Ubuntu Ireland - IRC Meeting last week

[Rory McCann]

Hi all.

I've written up the minutes for the last IRC meeting we had. The wiki
page is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrishTeam/IRCMeetings/2009-04-05

The minutes are as follows:

A few items were discussed at the belated IRC meeting

    * Ubuntu Ireland press release team. Discussed some of the ideas
from the mailing list when it was first raised. czajkowski suggested
using the wiki to create a press release about oss events (ossbarcamp,
jaunty release party). Shane_Fagan expressed an interest in doing that
    * theirishpenguin is thinking of setting up a site listing companies
that use ubuntu or floss software
    *

      ebel mentioned the OddJob page, for little tasks that would
benefit the ubuntu-ie website / community, including adding spam
protection to the comments on ubuntu-ie.org. ebel has promised to buy a
pint to the person who sets it up. Shane_Fagan had a look.
    * czajkowski reminded people about the Ubuntu Code of Conduct, in
order to be sure the IRC channel remains a friendly and welcoming place
    *

      Mean-Machine brought up the release party for the next version of
ubuntu. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrishTeam/IRCMeetings/2009-04-05#preview
more info. There are some tshirts available for prizes. An ubuntu
releated pub quiz was suggested.
    *

      czajkowski mentioned that some of the people running freenode are
holding a geek picknic ("geeknic") in dublin in the summer.

    * ebel metioned the Irish translation of ubuntu, and floated the
idea of a translation jam, to do a practice session on ubuntu translation
    *

      Mean-Machine suggested some wiki spring cleaning and pointed
people to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrishTeam/Toolbox/Wiki/Menu
    * Another OSSBarCamp was suggested, and some tentative thoughts on
software freedom day 2009
