19:28:26 <obgr_seneca> trishf42: you can do, but it's mostly a suggestion 19:28:37 <trishf42> ok, np 19:28:53 <obgr_seneca> I would propose now, that I try and contact as many of the local communities I know about 19:29:02 <obgr_seneca> Let's say in the next two weeks 19:29:10 <marja> obgr_seneca: fine :) 19:29:13 <ennael> nice 19:29:42 <ennael> as Mageia is having second release we can say now we include fully users community 19:29:42 <obgr_seneca> It would be nice to get a mailing list but I don't know a good name... 19:29:55 <remmy> lokotoko 19:29:59 <marja> grinz 19:30:02 <ennael> outch 19:30:18 <marja> remmy: in Spanish, loco = crazy 19:30:24 <obgr_seneca> Ubuntu is using "loco" and I don't know if we should copy that name 19:30:32 <remmy> marja: All the more fitting :P 19:30:35 <Stormi> obgr_seneca: simply "communities"? 19:30:39 <sebsebseb> obgr_seneca: I have had the IRC channel for a long time, but would like to set something more proper up local communitywise for the UK in the future :). 19:30:46 <remmy> I like Stormi's suggestion 19:30:57 <ennael> well 19:31:02 <ennael> mageia is a community 19:31:05 <ennael> including local one :) 19:31:11 <marja> :) 19:31:15 <obgr_seneca> yep, that's the problem 19:31:31 <Stormi> the plural shows it's made of various parts 19:31:42 <Stormi> but I see your point 19:31:45 <ennael> mageia-locales ? 19:31:45 <rda_> fellows? folks? 19:31:46 <ennael> oups 19:31:47 <trishf42> is mageia-local too long? 19:31:48 <obgr_seneca> let's say, anybody coming up with a good name, just drop me a note somehow? 19:31:52 <sebsebseb> Ubuntu use loco to mean for Ubuntu in particular, instead of a general LUG (Linux Users Group) for example. 19:31:58 <remmy> fellowship of the cauldron 19:32:03 <trishf42> 8-) 19:32:05 <marja> remmy: nice 19:32:11 <ennael> too long 19:32:19 <trishf42> cauldroneers 19:32:23 <Stormi> or user-communities 19:32:25 <Stormi> then 19:32:26 <Stormi> :) 19:32:37 <marja> :) 19:32:49 <obgr_seneca> Stormi: I like that best till now... 19:33:01 <boklm> Stormi: I think it's not only for users 19:33:17 <ennael> rather underline local side 19:33:24 <ennael> it may include also devs 19:33:25 <remmy> groupies@ 19:33:30 <ennael> :) 19:33:33 <trishf42> 8-) 19:33:39 <obgr_seneca> local@ 19:33:57 <marja> obgr_seneca: good 19:34:01 <trishf42> how to differentiate? country codes won't always work 19:34:27 <obgr_seneca> trishf42: we search the name for the central ml and portal right now 19:34:36 <boklm> local-discuss@ for discussions about local communities 19:34:42 <obgr_seneca> the existing local communities already have their names 19:34:53 <trishf42> like local-discuss 19:34:57 <trishf42> that's nice 19:35:05 <obgr_seneca> mageiabr or mlo... 19:35:09 <boklm> so "local" could be the name of the team 19:35:12 <Stormi> discuss has a connotation of "discussing and doing nothing" :) 19:35:27 <Stormi> I mean, no decision power 19:35:27 <ennael> Stormi: french connotation :) 19:35:38 <ennael> latin at least :p 19:35:38 <marja> local-team ? 19:35:49 <obgr_seneca> I think the "-discuss suffix is good, where there is also a -bugs ml 19:36:02 <remmy> The local minority :P 19:36:03 <obgr_seneca> but here I would just take local@ml.mageia.org 19:36:30 <ennael> can we decide name on ML not sleep on this? 19:36:37 <obgr_seneca> and for the portal I suggested in the wiki local.mageia.org 19:36:38 <ennael> then just list what is needed to help obgr_seneca 19:36:52 <Stormi> what "locality" is that of the international forum? 19:36:53 <boklm> there could be bugs for local community, or commit mailing lists, etc ... 19:37:19 <ennael> carefull with multiplying ML 19:37:38 <ennael> it has to be clear when people looking for information about mageia 19:38:02 <ennael> (old girl speaking :p) 19:38:56 <obgr_seneca> ok 19:39:16 <obgr_seneca> let's postpone that naming discussion? 19:39:22 <Stormi> ok 19:39:23 <ennael> yep 19:39:27 <sebsebseb> yep 19:39:31 <ennael> it does not prevent to go on that topic 19:39:35 <ennael> on 19:39:54 <obgr_seneca> So I would do some work on a portal page for the local communities 19:40:27 <obgr_seneca> I would like to have a sub domain for it but we can also discuss that in the coming days on the ml 19:40:55 <obgr_seneca> Let's say, get the naming and the portal page done until the end of the week 19:41:30 <obgr_seneca> And I will try and get in touch with the local communities I know of then? 19:41:41 <trishf42> sounds good to me! 19:41:47 <sebsebseb> and me 19:41:50 <marja> yep 19:42:03 <boklm> ok 19:42:08 <ennael> ok 19:42:11 <trishf42> obgr_seneca: can you ping marcom, so we know what to add in the release announcements?

We should have our part done before our meeting Wednesday - don't know where artwork is exactly, but they've begun their part. 19:49:23 <trishf42> #2 is the texts for the release. We know more or less what we have to write, and we'll be doing a piratepad this week to get the main part together. 19:49:36 <trishf42> should have something for everyone to look at by next meeting. 19:49:56 <trishf42> the only other thing is: what is needed for the website? last release we did quite a few pages... 19:51:19 <rda_> nothing more than previous release 19:51:30 <rda_> maybe even less, it's up to you 19:52:14 <trishf42> I'd love it if some people would drop into the marcom meeting this week and talk with us about it. 19:52:25 <trishf42> consider yourselves invited! 19:52:28 <sebsebseb> yep that would be good :) 19:52:28 <boklm> when is it ? 19:52:38 <trishf42> Wednesday 1900 UTC 19:52:42 <boklm> ok 19:52:52 <trishf42> it's our week (we alternate with artwork) 19:53:03 <rda_> I'm afraid I have another meeting at that time, but I can try. 19:53:12 <obgr_seneca> I will try 19:53:13 <trishf42> anyway, that's where marcom is at. We've got some nice energetic people - at last! 8-) 19:53:28 <marja> :) 19:55:07 <ennael> ok 19:55:20 <ennael> sysadmin ? boklm ? 19:56:11 <boklm> ok 19:56:36 <boklm> so for sysadmin there was a meeting recently 19:56:45 <boklm> #url http://meetbot.mageia.org/mageia-sysadm/2012/mageia-sysadm.2012-03-15-20.06.html 19:58:03 <boklm> main things are : 19:58:29 <boklm> - finding new server sponsoring 19:58:35 <boklm> - setup of backups 19:58:42 <boklm> - setup of arm build system 19:58:53 <boklm> - backports setup, for release 2 19:59:08 <boklm> - setup of VMs server 19:59:21 <boklm> - mailing list migration (after release 2) 19:59:33 <boklm> - forums upgrade 20:00:26 <boklm> and I think that's all at the moment 20:00:38 <remmy> fix transifex :P 20:00:53 <marja> bugzilla upgrade ;) 20:01:03 <obgr_seneca> remmy: or replace it after release 20:01:09 <boklm> ah yes 20:01:22 <ennael> ok 20:01:24 <remmy> Yeah, notepads and a secretary would work :) 20:01:30 <ennael> what about todo list for release ?
