Actually, if I hadn't asked, that wiki page probably wouldn't have been updated yet... ;) So, yes, I ordered the free box of CDs. -- Jan Claeys -- ubuntu-be mailing list / mailto:ubuntu-be@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-be

Dat kan zeker, als iemand dat wil organiseren. :) (We hebben het in februari ook al gedaan naar aanleiding van de inkopen die we deden voor FOSDEM, en waarschijnlijk doen we dit jaar weer voor FOSDEM, dus je kan eventueel ook wachten tot dan.) [English explanation] Martijn asks if it's okay to do a group order of stuff from the Ubuntu store. Of course that's okay if someone organises it! ;) We did this for FOSDEM 2009 already, and probably will do it again for FOSDEM 2010, so Martijn can also wait until then (whatever he & others prefer). -- Jan Claeys -- ubuntu-be mailing list / mailto:ubuntu-be@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-be
[Ubuntu-be] IRC meeting report 21/10/2009
IRC meeting report Present at the IRC meeting 21/10/2009 (in random order) : carharttguy, tim, JanC, jean7491, hfsdo, Gh0sty, siegie, pvandewyngaerde1, ertai02 1. Past and future events a. Dipro fair in Ostend 18/10 It was a small fair, with a lot of contacts. The full report is in the wiki. b. Next events in October - Dipro fair in Oostmalle 25/10 During the last IRC meeting it was decided to cancel the participation to the Dipro fair in Oostmalle, due to the lack of volunteers. At the end of the current meeting, with the reinforcement of the team by ertai02 and the wishes of hfsdo and siegie, it is decided to organize a booth in Oostmalle next week-end. c. Next events in November (Dipro fair Ghent, Release Party Ghent, Dipro fair Antwerp) - Dipro fair in Ghent 08/11 The preparation was started with kenneth as coordinator. Volunteers (especially Ghent area) please add your names in the wiki. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/ComputerFairs/Ghent_2009-11-08 carharttguy will likely come to help. - Release party in Ghent 21/11 We need volunteers helping for the organization/preparation of the party: people from the Ghent area are firstly concerned with this event. We need a working-group of volunteers in charge of the event, mike and schwarz_p are already in the group but not yet active : who else will join the group? If we don't hear from the people who are supposed to organise the release party in Ghent, we could also decide to organize it somewhere else (if people in another place want to do it)? carharttguy would like to help at release party in Ghent. - Dipro fair Antwerp 29/11 The coordinator (bram) started the preparation and several volunteers were contacted. tim maybe want to help. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/ComputerFairs/Antwerpen_2009-11-29 We face a problem to move promotion material and some hardware from Ostend to Antwerp. Suggestions are welcome! 2, Promotion material a. Event boxes - Ghent: the statute of the Event box is not yet clarified: the material is necessary for the next Dipro fair in Ghent. - Antwerp: with the multiplication of events in Antwerp area, a new event box will be created. We have desktops, but need two (large, if possible) lcd screens. Any proposition? b. Others ideas for promotion material We need a new printout for 9.10 cd sleeves we print for fairs: the official artwork will be up soon. Additionally, with the arrival of Karmic Koala, we need to update the standard presentation with a new slide on 9.10. If someone can collect ideas (basic level for Dipro fairs), please send a mail with proposals to jean7491. 3. Things living in the Mailing List Support points - reliability and update. As already stated, we need to update the support map as the lack of reaction of support points gives a negative image of Ubuntu community. Pierre, who was managing the map, wrote :"The current site is a dead end." He does not have enough time at hand for another project based on drupal. His proposal is to remove the current map website. and eventually to use the actual database as it is. The removal of the current map without replacement could give a wrong idea of the willingness of Ubuntu-be to support newcomers. The availability of local help is is one of our best arguments to convince beginners. We should maintain a kind of support points network, where beginners can find help when needed. It should not be a one man task, but a team work of several people. Any comment? (in the mailing list) 4.

[Ubuntu-be] Samenkoop
Zou het niet interessant zijn om eens een samenkoop te organiseren in de Ubuntu Store? Ik heb alvast interesse in een paar zaken, maar de verzending kost bijna meer dan de artikels. Kan dit eventueel via de wiki opgezet worden? Ik zou de termijn wel beperken tot 2 weken (max 1 maand). mvg, Martijn -- ubuntu-be mailing list / mailto:ubuntu-be@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-be

[Ubuntu-be] Getting Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) CDs
Hi, As you may know, it appears it's now impossible for old-timers to get free Ubuntu 9.10 CDs from ShipIt. CDs are available to individual in small quantity and previous releases CDs are taken into account. So if you, like many, ordered some CDs for the previous releases, you wont be able to get more. But; as a LoCo, we can get a free CD (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingCds). Our Team Contact is Jan Claeys and if he hadn't yet ordered our CDs I'm pretty sure he will do it right now (the deadline for early orders is tomorrow, Oct. 23rd). Also, I don't know if some of us are Ubuntu Members (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership) but they can also order more CDs for us. As for previous releases, people receiving CDs and those needing them (mainly for events) can coordinate transport and delivery right here, on the mailing list. The ETA for ShipIt's CDs is two weeks after the Karmic's release date which is scheduled on October 29th. So if you need CDs before mid November, you will have to use previous release or to burn the Karmic ISO. -- Pierre Buyle -- ubuntu-be mailing list / mailto:ubuntu-be@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-be

Re: [Ubuntu-be] Computer day
Ubuntu ShipIt say this when I try to get 200CDs : Demand for Ubuntu CDs is very high, and we're trying to ensure that we have enough CDs for those who really need one. We've noticed that you've already received CDs of several previous Ubuntu releases. You can help us ensure the continued availability of Ubuntu CDs by * upgrading to the new release without a CD * downloading your own CD for free * becoming an Ubuntu member by contributing to Ubuntu, and thereby becoming eligible for more CDs Thanks for your support of Ubuntu! I don't know how to do to get CD for Computer Day ??!! -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Computer-day-tp3816138p3870674.html Sent from the Ubuntu-be mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- ubuntu-be mailing list / mailto:ubuntu-be@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-be
