| pleia2 | anyone here for the Ubuntu California meeting? :) | 02:01 |
| pleia2 | our agenda is looking pretty sparse as well | 02:04 |

| RogueScholar | I'm here for the meeting, sorry was AFK. | 02:05 |
| pleia2 | welcome RogueScholar :) | 02:06 |
| pleia2 | so we start these things off by talking about upcoming events | 02:06 |
| pleia2 | #topic Upcoming events | 02:06 |
| RogueScholar | Much obliged, Pleia2. Glad to be here. :) | 02:06 |
| pleia2 | I don't have anything scheduled for San Francisco at the moment (I've been too busy) but there is a local who is interested in helping out and to whom I owe an email | 02:07 |
| pleia2 | the monthly Ubuntu Hours in Pasadena are still happening, can see details and RSVP on our meetup page https://www.meetup.com/Ubuntu-California/ | 02:07 |
| darthrobot` | Title: [Ubuntu California LoCo (Los Angeles, CA)| Meetup] | 02:07 |
| pleia2 | next one is on May 11th, they happen right before the San Gabriel Valley Linux User Group meeting, so it's a good night | 02:07 |
| pleia2 | I think that's all we really have event-wise | 02:08 |
| pleia2 | #topic Any other business | 02:08 |
| pleia2 | this is the wild west part of the meeting :) | 02:08 |
| pleia2 | RogueScholar: what brings you here? | 02:09 |
| RogueScholar | Well I've been in IT for going on a couple decades now, and I feel like part of my professional development at this stage needs to be promoting the causes that I care about. | 02:10 |
| pleia2 | that's great to hear, using Ubuntu where you work? | 02:10 |
| RogueScholar | Haha, don't I wish. No I get to save that enjoyment for my personal PCs and homelab. | 02:11 |
| pleia2 | ah, fair enough, I remember those days | 02:11 |
| RogueScholar | Truth be told, I'm not much of a Linux veteran, I think I onboarded with 14.04. | 02:12 |
| pleia2 | that's ok, always people coming and going from linux spheres, so it's nice to see new blood | 02:12 |
| RogueScholar | Thanks, I'm relieved to see that there's not a certain threshold of prior involvement in order to participate here. | 02:13 |
| pleia2 | not at all, I always like to say that if you've been using Ubuntu a day longer than someone else, you have something to teach ;) | 02:13 |
| RogueScholar | In regards to your mention of a San Francisco event, I too am a NorCal person, though a few hours north of SF, so please keep me in mind for activities up in this area. | 02:14 |
| pleia2 | a lot of our month to month events are pretty basic, "Ubuntu Hours" where we just go to a coffee shop and chat about the latest Ubuntu news and projects we're working on (both at work and as hobbies) | 02:14 |
| pleia2 | oh, good to know, have you been to North Bay LUG before? it's in Sebastopol http://nblug.org/ | 02:14 |
| darthrobot` | Title: [North Bay Linux Users’ Group] | 02:14 |
| RogueScholar | No I haven't, but I know Sebastopol very well, it's barely a couple hours away. I'm bookmarking them as we chat. :) | 02:15 |
| pleia2 | nice folks, often have super interesting meetings | 02:15 |
| pleia2 | I wish I could make it up, but from SF it's quite the hike on a week night | 02:15 |
| RogueScholar | Oh you're based up north as well? | 02:15 |
| pleia2 | I live in downtown SF | 02:16 |
| RogueScholar | In looking over the group page it seemed there was a heavy slant towards SoCal, so I just kind of assumed the leadership probably resided there as well. | 02:16 |
| pleia2 | we're pretty spread out :) | 02:17 |
| RogueScholar | Well if I can drive to Sebastopol from Fort Bragg, then you can make the trek too. ;) | 02:17 |
| pleia2 | haha | 02:17 |
| pleia2 | I also work with a non-profit based in the bay area, Partimus.org, so some of our time is spent working with low-incoming housing facilities and schools (though fewer schools now) to put Linux-based machines in for residents and students | 02:18 |
| pleia2 | I'd say right now that's where most of my effort is focused Ubuntu-wise locally, instead of Ubuntu Hours | 02:19 |
| RogueScholar | Oh no kidding?? I was just reading about their work not long ago, I wish I could recall where. | 02:19 |
| pleia2 | alright, I think we'll wrap up this meeting | 02:22 |
| pleia2 | usually nhandler and lynorian at least are also here, but quiet night :) | 02:22 |
| pleia2 | err, nhaines | 02:23 |
| RogueScholar | It happens; spring is in the air. | 02:23 |
| pleia2 | but sometimes nhandler too! he's in london right now though | 02:23 |
| pleia2 | hope you got out to enjoy the weather today :) was gorgeous down here | 02:23 |
| pleia2 | and with that, let's conclude! | 02:24 |

| pleia2 | woo | 02:26 |
| RogueScholar | If you ever happen to make it up to the hinterlands (Mendocino Co.), I hope you'll let me know so I can treat you to a meal. | 02:27 |

| * lyn||ian wonders if RogueScholar has been to point arena | 03:02 | |
| lyn||ian | and hi Roguescholar | 03:02 |
| RogueScholar | HI lyn||ian, and I've been to Point Arena many many times as it so happens. :) | 03:03 |
| lyn||ian | I don't actually live there just a place in pathfinder rpg is based off point arena as it was James Jacobs hometown and he based it off that | 03:04 |
| lyn||ian | this has made me to the point I want to visit | 03:04 |
| RogueScholar | Wow, that's rather intriguing. I do encourage anyone who has the opportunity to take a trip there, so long as they realize there's really only enough to actively engage you for a few hours at best. | 03:21 |
