    <ascenseur> o/

    <mattt> o/

    <theopensourcerer> I'm your chairman for this session and will attempt to keep the meeting flowing at a good pace and free of ramblings etc.

    <Yorvyk> o/

    <theopensourcerer> I'll be running through the order of Agenda items listed on the wiki page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeamMeetingAgenda as they are displayed.

    <theopensourcerer> When a person is explaining their topic item, please let them finish before you start to ask questions or make any comments. If you have any comments on items please try and keep it relevant to the topic that is being discussed. Please do not keep interrupting the chair or people explaining action items, failure to do so will mean you will be asked to leave.

    <theopensourcerer> So without further ado:

    <theopensourcerer> [TOPIC] theopensourcerer - review of action items from last meeting

theopensourcerer - review of action items from last meeting

  • <theopensourcerer> I saw 4 on the last minutes.

    <theopensourcerer> Postpone daubers update on support guidelines till he is back

    <theopensourcerer> Is he back yet?

    <theopensourcerer> Anyone know?

    <theopensourcerer> Nope. OK.

    <MichealH> theopensourcerer: If he isnt here then no.

    <theopensourcerer> AlanBell kick off a discussion on the mailing list/IRC/Forum re installfests

    <AlanBell> he is back, and arranged a meeting date

    <theopensourcerer> Ahh

    <theopensourcerer> Any further info AlanBell

    <AlanBell> done that, we have discussed installfests

    <AlanBell> working on the poster for them, lacks approved logos, which we will discuss later

    <theopensourcerer> OK.

    <theopensourcerer> Daviey to create UGJ event on the LD for the UK LoCo

    <theopensourcerer> Whatever that means.

    <theopensourcerer> Daviey: is on hols is he not?

    <AlanBell> Ubuntu Global Jam

    <AlanBell> Loco Directory

    <popey> LD is http://loco.ubuntu.com/

  • <AlanBell> http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/285/detail/

    <MichealH> theopensourcerer: Seems so.

    <AlanBell> are the two global jam events on the directory for -uk

    <theopensourcerer> Excellent.

    <popey> anyone can add events to the LD

    <candtalan> hi, just arrived alan cocks

    <AlanBell> o/ candtalan

    <theopensourcerer> The final action from the last meeting: AlanBell create a poll to pick the new logo for UK LoCo so it can be submitted to the CC for approval

    <AlanBell> right, been working on this

    <AlanBell> if you have chrome or chromium you can have a look here (don't vote yet) http://pollka.libertus.co.uk/

    <AlanBell> if you vote now, your vote will be deleted, feel free to try it, but don't expect it to count

    <popey> are you planning on requesting approval from Canonical first?

    <popey> i.e. what if the one we vote for is rejected by Canonical?

    <AlanBell> I will fix it in Firefox, I was hoping to get it on the ubuntu-uk.org server

    <AlanBell> popey: well I was hoping to vote for one, then put it forward to canonical

    <AlanBell> rather than put loads forward to canonical then vote

    <AlanBell> have I got it backwards?

    <popey> well I just wondered what happens if they reject the one we pick

    <AlanBell> we think again

    <MichealH> popey: Have a backup?

    <theopensourcerer> When do you think you will be in a position to start the poll proper?

    <theopensourcerer> I'd hope that Canonical might suggest ways to make it "compliant".

    <brunogirin> AlanBell: what about keeping the 2 with the highest votes and if Canonical don't like the first one suggest the second one?

    <MichealH> brunogirin: What I thought

    <AlanBell> If we are OK with the vote being conducted on my server then we can start the poll as soon as you like

    <AlanBell> if it is to go on the Ubuntu-uk.org server that might take a little longer

    <MichealH> AlanBell: I dont care where we vote. I just Wanna vote!

    <MichealH> Big Grin :)

    <theopensourcerer> OK - Seems like we are nearly there. Suggest you discuss a little further and then let it rip.

    <popey> yup, dont think it matters where the vote happens

    <AlanBell> I want to put it up for a couple of days to let everyone see the options and suggest additional options on the list before opening voting

    <theopensourcerer> I think we role the action to nect meeting.

    <brunogirin> as long as it works for FF Smile :-)

    <AlanBell> ok, I will fix it in Firefox and mail the list

    <theopensourcerer> [ACTION] AlanBell organise poll to pick the new logo for UK LoCo so it can be submitted to the CC for approval
