Agenda

  • Ops in #ubuntu-au
    • Theres only 2 ops in #ubuntu-au, and they are often/always away. It would be nice to have others. (KarlGoetz, aka Kamping_Kaiser)

  • Digital rights in Australia
    • Following the talk given by Rusty Russell, I felt we should discuss a formal statement/ some sort of co operation about signing the partition, and trying to make some sort of impact ( KarlGoetz)

Actions

  • New Channel Operators for #ubuntu-au
    • The topic of the Ops shortage was discussed. Nominations were taken and voted upon by the attending members. Consequently Kamping_Kaiser, siccness and elkbuntu have all been made channel operators by YukiCuss.

  • Digital Rights Petition
    • Reminder has been given for the Digital Rights Petition. Please get signatures from your School/TAFE/University, Workplace, LUG, or camp out at a shopping center and collect as many signatures as possible. See http://linux.org.au/law for more information.

  • Notice of IRC meetings to the list
    • It has been decided that each fortnight, the person who chairs the meeting will (within 24 hours) email a summary of the meeting to the mailing list. This person will also be responsible for sending a reminder to the list roughly 2 days prior to the next meeting (the Sunday before). Hopefully this will remind people of it's occurrance and may result in more people attending.
