  47 [00:07] <Silver_Fox_> [IDEA] DevFG A new look to the Dev Focus Group
  48 [00:07] <MootBot> IDEA received:  DevFG A new look to the Dev Focus Group
  49 [00:07] <Silver_Fox_> DiegoTc,  Its you :)
  50 [00:07] <DiegoTc> yeap
  51 [00:08] <DiegoTc> I was talking with duanedesign about creating a programming academy for the devFG https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DiegoTurcios/DevFG
  52 [00:08] <wojox> That sounds like fun
  53 [00:09] <zkriesse> Guys sorry I didn't add it to the agenda (just got it figured out here today) but I'll have a topic after everyone else is done if that's ok
  54 [00:09] <zkriesse> DiegoTc: Ok, to what goal?
  55 [00:09] <DiegoTc> zkriesse: I wrote them on the wiki
  56 [00:09] <DiegoTc> # Help new users to learn a new programming language # When there is a group with a better knowledge, the dev focus group can work on developing application (Small or Big Projects) that can benefit Ubuntu
  57 [00:10] <DiegoTc> Others (Still Thinking)
  58 [00:10] <pedro3005> zkriesse, what nobler goal if not the publicizing and distribution of knowledge? :)
  59 [00:10] <nhandler> o/
  60 [00:10] <zkriesse> very good response pedro3005
  61 [00:10] <Silver_Fox_> nhandler,  Go
  62 [00:10] <Silver_Fox_> :)
  63 [00:11] <nhandler> Silver_Fox_: I just got here, nothing to say right now (still reading scrollback)
  64 [00:11] <DiegoTc> So thats the idea for the dev FG
  65 [00:11] <Silver_Fox_> Ah righto :)  Well we decided to crack on nhandler
  66 [00:11] <duanedesign> o/
  67 [00:11] <Silver_Fox_> Go duanedesign
  68 [00:12] <duanedesign> the council has been discussing lately the 'mission' of each FG and the setting of goals by each group/
  69 [00:12] <duanedesign> I like diegos idea
  70 [00:12] <zkriesse> Ok
  71 [00:13] <duanedesign> i think the teaching of classes is something we could couple with the eduFG
  72 [00:13] <duanedesign> if we could have classses in #ubuntu-classroom
  73 [00:13] <cprofitt> duanedesign: the edu had worked with classroom -- but the focus was on off-line self-paced courses
  74 [00:14] <cprofitt> we had a Moodle server that leveraged wiki docs and forum posts
  75 [00:15] <duanedesign> i think in addition to what DiegoTc said the DevFG should start working towards getting its members to be MOTU's
  76 [00:15]  * DiegoTc there is expectation on the channel :p
  77 [00:15] <Silver_Fox_> Okay,  so do we have an item to vote on or not? :)
  78 [00:16] <Silver_Fox_> Was it an announcement DiegoTc ?  Or are you seeking support for it ?
  79 [00:16] <DiegoTc> option b
  80 [00:16] <nhandler> Nothing really to vote on. It is really up to the FG lead
  81 [00:16] <DiegoTc> nhandler: I never get collinp on irc :S
  82 [00:16] <Silver_Fox_> Yes,  I thought it would have been in the FG meeting, not the team meeting
  83 [00:17] <Silver_Fox_> Okay,  moving on...
  84 [00:17] <nhandler> DiegoTc: You can use email / MemoServ ;)
  85 [00:17] <Silver_Fox_> Unless anyone has anything to add
  86 [00:17] <collinp> Wow. Forgot meeting was going on.
  87 [00:17] <duanedesign> ha
  88 [00:17] <DiegoTc> thanks I always wonder how i do that
  89 [00:17] <duanedesign> :)
  90 [00:17] <zkriesse> For shame collinp!
  91 [00:17] <DiegoTc> Guys I am leving I had clases righ now :S
