Basically, we can either create a program to give Ubuntu comps to needy kids. Or we can see if schools are interested in a broader deployment of Ubuntu within their school. 18:47< johnc4510> bluecat9: i think we all want to help in this, and we are feeling our way around at first here 18:47< johnc4510> :P 18:47< bluecat9> gotcha 18:47< bluecat9> just trying to suck out as much info before i leave 18:47< bluecat9> ;p 18:47< bluecat9> sorry gents, i have to run 18:47< bluecat9> carry on ;) 18:47< br24> comps for needy kids & families may be more successful 18:47< ianmcorvidae> See ya, blue. 18:47< SloggerKhan> See ya blue. 18:47-!- bluecat9 [n=bluecat9@ip70-171-253-76.tc.ph.cox.net] has quit ["Leaving"] 18:48< johnc4510> SloggerKhan: we might want to make it edubuntu with the school kids? 18:48< SloggerKhan> I tend to agree that needy kids and families is much better goal short term. It only involves 3 things: Getting computers set up, finding families, and getting word out. 18:48 * johnc4510 asks if anything else for SloggerKhan 18:48 * johnc4510 agrees with SloggerKhan 18:49< SloggerKhan> I am not certain whether Edubuntu would be best. I think it might depend. 18:49< johnc4510> SloggerKhan: ok 18:49< br24> if it is for schools or kids exclusive, edubuntu might be better 18:49< br24> if families, *ubuntu then 18:49< johnc4510> will leave that up to you 18:50< johnc4510> agreed 18:50< johnc4510> anything else? 18:50 * johnc4510 says that is all of teams he thinks, and announcements 18:51< johnc4510> agenda for next meeting? 18:51< br24> johnc4510, what about the goals 18:51 * johnc4510 hopes to have approval guide done 18:51 * johnc4510 again apologizes for not having it ready :( 18:52< br24> johnc4510, do you have any info prepared for viewing? 18:52 * johnc4510 says put it on agenda for next time ianmcorvidae please 18:52< johnc4510> yes 18:52< johnc4510> hang on a sec 18:52< ianmcorvidae> Ok. 18:53< johnc4510> br24: here is what i have so far, still may be edited: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArizonaTeam/Teams/Approval%20Outline 18:53< br24> sorry, ianmcorvidae gave me that link 18:53< br24> was just saying that for those who didnt have it 18:54< ianmcorvidae> Yeah, that seems to be the one to give :) 18:54< johnc4510> right 18:54 * johnc4510 says just remember it is not complete and could change 18:54< johnc4510> :) 18:54< SloggerKhan> If anyone wants to discus CompsForKids further, I'd like to screen what I'm figuring we'd be orienting towards. 18:55< johnc4510> SloggerKhan: great how do you want to do it? 18:55-!- Irssi: #ubuntu-arizona: Total of 13 nicks [1 ops, 0 halfops, 0 voices, 12 normal] 18:55< SloggerKhan> First of, I figure with computers, we'd probably be setting minumum specs. 18:55-!- bluecat9 [n=bluecat9@ip70-171-253-76.tc.ph.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu-arizona 18:56< SloggerKhan> I'm guessing 600mhz 256mb RAM CD-ROM drive, at least 1 USB port, and 15 gb hardisk would be about it. 18:56< johnc4510> bluecat9: wb 18:56< SloggerKhan> That is open for discussion 18:57< SloggerKhan> 2nd, I figure we would want to distribute comps w/ only optical mice. 18:57< SloggerKhan> (no ball mice.) 18:57< SloggerKhan> I'd prefer better specs, but I think we should have min specs. 18:58< SloggerKhan> 2nd, we need a way to identify families. 18:58< SloggerKhan> I think the best way is to ask for flyers we give to the school to be sent home with students. 18:58< SloggerKhan> And have a website. 18:58< br24> maybe American Cross might help? 18:58< br24> or some org like them 18:59< SloggerKhan> Lastly, I think we need to come up with a base install. I figure it should include special status kids account(s), filtering/content protection, and extra educational software. 18:59< johnc4510> SloggerKhan: the schools ought to be able to point us toward to right families 18:59< SloggerKhan> Agreed, John 19:00< johnc4510> SloggerKhan: nice ideas 19:00< SloggerKhan> They are also obligated to not give us such info, I am pretty sure. 19:00< johnc4510> SloggerKhan: do you have other people on your team yet? 19:00< SloggerKhan> So we can ask them to give info to people they think are appropriate. 19:01< johnc4510> SloggerKhan: then we might let them decide who they should go to? 19:01< SloggerKhan> Not really. I am not sure what my team is, technically. 19:01 * ianmcorvidae wanders off to eat.
