    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:33:40] <xHans>     PLUG-devel is Thursday. http://PLUG.phoenix.az.us/node/506
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:33:48] <xHans>     I don't know what the topic will be.
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:34:15] <xHans>     As johnc4510-laptop already mentioned, the Free Software conference is now named ABLE Conf. It's Saturday, 2008Sep20 at UAT. We'll be looking for more volunteers starting sometime this week.
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:34:26] <xHans>     We need to fill the online OpenOffice.org class through MCC. Any suggestions on
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:34:26] <xHans>     how to promote it? Any contacts for marketing the class?
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:34:44] <johnc4510-laptop>  gutsy geeks
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:35:00] <xHans>     johnc4510-laptop: yup, still waiting to hear back from Michael
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:35:06] <johnc4510-laptop>  i can blog it if that will help
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:35:15] <xHans>     johnc4510-laptop: that would be great

    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:36:35] <xHans>     excellent

    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:36:48] Quit        Vincent_P has left this server (Remote closed the connection).
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:37:44] <xHans>     it's a great opportunity to get an OOo class in, so we need to fill it. failing to fill it will likely mean it'll be years before we can try it again
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:37:53] <johnc4510-laptop>  kk
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:38:09] <xHans>     maybe ask on the TFUG list if anyone knows of companies using OOo internally
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:38:15]      * xHans will do that on PLUG.
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:38:16] <johnc4510-laptop>  not sure what other ways i can advertise it
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:38:23] Quit        soldats has left this server (Connection timed out).

    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:45:29] <azteech1>  Hee Hee, talk up open source all I can to them, but shall keep plugging away at them ...... no pun intended ....
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:45:43] <johnc4510-laptop>  :)
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:45:46] <kennymc0>  he works for a lab that is part of that whole banner health thing so that would have probably been a big deal
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:45:51] <xHans>     bad puns are OK, keeps tyche's attention :)
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:45:57] <kennymc0>  too bad they didnt agree with him
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:46:04] <johnc4510-laptop>  yeah
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:46:40] <xHans>     banner health was looking for someone with GNU/Linux experience several years ago
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:47:22] <johnc4510-laptop>  xHans: are we going to record and podcast any of the talks at the conference
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:47:43] <johnc4510-laptop>  that's a big undertaking
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:47:48] <johnc4510-laptop>  if we are
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:47:51] <xHans>     johnc4510-laptop: that would be awesome, but I'm not counting on it
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:47:56] <johnc4510-laptop>  right
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:48:05] <xHans>     yeah, tons of work, which is why I won't count on it
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:48:11]      * johnc4510-laptop nods
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:48:18] <johnc4510-laptop>  was just thinking out loud
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:48:26]      * xHans will likely record some of them in super-slowmotion on his new camera, though :)
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:48:33] <johnc4510-laptop>  lol
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:48:51] <xHans>     at high slow speed oncoming traffic on the freeway isn't moving
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:49:00] <johnc4510-laptop>  :)
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:49:21] <johnc4510-laptop>  ok, any other items to discuss? xHans or anybody
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:49:22] <kennymc0>  it would be cool to try to record the talks at the conference
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:49:55] <johnc4510-laptop>  kennymc0: it would, but with several talks going at once, i'm not sure how we could pull that off
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:50:13] <johnc4510-laptop>  maybe we could pick a few to highlight
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:50:15] <azteech1>  well, someone get a cam set up, record and post them at later date ....
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:50:17] <xHans>     johnc4510-laptop: I'm fresh out
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:50:35] <johnc4510-laptop>  xHans: ok, thx a bunch
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:50:37] <johnc4510-laptop>  :)
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:50:53] <xHans>     I figure much of the conference will be ad hoc
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:50:59] <johnc4510-laptop>  yep
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:51:05] <xHans>     that's fine the first time we do it
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:51:18] <johnc4510-laptop>  i plan on hoc'ing up big ones if i speak
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:51:20] <johnc4510-laptop>  :)
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:51:25] <johnc4510-laptop>  at least before hand
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:51:28] <johnc4510-laptop>  hee hee
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:51:30] <xHans>     but I want to make sure the outward facing ( non-geek ) stuff is well organized
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:51:39] <johnc4510-laptop>  agreed
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:51:40] <azteech1>  ewwwwwwww .... TMI

    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:52:05] <xHans>     BTW, there's a nice pub not too far from UAT for the post-conf party...
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:52:06] <johnc4510-laptop>  i think the tech talks and people will fall in line easier
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:52:17] <johnc4510-laptop>  Thugal: i believe so
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:52:20] <xHans>     Thugal: yeah, we need to make sure we have projectors for each room *and* spares
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:52:34] <kennymc0>  where is UAT again?
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:52:40]      * johnc4510-laptop plays air guitar to the max

    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:53:13] <xHans>     it's a good location for those coming up from the south
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:53:24] <azteech1>  yeah, agreed ....
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:53:33] <azteech1>  at least I know where Baseline is ... hehe ...
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:53:34]      * johnc4510-laptop nods
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:53:51] <xHans>     azteech1: at the bottom of the key where the basket is
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:53:59] <Wolf_45>   wait, wait.  wouldn't people fall in line a lot easier if you pub first, *then* conf?
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:54:21] <johnc4510-laptop>  lol, they'd never leave the pub
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:54:25] <johnc4510-laptop>  hee hee
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:54:30]      * xHans == johnc4510-laptop 
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:54:45] <xHans>     besides, we'll make the last task be "cd /pub"
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:54:58] <johnc4510-laptop>  ah nice
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:55:02] <azteech1>  and we don't want any public jaywalkers .... stopped for public intox ....
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:55:11] <azteech1>  not a way to make headlines ...
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:55:32] <johnc4510-laptop>  no, especially since i have to drive back to tucson
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:55:38] <Wolf_45>   well, yeah.  they probably couldn't walk a straight line, let alone fall "in line".  heehee
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:55:38] <johnc4510-laptop>  unless i stay overnight
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:55:47] <azteech1>  yep, agreed ...
    [Sun Aug 3 2008] [21:56:04] <Thugal>    beer = new beer(); beer.drink("glug glug");
