[01:50] <pleia2> happy birthday!
[01:59] <nhaines> pleia2: thank you!  :)
[02:00] <nhaines> Okay, looks like it's that time again!
[02:00] <nhaines> #startmeeting
[02:00] <nhaines> Welcome to the Ubuntu California meeting for April 21st!
[02:00] <nhaines> Tonight's agenda is available here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Meetings/19April21
[02:01] <nhaines> #topic Announcements
[02:01] <nhaines> Let's mix things up a bit and start with the announcements.  :)
[02:01] <nhaines> Ubuntu 19.10 is out!  Yay!
[02:01] <b-yeezi> 19.04?
[02:02] <nhaines> Since I set up a new writing computer about two months ago, I've been running 10.10 with the minimal install and a few snaps.  It's been really solid.
[02:02] <nhaines> b-yeezi: yup!  Not sure where .10 came from.
[02:02] <nhaines> Ubuntu 19.04 is out.  And it is quite nice.  Linux 5.0 kernel, better GNOME Shell improvements.  Latest LibreOffice.
[02:04] <b-yeezi> python3.7 is good (at least for me(
[02:04] <nhaines> The next release cycle, "eaon," will begin to set the groundwork for the LTS release after that.  So to have 19.04 be so solid is a pretty start!
[02:05] <nhaines> #topic Upcoming events
[02:05] <nhaines> Are there any events happening in the near future we should know about?
[02:05] <nhaines> This is a great time to thinking about release parties, which can be as simple as meeting up at a local restaurant for dinner.
[02:07] <b-yeezi> I am a member of the San Diego Python user group. I'm going to suggest having an install party
[02:07] <b-yeezi> Which I would lead, but if anyone else is in SD area, I'd be happy to share the load
[02:08] <nhaines> It can be a good excuse for a get together!  Ubuntu 19.04 ships with Python 3.7.3.
[02:08] <nhaines> If you do decide to have a release party, be sure to list it at https://gettogether.community/ and announce it on the mailing list.  If you have any questions or need any help, please be sure to let us know!
[02:09] <b-yeezi> Is a release party separate from an install party?
[02:10] <nhaines> A release party is when people get together to say "yay, this thing exists!"  An install party is when people get together specifically to try and get a thing running on hardware.
[02:10] <nhaines> They don't have to be separate, but release parties are much easier to organize.  :)
[02:10] <b-yeezi> OK
[02:10] <nhaines> #topic Agenda
[02:11] <nhaines> The agenda for this meeting is empty.
[02:11] <nhaines> #topic Other business

[02:14] <nhaines> Okay, we'll keep this meeting short due to the holiday.
