Room H3227 or H3228
Brussel		 During this meeting, we decided
Line 15: Line 12:
See http://fosdem.org to come

As this room is on the first floor and is non available for the public,
the meeting point is at 14h down the stairs just next the hacker-room (and
the WC).

During this meeting, we will discuss the following points :

- What are the goals of Ubuntu-be
- What will we do in the near future ?
- Who will do it ?
- SURPRISE !!! (not a joke, expect a big surprise)

We will keep this meeting as short as possible so you can attend some
interesting talks. Perhaps we will spend more friendly (read "beer") time
together saturday night ?


  * Ubuntu-be must be...
 * Ubuntu-be must not replace ubuntu-de, ubuntu-fr or ubuntu-nl for forum's, ...
 * to create a mailing list (pending)
 * We had the good SURPRISE to see "the" Jeff Waugh coming to see us... And he agreed to create the mailing list for us (if he could find a connected laptop somewhere). It seems he's still looking for that now :-)

Belgian Ubuntu Group

The goal is to create Ubuntu-be, a group of active Ubuntu members in, Belgium. Ubuntu-be will be at least in french and in dutch language. German is also an official language.

Meeting

We had our first Ubuntu-be meeting Saturday 25th february (During FOSDEM).

During this meeting, we decided

  • Ubuntu-be must be...
  • Ubuntu-be must not replace ubuntu-de, ubuntu-fr or ubuntu-nl for forum's, ...
  • to create a mailing list (pending)

  • We had the good SURPRISE to see "the" Jeff Waugh coming to see us... And he agreed to create the mailing list for us (if he could find a connected laptop somewhere). It seems he's still looking for that now Smile :-)

  • Ubuntu-be without beer is Ubunotu-be (Ploum, is a word like that ok with your presentation ?:-) )

Why an Belgian Ubuntu Group ? Ubuntu-fr, Ubuntu-nl and Ubuntu-de are enough !

When talking about website, forum, documentation, we agree that Ubuntu-fr, -nl and -de are more than enough. They are doing a fantastic job and we will not compete with them. Our goal is NOT to do any kind of support or documentation on the web.

As belgian, we speak several languages, but we are a country. The current belgian community is divided in three and we lack of cooperation for organisation of local events, press contacts, etc. For example, if you organize an install party in Brussel as a member of ubuntu-fr, you will reach a lot of french people that are not interested in, some french-speaking belgian and that's all.

The goal of Ubuntu-be would be then to increase cooperation for :

  • organisation and advertising local events
  • contacts with the press, publication of belgian specific press release
  • helping people to find local Ubuntu related ressources (commercial or not).
  • Increase the cooperation between the nl, de and fr belgian community
  • On the web : redirect people to the best forum or wiki for their need (ubuntu-fr, nl, ...)
  • Contact locale Vendors
  • have a list of local ressources (tutorials, ...)

There is Microsoft France, Microsoft Belgique/Belgïe, Microsoft Netherlands. Belgian people are watching belgian TV and reading belgian newspapers. Indeed, we believe that the only real country is "The Earth". But in our society, we think that belgian people will want a belgian Ubuntu group.

Ressources

Mailing list : Ubuntu-be will have one and only one mailing-list. We think only one mailing list is better so we also talk the "other" language from our lovely country. (LionelDricot : Ya, Ik moet mijn nederlands verbetern Wink ;-) ) This mailing list will not be a helpdesk mailing list.

IRC : The IRC chan will not be a helpdesk chan. We will send people to #ubuntu-fr or to #ubuntu-nl. The IRC chan will be only for administrative purposes. (like #ubuntu-fr-meeting)

Forum : Ubuntu-be will not have any forums or documentation. Instead, we will point to ubuntu-fr, ubuntu-nl, ubuntu-de and ubuntuforums.org. There is no need to divide the effort.

IRL ressources : Ubuntu-be will provide a list of real-life ressources for each "provinces" : LUG, commercial societies that provide support for Ubuntu, ...

press Ubuntu-be will publish press release for all things related to Ubuntu in Belgium. Ubuntu-be will also provide a contact for journalists (in our different languages).

People

If you are intersted, write your name here with your "province", your first language. Your name must link to your Ubuntu wiki page so we can contact you.

Others

Docs and website translation in French, for UBUNTU's Belgian Community.

Ubuntu signifie "humanité aux autres". Cela résume en de biens beaux termes tout l'esprit des logiciels ouverts et de linux en particulier. Ubuntu, système d'exploitation stable et efficace vous conviendra au bureau comme à la maison, pour toutes vos applications.
