(Have to read up on that) Nov 14 20:30:47 <jacob> ^ like that idea Nov 14 20:30:54 <theidiotthatisme> o0splitpaw01: Good idea Nov 14 20:31:04 <jacob> couple GB of data, but I like it Nov 14 20:31:09 <seisen> add it to the wiki Nov 14 20:31:20 <jacob> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OhioTeam/OhioUbucon08 Nov 14 20:31:33 <jacob> actually, so i don't have to keep pasting it Nov 14 20:31:34 <o0splitpaw01> ok.

Nov 14 20:33:03 <theidiotthatisme> But if Google decides to sponsor on that day, especially for a place to host it, it may be Nov 14 20:33:15 <theidiotthatisme> jacob: Yes, vorian has already contacted Google Nov 14 20:33:21 <jacob> there's always the threat of vacation (hehe) but I'm probably free Nov 14 20:33:27 <theidiotthatisme> but a while ago, and I think he is doing so again Nov 14 20:33:38 <theidiotthatisme> That would be my vacation lol Nov 14 20:34:17 <tnseditor> so, is there a Google office in Columbus? Nov 14 20:34:29 <jacob> didn't think so.... but.... Nov 14 20:34:32 * jacob googles google Nov 14 20:34:34 <PTelly> when I last checked with our Parish Admin we could have Ubucon @ the church.
