| [21:40] <PrivateVoid> tyche -- here is the announcement - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BeginnersTeam/FocusGroups/Education/Events/01172009 | |
| [21:40] <PrivateVoid> for one of the events | |
| [21:42] <tyche> Times for the Beginners Team Education Focus Group? | |
| [21:43] <PrivateVoid> oops... missed that 1800 GMT until done | |
| [21:43] <PrivateVoid> that should match with UTC right now | |
| [21:43] <tyche> OK, How long do you expect it to run? | |
| [21:43] <PrivateVoid> its an open Q&A | |
| [21:43] <PrivateVoid> I would expect it to go 1-2 hours... | |
| [21:44] <PrivateVoid> but it might last longer | |
| [21:44] <PrivateVoid> is that ok for it to be open ended? | |
| [21:45] <tyche> I'll put it in for 2 hours. You don't want to have competition for the channel. -classroom isn't usually busy, except in spurts. But this way you'd have at least that much time. | |
| [21:45] <PrivateVoid> cool thanks | |
| [21:45] <PrivateVoid> also informing pleia2 | |
| [21:45] <tyche> kk | |
| [21:45] <tyche> It should be in the Fridge shortly. Just entering it in the Google calendar first. | |
| [21:47] <PrivateVoid> cool... thanks | |
| [21:47] <tyche> Will this be a regularly recurring event? | |
| [21:48] <PrivateVoid> not yet | |
| [21:48] <tyche> kk | |
| [21:48] <PrivateVoid> we are working to build a recurring Q&A core, but not enough 'instructors' yet | |
| [21:49] <PrivateVoid> can you add (in UWN) that the Education Focus Group of the Ubuntu Forums Beginners Team is looking for more instructors? | |
| [21:50] <tyche> No problem. When it does become recurring, let me know, so I can mark the Google calendar. That way it'll show up so it will be entered manually in the Fridge calendar. | |
| [21:50] <tyche> I'll put it as a note on the event. | |
| [21:50] <PrivateVoid> cool. thanks. | |
| [21:52] <tyche> PrivateVoid: See http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/1768 | |
| [21:53] <tyche> PrivateVoid: See also http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event/2009/01/01/month/all/all/1 | |
| [21:54] <PrivateVoid> cool... thanks | |
| [21:54] <tyche> The first link I showed you is about how it would appear in the UWN | |
| [21:54] <PrivateVoid> looks great to me | |
| [21:55] <tyche> We'll get you trained right, yet. Hee hee | |
| [21:58] <PrivateVoid> eventually | |
| [21:58] <PrivateVoid> tyche, is is 'acceptable' to put information about books that are coming out that are on-topic to an event... or is that a bad thing? | |
| [22:00] <PrivateVoid> tyche, like this -- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewYorkTeam/Events/20090108 | |
| [22:00] <PrivateVoid> should I remove the books? | |
| [22:00] <tyche> If you did a review of the book on a blog, it might go in a different area of the UWN. It should be something "On Topic" for the UWN, primarily about Ubuntu in one form or another. | |
| [22:00] <PrivateVoid> not in relation to IWN | |
| [22:00] <PrivateVoid> UWN | |
| [22:01] <tyche> The event itself, the demonstration, could go in the UWN. I don't think the books could, though. | |
| [22:02] <tyche> You need to list a date for that event, too. | |
| [22:02] <PrivateVoid> I agree... in your opinion is it OK to put the information in the event description? | |
| [22:02] <PrivateVoid> yeah... still editing the page ... just wanted to know if I should remove the books | |
| [22:03] <tyche> As part of the link, yes. That's resource information for people that are interested. | |
| [22:03] <PrivateVoid> k | |
| [22:03] <PrivateVoid> I will have that cleaned up and complete in a minute then | |
| [22:03] <tyche> Try to fill out the first paragraph more, so I've got some meat to work with when I write it up for the UWN | |
| [22:04] <PrivateVoid> ok | |
| [22:06] <PrivateVoid> dinner is served... will get it done after that | |
| [22:07] <tyche> kk | |
| [23:01] <tyche> Rinchen: ping | |
