(2011-08-09 19:05:41) oracology: zeroedout: agreed. but it is my bedtime, so I should head off to bed...talk to you again soon! (2011-08-09 19:06:00) zeroedout: bye!

(2011-08-09 19:08:50) dscassel: Hi psema4mobile. BobJonkman was telling me about you. :) (2011-08-09 19:09:37) BobJonkman: I have a little stack of Ubuntu CDs here, literally with your name on them. (2011-08-09 19:09:55) BobJonkman: (Well, with your name on the stack, not the individual disks) (2011-08-09 19:09:59) psema4mobile: Lol. :-) (2011-08-09 19:10:48) psema4mobile: Sorry bit hard to type on this phone. (2011-08-09 19:11:22) razorgoto: psema4mobile: You on a Desire Z? (2011-08-09 19:11:26) BobJonkman: psema4mobile and I are trying to set up a date for an Ubuntu Hour in Hamilton (2011-08-09 19:11:56) psema4mobile: razorgoto no, xperia play (2011-08-09 19:12:10) BobJonkman: Maybe in September, if our calendars remain clear (2011-08-09 19:12:37) psema4mobile: agree, need to clear off my plate a bit. (2011-08-09 19:12:44) BobJonkman: psema4mobile becomes the latest member of the Ubuntu Hour CD Bribery Program (2011-08-09 19:12:55) dscassel: Awesome. :D (2011-08-09 19:13:12) psema4mobile: B-) (2011-08-09 19:13:13) razorgoto: Great! :-) (2011-08-09 19:13:15) dscassel: I guess that means we should move onto the only actual agenda item: (2011-08-09 19:13:17) dscassel: Events! (2011-08-09 19:14:10) dscassel: There's ubuntu hours, of course. (2011-08-09 19:14:22) dscassel: I'm running mine next Wednesday in Waterloo. (2011-08-09 19:14:48) dscassel: Charles McColm is running one in downtown Kitchener as well. (2011-08-09 19:14:52) BobJonkman: @chaslinux is running one in Kitchener (2011-08-09 19:14:54) BobJonkman: :)) (2011-08-09 19:15:07) dscassel: So Ubuntu Canada currently has two ubuntu hours: both in K-W. ^^; (2011-08-09 19:15:35) razorgoto: We are still trying for a consistent one in Toronto. (2011-08-09 19:16:00) dscassel: If I could afford the time off, I'd do a cross-country tour to do thim all over the place and show people they're really not hard or anything. (2011-08-09 19:16:21) razorgoto: Linuxcaffe on College is kind of like a semi-permanent Ubuntu Hour. ;-) (2011-08-09 19:16:30) dscassel: razorgoto: True. :) (2011-08-09 19:16:32) razorgoto: but agreed, dscassel. (2011-08-09 19:16:57) psema4mobile: If no one objects, can I get a rundown? I've checked the eiki page but would prefer a first hand description. (2011-08-09 19:17:09) dscassel: Of an Hour? (2011-08-09 19:17:23) dscassel: It's just a meet-up. (2011-08-09 19:17:39) dscassel: Laptops optional (depending on the group, they are sometimes frowned upon). (2011-08-09 19:17:51) dscassel: Just meet local Ubuntu people. (2011-08-09 19:18:05) dscassel: You can talk about Ubuntu, or whatever else comes up. (2011-08-09 19:18:14) psema4mobile: an informal outreach, user get together then. ok (2011-08-09 19:18:24) dscassel: Yeah, basically. (2011-08-09 19:18:27) psema4mobile: cool. (2011-08-09 19:18:41) dscassel: It gives people a reliable *thing* they can start building a community around. (2011-08-09 19:18:50) BobJonkman: dscassel: There are Ubuntu Hours on the calendar for Longeuil and Montreal too (2011-08-09 19:19:11) dscassel: BobJonkman: Yes, true, but I won't take credit for ubuntu-qc. :) (2011-08-09 19:19:44) dscassel: I'm going to try to get to one when I'm in Montreal in a couple weeks. (2011-08-09 19:20:27) dscassel: (I'll be close to the Outremont one, but I'm taking the train to Ottawa on Thursday...) (2011-08-09 19:20:56) dscassel: Also, the Ubuntu global Jam is coming up. Sept 2-4. (2011-08-09 19:21:08) dscassel: We'll be hosting a Jam event at Kwartzlab. (2011-08-09 19:21:50) dscassel: (Ubuntu Jams, btw, are all about *contributing* to Ubuntu. Testing, bug triage, development, etc.) (2011-08-09 19:22:36) dscassel: txwikinger has a plan to build an automated packaging tool to help with package updates especially. (2011-08-09 19:22:59) dscassel: So we'll be doing something like a hackathon around that, i think. (2011-08-09 19:23:02) BobJonkman: I've reported bugs, but haven't actually contributed code. (2011-08-09 19:23:10) dscassel: Or whatever else the people who show up want to do. (2011-08-09 19:23:47) dscassel: BobJonkman: Nothing wrong with that. :) (2011-08-09 19:24:29) BobJonkman: And Ubuntu Community Boosterism is a contribution too (2011-08-09 19:24:48) dscassel: BobJonkman: Absolutely. :) (2011-08-09 19:25:55) bregma: Ubuntu likes non-coding contributions (2011-08-09 19:26:13) BobJonkman: The Ubuntu Jams happen close to the next version release date (2011-08-09 19:26:32) bregma: end of October? (2011-08-09 19:26:45) dscassel: After beta 1. (2011-08-09 19:26:52) BobJonkman: I think Oneiric releases on Oct 13 (2011-08-09 19:27:10) bregma: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricReleaseSchedule (2011-08-09 19:27:59) dscassel: Stuff's pretty locked down by the time the Jam comes around. (2011-08-09 19:28:21) dscassel: Which is why the emphasis tends to be on testing and triage. (2011-08-09 19:28:38) bregma: actually the lock down starts Thursday (2011-08-09 19:28:41) dscassel: txwikinger was getting kind of bored with triage, tho (He's kind of done a lot of it. :) (2011-08-09 19:28:57) bregma: some of us start work on the P-series next week (2011-08-09 19:29:05) bregma: I wish it had a name (2011-08-09 19:29:16) BobJonkman: Still, we need someone to show the rest of us how triage is done. (2011-08-09 19:29:34) BobJonkman: It's much more comfortable with an experienced triager at the helm (2011-08-09 19:29:50) dscassel: BobJonkman: Yeah, and I don't think he'll mind helping out. (2011-08-09 19:30:47) dscassel: bregma: What do you *do*, exactly. :) (2011-08-09 19:31:07) dscassel: I ask out of genuine interest. (2011-08-09 19:33:08) razorgoto: guys, for the jam, do you guys do it all in one physical location? (2011-08-09 19:33:55) dscassel: razorgoto: Depends on the Jam. (2011-08-09 19:34:06) dscassel: For ours, yeah. we hold it here at Kwartzlab. (2011-08-09 19:34:11) BobJonkman: In Kitchener Waterloo we go to Kwartzlab. The camraderie is nice, even if we don't get much work done (2011-08-09 19:34:20) dscassel: I know there are other Jams that are distributed, and people work together on things over IRC. (2011-08-09 19:35:36) ***psema4mobile wishes there were a GO route brtween Hamilton and KW (2011-08-09 19:35:53) dscassel: razorgoto: I know you guys were interested in running Jams at Free Geek, but I guess you're busy with Linux Fest...? (2011-08-09 19:35:56) razorgoto: I've polled around here at Free Geek, we have the space, but we don't have someone interested in organizing one. (2011-08-09 19:36:02) dscassel: psema4mobile: You're not the only one. :) (2011-08-09 19:36:11) BobJonkman: psema4mobile Are you involved with the Hamilton Hackerspace? (2011-08-09 19:36:25) psema4mobile: um, loosely. (2011-08-09 19:37:11) psema4mobile: Ive spoken with a few if the communities members (2011-08-09 19:37:26) dscassel: I just know Adina... (2011-08-09 19:37:33) dscassel: (even then not very well) (2011-08-09 19:38:29) dscassel: Speaking of hackerspaces, SoOnCon 2011 is October 1 at Bell Lightbox in Toronto. (2011-08-09 19:38:38) cvillaco: dscassel, do I understand that one of the jam locations may be running irc? (2011-08-09 19:39:10) cvillaco: sorry for my typing, my hand is in a brace right now and want to catch before the question is gone (2011-08-09 19:39:21) dscassel: cvillaco: I know they've had virtual jams in the past, but I haven't heard about one this time. (2011-08-09 19:39:28) dscassel: I can look into it for you. (2011-08-09 19:39:40) dscassel: I'm sure BobJonkman and I will be online here during the proceedings. :) (2011-08-09 19:39:45) kjwcode: Any Vancouver, BC events? (2011-08-09 19:39:50) dscassel: We can set up the webcam too.. (2011-08-09 19:39:51) ***psema4mobile will be right back after these msgs (2011-08-09 19:39:57) BobJonkman: I'll be at Kwartzlab, and I can bring a dedicated laptop for IRC (2011-08-09 19:40:24) dscassel: kjwcode: You'd have to check Ubuntu Vancouver. http://www.meetup.com/ubuntuvancouver/ (2011-08-09 19:40:37) cvillaco: i wonder if there would be enough attendees via irc to mak eit worthwhile, it could be a porta if there is interest for the members who are not close to a session (2011-08-09 19:40:39) dscassel: Randall Ross has posted cryptic blog posts about it. (2011-08-09 19:40:40) kjwcode: dscassel: Thanks for the pointer -- checking! (2011-08-09 19:41:06) dscassel: kjwcode: np :) (2011-08-09 19:41:38) dscassel: cvillaco: Dunno. A lot of it can be done independantly, tho. (2011-08-09 19:41:45) dscassel: Like bug triage. (2011-08-09 19:41:46) razorgoto: do you guys keep this channel open during the jame party in Kwartzlab? (2011-08-09 19:42:09) dscassel: It's more fun to do it in groups, but nothing stopping you otherwise. (2011-08-09 19:42:33) BobJonkman: razorgoto: This channel is always open, but I'll pay special attention during the Jam (2011-08-09 19:42:37) dscassel: razorgoto: Sure. Actually, I'm in here all the time. Often idle, but still online. (2011-08-09 19:42:59) razorgoto: Sorry, you know what I mean by "open". (2011-08-09 19:43:13) ***psema4mobile is back (2011-08-09 19:43:22) dscassel: You can check the Kwartzlab webcam here: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/kwartzlab (2011-08-09 19:43:23) BobJonkman: Yes, "paying attention to" :-) (2011-08-09 19:43:34) razorgoto: Yep, Bob. :-) (2011-08-09 19:43:40) dscassel: (I guess it's offline at the moment. I'll kick it when the meeting's over) (2011-08-09 19:44:22) BobJonkman: I learned about Big Blue Button at KWLUG yesterday, maybe we can set up a conference (2011-08-09 19:44:27) dscassel: cvillaco: If you really want to go to a jam, you can run one. :) (2011-08-09 19:44:49) cvillaco: is thee ppl interested in participating remotely? (2011-08-09 19:45:24) cvillaco: ohh, haha, (2011-08-09 19:45:32) cvillaco: maybe such a thing is possible. (2011-08-09 19:45:57) razorgoto: I think so. cvillaco. (2011-08-09 19:46:13) dscassel: cvillaco: An Ubuntu hour would be an easier place to start, but hey, it's still not that bad running a Jam. (2011-08-09 19:46:33) razorgoto: cvillaco: where are you in Canada? (2011-08-09 19:46:37) dscassel: See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Jams (2011-08-09 19:46:39) cvillaco: i think i would be int3erested in observing first before making concrete actions. (2011-08-09 19:46:45) BobJonkman: About half-way between a Jam and an Hour is a Release Party (2011-08-09 19:47:00) BobJonkman: in complexity, that is (2011-08-09 19:47:02) cvillaco: maybe watch a jam first or something. (2011-08-09 19:47:20) cvillaco: razorgoto i am in Thunder Bay On (2011-08-09 19:47:50) razorgoto: cvillaco: I think the same as you. It's hard to know how to organize something properly if one has never been to one before... (2011-08-09 19:48:18) dscassel: cvillaco: I've seen a couple Thunder Bay people come and go through the channel and IRC. (2011-08-09 19:48:48) razorgoto: I think it's the logistics of it. Is the organizer reponsible to "find something for people to do?" (2011-08-09 19:49:10) dscassel: And you might be able to tempt tonyyarusso to come up from Minnesota... (2011-08-09 19:49:24) razorgoto: Or would the jam participants be mostly self-directed... I read the website before, and it wasn't to clear the social conventions of one. (2011-08-09 19:49:43) dscassel: razorgoto: I haven't really figured that one out either. (2011-08-09 19:49:47) dscassel: So mostly self-directed. (2011-08-09 19:49:59) dscassel: We have an actual project we're going to work on this time. (2011-08-09 19:50:10) dscassel: But there's nothing that comes down from the mothership. (2011-08-09 19:50:20) dscassel: Last time there was stuff about testing Unity. (2011-08-09 19:50:26) dscassel: Time before that tehy wanted install testing. (2011-08-09 19:50:33) BobJonkman: For me, at the Jams, installing a Beta has always resulted in bugs to report. (2011-08-09 19:50:46) dscassel: Yeah, that's not a bad place to start. (2011-08-09 19:50:50) razorgoto: BobJonkman: :-) (2011-08-09 19:51:33) BobJonkman: So I've kept myself busy that way. I may have triaged one bug in the last 3 Jams.. (2011-08-09 19:51:49) dscassel: razorgoto: You guys doing anything for Software Freedom Day? (2011-08-09 19:52:01) dscassel: That would seem to be up Free Geek's alley. :) (2011-08-09 19:52:24) razorgoto: nope. (2011-08-09 19:52:27) razorgoto: :-( (2011-08-09 19:53:30) razorgoto: We've been internally focused the last few months. We have this whole "facilities management" side of the operations. (2011-08-09 19:53:53) dscassel: razorgoto: No worries. (2011-08-09 19:53:54) razorgoto: that's been taking up a lot of time. :-( (2011-08-09 19:54:19) BobJonkman: SFD is always on a Saturday, so you could just put up some posters and talk about software freedom in the ordinary course of events (2011-08-09 19:55:13) dscassel: According to the website (http://softwarefreedomday.org/) there are events in Victoria, Winnipeg, Kitchener (hosted by chaslinux again), Pickering, montreal and Quebec. (2011-08-09 19:56:08) razorgoto: Pickering? (2011-08-09 19:56:17) dscassel: Yeah, I know! (2011-08-09 19:56:37) razorgoto: lol! (2011-08-09 19:57:04) dscassel: http://wiki.softwarefreedomday. org/2011/Canada/Pickering/Ontario/Pickering%20Public%20Library%20Main (2011-08-09 19:57:36) psema4mobile: cool, at the library even! (2011-08-09 19:57:46) dscassel: There *should* be events everywhere. :) (2011-08-09 19:57:57) razorgoto: I wonder which library branch is that? (2011-08-09 19:58:13) dscassel: Main, apparently. (2011-08-09 19:58:41) cvillaco: maybe bringing some ubuntu posters or informative pamplets to such events would introduce people who are using proprietary solutions to the idea of a free software operating system, (2011-08-09 19:59:19) razorgoto: Oh, I know the person that runs that library... (2011-08-09 19:59:25) BobJonkman: razorgoto: What can you tell us about FSOSS? (2011-08-09 19:59:51) BobJonkman: Specifically, the LinuxFest that goes along with FSOSS this year? (2011-08-09 20:00:04) razorgoto: Well, we're doing this thing with Seneca this year. (2011-08-09 20:00:38) razorgoto: They do FSOSS every year and they have the space, resources, people and volunteers to manage and plan a big event. (2011-08-09 20:01:08) BobJonkman: Are you still accepting speakers for LinuxFest? (2011-08-09 20:01:08) razorgoto: Basically, it will be at Seneca @ York... so not in Scarborough. (2011-08-09 20:01:17) razorgoto: Bob, totally. (2011-08-09 20:01:29) dscassel: razorgoto: I put in my proposal. :) (2011-08-09 20:01:44) razorgoto: Actually, we had a dearth of speakers this year so far. (2011-08-09 20:02:02) razorgoto: I am encouraging everyone I know to join. (2011-08-09 20:02:38) razorgoto: We are also, on top of the conference, doing an unconference on the last day. (2011-08-09 20:03:20) razorgoto: So that will be more a breakout time to do more workshops and conferences. Maybe of a more impromptu nature. (2011-08-09 20:03:32) dscassel: Cool. (2011-08-09 20:04:19) dscassel: Well, it's after 8. (2011-08-09 20:04:45) razorgoto: time does fly swiftly. (2011-08-09 20:04:49) dscassel: Oneiric is out Oct. 13 so get planning release parties!

(2011-08-09 20:06:15) razorgoto: The last Ubuntu Release party was great fun here in Toronto. (2011-08-09 20:06:19) BobJonkman: The toughest part is getting the Ubuntu logo on the Devilled Eggs! (2011-08-09 20:06:26) dscassel: Probably better Oneiric isn't an LTS. Don't want to have to keep trying to pronounce it for 5 years.
