[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:05:02] <Flakeparadigm>    oh no... not yahoo.
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:05:04] <Flakeparadigm>    WHY!
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:05:10] <scott_ev> if anyone wants to make last minute plans to go to SCaLE let me know
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:05:18] <scott_ev> you can ride with hutchnate and I
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:05:28] <scott_ev> we're leaving thursday
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:05:44] <scott_ev> There will be a 10.04 Lucid Lynx release party at Boulders on Broadway in Tempe (http://www.bouldersonbroadway.net/) on the 24th of April. Boulders on Broadway has a room upstairs that we will have all to ourselves.
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:05:55] <syn-ack>  ugh
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:06:01] <scott_ev> ?
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:06:09] <syn-ack>  I wish I could go to SCaLE. :(
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:06:13] <scott_ev> me too
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:06:18] <scott_ev> We'll have wifi access too.  It's going to be a good chance to eat some good grub, have a few drinks or brewski's and meet some of the other UbuGeeks that you have only met online. You're not going to want to miss this.
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:06:29] <scott_ev> I'll get a shirt of ya
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:06:39] <syn-ack>  werd, yo
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:06:41] <syn-ack>  thanks
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:06:43] <scott_ev> Someone can pick out new features in 10.04 and present them or concentrate on one for example.  Anything to do with Ubuntu will be OK.  Things like how to navigate Launchpad and report bugs...
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:06:47] <scott_ev> np
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:06:57] <scott_ev> Actually, if you have a favorite piece of software that you use you can present that even if it's not in Ubuntu's repos.  Please be thinking about this.  It will only make the Release Party more of a success.
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:07:04] <xHans>    UbuSomething Friday at SCaLE
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:07:16] <scott_ev> Flakeparadigm: you still gonna do a video

[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:08:43] <scott_ev> Flakeparadigm: we'll work out a plan
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:08:48] <Flakeparadigm>    If anyone has anything they want to be presented, I would gladly make a video or something though.
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:08:50] <syn-ack>  Sorry, have to go. Emergency

[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:15:19] <scott_ev> video of course
[Sunday 14 February 2010] [21:15:38] <xHans>    they might put up video afterwards and will almost definitely put up audio
