nhainesOoh, I finished building my own Puritine container just in time.  Now all the desktop app icons on my tablet work, and also I can stop wasting time on that and get stuff done.  :)01:58
nhainesPlus, I took my guitar out of the closet and tuned it.  All the strings were down a half step.  Now back in the closet for another 7 years!02:00
* nhaines will learn to play some day.02:00

* ianorlin is not currently planning any02:02
nhaines#topic Announcements02:03
pleia2nothing from me here eitehr02:03
nhainesThe Ubuntu Online Summit wrapped up 10 days ago.02:03
nhainesIt was a fun UOS and there was a lot discussed.  Ubuntu 16.04 LTS put a lot of technolgies into place that are going to build the last stages of convergence.02:04
nhainesTons of plans and roadmaps were revealed, and you can see a track summary session held by all the track leads here: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uos-1605/meeting/22691/track-summaries/02:04
darthrobot`Title: [Track Summaries - | The Summit Scheduler]02:04
nhainesAnd you can also view replays of all of the sessions as well.02:05
nhainesAre there any other announcements at this time?02:05
nhainesOkay then, on to our first agenda item.02:08
nhaines#topic 16.04 Release Parties02:08
pleia2so, we haven't had any yet02:08
nhaines\o/02:08
pleia2I couldn't find a venue on release day here in San Francisco, and then had to postpone until I have more time to organize02:09
pleia2I don't have time yet, but I hope to get something set up for July or so02:09
ianorlinpleia2 good idea02:09
pleia2July is when 16.04.1 comes out, which prompts all the upgrades from 14.04, kind of like a 2nd release day ;)02:10
nhainesAnd now things like the Ubuntu Software Store actually work.  :)02:10
pleia2hah, right02:10
pleia2hopefully we'll know more about the usb sticks for 16.04 release too02:11
pleia2there was never an announcement that they were available for locos to request02:11
pleia2(no word on dvd availability either, but there were murmurs about them dropping them entirely)02:12
nhainesAlso they're still not available in the Canonical Store.02:12
pleia2yeah, I saw someone complain about that the other day02:12
nhainesThe last I heard from Canonical, there would be no DVDs, and when I complained in an UOS session on video they didn't seem too sympathetic.  :)02:12
pleia2heh02:13
pleia2if anyone has any downtown SF venue ideas, feel free to let me know (or reply on list to the thread where we're talking about it)02:13
nhainesAlthough there was talk about producing DVD artwork anyway.02:13
pleia2I'll work to reach out to folks and stuff once I have a bit more time02:13
pleia2that's all from me02:13
nhainesSounds good.02:14
DonkeyHoteiwhy the requirement it be downtown?02:14
pleia2DonkeyHotei: it's where I live and I'm running the party02:16
pleia2also good public transit from all over the bay02:16
pleia2but mostly that I'm the one hauling everything over to the venue, so I don't want to go across town02:17
nhainesSeems reasonable enough.  :)02:18
nhainesNo one's volunteered to run a party in SoCal and I'm overbooked, so at the moment there aren't any plans.02:19
nhainesBut if somebody *did* want to, they could let me know and I would try to show up with an Ubuntu tablet that does stuff.02:19
nhainesOkay, so that's the end of our agenda.02:21
nhaines#topic Other Business02:21
nhainesIs there anything else anyone wanted to discuss?02:21
pleia2nothing here02:24
nhainesI'm going to start discussions with a local library about giving a couple of talks on Ubuntu and/or my Ubuntu book.02:25
DonkeyHoteithe new member moratorium?02:25
pleia2great02:25
nhainesSo I'll keep everyone informed if that goes off.  :)02:25
nhaineskicks off!02:25
nhaines(I almost said "goes well.")02:25
pleia2DonkeyHotei: on launchpad?02:25
DonkeyHoteiyes02:25
DonkeyHoteiany updates?02:25
pleia2we don't really use launchpad, so I wouldn't go as far as calling it a "new member moratorium"02:25
pleia2it's just temporarily paused until some of the wiki stuff can be sorted02:26
pleia2(our team is an open team, so spammers were joining to try to get access to the ubuntu wiki)02:26
nhainesI will note that this seems to have stopped as far as the joining bit goes.02:26
pleia2to be clear, people don't need to be part of the launchpad team, or need to know what launchpad is, to consider themselves a member of this team :)02:26
=== ianorlin is now known as lynorian
nhainesYes, anyone in California who wants to promote Ubuntu is welcome.  :)02:27
nhainespleia2: if you wanted to set the team back to open, I think it's probably safe to do so now.02:28
pleia2nhaines: I'd rather not, it only stopped because we locked down the wiki even further, as soon as that lets up we'll have to re-mod and I don't have the time to hover over it right now02:29
nhainespleia2: I'm okay with this, too.02:29
DonkeyHoteithirded02:30
lynorianuh I hate the wiki spammers and can tell from pleia2 reaction at scale was harder02:30
pleia2I'll make sure it's on my list when a long-term wiki solution presents itself02:30
lynorianpleia2, yeah02:30
nhainesWe should also maybe discuss changing how Launchpad fits into LoCo membership.02:31
nhainesA little later down the road, anyway.02:31
* pleia2 nods02:31
lynoriando we need launchpad for say election of new leaders ?02:31
pleia2lynorian: good point02:31
pleia2and for the flyers and cd sleeves, which allows members direct committing to the repository rather than doing a merge request02:32
lynoriancan't we manual add people still?02:32
pleia2yep02:32
nhainesWe do *not*, but we use it for such now.02:32
DonkeyHoteiwe could just as easily use the mailing list roster for civs mails for elections02:32
pleia2yeah, we could02:33
nhainesWe'll have to consider that carefully before making any policy changes.02:34
nhainesWell, we'll have to see how the wiki drama pans out, too.02:36
* pleia2 nods02:36
nhainesAny other comments before we wrap things up?02:36
* lynorian does not have anything02:39
pleia2thanks for chairing :)02:39
nhainesYou're welcome.   :)02:40
nhainesOkay then, that wraps up this week's meeting.  We'll see you all on May 29th for our next meeting!02:40

nhainespleia2: thanks!02:51
toddcNote I emailed to get 16.04 DVD's and was told that they will be usb drives but no ETA on shipping at this time02:54
pleia2toddc: ah, who did you email?02:54
toddc1 sec looking email adress02:55

daxI guess the narrative changed from "we're focusing on phones first" ;)04:28
nhainesdax: nah, moving the phones to snappy makes phones better--but makes all Ubuntu better, too.09:15
nhainesThe sooner everything is exactly one code base, the sooner everything benefits from every development again.09:29
