  44 [19:26:07] <_marx_> [TOPIC] Ubuntu Advocacy
  45 [19:27:49] <_marx_> anything to report here people?
  46 [19:27:58] * BugeyeD dabbled in advocacy a bit today by talking to a few "everyday joes" about free desktops
  47 [19:28:45] <BugeyeD> despite being "online" and "on facebook" where plenty of information abounds,
  48 [19:28:51] <magedragon25> anyone that I can bring up the sunject with, I do....most of the time it's fellow students
  49 [19:28:55] <akgraner> I've been asked to have a booth at the goat festival in Spindale, NC (that's all I know at the moment)
  50 [19:29:10] <magedragon25> oops...subject
  51 [19:29:28] <BugeyeD> none of the joes had a clue their pc didn't have to run windows. this discussion started after one complained about a virus and the others started nodding their heads.
  52 [19:29:48] <_marx_> well advocacy at the goat festival
  53 [19:29:49] <BugeyeD> akgraner: was that a misspelling?
  54 [19:29:56] <internalkernel> I finished creating the interface for a Loom, which was based off ubuntu
  55 [19:30:10] <internalkernel> its going to be part of the standard production of these machines now
  56 [19:30:13] <akgraner> nope - goat festival
  57 [19:30:17] <BugeyeD> internalkernel: as in weaving?
  58 [19:30:22] <internalkernel> touch screen interface, no keyboard...
  59 [19:30:30] <internalkernel> yeah, an automated loom
  60 [19:30:30] <BugeyeD> sweet!
  61 [19:30:40] <internalkernel> I believe it's a dobby loom at this point
  62 [19:31:19] <_marx_> [TOPIC] Upcoming opportunities
  63 [19:31:44] <BugeyeD> apparently we have the opportunity to convert a few goats
  64 [19:31:52] <BugeyeD> or at least enlighten them
  65 [19:31:58] <_marx_> we have a release party location booked for pti
  66 [19:32:09] <BugeyeD> woo! where?
  67 [19:32:43] <_marx_> BugeyeD: 4-29 at Foothills
  68 [19:32:48] <akgraner> internalkernel, holstein I think we should have one at Firestorm
  69 [19:33:03] <internalkernel> sounds good to me
  70 [19:33:12] <internalkernel> ill probably be out of town though...
  71 [19:33:31] <nameiner> alinuxfan and JFo and I talked about Raleigh release party last night
  72 [19:33:55] <magedragon25> marx:what time at Foothils?
  73 [19:34:02] <BugeyeD> _marx_ +1
  74 [19:34:04] <_marx_> rdu area right nameiner
  75 [19:34:14] <nameiner> correct _marx_
  76 [19:34:58] <BugeyeD> i'd really like to be where jfo talked about, the saucer i think. will have to find a reason (ubuntu hour?) to go there soon
  77 [19:34:59] <_marx_> magedragon25: i think 7 but i should check
  78 [19:35:08] <magedragon25> ok
  79 [19:35:29] <BugeyeD> magedragon25: you can bring the disco ball.
  80 [19:35:37] <magedragon25> haha....
  81 [19:35:38] <_marx_> jam days folks
  82 [19:36:24] <nameiner> yes, we decided on the Flying Saucer
  83 [19:36:41] <akgraner> nameiner, the Saucer rocks!
  84 [19:36:49] <nameiner> I know akgraner
  85 [19:38:09] <_marx_> so we have release day parties covered
  86 [19:38:33] <BugeyeD> i'll participate in a jam day if at all possible. what are the dates? isn't it a string of three days?
  87 [19:38:52] <_marx_> late march
  88 [19:38:54] <magedragon25> I think we still need a place for jam days
  89 [19:39:24] <_marx_> magedragon25: yes for us in pti area
  90 [19:39:31] <BugeyeD> agreed.
  91 [19:39:45] <magedragon25> anyone ask at foothills or krankies?
  92 [19:39:49] <BugeyeD> the one in carrboro (thanks bac) worked out great, but it was a bit far for me
  93 [19:40:09] <akgraner> I am sure we'll do something in WNC..
  94 [19:42:01] <_marx_> global jam things need to get firmed up pretty quick
  95 [19:42:19] <magedragon25> yeah
  96 [19:44:05] <BugeyeD> krankies might work for pti, but i'm not sure about foothills. unless we can have a room there, and i don't even know if they have wifi.
  97 [19:44:19] <BugeyeD> wifi is a necessity, and i don't have a mifi.
  98 [19:45:15] <_marx_> family friendly
  99 [19:45:20] <magedragon25> I've seen a room the one time I went to foothills, and I hear thay have wifi....but how big of a room do we need
 100 [19:46:03] <BugeyeD> i've been in rooms at foothills (one up and one down) and they are plenty big unless you have over say 20 people.
 101 [19:46:13] <_marx_> magedragon25: i've reserved the room at street level to the right
 102 [19:46:20] <magedragon25> ok
 103 [19:46:56] <_marx_> [TOPIC] Team Approval
 104 [19:47:05] <BugeyeD> i approve of this team
 105 [19:47:52] <internalkernel> +1
 106 [19:48:01] <magedragon25> +1
 107 [19:48:11] <BugeyeD> i'm not aware of any headway being made in the approval process, just that we're trying to more or less get stuff ready to start the process
 108 [19:48:50] <BugeyeD> akgraner would likely know more, as she has contact with some of those types of folks that might actually do the approving ...
 109 [19:50:09] <_marx_> current sandbox
 110 [19:50:42] <akgraner> BugeyeD, we can get a couple people to look at the sandbox _marx_ is referring to..
 111 [19:51:05] <akgraner> we need to include some pics from some of the events.. I'll link a few blog posts from some the events to it
 112 [19:52:00] <nameiner> I have pics from the last release party
 113 [19:52:36] <BugeyeD> i've been to several ubuntu days and completely forgot about taking pictures.
 114 [19:52:45] <BugeyeD> i've tried to document them, though.
 115 [19:53:27] <BugeyeD> i'll try to work on wiki format this weekend.
 116 [19:53:53] <akgraner> so any events any of us have written/documented we need to put links on the approval wiki
 117 [19:56:37] <BugeyeD> okay, where's the approval page?
 118 [19:56:54] <BugeyeD> is that the roadmap page?
 119 [19:57:11] <_marx_> sandbox
 120 [19:57:53] <BugeyeD> i created sandbox so that i could mess with formatting without screwing up any of the official pages. has that become the approval page?
 121 [19:58:14] <akgraner> _marx_, can you just rename sandbox to something like NCApprovalPage
 122 [19:58:20] <_marx_> BugeyeD: no
 123 [19:58:28] <akgraner> or just create it..
 124 [19:59:17] <magedragon25> sorry....didn't realize my hour ran out...had to change my mac
 125 [19:59:41] <_marx_> okay we're at the new goal of one hour
 126 [19:59:53] <BugeyeD> magedragon25: heh. you at krankies?
 127 [19:59:57] <magedragon25> yeah
 128 [20:00:09] <BugeyeD> awesome. may meet you there next time.
 129 [20:00:10] <magedragon25> what did i misss
 130 [20:00:14] <magedragon25> ok
 131 [20:00:33] <_marx_> [agreed] to new council definitions
