38 Please look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/PromotionMaterial/ProposalsFlyers2011 and add your proposals/comments in the mailing list and in the wiki page. It is important that you express your meaning regarding stuff like this. Deadline for the project: 01 June 2011.
39
40 - Rollups to improve our booths: which design? First proposals are in the wiki page:
41 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/PromotionMaterial/ProposalsRollup2011
42 Feel free to add proposals/designs/comments in the mailing list and wiki: which design? international? (better for FOSDEM), national? (can be use everywhere in Belgium), 1 language? (regional use or contact with other LoCo teams?)
43 Suggested deadline for a good design: 01 April 2011.
44 If we find sponsors, a (small) place in the picture could be dedicaced to sponsors.
45 A question about availability of rollups and other promotion material from Canonical (free or cheap) is sent the LoCo-teams Council agenda for the next meeting (15/03). But such a solution will take months (8 months for Ubuntu-banner).
46
47 3. Update Wiki and Web-site
48 a. Wiki
49 - during the meeting last Tuesday (15/02), it was started with going true the whole wiki first, making a BelgianTeam/Legacy page for all the content from before 2010 (not yet with links), and an overview of what was done is added at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/2011/FebruaryWikiCleanup. Further information via the mailing list.
50
51 - A link “where to buy a laptop without MS Windows “ (to an outdated page) has been added to the home page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam (see Material). This page needs to be updated (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/OsLessLaptopShops). When updated, we might put that page inside ubuntu-be.org website.
52
53 b. Web-site
54 - A contact-form is included in the web-site, as a way to contact ubuntu-be (not for technical support), see ”contact us” on the website. Questions are forwarded to the contact-group or to the press contacts, according the category.
55 It is suggested to add the IRC channel (or chat) in the "contact-form" as a possibility to contact ubuntu-be members (in general) about various questions, coordination and organization of events.
56 Remark: the contact-group (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/Website/Commercial_links) will act as coordination-team. A task description will be worked on and added in the wiki, when agreed.
57
58 - Last week we pointed out that we need a page promoting our actions/events in the web-site. The aim is to show what we do, hoping that new volunteers will join. No proposals yet. It is suggested to promote our work/hobby on Facebook, in the wiki and web-site.
