I'm sure we can conscript a some cleanup volunteers. 16:39:48 i still have a copy of last time's slides (pre-final edit) that i can modify for this time 16:39:50 jackhill: it shouldn't be too hard to get someone to help cleanup. :) 16:40:01 mhrivnak: thanks! 16:40:42 I may end up delivering the sponsor pitch also. 16:40:52 #action whippythellama print and post signs 16:40:56 I'm trying to get someone more important to come, but so far no luck. :) 16:40:59 whippythellama: i just emailed the template 16:41:16 #action whippythellama edit slides 16:41:31 thanks, IsharaComix! 16:41:41 all right. pizza, drinks, MC, signs, slides, cleanup, sponsor… I think we've got it all 16:41:49 Trilug phone number: https://steering.trilug.org/wiki/index.php/TriLUG_Phone 16:41:54 jackhill++ 16:41:55 voicemail information coming later 16:42:00 thanks, jackhill! 16:42:12 you're welcome 16:42:24 All righty. Shall we move on through the agenda? 16:42:28 +1 16:42:34 +1 16:42:47 #topic November speaker 16:43:28 So we seem to be having an issue with getting this speaker confirmed, so Bill believes it is a smart idea to get a backup 16:43:29 I had an idea for a meeting we could perhaps pull togeather on short notice: 16:43:34 go for it 16:43:59 Use your'e editor more productivly (like Brian's user your shell more effectively talk) 16:44:07 hmm 16:44:17 is this your talk or someone you know? 16:45:16 It's just my idea. We would need to drum up speakers, but I was hoping that the pool of potential speakers for that topic would be larger. 16:45:35 Plus it could be two half talks: vim and emacs :) 16:45:44 I could do vim 16:45:44 we could cross that with a lightning talk theme 16:45:46 i see, it's certainly an area that's easy to get passionate people to get started on 16:45:59 five minutes to highlight your favorite editor trick 16:46:00 hey, I'm back 16:46:12 we just did lightning talks a bit back, not sure I want to cop out like that 16:46:14 or something of that nature 16:46:16 I will ping Eric again now and CC steering 16:46:19 billf: :D 16:46:55 agreed, IsharaComix - just thinking it might be easier to pull together in short order 16:47:09 jackhill: it's certainly a nice and approachable topic for more novice members 16:47:26 maybe we can try and drum up some ideas at trilug/trichug tomorrow 16:48:07 I bet we would get a number of volunteers to show off their setup. 16:48:10 IsharaComix: sounds good 16:48:18 that was my thought, mhrivnak 16:48:39 If we get really desparate, I'm doing at OpenAFS talk for UNC this month and could do a re-run of that. 16:48:39 OK. jackhill if you're taking point, let steering know what you come up with. 16:48:54 I'd be interested in seeing that, personally. 16:48:56 IsharaComix: gatcha 16:49:04 er, gotcha 16:49:06 :) 16:49:10 #topic New Meeting time 16:49:21 So schedules have adjusted and what once worked no longer works. 16:49:34 Jack and Bill have already filled out my form: 16:49:39 http://whenisgood.net/qp39zcy 16:49:45 * mhrivnak also filled it out 16:49:46 i filled in the form earlier today 16:49:49 Thanks! 16:50:28 * IsharaComix is data-mining on his laptop right now and it is very slow 16:50:32 IsharaComix, I filled it out very soon after you sent it. Did my response get submitted successfully? 16:50:50 oh, i have mhrivnak, not jack hill 16:51:29 Right now, lunch on non-wednesdays looks good to a lot of people 16:51:30 let me know if mine didn't come through 16:51:49 whippythellama: i have yours - you can see results here results 16:51:55 http://whenisgood.net/qp39zcy/results/cxi2j9t 16:52:10 thanks! 16:52:10 IsharaComix: I'll fill it out later today 16:52:24 i'd prefer mon/tue to thurs or fri 16:52:41 perhaps we can choose another time by email, before next week? 16:52:41 gives us a meeting a day or two before the monthly meetups 16:52:41 Thanks. I would actually be partial to 1 PM on Tuesday. 16:52:56 that works for me 16:53:17 Let's let Jack fill his answer and I'll schedule next week's meeting at the new time, so be ready. :) 16:53:18 13:00 Tue works for me as well :) 16:53:28 Oh? Do we want to go with that? 16:53:35 sure 16:53:57 OK, the next meeting will be 13:00 next Tuesday. 16:54:08 That fits nicely right after class for me. :) 16:54:19 already moved it on my calendar 16:54:31 #topic Trilug Workshop 16:54:45 Is this workshop for further fixing of Short or something I'm missing? 16:55:23 fixing the website, wiki, etc 16:55:48 ldap has been enabled, but we need groups and access controls 16:55:53 OK, and are we doing this in person, online, or blended? 16:56:07 blended is fine. 16:56:10 agreed 16:56:24 whippythellama: were you trying to get a room at webassign for this? 16:56:28 agreed, but I'll probably try to meet with people because I like that :) 16:56:40 IsharaComix - i can, sure 16:56:48 same 16:56:58 depends on date/time 16:57:18 All right. I think the best thing to do is pick a date, and if we can publicize it at the meeting tomorrow, we can get the best attendance. Maybe we can even poll the crowd for favorite dates? 16:57:56 that works, though we'll probably do better if we have a list of candidate dates to choose from 16:58:23 Good point. Anyone want to take point on this and coordinate with whippythellama to get them on the slides? 16:59:33 I'm out of town on the 18-19 16:59:36 should we do a doodle for potential dates? 16:59:56 I'm out of town 10/20 - 11/4 16:59:59 i'll be unavailable 10/22-10/27 17:00:08 whippythellama: i say go ahead and make one, and if everyone could please find some time tonight to fill it out, that'd be swell 17:00:10 and halloween is Right Out 17:00:15 maybe we need to start with an online weeknight evening first 17:00:54 we can do that, and i should be able to get us in at webassign for it 17:01:02 we already host a number of meetups 17:01:04 in the evenings 17:01:05 OH on that topic, this is the OSS trello clone I mentioned previously that might be valuable as an issue tracker: https://github.com/onepiecejs/nodejs-cantas 17:01:10 I suggest making the doodle poll for the last two weeks of the month. 17:01:12 I'll send an email with that link also. 17:01:18 mhrivnak: oooooo :) 17:01:40 plenty of time for everyone to plan ahead 17:01:49 OK ya'll, we're over time. 17:01:58 #action whippythellama to make a doodle and send it to the steering list 17:02:10 I have to run, see y'all tomorrow 17:02:16 By-o 17:02:33 #endmeeting
