21:13 < johnc4510> Announcements
21:14 < johnc4510> slofgren and I have been discussing the idea of putting together and linux conference to be held on a yearly basis. Google helped to sponsor one in Utah.
21:14 < johnc4510> Google now has an office in Tempe associated with ASU and there would be a chance of getting them to help sponser this. I believe we can also get Ubuntu, and maybe some of it's partners to also help with this idea.
21:14 < ngtmagicks> what type of participation would be wanted?
21:14 < johnc4510> It's a long term idea, that would not be implimented until next year sometime. We would try to get the lug's in the state to help work with our team to put this event on.
21:15 < johnc4510> ngtmagicks: hang on a sec please
21:15 < johnc4510> It would feature talks on linux and open source from speakers we would try to secure from the open source community in AZ. So, it would be an educational event to further promote linux and open source within our state. 
21:15 < johnc4510> ok, now
21:15 < johnc4510> for the present, no participation from the team
21:16 < johnc4510> but later there would be
21:16 < ngtmagicks> kool
21:16 < johnc4510> this is all in the very earliest of planning
21:16 < johnc4510> and will take a long time to pull off
21:16 < johnc4510> but
21:16 < ngtmagicks> Monster.com also has an office in Tempe
21:17 < johnc4510> it would help to bring the lugs in az closer to our team   
21:17 < johnc4510> helping both 
21:17 < johnc4510> ngtmagicks: ha ty
21:17 < johnc4510> :))  monster would be great
21:17 < slofgren> monster linux jam 2008
