Roadmap
Rebooting sub-state groups - Discussion has taken place on the mailing list about restarting sub-state groups. It was acknowledged in IRC on September 15th that references in the wiki were removed and this was officially mentioned in the podcast Burning Circle. Currently work revolves around locating where exactly in the state members are located in population clumps by way of the member map.
Increasing the number of Ubuntu Members - As noted in an interview, Ubuntu Ohio will return to leadership by a council once there are at least ten active Ubuntu Members within this social community. In episode 128 of Burning Circle it was noted that the leader would be speaking at Ohio Linux Fest 2013 in September about the process of becoming an Ubuntu Member during this particular UbuCon and encouraging attendees to go through the steps. During episode 115 of Burning Circle the leader started in June pitching the notion to the membership of the social community. Currently there have been no takers which results in this being an on-going project.

UbuCon at Ohio Linux Fest 2013 - This was the community's part to Ubuntu Global Jam S-Series as noted on the LoCo Portal.
June 2013 Meeting - The meeting is logged on the LoCo Portal. This meeting report led to a bug being filed against the LoCo Portal to request flexibility be introduced. Other 2013 meetings were reported on the wiki as transcripts such as for January 23rd and January 28th.
