Which is why I am now including the link to the placeholders in the agenda 18:35:37 <dsmadcow> that works 18:35:47 <raub> So, how many pizzas do you think we will need? 18:36:07 <bdmc> I created those, and told our mailing list, ( steering ), at the end of last year, as I remember. 18:36:22 <bdmc> Noone else seems to know about them 18:36:26 <bdmc> Oh, well. 18:36:31 <raub> bdmc: Sounds like I cheerfully blanked out that email 18:36:49 <raub> but I think I got it this time by just including the links 18:36:53 <bdmc> I haven't looked at the counts on Meetup, yet. 18:37:01 <dsmadcow> 6 including me 18:37:14 <bdmc> Do we want a "regular" or a "large" pizza order? 18:37:22 <raub> Regular at best 18:37:24 <bdmc> Or do we wait until Wednesday? 18:37:36 <raub> Wednesday is a good idea 18:37:37 <dfrustaglio> I agree, regular 18:37:44 <dsmadcow> yea regular, that is valintens day as well so we may have a low turnout 18:38:05 <raub> Exactly 18:38:11 <bdmc> I see six and six. How much duplication is that? 18:39:13 <raub> Side note: did you see the humblebundle link in triembed? 18:39:24 <dsmadcow> I did not 18:39:27 <raub> bdmc: I would have to login again 18:39:35 <bdmc> Looking at the two lists, there might be a couple of duplicates, but not many. 18:39:40 <raub> dsmadcow: ROS, MQTT, RPI, Lego Mindstorms, Python Robotics, etc 18:39:59 <dsmadcow> I will have to check that out. 18:40:10 <raub> We could let people know either in the list or meeting 18:41:07 <raub> dsmadcow: what is the plan for hacknights? 18:41:09 <bdmc> Let's see what Wednesday looks like. So you think that our audience is interested in Valentine's Day? 18:41:17 <raub> I should be able to be there 18:41:31 <raub> bdmc: there are many jokes about that one 18:41:47 <dfrustaglio> VD depends on spouse and girlfriends 18:42:01 <dsmadcow> I am wating for a response form Caktus Group to the email I sent out today then I will put out a meetup. Plan to do more Linux and some sysadmin Linux stuff on teh 21st 18:42:20 <bdmc> Sounds like fun. 18:42:42 <dsmadcow> BDMC I don't know about that but some may not havce a choice 18:42:51 <raub> Yep. I/we should let the issa crowd know about that 18:43:03 <raub> dsmadcow: I do expect low turnout 18:43:24 <bdmc> dsmadcow: COMPLETELY off topic, you are in Sanford, aren't you. See anything interesting in the way of houses for rent, down there? ( 3+ bed 2 bath, ideally ) 18:43:55 <dsmadcow> might be, I know there are several for sale or rent in my nabighood. 18:44:19 <dsmadcow> you thinking about moveing down here? 18:44:22 <raub> dsmadcow: price range insane or ludricous? 18:44:43 <bdmc> May not have much choice. Prices in Wake are too high for anything reasonable. 18:44:50 <dsmadcow> should not be bad down here, but I am not sure what they are running as I have not looked into it 18:45:03 <raub> Gotcha 18:45:06 <raub> Moving on, 18:45:12 <raub> #topic Future Topics 18:46:12 <raub> For the kubernettes event, IBM told me we can provide the link to get their kubernetes ebook 18:46:29 <raub> I will let Mohammed know if he does not already 18:46:32 <bdmc> That's nice. 18:46:36 <dsmadcow> nice 18:46:44 <bdmc> I got the Humble Bundle e-mail directly. 18:46:52 <dsmadcow> Also we need to add SELF to teh other events section. 18:46:56 <bdmc> ( I know, old topic. ) 18:47:01 <raub> My thoughts exactly 18:47:18 <bdmc> Do you know the dates? 18:47:19 <raub> dsmadcow: Good catch. I know I do not even know the times 18:47:22 <raub> and dates 18:47:41 <dsmadcow> SELF 7 to 9 Jun 18:48:00 <bdmc> Somebody is on top of things! 18:48:08 * raub bows at dsmadcow 18:48:15 <raub> dsmadcow: do you have the Arafa <maarafa@us.ibm.com> 18:48:27 <raub> Er, let me try again 18:48:29 <dsmadcow> no I do not 18:48:51 <raub> dsmadcow: do you have the Jack Neely info as he will be the sponsor for next month? 18:48:56 <raub> We still have plenty of time 18:49:24 <dsmadcow> nope I don't 18:49:27 <bdmc> But I don't want to wait until the last minute, again. 18:49:35 <raub> Yeah 18:49:56 <bdmc> Beginning of the month or earlier for the first announcements, I would think. 18:50:07 <raub> We should also ping Chris Russo again to see if he isstill game for April 18:50:11 <bdmc> We keep scrambling to get it out before the meeting. 18:50:24 <raub> bdmc: agreed 18:50:28 <bdmc> I will send him a note today, although it should be good. 18:50:35 <dsmadcow> for next month? I would say send the announcement out begininng of next week if we have it. 18:51:09 <dfrustaglio> back now, was chatting with my boss 18:51:25 <raub> Did Mohammed send us the blurb and bio? 18:52:25 <raub> If nobody knows I can ping him 18:53:10 <raub> In any case, we seem to have talks up to may and theoretically content for almost the rest of the year. But we will need to start probing the speakers 18:53:59 <bdmc> Agreed. I can put in the rest of the placeholders in the next day or two. 18:54:18 <raub> Now, for the groups we keep listing in the slides, who are our contacts? 18:54:41 <raub> We might as well offer them the opportunity to send us announcements or come in and give them in person 18:55:40 <bdmc> Does anybody remember when Mark said that he might be available, and want to come advertise NetActuate? 18:55:45 <raub> For instance cackalackycon.org (DC919) is in the CFP phase right now. I don't know about SELF 18:56:18 <raub> bdmc: can you give me more data so I might be able to remember? 18:56:18 <bdmc> I just went to the SELF website, and it is still talking about 2018. 18:56:38 <raub> bdmc: you know the people who run it.
