  2. Agenda items then should be discussed "informally" on #ubuntufourms-beginners. 90 % of the discussion should have taken place before the meeting.
  3. Meetings are primarily for decision making/team votes. Read the agenda and discuss your thoughts before the meeting. 10 % (or less) of the discussion should happen during the meeting.

   7 [00:10] <nhandler> Ok, time for the Ubuntu Beginners Team meeting
   8 
   9 [00:10] <nhandler> [TOPIC] Add ~ubuntu-beginners-council as administrator for all Ubuntu Beginners Team Launchpad teams
  10 
  11 [00:10] <MootBot> New Topic:  Add ~ubuntu-beginners-council as administrator for all Ubuntu Beginners Team Launchpad teams
  12 
  13 [00:11] <nhandler> Discussion has already taken place on the mailing list about this topic, and it appears that a good portion of the team has no objections to this
  14 
  15 [00:11] <bodhizazen> :)
  16 
  17 [00:11] <jamesrfla> Welcome bodhizazen
  18 
  19 [00:11] <nhandler> Hey bodhizazen, feel free to take over, I'll just send the MootBot commands :)
  20 
  21 [00:12] <bodhizazen> do we have an agenda ?
  22 
  23 [00:12] <Bodsda> o/ I have no objections
  24 
  25 [00:12] <nhandler> Agenda: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/Meetings

  33 [00:12] <MootBot> LINK received:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/Meetings
  34 
  35 [00:13] <bodhizazen> got it :)
  36 
  37 [00:13] <bodhizazen> I think it is a good idea nhandler
  38 
  39 [00:13] <nhandler> To summarize the agenda item, by having the council as an admin, they would be able to add/remove members as well as modify various details about the team. They would not take over running the teams, this would be left to the Focus Group Leaders
  40 
  41 [00:14] <Rocket2DMn> Does this apply to the umbrella team as well?
  42 
  43 [00:14] <bodhizazen> I also feel we should consolidate LP wiki pages and mailing lists where at all possible
  44 
  45 [00:15] <nhandler> bodhizazen: All mailing lists aside from the main team one and the council one should have been disabled
  46 
  47 [00:15] <nhandler> Rocket2DMn: This would apply to all teams except ~ubuntu-beginners-council
  48 
  49 [00:15] <bodhizazen> IMO it is important to be able to administrate these LP teams if an administrator goes AWOL (which has not happened recently, but is a problem when it occurs).
  50 
  51 [00:15] <Rocket2DMn> do we know if the other mailing lists have been disabled?
  52 
  53 [00:15] <Bodsda> the original ufbt mailing list no longer works
  54 
  55 [00:16] <Rocket2DMn> thats b/c the team name changed
  56 
  57 [00:16] <nhandler> Rocket2DMn: Yes. Unless they have been manually recreated, they were all deleted when the teams were renamed
  58 
  59 [00:16] <Rocket2DMn> ok, thanks nhandler
  60 
  61 [00:16] <bodhizazen> sweet
  62 
  63 [00:16] <nhandler> Think we can vote on this issue?
  64 
  65 [00:16] <bodhizazen> I do not feel our mailing list is so active that we really need more then one list at this tiem
  66 
  67 [00:16] <bodhizazen> +1vote :)
  68 
  69 [00:17] <Rocket2DMn> agreed bodhizazen , we discussed that a few months ago

 165 [00:20]  * cprofitt apologizes for being late
 166 
 167 [00:20] <nhandler> [TOPIC]        Add a logo to the beginners team social group
 168 
 169 [00:20] <MootBot> New Topic:      Add a logo to the beginners team social group
 170 
 171 [00:20] <Vantrax> we have a social group?
 172 
 173 [00:20] <Ash_R> On ubuntu forums the social group Beginner Team Members  [ http://ubuntuforums.org/group.php?groupid=79 ] lacks a logo.  It has the default question mark.   Should it not be changed to something else,  such as the logo used on launchpad ( https://launchpadlibrarian.net/15997130/branding.png ) ?   Another idea,  could be to do a similar logo to that of the unanswered posts team ( http://ubuntuforums.org/image.php?groupid=52&dateline=1229
 174 
 175 [00:20] <Ash_R> 849008 ) .  If any action is to be taken I think only bodhi can change the logo as he created the social group.
 176 
 177 [00:21] <Ash_R> any thoughts?
 178 
 179 [00:21] <bodhizazen> I am "OK" with that, but to be honest was consiering disbanding the social group as we all hang on IRC
 180 
 181 [00:21] <MontelEdwards> bodhizazen: all hang?
 182 
 183 [00:21] <MontelEdwards> what do you mean?
 184 
 185 [00:21] <bodhizazen> LOL
 186 
 187 [00:22] <Bodsda> if we keep the social group, which i dont think brings anything to the team, then we should get a logo, but I have no issues with disbanding it
 188 
 189 [00:22] <bodhizazen> hang-out, ie are active on IRC
 190 
 191 [00:22] <nhandler> Are there any reasons to have the social group?
 192 
 193 [00:22] <Bodsda> MontelEdwards: we are an IRC orientated team
 194 
 195 [00:22] <cprofitt> bodhizazen, I would not disband
 196 
 197 [00:22] <Bodsda> who work heavily on the forums
 198 
 199 [00:22] <nhandler> cprofitt: Why not?
 200 
 201 [00:22] <cprofitt> it still serves as an ad that we exist
 202 
 203 [00:22] <bodhizazen> When we started the team, social groups were the rage
 204 
 205 [00:22] <nhandler> Don't we have a moderated user group on the forums already?
 206 
 207 [00:23] <Ash_R> nhandler,  wasn't it a place to introduce ourselves not only to the team but also to the forum based community
 208 
 209 [00:23] <bodhizazen> now we have irc and mailing lists and what noe
 210 
 211 [00:23] <bodhizazen> *not*
 212 
 213 [00:23] <MontelEdwards> woah woah woah, do you mean take away the team IRC?
 214 
 215 [00:23] <Ash_R> some may bot be on irc
 216 
 217 [00:23] <Bodsda> MontelEdwards: no
 218 
 219 [00:23] <Ash_R> *not
 220 
 221 [00:23] <cprofitt> I do not see a reason to have more than one social group, but keeping one would still serve a purpose
 222 
 223 [00:23] <cprofitt> and does no harm
 224 
 225 [00:23] <MontelEdwards> Bodsda: then what?
 226 
 227 [00:23] <bodhizazen> Well, the problem was ...
 228 
 229 [00:23] <nhandler> Ash_R: If they have any intention of joining the team, they will need to get on IRC
 230 
 231 [00:23] <bodhizazen> we got a ton of join requests from non-members
 232 
 233 [00:24] <bodhizazen> so ...
 234 
 235 [00:24] <Bodsda> MontelEdwards: the forums have social groups, just a little team page thingy.. we have one but hardly use it
 236 
 237 [00:24] <bodhizazen> we made 2 social groups
 238 
 239 [00:24] <bodhizazen> one moderated, members only
 240 
 241 [00:24] <bodhizazen> the other unmoderated
 242 
 243 [00:24] <bodhizazen> over time it seems the social groups have been used less and less
 244 
 245 [00:25] <bodhizazen> if we keep it, I am OK with adding an icon
 246 
 247 [00:25] <MontelEdwards> Oh forget that then
 248 
 249 [00:25] <cprofitt> if it was causing some damage I could see getting rid of it...
 250 
 251 [00:25] <cprofitt> but it really does no harm...
 252 
 253 [00:25] <Bodsda> it does no harm keeping it
 254 
 255 [00:25] <nhandler> Should we vote on this?
 256 
 257 [00:25] <swoody> I'm in favor of keeping, and adding an icon
 258 
 259 [00:25] <cprofitt> and people looking at members profiles will see it and see that a group exists
 260 
 261 [00:25] <Ash_R> its a subtle minor change :)

 436 
 437 [00:30] <MootBot> LINK received:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/Structure#Jedi%20Council
 438 
 439 [00:30] <nhandler> The purpose of the council is briefly discussed above
 440 
 441 [00:30] <nhandler> Sadly, paultag is not present
 442 
 443 [00:31] <nhandler> Based on the discussion on the mailing list, it appears that several members want the council to take a more active role in the running of the team
 444 
 445 [00:31] <Bodsda> note: agenda item added (sorry for last minute addition)
 446 
 447 [00:31] <nhandler> Before doing this, I would like to decide on a clear purpose and guidelines for the council
 448 
 449 [00:31] <duanedesign> what is not being done?
 450 
 451 [00:32] <bodhizazen> icon has been changed ;)
 452 
 453 [00:32] <Bodsda> yay :)

 455 [00:32] <nhandler> [IDEA] Have council create charter to be approved at next team meeting
 456 
 457 [00:32] <MootBot> IDEA received:  Have council create charter to be approved at next team meeting
 458 
 459 [00:32] <nhandler> This is what the motu-release team did during the Jaunty cycle
 460 
 461 [00:33] <cprofitt> it may take more than one meeting to iron out a charter
 462 
 463 [00:33] <bodhizazen> I think I missed the discussion nhandler =)
 464 
 465 [00:33] <cprofitt> but the idea is sound...
 466 
 467 [00:33] <Rocket2DMn> Just FYI, I won't be here for the next meeting.   I'm leaving Friday for vacation
 468 
 469 [00:33] <cprofitt> I also did not catch this discussion on the mailing list...
 470 
 471 [00:33] <bodhizazen> what is it we want the council to do ?
 472 
 473 [00:33] <Rocket2DMn> I won't be able to participate in such a discussion at this time
 474 
 475 [00:33] <cprofitt> I will have to make sure I am on it...
 476 
 477 [00:33] <bodhizazen> in general
 478 
 479 [00:33] <cprofitt> Rocket2DMn, why?
 480 
 481 [00:33] <ibuclaw> nhandler, afaik, the "Knights" are the proactive role members in general who try to keep the peace
 482 
 483 [00:34] <Rocket2DMn> cprofitt, i can right now (this evening), but ill be gone for a few weeks starting on Friday, and I'm very busy up til then.
 484 
 485 [00:34] <nhandler> ibuclaw: I agree. I expressed my opinion on the issue on the list
 486 
 487 [00:34] <ibuclaw> the "Council" make decisions when things escalate beyond what the "Knights" can handle (ie: temp bannings, etc,etc)
 488 
 489 [00:34] <Rocket2DMn> so i wont be able to help much with putting together a proposal
 490 
 491 [00:34] <cprofitt> k
 492

 588 
 589 [00:37] <duanedesign> I think the main proponent of the council taking on a more active role was ptag

 593 [00:37] <MootBot> ACTION received:  Council to schedule meeting to start work on a charter
 594 
 595 [00:37] <Rocket2DMn> Did you want to include paultag directly in creating that charter?
 596 
 597 [00:37] <nhandler> Yes Rocket2DMn ?
 598 
 599 [00:38] <jamesrfla> bodhizazen: is there a wiki on that?
 600 
 601 [00:38] <cprofitt> woah...
 602 
 603 [00:38] <cprofitt> that was 10 abstentions... I do not think the measure passed
 604 
 605 [00:38] <nhandler> Rocket2DMn: I have no objections to including him
 606 
 607 [00:38] <bodhizazen> no jamesrfla  , we had a discussion  on a task list at one point ...
 608 
 609 [00:38] <MontelEdwards> cprofitt: is right
 610 
 611 [00:39] <nhandler> cprofitt: A vote of +0 is non-blocking on the issue
 612 
 613 [00:39] <cprofitt> nhandler, ?
 614 
 615 [00:39] <cprofitt> We had less than 50% of the members vote yes
 616 
 617 [00:39] <nhandler> cprofitt: Only a vote of -1 is considered "blocking" on an issue. +0 does not block.
 618 
 619 [00:39] <swoody> cprofitt:  but nobody voted to stop it :)
 620 
 621 [00:39] <cprofitt> if we are going to have a +1 and 20 +0s = a yes vote I will stop voting +0
 622 
 623 [00:39] <duanedesign> even if a charted is a reiteration of already established procedure, at least it was addressed
 624 
 625 [00:40] <MontelEdwards> MootBot: should take off +0 because its pointless
 626 
 627 [00:40] <cprofitt> do we have rules for votes...
 628 
 629 [00:40] <bodhizazen> abstentions do not prevent a measure from passing, you need to -1
 630 
 631 [00:40] <Rocket2DMn> duanedesign makes a good point
 632 
 633 [00:40] <cprofitt> please change my vote to a -1 then
 634 
 635 [00:40] <Rocket2DMn> we can just reiterate what we already do
 636 
 637 [00:40] <Rocket2DMn> (and dont do)
 638 
 639 [00:40] <nhandler> cprofitt: No, we have not created clear guidelines for the votes
 640 
 641 [00:40] <Hellow> What if the entire team votes +0?
 642 
 643 [00:40] <cprofitt> as the voting does not follow any rules I am familiar with
 644 
 645 [00:40] <Hellow> er, 0
 646 
 647 [00:40] <MontelEdwards> Good question habtool
 648 
 649 [00:40] <MontelEdwards> ah
 650 
 651 [00:40] <MontelEdwards> Hellow:
 652 
 653 [00:40] <nhandler> cprofitt: We have been using the standard voting procedure used by most other teams in the community
 654 
 655 [00:40] <bodhizazen> we have, however, discussed votes before
 656 
 657 [00:41] <bodhizazen> In general ....
 658 
 659 [00:41] <bodhizazen> to block an action you need to -1
 660 
 661 [00:41] <cprofitt> nhandler, I did not know we had a procedure to handle such a large contingent of +0 votes
 662 
 663 [00:41] <bodhizazen> In general if the majority of the team abstains we put the item on the next meetings agenda
 664 
 665 [00:42] <cprofitt> bodhizazen, +1
 666 
 667 [00:42] <cprofitt> that is what I thought
 668 
 669 [00:42] <Joeb454> I'd say put it on the next agenda
 670 
 671 [00:42] <nhandler> However, in this case, we are just having the council propose a charter (which won't take affect until approved at the next meeting)
 672 
 673 [00:42] <Joeb454> paultag isn't here either
 674 
 675 [00:42] <Ash_R> me too
 676 
 677 [00:42] <cprofitt> and with only 2 votes for and 10 abstentions I would not count it as passed
 678 
 679 [00:42] <Joeb454> though nhandler does have a point...
 680 
 681 [00:42] <bodhizazen> we have no "rules" for how many voting members need to be present to hold a vote or what % an action needs to pass
 682 
 683 [00:42] <MontelEdwards> bodhizazen nhandler cprofitt can we just re vote?
 684 
 685 [00:42] <bodhizazen> has been "simple majority"
 686 
 687 [00:42] <MontelEdwards> Now that we know the rulew
 688 
 689 [00:42] <bodhizazen> yes :)
 690 
 691 [00:42] <Hellow> I would have to say that 10 abstentions and 2 +1s would not pass
 692 
 693 [00:42] <zu22> hi guys
 694 
 695 [00:42] <st33med> 2/3s?
 696 
 697 [00:43] <Joeb454> MontelEdwards: you're not on the team, technically you shouldn't be voting :
 698 
 699 [00:43] <Hellow> at least, if it was under my control :)
 700 
 701 [00:43] <bodhizazen> well Hellow 2 +1 and 10 0 technically =

 867 [00:48] <Rocket2DMn> what?! really!?
 868 
 869 [00:48] <Hellow> Was about to ask if we had already done thing :P
 870 
 871 [00:48] <nhandler> We went from the Ubuntu Forums Beginners Team (UFBT) to the Ubuntu Beginners Team (UBT)
 872 
 873 [00:48] <Hellow> this*
 874 
 875 [00:48] <ibuclaw> Rocket2DMn, I'm just as shocked as you
 876 
 877 [00:48] <duanedesign> \o/
 878 
 879 [00:48] <nhandler> This means that all Launchpad teams were also renamed
 880 
 881 [00:48] <bodhizazen> and the channel :)
 882 
 883 [00:48] <nhandler> So our main team is now https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-beginners

 890 
 891 [00:49] <nhandler> The Focus Group teams went from ~ubuntuforums-beginners-foo to ~ubuntu-beginners-foo
 892 
 893 [00:49] <nhandler> During this transition, the mailing lists and their archives were deleted
 894 
 895 [00:49] <bodhizazen> Rocket2DMn: It was a request from the CC really
 896 
 897 [00:49] <nhandler> However, the mailing list for the main team and for the council are now back up (but with new addresses)
 898 
 899 [00:49] <Hellow> Not really a request, more of a suggestion :P
 900 
 901 [00:49] <zu22> nhandler: lol why delete the archives? isn't that useful to have?
 902 
 903 [00:50] <nhandler> zu22: It made it a LOT easier on the LP admins. And many team members have copies if needed
 904 
 905 [00:50] <Rocket2DMn> bodhizazen, i know, i was playing dumb :)
 906 
 907 [00:50] <zu22> nhandler: ah
 908 
 909 [00:50] <nhandler> The IRC channel also moved to #ubuntu-beginners
 910 
 911 [00:50] <bodhizazen> Ah, you got me Rocket2DMn
 912 
 913 [00:50] <nhandler> Now, we are working on ensuring that all wiki pages have the correct information
 914 
 915 [00:50] <bodhizazen> lol

 928 
 929 [00:51] <cprofitt> bodhizazen, the headers are all that likely need to be changed...
 930 
 931 [00:51] <cprofitt> so it should be simple to ensure that...
 932 
 933 [00:51] <Hellow> bodhizazen: Although I admit that would be nice, isnt that covered, at least in part, by the various agendas that we have?
 934 
 935 [00:51] <duanedesign> will #ubuntuforums-beginners eventually stop forwarding to #ubuntu-beginners?
 936 
 937 [00:51] <cprofitt> I will check the EDU team header after the meeting
 938 
 939 [00:52] <bodhizazen> no duanedesign
 940 
 941 [00:52] <nhandler> cprofitt: I think I got the headers fixed. But many pages include the mailing list URL or links to the LP page or IRC channel
 942 
 943 [00:52] <cprofitt> k
 944 
 945 [00:52] <cprofitt> I will check the EDU pages tonight
 946

1204

1211 [01:06] <duanedesign> good i think
1212 
1213 [01:06] <Hellow> bodhizazen: Sometimes behavior with some of our newer visitors gets out of hand
1214 
1215 [01:06] <bodhizazen> cprofitt: there was a last minute change and the team became disinterested in "elections"
1216 
1217 [01:06] <bodhizazen> lol

1220

1233 [01:06] <cprofitt> I respect your lead... and you have built us so far bodhizazen
1234 
1235 [01:06] <cprofitt> we should change the wiki then

1283 [01:09] <jamesrfla> ibuclaw: they can take my ##ubunteen channel
1284 
1285 [01:10] <nhandler> Bodsda: If 2 members have a problem, it should be brought to the Council's attention
1286 
1287 [01:10] <ibuclaw> sorry if there are any spelling mistakes :)
1288 
1289 [01:10] <bodhizazen> ibuclaw: we have some people on the team interested in helping me with the young members

1295 [01:10] <Hellow> bodhizazen: I will help, even though I am young myself :P

1301 [01:10] <Bodsda> nhandler: ok, il go there in future, ty
1302 
1303 [01:11] <bodhizazen> and not embarrass people on the main channel
1304 
1305 [01:11] <nhandler> Any more things to discuss?
1306 
1307 [01:11] <bodhizazen> it is a behavior group, not a social club if you catch my drift =)
1308 
1309 [01:11] <bodhizazen> Thanks Hellow
1310 
1311 [01:11] <nhandler> I guess I will handle the minutes for this meeting again.
1312 
1313 [01:11] <bodhizazen> we could probably use a wiki page :)
