December 16, 2007 meeting</h4>
<p>johnc4510 called the meeting to order at 9:01 PM </p>
<p>There were no new members. </p>
<p>johnc4510 made the following announcements: We have a new team
channel if you hadn't noticed. It's #ubuntu-us-az. If you have
auto-joined enabled on your chat client, it will bring you here
automatically since there is a redirect on the old channel. This change
is due to compliance with the Community Council to make channel names
consistent. I have gone through and changed all the links I could find
on our server, wiki pages, and forum threads. If you come across one
that I have missed, go ahead and change it, or let myself or tyche know
so we can. </p>
<p>Next, with the Holiday Season getting into full swing now, we will
still have meetings. They may be a little bit more informal, but we
feel it a good idea to show consistence by continuing at our regular
schedule. </p>
<p>I hope you all enjoy the peace of the season, and the blessing of
family during this time. Happy Holidays!! </p>
<p>Our first order of business was the Education Team project. [Ed.
note: This section quoted from the log of the meeting.] We continue to
add applications to the Education Team page, although at a slow pace. <a

sent in items to add to the Graphics list under the Optional category.
Here is the link: <a

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArizonaTeam/Teams/Education/Graphics</a>
you might want to take a look at it at your leisure to see what
optional apps you can add to the graphics menu to round out this
section of your install. We still need members to help us add items to
the following pages: System Tools, Sound & Video, Programming, and
Other. If you can find time to give us a few minutes it would be
appreciated. You can look at any of the other pages to see what we're
doing and then just email myself at <a
href="mailto:johnc4510-cox@ubuntu.com"> johnc4510-cox@ubuntu.com</a>
or tyche at <a href="mailto:tyche@cox.net"> tyche@cox.net</a>. </p>
<p>The next order of business was the Team server. enigmastrat reported
that the basic design of the page appears to be set. He had a question
about PHP, but in discussion with slofgrin and johnc4510 it was
determined that for only a few pages it would not be necessary. Should
the site grow larger other methods, such as PHP or css would be
discussed. A second page was suggested, outlining the Team purpose.
This would have something like why we're doing what we're doing, and
how we're doing it. It was thought that a third page would be to use it
to emphasize the lugs of the state. This page could include links to
the lugs and logos for them. johnc4510 will try to contact the various
lugs over the holidays about being included on our page, and offering
our support of their organizations. enigmastrat was asked how long it
would take to make 2 more pages, if the format remained the same and
only the text changed. He proceeded to duplicate the main page as two
new pages, during the meeting, available for changing the text at our
convenience (<a href="http://ubuntuaz.selfip.com/page2.html">
http://ubuntuaz.selfip.com/page2.html</a> <a
href="http://ubuntuaz.selfip.com/page3.html">
http://ubuntuaz.selfip.com/page3.html</a>). It was also decided that
Wolf_45 should be added to the Web Team, to help with HTML content. </p>
<p>The meeting was adjourned at 9:37 PM </p>
