Hello |
11:01 |
walterbender |
I'm back |
11:01 |
SeanDaly |
Mel that's extremely helpful many thanks |
11:02 |
|
OK first I want to say that I am tremendously excited about the launch I hope you are too! |
11:02 |
|
Now here's a sticky point: we need to decide quickly how to set up a phone number |
11:02 |
sdziallas |
waves |
11:03 |
SeanDaly |
greetings sdziallas |
11:03 |
mchua |
what's blocking that decision, Sean? |
11:03 |
SeanDaly |
I have looked (briefly) at 1-800 We Answer, VoiceStick, United World Telecom CallMyGlobalNumber, VoicePulse, and ViaTalk |
11:03 |
walterbender |
is bernie here? he has some insight into the problem |
11:03 |
SeanDaly |
walterbender: haven't seen him but he said last week an asterisk solution wasn't ready |
11:04 |
|
mchua: budget, rreally. How to get what we need for cheap |
11:04 |
walterbender |
Have we considered just using SKYPE? |
11:04 |
mchua |
I think we've spent a long time checking out alternatives for this - at some point we just need to pick one, because the cost of us being wrong in our first choice is starting to be less than the cost of the effort we've put into determining the right choice so far. |
11:04 |
|
It's not like we can't switch in a few months if it's really awful. |
11:04 |
sdziallas |
might it be worth contacting Google, whether they'd make an exception for an open source project like we're? |
11:05 |
mchua |
And a few months for any of those services is probably affordable. |
11:05 |
SeanDaly |
walterbender: I know little about Skype maybe the answer is there all along |
11:05 |
jt4sugar |
How much is available to spend first 2 months? Just need to get up and running |
11:05 |
mchua |
jt4sugar: +1 |
11:05 |
caroline |
I agree with Mel, pick your favorite that you've seen and we can decide to change later. |
11:05 |
SeanDaly |
mchua: as long as we have a number by Friday we're fine |
11:05 |
|
The reason I want to make an informed choice is, the press release will go out and a number like that takes on a life of its own |
11:05 |
|
6 months later a journalist could dial it |
11:06 |
|
then when you change it you have to say "don't use number X anymore" |
11:06 |
|
jt4sugar: in fact there are good choices at 5 to 15 bucks a month which I can certainly afford |
11:06 |
tomeu |
so maybe we need to get a number we can change later to another service? |
11:07 |
SeanDaly |
sdziallas: GrandCentral not call forwarding to Europe yet |
11:07 |
jt4sugar |
What allows for scalability is key |
11:07 |
tomeu |
or we can keep using along the new one without having to pay too much? |
11:07 |
SeanDaly |
jt4sugar: +1 |
11:07 |
mchua |
A zillion people trying to reach us at an old number is a *wonderful* problem to have - can we deal with it then? (I realize I'm speaking from an engineer's experience and values, though, so override me with Marketing-fu if needed. ;) |
11:07 |
sdziallas |
SeanDaly: ah, I see that point... mh! though it would just be a question of getting into that service, but well... |
11:07 |
SeanDaly |
tomeu: I don't count on good cooperation between telcos and VoIP providers for keeping number |
11:08 |
|
Reminder of what we want: USA phone number, forwardable to Europe and USA, preferably by web access not touchtone coding |
11:09 |
jt4sugar |
I'll pitch in $50 for first 2 months just as long as we get scalable option |
11:09 |
SeanDaly |
With voicemail providing e-mail alert to pr sugarlabs.org and preferably direct audio listening in e-mail |
11:09 |
|
Scalable, and with cheap rates to Europe |
11:10 |
tomeu |
ok |
11:10 |
SeanDaly |
The idea is Walter & I (or others) could have fairly good "live" coverage at that number |
11:10 |
|
switching between ourselves, and with voicemail backup either of us could access |
11:11 |
|
Scenario: journalist calls, she gets either myself, Walter, or the voicemail; in this latter case either of us or e.g. dfarning could call back |
11:11 |
mchua |
SeanDaly, I'm content to let you make that decision for us by Friday and just tell us the option you chose and why; I think we have our options laid out, and I trust your judgment. |
11:11 |
|
(in other words, "we're 12 minutes into meeting. ;) |
11:11 |
|
er, closequotes. " |
11:11 |
SeanDaly |
mchua: ok ok :D |
11:11 |
mchua |
;) |
11:12 |
SeanDaly |
I'll take this offline and let's decide by tomorrow so set up and running by Friday thanks jt4sugar |
11:12 |
|
Next item: the press release |
11:12 |
|
The good news is, it's done |
11:12 |
|
Walter & I worked on it |
11:13 |
|
The bad news is, I hesitated to debate every line in it with everyone because of the time constraint |
11:13 |
|
but Walter says he is happy with it |
11:13 |
caroline |
Do we have guidance for community members around how to blog about it effectively? |
11:14 |
SeanDaly |
caroline: in fact it would be great if soomeone stepped up to blog, it can't be me I'm not (yet) a blogger |
11:14 |
|
I'm concentrating on getting it to journalists |
11:14 |
caroline |
there are quite a few bloggers int he community |
11:14 |
|
so if we give some guidance I'm sure we can get it in half a dozen blogs |
11:15 |
SeanDaly |
caroline: I know some blogggers whom I could mail but any suggestions more than welcome |
11:15 |
jt4sugar |
How is release planned to all publications at once or a week long roll out |
11:15 |
SeanDaly |
Education and kids oriented blogs? |
11:15 |
mchua |
SeanDaly, once you post the press release I'll be blogging and plan on forwarding it out to my network of bloggers and all that. |
11:15 |
SeanDaly |
jt4sugar: tsunami style |
11:15 |
caroline |
What I mean by guidance is - When to publish, do you repeat it or do you link to it, |
11:16 |
SeanDaly |
Press release time is 9:00 AM EDT March 16th |
11:16 |
|
The idea is to send mailing to all publications on the list at once |
11:16 |
|
The mailing will have press release in plaintext, plus PDF, plus a nice screenshot of Sugar, plus the SugarLabs logo |
11:17 |
|
caroline: you bring me to point 3 which is a press page on the website |
11:17 |
|
That page will have links to HTML and PDFs of the press release(s) |
11:18 |
|
And, we are going to publish in several languages! |
11:18 |
sdziallas |
is going to mention soas (press) stuff probably in the next meeting or so. |
11:18 |
SeanDaly |
sdziallas: which meeting? |
11:18 |
sdziallas |
SeanDaly: marketing meeting, too ;) |
11:19 |
SeanDaly |
sdziallas: what do you have in mind for SoaS? |
11:19 |
sdziallas |
SeanDaly: might well be that we'd consider getting soas out of the door soonish, and would probably be good to get it released soonish after having announced the Sugar release. |
11:19 |
|
SeanDaly: I'm not sure, whether it will be stable enough until March 16th. |
11:20 |
SeanDaly |
We need to be very careful not to oversell SoaS |
11:20 |
|
In the release we say that this is 0.84 and SoaS is in active development |
11:20 |
sdziallas |
SeanDaly: But it might want to push it a bit, though... |
11:20 |
SeanDaly |
And SoaS will be v1.0 and rready in "Q3 2009" |
11:20 |
sdziallas |
SeanDaly: Q3? oh... |
11:20 |
SeanDaly |
sdziallas: in fact we do push it because we ask for testers |
11:21 |
|
to be clear, we will be testing & improving SoaS continuously |
11:21 |
jt4sugar |
Should think of help us build SoaS press release for Education community week or two following |
11:21 |
SeanDaly |
But v1.0 will be very robust, our first "product" |
11:21 |
erikos |
joined - sory to be late |
11:21 |
SeanDaly |
greetings erikos |
11:21 |
sdziallas |
SeanDaly: Yeah, I know. And I'd really like to get as many as possible. But as I tried to explain some time ago on #sugar, if the base system - Fedora - is still unstable, it might make a bad impression on the users. Even if Sugar isn't the cause. |
11:22 |
SeanDaly |
sdziallas - exactly, which is why we don't want to oversell SoaS right now |
11:22 |
|
jt4sugar: keep in mind we are planning a developer press release for 0.84.1 or 0.84.2 |
11:23 |
erikos |
i think we mainly want to announce it in the regard of testing |
11:23 |
|
maybe not even needed to mention in the press release |
11:23 |
SeanDaly |
What would make sense would be a release for FOSS VT first week of April; when we will have sugarlabs branded USB sticks |
11:23 |
erikos |
we can update the state on the web page |
11:23 |
SeanDaly |
erikos: we mention it as "in active development, available Q3 2009" |
11:24 |
erikos |
SeanDaly: yup - that sounds good to me |
11:24 |
jt4sugar |
Just want to give Computer Science folks a chance to take it for a ride-Service Learning |
11:24 |
SeanDaly |
reminder, key goals of this press release are: "we are alive & kicking", "active development", "seeking volunteers, funding & testers" |
11:25 |
|
jt4sugar: we can push that without a SoaS release |
11:25 |
mchua |
sees the world "volunteers" and goes "eep!" |
11:25 |
SeanDaly |
mchua: why "eep"? |
11:25 |
erikos |
wants as well a world of volunteers |
11:26 |
mchua |
volunteers for what? what are they going to do? are we ready to welcome, mentor, and utilize them? |
11:26 |
SeanDaly |
I have no doubt we will recruit volunteers |
11:26 |
caroline |
We need volunteer managers :) |
11:26 |
mchua |
do we have a good new volunteer experience? I'm not convinced. |
11:26 |
caroline |
volunteer volunteer managers |
11:26 |
mchua |
I'm trying to do that, but am spread a little thin right now... |
11:26 |
SeanDaly |
I've worked in places with 3 managers for every worker |
11:26 |
tomeu |
hmm, are countries already using sugar but not contributing to development yet a target of this press release? |
11:26 |
caroline |
mchua needs to be a different meeting |
11:26 |
mchua |
caroline + 1 |
11:27 |
erikos |
tomeu: interesting point |
11:27 |
mchua |
ok, I'll keep an eye out for the "new volunteers go $here!" portion of the release and make sure something/somebody's there to catch them. |
11:27 |
|
</worry> |
11:27 |
SeanDaly |
tomeu: concentrating on mainstream, education, and tech journalists in USA |
11:27 |
|
with some from France thrown in |
11:27 |
tomeu |
SeanDaly: ok, just checking |
11:28 |
SeanDaly |
And any other publication which has been added to the contacts wiki page |
11:28 |
mchua |
I would personally prefer not to push the "and floods of volunteers join us *NOW!*" angle too much, since a big goal for me for the next release cycle is to build and test those intro experiences with smaller numbers of new volunteers so that we can *really* ask for a flood in 6 months. |
11:28 |
SeanDaly |
With PR, there are usually a very few influential publications, and favorable coverage cascades, and often ricochets around the Net |
11:28 |
walterbender |
tomeu: I will try to get it placed in publications in Brazil, Argentina, Peru, and Uruguay |
11:29 |
|
needs to recurit more translators |
11:29 |
|
SeanDaly: I never compiled my list for you from Latin America... |
11:29 |
SeanDaly |
mchua: part of the solution to that problem could be to simplify feedback |
11:29 |
|
walterbender: ah yes anything you have please |
11:30 |
tomeu |
walterbender: maybe the sugarbrasil guys in ning could translate to portuguese? |
11:30 |
SeanDaly |
mchua: for example: do we have a webform for feedback? Is there a SoaS test scenario protocol? |
11:30 |
walterbender |
tomeu: I plan to contact them as soon as we have a final go on the press release. |
11:30 |
mchua |
SeanDaly: Nope, and working on it - first we need to get SoaS easy to boot from and on all platforms... |
11:31 |
sdziallas |
SeanDaly: it would be good if somebody tested SoaS against the smoke processes (for determining whether Sugar) works... |
11:31 |
tomeu |
walterbender: makes sense |
11:31 |
walterbender |
tomeu: and my friends at Grupo Estado. |
11:31 |
|
and Clarin |
11:31 |
tomeu |
sdziallas: maybe the .nz guys could do that? |
11:31 |
|
guesses those are media groups |
11:31 |
SeanDaly |
For example, webform (needs database behind it of course) users enters machine, SoaS build, x-y- works, z doesn't |
11:31 |
mchua |
sdziallas: I was trying to do that, but got stuck at "make a stick and get it to boot." Will ask questions on #sugar later, though. |
11:32 |
sdziallas |
mchua: what are all platforms? virtual machines? the XO? the classmate-pc? normal desktop pc's? this is what needs to be defined imo. we need to figured out, what we want to get worked. |
11:32 |
|
mchua: okay, cool ;) will follow up with you then... |
11:32 |
SeanDaly |
I've had an awful time with the two SoaS images |
11:32 |
mchua |
anyway, it sounds like the press release is doing *really* well (aside from this "what to do re: feedback?" discussion thread, which can come out later once we see the release.) |
11:32 |
SeanDaly |
And a good, but not great time with the liveCD |
11:32 |
mchua |
and SoaS isn't part of this release anyway, so marketing-wise I think we're pretty cool. |
11:32 |
sdziallas |
tomeu: why not? sounds like a beginning ;)... |
11:32 |
mchua |
er, press release, I mean. |
11:33 |
SeanDaly |
But, I do have a wealth of information on what didn't work on which platforms |
11:33 |
|
erikos needs that info |
11:33 |
|
mchua: we mention it for the future without overselling it |
11:33 |
erikos |
SeanDaly: you mean - info about the non working soas? |
11:33 |
mchua |
notes we have 25 minutes and 4 out of 6 agenda items left ;) |
11:33 |
SeanDaly |
erikos: yes |
11:34 |
mchua |
yay, non-overselling mentions! |
11:34 |
SeanDaly |
mchua: we basically covered point 3 we just need to liaise with Christian on it |
11:34 |
mchua |
I stand corrected. 50% to go, then. |
11:34 |
erikos |
SeanDaly: ok |
11:34 |
SeanDaly |
erikos: yes- I'm mystified as to how to "file a bug report" |
11:35 |
|
i'm sure it's easy but I'm confused |
11:35 |
erikos |
SeanDaly: oh - you tried already at dev.sugarlabs.org? |
11:35 |
SeanDaly |
I'm worried teachers would be even more confused |
11:35 |
sdziallas |
smells a need for quite some follow-ups on #sugar etc. |
11:35 |
SeanDaly |
erikos: no, I didn't know that URL |
11:35 |
erikos |
SeanDaly: oh, that is the first bad sign :( |
11:35 |
|
SeanDaly: ok, we need to work on that i guess |
11:36 |
SeanDaly |
What would be nice would be a webform: "Feedback for Sugar on a STick" |
11:36 |
sdziallas |
erikos: definitely +1 |
11:36 |
SeanDaly |
Which would maybe generate a real bug report? |
11:36 |
jt4sugar |
As well as an interest form: You have interest in Sugar Labs because...You would like to lend your talents to... |
11:36 |
erikos |
SeanDaly: hmm, i would be careful with these things |
11:37 |
SeanDaly |
In fact I found a wiki page that said to leave SoaS feedback but after doing so I can't find the page anymore |
11:37 |
erikos |
SeanDaly: i mean, i am ok with a feedback loop |
11:37 |
SeanDaly |
erikos: what's your concern? |
11:37 |
|
too many reports? |
11:37 |
|
or not usable enough? in that case if the webform is clear enough? |
11:37 |
erikos |
SeanDaly: a) you have to be responsive to feedback |
11:37 |
tomeu |
I guess we should learn about olpc experience with feedback from g1g1 |
11:38 |
erikos |
b) you have to be good in handling that data |
11:38 |
tomeu |
they set up forums, had a support gang, a tracker of customer requests, etc |
11:38 |
SeanDaly |
erikos: it could be as siimple as a thank-you e-mail & offering to send another e-mail if&when the bug is identified/fixed |
11:38 |
tomeu |
if sugarlabs want to ship end user products |
11:39 |
erikos |
tomeu: hah - another point |
11:39 |
tomeu |
and would be good if we can avoid making the same mistakes |
11:39 |
SeanDaly |
tomeu: Sugar on a Stick is a product, in development now, but a teacher and parent-facing product |
11:39 |
erikos |
right - so that is probably something Soas should care about |
11:39 |
|
Sugar - itself, needs mostly a bug tracker |
11:39 |
|
in the first place |
11:39 |
tomeu |
SeanDaly: that's what I mean, if we want to ship end-user products, we cannot behave like just a open source project |
11:40 |
erikos |
SeanDaly: that is part of the ongoing discussion - if Soas is a Sugar Labs product |
11:40 |
tomeu |
I guess we can inspire in mozilla about user support and QA |
11:40 |
SeanDaly |
tomeu: yes... to obtain teacher buy-in which I consider vital for Sugar's success, we have to be obtaining feedback from them |
11:40 |
tomeu |
erikos: I think it's too late and it has been decided it is |
11:40 |
walterbender |
tomeu: so maybe a separate entity (or entities) run the SoaS product support... |
11:40 |
erikos |
tomeu: when, who? |
11:41 |
SeanDaly |
I haven't looked at feedback models although we said we would work on this 3 weeks ago the launch is priority |
11:41 |
tomeu |
erikos: well, it's being announced as a product, right? |
11:41 |
|
walterbender: that would simplify things, I think |
11:41 |
SeanDaly |
"SoaS a product for Q3 2009" |
11:41 |
erikos |
tomeu: i think if we want to - we can still change that |
11:42 |
walterbender |
maybe ^a product^will be launched |
11:42 |
SeanDaly |
we have the right to be inefficient, but only until a product is released |
11:42 |
|
Then we will need to be more efficient |
11:42 |
jt4sugar |
We should also have a user tracker for teachers and students-Start with upcoming teacher survey |
11:43 |
SeanDaly |
Put another way, I feel this personally, we have an obligation to improve for the hundreds of thousands of Sugar kids & teachers |
11:43 |
erikos |
clearly thinks that we should have a seperate entity handling Soas |
11:43 |
SeanDaly |
erikos: separate structure & people you mean? |
11:44 |
erikos |
SeanDaly: separating a product from the community |
11:44 |
SeanDaly |
the product will be downloadable... Firefox is a product, Miro is a product |
11:45 |
|
jt4sugar: +1 |
11:45 |
tomeu |
how can we get feedback in a scalable way? |
11:46 |
SeanDaly |
tomeu: that's a good way to phrase the question |
11:46 |
tomeu |
I was expecting that would be local labs to get it, then digest it and present it to the global lab |
11:46 |
erikos |
ok let's put it this way - is Sugar on Ubuntu a Sugar Labs product? |
11:46 |
caroline |
when do we need this feedback process in place? |
11:46 |
erikos |
Soas - is for me the same |
11:46 |
tomeu |
as I was understanding that local labs is our way to scalability |
11:46 |
mchua |
interjects - do we need to discuss sticks or the printable PDF brochure before continuing? The Sugar Stories update is that I'm writing them this week, and that's it. |
11:47 |
caroline |
I agree, we've done this discussion many times. Is it time sensative? |
11:47 |
SeanDaly |
erikos: If I never see the Ubuntu desktop, it's a Sugar Labs product from a userland point of view |
11:47 |
dirakx |
tomeu: +1, local labs could help in giving scalability feedback. |
11:47 |
SeanDaly |
OK caroline's right we need to move along erikos I want to better uunderstand your concerns let's continue offline |
11:47 |
caroline |
I'd love to get a printable brochure so I could goto staples and ask for USB sticks |
11:47 |
tomeu |
SeanDaly: not offline! ;) |
11:47 |
|
but in another moment, sure |
11:48 |
dirakx |
local labs could be helping also in giving support for local ''costumers''. |
11:48 |
SeanDaly |
caroline: that's point 4 and I propose to have it ready by Thursday |
11:48 |
erikos |
SeanDaly: sure, did not meant to interrupt |
11:48 |
caroline |
thanks! |
11:48 |
walterbender |
what are the contents of this brochure? |
11:48 |
SeanDaly |
tomeu: I meant not here & now ;-) |
11:48 |
|
walterbender: digest of the static site |
11:48 |
|
erikos: no problem it's an important subject |
11:49 |
|
walterbender: the idea is a printable handout with the logo, introduction, explanation, screenshots |
11:49 |
|
But what we really need are released photos of kids using Sugar |
11:50 |
walterbender |
SeanDaly: I wish we had more of that... plenty of kids using laptops :( |
11:50 |
SeanDaly |
walterbender: the PDF brochure will be downloadable from the site and hopefully will land on teachers' desks after our PR |
11:50 |
jt4sugar |
I'm sure Birmingham, Al can get you the pictures you're looking for |
11:51 |
SeanDaly |
In fact I had an idea, to take a photo of a kid looking at that big colorful liveCD homepage on a PC |
11:52 |
|
jt4sugar: Really?? do you have a contact who could help us? Does the school have signed releases for the kids? |
11:52 |
caroline |
I talked to someone from Birmingham last week |
11:52 |
|
but we are all quite a ways away. |
11:52 |
SeanDaly |
Reminder, we have submitted a draft release to the SFC, waiting for feedback |
11:52 |
|
OK I would like to talk about Sugar Labs branded USB sticks, if I may |
11:53 |
caroline |
Are you looking for a photo for this press release? what time frame? |
11:53 |
SeanDaly |
caroline: for the PDF brochure, in time for the press release so... this weekend at the latests (!) |
11:53 |
caroline |
hmm I can get white kids this weekend probably. |
11:53 |
SeanDaly |
Not the end of the world if we don't have it, but humans always better than just screenshots |

caroline |

I have a 5-year-old (Chinese) cousin. She uses Sugar incessantly. I have a camera, and will be seeing her tomorrow. I'm pretty sure her parents will be fine with it. |
11:54 |
jt4sugar |
mchua: Mel can you ask SJ for key contact down there |
11:54 |
SeanDaly |
mchua: it could be the back of her head as she looks at a Sugar screen |
11:54 |
caroline |
maybe put out the release on IAEP and tell people what you want and see what we get in. |
11:54 |
mchua |
+1 to caroline's idea. |
11:54 |
|
I'll also (if her parents are OK with it) get some photos of cousins tomorrow night |
11:54 |
walterbender |
jt4sugar: are you referring to Birmingham? |
11:54 |
SeanDaly |
The advantagge of a PC screen is: more colors, bigger, different from XO "proving" it runs on other platforms |
11:55 |
mchua |
maybe the 5-year-old playing the Activity her 13-year-old sister made. ;) |
11:55 |
jt4sugar |
walterbender: Yes |
11:55 |
walterbender |
jt4sugar: I can provide contacts |
11:55 |
caroline |
I will also forward the request directly to the Carol from Birmingham. |
11:55 |
|
but lets spread it widely. |
11:55 |
SeanDaly |
caroline: I'd like to do that with the PDF brochure but the problem with the press release is, as soon as it is on a web-facing list it is "released" |
11:56 |
mchua |
who is sending out the "plz send pics" help request? I think that's all we need to move to sticks and finish up |
11:56 |
jt4sugar |
walterbender: You would think they have many press releasable pictures |
11:56 |
SeanDaly |
So... re Sugar Labs branded USBs, I had wanted to make a choice by yesterday (!) I haven't yet |
11:56 |
caroline |
My thought was post the photo release document and ask people to email you photos WITH release forms. |
11:56 |
SeanDaly |
caroline: the SFC hasn't yet approved the text... I will ask dfarning to ping them |
11:57 |
caroline |
ok, lets get something within 24 hours if we can. |
11:57 |
SeanDaly |
the sublitted text is in the marketing list archives |

|
walterbender: any luck liaising with OLPC folks re: importing sticks from China? |
11:58 |
walterbender |
SeanDaly: they said they'd help, but I am waiting for specifics from you |
11:58 |
SeanDaly |
I also need to ping Christian, he had promised to mock up a color-inverted logo for a colored stick otherwise I'll just try to do it |
11:59 |
|
walterbender: OK I had located 2 Asian suppliers inexpensive & quick i will forward info to you |
12:00 |
|
Still on track to get 100 branded sticks to caroline by April 1st, but barely |
12:00 |
|
OK let's finish with Sugar STories, mel what can you tell us? |
12:01 |
mchua |
I'm writing them this week, the mailing list will have them this weekend. |
12:02 |
SeanDaly |
Great! will we be able to put 2 or 3 of them up on the site for Monday do you think? |
12:02 |
mchua |
Going to profile Olin first, since I have ready access to them, they've been doing interesting things for a long time, and we want to do outreach to uni groups specifically. If there's time and consent, I'd like to do caroline. ;) |
12:02 |
|
Yes. |
12:02 |
SeanDaly |
Not necessarily spotlighted on the static site, a wiki page? |
12:02 |
mchua |
Yes. |
12:02 |
sdziallas |
has got to run for dinner, will be back in some minutes ;) |
12:03 |
mchua |
There hasn't been anything going on behind the scenes since last week; I've just been waiting to be in the same physical location as the people I'm profiling. |
12:03 |
SeanDaly |
OK have we hit all the high notes? |
12:03 |
mchua |
I think so. :) |
12:03 |
walterbender |
mchua: if you want any copy-editing... |
12:03 |
SeanDaly |
Should we do a last marketing meeting before the press release? |
12:04 |
mchua |
walterbender: totally. I'll send it to the list and beg for feedback/copyedits. |
12:04 |
walterbender |
SeanDaly: I'm around... |
12:04 |
SeanDaly |
Friday for example, not conflicting with another meeting? |
12:04 |
|
walterbender: OK but I need to run too soonish |
12:04 |
mchua |
SeanDaly: YES PLEASE - I think the hour right before we push the "send the release out!" should be an "I'll be on IRC, join me, we need to launch A B and C" hour of sanitychecks and massive sending-outs. |
12:05 |
walterbender |
There is an Activity Meeting Friday... but just pick a time... |
12:05 |
SeanDaly |
walterbender: I was confused enough today, what'a good seggestion for EDT? 11 AM? |
12:06 |
walterbender |
SeanDaly: doesn't matter for me... |
12:06 |
SeanDaly |
When is the Activity Meeting? |
12:06 |
walterbender |
SeanDaly: right now, it is 12:05 EST |
12:06 |
tomeu |

12:06 |
SeanDaly |

12:07 |
walterbender |
the Activity Meeting is scheduled for 13:00 EST on Friday |
12:07 |
SeanDaly |

12:07 |
walterbender |
SeanDaly: what time is it UTC right now? 1400? |
12:07 |
|

12:07 |
SeanDaly |
OK how about 12:00 EST (11:00 EDT) on Friday for prelaunch Marketing Meeting? |
12:08 |
|
It's 1700 in UTC+1 |
12:08 |
walterbender |
OK. See you then. |
