This very minor, but there is a double comma near the end of the list of

:)



What I need from all of you is to come to the meeting and support
us!!! Especially folks that have been around a while, I think it would
be really helpful to have you. To be clear at Tuesday, 18 November
2014 20:00 UTC (1200 Pacific/UTC-8), join #ubuntu-meeting on Freenode
IRC. If you need any help with this, let me know. You can do this on
your phone or tablet, too, FYI. I suggest Atomic on Android.


I should be able to attend. I finally got around to reading the code of  
conduct and joining (pending approval) the team on launchpad.



Next step: website! Who wants to build it? I *loathe* HTML. It makes
me break out in hives.


I'd be glad to help with web programming, if I can get some input on  
content (text, images, etc.). However, I'm somewhat of a beginner, so if  
anyone more experienced offers to help, they may be more benefit to the  
team. :)

Fixed and I'm sure they don't, but it helps. Thanks for the eagle eye!

Cool. Approved. Now we just need to make you an Ubuntu Member :)

Well, I think we should make this a team effort. I think we should
start putting a blueprint together. We can brainstorm ideas and put up
design sketches. I know we have several web-savvy folks on the team
and a couple that are great with design. Once I figure out how to make
blueprints…

 Thanks. I guess I missed a step somewhere. I'm sure this would be like a
 frequently asked question, so if someone could point me in the right
 direction, I'll go read the instructions and see what I missed. :)

That's NOT a required component of membership to the LoCo, but it is
ultimately a goal of the community at large, and certainly a part of
what the LoCo should do. Basically membership is a recognition of
continued contribution to the project as a whole. Note that doesn't
mean code, either. More info here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership

Figured it out. We now have a project for the website and we have our
first blueprint, to brainstorm ideas:

Feel free to add whatever you like to the whiteboard.

BTW Patrick, feel free to join us on IRC at #ubuntu-us-or. We've
become a little less boring than in the past ;)

Thanks for responding so quickly and providing the link. Part of the site  
said it is rare for applications to be accepted from people contributing  
for less than 6 months so I think I should probably wait until I've done  
more than attend a couple meetings. :)

I added one idea. This is the first time I've used a virtual whiteboard,  
so feel free to tell me if a different approach would have been better.

I've been on a couple of the IRC meetings. Is the channel used at other  
times?
