Jun 23 19:37:10 <BugeyeD> homeschool 2009/2010 is just getting ramped up around here. my wife is getting plugged in (this is our first year). i hope to start talking to folks about qimo and feeling them out for how else they can be helped with foss, but this will take some time. Jun 23 19:37:17 <akgraner> I talked to a couple libraries and they were excited about having Cd' Jun 23 19:37:25 <akgraner> cd's and fliers in them Jun 23 19:37:41 <akgraner> BugeyeD, Great!!! Jun 23 19:38:06 <bgryderclock> In a talk at SELF, Ryan "Icculus" Gordon talked about a "buy a MacBook get a free Ipod" poster. he asked where are the "want free games and a word processor that doesn't suck.. Try Linux" posters. Perhaps we could create some posters like that and blanket NC campuses with them. Jun 23 19:38:08 <akgraner> BugeyeD, let us know when you kick that off so we make sure we get it on our lists... Jun 23 19:38:44 <BugeyeD> np. i'm already talking to some folks, but don't yet know really where to start because i don't know the organization yet. Jun 23 19:39:16 <akgraner> bgryderclock, sounds like an idea - do the ubuntu marketing folks have anything like that yet? does anyone know? Jun 23 19:39:24 <BugeyeD> i've contacted sheetz hq (the gas station/food store) but have yet to talk to a real person. just canned messages so far. Jun 23 19:39:40 <BugeyeD> i've also contacted lowes foods, more of the same. Jun 23 19:40:02 <akgraner> BugeyeD, you are on the ball... let us know how all that goes... Jun 23 19:40:05 <akgraner> Smile :-) Jun 23 19:40:11 <BugeyeD> next on my list is redbox, because folks expect to pick up dvds there - figure it's worth a shot. Jun 23 19:40:34 <akgraner> [idea] posters... Jun 23 19:40:36 <MootBot> IDEA received: posters... Jun 23 19:41:07 <akgraner> all the community colleges are linked as well... so that is a place to start too...

Jun 23 19:42:53 <akgraner> [idea] bookstores/coffee shops Jun 23 19:42:54 <MootBot> IDEA received: bookstores/coffee shops Jun 23 19:43:10 <akgraner> pak33m, I can see we really need an idea page..:-) Jun 23 19:43:17 <BugeyeD> no kidding Jun 23 19:43:22 <pak33m> oh yeah Jun 23 19:44:20 <akgraner> [idea] non-profits Jun 23 19:44:21 <MootBot> IDEA received: non-profits Jun 23 19:44:25 <pak33m> thats why i mentioned a project page for your team at least Jun 23 19:44:27 <BugeyeD> would the idea page be a wiki that i could edit if/when i get anywhere with any of these contacts? Jun 23 19:44:48 <akgraner> if you know of a cause that you are personally passionate about.. see what they need... Jun 23 19:45:03 <akgraner> see if you can help them or if you can't put them in touch with someone who can... Jun 23 19:45:38 <akgraner> an non-profit you don't care about will fall off your radar but if you care about it.. the you can combine two things and go from there... Jun 23 19:45:50 <akgraner> make sense... Jun 23 19:46:23 <pak33m> something along the idea (no pun) of http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/ Jun 23 19:46:31 <pak33m> for an idea page that is Jun 23 19:46:37 * Citizenjoefriday (n=Joe@adsl-070-145-232-086.sip.int.bellsouth.net) has joined #ubuntu-us-nc Jun 23 19:47:09 <akgraner> ahh..ok Jun 23 19:47:25 <akgraner> so anything else.. on this front before I move on to the logo?

Jun 23 19:47:38 <pak33m> s Jun 23 19:47:47 <pak33m> and idea page that is Jun 23 19:48:03 <akgraner> pak33m, oh that would be great... hmm when in the next loco teams meeting?

Jun 23 19:49:08 <akgraner> aything else before I move on? Jun 23 19:49:26 <akgraner> [topic] logo Jun 23 19:49:27 <MootBot> New Topic: logo Jun 23 19:49:48 <akgraner> so here is the basic idea the majority of folks wanted... Jun 23 19:49:49 <akgraner> http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=17577806624&ref=ts#/photo.php?pid=265993&o=all&op=1&view=all&subj=17577806624&aid=-1&id=1517809393&oid=17577806624 Jun 23 19:49:50 <MootBot> LINK received: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=17577806624&ref=ts#/photo.php?pid=265993&o=all&op=1&view=all&subj=17577806624&aid=-1&id=1517809393&oid=17577806624 Jun 23 19:50:49 <pak33m> akgraner: dont want to get you all off topic but i wanted to say thanks for letting me hang out with you all again. gotta pay attention to my kids now. ttyl Jun 23 19:50:50 <akgraner> it needs some simplifying but those minus the stamper, keep the stamp on the state and use Tux... Jun 23 19:51:00 <akgraner> pak33m, thanks for coming... Jun 23 19:51:04 <akgraner> anytime Jun 23 19:51:34 <pak33m> akgraner: let me know if you need help with team stuff Jun 23 19:51:34 <akgraner> any comments? Jun 23 19:51:46 <akgraner> pak33m, I will I promise Jun 23 19:51:48 <akgraner> Smile :-) Jun 23 19:52:32 <akgraner> any comments on the logo? Jun 23 19:52:42 <bgryderclock> i like it, perhaps tux could hold the stamper? Jun 23 19:53:15 <akgraner> bgryderclock, oh that would be good.. Jun 23 19:53:34 <akgraner> we'll see what we can get someone to do for us on that..:-) Jun 23 19:53:48 <bgryderclock> like "I, the Linux mascot, PWND the state for ubuntu" Jun 23 19:53:55 <BugeyeD> i think it's too busy for some uses Jun 23 19:54:24 <akgraner> yes..that's why it will be simplified for things like..banners t-shirts etc... Jun 23 19:54:31 <akgraner> Smile :-) Jun 23 19:54:33 <BugeyeD> shrinking it down to a size useful for shortcuts (ie web page logos) would make it useless Jun 23 19:54:45 <BugeyeD> that'd make a cool t-shirt Smile :) Jun 23 19:54:58 <BugeyeD> cafepress anyone? Jun 23 19:55:07 <akgraner> so those are the symbols everyone wanted though... Jun 23 19:55:12 <akgraner> cafepress is cool.. Jun 23 19:55:37 <akgraner> anything else about the logo... Jun 23 19:55:53 <bgryderclock> perhaps Tux standing on the state with a ubuntu flag... Jun 23 19:56:13 <bgryderclock> like" i claims this state in the name of ubunut." Jun 23 19:56:21 <bgryderclock> *ubuntu Jun 23 19:56:30 <jfrorie> I'm wondering if the red stamp is a good idea Jun 23 19:56:47 <BugeyeD> all your tarheels are belong to us Jun 23 19:56:55 <jfrorie> it doesn;t reenforce the logo. It creates a new one. Jun 23 19:57:18 <jfrorie> Maybe he should stamp the same logo that on the stomach Jun 23 19:57:27 <akgraner> well there is another stamp that is the ubuntu logo Jun 23 19:57:35 <akgraner> that is the one I was going to ask to be used Jun 23 19:57:37 <jfrorie> Maybe make the stamp a little crackled to make it look like a stamp. Jun 23 19:58:17 <jfrorie> From a marketing standpoint, you don't want to create a bunch of logo variations. It confuses people. Jun 23 19:58:48 <bgryderclock> yeah, i'm just shooting out ideas... Jun 23 19:58:51 <akgraner> jfrorie, yep...that's why I was going to stick with the normal logo Jun 23 19:59:16 <akgraner> and those colors..but the general idea was people liked the stamp idea..:-) Jun 23 20:00:00 <bgryderclock> i like the stamp idea too Jun 23 20:00:31 <jfrorie> I like the stamp. Jun 23 20:00:38 <akgraner> so I was thinking to have to logo in place by 1 August, 2009 Jun 23 20:01:23 <akgraner> however if someone else wants to take that link and run with it... my time will be limited until August.. Jun 23 20:01:59 <akgraner> would love to turn that over to someone... Jun 23 20:02:04 <jfrorie> I suck at drawing. I can only plagerize and change colors Sad :( Jun 23 20:02:17 <akgraner> Sad :-( Jun 23 20:02:54 <akgraner> I'm feeling you're pain... Jun 23 20:03:16 <akgraner> ok so can we move on to the next topic? Jun 23 20:03:42 <akgraner> [action] finalize logo have in place by 1 Aug, 2009 Jun 23 20:03:43 <MootBot> ACTION received: finalize logo have in place by 1 Aug, 2009 Jun 23 20:04:03 <akgraner> [topic] Karmic Release parties...

Jun 23 20:06:58 <BugeyeD> how many showed at the saucer last time? Jun 23 20:07:11 <jfrorie> From my standpoint, we need some lessor events in charlotte to get people together. I will lead, but I haven;t had any takers. Jun 23 20:07:14 <akgraner> 15 to 20 I think... Jun 23 20:07:25 <BugeyeD> i've heard good things about the saucer in charlotte ...

Jun 23 20:11:22 <BugeyeD> despite traffic, i'll be there if i can. unless it's race day, then the traffic is impossible. Jun 23 20:11:34 <jfrorie> There is NO traffic on it. The UNCClug admin doesn;t even respond. Jun 23 20:12:14 <bgryderclock> i tried to get on it. Jun 23 20:12:38 <akgraner> jfrorie, so can you do the leg work on a meet and greet in your area...and send out the info to the mailing list here... Jun 23 20:13:04 <BugeyeD> (sorry, was talking about me navigating automobile traffic to show up at the meet-n-greet, not the list) Jun 23 20:13:48 <jfrorie> bgryderclock, which list did you try to get on?
