Clayton Coleman of openshift. 18:04:54 I joined the Linux from scratch mailing list and said we were looking for a presenter. So far crickets 18:05:02 I pinged him this morning and reminded him that we need a summary/bio. 18:05:10 @jeremyhwllc++ 18:05:23 thank you, mhrivnak 18:05:33 @mhrivnak++ 18:05:35 :) 18:06:12 mhrivnak: do you want me to send you a copy of the drink receipt, or take it from the donation jar? 18:06:21 i'm good either way 18:06:25 we should be able to scrounge up some RAspberry Pi folks from The Triembed group and Splatspace 18:06:37 jeremyhwllc: that would be great 18:06:47 whippythellama, send me the receipt. 18:06:52 mhrivnak: u got it 18:06:57 we can still reimburse you from the cash. 18:07:12 ah, so a bit of both, then :) 18:07:20 works for me - i'll send it 18:07:30 jeremyhwllc: I expect that we might be able to get some Splatters out for the 3D printing talk in April to recruit from/advertise with. 18:07:42 jeremyhwllc: do you have contacts in triembed? 18:07:54 i know we get periodic announcements for their meetups 18:08:03 a few contacts yes 18:08:13 did you want to reach out there? 18:08:34 jackhill: that would be great - did you have anyone in mind? 18:08:39 I plan to reach out this week 18:08:51 cool! want to take an action for that? 18:09:00 yes please 18:09:36 whippythellama: Unfortunatley not. I think Pete Soper does the posts to our list and organises the Rasberry Pi, Arduino, and Friends workshop (this week conflicting with the hack night) 18:09:51 #action jeremyhwllc talk to triembed folks about possible raspberry pi talks 18:10:55 jackhill: sorry, i'm not certain what you're addressing 18:11:11 whippythellama: if I had anyone in mind 18:11:14 aaah 18:11:33 whippythellama: wait were you asking about Pi or 3D printing? 18:12:07 you had brought up the 3d printing talk; that's what i was asking about :) 18:12:12 also, this isn't really "February recap" 18:12:15 lol 18:12:17 very true 18:12:26 I also plan to reach out to Jeremy Sands, organizer of South East Linux Fest, to see if he can put me in touch with their Linux From Scratch presenter a few years ago 18:12:28 hang on 18:12:35 whippythellama: ooh, yes, I have confirmed Clinton (unknown_lamer) to talk about his 3D printing adventures in April. 18:12:41 I beleive I even updated the wiki 18:12:42 #topic March Meeting and Future Topics 18:12:44 there 18:12:57 @jackhill++ 18:12:58 woot! 18:13:00 @jeremyhwllc++ 18:13:08 thank you, jeremyhwllc 18:13:30 #action jeremyhwllc reach out to Jeremy Sands re: Linux From Scratch speaker 18:13:35 just for tracking 18:14:25 so jackhill - on the 3d printing topic; did you have someone in mind when you mentioned involving some splatters in recruitment and advertising? 18:15:52 I can advertise with Splat. They have a pretty active 3D printing group, that I hope will come to the metting, and I was thinking that if we wanted to do a RPi talk soon, they might have someone who could talk or at least advertise the event, since there would be overlapping interest. 18:16:12 aah - gotcha 18:16:26 i agree, definitely 18:17:02 ok, any other comments, actions, etc on this? 18:17:12 none here 18:17:24 nope 18:17:33 #topic February Hack Night 18:17:46 i *think* i'll be able to make it 18:17:52 who else? 18:17:55 eronel and I plan to be there. 18:18:04 awesome! 18:18:14 Can someone send out a reminder? 18:18:29 yeah, i was going to mention that 18:18:31 I dont know if I can be there. I can do the reminders 18:18:36 thank you, jeremyhwllc 18:18:38 I likely won't be able to make it. 18:19:03 ok, mhrivnak 18:19:43 so jeremyhwllc, what we've been doing is updating the site and sending an announcement for hack night within a day or two after the speaker meeting 18:19:58 with a follow up announcement the day of hack night 18:20:36 we didn't want to post the update or send any earlier to avoid confusing anyone who doesn't read their announcements too closely :) 18:20:52 yeah I dropped the ball on that. will try to get a reminder out tonight 18:21:00 no worries 18:21:03 no worries, not a big deal 18:21:58 sorry, didn't mean that to seem lecture-y or anything - just mentioning what we'd been doing :) 18:22:14 #action jeremyhwllc update the site for hack night 18:22:21 #action jeremyhwllc send announcements for hack night 18:22:29 dude, you're collecting those :) 18:23:05 jackhill: do you have an idea of what you'd like to be done on hack night? 18:23:19 need to change my nick to hashtag action :-) 18:23:30 lol 18:23:47 whippythellama: my top priority is to get the pilot VM to provide the pilot services. 18:23:59 http://professionalsuperhero.com/ 18:24:09 And maybe update the mail certs if that's not done before then. 18:24:18 excellent 18:24:52 The more detail we can communicate in the announcement about what needs to get done, the more people will show up to help. 18:25:02 agreed, mhrivnak 18:25:11 jackhill: can you get jeremyhwllc a brief summary? 18:25:17 sure 18:25:26 thanks! :) 18:25:27 #action jackhill send summary to steering@ 18:25:42 Dare I ask where we stand with issue tracking? :) 18:25:48 sure.... 18:25:55 #topic Action Updates 18:25:56 :) 18:25:59 Where do we stand with issue tracking? ;) 18:26:01 lol 18:26:22 i've narrowed it down to a couple, that i'm poking about with 18:26:50 wekan https://wekan.io/ 18:27:03 apache bloodhound http://bloodhound.apache.org/ 18:27:32 and bugger if i can remember the third :/ 18:27:54 i'm almost ready to poll you all for your thoughts on them 18:28:03 most of the others i've found are hosted 18:28:13 Sounds good. Or perhaps poll the attendees at the hack night. 18:28:21 that's a good idea 18:28:25 or both. 18:28:29 indeed :) 18:28:56 i'm leaning toward something local on pilot rather than hosted on a 3rd party site, but i'm open to discussion on that 18:29:12 all open/free, in any case, tho 18:29:46 sounds good. 18:29:55 @whippythellama++ 18:30:02 #action whippythellama finish the darn evaluation of ticketing apps, already 18:30:37 we're running pretty short on time - does anyone else have old actions they need to give an update on? 18:30:47 I have to hop on a meeting now. 18:30:56 ok, thanks mhrivnak! 18:31:03 no alibis here 18:31:16 I'll just remind that I sent an email a little while ago (maybe a couple weeks?) about the durham LUG, and the possibility of us getting in touch. 18:31:28 mhrivnak: quite right, i dropped that one 18:31:33 I don't recall seeing further discussion, so I'll just "bump" that topic for your thoughts... 18:31:40 #action whippythellama get in touch with durham lug, per mhrivnak's email 18:31:51 sorry about that 18:32:17 any general business anyone, or shall we call it done here? 18:32:33 none from me 18:32:44 none here 18:32:55 ok, cool 18:33:02 thanks, everyone! 18:33:05 #endmeeting
