  18 [02:01] <darthrobot`> Current chairs: pleia2 rww
  19 [02:01] <pleia2> #topic Software Freedom Day plans
  20 [02:02] <pleia2> so grantbow emailed Sameer on the 24th about SFSU plans, who replied "updates coming soon"
  21 [02:02] <pleia2> afaik, there haven't been any yet
  22 [02:02] <pleia2> but they typically do an on campus thing some weekday that a few folks from the team go to
  23 [02:02] <pleia2> any other areas have anything?
  24 [02:02] <Roguehorse> oh, I was going to contact him to see if he needed help or anything and got sidetracked
  25 [02:02] <pleia2> hehe
  26 [02:03] <Roguehorse> I sent an email to Hurricane and never heard back
  27 [02:03] <pleia2> well, we're trying :)
  28 [02:03] <jyo> oh hi
  29 [02:03] <Roguehorse> hi
  30 [02:04] <pleia2> jyo works at Hurricane, so maybe chats can happen? :)
  31 [02:05] <nhaines> The next OCLUG meeting is technically on SFD.  So we probably should have planned something.
  32 [02:05] <Roguehorse> ?? Hmm .... sure!
  33 [02:05]  * ianorlin doesn't know the topic of next OCLUG meeting
  34 [02:06] <nhaines> They don't have topics unless there's a presentation.
  35 [02:06] <ianorlin> ah
  36 [02:08] <Roguehorse> (crickets)
  37 [02:09] <pleia2> hehe, ok, next topic then
  38 [02:09] <pleia2> #topic CaliforniaTeam/Leadership Election
  39 [02:09] <pleia2> so this isn't until December strictly speaking, but I want to put it in people's minds early
  40 [02:09] <Roguehorse> pleia2: Your the president! - next topic
  41 [02:09] <elky> nah, she needs a break
  42 [02:09] <Roguehorse> :-)
  43 [02:09] <pleia2> you may notice that I miss about half the meetings, I'm traveling a lot and work is taking up a lot of my time, so I probably want to not play leader anymore
  44 [02:10] <pleia2> plus Iwant to give others some opportunity :)
  45 [02:10]  * ianorlin hasn't done tihs before and don't really now how tihs works
  46 [02:10] <pleia2> ianorlin: we have a whole document! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CaliforniaTeam/Leadership
  47 [02:10] <darthrobot`> Title: [CaliforniaTeam/Leadership - Ubuntu Wiki]
  48 [02:10] <elky> there'll be a queue of people lining up to scold her for taking it on again if she does.
  49 [02:10] <Roguehorse> I have a hard time with the groups I have now trying to get anything done
  50 [02:10] <pleia2> mostly the job of the leadership trio is making sure meetings happen, announcements go out, and generally the team hums along
  51 [02:11] <pleia2> elky: hehe
  52 [02:11] <rww> more than three candidates this time would be nice :P
  53 [02:11] <pleia2> so if anyone is interested, please think about it, and ask me or philipballew or rww questions if you are curious about what we've been up to this past year
  54 [02:12] <pleia2> yes, a proper election would be lovely :)
  55 [02:12] <jyo> I'm too busy running the election to run in the election, guys.
  56 [02:12] <Roguehorse> LOL! I've seen that before at the Foundation
  57 [02:13] <nhaines> What's the process for standing for election?
  58 [02:13] <nhaines> Are there any deadlines, when's the election, etc. :)
  59 [02:14] <rww> jyo: I can run the election, if you'd like to run in it :P
  60 [02:14] <ianorlin> nhaines read pleia2 link
  61 [02:15] <pleia2> the coordinator will send out an email like this: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-us-ca/2013-December/002346.html
  62 [02:15] <darthrobot`> Title: [[Ubuntu-US-CA] Call for Ubuntu California LoCo leadershipnominations]
  63 [02:15] <nhaines> ianorlin: I have.  I didn't see any dates or nomination procedures there.
  64 [02:15] <pleia2> again, all a couple months off and we'll iron that out as we get closer, I just want potential leaders to start thinking
  65 [02:16] <nhaines> December.  Looks good.
  66 [02:16] <rww> and it's self-nomination over email or IRC
  67 [02:16]  * pleia2 nods
  68 [02:17]  * ianorlin wonders if that should be in the leadership so this question doesn't come up again
  69 [02:18] <pleia2> it'll be linked at the bottom of the page in a 2014 link once we get going
  70 [02:18] <pleia2> but it's 3 months off, so no one has done any of the deadline setting or anything yet
  71 [02:18] <pleia2> #topic Any other business
  72 [02:19] <Roguehorse> Has anyone heard from Jono at all? I never got to meet the guy.
  73 [02:20]  * ianorlin hears him on his podcast bad voltage but not in ubuntu-us-ca stuff
  74 [02:20] <pleia2> he came to our release party in San Francisco for Trusty
  75 [02:20] <nhaines> Jono's around all the time.
  76 [02:20] <Roguehorse> I know, I was there too, but somehow missed him
  77 [02:20] <nhaines> Roguehorse: I'm hoping he's at SCALE again next year.  He's awesome.  :)
  78 [02:21]  * ianorlin is pretty sure he will be
  79 [02:21] <Roguehorse> I've heard all good things
  80 [02:21] <pleia2> he's got the XPrize job now, so not quite as much Ubuntu-y things I think these days
  81 [02:21] <Roguehorse> I've heard from many that I HAVE to get to SCALE but it's kind of a big wad of cash right now
  82 [02:22] <pleia2> so, other things on the calendar, Utopic release is coming up on October 23rd
  83 [02:22]  * ianorlin likes living close to scale
  84 [02:22] <Roguehorse> ianorlin: :-P
  85 [02:22] <nhaines> Utopic will also be the foundation of the new phones featuring Ubuntu later this year.  :)
  86 [02:23] <pleia2> \o/
  87 [02:23] <Roguehorse> Hmm.. my phone is junk again. I need to send it in for exchange
  88 [02:24] <nhaines> I cleaned my keyboard last night and got all the keys back in the same place.
  89 [02:24]  * ianorlin wonders what new things are in server for utopic
  90 [02:24] <Roguehorse> nhaines: LOL! Good work! (put it on your LinkedIN) ;-)
  91 [02:25] <nhaines> Looking inside keyboard.  Soon the living shall envy the dead.
  92 [02:25]  * pleia2 gives nhaines a gold star
  93 [02:25] <pleia2> ianorlin: I don't expect a lot of innovation
  94 [02:26] <pleia2> so, other upcoming stuff, I'll be out of town on Wednesday, but Michael Paoli will be hosting the typical SF Ubuntu Hour (and probably a Debian Dinner to follow)
  95 [02:26] <pleia2> berkeley ubuntu hour coming up on the 18th: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-california/2692-ubuntu-hour-berkeley/
  96 [02:26] <darthrobot`> Title: [Ubuntu Hour Berkeley | Ubuntu LoCo Team Portal]
  97 [02:27] <pleia2> oh! copies of The Official Ubuntu Book
  98 [02:28] <Roguehorse> have it
  99 [02:28] <pleia2> nhaines has some in SoCal, I have some in NorCal, chat with us if you need one
 100 [02:28] <pleia2> 8th edition (came out in July)
 101 [02:28] <nhaines> I'm waiting on 9th edition.
 102 [02:28] <pleia2> hehe
 103 [02:29] <pleia2> ok, that's all I've got
 104 [02:29] <Roguehorse> Some of the peeps at EBLUG might dig one
 105 [02:30] <pleia2> I should go to that some time
 106 [02:31] <Roguehorse> They're a nice group, just not very, um (active)? I guess I should say?
 107 [02:31] <pleia2> aha :)
 108 [02:32] <Roguehorse> pleia2: It would be nice to see you come in and hang out :-)
 109 [02:32] <jyo> You're not missing much, at least last time I dropped by.
 110 [02:32] <Roguehorse> I'm trying - but it's hard when you'rew the only one motivated
 111 [02:32] <pleia2> Roguehorse: may do! probably not until November or so
 112 [02:33] <Roguehorse> pleia2: No worries
 113 [02:33] <pleia2> although, I might be around this month
 114 [02:33]  * pleia2 shrugs
 115 [02:33] <pleia2> anyway, anything else from anyone before we wrap up and I go get sushi? :d
 116 [02:33] <Roguehorse> nah, I'm empty
 117 [02:34] <pleia2> alrighty, thanks everyone
