(06:17:29 PM) yharrow: We are by no means bosses of any kind but we would appreciate if our decisions are respected.  We are very open to ideas as is the whole of the open source community. Although, it is impossible to implement every single suggestion that we hear, there is no suggestion too small or not important enough for us to at some point hear and consider.
(06:17:53 PM) yharrow: everyone okay with that?
(06:17:53 PM) knigh1: okay
(06:18:01 PM) ***ausimage full of helpful suggestions ;)

Anchor(members)

(06:19:23 PM) samiam010203: so now, should we get into membership yet?
(06:19:38 PM) yharrow: well yeah
(06:19:45 PM) samiam010203: There are teams out there who boast very high numbers of members.
(06:19:53 PM) yharrow: we are going to discuss how everyone can become an active member
(06:20:00 PM) samiam010203: And while a high number of members is great, what matters most in the long run is the number of 'active' members within a team.
(06:20:00 PM) samiam010203:  Right now we have been blessed or lucky enough to have a ratio of almost 1:1 of enrolled members to active members on our team.
(06:20:02 PM) n8k99: like australia
(06:20:21 PM) samiam010203: However, as the initial excitement of joining the team wears off, we would like you to remember that the team can thrive and flourish only as long as its members remain active.
(06:20:42 PM) samiam010203: so that meens people need to be dedicated to somedegree
(06:20:43 PM) ***ausimage plans on helping for a long time
(06:20:55 PM) samiam010203: A list of things that you can do in order to become and continue to stay an active member is listed on the members page https://www.wiki.ubuntu.com/NewYorkTeam/Members

(06:21:44 PM) samiam010203: This is a great opportunity for all of us to become 'even more' active (those of us here on IRC are already ahead of the game)  if  only for the moment alone.

(07:16:46 PM) samiam010203: Well, perhaps not right away anyways.  But that certainly is our goal.
