16:00 | SeanDaly | greetings JT4sugar glad you could make it |
16:00 | JT4sugar | Hi Sean |
16:00 | SeanDaly | #start-meeting |
16:00 | meeting | Meeting started Fri Feb 1 16:00:40 2013 UTC. The chair is SeanDaly. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.debian.org/MeetBot. |
16:00 | Useful Commands: #action #agreed #help #info #idea #link #topic #endmeeting | |
16:01 | SeanDaly | #topic Google Code-In PR |
16:01 | I will write first draft tonight | |
16:01 | cjl said he would assist with Spanish translation | |
16:02 | I have no usable photos yet, from either winner | |
16:02 | this is a real problem since photos are absolutely critical to getting this PR picked up | |
16:04 | I have asked both winners 2 days ago & yesterday to send photos, describing what I need, but nothing received | |
16:04 | I need assistance from cjl & walterbender | |
16:05 | deadline is Monday noon EST but PR should really be ready two hours before at the latest | |
16:05 | JT4sugar | Maybe have Walter ask them may get better reply. Walter in SF for Sugar Cloud Mtg-said he would be on #sugar he's good with gmail to |
16:07 | SeanDaly | yes will try to mail him |
16:07 | JT4sugar | You talked to CJL so your good on written content just photos the issue? |
16:08 | SeanDaly | yes, I have all the background I need to write |
16:09 | however not sure about quoting winners, quotes a bit generic e.g. "i like coding for Sugar" | |
16:11 | JT4sugar | In email to Walter you may ask him to ask them "Why they like coding for Sugar?" to get more in depth quote |
16:13 | Just think when they see Walter Bender in their email box they will respond to what he's asking for | |
16:14 | SeanDaly | hmm he had asked them for photos and they both sent something some days later, and unfortunately unusable :-( |
16:16 | JT4sugar | Depending on their location and there kids they may not have the portrait or good shot available. If no photos of them is there a Sugar/GCI graphic to be used |
16:18 | SeanDaly | GCI has a logo... would need permission from GOOG to use it... may be possible; I mailed Steph Taylor (GCI coordinator) for a PR quote this afternoon, could ask her when I get a reply |
16:20 | my plan is to have lots of quotes; this will communicate SL alive & kicking | |
16:21 | quotes: walter, 2 winners, cjl, gerald Ardito about Digital Learning Day, Steph Taylor | |
16:21 | JT4sugar | Seems all you can do is ask Walter to try and facilitate and hope for usable content but I wouldn't count on it being usable so a plan B graphic may be only option. Push him to get deeper quotes from them that would seem more important to story than the picture(which would be nice). Quote line up looks good |
16:21 | SeanDaly | I had asked Gerald if he could do a blog post or send a link to a video in to http://www.digitallearningday.org but he wasn't able to unfortunately |
16:22 | but a quote from him will be OK | |
16:22 | objective there is to communicate that Sugar not only for developing countries | |
16:23 | JT4sugar | Wiil you be mentioning breakdown of participants and from how many countries? |
16:25 | SeanDaly | not complete breakdown, but number of participants & mentors and mention of coutries with special mention for Peru who fielded first GCI participant |
16:26 | JT4sugar | Sounds ggod |
16:26 | good | |
16:27 | SeanDaly | i will try to mail walter now morning on West coast |
16:28 | JT4sugar | OK-Will you be sending out google link with draft like you have in past? |
16:30 | SeanDaly | indeed if it works ever since bernie shut down Google docs sending PR is a major headache and not sure if sharing will work with other account (hopefully will) |
16:32 | JT4sugar | If you set share in doc to specific people(their email) or anyone with link you should be good |
16:33 | SeanDaly | ah yes that's right ok shouldn't be a problem then |
16:35 | JT4sugar | You may want to revisit the need for a PR infrastructure via Google Docs with Walter and Bernie and see if can be set up again to make things easy for community |
16:36 | SeanDaly | yes, if bernie had only asked before shutting it down i could have explained |
16:38 | ok need to sign off soon, will send link to draft later - any other questions on GCI PR? deadline is Monday noon EST but of course should be finalized day before | |
16:39 | JT4sugar | No-I will be around till Sunday 4pm EST then off to watch Super Bowl |
16:39 | SeanDaly | i looked at Spanish PR option but costs money... could still decide to do it up to last minute if we have translation in hand |
16:40 | ah yes Super Bowl Sunday it's been a long time since I had one! | |
16:40 | JT4sugar | Also would be good to set larger Marketing PR strategy mtg for next week or following. |
16:41 | SeanDaly | we'll likely do a Monday morning linkup by e-mail or IRC right before sending out PR |
16:41 | JT4sugar | Ok I'll keep look out |
16:42 | SeanDaly | Yes fully agree for larger strategy meeting - only have time to work on GCI PR until Tuesday. I've been updating press list |
16:42 | JT4sugar | Sounds good-Enjoy the Weekend! |
16:43 | SeanDaly | oh one more thing |
16:43 | I need to send out a photo release form to winners for parent/guardian to sign | |
16:43 | satellit | SeanDaly look at this page for larger strategy info http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/F[…]ar_on_a_Stick_v8_.CA.BB.C5.8Chelo_.CA.BBai |
16:43 | SeanDaly | i asked Bradley at SFC for feedback; but no reply |
16:45 | re SoaS: I strongly believe VM approach best | |
16:45 | fundamental problem is, netbook market disappearing as Android tablet and Apple iDevice markets explode | |
16:45 | Asus just stopped EeePC netbook production | |
16:46 | satellit | unfortunately soas v8 does not install atm need to lok at alternatives offered on that page |
16:46 | JT4sugar | Not sure how you would be able to turn that around in time. Can you get sign off digitally? Do winners know they need parents to sign off? |
16:46 | SeanDaly | while Raspberry Pi topped 1,000,000 units sold, half of those in the past four months (!!) |
16:46 | satellit | sugar f17 works on Raspberry Pi |
16:46 | SeanDaly | hi satellit |
16:47 | satellit | http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/T[…]g/Reports/ARM_RPi |

16:48 | JT4sugar | Need 15,0000 Sugar F17 sd cards so Google can give them away with those Ras-pi's in the UK |
16:48 | SeanDaly | satellit: possible to read text on that tiny without holding up to face? |
16:49 | JT4sugar: all we need is to have an official SD image carried by RPi's 3 distributoes, who push out to growing reseller network; for the moment only Debian offered | |
16:50 | satellit | not sure support-gang![]() |
16:50 | fedora 17 sugar works on arm | |
16:50 | JT4sugar | SeanDaly, Can also try to work with Google to get an image put with the announced 15,000 they are giving away |
16:51 | satellit | http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/F[…]:RPI-sugar-f3.JPG |
16:51 | SeanDaly | JT4sugar: quite, but need to develop contacts first; we'll see how GCI PR goes |
16:52 | satellit | http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/T[…]M_RPi#Start_Sugar location of that .jpg FYI |

17:05 | SeanDaly | #endmeeting |
17:05 | meeting | Meeting ended Fri Feb 1 17:05:11 2013 UTC. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.debian.org/MeetBot. (v 0.1.4) |
17:05 | Minutes: http://meeting.sugarlabs.org/s[…]-01T16:00:40.html | |
17:05 | Log: http://meeting.sugarlabs.org/s[…]13-02-01T16:00:40 | |
17:09 | JT4sugar | satellit, Is plan to update Sugar on a stick project page with new SoaS release info? presently its showing Quandong |
17:12 | Is see F18 info below when scroll down but download link takes to F17 version | |
17:17 | satellit | That is up to pbrobinson to do or fgross |
17:17 | above my paygrade as a volunteer : ) | |
17:18 | Fedora_18 page has more info | |
17:18 | JT4sugar | OK will make note of that and bring up in marketing meeting so we can make sure we have people landing where we would like-I am a little short on the wiki workings ability myself |
17:19 | SeanDaly | JT4sugar: wiki is rabbit warren difficult to find anyway - key is link rom homepage www.sugarlabs.org |
17:19 | satellit | I think it is due to Soas-live.iso anaconda f-18 not having netinstall that works yet |
17:20 | use my page as key to wiki: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Creation_Kit | |
17:20 | SeanDaly | staellit: maybe SCK better choice for link from homepage |
17:21 | satellit | on left side under Projects on every wiki page |
17:21 | not my choice to do | |
17:22 | JT4sugar | SeanDaly, Granted but when we want educators who aren't super technical we need to give a slimed down page so as not to overwhelm them. Were not lacking information its just we need to pick a few good pieces to get them started |
17:22 | satellit | look at http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/S[…]t#Advanced_Topics link at bottom for more advanced info |
17:24 | http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/D[…]oads/Landing_page is such an attempt | |
17:24 | top of left list | |
17:24 | not mine | |
17:24 | I do not maintain it | |
17:26 | SeanDaly | last time i tried to make a wiki page more readable for teachers, a community member wiped out all my edits, after 3 days i gave up was very disheartening |
17:27 | JT4sugar | satellit, When you say top left of list what particular link? On downloads page right? |
17:28 | satellit | You can start a custom page just edit an existing one's link at top of browser and edit it (add -something0 and you get a new one to create |
17:28 | Downloads on top left collumn | |
17:28 | walterbender has quit IRC | |
17:28 | JT4sugar | SeanDaly, We will have to come up with some type of strategy to deal with this. Maybe separate Educator Wiki Pages area. Or a section on Website that is more self contained |
17:29 | satellit, Gotcha | |
17:29 | satellit | try this : wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Downloads/Educator-page |
17:29 | you will get a new page to write in | |
17:30 | SeanDaly | JT4sugar: actually plan was to migrate to new website where wiki remains work area, but not teacher-facing orientation |
17:30 | satellit | or any variation from whatever page you want |
17:31 | I will try to help if you make a new page to write links to rest of wiki | |
17:33 | JT4sugar | satellit, Thanks after we figure out a doable strategy then might move forward on that type of page |
17:35 | satellit | yw : ) |
17:39 | SeanDaly has quit IRC | |
17:40 | JT4sugar | Signing off-Thanks Satelit! |
