15:41:55 <nigelb> I had a bunch of action items from last time which I haven't been able to get to.

15:42:29 <nigelb> neither Mohi or mingo is here
15:42:42 <tazz> /
15:42:45 <geekosopher> yes
15:42:52 <nigelb> But mingo updated the list that he's having exams and he won't be able to deal with the website for some time.
15:42:58 <geekosopher> mingo already took the leave i guess

15:43:21 <nigelb> lut4rp: ping
15:43:31 <nigelb> lut4rp: Hey, were you able to find time to shut down the forums?
15:43:44 <nigelb> I spoke to lut4rp last month and he said there wasn't much to glean from the forums.
15:44:06 <geekosopher> hmm
15:44:15 <nigelb> Anyone else left over from last topic?
15:44:33 <coolbhavi> nigelb, on packaging sessions?
15:45:05 <nigelb> coolbhavi: hrrm, we didn't action it last time. I'll bring it up this time

15:46:25 <nigelb> so, we'll go in that order today.
15:46:36 <geekosopher> ok
15:46:50 <nigelb> I think next time I'll get it more organized.
15:46:56 <nigelb> Sorry about the mess this time around

15:48:47 <nigelb> If you want to suggest a course or want to take a course, please get in touch with pleia2, nhandler, or me in #ubuntu-classroom-backstage
15:49:06 <nigelb> We'd like your help in getting word out about the sessions since they are all user oriented
15:49:15 <geekosopher> but how do we involve our loco in it, or is it not intended to be?
15:49:16 <nigelb> A lot of sessions will be beginner friendly too.
15:49:32 <nigelb> geekosopher: We'd like the locos to spread the word out and get people to attend
15:49:41 <geekosopher> ok
15:49:58 <nigelb> Any questions/suggestions about UUD?
15:50:47 <geekosopher> nothing comes to mind right now

15:53:17 <geekosopher> ok
15:53:19 <aanjhan> Is there a possibility to link all these team reports from our wikki?
15:53:32 <nigelb> aanjhan: the reports have to be done on the wiki

15:53:48 <nigelb> aanjhan: But the ubuntu wiki, since its linked to newsletter
15:54:08 <aanjhan> nigelb: then please do link them atleast on our site
