20:09 < czajkowski> drubin: hi there

20:09 < nuvolari> whoop! we're up :D go drubin!
20:09 < czajkowski> right so there is 4 council members so we're good to go
20:09 < maiatoday> go drubin
20:09 < drubin> czajkowski: questions?
20:09 < czajkowski> drubin: so care to tell us about your loco please
20:09 < drubin> So an introduction is something that explains who what we are... Kinda hard really because we are every one....
20:10 < stefanlsd> heys, if south africa can host a world cup, we can host a loco :)
20:10 < drubin> So we as a loco are from the Southern Part of Africa.
20:10 < drubin> stefanlsd: ^5
20:10 < highvoltage> yes we can!
20:10 < czajkowski> grin
20:10 < drubin> czajkowski: We are the place were ubuntu kinda started with Mark ;-p
20:10 < czajkowski> ok can you tell us how you share out roles and oraganise events
20:10 < highvoltage> there's some people in the loco that also really stepped up the last year or so and have been doing great work
20:10 < drubin> czajkowski: we don't really have a formal proccess ;/
20:10 < nuvolari> ^5
20:11 < czajkowski> drubin: so how does stuff get done?
20:11  * tumbleweed waves as a new ZA MOTU
20:11 < highvoltage> like maiatoday who hosted and awesome release party at her house (which is just one of many cool things she did)
20:11 < drubin> czajkowski: There was a gap this year right after we lost our website but after speaking to superfly (where is he)
20:12 < drubin> he basically redesigned our site and well http://ubuntu-za.org/ came out ;-p
20:12 < drubin> czajkowski: That is something I would actually like to change the whole roles thing but every one seems *very* busy at the current momment
20:12 < drubin> as with every one. ;-p
20:13 < czajkowski> *nods*
20:13 < czajkowski> of course
20:13 < drubin> So the whole formal role thing is a bit much, but people all help out where they can when they can.
20:13 < crabbytag> drubin: can you talk a bit ab out the case stickers?
20:13 < drubin> makes special note of sueprfly, maiatoday, and tumbleweed
20:13 < drubin> crabbytag: which ones?
20:13 < Kilos> hiya. im here
20:13 < drubin> crabbytag: both maiatoday and me make case badges ;-p
20:13 < nuvolari> ya, some employers don't fully support passion for ubuntu :( But I try to wedge in time where I can :)
20:13 < highvoltage> drubin: I assume the ones on the re-application wiki page :)
20:13 < crabbytag> thats the one :)
20:14  * inetpro comes to join the ubuntu-za croud - sorry for being late
20:14 < drubin> Ok will start with mine http://blog.smartcube.co.za/2009/05/26/ubuntu-pc-badges-for-za/
20:14  * Morganvd here to help where i can with ubuntu-za
20:14 < drubin> basically I just got my laptop and I didn't like the fact it said "powered by widnows Vista" so phoned around got a quote and printed 4000
20:14 < drubin> they wouldn't print any thing less and I thought well I can give them out so I did.
20:15  * maiatoday likes shiney case badges with ubuntu logos
20:15 < Morganvd> i need a few of those
20:15 < drubin> http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/en/material/unusual/small-25mm-badge-pins << maiatoday's badges happened I think because she showed me the
               design at one of the ubuntu hours and I was like OMG that is awesome I want like 20
20:15 < MootBot> LINK received:  http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/en/material/unusual/small-25mm-badge-pins << maiatoday's badges happened I think because
                she showed me the design at one of the ubuntu hours and I was like OMG that is awesome I want like 20
20:15 < drubin> so she got them printed as well
20:15 < highvoltage> maiatoday also had human badges!
20:15  * inetpro received a set of stickers from drubin all the way in Pretoria
20:16 < drubin> We both kinda gave them out to people and said they can donate what they can/want to

20:16 < drubin> we also had CAKE!!! come cake ftw
20:16 < czajkowski> how many people turn up to your events? say a relase party?
20:16  * nuvolari also got badges from drubin
20:16  * helger also got badges
20:16 < drubin> czajkowski: mmm We kinda lost ourwiki posts
20:16 < drubin> highvoltage: ^
20:17 < drubin> czajkowski: but at the last global jam we hadd +-50 people come though
20:17 < drubin> and at the release part in CPT/Stellenbosch there were +- 35
20:17 < maiatoday> czajkowski: there are sometimes simultaneous events in different places in the country
20:17 < drubin> people made the 55min drive effort to come
20:17 < crabbytag> nice!
20:18 < drubin> CPT = Cape town (city) JHB = another city
20:18 < czajkowski> ok
20:18 < drubin> exact numbers are odd.
20:18 < nuvolari> In Bloem we had around 8 people the last time, and I think Brandfort also had that, or a greater number
20:18 < stefanlsd> south africa is pretty big... takes like 15 hours to drive across it.
20:18 < drubin> but at the Karmic release party we had +- 5 or 6 release aprties in cpts
20:18 < drubin> Lucid we had like 3 it was less of a hipe.
20:18 < Morganvd> There was 6 in Johannesburg for Karmix
20:18 < Morganvd> Karmic*
20:18 < drubin> I guess people were really busy.
20:18 < inetpro> we've had release parties in Gauteng with every release that I can remember of
20:19 < drubin> btw the same as the report thing, I might be the contact but well every thing is a team effort
20:19 < nuvolari> yay for superfly :D
20:19 < nuvolari> :P
20:19 < superfly> sorry I'm late
20:19 < drubin> btw hamslaa1 is the System admin for one of the Universities in A
20:19  * txwikinger cheers on superfly
20:20 < drubin> and he has pretty much helped out getting ubuntu regonised and every thing in the uni. see
               http://www.ubuntu.sun.ac.za/wiki/index.php/Special:Statistics
20:20 < superfly> ohi txwikinger
20:20 < drubin> basically the reason that is better to have a different wiki is this one is "Free access to studnets" so they don't use their Internet hours
               to access ubuntu resources (because it is local)
20:21 < czajkowski> ok
20:21 < drubin> wow huge stats on the SUN wiki.
20:21 < drubin> czajkowski: any other questions?
20:21 < czajkowski> ok lets vote
20:21 < helger> bandwidth is still quite expensive in SA

20:30  * popey pokes the wiki with a stick
20:30 < czajkowski> nagaraja: ok, well the layout we suggested and naming hasn;'t been followed
20:31 < czajkowski> amachu: nagaraja  I don't think we can process this application today
20:31 < czajkowski> it's lacking any of the information
20:31 < czajkowski> we'd suggest you have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoExampleApplication
20:31 < czajkowski> and come back on August 17th

20:31 < amachu> thats fine with us

20:32 < czajkowski> if you need help the council can help we idle in #ubuntu-locoteams
20:32 < amachu> czajkowski: thats fine
20:32 < popey> we can certainly help you prepare the wiki page

20:37 < czajkowski> wow impressive
20:37 < czajkowski> so how do you go about organising your events?
20:37 < czajkowski> does everyone just help ?
20:37 < popey> excellent stuff
20:38 < uros1> LoCo core team is active in organisation, but other users have great role in events as well
0:38 < czajkowski> oh good I like to hear that
20:38 < Githzerai> we usually have minor problems during organisation, but things somehoe just work out
20:38 < huats> do you have pictures of the material you are doing ? (like tshirt and stuffs you mention) ? I am a big fan of sharing this kind of stuffs
              (well the sources) so that teams that have less artists can also do their own
20:38 < czajkowski> Githzerai: such as?
20:39 < Githzerai> Well biggset problem is finding appropriate place to hold such event
20:39 < uros1> T-shirts
20:39 < uros1> maybe
20:39 < czajkowski> Githzerai: yes it can be hard.
20:40 < popey> Githzerai: same issue every loco has I'm afraid :)
20:40 < czajkowski> Githzerai: is it size/location or cost issues you face?
20:40 < popey> Githzerai: if you find a magic venue, let other locos know! :D
20:40 < Githzerai> :)

20:40 < uros1> :)
20:41 < Githzerai> Most of the time we manage to find some location for free, but timing schedule is a problem.
20:41 <@czajkowski> so is there any issues you faced in the last 2 years since you were first approved?
20:41 < uros1> yes, server problem
20:41 < olujicz> huats, we mainly use materials from http://spreadubuntu.neomenlo.org/
20:41 < Githzerai> Server troubles, so we are currently in a process of migrating to a new host
20:42 <@czajkowski> Githzerai: ok
20:42 < huats> olujicz, ok so it is already shared ! great

20:46 < prvul> we know
20:46 <@paultag> prvul: are you considering making them a regular thing?
20:46 < Githzerai> That is one of the things we would like to improve.
20:46 < uros1> yes we know and we do that
20:46 < uros1> in close future
20:47 < prvul> yes! but until now we havent used ubuntu oficial wiki
20:47 <@czajkowski> Githzerai: I hope to read serbia report so in Next months news letter
20:47 < prvul> because we have our own
20:47 < prvul> we alredy set up basic pages for reports
20:47 < prvul> just didnt fill them
20:47 < prvul> :)
20:47 <@popey> we could look at how to make it easier for people to contribute reports on external wikis

20:51 <@czajkowski> you were re approved
20:51 < stas> i called him just some hours before
20:51 < stas> oh, thanks guys
20:51 <@paultag> stas: you were +1'd unanimously
20:52 < stas> thanks, didn't know
20:52 <@paultag> stas: sure :)_
20:52 <@czajkowski> ok so getting back to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingApproved
20:52 <@itnet7> congratulations stas, sorry for the delay
20:52 < stas> keep up the great work :)
20:52 <@paultag> stas: back at you!
20:52 <@czajkowski> this is the wiki page teams are referred to, to create their applications
20:52 <@czajkowski> I think it'd be a good idea to add some more headings so that if teams need to do things via email it would have more content
20:53 <@czajkowski> but adding team reports would also be a heading I'd like to see
20:53 <@czajkowski> [link] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingApproved
20:53 < MootBot> LINK received:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingApproved
20:54 <@huats> czajkowski, I agree I think the team reports would help a lot
20:55 <@czajkowski> huats: any other headings you think might be a good idea to include?
20:55 <@paultag> Yeah, I agree
20:55 <@paultag> czajkowski: this is just the display page, yeah?
20:55 <@czajkowski> perhaps this is something that should be worked on and released for next cycle.....
20:55 <@paultag> czajkowski: not the actual report page that is <<Include()>>'d
20:55 <@paultag> right?
20:55 <@czajkowski> this would be for the TEAM/ApprovalApplication TEAM/REApprovalApplication
20:56 <@paultag> Oh dur, right.
20:56 <@czajkowski> paultag: ^^
20:56 <@czajkowski> but one heading would be Team reports
20:56 <@paultag> Yup, +1 on that here. I think that will work very well
20:56 <@popey> something really simple, we need to keep the overhead for the teams low
20:56 <@popey> especially those non-native-english
20:56 <@paultag> +1 popey
20:56 <@popey> barrier to re-approval should be low for those who have plenty of stuff to show us
20:56 <@czajkowski> indeed
20:56 <@popey> it should be as easy for them to show it to us as it is for them to document it in the first place
20:57 <@czajkowski> atm it's KEy DEtails, Roadmap, and Experience
20:57 <@huats> I'd like to see the evolution since the last vote of the council
20:57 <@popey> maybe we can take copies of successful team re-approvals as examples?
20:58 <@czajkowski> popey: nice idea
20:58 <@czajkowski> colombia france were excellent ones
20:58 <@popey> yeah
20:58 <@czajkowski> but they are very detailed, we could do wiht one also for a smaller loco ?
20:58 <@popey> maybe make pdfs out of them
20:58 <@popey> freeze them in stone
20:58 <@czajkowski> great idea
20:59 <@czajkowski> popey: can I action that to you
20:59 <@popey> sure
20:59 <@czajkowski> [acton] popey to create pdfs of successful team re approvals as examples to help teams
20:59 <@czajkowski> [action] popey to create pdfs of successful team re approvals as examples to help teams
20:59 < MootBot> ACTION received:  popey to create pdfs of successful team re approvals as examples to help teams
20:59 <@huats> I'd like to see in the reapproval application, the linkto the pdf of the approval application
20:59 <@popey> yup
21:00 <@huats> it is always nice to compare the planned roadmap to the real stuffs that happened
21:00 <@czajkowski> ok so perhaps we need to work on this a bit behind the scenes and then  come back with some ideas/drafts of wiki pages and then come up
                   with the new page ?
21:00 <@huats> czajkowski, I agree
21:01 <@czajkowski> ok so
21:01 <@czajkowski> huats: can I action you this item to kick off a mail and a sample wiki page of some new headings for council to work on
21:01 <@huats> czajkowski, go ahead
21:01 <@huats> :)
21:01 <@czajkowski> [action] huats to set up a sample new wiki page for applications and to kick off email for loco council to work on
21:01 < MootBot> ACTION received:  huats to set up a sample new wiki page for applications and to kick off email for loco council to work on
21:02 < ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
21:02 < ActionParsnip> sorry a bit late, work was a pig
21:02 <@czajkowski> ok are there any other areas we need to cover, EMEA is on next
21:03 <@paultag> I think that's it :)
