   1  Topic #ubuntu-be : http://ubuntu-be.org | get support at #ubuntu-nl, #ubuntu-fr, #ubuntu-de, #ubuntu | IRC meeting on Wednesday 2010-02-03 at 21h (UTC+2), see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/IrcMeetings for agenda and more information
   2 <jean7491> Hi to all, who is here for the meeting
   3 <wamukota> I'm here
   4 <XiaoShiZi> +1
   5 <JanC> o/
   6 <nero_> check
   7 <mongolito404> Hi
   8 <jean7491> hello wamukota, XiaoShiZi, JanC, mongolito404, nero_, ....anyone else ? yanu?
   9 <jean7491> i propose to start, mimor will join the chanel later
  10 <jean7491> opic 1 – past and future events 
  11 <mimor> jup
  12 <mimor> Mimor present
  13 <jean7491> hello mimor
  14 <jean7491> dipro ghent 31/01- report
  15 <jean7491> report and pictures are already in the wiki
  16 <jean7491> in his report, kws made some reflexions about the repetition of dipro fairs especially in ghent : 4 fairs in 1 year is perhaps too much
  17 <jean7491> we should find new ways/events to promote ubuntu: all suggestions are welcome!
  18 <jean7491> mimor : comment ?
  19 <mimor> I do agree
  20 <mimor> the reason there were not so many people was probably an over-load of diprofairs :)
  21 <mimor> but it's impossible to tell when there will be a biggeraudience
  22 <mimor> (sorry for the slow typing... my fingers are still frozen... I'm comming from outside)
  23 <jean7491> first we can skip the dipro Ghent on 18/04/2010, 
  24 <mimor> I guess so :)
  25 <jean7491> but we certainly need new ideas
  26 <mimor> We've actually added money ourselves... that's something bad
  27 <mimor> I did hear something about canonical no longer shipping cd's?
  28 <mimor> or did I misread that?
  29 <JanC> only a small number are shipped for free
  30 <JanC> 400 CDs, but that uncludes Kubuntu & Ubuntu Server...
  31 <mimor> even on this day, there were not enough cd's...
  32 <JanC> includes
  33 <mimor> now I know why we should look for a way to get them pressed ourselves
  34 <mimor> but I can't see how we can do this without funding
  35 <JanC> sponsoring...
  36 <JanC> or selling them...
  37 <mimor> If we charge money for the cd's (even a little bit) we have to pay double for the dipro-fairs
  38 <JanC> mimor: no we don't
  39 <mimor> (as we're selling at that moment)
  40 <mimor> I tought we only have to pay half because we're not selling anything?
  41 <mimor> enlighten me plz ;)
  42 <JanC> they said to Mark it's okay as long as we don't sell things that the regular shops sell
  43 <mimor> oh
  44 <mimor> we should be sure tough
  45 <JanC> and as lon,g as we don't become a shop ourselves of course
  46 <mimor> ^^
  47 <JanC> we already sell posters...  ;)
  48 <mimor> almost forgot about that one :)
  49 <JanC> and if any t-shirts are left after FOSDEM, we can sell those too
  50 <JanC> that might be another way to make money of course
  51 <mimor> Put one aside for me
  52 <JanC> you'll be there, so that should be no problem  ;)
  53 <mimor> (as I had to wear a Microsoft IT-pro day's T-shirt a few dipro's ago ><
  54 <jean7491> we should certainly limit the distribution of cd's to the people who are really interested
  55 <mimor> can we make profit by re-selling the T-shirts all trough
  56 <mimor> something like setting up our own web-shop ...
  57 <mimor> or is it forbidden by Canonical?
  58 <JanC> we certainly make a profit on t-shirts
  59 <mimor> the problem with the canonical shop (to me, that is) is that the shipping costs are too high
  60 <JanC> I'm not going to sell t-shirt at a price with 2 figures after the decimal separator ;)
  61 <mimor> So we might try to re-sell ubuntu gear with a lower shipping cost on some way
  62 <mimor> it's just a thought
  63 * streep (~eclips@d5152844E.access.telenet.be) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
  64 <mongolito404> About web-shop. This is not an easy task to run one. It takes some times.
  65 <mongolito404> Off course, not full time.
  66 * streep est parti (Client Quit)
  67 * AndChat| (~eclips@d5152844E.access.telenet.be) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
  68 <mimor> It's not like some online colruyt webshop ofc ;)
  69 <mimor> I don't expect to sell huge loads of stuff
  70 <jean7491> cd's  are certainly a problem but we definitively need new ideas about events and another way to approach potential users
  71 <mongolito404> And if we want to sell goods with the Ubuntu logo we will have to check the legality with Canonical. Beeing an officiel LoCo certainly helps.
  72 <mimor> I propose more Ubuntu-be bloggers
  73 <mimor> If people want to blog about Ubuntu related stuff, I can give them an account on my wordpress ><
  74 <mimor> to approach potential users ofc
  75 <JanC> mongolito404: reselling stuff from canonical's shop is no problem though
  76 <mongolito404> We certainly need more good bloggers.
  77 <JanC> at the fairs etc.
  78 * AndChat- (~eclips@188.188.105.97) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
  79 <mongolito404> And there is certainly many good bloggers ubunteros in Be.
  80 <mongolito404> We as now, we failed to attract them under the Ubuntu-be banner;
  81 <mimor> I'll try to gather the ubuntu blogging belgians :)
  82 <mongolito404> mimor: We have a planet on Ubuntu-be
  83 <mongolito404> But it is not really alive.
  84 <mimor> I know, still have to find out how that works :)
  85 * t00r__ est parti (Remote host closed the connection)
  86 <mongolito404> But the infrastructure is there ready to be used.
  87 <JanC> if you have an account on the site, you can add your blog...
  88 <JanC> IIRC
  89 * AndChat| est parti (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
  90 <mongolito404> Sure it has some glitch but nothing that couldn't be fixed once the motivation of seeing it used is there.
  91 * AndChat| (~eclips@188.188.104.105) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
  92 <mimor> linking all belgian ubuntu blogs trough the blogroll would be a nice start
  93 <mimor> let's set up a wiki page with all blogs from belgian ubuntu users?
  94 <mimor> thats a start to pull belgian ubuntu users closer to the ubuntu-be community ;)
  95 <jean7491> we can continue on this topic at the end of the meeting : coming back to the dipro ghent report, are there other proposals of events in ghent area ?
  96 <mimor> for spreading ubuntu to new people, we can try to mail all city's that we're available to do something if they organise it-related events
  97 <mimor> (Accenta seemed to be a good example)
  98 * AndChat- est parti (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
  99 <mongolito404> mimor: I can arrange the permission on the website so that you, or other, could maintain a blogroll there.
 100 <mimor> would be nice
 101 <mimor> (I guess I have the rights to create it myself, but didn't had the time to look into the drupal thing)
 102 <mimor> jean7491, no further comments on the dirp ghent or other events in ghent for now
 103 <jean7491> there are certainly other opportunities like accenta, but we (=everybody) have to actively look for these events
 104 * ADcomp (~4e8175c8@gateway/web/freenode/x-denddprzzqbppcls) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 105 <jean7491> contact with digipolis ghent was a good example
 106 * selckin est parti (Quit: .)
 107 <mongolito404> Blogroll => https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-belgium/+bug/516732
 108 <ADcomp> hello .. sorry , i'm late :(
 109 <JanC> no problem ADcomp, we've not started FOSDEM yet  ☺
 110 <jean7491> another example, the digital week : like i will do it in ostende, we should participate to this kind of event
 111 <jean7491> but we need local initiatives and looking towards the future events
 112 <jean7491> coming back to the meeting agenda : next item dipro kortrijk 07/02 
 113 <jean7491> minimum team = 3 yanu, wamukota and me
 114 <jean7491> we still need additional volunteers, but it seems hopeless!
 115 <jean7491> nevertheless we will do it
 116 <JanC> well, 3 should work, I've done fairs with 2  ;)
 117 <JanC> but you get tired near the end then though
 118 <mongolito404> For more events: I think we should find a way to put the emphases on collaboration with existing groups. HCC invited us on their booth fr the Antwerpen Dipro (if I understand correctly). Maybe we should seek for more collaboration like this.
 119 * selckin (~selckin@unaffiliated/selckin) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 120 * selckin est parti (Excess Flood)
 121 <wamukota> JanC, don't forget the stuff we asked for Kortrijk
 122 <jean7491> likely no problem of preparation, just a few coordination with yanu (and wamukota) - btw, is it ok with cd's+posters+stickers as i asked?
 123 <JanC> wamukota: I didn't forget, are you at home tomorrow?
 124 <wamukota> I am after 17:00
 125 <jean7491> mongolito404 : i will come back later on the event in a'pen and the cooperation with hcc
 126 <jean7491> i suppose no other comment about kortrijk dipro ?
 127 <wamukota> not from me jean7491
 128 <JanC> oh, a question for the Ghent people: was there "HCC test booth" there?
 129 <wamukota> as long as you pick me up on Sunday ;-)
 130 <jean7491> wamukota : ok
 131 <JanC> mimor & co. ^^^

 135 <jean7491> "HCC test booth" ?
 136 * AndChat| (~eclips@188.188.104.105) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 137 <mimor> JanC, yes they were there
 138 <mimor> but I haven't seen people that were interested in them
 139 <mimor> no one actually knew what 'testbank' ment I guess :)
 140 <JanC> "NIEUW: alle aankopen kunnen vanaf nu gratis getest worden op de beurs bij
 141 <JanC> de HCC testbank. U kan ook meegebrachte onderdelen laten nakijken."
 142 <JanC> was in the Dipro promo mail  ☺
 143 <mimor> In between the lines, I just found this website: http://www.opengemeenten.be/
 144 <JanC> would be cool if they could test Ubuntu compatibility too  ;)
 145 <JanC> I guess we should contact HCC about that
 146 <JanC> anyway, next topic ?
 147 <jean7491> Fosdem 2010 6-7/02 
 148 <jean7491> JanC ? : something to announce ?

 161 * hfsdo (~hfsdo@unaffiliated/hfsdo) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 162 <JanC> if some of what I bought doesn't get sold during FOSDEM, we can sell it at H&C days in Antwerp and later computer fairs
 163 <JanC> and other events
 164 <wamukota> brb
 165 <JanC> now I'm thinking about what to show / and what hardware we have available
 166 <JanC> I have my EEE 900 on which I might install the netbook remix or Qimo or Lubuntu or something like that
 167 <JanC> ADcomp: what hardware will you bring?  (I know you always have something special ;) )
 168 <mimor> I'll bring the bike of fredy de kerpel again
 169 <mongolito404> I've a EEE 900 too.
 170 <mongolito404> I think it is already running UNR 9.10 (I don't really use it)
 171 <mongolito404> I've my own Laptop and I've decided if i should bring it.
 172 <ADcomp> acer aspire one ( Lucid / netbook remix ) /  dev board (arm processor) + touchscreen 4.3'' ( Karmic)
 173 <mongolito404> On the fun side, if it is of any use, I also have a Kysoh but nothing really cool to do with it. And it is not really ubuntu related.
 174 <mongolito404> Sorry, it a Kysoh Tux Droid
 175 <JanC> I have a Tux Droid too  ;)
 176 <ADcomp> nokia n770 ( Jaunty ) .. eee T91 touchscreen ( but touchscreen driver is buggy and kill X )
 177 <JanC> better not demo crashing apps  ;-)
 178 <ADcomp> yes .. :(
 179 <JanC> did you try the moblin remix on the ARM board ?
 180 <JanC> hm, apparently only available on intel
 181 * selckin (~selckin@unaffiliated/selckin) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 182 * selckin est parti (Excess Flood)
 183 <ADcomp> yes .. and it is designed for 1024x600 ..
 184 <ADcomp> not for 480x272  :)
 185 <JanC> anyway, still nice to show off something  ;)
 186 <JanC> maybe install some handheld software on it
 187 <JanC> instead of the usual stuff
 188 <ADcomp> running Openbox / mplayer / gpe-gallery / alsaplayer / fennec
 189 <JanC> like tangoGPS
 190 <JanC> I can bring a GPS mouse if the board has USB
 191 <JanC> (GPS receiver)

 202 <JanC> it works fine on my desktop
 203 <ADcomp> I have a small netbox too ..
 204 <JanC> but I suggest we all install something else on our netbooks
 205 <JanC> ADcomp: the EEE desktop thing from last year ?
 206 <ADcomp> no .. an other one ..
 207 <ADcomp> this one : (targa lidle) http://www.flickr.com/photos/ndevil/3949752129/in/photostream/
 208 <JanC> ah, does taht work well with Ubuntu ?
 209 <JanC> I didn't buy it because of the graphics chip... (SiS IIRC)
 210 <jean7491> JanC : do you plan another irc coordination meeting for fosdem ? (so we can go ahead with the agenda)
 211 <JanC> anyway, maybe everybody mail what you can bring to the mailing list  ;)
 212 <JanC> jean7491: going ahead is okay
 213 <JanC> I think I have some idea of what will be available  ☺
 214 <jean7491> next item Antwerp, hobby & computerdagen (20/02/2010 – 21/02/2010)
 215 <jean7491> in cooperation with hcc regio vlaanderen
 216 <jean7491> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/ComputerFairs/Antwerp_2010-02-20_21
 217 <jean7491> nero_ : do you have something to say ?
 218 <jean7491> we still need additional volunteers
 219 <JanC> I might go there on Saturday (or maybe Sunday), but not 2 days
 220 <nero_> are there some volunteers from regio Antwerp?
 221 <nero_> I'll be there 2 days I guess
 222 <jean7491> there is a very limited response to the calls i launched, let's hope at least 2 volunteers per day will appear
 223 <jean7491> ward will certainly come 20/02
 224 <nero_> who's ward?
 225 <jean7491> Jan Bongaerts 1 day sat. or sun.
 226 <jean7491> ward de ridder, see wiki
 227 <jean7491> i'll contact jan b. about which day he comes
 228 <nero_> K
 229 <JanC> nero_: the "HCC testbank" at dipro fairs, is that your HCC group ?
 230 <nero_> If JanC could help on Saturday and Jan B on Sunday
 231 <nero_> HCC testbank is a Dutch group afaik
 232 <JanC> I'll ask the dipro people  ☺
 233 * selckin (~selckin@unaffiliated/selckin) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 234 <JanC> okay, next topic I suppose?
 235 <jean7491> nero_ please contact me for material, if necessary
 236 <jean7491> next dipro fair brugge 28/02
 237 <jean7491> see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/ComputerFairs/Brugge_2010-02-28
 238 <jean7491> preparation will start in the next days
 239 <jean7491> next topic 2 - Promotion material 
 240 <jean7491> Update of promotion material: any new idea ?
 241 <jean7491> Comment about the proposal to burn CD's for Ubuntu-be ? See last week report (in the wiki)
 242 <ADcomp> I can help for creating ISO .. if needed
 243 <jean7491> main question is who will initiate and be in charge of this project ?
 244 <wamukota> burning is not the problem, but obtaining enough blanco CD's is more difficult
 245 <JanC> the main thing to decide currently is how to finance it (both burning & pressing)
 246 <ADcomp> who talk about sponsor last meeting ?
 247 <JanC> sponsoring is one way, making people to pay is another  ☺
 248 <ADcomp> I agree ..
 249 <jean7491> sponsoring : we are sure about income, ... selling the cd's = we hope to succeed !
 250 <JanC> if we want to get pressed CDs, then a minimum amount would be needed indeed
 251 <mandel> dammed, am I late?
 252 <jean7491> any idea about cost ? 
 253 * wamukota est parti (Quit: Ex-Chat)
 254 <jean7491> and experience wit potential sponsors ?
 255 <nero_> pressed CDs is only appropriate for LTS releases imo
 256 <ADcomp> lucid is lts .. no ?
 257 <JanC> nero_: ubuntu-fr presses CDs for all releases
 258 <JanC> we could buy some of these for ubuntu-be if we want
 259 * hagar1 (~test@78-22-176-19.access.telenet.be) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 260 <JanC> if we want to sell them instead of giving away
 261 <mongolito404> Does ubuntu-nl and ubuntu-de burn CD too ?
 262 <nero_> but they have a much bigger area to serve
 263 <JanC> true  ☺
 264 <ADcomp> +1 :)
 265 <JanC> ubuntu-nl doesn't (but they might buy some from us if we make them)
 266 <JanC> ubuntu-de, I don't know, but I could ask
 267 <nero_> has there be done some quantity estimation by release in the past?
 268 <ADcomp> btw , I hate cd .. usbkey ( ubuntu / framakey ) is better but more expensive
 269 <JanC> giving away usb keys is certainly no option  ;)
 270 <jean7491> what about our experience with sponsors for 8.04lts in 2008 ?  
 271 <ADcomp> no giving away , for sure .. :P
 272 <JanC> I'm not sure we can get the same sponsor again
 273 <JanC> I would have to ask Bart
 274 <nero_> what was the cost for that release?
 275 <jean7491> no, just share experience and estimate what is possible
 276 <ADcomp> http://www.enventelibre.org/produit/framakey-ubuntu-fr-remix
 277 <ADcomp> maybe we can do the same ..
 278 * AndChat| est parti (Quit: Bye)
 279 <JanC> it's an idea...
 280 <siegie> nero_: i can try to find the price for the hardy cd's in the ubuntu-nl wiki pages, one moment please
 281 <JanC> it's on the wiki?
 282 <siegie> JanC: the closed part of the wiki i think
 283 <siegie> found it €475 for 1000 cd's
 284 <JanC> so, that's < 50 cent for a CD
 285 <JanC> siegie: was that including something to put them in?
 286 <JanC> (I don't remember how they were :P )
 287 <siegie> There was a plastic sleeve arround them,
 288 <JanC> ah, right
 289 <jean7491> and some sponsors logo's on the cd 
 290 <jean7491> but i never saw it
 291 * hagar1 (~test@78-22-176-19.access.telenet.be) a quitté #ubuntu-be
 292 <JanC> somebody was also going to ask for prices in Morocco  ;)
 293 <JanC> nightrid3r
 294 <JanC> but I'm not sure that's a good solution (transport/time etc.)
 295 <mongolito404> And legally we will have to pay taxes and custom fee.
 296 <JanC> unless it's half the price or such  :-)
 297 <JanC> mongolito404: his company does a lot of business with & in morocco apparently, so I guess he would know how much it would cost
 298 <jean7491> i propose to continue at the next meeting, with more information on cost and sponsors (from bart and other sources)
 299 <JanC> they heave trucks driving to & from there regularly etc.
 300 <JanC> have
 301 <mongolito404> ok
 302 <JanC> but we would need some guarantee fro mhim still  ☺
 303 <jean7491> we continue next week ?
 304 <JanC> ok
 305 <jean7491> topic 3 support points map status
 306 <jean7491> mongolito404 ?
 307 <mongolito404> I've something ready to test (not map, just list)
 308 <siegie> JanC: in marocco there no €0,12 auvibel tax?
 309 <mongolito404> Now I need an host where to host a test site PHP 5.2+
 310 <mongolito404> Testers to test the stuff I install there
 311 <mongolito404> Some time to actually install it
 312 <jean7491> can someone help mongolito404 ?
 313 <mandel> I can let you a server, if that is ok ;)
 314 <JanC> you can't test on the ubuntu server?
 315 <mandel> but is a centos one and is used for something else
 316 <JanC> ubuntu-be server I mean?
 317 <mongolito404> I need an host and I don't have time to do any sysadmin task but I'll ask for some tools I'm used to use. IE. Nothinf fancy.
 318 <mongolito404> recent bzr and rsync
 319 <mongolito404> and PHP as cli
 320 <mongolito404> JanC: It is always long to have something on Ubuntu-be.org server. Cedric is always busy. I don't blame him.
 321 <mandel> I can get you bzr etc and try to set up a nice env for you
 322 <mongolito404> And I can't take the responsability to be root and install stuff by myself
 323 <mandel> but again, you have to deal with rpm etc..
 324 <mongolito404> As I said, I don't have time to do sysadmin stuff.
 325 <mongolito404> And certainly not to learn rpm-fu while I used to deb-fu (on Ubuntu)
 326 * XiaoShiZi est parti (Quit: Ik ga weg)
 327 <selckin> can give you a small vps if its just testing stuff
 328 <mandel> well, I can give you a hand with the sysadmin, that is nto a problem
 329 <mongolito404> I can "aptitude install" stuff and edit lighttpd/apache2 configuration cleanly (ie. in a separate file in /etc/apache2/site-available for instance).
 330 <mandel> I can offer server and sysadmin thingy, that's is all :P
 331 <JanC> maybe selckin's VPS is easiest then?
 332 <mongolito404> Yes
 333 <jean7491> mongolito404 : can you continue directly with selckin and mandel ?
 334 <mongolito404> I know I sound picky but I really want to focus on the code.
 335 <mongolito404> Yes
 336 <jean7491> so we can go ahead with topic 4 – things living in the mailing list - reapproval
 337 <jean7491> the procedure for re-approval-application of our loco team is started ...
 338 <jean7491> the loco council meeting about the re-approval of our loco team is planned on 16/02 at 21.00 hr.  all members of the loco team are invited to take part to the meeting on irc #ubuntu-meeting
 339 <JanC> the reapproval page can use some additions from people who have been around longer (I will look some thing up myself and add them after FOSDEM)
 340 <JanC> 16/2 is a Tuesday BTW
 341 <mongolito404> I'll add some info about the website
 342 <jean7491> the draft is available in the wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/ReapprovalApplication2010-Draft, but indeed not complete ...
 343 <jean7491> other question to complete the draft : what were the actions of Ubuntu-be in relation with "non-profit, and inter-governmental institutions" since 2006 ?  What about schools ? 
 344 <jean7491> hoping JanC will gather info at fosdem !
 345 <jean7491> comment on this ?
 346 <ADcomp> nobody use edubuntu in belgium ?
 347 <JanC> I know some schools do (the LTSP stuff)
 348 <JanC> well, I heard soem schools do  ☺
 349 <ADcomp> maybe if we could contact them and this in the wiki ?
 350 <ADcomp> (add)
 351 <JanC> jean7491: I think one school near where you live uses Edubuntu
 352 <jean7491> ?
 353 <JanC> at the other side of the park  ☺
 354 <JanC> St-Jozef
 355 <JanC> aka VKIOB
 356 <JanC> or whatever their name is now
 357 <jean7491> i see the school, but never had contact with ! 
 358 <JanC> well, I think it's their primary school that uses it
 359 <JanC> but that's only what I heard
 360 <JanC> not sure even what school (they have several in Ostend & Bredene)
 361 <JanC> anyway, one thing we should do one day is compile a list of schoosl & companies using Ubuntu  ☺
 362 <mongolito404> Is ubuntu-be involved in the use of ubuntu at that school. Otherwise, this seems unfair to present it as an achievement.
 363 <JanC> mongolito404: it shouldn't be listed on that page
 364 <JanC> we should compile a separate list for that  ;)
 365 <mongolito404> ok
 366 <jean7491> i'm just wondering what ubuntu-be did, not the rest were we are not involved in 
 367 <jean7491> i propose next item : last week suggestion of a monthly report (following the rule in the wiki)
 368 <mongolito404> I'm totally for it.
 369 <mimor> 1+
 370 <mongolito404> If we start to do it, I'll report my work on the wiki myself.
 371 <JanC> it wil make reapproval in 2 years from now much easier  ;)
 372 <JanC> and it can be short, just pointing to longer reports if useful
 373 * Guest75089 est parti (Quit: Ex-Chat)
 374 <jean7491> two advantages : regularly summary of ubuntu-be life, and our activities will be better known by ubuntu community, but ...
 375 <JanC> more work  ;-)
 376 <jean7491> the problem, who will do it ?
 377 <jean7491> is there a volunteer ?
 378 <jean7491> no problem if there are more than 1 volunteer !
 379 <mongolito404> A volunteer for what ? Basic maintenance of the wiki pages I guess.
 380 <ADcomp> I like to involve more in ubuntu-be .. but my english is crappy ( no comment on my dutch ) .. So not so easy
 381 <mongolito404> Maintenance of the page does not invovle much writing
 382 <ADcomp> ( btw , you do a amazing job jean7491  )
 383 <mongolito404> It looks more like repeating copy/pasting every month
 384 <mongolito404> And probably wiki markup cleanup
 385 <mongolito404> A motivated person with some spare time could probably automated half the work
 386 <jean7491> you know https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TeamReports ?
 387 <jean7491> and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BuildingCommunity/TeamReporting/HowTo ?
 388 <mongolito404> Yes
 389 <mongolito404> And I'm comfortable with wiki markup
 390 <ADcomp> not sure it's so easy to automate ..
 391 <mongolito404> The truth is I'm too lazy and I forget to easily to commit to doing this each month.
 392 <jean7491> and not everything (about event or action) is in the wiki ...
 393 <mongolito404> The idea is not the ave a single person responsible of reporting everything in the wiki.
 394 <mongolito404> Anyone can and should edit the report.
 395 <JanC> uhu, and maybe a monthly reminder...?
 396 <JanC> to the ML I mean
 397 <mongolito404> IMHO, the maintainer job is to clean it, create/updae the pages each month and bug people (on the ML, here, be mail, etc.) every month.
 398 <ADcomp> Don't know if I'm the good one but maybe I can try do help on this ..
 399 <mongolito404> And make everyone feel responsible of the report so that when something in the ML should be added, there is always someone to do it. And not always the same person doing all the edit.
 400 <mongolito404> ADcomp: you don't know if you do it well until you try
 401 <ADcomp> usually I 'm not a this part .. but I really want to do more ..
 402 <ADcomp> I'm more confortable with hardware and python' code ;)
 403 <mongolito404> This is the case for most of us.
 404 <mongolito404> :D
 405 <mongolito404> That's why they call us 'nerds' :p
 406 * t00r (~t00r@unaffiliated/t00r) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 407 <ADcomp> can we talk about this at Fosdem ?
 408 <jean7491> ADcomp : perhaps during the fosdem you will be convinced to try this task !
 409 <mongolito404> :D
 410 <jean7491> and we are now at the last topic - next meeting on 10/02/2010 at 21 h. ?
 411 <mimor> agreed
 412 <mongolito404> I'll try to be there, at least for updates on the map.
 413 <ADcomp> ok
 414 <mimor> I have mobile internet on my phone now... so I can be here on any time :D
 415 <jean7491> thanks to all for your participation ! see you next week ! have a good night !
 416 <mimor> Good night!
 417 <mongolito404> selckin, mandel: Thank you for the server offers. I should mail you tomorrow.
