We only had 30hrs starting at COB Friday to respond? I think 2 clear business days would be far more appropriate. Peter's proposed date and time wasn't included. This time had 1 person support it on the list. Meetings are not always the most inclusive or efficient way of discussing issues and progressing them. The mailing list provides a far more flexible forum for people to participate in the discussion/debate. I would suggest that we stick to the regular meeting cycle as proposed by Peter and in the intervening 3 weeks or so we try to develop some consensus around the issues, rather rush a meeting so issues can be railroaded.

As someone who has a lot of experience of FOSS communities and community groups in general, I feel that I have some responsibility to point out when I feel that people are making mistakes. This was one of those occasions. So as far as I'm concerned the meeting will go ahead as published... I don't think that is a very good idea if you want it to have much credibility.

Brisbane Ubuntu Community Meeting - 7th February, 2010.
A very late write-up from our most recent meeting. Enjoy. --- The second Brisbane Ubuntu community meeting was held at Gilhooley's Chermside, a typical Irish style pub. As I was the nominated meeting organiser for the event so I got there early, ordered a Kilkenny and sat back to wait for folks to arrive. I found myself scrutinising everyone that walked past to see if I could identify if the person was an ubuntu user. Not sure what I was thinking; that by using ubuntu we are all somehow develop a power to be able to instantly recognise another member of the tribe. Anyway my powers were on the fritz that day as all I managed to do was get some odd looks from some poor people that where wandering around just trying to find the loo. Do we ubuntu users need to come up with a secret signal so that we can pick each other out in public? What a relief when I recognised someone from our previous meeting. Andrew was at the other side of the room near the bar scanning the area for signs of ubuntu geeks. At about the same time a couple of other ubuntu-ers arrived and the combination of swivelling heads and searching looks and my vigorous arm waving must have been enough of a signal to everyone that like minded people were in the area and we were all soon seated and making introductions. The last couple of attendees to arrive seemed to have no trouble finding us. Might have been due to the laptops and other gadgets that had appeared soon after we were all seated. It was great to see a 50% increase in attendance for this meeting. There were six of us at the meeting! Fingers crossed we can match this growth for our next meeting. After we completed the introductions everyone started talking about their favourite topic, tech. There were a number of different conversations at the same time, here is a list of the ones I was apart of, or caught snippets of: - Conroy's filter plans ( what's a gathering without a bit of political chat) - Calendar synchronisation - How to secure home environments with tools that work with ubuntu - Options for ditching itunes for teenagers with iPods. - Are we brave enough to install Ubuntu on relatives computers? Packages/products discussed: - ispconfig - amsn - atunes - xaile - quickcad - spyspurt - GNOME configuration cleanup tool - name? - randr.com - Lenovo D10 server Just before we pulled stumps Paul asked each of us What is the one thing you would change about Ubuntu if you could? Here are the answers everyone gave: Cary: combined DVD of all *buntu, no need to carry separate CDs for server, desktop, Kubuntu, etc. Andrew: fix the regressions, esp. laptop power management David: iPod/Nokia/electronic device support James: added onto Andrew's point on laptop power management; more intuitive keychain password management when passwords change Nigel: slick shared calendar across all desktop apps Paul: compelling web admin interface for directory/file sharing/email/calendar setup; Active Directory Exchange are killing us in this space Just before everyone went their own way we agreed our goal should be to all have ubuntu tee shirts so that we at least can find each other and hopefully raise the profile of ubuntu at our next gathering. We finished the meeting at about 5pm. Three hours goes fast when you having fun. I had a great time geeking out with a group of like minded people and am looking forward to our next gathering. Hopefully we can lure more ubuntu users and people who are curious about ubuntu and open source in general to our next meeting. The list of attendees and where they travelled from to attend: Andrew - Mt Gravatt James - Mcdowall Nigel - Hendra Cary - Wamuran (Caboolture) David - Springfield Paul - Birkdale Thanks to Paul for taking notes during the meeting.

I would be happy to see it postponed, 'though I do have some thoughts engendered by a couple off recent events. Y'know how Windows, Office, etc users always seem to have a go-to-guy they can get help from? Like the bloke/blokess down the street whom they can ring for help? Maybe someone from school/college/work? Well we don't have that sort of penetration into the community at that basic user level. If we want to take Ubuntu and OOo in particular to the next level of public acceptance we need to find those sort of go-to-people.

(fwd) [first_tuesday] Next meeting - Tuesday 5th February, 2008 - Andrew Shugg on Linux Bare Metal Recovery (Mondo Rescue)
Hello, Ubuntuers in Perth may be interested in a presentation I am giving next Tuesday on bare-metal system recovery with Mondo Rescue - details attached. It's not Ubuntu-specific but works just as well on Ubuntu systems as on Debian, Fedora, RHEL, SuSE, Gentoo, etc... =) Thanks, Andrew S. -- Andrew Shugg [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.neep.com.au/ Just remember, Mr Fawlty, there's always someone worse off than yourself. Is there? Well I'd like to meet him. I could do with a good laugh. ---BeginMessage--- Hi all, Another late meeting notice... sorry. But you all knew it was coming, didn't you? == AUUG Western Australian Chapter Meeting and SAGE-AU Western Australian Chapter Meeting - 5th February 2008 - This month's meeting is sponsored and presented by: ** SAGE-AU: The System Administrators Guild of Australia ** == DATE: Tuesday February 5th, 2008 TIME: 6:00 PM (drinks), 6:30 PM (meeting) VENUE: Moon and Sixpence British Pub 300 Murray St Perth 6000 .: AGENDA :. [6:00pm] Meet for drinks and chat at The Stables in the rear of the pub. The area is roped off with signage announcing the meeting. [6:25pm] Migration to the Raine Room of the adjoining Comfort Inn. [6:30pm] Welcome Weekly War Stories. [6:35pm] Meeting commences. This month's topic is Linux Bare Metal Recovery (Mondo Rescue), presented by Andrew Shugg. Hopefully all of you who came to the November 2007 meeting for the presentation of StorageCraft's ShadowProtect software will have gone away with your free copy of the product to excitedly try out on all your Windows PCs and servers. Can you remember when bare-metal recovery was HARD? This month I will be demonstrating Mondo Rescue, a freely available software package for PCs running GNU/Linux and FreeBSD operating systems. Mondo Rescue can help you achieve many of the things you can do with ShadowProtect in Windows - system cloning, hardware independent restore, bare metal recovery, physical-to-virtual migration, OS provisioning, and the like. They work in completely separate ways, however, and the concepts of one do not necessarily apply to the other. Join me for this presentation and learn a lot of things that Mondo Rescue CAN do, as well as a frank and honest appraisal of what it CAN'T do. Yet... Andrew Shugg is a Senior Consultant at EP I.T. Solutions. Their servers (and more importantly, their customers' servers) are too frightened to _ever_ need bare-metal recovery. [7:30pm] Meeting close. Migration back to the pub for beer, soft drinks, sandwiches, QA, and General Discussion of current IT issues. .: DIRECTIONS :.
