18 Czajkowski, JanC, and itnet7 were in Attendance.
19
20 "Approvals"
21
22 Quebec was asked apply for their approval status first. We looked at their Wiki Page, and Web Presence. MagicFab represented his team, and there were many supporters in the channel. We took a vote and all voted +1 for a total of 3. We told MagicFab that we would be having the rest of the council vote after checking the details of the channel log, and the Approval Application/Team Wiki, and Web Site. This is to be handled from this point on the LC ML and we will contact the Teams after the decisions are reached.
23
24 Mexico was up next. They also had a strong presence with their team in the Channel. They are doing a lot of really great things in the community for advocacy, support, and more. Their Wiki needs to reflect all of the activities they were mentioning to us verbally in #ubuntu-meeting. We collectively asked for them to return next month with some revisions to their Wiki, and more details of what they are accomplishing as a team. They were very positive about returning next month.
25
26 "Re-Approval"
27
28 Belgium Team has been doing tremendous work for the Community. Their Re-Approval wiki really highlights their efforts. We took a vote and both
29 Czajkowski and itnet7 voted +1. JanC had to refrain from voting due to being Team Contact.

152 15:18 < czajkowski> MagicFab: popey hutes and itnet7 and keffie-jax

180 15:22 < JanC> huats said he might be late because an important IRL meeting at work
181 15:22 < jono> it seems like there is just not enough members to join
182 15:22 < czajkowski> we still need a 4th I think due to there being 6 of us
183 15:22 < jono> how many members are here?

195 15:23 < jono> that will be a good use of the time
196 15:23 -!- olujicz [~quassel@unaffiliated/olujicz] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["http://quassel-irc.org - Chat comfortably. Anywhere."]
197 15:23 < JanC> maybe if huats shows up later..., we can start to look at the approvals already

204 15:24 < czajkowski> ok

234 15:26 < czajkowski> so who from the Quebec would like to tell us about some of the stuff you've been doing
235 15:26 < czajkowski> ?
236 15:27 < komputes> czajkowski: well Fabian has started the Ubutnu Hour, let him talk about that
237 15:27 < komputes> then I will talk about globaljam
238 15:27 < komputes> MagicFab: floor is yours
239 15:27 -!- dscassel [~dscassel@dsl-207-112-50-223.tor.primus.ca] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
240 15:27 < czajkowski> ok
241 15:27 < czajkowski> sounds good
242 15:27 < swe3tdave> then i will talk about ubuntu drupal
243 15:27 * DuCkNeT rolling the red carpet
244 15:27 < MagicFab> Yes, we've come up with some simple but effective ways to do more with less people
245 15:28 < MagicFab> komputes, and cyphermox here have been stars at the last Global Jam
246 15:28 < MagicFab> and we're gearing up for another good one
247 15:28 < cyphermox> yep :)
248 15:28 < komputes> I was one of the organizers of the first Ubuntu-QC Global Bug Jam last year, and will be organizing the second one this year.
249 15:28 < czajkowski> MagicFab: yes we've even taken a leaf out of you book and running our own. great idae.
250 15:29 * komputes is checking member count for the LoCo
251 15:29 < czajkowski> Idea
252 15:29 < MagicFab> we have great people in Quebec joining our parties - like stgraber (who just made it in the Ubuntu tech board) and all his colleagues from Revolution linux
253 15:29 < itnet7> Your LoCo has done some extraordinary work!!
254 15:29 -!- leoquant [~leoquant@ubuntu/member/leoquant] has quit [Quit: bye]
255 15:29 < czajkowski> yes well done
256 15:29 < MagicFab> I'd say our main activity is social stuff - we network. This was mostly visible during the recent tou.tv advocacy sprint for Ubuntu support of a webtv site
257 15:29 < czajkowski> can you tell me a bit more about that please?
258 15:29 < Snowrunner_QC> that was amazing!
259 15:30 < MagicFab> So the team is small but I believe we have great impact
260 15:30 < komputes> Ubuntu-QC has 89 active members
261 15:30 < MagicFab> well, Radio Canada, state-run TV + broadcast organization launched a huge site for their webtv (40 thounsand+ fans in Facebook)
262 15:30 < JanC> http://www.fabianrodriguez.com/blog/2010/02/10/thank-you-ubuntu-qc-and-facebook/ --> nice work
263 15:30 < MagicFab> well, huge as per our context
264 15:30 -!- rafael_carreras [~quassel@ubuntu/member/rafaelcarreras] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
265 15:31 < MagicFab> unfortunately only Flash, and untested in Linux. Our team list picked that up quickly, organized, and pressured into addressing this.
266 15:31 -!- boredandblogging [~nali@ubuntu/member/boredandblogging] has quit [Quit: leaving]
267 15:31 < komputes> I have found that Quebec is a great place to find people who agree with the free software ideology. With more events we will gather many new members in no time.
268 15:31 < MagicFab> I believe community events and simple, visible, tangible efforts like that bring out the best Ubuntu has to all - we plan on keeping doing that.
269 15:32 < czajkowski> ok so on your roadmap you mention double your numbers, how do you see this happening??
270 15:32 < Snowrunner_QC> I must add that this advocacy is the last event of a long struggle against Radio-canada, their website never was linux friendly.
271 15:32 -!- mongolito404 [~pbuyle@83.101.32.94] has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
272 15:32 < MagicFab> czajkowski, social networking on sites like Facebook, identi.ca, and in-person-events.
273 15:33 < JanC> any plans for events to try to reach people who don't know Ubuntu & open source yet?
274 15:33 < cyphermox> If I may answer that one :)
275 15:33 -!- vish [~Vish@unaffiliated/macvre] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
276 15:33 < czajkowski> sure
277 15:33 < komputes> Word of mouth and events i find are very effecting in having growing numbers in the LoCo
278 15:33 < MagicFab> We also have great visibility in local media - the Ubuntu "regular users" here in Quebec are hiding but we'll find them . Our FB group brought 400 together which is way more than the 89 we have in LP right now.
279 15:33 * DuCkNeT proud to be on ubuntu-qc team for what they have done so far
280 15:33 < cyphermox> Out global jam event is held (and should be again) in a university
281 15:33 < czajkowski> cyphermox: you make channels highlight when I'm not around :)
282 15:33 < MagicFab> So I think double is even low.
283 15:34 < cyphermox> we work with the local LUG and user groups to get this known by a larger body of people
284 15:34 -!- pmatulis [~peter@64.34.151.178] has quit [Quit: leaving]
285 15:34 < cyphermox> I do usually try to get the release parties advertised by local newspapers, but so far without much luck
286 15:34 -!- mongolito404 [~pbuyle@83.101.32.94] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
287 15:35 < czajkowski> cyphermox: very hard to get local paper s involved I find
288 15:35 < cyphermox> indeed
289 15:35 < MagicFab> As you can see ubuntu QC is much more than just me :D
290 15:35 < komputes> We also have many memvers who are part of bugcontrol which helps.
291 15:35 < fetova> thats wonderful, MagicFab :D
292 15:35 < czajkowski> MagicFab: that is is!
293 15:35 < Snowrunner_QC> About release party, they are often in a 3 floors pub, and people always come asking question on the release party floor about ubuntu.
294 15:36 < DuCkNeT> also members in the testing.... <----

388 15:49 < fetova> a permanent work on ubuntu-mx is...
389 15:49 < fetova> get the people together
390 15:50 < jorgevazq> get people's ideas and make them work
391 15:50 < fetova> a lot of people know ubuntu, use ubuntu... spread ubuntu...
392 15:50 < czajkowski> ok and in the past, I'm only seeing 4 events listed
393 15:50 -!- a|wen [~quassel@unaffiliated/awen/x-326362] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
394 15:50 < czajkowski> all in 2008 what happened in 2009
395 15:51 < jorgevazq> in 2009 we had the H1N1 situation
396 15:51 < jorgevazq> which... kinda stopped several events from happening, such as FLISoL
397 15:51 < czajkowski> jorgevazq: why aren't these on the wiki page ?
398 15:52 < czajkowski> were there no other meet ups?
399 15:52 < jorgevazq> some of them were
400 15:52 < jorgevazq> we actually had presence in events in universities, but failed to collect proof
401 15:53 < jorgevazq> besides, the podcast project started in 2009
402 15:53 < JanC> jorgevazq: you can list them without proof too
403 15:53 < jorgevazq> from scratch
404 15:53 < jorgevazq> JanC: didn't know about it ;)
405 15:53 -!- Lex79 [~Alessandr@ubuntu/member/lex79] has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
406 15:54 < fetova> good to know :)
407 15:54 -!- pvandewyngaerde1 [~id984031@90.232-245-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
408 15:54 < JanC> and for the future you can ask people to write (short) reports of such events
409 15:54 -!- pvandewyngaerde [~id984031@90.232-245-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be] has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]
410 15:55 < jorgevazq> JanC: good to know, what happened is that th organizing staff of several events
411 15:55 < czajkowski> yes like add a blog post on an event or an update to your reports
412 15:55 -!- dupondje [~dupondje@83.101.71.129] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
413 15:55 < jorgevazq> such as FESoL, promised to email us the pictures... but haven't had the time to do so
414 15:55 -!- The_Toxic_Mite [~calvinps@host86-136-53-159.range86-136.btcentralplus.com] has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
415 15:56 < jorgevazq> czajkowski: what we were thinking was to mention those activities "on air" in the podcast
416 15:56 < czajkowski> jorgevazq: great idea, don't get me wrong, but it'd be nice to see them listed on the wiki.
417 15:56 < JanC> it doesn't have to be staff, everybody present can make a blog post or whatever
418 15:56 < jamesjedimaster> but it's a good idea to have them on the forum
419 15:56 < jorgevazq> czajkowski: ok, we'll do our best to keep our wiki updated from now on ;)
420 15:57 -!- tremolux [~glasker@pool-71-174-55-121.bstnma.fios.verizon.net] has quit [Quit: Bye]

422 15:57 < jorgevazq> FYI: we do have pictures on FESoL 2009, just failed to put the exact date (is the last event marked)
423 15:57 -!- noy [~Noy@wesnoth/developer/noy] has quit [Quit: noy]
424 15:58 < jorgevazq> anyway... we also had several organizational improvements on 2009
425 15:59 < jorgevazq> an example would be the creation of ubuntu-mx-council, which we believe have helped to quicken the entire process of getting things done
426 15:59 < jorgevazq> ubuntu-mx-council is actually composed by the LoCo Leader (fetova) and 3 team leaders
427 16:00 < jorgevazq> but once other projects take off, then their leaders will also be invited to become part of the council
428 16:00 < itnet7> I would like to see more clearer documentation and some photos, I do think that all of you are dong a good job though
429 16:01 < JanC> ubuntu-mx: we'd like to propose that you come back next month with more activities listed

438 16:02 < jorgevazq> ok, we'll do
