Ubuntu Wiki

• Launchpad Entry: Meeting Feature

• Created: 2010-03-31

• Contributors: mhall119

• Packages affected: loco-directory

Summary

Provide the functionality necessary for LoCo Teams to plan and track their IRC meetings

Release Note

TBD

Rationale

LoCo Teams currently track their meeting dates, times, agenda and logs in separate places. Provide a unified place for managing this data.

User stories

Rory will be chairing the next IRC meeting for their team. They use the wiki to keep track of this. They have to copy and paste from an old meeting page to a new page, and hand edit it to make sense for the new meeting. This is a lot of copy/pasting and manual effort.

Laura wants to add an agenda item to the IRC meeting for their upcoming meeting, and tries to add it to the wiki page. However the wikisyntax is unclear and confusing, so they wind up getting the formatting wrong.

Assumptions

1. LoCo Teams will usually hold meetings in their own channels

2. LoCo Teams may hold meetings in #ubuntu-meeting or some other channel

3. Meetings have an agenda of items to discuss
4. Meetings will be logged
