   3 <jean7491> Hi to all, who is here for the meeting ?Hello XiaoShiZi, nero_
   4 <nero_> check
   5 <ramtar> Hi everybody
   6 <JanC> o/
   7 <jean7491> hello ramtar , JanC
   8 <ramtar> hi
   9 <mongolito404> Hi
  10 <mimor> jup I am
  11 <jean7491> hello mongolito404 and mimor
  12 <JanC> mongolito404: did you see http://blog.canonical.com/?p=330 ?
  13 <mongolito404> JanC: yes
  14 <mongolito404> And I discussed it in #ubuntu-drupal
  15 * pvandewyngaerde (~id984031@90.232-245-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
  16 <pvandewyngaerde> hi
  17 <mongolito404> Stuart Metcalfe is the main dev. for the Drupal Launchpad integration (based on OpenID).
  18 <mimor> JanC, will it be bound to the launchpad too?
  19 <JanC> mimor: read that blog article  ;)
  20 <mongolito404> It seems that Canonical has paying client using it, so it is very likely that whatever Canonical plans are for LP/Ubuntu-sso it will be supported in the module.
  21 <mimor> JanC, as I understand it they migrate the exisiting launchpad accounts to the ubuntu slo
  22 <mimor> but not the other way
  23 <mongolito404> mimor: My understanding is that LP and Ubuntu-sso will coexists as OpenID provider for a certain period.
  24 <jean7491> i suggest we start within a few minutes with a change in the agenda : first the topic "support map update", and after that the "future events"
  25 <mongolito404> But at the end, Ubuntu-sso will replace LP as a OpenID provider and LP will use OpenID (or only Ubuntu-sso) for authentication.
  26 <mimor> ok
  27 <mimor> that's what I was wondering
  28 <mimor> otherwise 'new' users would have to create a seperate login for launchpad to use apport
  29 <jean7491> hello pvandewyngaerde
  30 <mongolito404> Shall we start the meeting ?
  31 <jean7491> let's start now with the topic "support map" ...
  32 <jean7491> mongolito404 ?
  33 <jean7491> i've no info
  34 <mongolito404> I finally took the time tu pot something online for all to see and test. it is available http://ubuntu.gwickt.com/drupal6/
  35 <pvandewyngaerde> s/tu pot/to put
  36 <mongolito404> thx
  37 <LarsB> +1
  38 <mongolito404> Everybody is invited to register there to test it.
  39 <mongolito404> I'm already aware of one issue: you can't use the contact form when your are not logged. And there is a potential solution for this (http://drupal.org/project/contact/).
  40 <JanC> yeah, we can't request that people register first
  41 <mongolito404> Right, I assumed Drupal 'core' would let the form be used by non-registred visitor but I didn't check until today.
  42 <mongolito404> But it's ok since there is a module (in dev, but already available) for it.
  43 <mongolito404> (fixed)
  44 <ramtar> wich module it is?
  45 <mongolito404> ramtar: which module is what ?
  46 <ramtar> the module in dev?
  47 <mongolito404> http://drupal.org/project/contact/
  48 <mongolito404> The good news is: the code is wokring (or seems to be) and can be tested. The bad news is: no map, only a list
  49 <ramtar> it is possible to use the gmap module with the list?
  50 <mongolito404> The next step is to get as many test (and bug report) from the community during my vacation (I'll be away) so I can finish finish and release version 0.1 during March
  51 <mongolito404> ramtar: Probably. But I believe the OpenLayers module is the ''way of the future'' for mapping in Drupal.
  52 <JanC> that can use both google maps or open streetmap IIRC?
  53 <mongolito404> ramtar: But if you have time to experiment, please do. Any feedback of what works and how it can be made is a step in the right direction.
  54 <mongolito404> The code is open source and actually pretty short (see https://launchpad.net/support.points.map) so anybody can contribute, all patch are welcome.
  55 <JanC> the code for the module is at https://code.launchpad.net/support.points.map BTW
  56 <JanC> right  ☺
  57 <ramtar> Thanks I will see that
  58 <mongolito404> Translations are ongoing by the magic of Launchpad (see https://translations.launchpad.net/support.points.map)
  59 <mongolito404> Translations are automatically extracted from and pushed into the code repository by Launchpad.
  60 <mongolito404> So thing are going on, slowly but, imho, in the right direction.
  61 <jean7491> ok, anything to add ?
  62 <mongolito404> I don't
  63 <jean7491> now test period for this project ... thx mongolito404

 142 <nero_> fair starts ap 10:00 for public

 165 <nero_> ??
 166 <JanC> j/k = just kidding, I know there is no 10 Gbit fiber to the core of the Belgian internet at Antwerp Expo  ;)
 167 <nero_> lol
 168 * pvandewyngaerde est parti (Ping timeout: 252 seconds)
 169 * siegie (~quassel@unaffiliated/siegie) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 170 <JanC> they did have that at FOSDEM, after testing this year, next year they will stream all the main talks live next year
 171 <nero_> FOSDEM was at the university, a pioneer of internet in Belgium
 172 <yva> JanC> so that you don't miss the HTML5 conf ;)
 173 <jean7491> if nothing else for a'pen, next item ? (hi siegie , JanC will bring material for you in a'pen)
 174 <JanC> siegie will be there on Sat too right?
 175 <siegie> okey, i've read the mail
 176 <siegie> JanC: yes I'll be there satterday,
 177 <JanC> okay, that makes it easy
 178 <jean7491> next item : dipro brugge 28/02 
 179 <jean7491> for now, only 3 volunteers in the team (wiki) : this is likely enough for such a fair, but additional (new) volunteers are still welcome !
 180 <jean7491> wiki : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/ComputerFairs/Brugge_2010-02-28
 181 <jean7491> JanC anything else for dipro brugge ?
 182 <JanC> certainly, new volunteers can get experience for when some of the regulars can't help
 183 <JanC> and more volunteers = more time for the others to get a little rest, get some food/drink & walk around the fair
 184 <jean7491> indeed, but i had no reaction of support points of the region, if you have other contacts ?
 185 * Carroarmato0 (~Carroarma@188.188.104.66) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 186 <JanC> not that I know of right now
 187 <jean7491> ok, next item : dipro charleroi 07/03
 188 <JanC> I guess Cédric will take care of that?
 189 <jean7491> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/ComputerFairs/Charleroi_2010-03-07
 190 <jean7491> ramtar , I understood you are in charge of this event ? Something to add for now ?
 191 <ramtar> Yes
 192 * pvandewyngaerde (~id984031@90.232-245-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be) a rejoint #ubuntu-be

 201 <ramtar> I think we will about 5 or 6 people for this event or maybe more
 202 <ramtar> and i contact two other volunteer
 203 <JanC> that should be enough
 204 <ramtar> and for material I have to see Cedric for promotional stuff and for computer I have my notebook, a Desktop with 22 inch screen, and Lug gonna take PC
 205 <ramtar> I have done 3 Dipro (2 Charleroi and 1 Liege) I think it will be ok for my first Dipro organised by myself :)
 206 <jean7491> ok, we always have to start organizing ! we will see with cedric about posters, did you checked the available promo material (files) available in the wiki ?
 207 <JanC> hm, Dipro doesn't do the fair in Liège anymore because the expo hall was too expensive
 208 <ramtar> I know...
 209 <ramtar> for the moment there is juste Dipro in Charleroi
 210 <ramtar> i don't see dipro in Namur this year :S
 211 <JanC> if anybody knows not-too-expensive expo halls in Wallonia, please tell dipro  ;-)
 212 <JanC> they told me they actually want to do more fairs
 213 <ramtar> I remember it
 214 <ramtar> :)
 215 <JanC> maybe told you too in Charleroi last time
 216 <JanC> maybe Frenhc posters can be got/bought from ubuntu-fr too...
 217 <JanC> French
 218 <ramtar> I will see, culbutte told me they have took poster in FOSDEM for the Dipro
 219 <JanC> that was probably a Dutch language one then?  or maybe just a linux penguin poster?
 220 <JanC> penguins are always nice to attract the kids  ;-)
 221 <ramtar> yes
 222 <ramtar> I have noticed one thing for the dipro
 223 <ramtar> the wallpaper are very important
 224 <ramtar> last time i took a strange wallpaper and a lot of people to see what is it
 225 <ramtar> and then i get the occasion to speak to people :)
 226 <jean7491> anything else for now ?
 227 <yva> jean7491> just take the opportunity to introduce myself at some point ;)
 228 <jean7491> go on 
 229 <ramtar> yes
 230 <ramtar> It's the first time i speak on an Ubuntu irc meeting
 231 <ramtar> but i have a subject to introduce
 232 <ramtar> when i have to do it?

 234 <yva> Oh, I'm a ubuntu user since 2 years now. I met some of you at FOSDEM this year. working in LLN and living in liège and available to help (when possible) for fair or install parties
 235 <JanC> it's okay to talk about it here first ramtar
 236 <yva> (but don't know the name of the persons I met at FOSDEM)
 237 <JanC> yva: maybe you can help ramtar in Charleroi  ☺
 238 <JanC> yva: I was at the booth, but not all the time, so depends when you was at the booth  ☺
 239 <ramtar> yes :)
 240 <ramtar> for my subject i introduce it quickly
 241 <yva> JanC depends on how you look like ;) tall and speaking deutch?
 242 <jean7491> ramtar : new subject not related with agenda, if possible after the other points on the agenda or suggestion for next week
 243 <ramtar> ok no matter, notice me after the end to speak about it
 244 <yva> ramtar> I might be available, I have to check first but 'll recontact you if it's possible
 245 <ramtar> okay
 246 <yva> ramtar> where do you live/how do you go there?
 247 <JanC> yva: I have long hair and wore an "ubuntu guru" t-shirt and spoke Dutch & English
 248 <jean7491> ramtar : send your email address to yva via pm
 249 <yva> JanC so it was probably you ;)

 251 <ramtar> yva > i live in Charleroi and i am three street far from the Dipro
 252 <yva> ramtar> ok
 253 <JanC> jean7491: next item?
 254 <jean7491> thx yva and ramtar, next item digital week 06-12/03
 255 <jean7491> we have a suggestion for 07/03 in bree, i've a contact with another jan who could be help there, i'm waiting news from him
 256 <jean7491> another event in this digital week is in ostend
 257 * pvandewyngaerde1 (~id984031@90.232-245-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 258 <jean7491> as i already told on 11/02 ubuntu-be will be present in ostend with a booth (forum-room bibliotheek Kris Lambert)
 259 <jean7491> http://zandletters.be/spip.php?article150
 260 <jean7491> additional volunteers are welcome (at 12-13 hr  and 19-20 hr.) on 11/03
 261 * Carroarmato0 est parti (Quit: Sto andando via)
 262 <jean7491> see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/DigitalWeek-Ostend_2010-03-11
 263 <jean7491> i'm hoping for local help , wait and see
 264 * pvandewyngaerde est parti (Ping timeout: 272 seconds)
 265 <jean7491> we will speak next week about dipro mechelen and oostmalle
 266 <jean7491> anything else about events ?
 267 <jean7491> i mean future events 
 268 <jean7491> if not, topic 2 - Promotion material 
 269 <jean7491> Comment about the proposal to burn CD's for Ubuntu-be ? See last week reports (in the wiki)
 270 <jean7491> we are looking for volunteers to lead this project and to investigate the possibilities, including prices-offers : are there volunteers ? 
 271 <jean7491> if no volunteers, comments ?
 272 <jean7491> if no comment, we skip it ?
 273 <JanC> yep, next item
 274 <jean7491> as we already spoke about support map topic 4 – things living in the mailing list 
 275 <jean7491> first item : as already mentioned earlier,  we should find new ways/events to promote ubuntu: all suggestions are welcome, like open-doors organized by schools, hobby fairs locally organized by associations or cities, and more recently and open ict day
 276 <yva> jean7491> install parties?
 277 <ramtar> I have a new type/way
 278 * Enissay (~Enissay@unaffiliated/enissay) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 279 <yva> (that's always what frighten the most people)
 280 <ramtar> game
 281 <ramtar> :)
 282 <ramtar> Gnu/Lan Party
 283 <JanC> install partities are useful for people wanting to use Ubuntu
 284 <ramtar> that's what i would like to organise for my event
 285 <JanC> but first people need to learn about Ubuntu  ;)
 286 <JanC> so we need both
 287 <JanC> ramtar: if you can find a public, please do
 288 <jean7491> local initiative is the key of success : everybody can look for contact and propose activities, then the events team can investigate the possibilities for execution
 289 <yva> JanC> yep sure but are a lot of parties already organised?
 290 <JanC> yva: not a lot, mostly by computer clubs & LUGs
 291 <yva> JanC> That's what I thought and honestly that's the hardest step (imho)
 292 <yva> (given the "risks" for your laptop)
 293 <JanC> ramtar: maybe you want to talk to Matthew from Ostend too, as he organises LAN parties IIRC
 294 <JanC> not open source LAN parties, but he should have the hardware needed for a LAN party  ;)
 295 <ramtar> no matter for hardware
 296 <JanC> and maybe contacts
 297 <ramtar> in my school we have a special local where we made Lan Party
 298 <JanC> 24 port gigabit switches and stuff like that  ;)
 299 <ramtar> yes :)
 300 * JanC is not a gamer
 301 <JanC> but please propose it on the list
 302 <ramtar> but i think it's a good idea to contact him
 303 <jean7491> risk for own material : for this reason we are try to constitute event boxes 
 304 * pvandewyngaerde (~id984031@90.232-245-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 305 <ramtar> if the Gnu/Lan party is a success we can made other event in Belgium with Matthew
 306 <jean7491> about matthew, as he start a stage in uk, he wil not be available for months !
 307 <JanC> well, he might be available for input
 308 <ramtar> I gonna contact other of my friends. But when he come back Belgium i will contact him
 309 <pvandewyngaerde> stage  ?? internship ?
 310 <JanC> internship yes
 311 <jean7491> the main problem is to find some who say " i'll do it" , then we can support initiatives as much as we can
 312 <JanC> so if ramtar organises it, we say: "go!"
 313 <JanC> ☺
 314 <ramtar> i'll do it :)
 315 <ramtar> I think we have to take other way to promote Ubuntu
 316 <JanC> more ways is always better
 317 <ramtar> a lot of people are interested to manipulate photo or video
 318 * pvandewyngaerde1 est parti (Ping timeout: 272 seconds)
 319 <ramtar> i think make activities to teach people how to do something like that is goof
 320 <ramtar> good*
 321 * yva est parti (Quit: Ex-Chat)
 322 <ramtar> for an example in my school I made a special activities with GIMP
 323 <ramtar> and a lot of people come to this activity
 324 <JanC> we are also asked by the people from LGM 2010 (Libre Graphics Meeting)
 325 <JanC> it's in Brussels this year, and the day before the conference they want to do workshops for graphics students
 326 <JanC> they asked us to give an introduction to linux/Ubuntu, and after that they will give workshops about the open source graphics software
 327 <ramtar> It's good
 328 <JanC> (they run an all-open-source design agency in Brussels)
 329 <ramtar> pretty good :)
 330 <JanC> and won the biggest book design price in Belgium last year  ;)
 331 <ramtar> actually they are a lot of powerful programs for graphics
 332 <ramtar> like Gimp, Blender :]
 333 <JanC> yeah, the developers of all those applications will be in Brussels for LGM !
 334 <JanC> http://www.libregraphicsmeeting.org/2010/
 335 <JanC> it's at the end of May
 336 <ramtar> :)
 337 <jean7491> ok, i will add about lgm in the meeting report
 338 <JanC> I need some more info from them, then I'll ask for volunteers for the Ubuntu session on Wednesday
 339 <ramtar> i will add it in agendadulibre.be
 340 <ramtar> about agendadulibre.be I made agendadulibre.be with a friend from the lug laclic and we would like to make an NL and EN version and we need volunteers to work on a NL version
 341 <ramtar> we gonna work on the interface to make traduction easier
 342 <jean7491> ramtar : as you said " i'll do it " please send us later details about your project - as i already said, all suggestions are welcome, and rather with someone taking the initiative
 343 <ramtar> ok i will send email to ubuntu list tomorow :)
 344 <JanC> cool
 345 <jean7491> ok, i suggest we go to the next item - reapproval
 346 <JanC> any other things on or off the agenda that need to be discussed?
 347 <jean7491> about the procedure for re-approval-application : the loco council has review yesterday our re-approval application, but did not yet vote due to not enough loco council members in the meeting. Vote will occur offline but no doubt on the result. 
 348 <JanC> yeh, should be no problem
 349 <jean7491> my last item is the suggestion of a monthly report : we are still looking for a volunteer !
 350 <jean7491> but i suppose we have to skip it for now !
 351 <JanC> unless somebody volunteers *now*  ;)
 352 <ramtar> i would like to help but my english is horrible (i think you see that today)
 353 <jean7491>  now it is time for other things off the agenda
 354 <jean7491> ramtar ?
 355 <ramtar> yes?
 356 <JanC> maybe the LAN party was his proposal?
 357 <ramtar> yes
 358 <ramtar> in fact it's a part of the event
 359 <jean7491> something to add ?
 360 <ramtar> I would like to organise an event in my school in ecaussinnes
 361 <ramtar> but a big event with more than juste intall party
 362 <ramtar> i have the approval from my school
 363 <ramtar> and i wil have about three or four local
 364 <ramtar> with projector
 365 <ramtar> and one special for lan party
 366 <ramtar> and i would like to do an Ubuntu Day special for wallonnie
 367 <JanC> make sure everything works perfectly before  ☺
 368 <ramtar> Cause Ecaussinnes is near Charleroi, Mons, La Louvière, Bruxelles is not too far
 369 <ramtar> So it a good place
 370 <JanC> you'd do it as a sort of a release party?
 371 <ramtar> yes for the 10.04
 372 <JanC> cool
 373 <ramtar> and i would like to do special day with Install Party Gnu Lan Party and conference
 374 <ramtar> I have some contact for conference
 375 <JanC> you mean some talks in French?
 376 <ramtar> I think for an example of Aurélien Paulus who is a friend and who made the conference "Libre ce Soir"
 377 <JanC> for end-users, or?
 378 <ramtar> and of course made the excellent brochure discover Ubuntu
 379 <ramtar> for all people, for Linuxian and for people who want to discover Ubuntu
 380 * pvandewyngaerde (~id984031@90.232-245-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be) a quitté #ubuntu-be
 381 <JanC> yeah, well, I mean, talks that can be understood by non-linuxians  ;)
 382 <ramtar> yes of course
 383 <ramtar> Aurélien is very good to do that
 384 <JanC> nice
 385 <XiaoShiZi> http://www.aurelienpaulus.net/decouvrez-ubuntu/
 386 <ramtar> I think it's also a good way to show that there is LUG too to help people
 387 <JanC> there aren't many LUG in Flanders  ;)
 388 <ramtar> Oh i think there are a lot of LUG in Flanders
 389 <JanC> but some computer clubs have a linux chapter
 390 <ramtar> okay
 391 <JanC> ramtar: I mean LUGs that are alive  ;)
 392 <ramtar> :)
 393 <ramtar> That's the big problem of the lug
 394 <JanC> lugwv & lugov haven't had a meeting in years
 395 <JanC> fortunately there is linuxbabbel in West-Vlaanderen now
 396 <ramtar> cool :)
 397 <JanC> which refuses to be called a LUG
 398 <ramtar> :S
 399 <JanC> most LUGs have/had a rather hardcore reputation
 400 <JanC> not always very newbie-friendly
 401 <ramtar> that's the big problem of the Lug
 402 <ramtar> and I think a good think to do it's to try to work with lug
 403 <ramtar> to make lug user friendly :p
 404 <ramtar> for an example the project kot LLnux
 405 <JanC> some LUGWV people now attend linuxbabbel meetings, so the knowledge is now used there
 406 <ramtar> don't want to have linuxian who is too technical linuxian.
 407 <ramtar> I think a good think is to invite lug to have more women in LUG
 408 <ramtar> i think is a big problem
 409 <ramtar> we have this image of the linuxian with big glasses
 410 <JanC> ☺
 411 <JanC> there is 1 woman who attends linuxbabbel regularly
 412 <ramtar> I read an article about woman in open source project
 413 * XiaoShiZi est parti (Quit: Ik ga weg)
 414 <ramtar> they talk about to suggest to invite woman to participate to the organisation for example
 415 <JanC> I've read several (as a member of ubuntu-women, I have to ;) )
 416 <ramtar> :)
 417 <JanC> and LGM 2010 is organised by a woman (well, a team really, but she does a lot of the work) !
 418 <JanC> the BXLUG chair is a woman too
 419 <JanC> so, it's not always that bad
 420 * ramtar est parti (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
 421 * ramtar (~ramtar@host-213-213-231-233.brutele.be) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
 422 <jean7491> ramtar, about your Ubuntu Day project, perhaps you could with writing a summary how you see it and mail it (starting with JanC and me, and who is interested ?)
 423 <ramtar> okay
 424 <ramtar> it will be a pleasure :)
 425 <jean7491> other question for this evening ?
 426 <ramtar> for me it's okay
 427 <ramtar> :)
 428 <jean7491> if not, last topic - next meeting on 24/02/2010 at 21 h. 
 429 <ramtar> sorry in advance if i cant come but I am at school the evening
 430 <jean7491> thanks for your participation, see you next week ! and we can close the today's meeting !
 431 <jean7491> ok ramtar
 432 <ramtar> thanks and see you ;)
 433 * ramtar est parti (Quit: Quitte)
 434 <JanC> well, if people want to attend & another day of the week is preferred, that can be discussed too...
