ndroftheline | hey guys, i'm receiving an error trying to follow the link to this(?) irc channel from https://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-nz/ | 20:42 |
---|---|---|
ndroftheline | "illegal channel name" | 20:42 |
ndroftheline | i came here because i'm keen to find a local community or local events here in auckland to start attending. i've done some googling and not found a lot of linux groups here. wondering if anybody has recommendations for groups they personally know? | 20:44 |
atamira | ooo . its been a while since i attended any | 20:48 |
atamira | last one was a couple of years ago | 20:49 |
ndroftheline | lol womp. like, in general or in auckland? | 20:49 |
atamira | in auckland . was held at mt eden at the time | 20:49 |
ndroftheline | i'm afraid LUGs might have somehow fallen out of vogue | 20:49 |
ndroftheline | just not sure if it's speicfic to auckland or not | 20:49 |
atamira | true. | 20:49 |
atamira | i think the howick lug is still going | 20:49 |
atamira | but not sure on that one | 20:49 |
ndroftheline | it's a bit of a drive but i'd got to howick. i live in silverdale though so, ha | 20:50 |
atamira | meetup has an auckland free and open source meet up | 20:50 |
atamira | if thats to your liking | 20:50 |
ndroftheline | that does sound to my liking | 20:51 |
atamira | oh the howick group is still meeting. 5th dec is the next one | 20:51 |
atamira | its also on meetup.com | 20:51 |
ndroftheline | ah yip i'm on the foss one, but it seems very inactive | 20:52 |
atamira | auckLUG is still going | 20:53 |
atamira | wow. | 20:53 |
ndroftheline | yeah, it's still going but... | 20:53 |
ndroftheline | presumably your exclamation is in regards to the dearth of activity there :( | 20:54 |
atamira | heh. the email list is normally more active | 20:54 |
atamira | but you wont know unless you ask. | 20:55 |
ndroftheline | fair point | 20:56 |
olly | sees the freenode webchat parses the URL parameters badly and sets the channel name to: #ubuntu-nz&prompt=1&uio=OT10cnVlJjEwPXRydWUmMTE9MjM218&nick=locodir-user | 21:16 |
olly | i wonder if the # needs escaping | 21:16 |
olly | *seems | 21:16 |
