| <looksaus> jono, I remember you adding a link to a world clock at www.timeanddate.com to a locoteams meeting announcement in the past | |
| <jono> looksaus: did I? | |
| <looksaus> I seem to remember so | |
| <looksaus> or maybe it was for the community council | |
| <looksaus> anyway, I just wanted to say this was a great idea | |
| <looksaus> that it might be nice to also do so in the future... | |
| <looksaus> (just a suggestion though) | |
| <looksaus> ah, it was seveas: | |
| <looksaus> jono, http://www.mail-archive.com/loco-contacts@lists.ubuntu.com/msg00117.html | |
| <looksaus> btw: had a great computer fair booth yesterday | |
| <jono> looksaus: :) | |
| <jono> cool | |
| <looksaus> we were 4 volunteers | |
| <looksaus> it's really amazing how being there in a series of fairs | |
| <looksaus> generates you a lot of trust from the shop people | |
| <looksaus> once they start recognising you, once they see you are not there to take away their business, | |
| <looksaus> they come talk to you & start seeing the possibilities of ubuntu | |
| <looksaus> that's really rewarding | |
| <jono> its pretty cool | |
| <jono> I remember that when I did fairs :) | |
| <looksaus> heh | |
| <looksaus> jono, how likely is it for us as an official locoteam to get another 1k CD's? | |
| <jono> looksaus: unlikely | |
| <Admiral_Chicago> looksaus: what team are you on | |
| <looksaus> (when requesting thorugh shipit) | |
| <jono> looksaus: we don't ship that large orders | |
| <looksaus> because right now, what we are doing is burn about half of them at the fair itself | |
| <looksaus> onto cd's we buy ourselves | |
| <looksaus> and offer the possibility of making a small donation (think 1€) | |
| <Admiral_Chicago> jono: quick question. Ubuntu Chicago LoCo is doing a meeting. any possibility of getting more shipit's | |
| <Admiral_Chicago> not sure how many nixternal has, but i think i'm the secondary contact for that stuff | |
| <looksaus> what quantity would it make sense to ask for | |
| <jono> you need to take ShipIt enquiries to them, I don't manage shipit :) | |
| <jono> thankfully :P | |
| <elkbuntu> hehe | |
| <looksaus> ok, I was only asking this because we're confronted with a demand, and we can more or less estimate how many we would ideally need | |
| <looksaus> and you might know how many it might make sense to ask for | |
| <Admiral_Chicago> jono: i didn't think so, i just remember RJ saying he put us down for the new system | |
| <looksaus> I could imagine Marilize asking you how many to ship to us... | |
| <jono> looksaus: she won't - she doesn't generally consult me on requests | |
| <jono> I doubt she would send more than 200 or 300 at any one time | |
| <jono> we are cutting back on the edgy CDs with shipit y'see | |
| <looksaus> jono, I'm talking dapper of course... | |
| <jono> looksaus: are you? | |
| <looksaus> should have made that clearer | |
| <jono> looksaus: I am sure of limits on dapper, marilize will know | |
| <looksaus> ok; is she on irc often? nick? | |
| <looksaus> (sorry for disturbing you with this) | |
| <jono> looksaus: best to mail the info address on the shipit site | |
| <jono> then it gets into her mail queue | |
| <looksaus> k, thx | |
| <looksaus> hm, I just discovered there's a new community council meeting tomorrow | |

| <Mirv> anyone happen to know how to disable ubuntu-nn-owner@lists.ubuntu.com posts from being forwarded to the administrator of the list? there's so much spam there that I probably won't notice anything relevant from that address anyway | |
| <Mirv> I have looked through every available mailman option, but none seem to have an effect on that | |
| <JanC> Mirv: I actually enabled that, so I'll be able to find the relevant option, let's see | |
| <JanC> Mirv: """Should the list moderators get immediate notice of new requests, as well as daily notices about collected ones?""" & """Should administrator get notices of subscribes and unsubscribes?""" | |
| <JanC> and maybe some other options too? | |
| <MagicFab> smurf, ping | |
| <Yann2> do someone know who's contact for ubuntu-ru? | |
| <Plug> Yep | |
| <Plug> me | |
| <Plug> oops. | |
| <Plug> please ignore that. :) | |
| <Plug> wrong window! | |
| <Yann2> oh? :] |
