We would use the library, or do you think we might have more space in the Gallery? <dthomasdigital> deinerson1 good question <deinerson1> In the library we could actually be on the lan as opposed to wireless <genfool> for lan party, still have room out the side door if needed? <genfool> I mean in library <jimrz> release date = 4/23, so are we planning a separate party for maybe the 1st or 2nd weekend in May <dthomasdigital> I say library we have the outside. <dthomasdigital> If we have it in may I might have some media ready better than usual <deinerson1> yes, from library some could go out and smoke or lounge <genfool> :) <protonchris> jimrz: That would be best for me. The end of april is pretty busy for me. <dthomasdigital> It be nice to do it on the release date, but May looks better for me too <deinerson1> EPC calendar is wide open for May <jimrz> anybody had any more ideas / preferences for type of location for the release party? <dthomasdigital> I'll add the May idea to the next meetings agenda page and give tritium a chance to give his thougths <protonchris> IIRC, his baby is due around the beginning of May. So he might be MIA <jimrz> oops * Doomcat has quit ("IM AH FIRIN MAH LAZOR!!!!!!!!!!I shall vanish for now...................(evil lagh happens)") <genfool> Can we set up a table and have the baby at the release party? <jimrz> sure can <dthomasdigital> Only if it's born on release day <genfool> :) <protonchris> It certainly would be a first. <protonchris> Shall we move on? <dthomasdigital> +1 <jimrz> ok <protonchris> Ok, next item is dthomasdigital's <genfool> Who wants to share the idea with tritium wife <genfool> +1 <dthomasdigital> Well they are updating the LoCo Directory and we need to send then our info, just wanted to make sure the Council voted on it before I do <jimrz> +1 <protonchris> +1 <dthomasdigital> +1 <dthomasdigital> is that a majority <protonchris> yeah. <dthomasdigital> cool I gather the info and get it sent <dthomasdigital> next item? <protonchris> Last item is the website. We have a decision to make <protonchris> In order to use the openid/launchpad integration with drupal, the webhost has to support php-ssl. Birdhouse does not and it doesn't seem like they want to install it. <protonchris> Choices: <protonchris> 1) Stay with birdhouse and not use openid/launchpad integration <protonchris> 2) Leave birdhouse and hope canonical comes though <dthomasdigital> I talk to tritium the other day and it looks like they are moving on are canonical hosting <protonchris> Cool. <dthomasdigital> I don't know the whole story but it looks better than it did <protonchris> We could have both (birdhouse and canonical) and decide which one we like better. <protonchris> Birdhouse will probably have better support, but canonical will have openid/launchpad integration. <genfool> protonchris, what is your best suggestion? <dthomasdigital> Hey now your thinking <protonchris> I suggest that we try out both and decide what is the most important to us. <genfool> +1 <dthomasdigital> +1 <jimrz> +1 <protonchris> I am pretty sure tritium is on board with this suggestion as well. <protonchris> deinerson1: ? <protonchris> kenneth: ? <deinerson1> +1 <protonchris> anyone else I am missing? <dthomasdigital> Ok to wrap up Lan party april 11th at EPC. Release party in May Jim you still on that? <deinerson1> I like using canonical rather than birdhouse <jimrz> yes, sir <deinerson1> +1 on LAN party <protonchris> deinerson1: Are you still ok with trying both out before deciding? <dthomasdigital> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewMexicoTeam/JauntyJackalope release party info page <dthomasdigital> Should I make on for the LAN party? <jimrz> couldn't hurt <jimrz> what time for LAN party? <dthomasdigital> I'll make them on the same page. Get my coding on. <protonchris> dthomasdigital: could you list the games we will most likely play. That way we can have them installed before we show up. <genfool> Think so for documentation, hate to ask as you do so much <dthomasdigital> Perfect protonchris perfect <protonchris> dthomasdigital: we spent a lot of time downloading on software freedom day :) <dthomasdigital> I spent al ot of time getting killed. <protonchris> dthomasdigital: that part was awesome. <genfool> roflmao <dthomasdigital> :p <dthomasdigital> Well is that all for official stuff? <dthomasdigital> Again I want to say a huge thank you to deinerson1, great work. <protonchris> Agreed <protonchris> deinerson1: well done. <genfool> :) :) :) Yea Dave, you ROCK! <protonchris> I was getting concerned that a RMA was in our future. <deinerson1> yay! <protonchris> deinerson1: did you see my question above? <deinerson1> the 11th? <protonchris> deinerson1: Are you still ok with trying both out before deciding? <deinerson1> sure <protonchris> wrt hosting and your preference to canonical <protonchris> to -> for <protonchris> Cool. <protonchris> I am all out of business. <protonchris> Anyone else have business? <protonchris> or general questions? <genfool> Small group tonight, seemed productive <dthomasdigital> back had to go do something sorry <deinerson1> A real upper: I watched a new laptop get 500 KB/s on the epc-open-mesh network and that was for a large (27 MB) file. <jimrz> nice <deinerson1> the older network cards easily stay above 150 KB/s <dthomasdigital> sounds like the mesh is coming together pretty good thanks to your hard work <deinerson1> I am just happy for the patient residents. I have been expressing how fast that is by comparing it to the wired network at my former work, which topped out at 150 KB/s.
