Pick another population hotspot? 20:10:24 <brunogirin> Manchester? 20:10:26 <BigRedS> oh, here: http://ubuntu-uk.org/where-are-we/ 20:11:03 <AlanBell> Oxford, Southampton, Manchester are all quite good options 20:13:08 <AlanBell> any preferences? 20:14:17 <brunogirin> nope 20:14:27 * BigRedS can't really get to any of those so doesn't particularly mind 20:15:10 <TonyP> none near me either 20:15:40 <AlanBell> ho hum 20:16:44 <brunogirin> I can probably do Oxford or Southampton 20:17:06 <brunogirin> Manchester at a push if it's on a Friday 20:17:40 <AlanBell> ok, well lets try to find a person in one of those places who can certainly turn up one evening early december 20:18:01 <AlanBell> I want to announce that one on the day of the Notts one 20:18:44 <brunogirin> so is that an action for you to post on the mailing list a request for volunteers to go to the pub one evening in December? 20:18:54 <AlanBell> yup 20:19:32 <AlanBell> #action AlanBell to call for a contact person for the December happy hour 20:19:32 * meetingology AlanBell to call for a contact person for the December happy hour 20:19:45 <AlanBell> which brings us on to . . . 20:19:50 <AlanBell> [TOPIC] AlanBell - Christmas Party? 20:20:11 <BigRedS> Aha! 20:20:14 * BigRedS votes 'yes' 20:20:14 <AlanBell> so should we do a christmas party? 20:20:21 <AlanBell> where? 20:20:56 <brunogirin> in a pub? 20:20:58 <BigRedS> London! 20:21:12 <AlanBell> pub in london sounds possible 20:23:15 <brunogirin> but won't it clash with the december happy hour? 20:23:33 <AlanBell> well maybe put the happy hour in Manchester 20:23:39 <BigRedS> ah, perhaps. the december happy hour would probably be a christmasy do by default 20:23:48 <AlanBell> it might be a bit chirsmassy 20:24:24 <AlanBell> should we try something more of a meal perhaps? 20:24:49 <BigRedS> might be hard close to christmas through everybody else wanting to do same? 20:25:18 <AlanBell> sure, but we could book a christmas meal somewhere 20:25:29 <AlanBell> would cost a bit, but hey, it is christmas 20:25:40 <AlanBell> or just go to a pub 20:26:13 <BigRedS> hmm, depends what the people going want, I suppose. Pubs are more flexible, which is probably handy 20:26:20 <BigRedS> but also more alcoholic, which might be less so 20:27:10 <AlanBell> maybe pub is best 20:28:55 <diplo> I'm interested but defo would like some notice so i can make sure whether my ex or i have kids so i can arrange around them 20:30:01 <AlanBell> ok, I will mail the list asking for venue suggestion for a christmas pub visit I think 20:30:09 <AlanBell> some time late december 20:31:51 <AlanBell> we are having interesting discussions here about London venues 20:36:44 <AlanBell> ok, possible meal in total darkness 20:37:05 <BigRedS> haha 20:37:51 <AlanBell> ok, I will do some investigation 20:37:54 <AlanBell> moving on 20:37:57 <AlanBell> [TOPIC] AlanBell - en_GB Localised ISO 20:38:43 <AlanBell> so we have Ubuntu 11.10 the Oneiric Ocelot and the official iso imaves 20:38:46 <AlanBell> images 20:39:19 <AlanBell> there is a process for LoCo teams to do a custom respin with their own locale and translations pre-installed 20:39:24 <AlanBell> we should do that 20:39:35 <BigRedS> yes 20:39:41 <BigRedS> stop popey complaining about his trash can :) 20:39:48 <AlanBell> with no americanisms 20:39:51 <AlanBell> and a rubbish bin 20:40:29 <TonyP> waste basket? 20:40:29 <BigRedS> what do we need to do? 20:40:31 <jacobw> ahem, 'deleted items'. 20:40:53 <BigRedS> they're patently not deleted if they're in the not-yet-deleted-stuff directory... 20:41:16 <jacobw> endangered items.. :P 20:41:22 <BigRedS> haha 20:41:44 <AlanBell> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/loco-contacts/2011-July/005506.html 20:42:01 * SuprEngr thinks of a name - but darn't suggest it - it's got 4 leters & starts with an 's' 20:42:25 <AlanBell> David Planella or dpm on IRC is the contact person for thatg 20:42:28 <BigRedS> oh yeah, I remember that one 20:43:07 <AlanBell> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricOcelot/LocalizedImagesRollout 20:44:30 <brunogirin> so how do we organise ourselves to do that? 20:45:18 <AlanBell> well there are some instructions on that page, and some scripts which may wokr 20:45:35 <AlanBell> we need to have a bunch of people working on this I think 20:46:02 <AlanBell> getting it running, testing it, making sure the transkations are right etc 20:46:54 <AlanBell> so how should we do this, kick off with a mail to the list and find some people to do it? 20:47:17 <AlanBell> I will have lots of emails to get out later 20:47:47 <BigRedS> haha, yeah, sounds like a plan. I think I'd be up for a bit of that. Though I'm already a bit short on time... 20:47:55 <AlanBell> me too 20:48:02 <AlanBell> however I would like to see it happen 20:48:06 <BigRedS> yeah 20:48:19 <AlanBell> ok, will do 20:48:23 <AlanBell> [TOPIC] The Chair - Any Other Business 20:48:42 <AlanBell> anyone got anything thye want to raise? 20:50:37 * BigRedS hasn't 20:51:17 <SuprEngr> only to apologise for my tardiness... sdlight heating emergency 20:51:25 <SuprEngr> *slight 20:52:51 <AlanBell> okies :) 20:52:53 <AlanBell> [TOPIC] Date of next meeting 20:53:01 <AlanBell> about 3 weeks 20:53:31 <AlanBell> ooh, 10th November, on the day of the Notts Happy Hour 20:53:42 <BigRedS> aha 20:53:53 <AlanBell> I like this plan 20:53:54 <BigRedS> could make it a frequent thing 20:54:08 <AlanBell> will pick a chair nearer the time 20:54:09 <BigRedS> does introduce laptops to the happy hour, though 20:54:23 <AlanBell> optional 20:54:35 <AlanBell> I think chairing from the pub is sub-optimal 20:54:44 <AlanBell> #endmeeting Generated by MeetBot 0.1.5 (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AlanBell/mootbot)
