I think you'll see a bit more activity once people know when and where it is, especially if popey tweets that he will be there and available for people to touch him, pre-chew his food etc.[1] Cheers, Andy -- http://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting [1] This bit is a joke. signature.asc Description: Digital signature -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Many people will hedge their bets, not committing until the last minute. Many wont add themselves to polls or wiki pages but will just turn up. If we rely only on that wiki page or doodle poll and do no further promotion then in all likelyhood nobody will turn up. However if we promote the event then more people will sign up and more will turn up on the day. > A location and date will be decided within 2 weeks. > (At the moment, it looks like the 8th of August is the best date for most, > although this may change if anyone else adds themselves) > The sooner a location and date is set the better.

[ubuntu-uk] Ubuntu UK GeekNic - 2010
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi All, I've had a few people ask me lately about the status of the Ubuntu UK GeekNic this summer, so I think it's about time that I explained it all, again. For reference, here is the Wiki page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/UKGeekNic2010 Basically, it has all ground to a halt because I have received little to no response outside of the Doodle Poll, (which has 7 people on it); Editing on the wiki for ideas fizzled out after the first few days also. I've also not been apparent on #ubuntu-uk for a number of reasons, pertaining not just to personal but also social. Anyway, if anyone has any ideas at all, or would suddenly like to attend, please scribble them on the wiki and add yourself to the doodle poll. A location and date will be decided within 2 weeks. (At the moment, it looks like the 8th of August is the best date for most, although this may change if anyone else adds themselves) Regards, Joe - --- Joe O'Dell GreenerClassrooms Project Co-Ordinator http://www.greenerclassrooms.org.uk Fedora Ambassador & Contributor (FreeMedia) http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ascenseur bedsLUG Co-Ordinator beds.lug.org.uk DFEY Member (SouthEast) dfey.org -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.14 (Darwin) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJMA+1TAAoJEAzPR+1Bu/TJc1oIAIzG1JJU5VWNZmKDRBn73ZqR evg/Cx648fnJMeEBv/DOp1Lq7jPAqK6tojC9YsBRvs/ZP+Tvsezpcz0RcqDN3bue YtW2rYfwkuuVS6DjgLFchp1XFr49QYaJbuMB/D+f+ONGdnpc2B5jdI2aknv+Ki9n zeSXtQMVLdrEtykYRf3FHqcVInnXUo9JJKZBxvlj5yFMkd+Gi8tt3sDcM47f0Kdh JIw2R+S4g3xBkVPtIKva2rzzUcSAEQ5dcvB7meWnZaW+SapbLyqBxXXPxWp3mLMJ HHtjOM092LUjiN7edx6JMg2vV8Os02CN3DYtSqx3pI0ijfue713GOAS3KLp4gzs= =eFR1 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
