So... oh, wait, here he is sorry the time changes always make bedtimes worses my typing suffers too lol You have the floor mhall119 ! okay, so I assume everybody knows about the birthday bash http://www.meetup.com/Tampa-Linux/calendar/10712190/ there have been some different times posted in different places, so I just wanted to clarigy clarify even we plan on eating about 5pm we're telling people to start arriving at about noon to give us all lots of time for socializing before dinner since I know some of you will have a long drive home after dinner Welcome aboard nejode we are in a team meeting (just to let you know, and you are welcome to join in the discussion) but really, you can some whenever you want I know there are some people coming over early to help Michelle_Qimo bake goodies for the rest of us thanks... bring a side dish, if you can, and lawn chairs if you have them we've got a few high-carb side dishes already in the works :D so any veggie dishes would be good we have like 30 pounds of meat for the smoker so don't worry about that we'll be providing some sodas what is the optimal time of arrival? alcoholic beverages are welcome, but we won't be providing any (we blew out booze money on more meat) crashsystems: any time between noon and 5pm is optimal if you're going to be drinking alcohol, please be respectful, this is a family gathering, I don't want anyone drunk any idea on when you plan to wind things down? * haykuro passes out because we will draw funny faces on you with permanent marker rofl haykuro ! ;) govatent: sometime after dinner I would imagine and take pictures finally, we have an extra room and an air mattress if someone needs to stay over night mhall119: lol Everyone is welcome to stay 'til whenever. There's some crashing space available or two someones, if you really like eachother lol woo hoo! it's offered on a first come first served basis snuggling? snuggling is always an option Lupine: that's optional spooning costs extra Just so everyone knows over 57 people will potentially attend if everyone who says they're coming actually comes if halls.OverNightGuests >= 2: crashsystems.print "I call floor" Lupine: needs to be held, as he's all alone up in Mass. crashsystems: we also have the couch crashsystems: your space is held. that works too lol crashsystems ! yeah...kinda sad...get lots of pictures for me, won't be leaving MA until late Sat night :( which is only slightly more comfortable than the floor Lupine: :( I'll send itnet7 home with a care package for you Oh, and just to serve as a reminder - play nice everyone. ty <3 no guarantees it'll survive until the following Monday lol we've got at least two guests (our son included) that have high functioning autism. Mind your manners. Oh, of course Michelle_Qimo :-) also, just to let everyone know we now have a black labrador not just the two little dogs but he will be in his kennel for the duration of the party All I can think of when someone says labrador is Cheech and Chong lol at least it is not a laberdoodle :P [TOPIC]Ubuntu Learning Project -- mhall119 2009-11-03 18:06:12 okay, moving on moving on I got to sit in on pleia2's session for Ubuntu Open Week today * mhall119 should have been working oh well lol Great session, worth a little less work ;) mhall119, so how did it go anyway, she's involved in a really neat project to get community instruction together for teaching people Ubuntu the log of the session is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/openweekKarmic/Learning the project wiki is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Learning/ they're wanting to get more contributions I'm here \o/ I've already linked my hacklet from ubuntu-fl.org for doctormo to include Hey there zoopster!! hey Hey zoopster! I also linked tiemonster's macro for OpenOffice.org it would be nice if we could all contribute a little to helping them build up this project so this project is about having in-person training sessions? there's a very low barrier to entry hi Michelle_Qimo is there anything useful I can contribute? crashsystems: it's making the course material, which will then be converted into HTML, IRC lessons (like for UOW), moodle courses, or printouts Michelle_Qimo: yes they need some outlines for what instructions are needed mhall119, can you list out some of the topics that we can do some people have contributed ODF material that needs to be converted to asciidoc for them They should also involve new contributors to kind of "beta" test new courses even just giving them reference material to tutorials or instructions that you've written of found elsewhere or new users I meant their IRC channel is #ubuntu-learning you can also contribute by simply reviewing lessons others have posted for accuracy and clarity Nice! there's really a lot that anybody can do mhall119, you know what my skillset is. Get me materials, and I'll review and edit. I know some people in here (who aren't currently here) have held packaging lessons, those should be contributed Michelle_Qimo: will do and Lupine's bug triaging lesson!! sweet! pleia2 and doctormo are running the show, so if you want to know where you can help go chat with them itnet7: yes! yup, I'm checking out the wiki to see what I can offer so, go /join #ubuntu-learning read the logs from the talk (there are links at the bottom too) and lets make this project really rock cool! if you know of any tutorials or instructions online, go ahead and link to them at the bottom of their wiki pages * Michelle_Qimo adds another channel to lurk in to her list. they've got it broken apart into sections so pick whatever seems most suited, and add your link [TOPIC] Talk about South Florida event - -- alanbir 2009-11-03 19:35:47 Oops if you have some time, write a quick instruction on some topic that interests you, or some package that interests you sorry, not trying to rush anyone itnet7: it's okay, that's all I had govatent: ! yes you're turn well ok South Florida event! watch out for splattering mud ok here's the deal rofl I know i said i would have worked something out to host an event here, but between school and work i have not taken the time to do so yet.
