Kilosyou are welcome to help revive things13:58
Kilosits almost a world wide problem with locos fading13:58
Kilosmainly from traditional things like irc13:58
Kiloseveryone has gone facebook crazy13:59
ashabadi_actually I had to leave due to my job... now a days I don't get to have much spare time to invest over internet13:59

Kilosso do i13:59
Kilosbut we will slowly grow this channel and get things going again14:00
Kilosjust need more guys to hang out here14:00
ashabadi_at one point we had 500 strong member pool with dedicated support & volunteer group14:01
ashabadi_but then everyone got busy and the transition was not good14:01
ashabadi_now even when we invite members this channel is largly remains vacant14:04
ashabadi_your background story and mine are almost similar :)14:06
Kilosin south africa we ar strong on irc and always someone there to help14:11
Kilosits the rest of the world14:12
Kilospeople can join FB but they cant apply for ubuntu membership from it14:12
Kilosi am busy with the loco council to see if we can make some or other plan to help fb users get involved in ubuntu itself14:13
Kilosyou guys have many clever people there14:13
ashabadi_lol really? good to know that14:14
ashabadi_hi little tux_14:14

ashabadiKilos: can you guide AudaciousTUX how to revive the loco activity?14:26
ashabadihe was actually interested to revive the project...14:26
Kiloscool14:26
AudaciousTUXyah :)14:26
Kilosfirstly invite as many here as possible14:26
AudaciousTUXokay14:27
Kilosi have been here daily for many months now14:27
Kilosand pavlushka also appears when he has power14:27
ashabadiyou were so lonely I guess :(14:27
Kilosi am on 14 ubuntu channels i thinks14:28
ashabaditough to manage?14:28
Kilossometimes i battle to keep up14:28
ashabadihmm14:29
AudaciousTUXmissing nusha :(14:29
ashabadithe problem we had earlier in this channel was that we did not have linux experts14:29
ashabadimostly young guys who are eager to volunteer/write article/distribute disks14:30
ashabadibut rarely dedicated experts out there14:30
Kilosthats not a prob. pavlushka is quite clued up14:30
ashabadithat's great14:31
Kilosand ill help where i can and point guys to where they can get more expert help14:31
ashabadiwe had provided support via mailing list which was pretty active till a year ago14:31
Kilosi prefer irc for helping guys, mailing lists become painful14:32
Kilosirc is almost face to face help14:32
ashabadiyes mailing list takes time to resolve problem... irc is instant14:33
ashabadibut in todays fast world its tough to encourage people to move to irc instead of facebook/imo/viber14:34
AudaciousTUXor telegram :p14:34
Kilosyes i agree14:34
Kilosbut to get ahead in ubuntu one has to use irc14:34
Kilosyour fb is over 400 members if i remember right14:35
Kilosthere must be linux experts there as well14:35
Kilosthe thing is to get them to hangout here as well14:36
ashabadifb is over 12k users yet we don't find members hanging out here14:36
Kilosstrange14:37
Kilosyou guys need to invite them14:37

pavlushkaok, ashabadi , I know you, an admin of bd-loco!19:31
ashabadilol bd loco is dead19:31
ashabadiand I was not an admin, rather contributor/promoter19:32
pavlushkabut not you19:32
ashabadipartilally dead...19:32
ashabadiwhen you stop giving time to things that matters to you you do die a bit19:32
pavlushkamay be19:33
pavlushkabut its good that you are19:33
pavlushkaback19:33
ashabadiI have been on and off19:33
ashabadiI think you are already in facebook group.. right?19:34
pavlushkayep19:34
ashabadiit would be nice if you can discuss with people there and try to revive the loco again19:34
ashabadiI shall try my best to give support to you19:35
pavlushkaI am not the admin19:35
ashabadiyou don't have to be an admin19:35
ashabadito contribute19:35
pavlushkaand that would be great19:35
ashabadiwhen I started I was not an admin19:35
pavlushkayeah, I do contribute19:35
ashabadiI know you do19:35
ashabadiI meant that why not start a project to build an address a webpage/landing address? consolidating the solutions posted in fb in that portal would be nice19:36
ashabadiI think I can try retrieving old tutorials what ever can be retrived/reused19:36
ashabadicurrently there are no landing page19:37
pavlushkaIt needs a little money for the domain and hosting that I cant afford right now., :)19:39
ashabadiit should not be a problem if we really set on doing it19:41
pavlushkaI am on, who else?19:41
ashabadibut again making the page is not that much effort... the real issue is maintaining & contributing to it19:41
ashabadilast time all thing went hayware cause we did not have time/effort to give19:42
pavlushkaI am trying to be here and maintain it as a help contributor!19:42
ashabadiI think Tanjim is interested, and if searched in FB group few others would be interested19:42
pavlushkawe got here zaki from chittagong19:42
ashabadibring your friends over on irc to make this channel a good place to talk about19:43
pavlushkaHe is in FB-BD too19:43
ashabadiyes have talked to him in the past19:43
pavlushkaand we have a group of FB friends here https://web.facebook.com/groups/767836696651246/?ref=bookmarks19:45
ashabadiits redundent to have differrent fb page... but carry on any way you wish to help people19:46
pavlushkaits a bit quicker  to get help and less restrictive.19:46
pavlushkaand we are friends19:48
ashabadiwhen group grows restriction needs to be there... you will get it over tiime :)19:48
pavlushkathe point is , all of them I know and my FB Friends, so they wont do some offensive thing and I can react after all.19:49
ashabadino issue carry on...19:50
pavlushkaBut I hope before My group will grow to that size, Ubuntu-bd-loco will regrow, and good news is we got +1 now, you, :)19:51
ashabadiI am not available19:53
ashabadialready taken.... 19:53

pavlushkaashabadi: so you got married I guess, :p19:53
pavlushkaashabadi: You are still alive not dead, look at your nick, its ashabadi ..19:54
ashabadithere is a long story behind that nick19:55
ashabadiits sort of auto suggestions19:55
ashabadiyes I got married but even my wife does not get much time from me...19:55
pavlushkaashabadi: but after that it got a meaning, your nick.19:56
ashabadiinfact she often leaves me for not giving her enough time... currently she is away at her mother's house for the same reason19:57
pavlushkagive 20 minutes to Ubuntu daily, if that is possible., be here.19:57
ashabadidaily won't be possible.. perhaps I will be available on Thursday night19:57
ashabadithough can't promise anything19:57
pavlushkaand give the rest of your time to your wife19:58
ashabadiin the past I tried but could not manage time/effort19:58
pavlushkaashabadi: Yes that can promise a lot, to us , who are trying, it means we are not alone.19:58
ashabadiand even if I come here I don't think I will be discussing about Ubuntu anymore19:58
pavlushkasomeone else is there, and atleast knows that we are trying.19:58
ashabadihumm true19:59
pavlushkaashabadi: not necessary, you can give us a 20 minute fun break, :p19:59
