[12:06] <czajkowski> Aloha
[12:06] <Kilos> hi czajkowski
[13:37] <jcastro> dpm: dude, jamie's post about snapping an electron app. +50!
[13:37] <jcastro> open the floodgates please!
[13:38] <dpm> jcastro, link? (sorry, I've been offline for a week)
[13:38] <dpm> just got back today and catching up
[13:39] <jcastro> http://www.linuxuk.org/post/20160518_snapping_electron_based_applications_simplenote/
[13:39] <jcastro> oh ok, sorry I didn't know you were gone
[13:39] <jcastro> so here, have some awesome news
[13:39] <dpm> awesome, thanks
[13:39] <dpm> np, it was just a bit unexpected, but I'm back
[15:56] <Na3iL> Hey all, well I have a question, what's the process to organize UbunCon in my local area? I am very lazy to duckduck it x)
[16:18] <dpm> hi Na3iL, would you mind sending an e-mail to ubuntu-community-team(at)lists(dot)ubuntu(dot)com and we can explain it there in detail?
[16:20] <svij> I always wanted to write something down (aka documentation) on how to start organising an UbuCon…
[16:26] <dpm> that'd be a good opportunity, then :)
[16:27] <dpm> I need to go, have a nice rest of the day everyone
[16:27] <Na3iL> OK dpm
[16:27] <Na3iL> svij, yep I think it's a good idea, after all, if you want to create a documentation about the whole process am ready to help :)
[16:31] <svij> Na3iL: my biggest issue is the time
[16:31] <svij> still have a lot to do for the upcomign ubucon europe
[16:32] <Na3iL> svij, if the problem of the wiki.ubuntu.com is resolved already we can set up a propre wiki page and work on it together
[16:32] <Na3iL> I just need the intiative from someone else :D
[16:32] <svij> finding a place for the documentation is not the biggest issue ;)
[16:32] <svij> where are you from?
[16:33] <Na3iL> I am from Tunisia
[16:33] <svij> ah nice
[16:35] <Na3iL> After all, it will be a good opportunity to do UbuCon in Africa, there's a very good LoCo teams there that need to move forward!
[16:35] <Na3iL> cc Kilos
[16:36] <Kilos> he is part of the ubuntu-africa group as well svij and does our wiki
[16:36] <svij> do you have a place like a school/university where it could take place?
[16:36] <Na3iL> Sure svij
[16:36] <Na3iL> I can figure this out :)
[16:36] <svij> Na3iL: ah perfect
[16:37] <svij> this is mostly the hardest thing - atleast for us (in germany)
[16:37] <svij> we tend to move around every year
[16:39] <Na3iL> Well, here in TN - Universities are a little excited to sponsor events especially for the Open-Source community
[16:40] <svij> we tried to get my university to host the ubucon, but they diclined our request and wanted a huge amount of money. It's complicated here. It's mostly good if you know someone with a good position at a university. We did two ubucons in berlin where we knew one professor.
[16:41] <Na3iL> Ah, I see
[16:41] <svij> but next to the venue. Something like trello makes sense, to check and organise all the todos.
[16:42] <svij> prepare flyers and posters for other open source events and at universities, hacker spaces etc.
[16:42] <svij> so you can also reach nice possible speakers
[16:44] <svij> but yes, it's a lot to write down. :)
[16:44] <Na3iL> Yep
[16:45] <svij> do you have any specific questions right now?
[16:45] <svij> I'm happy to help (and attend, if I can :D)
[16:45] <Na3iL> til now, nope I just need know how the process goes
[16:46] <Na3iL> Sure, we will be very proud to have you in the event :D
[16:46] <svij> :D
[16:46]  * svij is not that famous :P
[16:46] <Na3iL> hahahaha :D
[16:46] <svij> well there's no official progress.
[16:46] <svij> eh, process
[16:47] <svij> two mandatory things are a reliable team and a venue.
[16:47] <svij> after that it's all big and little organisation stuff
[16:48] <Na3iL> ah, okay
[16:49] <svij> and it might help to attend a UbuCon in another country to get an idea about the atmosphere, ideas, etc.
[16:49] <Na3iL> there's no discuss about the date, I mean what if two UbuCons in the same day
[16:49] <Na3iL> it's okay I think?
[16:49] <svij> yep, but the chances are pretty low
[16:50] <Na3iL> okay, that's cool
[16:50] <svij> there are not that many UbuCons. UbuCon Summit in the US, one in Paris, Germany and a couple of other in the US as a co-event next to a bigger conference
[16:52] <svij> the current dates are listed on ubucon.org at the bottom
[16:53] <Na3iL> okay, and then after the official things (preparing the program and the venue)
[16:53] <svij> yep
[16:53] <Na3iL> the event will be posted in ubucon.org I think, right?
[16:54] <svij> yep, you can get access (like I did) and you can use that page for all announcements/information
[16:54] <svij> you still can do your own page, if you can/like
[16:54] <Na3iL> pretty cool
