  20:04:26 <czajkowski> #link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AsturianTeam/ReApprovalApplication2012

  20:04:37 <ivarela> Hi to all. Here, Asturian Team.

  20:05:20 <czajkowski> ivarela: hi there

  20:05:27 <ivarela> hi

  20:05:31 <czajkowski> care to tell us about your loco and how things are going on

  20:05:31 <SergioMeneses> ivarela, hello!

  20:06:41 <ivarela> First of all, I'm sorry for my english level... I'd like to speak in another language, because it's difficult for me, but... i'll try it.

  20:06:46 <czajkowski> kce

  20:06:51 <itnet7> Thanks ivarela

  20:06:54 <czajkowski> ivarela: no worries take your time

  20:06:56 <czajkowski> lovely wiki page

  20:07:04 <SergioMeneses> ivarela, take your time

  20:07:10 <czajkowski> and if there is anyone else here who can help ivarela please just say so

  20:07:18 <ivarela> As you can see in our ticket, we are a small group...

  20:07:21 <SergioMeneses> I really like the edubuntu video

  20:07:24 <SergioMeneses> nice

  20:07:34 <ivarela> we're asturians, a small territory placed in Spain.

  20:08:06 <highvoltage> SergioMeneses: which video is that?

  20:08:11 <ivarela> We began to spreading ubuntu at schools some time ago. Ubuntu it's a very good tool for our language.

  20:08:16 <czajkowski> nods

  20:08:26 <SergioMeneses> highvoltage, - http://youtu.be/rqOZ16kCuqw

  20:08:57 <ivarela> edubuntu is the educational job we do with scholars students.

  20:09:04 <czajkowski> great work

  20:09:15 <ivarela> We try to inicializate them in PC's with Free software.

  20:09:21 <SergioMeneses> ivarela, very interesting

  20:09:25 <highvoltage> awesome, will share through edubuntu social channels, and sorry for interrupting, I didn't realise this was -meeting

  20:09:46 <czajkowski> huats: no worries

  20:09:51 <czajkowski> highvoltage: no worries

  20:09:56 <SergioMeneses> and I see Marcos Costales belongs to ubuntu-ast

  20:10:11 <ivarela> do you know Costales ?

  20:10:13 <czajkowski> ivarela: great work, so how are things done in the loco ? does everyone help?

  20:10:31 <SergioMeneses> ivarela, yes... he is a amazing ubuntu member

  20:10:49 <ivarela> Costales is a well friend of mine.

  20:11:29 <ivarela> People use to work at LoCo, but unfortunately, not all the people has the same free time, so we try to involve all people in the group

  20:11:46 <ivarela> This year we had less activity than last year. We tried to open many doors, but we've had less luck.

  20:12:07 <czajkowski> nods

  20:12:10 <czajkowski> it does happen

  20:12:29 <ivarela> For example... We had prepared a summer course with UABRA (Summer University), but in the end we could not do it because of problems with the days

  20:12:32 <SergioMeneses> ivarela, maybe if you work with the universities, colleges....

  20:12:32 <czajkowski> it's hard but at least youre still going and every bit does help and I love the video well done

  20:12:50 <huats> Sorry I am here

  20:13:23 <ivarela> what you see in the video it was a very good experience for me. It was the first time that children worked with Ubuntu, and the first time that

  20:13:28 <czajkowski> ivarela: is there anything the loco council can do to help ?

  20:13:36 <ivarela> the worked in a O.S in their language.

  20:13:59 <ivarela> czajkowski, do you mean now, here?

  20:14:12 <czajkowski> well in general

  20:14:14 <ivarela> in this chat?

  20:14:28 <czajkowski> ivarela: if you want and it can be disussed in public sure

  20:14:33 <czajkowski> or you need help after te meeting

  20:15:17 <ivarela> hmmm I'm sorry. SergioMeneses do you speak spanish?

  20:15:39 <ivarela> I think I need a help in this moment to understand the question... :S

  20:15:42 <SergioMeneses> ivarela, yes I do, why?

  20:15:55 <ivarela> no entiendo la pregunta de czajkowski .. :S

  20:16:04 <SergioMeneses> ivarela, czajkowski te pregunta si necesitan alguna ayuda por parte del loco council

  20:16:05 <ayoze> ivarela: czajkowski pregunta si el "loco council" puede hacer algo para ayudar

  20:17:10 <ivarela> oh, no... we have the people, and we have the tools to do it better, but we need more illusion.

  20:17:29 <czajkowski> ok well I think we'll be blogging your video after this

  20:22:17 <czajkowski> who's here from the czech Loco ?

  20:22:24 <vojtech_t> hi from the Czech rep.

  20:22:25 <TadeasParik> czajkowski, hello!

  20:22:33 <czajkowski> hey there folks thanks for coming

  20:22:43 <SergioMeneses> hello Czech LoCo !!!

  20:22:49 <czajkowski> lovely pictures on the applicateion

  20:22:51 <czajkowski> *application

  20:22:56 <vojtech_t> thanks

  20:23:05 <itnet7> Hey there!! TadeasParik, vojtech_t, and team!!

  20:23:26 <itnet7> They were very nice!

  20:23:38 <czajkowski> vojtech_t: so tell us about your loco

  20:23:41 <czajkowski> and the work you guys do

  20:23:47 <SergioMeneses> it is a great application, congratz

  20:24:48 <vojtech_t> we are quite small community but we try to do our best, i think we are doing well with localization and community support and also with events organization -- you can see photos from our release parties (we started them in 2011) and also from other events/conferences we took part

  20:25:18 <itnet7> Very good activity!

  20:25:42 <vojtech_t> we would like to focus on working with people (we always need more volunteers and acitve members) and also with advocacy (we are trying but it's not as good as we would like to be)

  20:26:01 <czajkowski> nods

  20:26:16 <czajkowski> but at leas tyou se ethis and are working towards making this better

  20:26:19 <czajkowski> so that's good to see

  20:27:14 <czajkowski> vojtech_t: can you tell us about how you started the materials part of your loco

  20:27:32 <czajkowski> I see this as a very good thing to be doing in your loco and I know others in different teams have tried similar

  20:27:44 <vojtech_t> czajkowski: materials?

  20:28:01 <czajkowski> Recently we started to produce some Ubuntu marketing materials for Ubuntu users in Czechia. Currently we have badges, car stickers and "powered by" stickers for laptopts/computers.

  20:28:09 <czajkowski>

  20:28:13 <SergioMeneses> I was thinking to ask about it... they have a ubuntu book in czech

  20:28:18 <SergioMeneses> very amazing

  20:28:57 <vojtech_t> oh yes -- many our members asked us for some stickers they could put on their computer etc. and we just thought it's good idea

  20:29:23 <czajkowski> vojtech_t: would be nice to share them on http://spreadubuntu.org/

  20:29:25 <vojtech_t> we have a nonprofit organization and some money so it is not so difficult to make some of those

  20:29:37 <huats> I really like the book ! looks very promising

  20:30:15 <vojtech_t> spreadubuntu, yes but for now wee have only buttons (just ubuntu logo, no special graphics) and "standard" power by stickers

  20:30:38 <czajkowski> it's still great to see

  20:31:07 <czajkowski> so one thing I'm curuous about is what do you plan fo the future any events, I notice the http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-cz/events/history lists past events but nothing in the future

  20:31:12 <vojtech_t> huats: yes the book was great, but the last one is for Ubuntu 10.10 -- we really would like to produce new version, but publishing house is no longer interested and we don't have enough money to produce them on our own

  20:32:28 <huats> vojtech_t: may be you can try to find a foreign publishing company

  20:32:35 <huats> I don't know if it is possible

  20:33:02 <vojtech_t> czajkowski: we don't use loco.ubuntu.com -- we put our events there, but our primary "channel" for events is our forum

  20:33:09 <itnet7> vojtech_t: perhaps get some donation links on the project pages, and blog about it

  20:33:18 <czajkowski> vojtech_t: can we encourage you to maybe add them there please

  20:33:26 <itnet7> for the publishing costs

  20:33:27 <czajkowski> as that is where all users are directed to to find out about teams

  20:34:47 <czajkowski> #topic please vote on the reapproval of the Czech LoCo

  20:34:50 <vojtech_t> czajkowski: ok, we will add all our events on loco.ubuntu.com

  20:34:55 <itnet7> vojtech_t: you don't have to use LTP to track attending, you can just add the registration url

  20:38:51 <SergioMeneses> czajkowski, and we can share information about the end of the cicle

  20:39:20 <huats> We haven't started yet I think to create the bugs

  20:39:29 <huats> for reapproval

  20:39:36 <huats> it is something that we should

  20:39:44 <czajkowski> ah I thought we had..

  20:39:44 <czajkowski> no ?

  20:39:56 <huats> I could be wrong

  20:40:00 <czajkowski> SergioMeneses: didnt you create the bugs?

  20:40:04 <SergioMeneses> czajkowski, yes

  20:40:11 <SergioMeneses> huats, you can check LP

  20:40:16 <huats> but I don't remember to have received the email bug in LP

  20:40:19 <czajkowski> cool so maybe we should follow up on them now and see how things are progressing

  20:40:24 <huats> that is clearly LP fault

  20:40:30 <czajkowski> eh no mister it is not :p

  20:40:32 <SergioMeneses> huats, check your email

  20:40:37 <czajkowski> are you sure it's not gone to some other folder
