We couldn't see you in the channel at all. 18:38:33 <whippythellama> stmiller: did you want to keep going, or would you like me to take over? 18:38:49 <mhrivnak> We just started the first topic, but haven't said anything about it yet. 18:38:50 <stmiller> You can take over, just starting off Nov mtg items 18:38:51 <whippythellama> yeah, i think my network connection silently dropped :( 18:39:02 <whippythellama> stmiller: gotcha 18:39:12 <whippythellama> and thank you for kicking it off for us! :) 18:39:31 <whippythellama> ok, so has anyone heard anything from anyone other than kevin? 18:40:04 <stmiller> Have not. What about the other Scott person? 18:40:23 <stmiller> Hall 18:40:25 <whippythellama> scott hall - yeah, we've tried two different emails for him 18:40:29 <whippythellama> nothing yet :( 18:40:40 <mhrivnak> Hm. Time for a phone call? 18:40:43 <whippythellama> so *if* no one but kevin shows up to present, i had an idea 18:40:54 <whippythellama> mhrivnak: absolutely, assuming anyone has contact info 18:41:17 <mhrivnak> Do we have phone numbers in our membership DB? 18:41:20 <whippythellama> ...i admit, i haven't gone back to look at his signature on emails to see if it's in there 18:41:40 <whippythellama> yeah, we have one listed 18:42:00 <whippythellama> i'm not going to put it in the meeting record, but it comes up from a member search on steering 18:42:11 <mhrivnak> Sounds good. 18:42:36 <whippythellama> i'll call later this afternoon unless someone else can do it sooner 18:42:40 <whippythellama> i have meetings solid until 4 18:43:07 <mhrivnak> Go for it. ;) 18:43:13 <whippythellama> right :) 18:43:22 <whippythellama> #action whippythellama call scott hall for status 18:43:26 <mhrivnak> Ok sorry to derail- what was your idea? 18:43:55 <whippythellama> no, it's all good - it hadn't occurred to me that we might have his number for some reason 18:44:09 <whippythellama> my idea was having more of a workshop type setup 18:44:20 <whippythellama> let kevin go through his overview, as he planned 18:44:34 <whippythellama> here's what you should buy, here's the software, here's your first signal 18:45:01 <whippythellama> then possibly let people come up (or kevin come out to the group) and see about getting up and running for themselves 18:45:19 <mhrivnak> Sounds interesting. 18:45:29 <whippythellama> there's also the angle of letting kevin run through some different configuration options for the software and what they do 18:45:34 <whippythellama> a bit of a tutorial on it 18:45:47 <whippythellama> or a combination thereof 18:45:51 <mhrivnak> agreed. I bet Kevin could expand his portion pretty easily. 18:45:57 <whippythellama> i believe he could 18:46:23 <whippythellama> and as long as there are nifty graphs dancing on the screen, it will likely keep everyone's attention 18:46:36 <jeremyhwllc> laslo will be there i am fairly certain too 18:46:42 <mhrivnak> heh, so true. 18:46:45 <whippythellama> jeremyhwllc: that's great! 18:46:56 <whippythellama> can you call/email/something to get confirmation on that? 18:47:20 <jeremyhwllc> yes will send text 18:47:27 <jeremyhwllc> and/or call 18:48:33 <whippythellama> i'm still hoping that all the proposed speakers show up, but i'm not terribly confident at this point 18:48:33 <whippythellama> jeremyhwllc: could you set an action for that? 18:48:33 <whippythellama> so who's planning on being there? 18:48:33 <whippythellama> i am 18:48:33 <mhrivnak> me 18:48:43 <qqx> me 18:48:50 <whippythellama> stmiller: you had previously indicated you might not make it - is that still the case? 18:48:55 <jeremyhwllc> #action jeremyhwllc call Laslo from GWT 18:49:02 <stmiller> I am a no 18:49:02 <whippythellama> thank you, jeremyhwllc :) 18:49:09 <whippythellama> ok, gotcha stmiller 18:49:21 <jackhill> question: If I were to donate an rtl-sdr as a doorprize, do you like that idea? 18:49:49 <whippythellama> jackhill: very much so! 18:49:54 <jeremyhwllc> I can pull together some slides to discuss various hack night project ideas perhaps to fill time 18:49:58 <jackhill> awesome 18:50:01 * jackhill clicks order 18:50:11 <whippythellama> got any ideas on how you want to select the winner? 18:50:32 <whippythellama> jeremyhwllc: cool - so i take it you'll be there for the meeting? 18:50:39 <whippythellama> speaking of... who's doing what? 18:50:45 <whippythellama> i can do drinks/plates/napkins again 18:50:53 <mhrivnak> pizzaaaaaaaa 18:50:56 <whippythellama> and record 18:50:59 <whippythellama> lol 18:51:06 <jackhill> not really.

Raffle tickets in food line? 18:51:35 <jeremyhwllc> I plan to be there. 18:51:48 <whippythellama> jeremyhwllc: great! :) 18:51:52 <jeremyhwllc> give to kevin 18:51:57 <whippythellama> jackhill: that's a possibility 18:52:26 <whippythellama> jeremyhwllc: i would agree, but i think it would be superfluous in this case - he *probably* already has one ;) 18:52:44 <jeremyhwllc> gotcha 18:53:00 <whippythellama> and this could get it into the hands of someone who wants to start playing with one 18:53:16 <whippythellama> who wants to emcee? 18:54:14 * mhrivnak looks at whippythellama 18:54:17 <jeremyhwllc> i can do it. major project finished at work should ease my schedule and blood pressure 18:54:19 <whippythellama> i'm happy to 18:54:36 <whippythellama> jeremyhwllc: either way, i'm good - what's your preference? 18:55:00 <whippythellama> if you're still finishing up said project, i can do it 18:55:29 <jeremyhwllc> sounds good 18:55:43 <whippythellama> o_O 18:56:07 <jeremyhwllc> if you take it 18:56:18 <whippythellama> ok, thought that's what you meant :) 18:56:24 <whippythellama> sounds good 18:56:48 <whippythellama> oh, carried over from a reminder... 18:57:07 <whippythellama> #action whippythellama ask about hours and conditions for holding the holiday party at frontier 18:57:29 <whippythellama> everyone please send me any community events you know of that i can add to the slides 18:57:45 <whippythellama> anything else for thursday? 18:57:53 <mhrivnak> nothing here 18:57:58 <whippythellama> i hate to say it, but i have a hard stop at 2 18:58:02 <whippythellama> of all the weeks... 18:58:02 <jeremyhwllc> just received email Laslo cannot make this meeting 18:58:02 <qqx> no 18:58:15 <whippythellama> jeremyhwllc: ok, good to know - thank you for checking! 18:58:37 <whippythellama> jeremyhwllc: if you want, you can send me your hack night ideas and i'll add them to the slides 18:58:55 <whippythellama> ok, i have about 60 secs 18:59:25 <whippythellama> did you all want to continue, or should i end it? 18:59:44 <jeremyhwllc> i need to go too. 18:59:49 <whippythellama> we at least got through the thursday items, which were the most urgent 18:59:56 <whippythellama> jeremyhwllc: ok 19:00:02 <mhrivnak> I'm ok to continue. 19:00:11 <jeremyhwllc> will work on hack night slides 19:00:21 <whippythellama> ok, go for it, mhrivnak 19:00:30 <whippythellama> one of you just end the meeting once you're done :) 19:00:36 <jeremyhwllc> #action jeremyhwllc work on hack night slides 19:00:37 <whippythellama> thanks again for kicking it off, stmiller! 19:00:44 * whippythellama idles 19:00:44 <mhrivnak> ack 19:00:47 <jeremyhwllc> adios 19:00:56 <mhrivnak> stmiller, want to take the wheel? 19:00:59 <stmiller> yeah. I'm available for hack night, if needed 19:01:26 <stmiller> Let's skip to moya items 19:01:30 <mhrivnak> +1 19:01:40 <stmiller> #topic Moya 19:02:03 <qqx> No change since last week. 19:02:27 <qqx> Still need to get around to asking for volunteers to help out, and get the swap scheduled. 19:02:51 <stmiller> qqx, I'm available most any Saturday. I will be here Nov 19 (Sat) at my office if that is a possibility, but maybe too soon to find peeps and schedule. 19:03:41 <qqx> I think that would work for me. 19:04:07 <qqx> If we want to try to get it done this month, wouldn't want to wait any later than that, since Thanksgiving is the following week. 19:04:07 <stmiller> Otherwise Dec 3, 10, 17 are following Saturdays. Maybe I can setup one of those date planner things that whippythellama does to vote on the best available day for persons? 19:04:21 <mhrivnak> I may also be available on the 19th in case help is needed. 19:04:29 <mhrivnak> doodle.com 19:04:34 <stmiller> Ok.
