UDS action items/blueprint

• <nigelbabu> Well, this session is still not yet

  <elky> akgraner, says that there isn't anything new about this since the UDS meeting is conveniently tomorrow instead of before now.

  <nigelbabu> so, we can defer this action topic?

  <elky> nigelbabu, it's still on the agenda, and amber asked it be mentioned

  <elky> And yes, it's mentioned so it can be deferred, not just skipped

  <elky> [TOPIC] Wiki Translations - Status update

Wiki Translations - Status update

• elky pokes IdleOne

  <IdleOne> Well

  <nigelbabu> the uds session is on flamboyant room at 1000 CEST, poke me if you have trouble participating remotely

  <IdleOne> Since the last meeting I have not done any translation I did notice a couple of updates to the wiki but right now things have slowed down a bit.

  <IdleOne> That said I do plan on resending a email to the ML soon to ask/re-ask for help again

  <IdleOne> Just so we can keep it fresh in peoples minds

  <elky> It looks like we have a few new contributors

  <elky> or were they just ones I didn't notice until now?

  <IdleOne> elky I haven't been keeping up with Translations other then French.

  <elky> triple_j and joss are ones I had not noticed before

  <elky> i'm seeing them in recent changes as i'm lazy and that's all i'm looking at

  <IdleOne> triple_j aka Jiackie

  <IdleOne> Jackie*

  <IdleOne> and joss is new

  <IdleOne> I have been pre-occupied with some life stuff lately :/ I do apologize for not keeping up to date

  <elky>

  <nigelbabu> IdleOne:

  <elky> That's ok, teams exist for a reason.

  <IdleOne>

  <elky> next item?

  <nigelbabu> lets move on

• <elky> er,...

  <elky> [TOPIC] World Play Day announcement - Status update

World Play Day announcement - Status update

• <nigelbabu> How many submissions do we have now?

  <elky> I haven't checked today, nor have I been through to check that they're all valid

  <AlanBell> you may have some more later (now I have fixed my SMTP access)

  <Pendulum> but we're doing okay with submissions?

  <nigelbabu> what time are we closing?

  <elky> One invididual has sent in over a dozen pics of the one child, so we might have to be a little mean

  <nigelbabu> I could do a blog post telling we are closing at such and such time, last call

  <elky> since some of them are practiacally duplicates if it weren't for something changing on the monitor

  <elky> but yes, there's quite a lot of entries

  <elky> nigelbabu, that'd be good.

  <nigelbabu> elky: so what is the cut off time?

  <IdleOne> I would assume that if a person wins one prize they can't win another?

  <elky> nigelbabu, 2359UTC

  <elky> IdleOne, yes

  <nigelbabu> elky: 13th 2359?

  <elky> nigelbabu, 14th 2359

  <nigelbabu> elky: ok, I'll take an action to blog about it

  <elky> [ACTION] nigelbabu et al to blog it

• <nigelbabu> Anything else we need to talk about related to play day?

  <elky> Anything else regarding the comp?

  <nigelbabu>

  <nigelbabu> Nothing more I believe

  <elky> [TOPIC] Elections!

Elections!

• <elky> [ACTION] nigelbabu et al to blog it

• <elky> :P

  <nigelbabu> well, ok

  <pleia2> yeah, I should probably do that too

  <nigelbabu> pleia2: do you want me to stagger my post?

  <pleia2> nigelbabu: nah, I won't get to it for a couple days

  <nigelbabu> pleia2: ok, I'll work on it today

  <pleia2> I'll try to get to it sunday, if not monday

  <pleia2> great

  <elky> [LINK] http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/UbuntuWomen/LeadershipNominations/June2010

• <elky> so far it's lyz, leigh and myself nominated

  <pleia2> we should also nudge the people we think are awesome to get them to add themselves

  <elky> Yup

  <nigelbabu> yes, /me pokes Pendulum

• AlanBell actually pokes Pendulum

  <pleia2> hehe

  <Pendulum> nigelbabu: you had a proxy you didn't know about there :P

  <nigelbabu> hehe

  <pleia2> group photo time!

  <elky> Represent, yo!

  <nigelbabu> elky: aob?

  <elky> nigelbabu, translation?

  <nigelbabu> um, AOB make smore sense

  <elky> I'm allergic to TLAs

  <nigelbabu> hehe, Any other buisness?

  <elky> Oooh. Right.

  <elky> Don't think so, unless anyone has something to raise?

  <elky> I'll take that as a no

  <IdleOne> Am I mistaken in thinking I read something about UW thinking about a new logo?

  <elky> vish was poking at something

  <nigelbabu> IdleOne: Yep, vish has been working on it

  <elky> two-tone, white on orange

  <nigelbabu> based on the new color schedule and new logo

  <IdleOne> ahh ok. Maybe that would be a good competition ?

  <nigelbabu> good idea actually

  <IdleOne> Just throwing that out there.

  <elky> yeah, though vish might get a bit miffed if we run one now.

  <IdleOne> yeah, don't want to upset anyone

  <elky> We'll see what comes of it first

  <nigelbabu> if we're not happy, we could run a competition

  <elky> I'm reluctant to run a competition for everything.

  <elky> (says the person who initiated two competitions)

  <IdleOne> agreed, I just thought that tapping into the amazing artist the the community has would be nice

  <IdleOne> artists*

  <elky> IdleOne, yep, it'd be nice, but we risk becoming The Group That Runs Competitions.

  <priyankanm>

  <elky> Whereas the competitions were marketing us, and now we should get down to business until next year

  <IdleOne> I see your point

  <elky> When i first suggested these comps, I was thinking "meh, we might get a tshirt"

  <elky> and as you can see, we got more than a tshirt in sponsorship.

  <elky> Anyway, we, well people who will be at the next meeting, can discuss it more then. Vish might have finished the concepts by then

  <IdleOne> sounds good

  <elky> Any additional further business?

  <IdleOne> nope

  <elky> [ENDMEETING]

  <elky> Hrm...

  <IdleOne> bots are lagged

  <elky> split maybe

  <AlanBell> it is a #endmeeting if I recall

  <elky> #endmeeting
