18:59 < BugeyeD> good, you can swim
18:59 < BugeyeD> ignoring new stuff, this should be a quickie meeting. at least according to the agenda.
18:59 < BugeyeD> we ready?
18:59 < holstein> yup
19:00 < BugeyeD> the only thing i know of that's outstanding from last month ...
19:00 < BugeyeD> [TOPIC] Open Action Items: (holstein) document meeting chair schedule
19:00 < Mootbot-UK> New Topic:  Open Action Items: (holstein) document meeting chair schedule

19:00 < holstein> i sent out to the list just now
19:00 < _marx_> linkage
19:00 < holstein> i added the list and order to
19:00 < holstein> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NorthCarolinaTeam/Meeting/Agenda/MeetingChairAgendaPlanningPage
19:00 < BugeyeD> cool, thx
19:01 < holstein> we can make a separate one if needed
19:01 < holstein> but i figure since its just a few of us
19:01 < holstein> and we'll be looking at that page anyways
19:01 < BugeyeD> works for me
19:01 < akgraner> +1 from me
19:01 < BugeyeD> +!
19:02 < BugeyeD> uh, i hate the shift key ...
19:02 < BugeyeD> +1

19:02 < holstein> :)
19:02 < _marx_> +1
19:02 < holstein> and if somebody new wants to pop in there
19:02 < holstein> go for it
19:02 < _marx_> wait no vote called
19:02 < BugeyeD> do we need to vote? it was an action item to make a list. he made a list.
19:02 < holstein> yeah, we might not need to
19:02 < holstein> we can
19:03 < akgraner> vote for what?
19:03 < holstein> but i said i would do it last time
19:03 < akgraner> I thought we voted that we wanted people to do it last time
19:03 < holstein> and it was voted in then as a package
19:03 < akgraner> nods
19:04 < BugeyeD> so this is just closure. right?
19:04 < akgraner> yep
19:04 < _marx_> ditto
19:04 < akgraner> the action item from the last vote
19:04 < BugeyeD> anything else that was an action item that didn't actually  make it onto the agenda?
19:05 < akgraner> well nothing from last time - but something that came up yesterday
19:05 < BugeyeD> [TOPIC] New Items:
19:05 < Mootbot-UK> New Topic:  New Items:
19:05 < akgraner> So if you go to the wiki pages and change your preferences to the "light" theme
19:06 < holstein> akgraner: personal pages?
19:06 < akgraner> all pages
19:06 < holstein> ok
19:06 < akgraner> this is the view starting on the 13th
19:06 < _marx_> user preferences on the wiki
19:06 < akgraner> the wiki's get the new theme next week
19:06 < holstein> is there anything we need to do?
19:06 < BugeyeD> does this get rolled out automatically? are you suggesting we go ahead and change just to see it?
19:06 < holstein> in preperation?
19:07 < _marx_> it's pretty ugly currently
19:07 < akgraner> I just wanted everyone to be prepared
19:07 < akgraner> that we may have to fix things
19:07 < holstein> cool
19:07 < holstein> Sgiomlaireachd: you still around?
19:07 < BugeyeD> i believe moinmoin has a method of dictating a theme for a given page. 
19:08 < akgraner> yes - but - after the 13th the default will be the light theme
19:08 < BugeyeD> [TOPIC] New Items: new 'light' theme rolled out on the 13th, check all team pages for breakage
19:08 < Mootbot-UK> New Topic:  New Items: new 'light' theme rolled out on the 13th, check all team pages for breakage
19:08 < akgraner> go to user preferences and change the theme and you'll see how it's going to look
19:08 < holstein> great heads up akgraner  :)
19:09 < Sgiomlaireachd> yes i am
19:09 < holstein> cool, just making sure you get counted present if you want to be Sgiomlaireachd
19:10 < akgraner> also I wanted to mention lets start thinking about goals for the -n cycle
19:10 < BugeyeD> hmm ... changing theme yields internal server error ...
19:10 < akgraner> UDS is the last week of the month
19:10 < holstein> :/
19:10 < akgraner> BugeyeD, refresh and you should be able to see it
19:10 < akgraner> that happened to me yesterday when I changed my preferences as well
19:11 < BugeyeD> looks like it's going to time out. i think everyone on the planet followed your suggestion. right now.
19:11 < BugeyeD> um, ewww ...
19:11  * _marx_ chuckles
19:11 < BugeyeD> so far i'm not a fan
19:11 < BugeyeD> it's colored like a retro kitchen
19:11 < akgraner> exactly
19:12 < _marx_> me neither
19:12 < akgraner> things like lines in the table and lines between sections aren't there anymore
19:12 < BugeyeD> definitely does not jive with our light blue stuff
19:12 < akgraner> nods
19:12 < BugeyeD> you're right, borders are missing
19:12 < akgraner> so I was thinking one of the goals for the -n cycle would be updating the wikis to go with the new theme
19:12 < _marx_> dang i thought that was a purple ;)
19:13 < BugeyeD> so is this a work in progress?
19:13 < holstein> we just got our light blue stuff :/
19:13 < akgraner> BugeyeD, yep
19:13 < holstein> eh
19:13 < akgraner> wikis are always a work in progress
19:13 < BugeyeD> good. so hopefully it'll get somewhat better (borders back) by itself.
19:13 < holstein> i dont think its all that bad
19:13 < BugeyeD> it's almost the color of circus peanuts
19:14 < BugeyeD> okay, plenty of work to get our colors re-coordinated.
19:14 < BugeyeD> anything else to add to the agenda?
19:14 < akgraner> -n team goals
19:15 < BugeyeD> [TOPIC] New Items: -n team goals
19:15 < Mootbot-UK> New Topic:  New Items: -n team goals
19:15 < adam_vollrath> what page are y'all looking at?
19:15 < adam_vollrath> er were looking at
19:15 < akgraner> we need to think about what we want to accomplish during the 11.04 release cycle
19:15 < BugeyeD> i'm just looking at our own team pages after having changed the theme to 'light'
19:15 < akgraner> adam_vollrath, our team wikis but you have to go under user preferences and change the theme to the 'light' theme
19:16 < BugeyeD> adam_vollrath: which means you have to log in.
19:16 < adam_vollrath> o
19:16 < adam_vollrath> nevermind thanx
19:16 < akgraner> hehe
19:16 < BugeyeD> without logging in and setting your own preference, you get the default which has not yet been changed
19:16 < BugeyeD> (thankfully)
19:17 < BugeyeD> akgraner: suggested goals?
19:17 < akgraner> yeah - wiki page updates :-)
19:17 < BugeyeD> my goal is to keep my chin above water
19:17 < akgraner> also a way to distribute the CD's around the team
19:17 < BugeyeD> [TOPIC] -n team goals: wiki page updates, color coordination, etc.
19:17 < Mootbot-UK> New Topic:  -n team goals: wiki page updates, color coordination, etc.
19:18 < akgraner> we need to try and list what events we as a team want to participate in during that cycle
19:18 < holstein> maybe we can have a devide and conquer kind of IRC attack on the wikis sometime soon
19:18 < BugeyeD> do you guys do ubuntu hour together? that'd be my suggestion for cd distribution
19:18 < akgraner> sounds like a great plan for say a Global Jam :-)
19:18 < holstein> sure
19:19 < akgraner> BugeyeD, I meant  - to get them to you all in the Winston area, to holstein et all in the Asheville area and others
19:19 < holstein> akgraner: you get them?
19:19 -!- Italian_Plumber [~Italian_P@38.121.44.17] has joined #ubuntu-us-nc
19:19 < holstein> the discs?
19:19 < BugeyeD> akgraner: exactly. come back to winston and have a cup'o'joe with us   :D
19:19 < akgraner> POC for the various areas based on the events people are attending etc
19:19 < holstein> i go that way go that way often enough
19:19 < holstein> if you get some to me
19:20 < holstein> i can get them to someone who would meet me
19:20  * holstein was out in raliegh a couple weeks ago
19:20  * BugeyeD will be there monday
19:21 < akgraner> so I would say - for the next meeting we work on 1 - list of events people will be attending  2- who needs pressed CD's vs burned cd's vs usb 
keys
19:21 < akgraner> 2 - game plan for attacking the wikis
19:21 < holstein> i like it
19:22 < akgraner> 3- a simple way to get the word out in each of our areas about Ubuntu
19:22 < akgraner> (start simple then add to it)
19:22 < holstein> maybe just the FB page

19:23 < akgraner> nothing is set in stone and if other people have cool ideas then we just need to get them added and acted upon
19:24  * holstein wants a USB key :/
19:24 < holstein> i didnt realize that was an option
19:24  * BugeyeD does too
19:24 < akgraner> but lets have a UDS-N goals landing area - so we can all see what people are wanting or working on and can decide what and where they would li
ke to help
