<xHans> soitanly
<xHans> SCaLE was last weekend, as usual it was a fun conference
<xHans> lots of great content and plenty of worthwhile hallway track
<xHans> they added a kids mini-conference this year and expanded the game night
<xHans> overall, definitely worth the 4 days of our lives that we spend participating in it
<xHans> videos of talks will be going up sometime in the near future, last year's videos are still up and lots of good stuff there
<xHans> ABLEconf online meeting this Wednesday at 19:00
<xHans> thanks again to AZLoCo for letting us use the LoCo's BBB instance
<xHans> less than two month's until ABLEconf on Saturday, March 24th
<xHans> we'd love more help, so please join the mailing list and meetings if you'd like to participate in putting on a successful Free Software conference in the valley
<xHans> ABLEconf's Birds of a Feather at SCaLE was well-attended and showed we have lots of volunteers, but there's still a lot to do before the conference
<xHans> http://azlocobbb.banditti.com for the meeting

<xHans> PLUG east side a week from Thursday at 19:00
<xHans> topics are set, but I'm unsure what they are
<xHans> http://plug.phoenix.az.us/component/jevents/icalrepeat.detail/2012/02/09/19/-/plug-east-meeting.html?Itemid=1
<xHans> Dazed_75: do you remember the topics?
<xHans> I believe they're the presentations from Dennis and Chris
<Dazed_75> Sorry, I do not
<xHans> and Brian will have another graphics program presentation for us
<xHans> he's already let me know I should have the gimp-resynthesizer package installed for the meeting :)
<xHans> that's it from me for this week
<toddc> Thanks xHans for keeping us up to date on Plug events and ABLEconf.org
<Dazed_75> Back to SCALE, they had more than 100 exhibitors, more than 130 sessions, nearly 2,000 attendees.
<Dazed_75> Canonical sponsored an all day event called Ubucon on the Friday SCALE 10x started.
<Dazed_75> Lots of talks and discussions.  Two really good Unity talks:
<Dazed_75> 1) Unity for power users, and 2) Customizing Unity.
<Dazed_75> Anyway, it was a task choosing talks sometimes
<Dazed_75> I loved the Linux and devices
<Dazed_75> They had a radio controlled shark drivwn by an Arduino
<xHans> Dazed_75: yeah, I wanted to see 5 of the talks that ran the same time as my talk!
<Dazed_75> it was like 4 ft long and floated in the air
<Dazed_75> Exactly
<toddc> I heard that Dewayne's wife came home with a ton of disto cd's!!!
<xHans> oooh and now I need to add that talk to my list of videos to watch :)
<Dazed_75> The speaker did a great job describing how she got into Arduinos and sensors, etc
<Dazed_75> Thats all for me
<toddc> I hear that rasberry pi might be out near the weekend! :)
<Dazed_75> We saw one in the XBMC both
<xHans> should be out any day now
<toddc> http://www.raspberrypi.org/
<xHans> yeah, the xbmc guys were pretty happy with it
<toddc> should sell out in two hours is the estimate
<xHans> :(
<xHans> not sure how quick I can react during the day
<toddc> I will be checking on it and will email you if you like
<toddc> I only check twice per day as time permits
<toddc> that is all I have any questions or comments or other news or ideas?
