Hi again! We had a very productive IRC meeting for Ubuntu-ca on Thursday. I'd like to thank all the people who participated from the LoCo Council, the LoCo Team leaders, and the Ubuntu-ca members.
We discussed several ideas on how to improve participation in Ubuntu-ca events. The two we're doing first: 1) Aruna is organizing an Ubuntu Hour in Toronto. Details on location, date and time will be announced on the Ubuntu-ca mailing list. 2) The next Ubuntu-ca meeting on Thursday, 23 January 2014 will be a Video Chat! We'll have a discussion on the Ubuntu-ca mailing list about the software to use (Google+ Hangouts? XMPP video? BigBlueButton?). We should have some Ubuntu Hours before then in the chapter cities (Toronto, Mississauga, Guelph, Kitchener-Waterloo, and others) to help people get their software set up. http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/ubuntu-ca/2652/detail/ We'll reach out to the University computer clubs, and there was talk of setting up a joint Ubuntu-ca and IEEE Student Branch meeting. We'll also get a Conference Pack for participation in the Waterloo Mini Maker Faire next year. For those people who weren't able to attend the meeting I've included the meeting summary below, with a link to the meeting logs. If you've got questions you can e-mail me, or ask on the Ubuntu-ca mailing list, or join us in the #ubuntu-ca channel on irc.freenode.net Thanx again, everyone! --Bob.
