adapter to a monitor
[15:13] <dpm> there you go :)
[15:23]  * Absurd-sugestion googles slimport ...
[15:25] <Absurd-sugestion> Whey hey hey ! £8/9 good-oh http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/172142608260
[15:26] <dpm> I think so, popey, mhall119, that looks like an adapter that could work for the N4, right? ^
[15:42] <popey> should do, yeah
[15:42] <popey> i bought mine at amazon, they vary in quality
[15:57] <dpm> I'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 case
[15:58] <dpm> more hardware-related, it seems
[15:58] <mhall119> dpm: possibly, but it's different from the one I have so no guarantees
[15:58] <mhall119> "slimport" was evidently a very loose standard
[15:58] <mhall119> it says it works with a Nexus 4 though
[15:59] <mhall119> as long as it's hardware-compatible, the software should work
[16:48] <dholbach> I call it a day - see you tomorrow! :-)
[16:58] <Kilos> hi guys. can the teams moving or sorting our wiki problems include Na3iL , he has time and the ability to help
[17:21] <mhall119> Kilos: sure, we're going to try and work out a set of "next steps" during our sprint next week
[17:21] <mhall119> Na3iL: will you be around on IRC monday and tuesday of next week?

[17:52] <mhall119> Kilos: Na3iL: the most likely target is a switch to mediawiki, but we need to detail everything that would require
[17:52] <Kilos> good luck all you guys
