23:02 | the theme is the next generation of hackers | |
23:03 | ClaudiaU | nice |
23:03 | walterbender | I think it will be a nice way to kick off the new year PR campaign. |
23:03 | the winners are a secret | |
23:03 | but I will say they span two continents | |
23:04 | cjl | Not an easy process, there wer eso many good contributors |
23:04 | sdanielf | walterbender, let's keep it secret :) |
23:04 | walterbender | which speaks well to the international nature of our program |
23:04 | and there is some really nice work to be folded into the next release | |
23:05 | cjl | Whihc we are tracking until it lands in repos |
23:05 | walterbender | sdanielf contributed a great patch: to allow multiple home views |
23:05 | and we have a patch from aguz to load a picture on the home view | |
23:06 | cjl: can you paste the link? | |
23:06 | cjl | and some great i18n work done on a bunch of activities |
23:06 | gonzalo__ | i have received good contributions for activities too |
23:06 | walterbender | yes... some very nice patches. |
23:06 | gonzalo__: have the fototoon patches landed? | |
23:07 | and some nice infoslicer patches too | |
23:07 | gonzalo__ | walterbender, yes, not released the activity yet, but are in git |
23:07 | cjl | http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/G[…]/GCI2012_followup is jsut the stuff we are chasing inot repos |
23:07 | walterbender | is behind... |
23:07 | gonzalo__ | cjl, i need update it |
23:07 | cjl | http://www.google-melange.com/[…]012#all_org_tasks is th efull list |
23:07 | walterbender | a couple of other bits of news |
23:08 | gonzalo__ | and the work done in tamtam was a really good help |
23:08 | sorry, please continue | |
23:08 | cjl | All in all a real win for Sugar labs (and I hope also the participants) |
23:09 | walterbender | we have been working with a company that makes bulk USB copy equipment (nextcopy) |
23:09 | they set up http://recycleusb.com/ for us | |
23:10 | and we are about to get a batch of 200 SoaS images to give to teachers | |
23:10 | sdanielf | great |
23:10 | walterbender | err... nexcopy (no t) |
23:11 | it is a nice idea and nice that it working... | |
23:11 | GeraldA <GeraldA!~quasselool-4a59b1ff.dyn.optonline.net> has joined #sugar-meeting | |
23:11 | gonzalo__ | +1 |
23:11 | cjl | hallo GeraldA |
23:11 | walterbender | GeraldA: need the backlog? |
23:12 | GeraldA | Yes, please |
23:12 | sdanielf has quit IRC | |
23:12 | walterbender | http://meeting.sugarlabs.org/s[…]etings/2013-01-28 |
23:13 | another new tidbit | |
23:13 | I spoke to the publisher of my book today and I will be able to distribute a pared back version of the Sugar Chapter freely | |
23:14 | GeraldA | That's great. |
23:14 | walterbender | they said they would entertain a Spanish and French translation too |
23:14 | final news tidbit: Raul, Bernie and I will be having a mini Sugar Camp next weekend. | |
23:15 | in SF | |
23:15 | cjl | walterbender: What are you focusing on? |
23:15 | walterbender | I think we'll look at Python 3 and Journal integration into the cloud |
23:16 | cjb has quit IRC | |
23:16 | walterbender | we'll be on #sugar during the camp.... so others can join us. |
23:17 | Did anyone have any specific topics for today? | |
23:17 | sdanielf <sdanielf!~danielf@r186-49-34-240.dialup.adsl.anteldata.net.uy> has joined #sugar-meeting | |
23:17 | JT4sugar | walterbender, Could you also begin discussions on how assessment might also be addressed or structured in the cloud initiatives |
23:18 | sdanielf | sorry, connection error |
23:18 | walterbender | JT4sugar: we could... I want to get over the initial hurdle of sharing projects and then we can figure out how we might add a layer on top of that |
23:18 | sdanielf: http://meeting.sugarlabs.org/s[…]etings/2013-01-28 | |
23:18 | JT4sugar | walterbender, Sounds good |
23:19 | walterbender | Sean would like to arrange a meeting to discuss PR, but this time is a little late for him. |
23:20 | I will let him schedule something and hopefully most of us can attend | |
23:20 | there is some real movement on HTML5 and Javascript support... | |
23:21 | gonzalo__ | walterbender, about the request of info about PythonJoven, I sent a mail to Flavio Danesse, but he was on vacation, replied he will send a report when he is back |
23:21 | walterbender | gonzalo__: great. |
23:21 | I was hoping for some photos too, for the PR event... | |
23:22 | gonzalo__ | maybe sdanielf have photos? or we can use photos shared in gooogle+ |
23:23 | walterbender | I was looking at some of the photos that Flavio has shared... some good ones |
23:23 | sdanielf | All photos I have were shared by Flavio. Ask him to redistribute them if necessary will be best. |
23:24 | walterbender | sdanielf: I want to have that conversation about how to get some teachers to lead the way to more and better use of Sugar in the classroom in .UY |
23:24 | ClaudiaU has some ideas on that too | |
23:25 | maybe when Flavio is back, we can schedule a chat? (in Spanish) | |
23:25 | ClaudiaU | sounds good |
23:25 | gonzalo__ | walterbender, about pr, maybe we can request a photo to every participant in GSoC and make some collage? |
23:25 | sdanielf | sure, he can join #sugar-meeting-es |
23:26 | cjb <cjb!~cjb2001:4830:1171:0:89e1:1697:6b49:d078> has joined #sugar-meeting | |
23:26 | walterbender | gonzalo__: we could try... cjl: do we have their emails? |
23:26 | cjl | walterbender: I think we may have them onmelange, but being underage is a bit of an issue |
23:27 | walterbender | yeah... right |
23:27 | gonzalo__ | cjl, i is a gently request..... |
23:27 | cjl | Theoretically they cannot consent ot a photographer's release\ |
23:28 | gonzalo__ | at times forget we lives in a paranoid world |
23:28 | cjl | *sigh* |
23:30 | walterbender | any other topics for today? |
23:30 | CanoeBerry | just a mention of Feb 22-24 in LA: http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale11x |
23:30 | gonzalo__ | i have a question, should we do some planning about community events? may be open to receive proposals? |
23:31 | CanoeBerry | where Caryl and likely George Hunt should be presenting Sugar * School Server on Rasperri Pi etc |
23:32 | walterbender | we could be more organized about it |
23:32 | sdanielf | walterbender: +1 |
23:33 | walterbender | also to take more advantage of the various conferences... for example, I am presenting at Pycon.... a chance to do some recruiting |
23:33 | ClaudiaU | walterbender: if our paper is accepted we can use it to motivate other people to do similar work |
23:33 | and we also talk about doing TA international day | |
23:33 | we should think about that | |
23:34 | i think both events will allow sugar to get closer to teachers | |
23:34 | walterbender | ClaudiaU: yes... we need to get moving on that so we can solicit some funding |
23:34 | ClaudiaU: I am at twine tomorrow | |
23:34 | ClaudiaU | me too |
23:35 | gonzalo__ | walterbender, we have participated in the Arg version of PyCon the last 3 years, is a great community |
23:35 | ClaudiaU | let's do some planning and we can report to others next week |
23:35 | walterbender | OK |
23:37 | #action I will ask Sean to schedule the PR meeting... in the meanwhile cjl and I will work with him on the GCI release for next week | |
23:37 | gonzalo__ | participate in other events is great, we need continue, but i was thinking in something like eduJam, but maybe with one objective |
23:37 | walterbender | #action gonzalo__ will speak with Flavio about meeting to discuss expanding his influence |
23:38 | gonzalo__ | perfect |
23:38 | walterbender | #action ClaudiaU and I will meet to start planning TA Day |
23:38 | ClaudiaU | sounds good |
23:39 | walterbender | gonzalo__: +1 to a SugarJam event with hackers and teachers |
23:39 | we need to fund raise for that too | |
23:40 | gonzalo__ | walterbender, tincho in (py) want do something |
23:40 | walterbender | yes... |
23:41 | ClaudiaU | SugarJam is broader in scope, but similar purpose.. no? |
23:41 | the idea is to open to the community... teacher in particular | |
23:41 | i think SugarJam could be great oportunity for teachers to feel that they have a voice | |
23:41 | walterbender | I think so... the problem I had with EduJam was convincing them to involve teachers... |
23:41 | ClaudiaU | and they can contribute |
23:42 | hmmm | |
23:42 | sdanielf | walterbender, another problem with EduJAM is that it's not free, people need to pay |
23:42 | gonzalo__ | there are two ideas, both importants, but not easy to put in the same event, one is involve teachers, other is have time to work/plan face to face |
23:42 | ClaudiaU | let's do one... showing results could be a good way to convince others |
23:43 | sdanielf: and let's try to make it free | |
23:43 | walterbender | gonzalo__: I think a Camp is different.... the Jam should be about sharing experiences and opening up new possibilities... |
23:43 | to try to use it for coding is overloading it | |
23:44 | we recently made that mistake in SF | |
23:44 | gonzalo__ | walterbender, yes, planning/discuss ideas is more important than coding in events |
23:45 | JT4sugar | Should think of building it around teachers and look to provide developers scholarships to attend and listen to figure out how they can Code for teachers needs. Fundraise for teacher and developer scholarships and do PR for it. |
23:45 | walterbender | JT4sugar: +1 |
23:45 | GeraldA | JT4Sugar +1 |
23:47 | ClaudiaU | +1 |
23:47 | walterbender | so we need a subcommittee to do the planning |
23:47 | and report back... | |
23:47 | any volunteers? | |
23:47 | GeraldA | Yes |
23:48 | gonzalo__ | if is in the south, i can help |
23:48 | walterbender | once we have a description, we can seek some funding |
23:48 | gonzalo__: maybe we meet in the middle (.NI)? | |
23:48 | GeraldA | Where would we have it? |
23:48 | ClaudiaU | .NI sounds good |
23:49 | gonzalo__ | walterbender, can be a good idea |
23:49 | walterbender | let's figure out what it is and then we can find a venue |
23:49 | I think there are a few potential funders for such things | |
23:50 | (how about Goa?) | |
23:50 | in India | |
23:50 | GeraldA | nice |
23:50 | gonzalo__ | should be nice |
23:50 | walterbender | well, if you guys can put together a prospectus, I'll help shop it around |
23:51 | ClaudiaU | I am happy to help |
23:51 | JT4sugar | I can work with Gerald to help put something together |
23:51 | GeraldA | That's great. |
23:51 | walterbender | is reminded, we need to work on the website too... will speak with Bernie on the weekend. |
23:52 | #action GeraldA will lead a team to put together a prospectus for a SugarJam | |
23:52 | needs to sign off soon today... grandfather duty | |
23:53 | gonzalo__ | :) |
23:53 | ClaudiaU | :) |
23:53 | walterbender | we have a lot queued up |
23:53 | GeraldA | :) |
23:53 | ClaudiaU | yes |
23:53 | walterbender | ClaudiaU: I'll find you at twine tomorrow |
23:53 | JT4sugar | walterbender, If you can get update from Bernie how GCI Website work will fit into infrastructure and steps needed going forward then we can hatch plan with Sean and others to move forward |
23:53 | sdanielf | :) walterbender, Is there time to tell a last idea? |
23:53 | ClaudiaU | yes! See you tomorrow |
23:54 | walterbender | sdanielf: yes... please |
23:54 | JT4sugar: I'll report back this weekend | |
23:54 | sdanielf | Events help to involve teachers, but they would be needing updated documentation |
23:54 | JT4sugar | walterbender, Great |
23:55 | walterbender | sdanielf: are you thinking of a doc sprint? |
23:55 | sdanielf | maybe, we are near to release Sugar 1 and some docs are of Sugar 0.86 |
23:56 | walterbender | sdanielf: I was hoping we'd get some videos from GCI |
23:56 | sdanielf: we did get an update of Sdenka's book to Sugar 0.98... | |
23:56 | sdanielf: but I agree... | |
23:56 | gonzalo__ | i was trying to involve people in update the help without success |
23:57 | sdanielf | I think we are needing to re-involve the documentation team |
23:57 | cjl | What happened wit hthe work CanoeBerry did on the Sugar book? |
23:58 | walterbender | sdanielf: we need to recruit a new team, I think... |
23:58 | CanoeBerry: ??? | |
23:58 | cjl | Not sure if it evere landed on FLOSSManuals or not |
23:58 | CanoeBerry | Julia Reynolds had taken it, Christoph D followed the results better than I. |
23:58 | walterbender | I cannot ever get FLOSS manuals to update so I have mostly given up on that route |
23:59 | gonzalo__ | ClaudiaU, do you know somthing about Julia? |
23:59 | walterbender | CanoeBerry: can you do some investigation into status? where the resources are kept? |
