Yeah, not a big fan of the Meetup spam.  Your post on the LoCo looks great!
Nicely done.

Thanks for supporting Ubuntu.

Yeah, Meetup is cool but if it's going to get very expensive them we'll
have to give it a miss. Who knows, we might have our own version on Ubuntu

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

2015-10-26 Thread Phil N
Che,

Great to hear your Ubuntu meeting went well, and glad to see your having a
LoCo Ubuntu hour in your area.

Speaking from past experience (VP of Salem Macintosh Users Group, and
co-founder of Microportal - the electronics club) we've had our biggest
turnouts during November meetings, I don't know why this is.  One would
think holidays and colder weather would be hampering turnouts, however over
the past 3 years November has consistently been our biggest turnout.  It's
almost brain stumping...LOL.
Being your a new club - it may take a few Novembers - though, so be
patient... If you build it, they will come. LOL.

Two other clubs in Salem, which I'm a member of, both use meetup.  The
problem with meetup is they are $expensive$.  Meetup is free as long as you
keep your meetup members under 50, the caveat is when you go over your
allotted 50 members, they want lots mo' money And from what I hear, the
price can climb almost as high as a web-host would cost.  Speaking of
web-host, I really like what you've done at the LoCo events page (below
link), plus Ubuntu is not going to spam us, or sale member's data. It's
free, it's safe, its home...

http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-us-or/3231-ubuntu-1510-corvallis-release-party/

Also It only took one club here in Salem, 2 months on meetup before they
exceeded 50 members, because anyone world-wide can and does join your
meetup.  So "caveat emptor", when it comes to meetup.

Just letting you know my experience w/ meetup, and putting in my two cents
worth...

Great job getting a LoCo going in Corvallis, wishing you all the very best.


Ciao for now
Phil. N

So we had our first Corvallis meet up, it was quiet as expected being our
first one and a last minute thing but it was a lot of fun. Even though most
people didn't come up to us I suspect they were googling "Ubuntu" when they
got home, they couldn't have missed our display. :-) From here on out we'll
have a regular once a month meet up here in Corvallis, November will be
tough because of NaNoWriMo (S0rceress0 has 50,000 words to write) but I
suspect we'll double box and slip in an Ubuntu hour as at the same time
we're out writing. I think I'll also follow in Jono's footsteps and use
"Meetup" instead of Groupspaces, seems like more people use it. Anyway,
thanks for all the encouragement, have a great week.

 Thanks for the advice guys. :-) We plan on a once a month get together
 at the Old World Deli. They have decent wifi and they never get over
 crowded, normally pretty quiet. The initial meetup for this months launch
 will be in the afternoon but we'll probably switch it to between 5pm and
 7.30pm on a weekday after that. I'm also thinking the beginning of the
 month might be better because people tend to have money then. Old World
 Deli is within walking distance of our house so we won't have to worry
 about cycling in the dark (not a pleasant experience around here even with
 great bike lanes).

Thanks Phil N, glad to help out. The "Ubuntu Blitz Campaign..." is a great

 Che,

 I concur with what Cody said; Here in Salem we have been staying at
 around 3 people pre meeting, with a few visitors who temporary attend to
 get a problem or two solved.  Stay vigilant, because people will eventually
 show up.  Some things we found that work here in Salem are:

 * Small flyer (poster) half page, the larger ones seem to get taken
 down more often to make room.
 * Meet at least once pre month at the same place and time.
 * Meet on a weekday, (Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings work
 best, because many people leave town on a Friday for the weekend, and most
 holidays fall on a Monday, so those days near the weekend may not be as
 good a turnout.)  However you may find in your area, that people may be
 willing leave their own town to travel to yours on the weekend ;-)

 Just a few ideas though - great work on LoCo evens page.

 Ciao for now
 Phil. N

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

2015-10-19 Thread Phil N
Wow - Che's Ubuntu event is listed on Corvallis's events calendar page, and
everything... WTG Che, and nicely written too.  Unfortunately some VIPs are
flying in from San Jose, so I'll have to miss this Thursday's event, as
I'll be out all day.

Wishing you all the best, on creating a new LoCo Ubuntu community in
Corvallis.  Again great! job Che.

Cody Jim >
I think Che has come up with a great! idea. Perhaps we should get something
posted in Salem's Statesman Journal, regarding the release of Ubuntu 15.10
for next months meeting on the 6th or 20th of November.

Plus I think, we should all post something in our respective local
newspapers, during every Ubuntu release (biannually), to help grow the LoCo
Ubuntu communities...  Sort of a Biannual Ubuntu Blitz Campaign... ;-)
Just thinking out-loud here, and throwing some ideas (Che helped spark) out
there to the community.

ciao for now
Phil. N

2015-10-11 Thread Phillip N
Che,

I concur with what Cody said; Here in Salem we have been staying at around
3 people pre meeting, with a few visitors who temporary attend to get a
problem or two solved.  Stay vigilant, because people will eventually show
up.  Some things we found that work here in Salem are:

* Small flyer (poster) half page, the larger ones seem to get taken down
more often to make room.
* Meet at least once pre month at the same place and time.
* Meet on a weekday, (Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings work best,
because many people leave town on a Friday for the weekend, and most
holidays fall on a Monday, so those days near the weekend may not be as
good a turnout.)  However you may find in your area, that people may be
willing leave their own town to travel to yours on the weekend ;-)

Just a few ideas though - great work on LoCo evens page.

Ciao for now
Phil. N

Thanks for the advice guys. :-) We plan on a once a month get together at
the Old World Deli. They have decent wifi and they never get over crowded,
normally pretty quiet. The initial meetup for this months launch will be in
the afternoon but we'll probably switch it to between 5pm and 7.30pm on a
weekday after that. I'm also thinking the beginning of the month might be
better because people tend to have money then. Old World Deli is within
walking distance of our house so we won't have to worry about cycling in
the dark (not a pleasant experience around here even with great bike
lanes).

a bit of travel but weekdays are hard.

 Hi all,

 Hope you're all enjoying the very pleasant autumn/fall we're
 having. I'm putting together a meet up page on groupspaces.com for
 the Corvallis/Benton county area. S0rceress0 and myself are planning 
 the
 first get together at the Old World Deli here in Corvallis for the 
 release
 of Ubuntu 15.10. It's a good venue with plenty of space, seating, wifi 
 and
 great food at a low price. I originally looked at using meetup but I'm 
 not
 paying $9.99 a month until we have a few people coming to regular meet 
 ups.

More than likely it will end up as it normally does, just me and Linda but
who knows. We'll have fun either way. :-)

Re: [Ubuntu Oregon] Ubuntu meeting.

2015-10-09 Thread Che Dean
It will be fun. We'll bring the System76 Darter running Ubuntu 14.04.03
LTS, it's a couple of years old but it's still high end, i7, 16GB RAM,
500GB SSD, touch screen and also an ASUS 1011PX 2 GB RAM Netbook to show
off how well Ubuntu Mate runs on older hardware. I'll install Darktable and
RawTherapee to show the photography potential on the System76 (it's big
around here) as well as other favourites, any other software you can think
of feel free to let us know, we want to show off the best FOSS has to
offer. :-)

everything is in place thx to claudio  (woutervddn, 19:21:06)
  *Release Party for Quantal  (woutervddn, 19:22:27)
warddr states that we can hold the RP or install party in Hackerspace
Antwerp, about 30 people can enter at the same time  (woutervddn,
19:24:28)
''ACTION:'' we need to pick a date and do some promotion  (woutervddn, 19:24:43)
let's call it an install party  (woutervddn, 19:25:15)
space can be used any day but sunday  (woutervddn, 19:25:40)
DeWereldMorgen proposed it and will be involved  (woutervddn, 19:26:48)
warddr points out that there are some people at the hackerspace that
are prepared to help install  (woutervddn, 19:27:56)

 *Running Projects
In general: To all project leaders, make sure to keep your project
going!  (woutervddn, 19:28:51)
I'll make a page on the website with the current state of all the
projects and a link to a dedicated wiki page  (woutervddn, 19:29:10)
''ACTION:'' woutervddn HAS TO make those pages!!  (woutervddn, 19:29:25)
  *New Computers  (woutervddn, 19:29:42)
the new computers for Ubuntu-be are coming (finally)  (woutervddn, 19:29:56)
they where delayed because of some problems with applications that
wouldn't run on their new notebooks  (woutervddn, 19:30:21)
  *Manual  (woutervddn, 19:36:47)
woutervddn still needs to upload the manual.  (woutervddn, 19:37:02)
warddr points out that versioncontrol in ODT files is cumbersome
(woutervddn, 19:39:43)
he states that translating to latex / html / docbook is critical for a
good version control  (woutervddn, 19:40:09)
''ACTION:'' woutervddn will look in to the options before uploading
the manual  (woutervddn, 19:40:38)
warddr wants to help converting if we use latex since he's studying it
anyhow..  (woutervddn, 19:40:56)
the manual is available on:
http://vdnkr.be/Ubuntu_Handleiding_V1_0.pdf  (woutervddn, 19:41:56)
  *Tshirts  (woutervddn, 19:43:47)

''ACTION:'' get the shirts  count them  report to ML  (woutervddn, 19:44:22)
''IDEA:'' order new shirts with a new design  (woutervddn, 19:45:30)
most of the people present think it's a good idea to have shirts with
a new design  (woutervddn, 19:47:02)
If we sell the same t-shirt on fosdem once again there will not be
much profit  (warddr, 19:47:33)
woutervddn likes to point out that not only will they secure the fact
that we'll make the money back, but that they'll also be a nice
addition to his collection of geek shirts!  (woutervddn, 19:47:38)
''IDEA:'' jurgen thinks we need to have a webshop or something
similar, it would be more easy  (woutervddn, 19:48:09)
woutervddn agrees and is prepared to help and set it up!  (woutervddn, 19:48:29)
woutervddn points out that a webshop is only possible if we are a VZW
(hint hint)  (woutervddn, 19:50:23)
  *Print/art work  (woutervddn, 19:52:36)
jurgen was dreaming about a corporate brochure that states why a
business should use ubuntu  (woutervddn, 19:59:30)
woutervddn diggs that idea. he thinks that is really a great addition
(woutervddn, 19:59:51)
something similar for schools would be great as well, but not only
about educational software but also about network maintainability
(woutervddn, 20:00:25)
''ACTION:'' call for volunteers for this project  (woutervddn, 20:01:01)
  *USB Sticks  (woutervddn, 19:52:36)
kawabill put this on email: Update USB cards; hardware has arrived @
Claudio, we are thinking to install Ubuntu-be possibly together with
Kubuntu and Xubuntu using multi-boot.  (woutervddn, 20:03:34)

I'm not really a fan of putting all those distro's on by default..
(woutervddn, 20:04:02)
^woutervddn  (woutervddn, 20:04:10)
wouter thinks by default only 1 distro should be on it because that's
already hard enough for new users  (woutervddn, 20:05:45)
they could be added if the user wants it, but it's a waste of space
otherwise, maybe they can just install extra window managers on the
same installation  (woutervddn, 20:06:42)
warddr points out that it will introduce a lot of redundant
appications

Re: [Ubuntu-be] Ubuntu meeting

2011-10-13 Thread Jurgen Gaeremyn

Is there need for a meeting?

The plan is on this page:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/IrcMeetings/Reports?action=AttachFiledo=viewtarget=ubuntu-be-irc-meeting-2011-09-22-report.txt


 Dates: (we should add those to our website calendar)
 Oct: 6 and 20
 Nov: 3 and 17
 Dec: 1 and 15
 Jan: 5 and 19
 Feb: 2 and 16
 Mar: 1 and 15
 Apr: 5 and 19
 May: 3 and 17
 Jun: 7 and 21
 Jul: 5 and 19
 Aug: 2 and 16
 Sep: 6 and 20


So basically there's no planned meeting... unless there is need for a 
(practical) meeting.


Hehe... yet again, we managed to talk about something that need to be 
done ... but didn't assign someone to it. And as is normal in these 
kinds of cases - it didn't happen. :)

I'm putting them in as we're speaking :)

Grtz,
Jurgen.

Op 12-mei-2010, om 06:36 heeft Fabian het volgende geschreven:

 Slechts 4 dagen zijn we verwijderd van de Ubuntu meeting 2010!
 Aanstaande zondag, 16 mei 2010 om 10:00u, opent de 5de Ubuntu meeting
 zijn deuren om er weer een leerrijke en vooral super toffe en aangename
 dag van te maken!
 De organisatie legt de laatste contacten, stelt een definitieve
 dagplanning samen en zet alle puntjes op de i!
 
 Wist je dat je door je inschrijving op de website rechtstreeks kans
 maakt op enkele leuke prijzen?!
 Onderaan deze E-mail vind je een deelname strookje om uit te knippen en
 op de Ubuntu meeting in de daarvoor voorziene collectordoos te
 deponeren.
 
 De laatste week hebben we iedere dag een spreker en/of standhouder
 bekendgemaakt op de website, Facebook en Twitter.
 Alle sprekers die tot op heden bekend gemaakt werden, zijn:
 - Spamfiler
 - Puppet centraal beheer
 - Virtualisatie voor beginners
 - Ubuntu en games
 - Fonera
 - Zarafa

[Ubuntu-be] Ubuntu-meeting op 16 mei 2010 @ Cultuurcentrum Genk

2010-04-07 Thread Claudio Mammarella
Beste Ubuntero's,

10.04LTS in het CultuurCentrum van Genk tussen 10.00H en 18.00H.

Meer info op volgende sites :

http://www.ubuntu-meeting.be/
http://bitmappers.be/bmcms/
http://ubuntu-be.org/nl/calendar/2010-05

Van de voorzitter van de organiserende club hebben we de volgende mail
gekregen :

“Wij kunnen op de release volgende hulp gebruiken:

- Sponsors, wij zijn nog steeds op zoek naar enkele sponsors
- Sprekers, op dit moment hebben wij een 10-tal sprekers, er is ruimte
voor nog een 10 sprekers dus als je mensen kent die een leuke bijdrage
kunnen leveren, ze zijn welkom
- Installatiehulp, wij kunnen nog hulp gebruiken van de ubunteros bij
het installeren, zodat er altijd genoeg volk is.
- Reclame, de misschien belangrijkste hulp kunnen jullie bieden bij het
maken van reclame.

Groetjes
Fabian”

Als je interesse hebt om mee te doen, reclame te maken, sponsors te
zoeken,gelieve Fabian te kontakteren.

probeer wel even langs te komen om dit evenement te bekijken.

Meer info vanuit hun site :

Tijdens deze Ubuntu-meeting zullen naar goede gewoonte sprekers
verschillende presentaties geven. Waarover deze presentaties gaan, zal
in de loop van volgende maanden bekend gemaakt worden. Uiteraard is er
ook de nodige ruimte voorzien om installatie  configuratie hulp te
bieden aan wie dat nodig heeft.

Re: [Ubuntu-be] Ubuntu meeting 2010: 10.04 Lucid Lynx

2010-02-24 Thread Massimiliano Lentini
Ge weet, op mij kunt ge rekenen.
Je vraagt maar wat ik kan doen.
De netbook die ik heb aangeschaft werkt echt goed moet ik zeggen. Ik heb 
ook met ssh zitten experimenteren en moet zeggen dat je er echt veel mee 
kunt, zoals een programma openen op uw scherm die op de andere pc 
eigenlijk aan draaien is enz...

Groetjes,
Massimiliano.

2010-02-23 Thread Jan Claeys
Tijdens de H  C-dagen in Antwerpen vertelden de BitMappers me dat ze
nog steeds extra sprekers nodig hebben voor hun release party.  Indien
je geïnteresseerd bent kan je Fabian contacteren...

During the H  C days in Antwerp the BitMappers also said they are
looking for some more people to give a talk.  So if you would like to
give one there please contact Fabian...
