    <MichealH> [TOPIC] AlanBell - Team Logo

  • <AlanBell> right, so this is going well

  • <AlanBell> http://pollka.libertus.co.uk/

    <AlanBell> we have been voting on the logo for a week, the vote closed on tuesday

    <AlanBell> the winning option was number 8

    <MichealH> Yay!

    <Ricey> fine result

    <MichealH> I voted on that

    <Monotoko> excellent Smile :)

    <AlanBell> having checked the rules the circle of friends was a fraction too close to the other bits so I adjusted that and submitted this:

  • <AlanBell> http://people.ubuntu.com/~alanbell/uuk/uuklogopaths.svg

    <MichealH> And AlanBell What is the fallback logo?

    <AlanBell> to the trademark team at Canonical to make it an approved LoCo logo

    <MichealH> So its approved?

    <MichealH> Yipee

    <mattt> looks great, thanks for the effort in getting that logo put together

    <AlanBell> not approved yet, I have had no response

  • <AlanBell> http://pollka.libertus.co.uk/results.php

    <Monotoko> the fallback seems to be the Union Jack logo?

    <Ricey> it is a fine lgog, thanks for your efforts from me

    <AlanBell> that is the list of responses (although I think a couple of extra votes arrived after I counted them

    <MichealH> Yeah

    <MichealH> Anyone have anything else to say before we move on?

    <AlanBell> I am pretty confident that logo will get approved, there isn't really anything controversial about it

    <czajkowski> can take trademarks some time to respond

    <MichealH> czajkowski: Yeah It took me 2 weeks

    <sam898889> where is it?

    <sam898889> oh found it

    <AlanBell> yeah, I am hoping they approve before Maverick release

    <AlanBell> ok, I am done on this topic MichealH

    <sam898889> nice alanbell Big Grin :)

    <MichealH> Anyone have anything else?

    <MichealH> No?

    <MichealH> [TOPIC] Daviey and MichealH - Website

Daviey and MichealH - Website

  • <MichealH> I dont know If Daviey is at his desk

    <MichealH> We havent heard of the website recently

    <MichealH> Daviey: ping

    <Monotoko> Seems he isn't, can this be done without him?

    <MichealH> Okay, Lets move on and If he replys then we can add it to the end

    <MichealH> [TOPIC] daubers - Improving Support

daubers - Improving Support

  • <MichealH> daubers: Youre up

    <AlanBell> ooh, this is going to be a short meeting

    <MichealH> AlanBell: Yup

    <Ricey> hehe

    <MichealH> [TOPIC] 10.10.10 Release Party

10.10.10 Release Party

  • <Monotoko> very short, I shall have to add some things to the next agenda Smile :)

    <MichealH> Monotoko: Great!

    <AlanBell> ok, there is a release party in the planning for London

    <Monotoko> I was thinking of having a release party up in the Leeds area?

    <sam898889> 10.10? on the 10.10.10?

    <Monotoko> for those of us that cant get to London

    <mattt> AlanBell: ping me if you need help w/ anything (or let whoever is organizing know)

  • <AlanBell> http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/307/detail/

    <MichealH> sam898889: Yup

    <AlanBell> Monotoko: great, do add it to the loco directory if you do

    <Ricey> Monotoko, a central/northern party would get my vote

    <MichealH> sam898889: The perfect 10

    <AlanBell> so that one in London isn't the canonical organised one

    <MichealH> Ricey: Mine too

    <sam898889> MichealH, indeed. can i come?

    <Monotoko> Ricey, I will see what I can do with settings on up Smile :)

    <AlanBell> I *think* it is being organised by John Rocket

    <MichealH> sam898889: Im not organising

    <Ricey> Monotoko, nice Smile :)

    <sam898889> MichealH, do u know who is ???

    <mattt> AlanBell: does jr0cket use irc?

    <MichealH> sam898889: Ask AlanBell after the meeting

    <AlanBell> mattt: don't know, I emailed him earlier asking about it

    <sam898889> MichealH, thanks.

    <mattt> AlanBell: k, thanks

    <MichealH> Okay Anyone else wanna say anything else before we move on?

    <AlanBell> Canonical have been in communication asking what we are doing for release parties

    <AlanBell> they seem to be thinking about something, normally it is announced rather late

    <MichealH> AlanBell: Installfests

    <Monotoko> Installfests + Pub

    <Ricey> Pub + Installfests

    <AlanBell> yeah, the installfests are a great idea for a during-the-day activity on the sunday

    <MichealH> Monotoko: I wouldnt be able to attend then :

    <MichealH> *:(

    <AlanBell> but organising a separate pub type party in London to the Canonical one (if there is one) could be a bit of a washout

    <Monotoko> MichealH, Maybe we could organize a seperate pub day

    <AlanBell> installfests also don't have an age limit on them which is handy for our younger members

    <MichealH> Monotoko: Im 13! I think there would be very little for me to do but sit down and IRc all day like I usually do

    <MichealH> hehe

    <MichealH> AlanBell: I understand

    <AlanBell> ok, hopefully there will be more info on parties for the next meeting

    <MichealH> AlanBell: Done?

    <AlanBell> I think so

    <MichealH> Any Questions?

    <Monotoko> AlanBell, I will call up some places...see if I can get anywhere booked

    <MichealH> Monotoko: Thats the sprirt

    <AlanBell> cool, MichealH action Monotoko to do that

    <sam898889> how many people are expected to join?

    <MichealH> sam898889: We dont know
