Jan 28 15:05:44 <BobJensen> What do you guys think about that
Jan 28 15:05:47 <Sonar_Guy> that may or may not be feasible for me with the testing at work.

Jan 28 15:06:06 * Corwyn votes for Tuesday
Jan 28 15:06:14 <BobJensen> Should we just skip a week?
Jan 28 15:06:15 <Sonar_Guy> Also depends on Andreas work schedule

Jan 28 15:10:36 <BobJensen> Sonar_Guy: Can you email me the "back up scripts" so we can see about getting them implemented
Jan 28 15:11:05 <Sonar_Guy> I will put them on unity in my personal folder, No sense e-mailing.
Jan 28 15:11:06 <BobJensen> Sonar_Guy: Any of the testing automation stuff would be great also
Jan 28 15:11:16 <Sonar_Guy> it is all on unity in my personal folder
Jan 28 15:11:30 <BobJensen> Sonar_Guy: I was thinking if you emailed them to me I would have them with me on the plane
Jan 28 15:11:41 <BobJensen> I can down load them from there
Jan 28 15:11:43 <BobJensen> that works
Jan 28 15:12:09 * bori (n=cbormann@p5485CCEF.dip.t-dialin.net) has joined #fedora-unity
Jan 28 15:12:58 <BobJensen> OK one of my goals for FUDCon is to try and increase our contributors, see if we can't get some new blood
Jan 28 15:13:32 <BobJensen> also see if we can't burn up some of these lingering tasks
Jan 28 15:14:00 <BobJensen> Items 1, 2, 4 and 5
Jan 28 15:15:48 <BobJensen> Where do we go from here?
Jan 28 15:16:10 <BobJensen> any ideas what we can do next?
Jan 28 15:16:31 <Corwyn> well, alot of it depends on what the community wants/needs
Jan 28 15:16:42 <Corwyn> we need to get more people writing articles for us
Jan 28 15:17:37 <BobJensen> Do we keep unity whole or do we split it in to two groups, "content" and "Development"
Jan 28 15:17:43 <Corwyn> start finding topics for that
Jan 28 15:17:49 <Sonar_Guy> Whole.
Jan 28 15:17:53 <Corwyn> whole
Jan 28 15:17:57 <Sonar_Gal> together
Jan 28 15:18:03 <BobJensen> I thinkI agree with whole
Jan 28 15:18:26 <BobJensen> It was just something that came up in a conversation a wek or two ago
Jan 28 15:18:40 <Corwyn> we need to get the workflow in place, that'll make things flow better from submission to publish
Jan 28 15:18:56 <BobJensen> Corwyn: I agree
Jan 28 15:19:11 <BobJensen> Corwyn: I relly want to work with Jon on that while we are gone
Jan 28 15:19:24 <Corwyn> I'd like to steal some of Jon's time away from you to deal with that
Jan 28 15:19:46 <Corwyn> this week if possible to get the final layout done for it
Jan 28 15:20:03 <BobJensen> If we can come up with a solid plan we can get it implemented while we are gone IMO
Jan 28 15:20:36 <BobJensen> Maybe just have dome brass to polish aster we return
Jan 28 15:20:44 <Corwyn> I have a plan, it's just getting it documented as Jon requested, my knowledge of plone is limited and I need his assistance with it
Jan 28 15:21:30 <BobJensen> Sounds good
Jan 28 15:22:10 <BobJensen> I am going to try and be in here as much as I can from FUDCon
Jan 28 15:25:10 * Corwyn drops a pin
Jan 28 15:25:56 * Sonar_Gal hears it hit the floor
Jan 28 15:27:13 <BobJensen> Any other ideas for FUDCon or our future?
Jan 28 15:27:43 <Corwyn> none from me
Jan 28 15:27:56 <Sonar_Guy> None for fudcon, only one for the future. Lets get the task list completed!! hehe
Jan 28 15:28:29 <BobJensen> Yeah having an empty task list is not a bad thing IMO
Jan 28 15:28:42 <Sonar_Guy> Then we can fill it up again
Jan 28 15:28:48 <Corwyn> yeah
Jan 28 15:29:04 <BobJensen> OK Goal for Next year
Jan 28 15:29:14 <BobJensen> We all Go to FUDCon
Jan 28 15:29:21 <Corwyn> there we go
Jan 28 15:29:31 <Sonar_Gal> Need at least 2-3 months notice on that.
Jan 28 15:29:37 <Sonar_Guy> Goal forthis year, We all go to FFF
Jan 28 15:29:38 <BobJensen> Rise the money over the year so we can afford it
Jan 28 15:29:39 <Corwyn> another thing we need to get on the board is scheduling and location for this year's FFF
Jan 28 15:30:16 * Southern_Gentlem (n=notfred@unaffiliated/Southern-Gentlem) has joined #fedora-unity
Jan 28 15:30:18 <BobJensen> the NPO will be a big part of getting us all there
Jan 28 15:30:21 <Corwyn> if we can get the non-profit going, we might be able to have the org pay for it for us all to go
Jan 28 15:30:45 <Southern_Gentlem> sorry im late
