    <itnet7> [TOPIC] UDS Welcome Party update -- mhall119

UDS Welcome Party update -- mhall119

  • <itnet7> mhall119: go ahead if you're ready

    <mhall119> okay, hopefully by now we all know that we're planning a welcoming party for the participants of uds-n

    <mhall119> itnet7: any word on venue?

    <itnet7> mhall119: not yet

    <itnet7> I will try to give an update soon

    <mhall119> okay, we should maybe start thinking of alternatives then

    <itnet7> [ACTION] ITnet7 will find out about the Venue, and the team will begin looking into alternative venues, just in case.

ITnet7 will find out about the Venue, and the team will begin looking into alternative venues, just in case.

  • <mhall119> just in case

    <pak33m> hey all im here but will be in and out. really sorry for the missing in action-action

    <itnet7> no problem pak33m

    <zoopster> nothing at the UDS hotel?

    <mhall119> zoopster: that's what we're waiting to hear back on

    <zoopster> ok...from Marianna? or who?

    <itnet7> zoopster: amber and I were drafting an e-mail, so we can see whether or not we can get one

    <andreserl> what is the wwelcoming party about?

    <mhall119> andreserl: just a way for us to say "Welcome to Florida"

    <itnet7> Unless you can look into it zoopster

    <zoopster> that email is going to? Claire, Marianna, who?

    <itnet7> Marianna I believe

    <andreserl> mhall119, ok Smile :)

    <andreserl> itnet7, yes should be Marianna

    <zoopster> what would be best is you lob the request and I'll follow up with the same and enlist Jorge/Jono, etc into it

    <mhall119> the current plan is, if we can get a room at the hotel, to just buy a bunch of pizzas and maybe play a movie over a projector

    <itnet7> zoopster: cool I will touch base with Amber tonight

    <zoopster> ok...Marianna will be doing logistics, but it's Claire's event still so I'll work them...copy me on the email (you can blind me if you want)

    <itnet7> We may have to do some creative stuff like pay for the pizza outside and everyone bring in a box

    <mhall119> itnet7: yeah, we'll have to work all of that out after we know we can use a room

    <zoopster> ok...I can help. I will be around for some of it...depending on when

    <itnet7> mhall119: that is the reason we might not be able to get a room

    <mhall119> zoopster: awesome, I wasn't sure if you were going or not

    <zoopster> I will be there for some of everyday

    <mhall119> itnet7: if we can get a room but not bring in pizza, we can arrange some other activity

    <mhall119> like popcorn and drinks or something

    <cjohnston> dont forget about w.u.c/FloridaTeam/UDS-N

  • mhall119 forgot about that

    <Klutz> How many might attend this meeting?

    <zoopster> There are alternatives close by as well...not many, but some - keep me in the loop I'll help where I can

    <itnet7> Klutz: not sure what you mean? UDS? or the Just the Welcome Party?

    <zoopster> that link is empty

    <Klutz> Howmany people might attend this?

    <itnet7> [LINK] http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/242/detail/

  • <itnet7> so far the count is like 14 or so

    <cjohnston> with no advertising

    <cjohnston> iirc

    <itnet7> right cjohnston

    <mhall119> itnet7: that's just florida team

    <itnet7> Yeah, I know

    <mhall119> how many usually attend UDS?

    <cjohnston> ya.. once we get venue and such, we can blow up the adverts

    <cjohnston> few hundred

    <itnet7> 300

    <mhall119> so, maybe we'll have about 200 or so

    <itnet7> I think we'll be lucky if we get a 1/3 due to jet lag and such

    <zoopster> so Sunday evening works for me...I have my boys but can drop and run early that day and be in MCO by early evening

    <itnet7> 1/3 of the total

    <mhall119> itnet7: that's all I had for that topic

    <itnet7> okay

    <itnet7> [TOPIC] UDS Sponsorship Deadline -- mhall119

UDS Sponsorship Deadline -- mhall119

  • <Klutz> ]

    <cjohnston> TOMORROW!

    <mhall119> so, Canonical always pays for some community members to attend UDS

    <mhall119> you have to apply for it

    <mhall119> deadline is, like cjohnston said, tomorrow

    <mhall119> so if you need financial assitance to attend UDS, and have contributed to Ubuntu itself or the community, make sure you apply before the

    <mhall119> then

Open Discussion

  • <himuraken> Where is the current calendar with meetings and IRC meetups etc? I got busy and off track.

    <itnet7> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FloridaTeam/Meetings

    <mhall119> Just a reminder, Launchpad lets you enter your location so they can plot members on a map of the state, if you don't have your general location in there, please add it

    <mhall119> it helps new members see if there are people near them

    <himuraken> thanks itnet7

    <itnet7> [LINK]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FloridaTeam/Meetings

  • <zoopster> is everyone who will be at UDS signed up for it on launchpad?

    <itnet7> himuraken: no problem!

    <itnet7> *doublechecks*

  • mhall119 is signed up

    <itnet7> [LINK]https://edge.launchpad.net/sprints/uds-n

  • <itnet7> I am...

    <itnet7> Did anyone find out any of the pricing of weekly condos in the area?

    <itnet7> Not sure if anyone was going to check on it

    <mhall119> maxo was looking into that

    <zoopster> dantalizing needs to add another guest for the event on Sunday...I'm sure dantalizing jr will be hitching a ride

    <itnet7> someone has to Hack for papa

    <itnet7> Smile :-)

    <itnet7> mhall119: sweet, I will check with him

    <itnet7> Now that all of the UDS stuff is up, should we start filling in local info including restaurants and points of interest?

    <mhall119> itnet7: filling it in where?

    <zoopster> good idea

    <mhall119> how far away is down town disney from the hotel?

    <itnet7> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UDS-M/LocalParticipation well something similar to this

    <itnet7> We can create the Local Participation page for when they do the Root wiki, or we can help create a root wiki

    <mhall119> I guess we can start using adding them to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FloridaTeam/UDS-N

    <Klutz> mhall119: What Hotel?

    <mhall119> Klutz: the hotel they're holding UDS at, Calibre or something

    <itnet7> Royal Caribe

    <mhall119> that one

    <zoopster> mhall119: not far

    <zoopster> relatively speaking

    <mhall119> they have a nice movie theatre there

    <mhall119> and the candy cauldron

    <zoopster> the hotel is east of i4 past the marriot world center

    <zoopster> no close starbucks

    <zoopster> need jimmy to commit to dj'ing on Sunday
