  55 <jean7491> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/ComputerFairs/Antwerp_2010-09-12
  56 <jean7491>  second item,  Software Freedom Day (18/9) 
  57 <jean7491> basic information is here http://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/FrontPage 
  58 <jean7491> an information session is already planned in ostend in cooperation with local zandletters association
  59 <jean7491> are there other planned activities ? i don't know
  60 <jean7491> no comment ?
  61 <massimo21> no comment
  62 <jean7491>  third item,  Nielse computer dag (26/9) in cooperation with local computerclub monitor …
  63 <jean7491>  we need to compose team for this event
  64 <nero_> since it is not so far from my home i can be there
  65 <jean7491> nero_ did you receive my email about this event ? can you take the lead ?
  66 <nero_> didn't see any mail
  67 <nero_> who should i contact for the boot and so on?
  68 <jean7491> ok i will send it again
  69 <jean7491> mail is sent
  70 <jean7491> next topic promotion
  71 <jean7491>  2. Promotion
  72 <jean7491> first item Adding commercial links to the website
  73 <jean7491>  we already discussed the topic, see draft in the wiki
  74 <jean7491> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/Website/Commercial_links-draft …
  75 <jean7491> before to launch the project and contacting companies, we need a central point of contact (email address) for this matter
  76 <jean7491> i'm waiting JanC for the activation of an address like contact@ubuntu-be.org 
  77 <jean7491> for contact between commercial companies and ubuntu-be
  78 <massimo21> who will adminstrate the mails?
  79 <jean7491> waiting action from JanC, and then i will mail the procedure and rules in the mailing list
  80 <jean7491> idea is that the application are treated by interested members of ubuntu-be: just a question of internal coordination
  81 <jean7491> 1 point of entry, and several interested members having access/receiving mails and coordinating internally before answering
  82 <Clamam> what type of companies can we contact ?
  83 <jean7491> have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/Website/Commercial_links-draft …
  84 <massimo21> But doesn't the ones that administrate the mails have the capability to insert the logo (link) on the webpage?
  85 <jean7491> condition is a clear link with ubuntu : it can be supply, hardware, service, education, course, ...
  86 <jean7491> once application agreed, it is up to website admin to implement the insertion of the links on the right page
  87 <massimo21> I understand now
  88 <massimo21> seems fair
  89 * JanC est parti (Ping timeout: 265 seconds)
  90 <jean7491> additionally we have an Ubuntu-be.org Web Editors which can work as website admin
  91 * JanC (~janc@lugwv/member/JanC) a rejoint #ubuntu-be
  92 <jean7491> other comment ? JanC ?
  93 <jean7491> if no comment, second item,  t-shirts for Ubuntu-be ? 
  94 <jean7491> we are waiting for other design proposals 
  95 <jean7491> see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/PromotionMaterial 
  96 <jean7491> feel free to propose other designs
  97 <Gh0sty> brr black :p
  98 <jean7491> i hope we progress next month(s)
  99 <massimo21> The propsed desings dosn't look bad
 100 <massimo21> i like v4
 101 <Clamam> the designs are good especialy design V4-be
 102 <jean7491> ok, as i said, i hope more comment/progress next month
 103 <jean7491> next topic  3. Update Wiki
 104 <jean7491>  the part “How to contact Ubuntu-be Team ?” on the BelgianTeam home page needs to be updated, as not all the channels are used ..
 105 <Clamam> Facebook !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 106 <Clamam> it's the first question that Eurosys from Hasselt asked me...........
 107 <jean7491> in fact we use : IRC #ubuntu-be and mailing list, and limited use : micro-blogging - identi.ca (!ubuntube)
 108 <jean7491>  Not in use : Social networks (Facebook and Orkut) and Twitter (Ubuntu-be Twibe) 
 109 <Clamam> Why are we not on facebook, a lot of people use it.
 110 <massimo21> Linux.start.be
 111 <Clamam> i think it's simple to start it up, what do you think
 112 <massimo21> i think i's a good idea (ubuntu on facebook°
 113 <jean7491> i never used facebook, and i'm not motivated to use it, ...
 114 <nero_> neither do i
 115 <massimo21> But it's for enlarge the channels that brings people to ubuntu
 116 <Clamam> Most of the people i know are using it, maybe i can look in to it for making a page or something like that
 117 <jean7491> i heard a lot of negative reactions, but the question can be raised in the mailing list
 118 <jean7491> my point was to update the wiki and delete the part we don't use now (Facebook and Orkut) and Twitter )
 119 <jean7491> to avoid wrong information in the wiki ...
 120 <Clamam> ok
 121 <massimo21> Ubuntu.com have a page on facebook
 122 <massimo21> Don't get why not ubuntu.be
 123 <jean7491> no idea about the content of ubuntu.com page on facebook, i suggest to mention it in the report, and up to you to continue in the mailing list
 124 <Clamam> i can do a request on the mailing to see how many are for or against it.
 125 <massimo21> ok
 126 <jean7491> ok, better do it after the report of the meeting is sent
 127 <Clamam> ok
 128 <jean7491> another point is that ubuntu-be needs  email address(es) for direct contact (general and events) and support points with the Belgian Team 
 129 <jean7491> people trying to contact certainly don't like mailing to an unpersonal mailing list
 130 <jean7491> to contact ubuntu-be.org ...
 131 <jean7491> idem as for contact about commercial links
 132 <jean7491> if no comment, next topic
 133 <massimo21> so you need more e-mails to administrate the different tasks
 134 <jean7491> idd
 135 * rulus est parti (Quit: leaving)
 136 <jean7491> perhaps 1 for contact (in general), and if the trafic is too heavy, other email addresses
 137 <massimo21> one appart for the events
 138 <jean7491> i only speak about contacts from outside ubuntu-be and addressed to ubuntu-be.org (in fact  a few active members)
 139 <massimo21> ore else the mails needs to be redirected (naargelang) the topic
 140 <massimo21> oh
 141 <massimo21> one will be ok
 142 <jean7491> and we can see later if more is needed
 143 <massimo21> yes
 144 <jean7491> the contact address for commercial links could be used (when activated) - 1. action from JanC, 2. who is interested taking part to this "leading" group?
 145 <massimo21> what will be the tasks?
 146 <massimo21> of the leadin group
 147 <jean7491> answering the questions after coordinating internally
 148 <massimo21> I can
 149 <jean7491> ok, i take note
 150 <jean7491> other comment ?
 151 <jean7491> next topic 4. Support points map status : nothing new, we are waiting for mongolito404 availability
 152 <jean7491> other topic to discuss ?
 153 <jean7491> if not,  last topic, ... next irc meeting ? proposed on 25/08 at 21 h. (we can always change day and hour if requested)
 154 <massimo21> ok
