* Old business * Xubuntu marketing plans - carried forward * shimmer project to move items pertaining to Xubuntu to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu - Done * We need to start either a ML item or webpage item for marketing - Done * knome is working hard on this very topic, and his efforts are very much appreciated * We now have a wiki page going, even if the wiki is hard to work with at this time. It is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Marketing * ochosi and mr_pouit will change panel launchers to generic icons - Done * ochosi and knome will put together some logo designs to be discussed as the menu icon - carried forward * ask knome to do some drafts with a grey background and a black background - carried forward * knome is to set up a tele-conference of some type to discuss marketing - carried forward * we need someone to update the slideshows displayed during the installation, they are badly outdated (they were made for karmic or lucid) - carried forward == Team updates == === Packaging & Development === * More syncs from debian experimental * Fixed xfce4-indicator-plugin to work with nm-applet and transmission (might be worth adding it by default to the panel, feedback welcome). * Fixed xfce4-notes-plugin to allow smooth upgrades (it won't be removed from the panel when upgrading to 4.8). * Patched update-manager to be able to restart without gnome-session (https://launchpad.net/bugs/530161). * micahg packaged and uploaded gmusicbrowser 1.1.6. (had some help from quadrispro with gmusicbrowser) * [ACTION] add xfce4-indicator-plugin to panel * remove cpugraph === Bug Triage & Testing === * we are testing starting tuesday for alpha3. * We need some testers and a new testing lead, if anyone is interested * We need to have some more people looking at Natty, so we can get the feedback to mr_pouit and ochosi in time for any changes needed. * We discussed bug reporting for Natty Narwhal. The number of bugs being reported seems to be quite low, compared to previous releases. === Website & Marketing === * Suggestion from ochosi - it would be great if the first page would show the slideshow that is shown during installation. * canonical will be setting up a wordpress test install for us! * Added knome and pleia2 to the ~xubuntu-website team so we're all set to put a theme in there once we're ready (canonical will pull from bzr) * Give ochosi his own account on the drupal install so he can post news articles === Artwork === * alpha3 will have all the artwork and theme changes == Discussion - Remote Desktop Viewer (Vinegrae) == * It was decided that this could be dropped if space is needed on the CD. It is a nice addition to the menu for the users that do need it. == Discussion - PowerPC and Armel builds for Xubuntu == * If no objections are received, PowerPC builds will be discontinued as of Natty Narwhal Alpha3. * Xubuntu has no PPC developers or testers, and requests have resulted in no responses. * micahg got the ok to ISO test arm == Any Other Business == * We don't have the desktop switcher in natty * put workspace switcher back in the current configuration for natty * Next meeting is in one week, March 3, #ubuntu-meeting, at 19:00 UTC. *Meeting logs and minutes are available at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Meetings/Archive/Minutes/2011-02-24 * proposal we take up the strategy document starting in three weeks, a bit at a time, the meeting of March 10. == Action items for the 2011-02-24 meeting == * add xfce4-indicator-plugin to panel * put workspace switcher back in the current configuration for natty == Carried Forward == Please see the meeting logs for https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/Xubuntu_2010-01-10 === Xubuntu Governance === * The governancy part of the current Strategy Document can be found at [[Xubuntu/StrategyDocument#Xubuntu Governance & Team Structure]] * The Xubuntu project will advance towards a Council-based governance approach. === The Xubuntu Council === * The Council size should be 5 members, with one of them being the PL. * PL will have a vote in every voting in the Council, not just as a tie-breaker. * The 4 members in the Council in addition to the PL should be selected by the existing Xubuntu Contributors. * The appropriate Team Lead can be the tiebreaker in a vote, but only if PL is absent. * The council should *aim* to have balanced membership across the different aspects/teams of Xubuntu. * The council should be named/selected after every LTS release. Thus, every season lasts for 2 years. -- Charlie Kravetz Xubuntu Project Lead Linux Registered User Number 425914 [http://counter.li.org/] Never let anyone steal your DREAM.
