   8  02:02:01 <nhaines> #topic Upcoming events and general announcements
   9  02:02:11 <nhaines> Are there any announcements to be made?
  10  02:02:24 * pleia2 has none
  11  02:02:53 <nhaines> I suppose it's noteworthy, if 2.5 months off, that three of us are planning to attend UbuCon Europe.  :)
  12  02:03:02 <pleia2> indeed!
  13  02:03:11 <pleia2> they're started putting together the schedule :)
  14  02:03:20 <nhaines> They've finished putting together the schedule.  :)

  17  02:03:53 <nhaines> It should be pretty fun, and by "fun" I mean I won't be running it, hehe.
  18  02:04:06 <nhaines> Although I'm sure I'll stilll be moving heavy things.
  19  02:05:40 <nhaines> Hmm, Ubuntu 16.10 is moving along quietly.  OTA-13 on the phones is coming, with copy/paste support between native Ubuntu SDK apps and legacy X desktop apps.
  20  02:06:16 <nhaines> The Ubuntu Free Culture Showcase wallpaper competition for 16.10 is ongoing: https://www.flickr.com/groups/ubuntu-fcs-1610

  22  02:06:25 <nhaines> And that's all I've got.  :)
  23  02:06:33 <nhaines> #topic Agenda
  24  02:06:42 <nhaines> There are no agenda items this week.
  25  02:06:49 <nhaines> #topic Other business
  26  02:07:12 <pleia2> so I haven't been here since our SF release party
  27  02:07:36 <nhaines> Did we get an update on that?  How did that go?  :)
  28  02:07:49 <pleia2> it went ok :) wasn't blockbuster like past ones
  29  02:08:24 <pleia2> but we had fun, had tablets and laptops out for people to play with, and I did a 16.04 presentation + OTA 12
  30  02:08:27 <nhaines> Sometimes smaller parties can be fun.  More intricate conversations.

  33  02:08:53 <pleia2> yeah, there was a fair amount of that
  34  02:09:25 <pleia2> so we had about 15 people, lots of nice chats
  35  02:10:23 <pleia2> and OpenDNS was awesome for hosting
  36  02:10:34 <nhaines> For all the routineness of "it's the 24th Ubuntu release," 16.04 LTS was sort of game-changing.  :)
  37  02:11:01 <pleia2> not a bad place for a venue, but it was during a ball game which messed up traffic+parking a bit
  38  02:11:05 <pleia2> will have to pay attention to that next time
  39  02:11:27 <nhaines> It was really nice of OpenDNS to host.  :)
  40  02:11:37 <pleia2> yeah :)
  41  02:11:53 <pleia2> that's all really, glad we did it even if it was small
  42  02:12:33 <nhaines> That's great.  :)
  43  02:13:22 <nhaines> I'll bet the first release party after Unity 8 hits will be amazeballs.
  44  02:13:28 <pleia2> hope so!
  45  02:13:40 <nhaines> Until then, we just have to convince people that snaps change EVERYTHING.
  46  02:13:59 <nhaines> I don't have any other business.
  47  02:15:56 <nhaines> Okay, I think that's it for this week, then.
  48  02:16:11 <nhaines> I hope everyone has a relaxing Labor Day tomorrow.
  49  02:16:36 <pleia2> thanks, you too nhaines
  50  02:16:42 <nhaines> Thanks!  :)
  51  02:16:44 <pleia2> and happy birthday BirthdayHandler!
  52  02:16:53 <nhaines> Happy Birthday!
