(21:00:05) jean7491: hi to all, who is here for the meeting ?
(21:00:34) JanC: I'm around
(21:05:17) pvandewyngaerde [n=id984031@91.179.193.248] a rejoint le salon.
(21:05:26) pvandewyngaerde a quitté le salon
(21:11:25) JanC: hm, nobody here for the meeting?
(21:11:57): i can pretend to be
(21:12:27) jean7491: Gh0sty ?
(21:12:37) jean7491: hfsdo?
(21:12:47) hfsdo: i am here
(21:13:20) jean7491: hello selckin, hfsdo
(21:14:26) JanC: okay, I don't have a lot of time really (and a LC-related meeting starting at midnight too)
(21:15:12) JanC: so can we do whatever is most important first? ツ
(21:15:27) jean7491: to hold it short with the actual participants ...
(21:16:04) jean7491: opic 1. past and future events - dipro charleroi 11/10 - report is in the wiki
(21:16:16) jean7491: according to information i received, it was a positive experience of cooperation with a local lug: it can be repeated if we found motivated lug's for other events.
(21:16:58) jean7491: but only if motivated active lug!
(21:17:16) jean7491: comment?
(21:18:21) jean7491: if not dipro ostend 18/10 - we need volunteers for the booth, but can run the booth with 3
(21:18:36) JanC: "active lugs" seems to be something that (almost?) only exists in Wallonia & Brussels :-/
(21:19:05) jean7491: indeed
(21:19:39) jean7491: next : dipro oostmalle 25/10
(21:20:00) jean7491: 
(21:21:21) jean7491: contacts with nokelu (local lug): nearly no active lug, although some motivated members (at least 3)
(21:22:03) jean7491: we still need 2 volunteers for this fair - otherwise we have to cancel this event.
(21:22:38) JanC: :-/
(21:22:52) jean7491: and if we succeed to find these 2 volunteers, the next difficulty will be to bring material from ostend to oostmalle - in a very short time!
(21:23:42) jean7491: hfsdo: i did the maximum i can, but no solution
(21:25:04) hfsdo: i don't know either how to solve this
(21:26:10) jean7491: i think it is better to cancel the participation to this fair, 2 volunteers is not enough to run the booth
(21:26:25) hfsdo: i think that's the best thing to do
(21:26:51) jean7491: yes, i will inform siegie
(21:26:52) JanC: 2 could work on a small fair, but if one of them gets sick or for another reason can't come...
(21:27:15) hfsdo: than it's not possible
(21:27:38) jean7491: ok, it is cancelled
(21:28:17) jean7491: then next event
(21:28:38) jean7491: dipro fair in ghent 08/11 - the preparation has to start next week. the 2 first names are already in the wiki - nothing else to mention
(21:29:39) jean7491: just to ask to kenneth (or someone else) if he can coordinate the booth
(21:32:13) JanC: GrayFox: don't you live near Ghent too?
(21:32:28) jean7491: selckin : if you are from ghent area (?), check if you can help on 08/11 dipro ghent?
(21:33:02) selckin: i'm from gent, but i don't really know what it involves
(21:33:43) JanC: selckin: explaining Ubuntu to fair visitors mostly
(21:33:52) mongolito404 [n=pbuyle@83.101.7.62] a rejoint le salon.
(21:34:04) selckin: doubt i'd be any good for that
(21:34:54) JanC: selckin: almost none of us are born salespeople ;)
(21:35:25) mongolito404 a quitté le salon (quit: "Leaving.")
(21:35:28) GrayFox: no jean7491, i do not :)
(21:36:06) JanC: GrayFox: where do you live? ;)
(21:36:54) GrayFox: hasselt
(21:37:29) jean7491: selckin : mostly just explain to people your personal experience (but low level), more details are in the call for help in the mailing list (or send me an email address through personal message
(21:38:43) selckin: sorry but not something i can do
(21:39:49) jean7491: as jan has not enough time available, we go ahead to the next item
(21:40:06) jean7491: release party in ghent 21/11
(21:40:37) jean7491: we have to start the preparation of the release party and we need volunteers helping for the organization/preparation of the party ...
(21:40:44) GrayFox: cool
(21:41:30) jean7491: we need a working-group of volunteers in charge of the event, mike and schwarz_p are already in: who else? i hope this group will start working - but unfortunatly both are not here tonight
(21:42:27) jean7491: just for your information : first questions to be answer by the working-group: what do we want to do? and which audience are we targeting? how many participants?
(21:43:22) jean7491: and only after that where? and the content: the working-group can look for more contacts
(21:43:45) jean7491: comments?
(21:45:23) jean7491: last event in november: dipro fair antwerp 29/11 - 2 names are already in the wiki and i found a coordinator, i hope other volunteers will appear - we have enough time!
(21:46:06) JanC: okay
(21:46:15) jean7491: if no comment about events, topic 2. promotion material
(21:47:10) jean7491: first question : others ideas for promotion material? what do we still need?
(21:47:32) koentje [i=57402484@gateway/web/freenode/x-wzylanjhmksmyqcc] a rejoint le salon.
(21:47:49) jean7491: new ideas are always welcome, eventually through the mailing list
(21:48:13) GrayFox: hmmm u can't be flyering about this sort of events, what promo do have planned already?
(21:50:12) jean7491: was thinking about promotional material (posters, flyers, cd sleeves, ...) to be used in our activities
(21:51:06) GrayFox: that seems ok
(21:51:09) jean7491: promotion of the release party is another problem, to be look for by the working group
(21:51:17) GrayFox: a facebook event to rsvp to! :)
(21:51:35) GrayFox: ow right
(21:53:00) jean7491: next item - about event boxes
(21:53:22) jean7491: i have no answer about who is in charge of ghent event box ?
(21:54:48) jean7491: no answer! with the multiplication of events in antwerp area, an event box there could be useful and i am working on the topic for dipro 29/11
(21:56:27) jean7491: hardware we need is still 2 lcd screens, as large as possible, (or crt) 
(21:57:21) jean7491: next topic # 3. about Support points - questions about the reliability and the update of the list/map,
(21:57:26) JanC: preferably no CRT !
(21:57:41) JanC: especially not large CRT
(21:58:56) jean7491: if someone has 1 or 2 lcd screen for the event boxes ? 
(21:59:35) jean7491: coming back on support points map : as already stated, we need to update the support map as the lack of reaction of support points gives a negative image of ubuntu community
(21:59:52) jean7491: what can we do?
(22:00:50) jean7491: JanC : infor from your contact?
(22:02:44) JanC: no, not yet
(22:03:19) jean7491: ok, we see later! has someone another question, not in the agenda?
(22:04:11) JanC: not immediately ツ
(22:04:38) jean7491: ok, next meeting ? proposed on 21/10/2009 at 21 h
