| nhaines | #startmeeting | 03:00 |
| nhaines | Welcome to the November 4th Ubuntu California meeting! We have only two more left in the year, I think. :) | 03:00 |
| nhaines | Tonight's agenda is availble here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Meetings/18November04 | 03:00 |
| nhaines | #topic Upcoming events | 03:00 |
| nhaines | First up, are there any events that are coming up soon? | 03:00 |
| hangar18 | nothing on my end. | 03:01 |
| nhaines | Nothing I'm aware of. The call for papers of the Southern California Linux Expo has ended, but UbuCon is still accepting papers at the moment. | 03:02 |
| hangar18 | question! | 03:02 |
| nhaines | Yes! | 03:02 |
| hangar18 | about those papers. | 03:02 |
| hangar18 | are those like essays that you write? | 03:03 |
| hangar18 | that explains the talk that you want to do or something? | 03:03 |
| nhaines | They are abstracts the propose a presentation | 03:03 |
| nhaines | Basically the same as the descriptions you see on the conference websites, with a tiny bit more detail. | 03:03 |
| nhaines | But mostly more metadata, not so much more detailed blurbs. | 03:04 |
| hangar18 | so are they to get permission to do a presentation or details a presentation that'll take place? | 03:04 |
| nhaines | Yes, you submit them for consideration, and then the expo committee selects the talks they want. For UbuCon, Richard Gaskin and I make the selections. | 03:05 |
| lynorian | hello | 03:06 |
| nhaines | Hi, lynorian. | 03:06 |
| hangar18 | oh cool. sounds like fun. If I ever come up with something interesting to discuss, I may do that. | 03:06 |
| hangar18 | Hey, lynorian. | 03:06 |
| lynorian | oh really I did sumbit my first ubucon submission | 03:06 |
| hangar18 | lynorian: cool! Congratulations! | 03:07 |
| nhaines | hangar18: SCALE is a great place to give your first talk! It's a real, giant conference, but it still feels like a user group. A great way to get experience. Same for booth volunteering! | 03:07 |
| nhaines | lynorian: we did receive your submission, thank you. :) | 03:07 |
| hangar18 | I may get to volunteer this time around.\ | 03:07 |
| hangar18 | i asked my wife if she'd be interested in going with me and i think she's going to. | 03:08 |
| nhaines | That's great! :) | 03:08 |
| nhaines | Okay, moving on... | 03:09 |
| nhaines | #topic Announcements | 03:09 |
| nhaines | Any community announcements this week? | 03:09 |
| hangar18 | none here. still working on interview questions to hand out for future articles for full circle magazine. my free time gets divided up a lot with a lot of things. | 03:10 |
| hangar18 | oh! | 03:10 |
| hangar18 | I may have made a new contact for a future new team member on an app totally unrelated to ubuntu | 03:11 |
| nhaines | Oh, that's good news! | 03:11 |
| hangar18 | i plugged away for our team and i think this gentleman may show up sometime | 03:11 |
| nhaines | Send them to the mailing list, definitely. | 03:11 |
| nhaines | #topic Agenda | 03:12 |
| nhaines | The agenda is empty for this meeting. | 03:12 |
| nhaines | #topic Other business | 03:12 |
| nhaines | So first off, I want to say how great the LoCo's Twitter feed is doing this past month. | 03:12 |
| nhaines | Giant thanks to hangar18 for taking that on. :) | 03:12 |
| nhaines | You've really struck the right tone, I think. | 03:13 |
| pleia2 | I did hop on a couple times to add the scale cfp, but otherwise it's been all hangar18 :) | 03:13 |
| pleia2 | so yes, thank you \o/ | 03:13 |
| hangar18 | nhaines: THANK YOU!!! I was hoping to do a good job for everyone | 03:13 |

| * pleia2 thumbs up | 03:14 | |
| nhaines | I'm not on Twitter a lot, but my phone has pinged me often the past two weeks, so I've run into it. They're great. | 03:14 |
| nhaines | Thanks again. :) | 03:14 |
| nhaines | Is there any other other business this week? | 03:14 |
| hangar18 | I'd like to ask something about the tshirts I put togethe. | 03:15 |
| hangar18 | oops. together | 03:15 |
| pleia2 | nhaines: lmk if you or Richard need any scale help (including rounding up more speakers), I can't attend so I'd like to do *something* before the kiddo arrives in january :) | 03:15 |
| nhaines | Please! | 03:15 |
| hangar18 | do you need more details about it because I'd love to get that out into the open for everybody to have the chance to buy at cost. | 03:16 |
| nhaines | pleia2: thanks! :) We are light on submissions, as we always are late in the year. :) | 03:16 |
| pleia2 | ok, we'll chat | 03:18 |
| hangar18 | maybe some of us can meet somewhere in the middle for a team party or something before the baby comes. | 03:18 |
| nhaines | Can you send along the latest design? | 03:18 |
| nhaines | pleia2: I have an impossible deadling on the 15th and little time before that. If you like the shirt design, I'm good with that. | 03:19 |
| hangar18 | nhaines: yeah, I'll pull it up and get it over to you. I did change the font on the wording. | 03:19 |
| pleia2 | I don't have a strong opinion design-wise, not my forte :) | 03:19 |
| hangar18 | nhaines: ok, that's cool. I do like it so I'll get the details out to everyone | 03:19 |
| pleia2 | hangar18: alas, probably not being very mobile after thanksgiving ;) | 03:20 |
| nhaines | Okay, I'll carve out some time. Thank you. :) | 03:20 |
| hangar18 | pleia2: that's cool. | 03:21 |
| nhaines | pleia2: we'll hold the party via blue hologram! :) | 03:21 |
| pleia2 | hehe | 03:21 |
| hangar18 | lmao as Luke said in "The Last Jedi," to R2, "that was a cheap move." | 03:22 |
| hangar18 | that'd be an awesome way to hang out | 03:22 |
| nhaines | And as Johnny Depp said to Orlando Bloom in Pirates of the Carribbean, "Ah! Pirate!" | 03:23 |
| nhaines | Okay, so I think that about wraps things up. Thanks to everyone for attending. :) | 03:23 |
| hangar18 | nhaines: lmao i remember that! | 03:23 |
