Thanks for your past contributions. Thank you! Apparently I'm listed here as well: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GermanTeam Can you remove me there as well, or do I need to contact someone from the German team for that?

[Ubuntu-ch] Removing me from regional contacts
Hi, I'm listed (Florian Bruhin) on the page of regional Ubuntu contacts: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SwissTeam/RegionalContacts Since I don't use Ubuntu anymore since >5 years, unfortunately I'm not really capable of (or interested in) giving support for it :) Unfortunately that page is listed as "Immutable Page" - so how can I get removed from there?

Re: [Ubuntu-ch] regional contact cleanup
Heya there, my opinion on the whole subject: The wikipage is merely a list of people who want to give support for Ubuntu - these are *not* necessarely the same people who want to do any kind of community work. If I think I'm able to give support for Ubuntu, why should I have to join a mailinglist which is about topics which most likely neither influence me, nor are interesting for me? Even more so for people which aren't able to speak English very well. So, in my opinion: Sending a people a (personal!) email to see if they're still active, and if needed delete them (maybe after a second reminder, some people tend to overlook some mails) is okay. *Forcing* people to join a Mailinglist in order to continue to be able to share the spirit of Ubuntu by giving support is clearly not. Not everyone is comfortable with mailinglists. Not everyone is comfortable with English. Not everyone is interested in the topics either. This significantly puts the barrier for some people willing to give support up, which is not a good thing at all. Informing there there is a such thing like a mailing list is enough. Why force them to join? i think this isn't a good action - loosing contacts to people who can't read this List frquently is quickly done - regaining those people is hard work. Besides that, we lose nothing. This is a wiki and all revisions are stored. So if we need to look back, we can just open an older revision. I think Tscheesy was mainly talking about the psychological loss here, not about the technical side. The important point is these are people *locally* to someone who needs support. If I need support, I don't care about the 80 people of the 90 who aren't in my area. A cleanup might be needed because there are indeed people who maybe quit using ubuntu or have another adress and just forgot about removing themselves from the list. But if we need to do a cleanup, we need to do it as soft as possible (i.e. long deadlines, more than one reminder. To err is human, and I regularely flag some mails as important and look at them some weeks later). We should value the people giving something back to the community, not restrict them. Just my $0.02, Florian (who is, by the way, perfectly fine with being on this mailing list :P) -- Ubuntu-ch mailing list Ubuntu-ch@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-ch

Re: [Ubuntu-ch] Ubuntu booth at FrOSCamp
Hey Dirk, hi ML, thank you for the invitation, didn't know about this event, and it sounds very interesting! If nothing comes in between, I'd be happy to help out, although I will only be there on Saturday, and maybe on Friday evening. Maybe I'll do a speech about Geocaching or so, if it fits in. Let's see ;) Florian / The Compiler -- Ubuntu-ch mailing list Ubuntu-ch@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-ch
