(21:17:03) Gh0sty: moet al wel een jaar geleden zijn dat ik nog konfituur gegeten heb :| (21:17:15) ***JackJill watertanden (21:17:41) nightrid3r: eeeeww konfituur van een jaar oud :( (21:17:41) Gh0sty: sinds mijn ma licht suikerziek is komt hier nog maar weinig konfituur in huis :/ (21:18:07) Wamukota: me also diabetis type 2 (21:18:13) JackJill: Leuke uitvinding: confituur voor diabeet (21:18:15) Gh0sty: *por* JanC (21:18:30) Gh0sty: mja maar tis toch niet hetzelfde als materne :P (21:21:36) OmegaII: Gh0sty wist ge dat er konfituur zonder suiker is ;) , tenzij ze geen fruit mag eten tous court :x (21:21:46) OmegaII: smaak is't zelfde (21:21:59) Gh0sty: das wat JackJill net ook zei (21:22:05) Gh0sty: maar ik zeg dat normale beter is :P (21:22:30) Gh0sty: want die suikervervangers ... maakt uwe konfituur harder, maar soit, we zijn hier niet om over konfituur te zeveren :P (21:22:30) OmegaII: kk , over gelezen sorry :) (21:22:34) Gh0sty: ubuntu dan maar ... ? :p (21:22:59) jean7491: OmegaII : where are from ? are you here for the meeting ? (21:23:00) JackJill: Is dat ook een merk van confituur? (21:23:01) OmegaII: doe maar I'll be silent again ^^ (21:23:22) Gh0sty: :P (21:23:25) OmegaII: No jean7491 I was looking for help, just idlinghere, so I'll be silent again, I had no clue there was a meeting sorry (21:23:28) Gh0sty: hmm nice promo idea (21:23:32) Gh0sty: ubuntu confituur :P (21:23:48) Wamukota: OmegaII, what is your question (21:23:55) jean7491: meeting is not about confituur ! (21:23:58) Wamukota: don't wory for the meeting (21:24:11) Gh0sty: Remember IRC meeting today Wednesday 10/06/2009 at 21 h. on #ubuntu-be -- (21:24:11) Gh0sty: irc.freenode.net (21:24:11) Gh0sty: See agenda in wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/IrcMeetings (21:24:41) Wamukota: OmegaII, you are even welcome to participate in the meeting (21:24:47) OmegaII: I'm still investigating Wamukota, still figuring out if it's a software or a hardware problem. So I'll ask it later on :) (21:24:48) OmegaII: Thx :) (21:25:14) Wamukota: OmegaII, oke (21:25:34) Wamukota: jean7491, are we ready to start? (21:25:42) jean7491: topic 1. is IRC meeting as communication channel of the Be LoCo Team (21:26:19) jean7491: we started regular irc meetings as a way to exchange information and views about subject related to ubuntu-be (21:26:41) jean7491: it is not easy to find the day and hour for the meeting that everybody is happy with. (21:27:12) Wamukota: Why not use the Ubuntu LoCo Team Forums (http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=183) (21:27:28) Wamukota: that way we can communicate in a off-line way (21:27:40) Wamukota: and discuss the results in the weekly chat (21:27:55) jean7491: but only a small group (today a very small)is taking part or following the meeting. (21:28:23) Wamukota: well yes, and by using the forum, we can have more info available during the time of a week (21:28:51) jean7491: i don't know this forum (21:28:59) Wamukota: just have a look (21:29:13) Wamukota: many loco teams world wide have a forum there (21:29:32) Gh0sty: im fine with the day and hour but if I don't open my mail on the right (like today) it might slip my short memory span ... (21:29:48) jean7491: with the system of irc meeting : for who is not present at the meeting, we publish in the mailing list a report, as in the wiki, with the log. we can assume that everyone has the possibility to read the report in the mailing list and the wiki. (21:30:12) Gh0sty: oh and i read my backlogs usually however the one from last week was big :p (21:30:43) mimor: hello all, sorry I'm late (21:31:07) Wamukota: no props, we started late anyhow (21:31:55) jean7491: there is very limited reaction to the meeting reports, and i am optimist (21:32:56) Wamukota: you could deduct from the response that few are interested (21:33:16) Wamukota: or that we are not talking about the stuff they are interested in (21:33:45) jean7491: perhaps (21:34:16) mimor: The meeting-reports are a big help (21:34:29) mimor: as I sometimes miss a meeting, I can easily catch up (21:34:43) Wamukota: although this week there was some activity on the maillist with new volunteers proposing to assist during Dpro's (21:35:03) Wamukota: so there is interest, but not for this kind of meetings apparantly (21:35:20) JanC: most people don't have the time to attend regular meetings and be active all the time, I fear... (21:35:42) mimor: This meeting is actually more popular for people supporting ubuntu-be as a total, whilst others on the mailing list are more bystanders I guess (21:35:46) Wamukota: yes, and we all have a family, and kids, .... (21:36:03) JanC: even if they might want to help for occasional activities (21:36:06) mimor: JanC: that's nothing to fear off ;) (don't be scared) (21:36:14) jean7491: or 1 meeting each week is too much (21:36:37) mimor: To me, the things are fine in the way they are now (21:36:47) Wamukota: we could make a meeting 'on call' with a default of one per month for example (21:36:56) JanC: jean7491: obviously it is too much for many people, but nobody has to attend every meeting (21:36:57) mimor: one less wouldn't be enough on dates befor some event (21:37:24) JanC: assigning special meetings about 1 specific topic might be a good idea though (21:38:12) mimor: jup, but they shouldn't replace the fixed-date meeting (21:38:13) jean7491: JanC did you follow since the beginning ? (21:38:33) JanC: I've read most, I think ツ (21:38:49) mimor: hmmm... confituur ;-) (I've read it all) (21:38:56) Wamukota: lol (21:38:57) Gh0sty: LOL (21:39:03) Gh0sty: shtttt :P (21:39:05) JackJill: lol (21:39:33) mimor: who would like less meetings? (21:39:49) JackJill est désormais connu sous le nom de materne (21:40:04) mimor: I prefer attending as much meetings as I can, and read the reports for those I missed (21:40:21) mib_o3l7qm [i=51530769@gateway/web/ajax/mibbit.com/x-2eae2615a8fa1aa1] a rejoint le salon. (21:40:32) Gh0sty: I read the list as well, but don't always respond (21:40:43) mimor: There's nothing to respond :) (21:40:48) jean7491: as we are never more than 6 or 7 in the meeting, it can not be consider as a communication channel of the Be LoCo Team ! (21:40:55) Gh0sty: like with the dipro stuff is all fine, but it's not like I plan stuff like that 3 months beforehand (21:41:01) mimor: Its a F11 button for the memory (21:41:02) Wamukota: correct jean7491 (21:41:39) mimor: But it's still nice to put things on order (21:41:40) Wamukota: if you count the number of members and those who attend, few are intereseted (21:41:52) mimor: or few have the time (21:42:08) Julius [n=julius@unaffilated/julius] a rejoint le salon. (21:42:08) mimor: but those who don't have the time to attend it every week, can still join whenever they want (21:42:12) JanC: jean7491: it is one communication channel (21:42:19) JanC: but not the only one (21:42:20) Wamukota: but look at the list of users now on-line, and not 10 are taking part (21:42:23) Julius: Hello (21:42:36) Wamukota: hoi Juje007 (21:42:44) Wamukota: hoi Julius (21:42:47) JanC: jean7491: the mailing list is also there (21:42:52) mimor: when I first joined, there were only 3 people taking part ;) (21:43:13) Julius: I'm a member of "Sambrelug", a LUG here in Wallonie :) I've just checked my mail and see that there's an irc meeting here. My english is not really good but... I'm here :) (21:43:16) mimor: So I guess it needs to grow a little bit (21:43:31) Wamukota: JanC, for a newcomer a forum is probably more appriate than an IRC channel (21:43:44) mimor: Julius: You're welcome. If there's something that you don't understand, you can still ask (21:43:53) Wamukota: and later he/she will join us here (21:44:01) JanC: Julius: if there is a word you don't know in English, feel free to throw in French words, several people can translate if needed ;) (21:44:02) jean7491: welcome julius (21:44:07) mimor: Wamukota; JanC: I agree (21:44:43) mimor: A forum would be nice.. (21:44:45) Julius: JanC: good idea :) thanks... I think you can remember me ? I'm the contact you had for the Ubuntu 8.04 cd's in Wallonie. You sent me a part of the cd's that were sent to the Loco (21:45:04) JanC: Wamukota: maybe, if you want to take care of it (e.g. forward ideas, issues, etc. to these IRC-meetings or the mailing list) (21:45:10) Wamukota: mimor, have a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=183 (21:45:19) Wamukota: thay have loco forums there (21:46:01) JanC: Julius: I remember giving CDs to liezie, who brought them to Brussels, for somebody in Wallonia ツ (21:46:01) mimor: k (21:46:06) jean7491: i presume we can not say more about our 1st topic IRC meeting, and the arrival of Julius is a good transition to the 2d topic (21:46:32) jean7491: 2. Relation with other LUG's and computer clubs (21:46:40) Julius: JanC: yes that's it... I received that in Louvain-la-Neuve and bring it with me in Sambreville where some guys of the NamurLUG and the FSUGAr took some of it (21:46:56) JanC: oh, right, there was one more step :P (21:46:57) Gh0sty: just a last tought: maybe not such a bad idea only irc meeting every couple of weeks? (21:47:04) Julius: jean7491: I've just answered to your mail ;) (21:47:37) mimor: first toppic wasn't closed yet I guess? (21:47:38) jean7491: ok, received but not yet read (21:47:57) mimor: Will there be anything changed on the meetings? will there be a LoCo forum? (21:48:00) Wamukota: I have one person that responded to my request on Seniorennet and became member of the maillist (21:48:36) jean7491: wait for topic 2, (21:48:39) JanC: Wamukota: would you like to set up and help "run" an ubuntu-be locoteam forum? (21:48:53) Wamukota: no problem JanC , count me in (21:48:59) JanC: meaning that you forward interesting things to the mailing list? (21:49:12) Wamukota: fine, i'll be the gobetween then (21:49:33) JanC: because i don't have the time / motivation to frequently visit those forums ;) (21:49:37) Wamukota: i can mod the forum and pass all interesting data from and to the maillist (21:49:58) JanC: and I'm pretty sure Gh0sty & some others here don't either (21:50:06) mimor: I'm also a volunteer the forum if needed (21:50:18) Julius: I'm sorry, I didn't see the beginning of the discussion but what do you want to improve ? Do the loco want to be in touch with "not-geek" or what ? Because I think the main difficulty for people finding help on Ubuntu-be is the language (21:50:29) Julius: (on the ML I guess...) (21:50:29) Gh0sty: hmmm I have been looking for some forum which includes mailinglist in the past, did not find anything though :/ (21:50:39) Gh0sty: had some similar idea for ugov (21:50:47) JanC: Julius: ubuntu-be isn't really about "technical help" (21:51:06) Filbert a quitté le salon (quit: Remote closed the connection) (21:51:10) JanC: Gh0sty: ping me after the meeting ;) (21:51:19) Gh0sty: Running a simplemachines forum for a long time ... :) (21:51:25) Gh0sty: or better several (21:51:44) JanC: Wamukota: it would also be good to forward important things from the ML to the forums then etc. (21:52:01) JanC: like requests for help, reports, etc. (21:52:27) Wamukota: JanC, AFAIK you should make the request and add my name to the list of mods (see http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=290685) (21:52:43) JanC: okay, I'll look into it (21:53:04) jean7491: Julius : the 1st topic was about improving the irc meeting as communication channel of the LoCo team (frequency, topics, ...) (21:53:09) Wamukota: and I'll do the rest then (21:54:10) mib_o3l7qm a quitté le salon (quit: "http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client") (21:54:22) Julius: jean7491: ok... I will read the report. np (21:54:49) JanC: Wamukota: it would also mostly be about peopel asking Belgian-organisation-specific things (for technical support the nl/fr forums are better in general) (21:55:33) Wamukota: oke. only Belgian Loco stuff of course (21:55:43) JanC: and I think language isn't really a problem for you ツ (21:55:53) Wamukota: no, can be Nl - Fr or En (21:57:49) JanC: *sigh*, now I have to find my ubuntuforums account... :P (21:57:57) Wamukota: hihihi (21:58:26) JanC: okay, it's in Revelation (my "password database") (21:58:32) Wamukota: and we must also adapt the data in the forum column on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamList (21:58:59) Wamukota: there are 2 forums mentioned there, but they are not loco oriented (21:59:13) JanC: well, add the new forum to that (21:59:58) JanC: there is some overlap between LoCos (22:01:07) JanC: anyway, next topic ;) (22:01:20) jean7491: about irc meetings, any change ? (22:01:35) jean7491: periodicity? topics? (22:02:00) Wamukota: do we change the frequency during the summer hollidays? (22:02:48) Wamukota: if we go one every 2 weeks in July and August we'll experience if that works for the rest of the year (22:03:51) jean7491: suggestion : no change in june and 1/2weeks in july-august. later ? (22:04:07) Wamukota: fine for me (22:04:15) Gh0sty: y (22:04:28) materne: ok (22:04:59) jean7491: JanC? (22:05:06) jean7491: mimor? (22:05:10) Juje007 a quitté le salon (quit: Connection timed out) (22:05:46) JanC: fine for me ツ (22:06:11) jean7491: topic 2. Relation with other LUG's and computer clubs (22:07:04) Wamukota: I have one person that responded to my request on Seniorennet and became member of the maillist (22:07:10) Wamukota: for the rest nothing (22:07:53) jean7491: anything about lugs? i proposed Julius to exchange information ubuntu-be - sambrelug, and perhaps cooperate (22:08:33) Gh0sty: ugov is present ^^ (22:08:52) jean7491: for more activities in the french-speaking part of be. (22:08:58) Gh0sty: but it's not like all of our members are ubuntu fans, I usually forward stuff :p (22:09:34) jean7491: in 2 directions? (22:09:38) materne: What about Zeus, Lugwv? (22:09:58) mimor: jean7491: ok (little late) (22:10:01) Gh0sty: I forward meetings and stuff to our mailinglist (22:10:10) Gh0sty: it's for them to decide if they are interested :p (22:10:26) Julius: I answered that all parts os Sambrelug likes Ubuntu and that's a good idea to promote it. That's already what we're doing but we've never been yet in an "Computer event" (dipro) (22:10:30) Gh0sty: hmm Zeus ... trying to get some contacts in there like *forever* (22:10:45) Gh0sty: from someone I heard most members of zeus are actually W-vl :p (22:10:56) Gh0sty: and lugwv not sure if that still exists? :/ (22:11:17) JanC: materne: lugwv is mostly dead (22:11:46) JanC: except for #lugwv which has 2.5 people who still talk sometimes (22:11:48) Gh0sty: even though there exists another alternative around w-vl :) (22:11:48) materne: Zeus == lugwv (22:12:18) JanC: materne: no, it's not (22:12:25) Julius: Do Ubuntu-be have a list of event where it can be interested to have someone who represent Ubuntu ? Maybe this informations can help LUG's to focus on activities where they can take part (22:12:49) JanC: Julius: yes, on the wiki (22:13:10) JanC: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/FutureEvents (22:13:27) Wamukota: and also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/ComputerFairs (22:13:49) JanC: Wamukota: the other one is better (more general) (22:14:00) JanC: even if more events could be added ;) (22:15:05) jean7491: Julius on 11/10 a Dirpo fair in Charleroi (22:15:08) Julius: That's a really good point. I think Sambrelug can take part in this. (22:16:00) Julius: jean7491: yes, we can go there. And there's a new LUG in Charleroi so I think we can be both there (22:16:57) Julius: (I'm posting something on our forum about that) (22:17:47) jean7491: Julius, we can later consider what we can do, ... i probably will contact the ubuntu support points from charleroi area to try to find volunteers ... (22:18:23) jean7491: starting in september (22:18:34) JanC: Sambrelug is from Charleroi, right? (22:18:48) JanC: or from Sambreville? (22:18:57) JanC: or something like that ツ (22:19:20) Julius: Sambreville (22:19:28) Julius: It's between Namur and Charleroi (22:20:17) Julius: Here's the website of the new LUG of Charleroi : http://clic.tuxfamily.org/ (22:20:54) Julius: DO y (22:21:19) Julius: Do you think It will be possible to receive CD's for this event ? (22:21:35) Gh0sty: if it's really new please send it to this site: http://www.belgian-lugs.be/ (22:21:39) Julius: I think we can print the other things by ourselves (22:23:34) jean7491: cd's likely available, for other things have a look in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/ComputerFairs#Print%20Documents%20&%20Presentations to find promo things in fr. (22:24:44) jean7491: anything else about contact with lugs ? (22:25:06) jean7491: if not topic 3. Other events (22:25:41) Wamukota: no input from me for topic 3 (22:26:16) mimor: nope (22:27:39) jean7491: dipro fairs are in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/ComputerFairs - due to the 2 holiday months, volunteers for the 2 first fairs in Ghent and Antwerp should add their names in the wiki before end of june. (22:28:06) Gh0sty: I will add my name for ghent when I am sure I can make it :p (22:28:12) Gh0sty: which is in ... 2 months ;) (22:29:26) mimor: same for me (22:29:39) mimor: I'll go on holiday... but I'm not sure when >< (22:29:59) jean7491: when in september ? (22:30:35) mimor: not sure >< (22:31:21) Julius: sorry but I really have to go. Be sure Sambrelug will help more Ubuntu-be in the future. You can have a look at the discussion we will have here if you want : http://sambrelug.lybrafox.be/fluxbb/viewtopic.php?pid=7911 (in french) (22:31:31) mimor: But I'll let you know Whenever I can join (22:31:45) Julius: I will get you informed about this by the ML (22:32:23) jean7491: Julius, you can read the report of the meeting in the mailing list or in the wiki (22:32:38) jean7491: Julius, bye;-) (22:33:07) Julius: ok thanks.
