b. Other goodies (mugs, bags, pens, ... )
It was suggested to look for other Ubuntu-goodies: warddr will lead the
project, with woutervddn helping.
A wiki page
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/PromotionMaterial/ProposalsGoodies2011
is open for designs and details.
c. Ubuntu promotion material for fairs/events :
- Flyers Ubuntu-be a6 (2011)
Please look at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/PromotionMaterial/ProposalsFlyers2011 and
add your proposals/comments in the mailing list and in the wiki page.
It is important that you express your meaning regarding stuff like this.
Deadline for the project: 01 June 2011.
- Rollups to improve our booths: which design? First proposals are in
the wiki page:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/PromotionMaterial/ProposalsRollup2011
Feel free to add proposals/designs/comments in the mailing list and
wiki: which design? international? (better for FOSDEM), national? (can
be use everywhere in Belgium), 1 language? (regional use or contact with
other LoCo teams?)
Suggested deadline for a good design: 01 April 2011.
If we find sponsors, a (small) place in the picture could be dedicaced
to sponsors.
A question about availability of rollups and other promotion material
from Canonical (free or cheap) is sent the LoCo-teams Council agenda for
the next meeting (15/03). But such a solution will take months (8 months
for Ubuntu-banner).
3. Update Wiki and Web-site
a. Wiki
- during the meeting last Tuesday (15/02), it was started with going
true the whole wiki first, making a BelgianTeam/Legacy page for all the
content from before 2010 (not yet with links), and an overview of what
was done is added at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/2011/FebruaryWikiCleanup. Further
information via the mailing list.
- A link “where to buy a laptop without MS Windows “ (to an outdated
page) has been added to the home page
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam (see Material). This page needs to
be updated (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/OsLessLaptopShops).
When updated, we might put that page inside ubuntu-be.org website.
b. Web-site
- A contact-form is included in the web-site, as a way to contact
ubuntu-be (not for technical support), see ”contact us” on the
website. Questions are forwarded to the contact-group or to the press
contacts, according the category.
It is suggested to add the IRC channel (or chat) in the "contact-form"
as a possibility to contact ubuntu-be members (in general) about various
questions, coordination and organization of events.
Remark: the contact-group (see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/Website/Commercial_links) will act
as coordination-team. A task description will be worked on and added in
the wiki, when agreed.
- Last week we pointed out that we need a page promoting our
actions/events in the web-site. The aim is to show what we do, hoping
that new volunteers will join. No proposals yet. It is suggested to
promote our work/hobby on Facebook, in the wiki and web-site.
4. Other questions
Nothing to report.
5. Next IRC meeting on Thursday 24/02/2011 at 21.00 hr.
