   7 [02:01] <darthrobot> Title: [CaliforniaTeam/Meetings/14March23 - Ubuntu Wiki]
   8 [02:02] <pleia2> ianorlin: guess it's just you and me!
   9 [02:02] <ianorlin> ok
  10 [02:02] <pleia2> maybe others will trickle in :)
  11 [02:03] <pleia2> #topic 14.04 Release planning
  12 [02:03] <pleia2> so at the last meeting I said I'd email some folks about possible venues for our release party
  13 [02:03] <pleia2> in SF
  14 [02:03] <pleia2> I contacted bkerensa to see about Mozilla's SF office, but haven't heard back yet
  15 [02:04] <pleia2> jyo put me in touch with some folks from AdRoll over on mission between 5th and 6th who have forwarded the request to their events department
  16 [02:04] <ianorlin> I don't know anything about places in SF
  17 [02:04] <nhaines> Hello everyone. :)
  18 [02:04] <pleia2> indeed, socal should also look into some venues if you wish to do one :)
  19 [02:05] <pleia2> that's all the updates from me really, if these two don't pan out I can chat with wikimedia or a few others
  20 [02:06] <pleia2> I should probably send a mail to the list to encourage other areas to get things going planning-wise in case they don't read meeting logs
  21 [02:06]  * ianorlin needs to get added to mailing list
  22 [02:07] <pleia2> ianorlin: can sign up here: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-us-ca
  23 [02:07] <darthrobot> Title: [Ubuntu-us-ca Info Page]
  24 [02:08] <pleia2> anyone else have any comments re: release parties at this time?
  25 [02:08] <pleia2> less than a month away :)
  26 [02:09] <ianorlin> sounds like a good idea but would get nervous on phone
  27 [02:10] <nhaines> pleia2: installfest in May?  :)
  28 [02:10] <pleia2> I don't know a whole lot about the phone to be honest
  29 [02:11] <pleia2> nhaines: should do!
  30 [02:11] <ianorlin> no I meant making phone calls sorry
  31 [02:11] <nhaines> OCLUG is having a installfest on May 24th.  We'll need CDs and a conference pack if possible.
  32 [02:11] <nhaines> This time they have the support of quite a few department heads so there should be a good turnout.
  33 [02:11] <nhaines> They've agreed to promote Ubuntu, although we'll install anything someone explicitly asks for.
  34 [02:12] <rww> oh, meeting
  35 [02:12] <pleia2> nhaines: can you browse over to https://forms.canonical.com/locopack/ and email me the answers to questions?
  36 [02:12] <rww> o/
  37 [02:12] <darthrobot> Title: [Local Community (LoCo) conference pack request]
  38 [02:12] <pleia2> nhaines: I can put in the request
  39 [02:12] <pleia2> re: conference pack
  40 [02:12] <nhaines> And I'll be giving a presentation.  Probably I'll make the slides available online shortly after 14.04 launch.
  41 [02:12] <pleia2> cool
  42 [02:12] <nhaines> And yes, I'll be happy to get those answers to you, thanks.  :)
  43 [02:12] <pleia2> ianorlin: I never make phone calls, all email :) icky phones
  44 [02:12] <nhaines> Hopefully the slides will be useful to anyone in California (or the world!) who wants to give a similar presentation.  :)
  45 [02:13] <rww> (or Ubuntu Mars)
  46 [02:13] <pleia2> nhaines: 14.04 release-specific?
  47 [02:13] <nhaines> That's about it.  We'll have an Android tablet giveaway and the date isn't announced to the LUG yet.  Should be good fun and anyone near Cal State Fullerton is welcome to pitch in.
  48 [02:13] <nhaines> pleia2: yup.
  49 [02:13] <pleia2> nhaines: cool, I'd love to get an early preview, hope to give a talk around here too
  50 [02:13] <nhaines> I've been using the slides since the 8.04 LTS specific talk I gave at North Orange County Computer Club, so it's time to do a major revamp instead of revisions.
  51 [02:14] <nhaines> pleia2: I'd love any feedback.  I'll get you something early next month.  :)
  52 [02:14] <pleia2> perfect :)
  53 [02:14] <rww> things are slightly different since 8.04 :P
  54 [02:14] <nhaines> rww: it's been updated but I want to make something fancier.
  55 [02:15] <nhaines> rww: read: orange.  :P
  56 [02:15] <rww> with dots!
  57 [02:15] <nhaines> Dots are forthcoming.  :)
  58 [02:15] <nhaines> That's all I have on release parties right now.
  59 [02:15] <pleia2> thanks nhaines
  60 [02:16] <rww> i've got nothing. was going to look at survey thing today but ended up Ingressing and getting a sunburn instead
  61 [02:16] <pleia2> haha
  62 [02:16] <pleia2> spring++
  63 [02:16] <pleia2> #topic Any other business
  64 [02:16] <pleia2> any other topics anyone wishes to bring up?
  65 [02:18] <nhaines> Oh, who has the banner down here?
  66 [02:18] <nhaines> I might want to borrow it.  :)
  67 [02:18]  * ianorlin doesn't have a banner
  68 [02:18] <pleia2> I think philip has it
  69 [02:18] <nhaines> Okay.  I'll ping him later.
  70 [02:18] <rww> the one that was at SCaLE? i'd guess philip too
  71 [02:18]  * pleia2 nods
