[21:02] <akgraner> there we go - grrr!
[21:03] <akgraner> 3rd time is the charm right
[21:03] <pleia2> :)
[21:03] <akgraner> we have a packed agenda and I hope everyone had a chance to read the info on the mailing list about about most of the items :-)
[21:04] <akgraner> [TOPIC] - OPEN ITEM - UW PROJECT PR TEAM - Ubuntu Women PR team. Should we have a team responsible for both official project responses to publicized problems within the Ubuntu community relating to women in open source and for publicizing team activities and information.

[21:04] <akgraner> Any thoughts on this?
[21:04] <pleia2> I would really like to see this - we already sort of have one but it's unclear how to get involved in planning (leading to "wow, international women's day competition announced and I had no idea "we" were planning this?")
[21:04] <Pendulum> I agree
[21:05] <akgraner> *nods*
[21:05] <akgraner> I sent this to the mailing list and didn't get much of a response
[21:06] * pleia2 nods
[21:06] <Pendulum> also, I think there's sometimes some confusion with whether people blogging are speaking for the project or for themselves (this ties into the idea of having a UW blog which I would think could be one of the things the PR team is in charge of)
[21:06] <pleia2> Pendulum: good point
[21:06] <etali> Forgive me if this is a silly question, but what would a formal PR team be responsible for that members don't already do?
[21:06] <etali> I thought people in general already tweeted / blogged, etc to spread the word?
[21:07] <hypa7ia> it might be nice to have an actual uw blog
[21:07] <pleia2> the blog would also be great for prettier links to our stuff - linking to a mailing list archive isn't particularly user friendly, people hate plain test (so they end up linking out *our* individual blogs instead anyway)
[21:07] <akgraner> the blog would not be what we see on the uw planet I wouldn't think but a way to get the word out on what we as a team are doing
[21:08] <Pendulum> I know when I've discussed this with a couple people in UW, one thing we also talked about is having a PR team so that if we ever get asked for some sort of formal "what does UW think?" when something comes up in the community that may be gender related
[21:08] <pleia2> Pendulum: I don't think we want to get into the game of "what do *we* think" when it comes to gender stuff
[21:08] <pleia2> "we" think every opinion on the planet, probably ;)
[21:08] <pleia2> I like that our members still speak individually on those things
[21:09] <Pendulum> fair enough :)
[21:09] <pleia2> etali: sometimes projects like international women's days are much more easily handled by a core group of folks really interested
[21:09] <pleia2> so they can all be Cced on requests to sponsors, etc
[21:09] <akgraner> I know on the NC team with our blog - we are using it like pleia2 suggested above
[21:10] <etali> A central blog does sound like a good idea. A list of people willing to speak on gender issues might be nice too?
[21:10] <akgraner> we just have a section on there for that
[21:11] <akgraner> I would think?
[21:11] <pleia2> yeah
[21:11] <pleia2> or link to geekspeakr's section on it
[21:12] <akgraner> any reason why we can't just set up a wordpress one and see how it does?
[21:12] <akgraner> works, goes etc...
[21:12] <akgraner> we can always roll it to a domain later if it's working out well
[21:13] <akgraner> thoughts?
[21:13] <Pendulum> do we need to figure out who will have access to post to it first?
[21:13] <akgraner> so the Blog will act as the PR point then right?
[21:13] <pleia2> akgraner: I'd think so
[21:13] * etali thinks it is a good idea and would like to help if it goes ahead
[21:13] <Pendulum> makes sense to me
[21:13] <althara> I think that is a good idea
[21:13] <pleia2> and we can just submit an RT ticket to get blog.ubuntu-women.org pointed somewhere
[21:14] <pleia2> I can offer hosting with access for whoever wants it, but I'm sure others can too :)
[21:14] <hypa7ia> pleia2: we should probably try to keep things on canonical inf, no?
[21:14] <pleia2> hypa7ia: canonical doesn't support wordpress afaik
[21:15] <akgraner> and it's slow getting stuff from them at times
[21:15] <pleia2> only old drupal, and the sysadmins aren't particulary responsive (getting our wiki updated took a year or so)
[21:15] <akgraner> so wordpress? yes? no?
[21:15] <pleia2> I like wordpress
[21:15] <Pendulum> so do I
[21:16] <rww> I do also (and like this idea in general; sorry, I was distracted :)
[21:16] <akgraner> it's pretty easy for anyone who wants to contribute to use as well
[21:16] <etali> Most people know how to use it, so probably best choice
[21:16] <akgraner> so access? any suggestions there?
[21:17] <pleia2> I think we can give any established members of the team access to posting
[21:17] <etali> Does .com allow different levels? E.g. the leaders have admin rights, other volunteers get rights to post / edit their own posts as required?
[21:17] <hypa7ia> yeah, i think so etali
[21:17] <akgraner> word press allows you to set permissions like that iirc
[21:18] <rww> I'd say make a list of subjects that are on-topic for it (only event announcements vs. other related stuff, etc...), and then let any established team members post.
[21:18] <pleia2> rww: +1
[21:18] <akgraner> rww, +1
[21:18] <akgraner> ok date to get this in place by?
[21:19] <akgraner> 1 month from now?
[21:19] <akgraner> end of April?
[21:19] <pleia2> I think interested folks should discuss technical details offline and come up with a timeline
[21:19] <pleia2> er, out of meeting :)
[21:19] <akgraner> +1
[21:19] <etali> +1
[21:19] <akgraner> pleia2, can you send something to mailing list?
[21:20] <pleia2> akgraner: sure thing
[21:20] <akgraner> [ACTION] - pleia2 to send information on New Wordpress UW Blog establishment
[21:20] <Mootbot-UK> ACTION received: - pleia2 to send information on New Wordpress UW Blog establishment
[21:20] <akgraner> thanks pleia2 :-)
[21:21] <akgraner> ok moving on - I moved Election ahead of -M goals

[21:21] <akgraner> Did everyone get a chance to read the proposed details that was sent to the mailing list?
[21:22] <akgraner> if so any thoughts?
[21:22] <akgraner> or do I need to go over the proposal details?
[21:22] <pleia2> it all sounded good to me
[21:23] <akgraner> so anyone have objections for just forgoing one leader and just voting for 3 co-leaders in the elections?
[21:24] <Pendulum> nope
[21:24] <akgraner> that way we can have a great cross-section of the team - hopefully leaders in different time zones - and with different skill sets and interests
[21:24] * pleia2 nods
[21:25] <althara> I think that's a great idea
[21:25] <akgraner> ok I'll get the wiki updated and get the schedule announced

[21:27] <akgraner> again info on this topic went to mailing list - hopefully everyone had a chance to ready this as well - if not I have pasted the link above
[21:28] <pleia2> looks good to me
[21:28] <akgraner> UDS-M is around the corner and to make sure all those who want to be involved in the goals for the next cycle can be we have a list of suggestions
[21:29] <pleia2> I think we do want to have some solid goals attached to some of these things though
[21:29] <pleia2> the first three are a bit "encourage people to" and so don't really have goals
[21:29] <akgraner> the list is pretty long and while we accomplished all the goals for the -L cycle, I would hesitate to add them all to the Blueprint we can also add more as we finish whats on them
[21:30] <akgraner> so any thoughts on which 3?
[21:30] <akgraner> to start with
[21:30] <pleia2> 4-6 are my favorites
[21:31] <akgraner> I agree the 1st 3 are just a matter of setting things up tracking them and encouraging people
[21:31] <althara> Area 3, 4, 6/7 are my favorites
[21:31] <akgraner> let me post the ideas in here
[21:32] <althara> and I think 5 is important because hte website is a bit stale
[21:32] <pleia2> althara: me too
[21:32] <etali> 5 matches well with the blog stuff discussed earlier too.
[21:32] <pleia2> I kind of wince when I link people to it these days :)
[21:32] <akgraner> the are exactly like the mailing list numbers but for sake of getting them in the meeting I'll post the ones from the agenda and link to the mailing list in the notes
[21:33] <etali> Was the mentoring thing one of the goals? (My net connection is acting up and the link won't open so can't look :( )
[21:33] <pleia2> etali: yep
[21:33] <althara> etali: #4 is the mentoring thing

[21:35] <akgraner> oops I have Mentoring as seperate topic :-)
[21:35] <akgraner> so for UDS - Mentoring Program, Website and ?
[21:35] <akgraner> well blueprint for the -M cycle goals for the project
[21:36] <pleia2> logo?
[21:36] <pleia2> the t-shirt idea is neat and fun, but I think it needs to wait for the logo
[21:36] <althara> agreed
[21:36] <akgraner> agreed
[21:36] <pleia2> and a site redesign with old logo.. :\
[21:36] * maco likes the old logo
[21:36] <althara> also agreed
[21:36] <pleia2> I love the old logo
[21:36] <akgraner> so old logo new color theme maybe
[21:37] <althara> I agree
[21:37] <pleia2> maybe a discussion is in order about this, does it actually need refreshing with the new branding?
[21:37] <akgraner> use the new orange color and the Aubergine for the words maybe
[21:37] <akgraner> I like it the Logo
[21:38] <akgraner> however I <3 purple er Aubergine - so would love to see words in purple :-) but that is just me
[21:38] <althara> just so we are all up to date. ARe the official ubuntu colors changing?
[21:38] <akgraner> and in new font
[21:38] <akk> I'm confused about the new colors -- the page everyone was showing showed about 6 new ubuntu color themes
[21:39] <pleia2> althara: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Brand
[21:39] <akk> some orange, some purple
[21:39] <maco> althara: yes, eggplant and orangy
[21:39] <akgraner> according to what I read on Marks blog the circle of friends is going to be the thing that stays the same
[21:39] <maco> akk: the theme is a mix of them together
[21:39] <maco> akk: mark explained that they use more purple on more corporate stuff and more orange on more community stuff
[21:39] <akgraner> and that orange will represent community and purple will represent Canonical
[21:39] <maco> akk: but always both are there
[21:40] <akgraner> so if you see more purple - the it's corporate
[21:40] <akgraner> is you see more orange it's community
[21:40] <akk> None of the logos on that page seem to have purple -- they're all the baby-aspirin orange.
[21:40] <akk> Or a slightly darker orange.
[21:40] <maco> hahahah baby aspirin orange
[21:41] <pleia2> the brainstorm logo is purple, the splash screen at the bottom is purple
[21:41] <akk> Wow, that splash screen at the bottom looks off-black to me.
[21:42] <pleia2> brainstorm is dark, but the splash screen is definitely purple on my screen
[21:42] <akgraner> [LINK] - sabdfl 's post on the new theme - http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/308
[21:42] <Mootbot-UK> LINK received: - sabdfl 's post on the new theme - http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/308
[21:43] <akk> yep, if I use gimp's color picker and boost Value I can see the hue is purple -- but the screen sure doesn't look it here.
[21:43] <akgraner> I should clarify what I said on "official" publications, banners etc - that is how I understood the colors were going to be used
[21:44] <akgraner> Change the logo or no? - I like it :-) but would like to incorporate new font if nothing else (when the font is ready that is)
[21:44] <althara> I think just changing the font is good
[21:45] <pleia2> me too
[21:45] <althara> With the range of colors that the new theme is we could spend months debating on what to change things to
[21:45] <akgraner> so - mentoring, website, logo - and then we can add stuff as needed to blue print from the list of suggestions on mailing list?
[21:46] <pleia2> +1
[21:46] <althara> +1
[21:46] <akk> +1 on changing the font.
[21:46] <akk> and +1 on the akgraner's suggestion too.
[21:46] <akgraner> and we can have someone do a couple different ideas for the logo that we have using new color theme and see what we like then
[21:47] <akgraner> [ACTION] - akgraner to add website, mentoring and logo to blueprints for -M cycle
[21:47] <Mootbot-UK> ACTION received: - akgraner to add website, mentoring and logo to blueprints for -M cycle
[21:48] <akgraner> I'll leave off the names of who is doing what for now - but just get the blueprint created
[21:48] <akgraner> well get those items added - and get the roadmap for -M ready to go
[21:49] <maco> akk: turn up your screen's brightness ;-)
[21:49] <akgraner> is that ok with everyone?
[21:49] <pleia2> souns good
[21:49] <maco> +1 on the font thing too
[21:50] <akgraner> ok we have about 10 mins left - any objection to moving on to new items? or any thoughts on old items before I move on?
[21:51] <etali> no objections here
[21:51] <akgraner> no? ok new items
[21:51] <akgraner> [TOPIC] - New Items - Team Meeting Day and Times - Discuss results from meeting poll and set - reliable, predictable and reoccurring team meetings that alternate between 2 timezones that best meets the needs of the team.

[21:51] <Mootbot-UK> New Topic: - New Items - Team Meeting Day and Times - Discuss results from meeting poll and set - reliable, predictable and reoccurring team meetings that alternate between 2 timezones that best meets the needs of the team.
[21:51] <akgraner> (oh that space kills me :-)
[21:52] <akgraner> so the idea is to have 2 meetings a month so team members don't have to attend meetings at 2am or so in there time zone all the time
[21:53] <akgraner> while I had the poll up - only 7 people took the time to fill it out :-(
[21:53] <pleia2> yeah, it's frustrating
[21:54] <pleia2> what the CC does is have one in each 12 hour chunk of the day
[21:54] <akgraner> so the days that we evenly voted for were - Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday
[21:54] <etali> On paper it sounds like a great idea. Are there enough people across the two time zones to sustain two different meetings every month?
[21:54] <Pendulum> I'll admit that I didn't fill out the poll and that's partially because with the time change I currently don't know what's up and since we're in the middle of people changing times, I *really* wasn't sure how it would work out longer term
[21:54] <pleia2> so like 11UTC and 21UTC
[21:55] <pleia2> etali: yeah, that's been the problem in the past
[21:55] <akgraner> etali, I dunno to be honest - it's something to try and see if it works out if not we can just go back to how we have it now
[21:55] <Pendulum> pleia2: the CC way makes sense to me
[21:56] <hypa7ia> i didn't bother with the poll because i don't think a poll is fair in this case
[21:56] <hypa7ia> we're mostly in NA
[21:56] <hypa7ia> a poll will always be skewed towards that
[21:56] <etali> My vote goes for trying it. If it works out, knowing the meeting is always on a Wednesday or whatever would be great. Much easier to keep track of than the doodle polls.
[21:56] <akgraner> hypa7ia, hmm - I didn't even think of it that way - good point
[21:56] <pleia2> I probably will show up even if it's at 2AM, so the poll doesn't matter a ton to me either
[21:57] <akk> Doesn't it make some sense to skew it toward the most members? (No offense to the minority ones, and we indeed should have some meetings in other timezones.)
[21:57] <akgraner> so from the poll - it was 2200 UTC and 0200, 0300, and 0400 UTC
[21:58] <akgraner> but again it was only 7 people - and thank you to all those who filled it out btw :-)
[21:58] <akgraner> ok so two mins left - wow time flies :-)
[21:58] <pleia2> maybe see how 2200 and 1200 work?
[21:58] <akgraner> haha that's what I was going to say
[21:59] <rww> If I remember correctly, I didn't end up filling that survey out because I'm available at very different times on different days, and the poll didn't let me specify that.
[21:59] <akgraner> to 2nd and 4th thursdays
[21:59] <akgraner> an 1200 and 2200UTC
[21:59] <akk> rww: I had that problem too, and avoided timeslots that would have been okay on some days.
[22:01] <akgraner> [ACTION] set future UW Meetings for 2nd and 4th Thursdays of each month - 2nd Thurs 1200UTC, 4th Thurs 2200UTC
[22:01] <akgraner> does that sound ok to everyone

 19:04:30 <The_Toxic_Mite> oops, present

 19:04:37 <daubers> How goes said reporting?

 19:04:41 <Daviey> Ok, deadline for April is technically this Sunday

 19:04:58 <Daviey> I've today posted to the LoCo list

 19:05:06 <Daviey> asking people to add activities

 19:05:20 * brobostigon read it.

 19:05:30 <Daviey> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-uk/2010-April/023790.html

 19:05:54 <Daviey> Essentially, it's a call for people to add anything they have achieved in April

 19:06:02 <Daviey> (or the LoCo)

 19:06:24 <Daviey> I'm going to poke a few people that i know have achieved stuff

 19:06:39 <Daviey> if people present could do that also, it would be grand

 19:06:48 <daubers> Excellent :)

 19:06:51 <brobostigon> willdo Daviey

 19:06:52 <brobostigon> :)

 19:07:11 <daubers> [ACTION] People who have achieved something in April, please place it in the report

 19:07:21 <brobostigon> :)

 19:07:26 <daubers> Shall we move on?

 19:07:27 <brobostigon> agreed.

 19:07:41 <daubers> [PROGRESS REPORT] AlanBell to find out what happened at the manchester jam

 19:07:45 <AlanBell> the manchester jam occured and seems to have gone well, MunkyJunky talked about it on the full circle podcast

 19:07:45 <Daviey> ta

 19:07:54 <Daviey> present btw :)

 19:08:05 <MunkyJunky> It did go well!

 19:08:16 <AlanBell> http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/51/detail/

 19:08:36 <daubers> Excellent, well done to those that organised it

 19:09:12 <daubers> Moving on?

 19:09:15 <AlanBell> yup

 19:09:18 <daubers> [PROGRESS REPORT] Daviey and czajkowski to do more publicity on the geeknic

 19:09:41 <daubers> Daviey?

 19:10:49 <daubers> czajkowski?

 19:11:05 <Daviey> no action from here.

 19:11:18 <brobostigon> she was talking about it in #ubuntu-uk not long ago.

 19:11:36 <daubers> Ok, can we someone volunteer to post to the mailing list?

 19:12:34 <daubers> [ACTION] Daubers to either poke czajkowski to or get himself to send a mail to the -uk list this evning about the geeknic in Liverpool

 19:12:42 <daubers> Ok, next

 19:12:52 <daubers> [PROGRESS REPORT] daubers to put support guidelines in a wiki page prior to next meeting

 19:13:01 <daubers> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/Support_Guidelines

 19:13:07 <brobostigon> :)

 19:13:27 <brobostigon> iam happy with it, right now.

 19:13:29 <daubers> I've popped these on the wiki now, and (think) I dropped an email to the list.

 19:13:38 <daubers> I'll go further into this in a second

 19:13:45 <daubers> since thats the end of the last meetings actions

 19:13:59 <daubers> [TOPIC] Daubers - Support Guidelines

 19:14:04 <brobostigon> Do we need to do a review of those proposedguidelines?

 19:14:46 <daubers> As I said these are now on the wiki, an I believe I emailed the mailing list. Do people want time to review them further and me to push them a bit more, or how would people like to proceed?

 19:15:13 <brobostigon> i would like to be able to review them, please.

 19:15:47 <AlanBell> would be good to share them about at UDS

 19:15:53 <daubers> Ok, are there any major failings in the proposed guidelines?

 19:16:13 <brobostigon> daubers: not that i can immediatly remember, no.

 19:16:16 <daubers> AlanBell: Would you be happy to do that? I'm not going

 19:16:29 <daubers> Work, money and stuff are in the way

 19:16:33 <AlanBell> I see no failures, but they can probably be expanded on over time

 19:16:52 <AlanBell> yes I can try and talk to other teams about them at UDS

 19:16:56 <brobostigon> I would be happier with review before proper adoption.

 19:17:18 <daubers> Awesome, if anyone thinks it would help, I'm happy to do a session at oggcamp

 19:17:21 <brobostigon> and good scruteny.

 19:17:54 <Yorvyk> I think they need to bee used to see if they work

 19:18:03 <AlanBell> an oggcamp session would be great

 19:18:42 <daubers> So, if I do an oggcamp session and write up some bits, are we happy to do a trial implimentation as of next week and then a review afterwards?

 19:18:56 <AlanBell> I am

 19:18:57 <daubers> See if I can organise a meeting dedicated to that [TOPIC]

 19:19:20 <daubers> [ACTION] Daubers to write a tal for Oggcamp on the proposed support guidelines

 19:19:44 <daubers> Do we want to vote on a trial implimentation?

 19:19:44 <brobostigon> ok.

 19:19:57 <AlanBell> ok

 19:19:58 <brobostigon> after review,yes.

 19:20:00 <The_Toxic_Mite> ok

 19:20:21 <brobostigon> not before.

 19:20:58 <daubers> brobostigon: Not sure there's a lot to review initially. They're set out fairly plainly in the wiki page. There will be a lot of wiggle room in the trial as well

 19:21:36 <BigRedS_> I'd suggest a trial to find out what needs adding. I've had a skim and there appears to be vagueness rather than anything likely disagreeable

 19:21:37 <brobostigon> daubers: i mean, for any big issues, thats all, or any possible additions or changes.

 19:21:53 <daubers> brobostigon: I think a trial would be best to hilight that (personally)

 19:22:10 <daubers> If it all fails during the trial then obviously it'll get pulled and discussed further

 19:22:22 <brobostigon> daubers: true, but a "not firm trial" rather thandefinate firm trial.

 19:22:35 <daubers> Yes, as I said, wit a lot of wiggle room

 19:22:46 <brobostigon> ok,

 19:22:49 <AlanBell> more of a beta than a release candidate

 19:22:54 <brobostigon> i am happy.

    19:05:30 <Daviey> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-uk/2010-April/023790.html

    19:05:54 <Daviey> Essentially, it's a call for people to add anything they have achieved in April

    19:06:02 <Daviey> (or the LoCo)

    19:06:24 <Daviey> I'm going to poke a few people that i know have achieved stuff

    19:06:39 <Daviey> if people present could do that also, it would be grand

    19:06:48 <daubers> Excellent Smile :)

    19:11:36 <daubers> Ok, can we someone volunteer to post to the mailing list?

    19:12:34 <daubers> [ACTION] Daubers to either poke czajkowski to or get himself to send a mail to the -uk list this evning about the geeknic in Liverpool

    19:12:42 <daubers> Ok, next

    19:13:01 <daubers> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/Support_Guidelines

    19:13:07 <brobostigon> Smile :)

    19:13:27 <brobostigon> iam happy with it, right now.

    19:13:29 <daubers> I've popped these on the wiki now, and (think) I dropped an email to the list.

    19:13:38 <daubers> I'll go further into this in a second

    19:13:45 <daubers> since thats the end of the last meetings actions

    19:13:59 <daubers> [TOPIC] Daubers - Support Guidelines

    19:14:04 <brobostigon> Do we need to do a review of those proposedguidelines?

    19:14:46 <daubers> As I said these are now on the wiki, an I believe I emailed the mailing list. Do people want time to review them further and me to push them a bit more, or how would people like to proceed?

    19:15:13 <brobostigon> i would like to be able to review them, please.

    19:15:47 <AlanBell> would be good to share them about at UDS

    19:15:53 <daubers> Ok, are there any major failings in the proposed guidelines?

    19:16:13 <brobostigon> daubers: not that i can immediatly remember, no.

    19:16:16 <daubers> AlanBell: Would you be happy to do that? I'm not going

    19:16:29 <daubers> Work, money and stuff are in the way

    19:16:33 <AlanBell> I see no failures, but they can probably be expanded on over time

    19:16:52 <AlanBell> yes I can try and talk to other teams about them at UDS

    19:16:56 <brobostigon> I would be happier with review before proper adoption.

    19:17:18 <daubers> Awesome, if anyone thinks it would help, I'm happy to do a session at oggcamp

    19:17:21 <brobostigon> and good scruteny.

    19:17:54 <Yorvyk> I think they need to bee used to see if they work

    19:18:03 <AlanBell> an oggcamp session would be great

    19:18:42 <daubers> So, if I do an oggcamp session and write up some bits, are we happy to do a trial implimentation as of next week and then a review afterwards?

    19:18:56 <AlanBell> I am

    19:18:57 <daubers> See if I can organise a meeting dedicated to that [TOPIC]

    19:19:20 <daubers> [ACTION] Daubers to write a tal for Oggcamp on the proposed support guidelines

    19:19:44 <daubers> Do we want to vote on a trial implimentation?

    19:19:44 <brobostigon> ok.

    19:19:57 <AlanBell> ok

    19:19:58 <brobostigon> after review,yes.

    19:20:00 <The_Toxic_Mite> ok

    19:20:21 <brobostigon> not before.

    19:20:58 <daubers> brobostigon: Not sure there's a lot to review initially. They're set out fairly plainly in the wiki page. There will be a lot of wiggle room in the trial as well

    19:21:36 <BigRedS_> I'd suggest a trial to find out what needs adding. I've had a skim and there appears to be vagueness rather than anything likely disagreeable

    19:21:37 <brobostigon> daubers: i mean, for any big issues, thats all, or any possible additions or changes.

    19:21:53 <daubers> brobostigon: I think a trial would be best to hilight that (personally)

    19:22:10 <daubers> If it all fails during the trial then obviously it'll get pulled and discussed further

    19:22:22 <brobostigon> daubers: true, but a "not firm trial" rather thandefinate firm trial.

    19:22:35 <daubers> Yes, as I said, wit a lot of wiggle room

    19:22:46 <brobostigon> ok,

    19:22:49 <AlanBell> more of a beta than a release candidate

    19:22:54 <brobostigon> i am happy.

    19:22:58 <daubers> [VOTE] Should we have a beta trial of the support guidelines, followed by a meeting to review them?
