=== Summary of the November 29, 2009 meeting ===

scott_ev called the meeting to order at 9:00 PM

Agenda: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArizonaTeam/Meetings/09November29

scott_ev then gave an announcement:

 * Welcome everyone.  Thank you for attending tonight's meeting.  I 
haven't been around all that much on sunday nights.  I do know that our 
leader johnc4510 has been very very busy in other areas of his life and 
has had to step back from us a little.  This LoCo is important to me and 
I hope it is to you also and I feel that we can keep things rolling in 
john's absence.  I doubt this is a permanent thing, but, for now we just 
need to divide up.

scott_ev then mentioned that he would be trying to get ahold of 
johnc4510 in the next week.  He added, "I think the most important thing 
for us to do as a LoCo is get back in the habit of having meetings.  
It's in the meetings that everything gets organized.  We plan all the 
fun things in the meetings."  scott_eve also asked if there were any 
documents about team leadership. [Ed. note:  Found after the meeting 
were the following links - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamHowto , 
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu-community/+spec/community-ubuntu-loco-leaderhsip 
, and http://www.ubuntu.com/community/leadership-conduct ]

scott_ev then discussed the possibility of an Ubuntu 10.04 release 
party.  "I think it would be a good idea to get a jump on organizing a 
release party for 10.04 whatever it's gonna be called Lucid Lynx or 
something like that.  Maybe we could do it right after the installfest 
at UAT in April.  I know we may not have the CDs by then, but installing 
it isn't the main point of a release party.  We could go over to 
Boulders on Broadway from the installfest."  Ubuntu 10.04 is an Long 
Term Support release, and an effort to have CDs available for the 
release party is important.  Also, scott_ev will be getting in touch 
with Lenards about the possibility of another install fest in Tucson

scott_ev then asked for PLUG announcements from xHans.
