 I filled it and if they decide to sponsor it we should be good. I had no idea what hotel so kinda guestimated there
 Sounds good to me :)
 https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/02/kubuntu-24-04-wont-use-kde-plasma-6#comments don't read the comments, save your sanity... I've read them, essentially Joey wanted to encourage FUD and that's what he got
 Instead of reading that article or comments, I would suggest we think more about how to do our messaging Just Right. Those are the "devil's advocate" positions, we should be proactive in our messaging
[11:38] <sgmoore> morning
[11:39] <sgmoore> mmm yes, probably should have clarified plasma6 isn't even released and we have limited time before feature freeze..
 9to5Linux did a great job, Joey did a great job of spreading FUD, as always
 In case my personal opinion isn't clear, I don't like OMG Ubuntu but they're too big to ignore
[11:47] <sgmoore> https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/02/kubuntu-24-04-wont-use-kde-plasma-6#comments I commented.
 Well press is press, and importantly this shows Kubuntu as an active project readying for LTS.
 It's interesting how many people think a flavor is 5 years instead of 3
 On a more detailed read, that's a great article
 https://irc-attachments.kde.org/7a279573/file_72266.jpg
 Still
 Hopefully if you guys have seen the mission road map I wrote, and are happy with it. I'll get to work on the first of 12 articles, and a top line article list so we can keep pumping the press on this stuff
 Banned!!! OMG is the Notorious Aaron Honeycutt rebel, and Kubuntu dissident 🤣
 Joey makes me laugh
 I just wanted to correct information. @tsimonq2 should fix this.
 The fact that it generated a discourse is great, I'm happy with that. Personally, I find it exciting seeing all the noise surfacing around Kubuntu
 Quick update: Yesterday I pulled all the current news content from our website, and I'm currently scripting up a transformer to migrate it all to Hugo, and the new site. I'm gonna need a sysadmin contact at canonical for hosting space, and DNS updates, if anyone can point me in the right direction. 
 I looked at KDE Invent work board, and I'm going to add the RoadMap plan to that, and build out the work board for it later than today.
 I reached out to Kubuntu Users and got a survey underway, just to get a feel for where we are, responses are coming in, and I'll update on that in a week's time once I have given enough time for respondents.
 I pulled the Calamares installer and did some reading about branding, just get some more background on QML and how to build integrate the slide show.
 Contact for Sysadmin would be ace !!
 @RikMills can you share the correct and updated Kubuntu logo? I know the one that appears online has some issues?
 https://irc-attachments.kde.org/a814062b/kubuntu_gears.svg
 I think
 Yes, that is the svg that someone fixed for us a few years ago
 Perfect thanks @RikMills
 Do we think we can get a KDE Nextcloud setup? I wonder about storing things there? Unless we already have that. We also need to get the artwork for 24.04 to get a banner made for the website, social and such.
 collaborate.kde.org
 I seem to recall Ovidiu got us a KDE Next Cloud instance..
 Ah ha, not on my laptop
 Will try it later, see I I still have a login
 Mm 10Mbs is not a lot to work with.
 I still have a Kubuntu Drive which is shared with you guys
 Joey personally hates me and has banned me from his comments section. Would if I could (re @ahoneybun: I just wanted to correct information. @tsimonq2 should fix this.)
 Anyway Rick is right... All Publicity Is Good Publicity
 Great, my KDE Login works for collaborate, that's perfect. I wonder who we need to speak to to request a shared Kubuntu Drive ?
 https://community.kde.org/Sysadmin (re @Rick_Timmis: Great, my KDE Login works for collaborate, that's perfect. I wonder who we need to speak to to request a shared Kubuntu Drive ?)
 Perfect, thanks @RikMills I'll reach out
 Not sure if they will, but no harm in asking
[19:13] <valorie> just heard from Simon on Signal - he's had to duck out for a few hours
[19:14] <sgmoore> ok
[19:16] <ricktimmis> Hi valorie if you have a couple of minuites, could you take a look at the KDE Invent Wiki, I'd love your feedback on the Strategic Plan.
[19:16] <ricktimmis> https://invent.kde.org/teams/distribution-kubuntu/2024-25-strategic-plan/-/wikis/Strategic-Vision/Mission-Statement-2024-to-2025
[19:17] <valorie> thank you, I was just going to ask for the link
[19:19] <valorie> I like the overall gist
[19:20] <valorie> ambitious but hopefully doable
[19:20] <ricktimmis> I'm now set up the Milestones, and then build out the tasks.
[19:20] <ricktimmis> https://invent.kde.org/teams/distribution-kubuntu/2024-25-strategic-plan/-/milestones
[19:21] <ricktimmis> Yes, we're going to need to rally our community and get their help. 
[19:21] <ricktimmis> But, I figure we need to define what they can help with first, then ask em to help us
[19:21] <valorie> I'm happy we are still working on KDE infra
[19:22] <valorie> I think it is as important to stay close with KDE as it is to be close with Ubuntu
 Yes
[19:22] <valorie> historically, all our devels were both
[19:23] <ricktimmis> 100% ^ that
[19:23] <valorie> which has helped us
 I think it's a bit much for a year but it's good goals to a degree
[19:29] <ricktimmis> I like the fact that you guys think it's ambitious. You're absolutely right, it is indeed ambitions. Shoot for the stars, and be cool with landing on the Moon right.
[19:31] <valorie> amen
[19:32] <sgmoore> amen and I see it totally do-able
[19:40] <valorie> agreed scarlet, based on years in this community
[19:41] <valorie> while our competitors have gotten better, that just means more choice - because free software overall is growing
[19:42] <valorie> "linux" is no longer a weird new outlier, we're another choice
[19:43] <valorie> "open source" as a concept is now mainstream
[19:43] <valorie> etc.
[19:49] <sgmoore> yep
[19:51] <sgmoore> alright, major storm blowing in. I need to make sure everything is buttoned down. Be back in a bit.
[22:40] <ricktimmis> Folks, I'm wrapping up for today. I've mostly been adding stuff to KDE Invent today. I've backlogged the KDE Sysadmin as an open task. https://invent.kde.org/teams/distribution-kubuntu/2024-25-strategic-plan/-/issues
 I've been watching from the sidelines today, thank you Scarlett, Rick, and Aaron (plus anyone I may have forgot)! You guys are rocking it!
[22:45] <ricktimmis> Here is the RoadMap, with links to Milestones, and some tasks in the Milestones.
[22:45] <ricktimmis> https://invent.kde.org/teams/distribution-kubuntu/2024-25-strategic-plan/-/wikis/Strategic-Vision/Mission-Statement-2024-to-2025
[22:46] <ricktimmis> I've not got much time tomorrow, and it's band practice in the evening, so I'll be back to do some more on Thursday ttfn
