svij | jose: did you hear something regarding the sponsorship email? | 06:06 |
---|---|---|
jose | svij: hey, not yet. I hope soon, though, because I have my sponsors on the line | 06:06 |
svij | jose: ok | 06:06 |
davidcalle | Morning o/ | 07:50 |
jose | o/ | 07:54 |
svij | jose: you have 8 sponsors!? wow. | 08:26 |
jose | svij: possible sponsors, yep | 08:26 |
svij | nice. | 08:26 |
jose | talked to several people at oscon, most of them were marketing so they pointed me in the right direction | 08:26 |
svij | ah, nice | 08:27 |
* knome points jose to the wrong direction | 08:29 | |
knome | just for the variety | 08:29 |
jose | ohai knome! | 08:29 |
knome | hello :) | 08:29 |
jose | all set for California? | 08:31 |
knome | almost | 08:31 |
knome | i will be traveling VERY light which means i will have to see carefully what i take with me | 08:32 |
jose | I still haven't learnt how to travel light. the last time I tried, I ended up with a packed suitcase on my return | 08:34 |
knome | heh :) | 08:35 |
knome | my secret is that i'm usually throwing stuff away when traveling | 08:35 |
knome | kind of extreme, but... it helps me travel with a small backpack for up to a week | 08:35 |
knome | and yeah... no extra shoes, no extra sweater, nothing extra really | 08:37 |
knome | just prepare to buy something when traveling :) | 08:37 |
jose | I can't think of a time where I haven't checked a bag. | 08:41 |
jose | actually, yes, there was a time, but it was a one day trip | 08:41 |
knome | i did the UDS in copenhage with just the 20l~ish backpack | 08:44 |
knome | +n | 08:44 |
jose | oh wow, that's amazing | 08:44 |
knome | haha :) | 08:44 |
jose | I checked one bag because that was the maximum allowance, but in the return it was weighing 49.5lb out of the 50lb max | 08:45 |
knome | ugh | 08:45 |
knome | i mean, it's ok to have luggage if you travel with somebody else... then you can share the space and it is indeed more comfortable | 08:45 |
knome | but when traveling alone, i just like to go and not wait for luggage stuff and blah-di-blah, also helps navigating to/from the airport | 08:46 |
jose | miles <3 my bag always comes out first | 08:46 |
knome | hah, yeah | 08:46 |
knome | but nonetheless | 08:46 |
knome | then you need to take it to the hotel | 08:46 |
jose | last time Ian from S76 was waiting for me at the airport, and literally as I walked down the stairs the machine was spitting my bag out | 08:46 |
knome | :) | 08:47 |
jose | I actually tucked it under the table :P | 08:47 |
knome | hah | 08:47 |
jose | anyways, you do have a point - checked luggage can be bothersome. very. | 08:49 |
knome | yep | 08:50 |
knome | and what if it gets missing on the way... | 08:50 |
jose | oh! that happened to me in copenhagen, actually! | 08:50 |
jose | not missing, but delayed | 08:50 |
jose | they took it to my room the next day, but still | 08:50 |
knome | yeah | 08:57 |
knome | not funny when you have all your clothes there ;) | 08:57 |
jose | or if they give you a super small tshirt for backup | 09:02 |
knome | haha | 09:02 |
jose | anyways, time for me to go to bed | 09:10 |
jose | o/ | 09:10 |
knome | nighty! | 09:10 |
czajkowski | Aloha | 09:33 |
popey | who is doing Ubuntu On Air today? Was dholbach and myself last week. | 11:17 |
dpm | mhall119 and I can probably do it | 11:45 |
dpm | svij, you might have seen the notification, but I've moved the UbuCon call to Thursday - I'm planning to spend some time on the blog template | 11:47 |
svij | dpm: yep, I've seen it | 11:47 |
svij | I'm in London for a couple of days, so I probably can't join on thursday | 11:48 |
dpm | svij, ok, nevertheless I can hopefully get the blog in shape in the next couple of days. Otherwise, have fun in London :) | 11:50 |
svij | thanks. :) | 11:50 |
* svij added Jane as the first Keynote speaker \o/ http://ubucon.org/en/events/ubucon-europe/talks/#keynotes | 11:54 | |
dpm | \o/ | 11:56 |
czajkowski | for Ubucon EU do all the talks have to be about Ubuntu, or can there be other topic presentations ? | 12:00 |
dpm | I think we'd favour talks that are related to Ubuntu in one way or another, rather than it being a generic Open Source event. But that said, we can always have a discussion about other topics, what do you say svij? ^ | 12:21 |
mhall119 | dpm: I can do the Q&A today | 12:32 |
marcoceppi | popey: while I have "admin" on the site, the Discourse guys host it (as an fyi) | 12:44 |
czajkowski | marcoceppi: same as us :) | 12:45 |
czajkowski | marcoceppi: do you guys create any dashboards for questions or interactions? | 12:45 |
marcoceppi | czajkowski: this site is sorely underutilized and failed to take hold because of friction with the ubuntu forums, so we're about two seconds away from killing it off. I ahven't really explored the admin portion of the platform for quite a while | 12:46 |
popey | i don't think the lack of use is soley due to friction with ubuntu forums, but that didn't help | 12:49 |
popey | many people didn't know discourse even existed | 12:49 |
=== czajkowski is now known as LauraFautley | ||
svij | LauraFautley: what dpm said is correct. We have 4 rooms on two days available, so we can fit a lot of non-ubuntu stuff. :) | 14:05 |

dpm | mhall119, I've pre-scheduled the q&A hangout with the Ubuntu On Air account, but I don't seem to be able to start the hangout. Would you mind updating ubuntuonair.com with the links? | 14:41 |
mhall119 | dpm: on it | 14:57 |
dpm | I had to reinstall the Google hangouts plugin, now I can start it | 14:57 |
