3 [02:05] <pleia2> [TOPIC] Oneiric Release plans: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Projects/OneiricRelease
4 [02:05] <MarkDude> Use of word collaborate makes it clear WHY. Better than any suggestion I could have made
5 [02:05] <pleia2> so far there aren't any plans for the Oneiric release
6 [02:05] <philipballew> sd might have a party
7 [02:05] <pleia2> I'm going to be out of town for the actual week of the release
8 [02:06] <philipballew> so so cal should have something
9 [02:06] <pleia2> (actually giving a presentation about it in Philly, and probably going to their release party ;))
10 [02:06] <MarkDude> DarkwingDuck: ping
11 [02:06] <pleia2> philipballew: cool :)
12 [02:07] <pleia2> I'll drop a mail to the list reminding people it's coming up soon
13 [02:07] <philipballew> pleia2, about how long after do cd's come?
14 [02:07] <pleia2> philipballew: usually about 2 weeks
15 [02:07] <philipballew> right.
16 [02:08] <pleia2> then I ship them everywhere, which takes a day or two
17 [02:08] <philipballew> DarkwingDuck, should have them and I can meet him at the uh or whatever
18 [02:08] <pleia2> so I'll send a bunch down to you or DarkwingDuck probably the day after the shipment gets in
19 [02:08] <pleia2> sounds good :)
20 [02:08] <philipballew> he's gonna go to uds. will they show up before that?
21 [02:09] <pleia2> yeah, I think so
22 [02:09] <pleia2> we'll see how timing works out and go from there
23 [02:09] <pleia2> any other comments about the release for now?
24 [02:10] <DarkwingDuck> Hi, I'm here.

29 [02:11] <pleia2> DarkwingDuck: were you going to handle this?
30 [02:11] <DarkwingDuck> Yes, I have zero notes. I'm on mobile right now.
31 [02:11] <bkerensa> pleia2: :) CA could always come visit their Northern Neighbor... We should have a keg, soft drinks and gourmet pizza again (fingers crossed)
32 [02:11] <bkerensa> :D
33 [02:11] <DarkwingDuck> However, I get my working laptop tomorrow so, I will be sending an email about it very very very soon.

39 [02:12] * MarkDude nominates nhaines
40 [02:12] <jdeslip> Yep. It has been a fun year for me. But, I'm not going to run for reelection :)
41 [02:12] <pleia2> elections are yearly, and we elect three people from around the state to co-lead
42 [02:12] <pleia2> it's that time of year :)
43 [02:12] <rww> o/
44 [02:13] <pleia2> MarkDude: nominating people is fine, but please confirm they are willing to stand for leadership before formally submitting their name
45 [02:13] <MarkDude> fair enough, makes sense
46 [02:13] <DarkwingDuck> I'll be sending an email laying out the procedure.
47 [02:13] <rww> (as in hi, not as in volunteering)

58 [02:16] <MarkDude> it pays with a warm fuzzy from the feeling of helping ;)
59 [02:16] <rww> That's what that is? I thought it was indigestion.
60 [02:17] <DarkwingDuck> Libertopia is getting rough... I'm having a hard time witht he funds... Being unemployed sux

64 [02:18] <DarkwingDuck> pleia2: I was going to.
65 [02:18] <pleia2> philipballew: they sent a conference pack, they don't give financial funding for booths beyond that
