Ubuntu-ca Team Meeting in IRC

Minutes

BobJonkman will be helping with meetings (promo, minutes, logs)
rugbeeprop (Tek Ang) will help with Web site(s)
- There are some stale websites, eg. CanadianTeam/Toronto; refresh but don't delete content
Still need help with CanadianTeam/TeamReports and Local Event Coordinators
Feel free to jump in with anything that makes Ubuntu better or supports the community

There's some city teams, and an online community across the Country
Ubuntu Quebec and Ubuntu Vancouver have their own LoCos, but still part of Ubuntu-ca online community
Provincial LoCos would not make it any easier to participate in local events in other areas. It's just as difficult to go from Toronto to Thunder Bay as it is to go from Newfoundland to British Columbia.
Provincial LoCos may increase the administrative burden:
- Applying to LoCo council for LoCo approval
- Multiple LoCo sites to maintain
Provincial LoCos might improve access to CDs and other Canonical swag
Consensus: We do nothing about Provincial LoCos.
- Even if LoCo council does require Provincial LoCos it won't change the activities we're already doing

FSOSS was pretty awesome
- dscassel (Darcy Casselman) and Rarsa (Raul Suarez) presented on Saturday
- Next year we get a table at FSOSS!

The LoCo council (or members thereof) have suggested that Canada is too big for one team (or three) and would prefer it be split into province teams
- What value would province teams have over a national team?
- Is this something people would be in favour of?
