TIRED. :( [21:00]And I can't sleep. [21:00]Welcome to AZLOCO IRC Meeting Please sign in with a +1 [21:01]again, +1 [21:01]+1 [21:01]Our launch pad site https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-arizona [21:01]Our web site is azloco.com [21:01]azlocobbb.banditti.com Big Blue Button sever-- Audio Video Chat with others but still in testing [21:01]++ [21:01]+1 [21:01]+1 [21:01]+1 [21:01]Feel free to make comments and add input to our meeting at anytime. [21:01]Anyone here new tonight please introduce yourself and tell us a little about yourself? [21:01]FernHans: hey bud [21:01]long time [21:02]Welcome back Johnc4510 and can you update us with the Team news? [21:02]johnc4510: well, you went hermit on us and all that :) [21:02]nods [21:02]toddc: thx [21:02]* syn-acktrips FernHans since he is his body guard [21:02]ok, if you've been following the mailing list [21:02]you know that our team status is in question [21:03]It's not [21:03]we are NOT chartered [21:03]i've been working with the loco team council about this [21:03]and we are an approved team for 90 more days [21:03]good [21:03]I was just about to ask you that. [21:03]within that 90 days we need to re-apply for approval [21:04]and what exactly is their peoblem? [21:04]being listed as an approved team up for re-approval is important [21:04]johnc4510, Did we ever figure out why it lapsed in the first place and who it was who dropped the ball? [21:04]syn-ack: from my research [21:04]Not that it's all that important, just curious, is all [21:05]it seems like maybe the council and our team was at fault [21:05]however i think it was mostly the councils fault [21:05]since they filed a bug report on the notification proceedure [21:05]ok. then that's ok because I was under the impression that it was all good from the people I spoke to [21:06]any how being on the approved list when going up for re-approval is important [21:06]Right [21:06]they tend to be somewhat easier on approved teams [21:06]that's not to say they won't take a close look [21:07]so [21:07]can I assume we need to watch it better and set a chain of contact s to help stay on top of things like this? [21:07]well, thats just it [21:07]toddc: correct, and that's probably the first thing we should talk about [21:07]We WERE working said list. heh [21:07]didnt we use to have a notification setup on the calender when it was time to reup? [21:08]yes, iirc we did [21:08]kennymc0: i think so...now i don't know [21:08]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamList [21:08]on that page [21:08]is out team in the approved section [21:08]and our team contacts [21:08]i'd like to stay on the list still [21:09]Absolutely [21:09]but should we change scott to todd? [21:09]i would think that would be a good thing to do [21:09]yup [21:09]I don't know. Has Scott been around and would he approve of the change? [21:09]willing but it should be voted on [21:09]* FernHansagrees, but has no horse in the race :) [21:10]toddc: agreed.... [21:10]+1 [21:10]i think we should [21:10]+1 [21:10]he has been willing but very busy latley [21:10]I'm going to abstain. [21:10]put out an email to the mailing list proposing next weeks meeting as a vote or update type of meeting for contacts [21:10]???? [21:11]whoever wants to do it can do it, it's not like anyone is getting paid [21:11]I did talk to him and he is ok either way [21:11]Ok [21:11]syn-ack: i'm not trying to oust anyone.....just trying to get a lay of the land [21:11]so to speak [21:11]Understood [21:11]they thing is this [21:11]the shipit cd's we can get [21:11]if he's fine with it, I'm willing to vote for Todd. [21:12]I just didn't want him thinking that I was stabbing him in the back for anything. [21:12]the person ordering the cd's must be one of the people on the list at that web page [21:12]syn-ack: right [21:12]scott seemed into the idea, he said it to me a lil while back [21:13]np that is the main point and [21:13]im personally +1 for it if noone else was going to step up [21:13]soldats: k [21:13]+1 as well [21:13]and the person ordering the cd's must be the one receiving them [21:13]scott might be just too busy right now [21:13]no order by one person and ship to another [21:13]soldats: understood[ 21:14]i personally don't need the cd's at my place right now because of my situation [21:14]I did ask scott since he had done it before that is what led up to all this [21:14]and?? [21:15]everything should be fine the way its going [21:15]I do attand almost all the installfests so they end up here anyway [21:15]our biggest problem with the cd's is we have two areas of main distribution [21:15]true [21:16]well no one cares about tucson anyways ;P [21:16]lol [21:16]and whoever has them has to coordinate with the other to make sure they have the cd's they need [21:16]heh [21:16]and get them to them [21:16]kennymc0, agreed. :D [21:16]hey we just did Tucson [21:16]yea right in the butt [21:16]i'm sorry [21:16]hah [21:16]right....but you'll be doing more i imagine and [21:17]hopefully more in tucson [21:17]and was down there last week end [21:17]are we still supporting the phoenix area that was doing the installfests at the college?[21:17]I was just in Tucson today. :D [21:17]johnc4510, Yes, along with ABLE, as far as I know [21:17]syn-ack: good [21:18]Hans would be more able, pardon the pun to confirm that. [21:18]uat, host two events plus we just added ASUlugs [21:18]that will be a good thing to help with re-uping approved status [21:18]ok....so for now....lets do this for the contact and cd's [21:18]+1 [21:18]+1 [21:19]we'll put out an email to the list asking for attendance at next wks meeting to decide on how to proceed on the contact [21:19]+1 [21:19]+1 [21:19]then once that's set, we can order our cd's [21:19]agreed? [21:19]+1 ok [21:19]johnc4510: sounds good, hopefully we can a lot of em in here [21:19]I'm not going to be able to attend next weeks meeting. [21:19]nods [21:19]maybe the week after so theres more time for everyone to attend [21:20]i should be able to make it as long as i dont fall asleep too early [21:20]syn-ack: after the email goes out you can email your thoughts to the list if you want [21:20]we'll take them into consideration [21:20]syn-ack: KK ? [21:20]soldats, I work out on the road for up to a month at a time so I'll hit you all up by email ASAP [21:20]ok, next on my list [21:20]johnc4510, Works for me. [21:20]is the re-approval application [21:21]syn-ack: cool [21:21]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingApproved [21:21]now...the first thing that needs to be checked is our wiki page, web page, etc [21:22]they need to be brought up to date [21:22]cleaned up [21:22]etc [21:22]such as [21:22]the tucson installfest....is it listed on the wiki page? [21:22]I have done some work on them but I do have a call for help from the team to help with this [21:22]later in this meeting [21:22]toddc: good [21:23]im willing to help as well if i have some extra time, just gotta learn some skills again lol[21:23]i'll be glad to lend my thoughts on how to organize things [21:23]wiki is easy [21:23]lol [21:23]i havenbt messed with anything is a year probably [21:23]is=in [21:23]i do believe that drupal needs some updates on the website [21:24]I just recently got access to edit and just started learning to edit but really need some help as it can be a lot of work [21:24]but since i haven't been keeping up, it'll be up to you folks to remember and update things [21:24]:) [21:24]kennymc0, Many. [21:24]we are working on a date to update the severs [21:24]it uses css right [21:24]isnt drupal at least about to be updated remotley? [21:24]with shane we called him last week [21:25]i'm also will to help with the most important thing....the re-approval application [21:25]good toddc hes always been a huge help [21:25]current versions can be but out is not [21:25]i know pretty much what the council wants on those and have done it before [21:25]with our team and others....also with many individuals [21:25]do we have another cousil meeting again? [21:25]counsil* [21:25]soldats: yep [21:26]ok [21:26]+1 [21:26]but it shouldn't be as involved as before [21:26]yea, seems fair enough [21:26]welcome ricksna [21:26]10-4 [21:26]once we get the wiki pages updated....and the application done....we'll submit it for the next council meeting [21:27]that's when it's important for team members to attend and show their support for the team[21:28]and when is the next council meeting scheduled ? [21:28]I do believe that eventhough we are/still an approved Ubuntu Loco team we should still consider that we as a group should still advocate Linux as a whole [21:28]rav-_: i'd have to check, but we have 90 days to day this....but [21:28]soldats: agreed....and we've always tried to [21:28]imo [21:29]i know :) just throwing it out there [21:29]it would be helpfull to have someone that has done this to lead the charge and task list [21:29]i don't really care what dist you use....although i prefer ubuntu [21:29]toddc: lol [21:29]ok [21:30]i can lead, but i'll need you folks to do the grunt work if that's ok [21:30]what does everyone think of that?

[21:33]if someone has to to help with the wiki we start on that this week [21:33]for some of you folks....cd's are very, very important [21:33]it makes it soooooo much easier to run an installfest [21:33]and [21:33]PR wise at installfest they are very important [21:34]it makes the team look like they belong to a professional org.
