04:05:12 <dramsey> Understood
04:05:13 <FranciscoD> There's nothing on the agenda to discuss, which is probably why no one is here

04:08:41 <dramsey> Looks like No action items from the past meetings
04:08:41 <FranciscoD> Not that I know of. These items are stale and most of them are now obsolete

04:10:05 <dramsey> #topic Open Floor
04:10:19 <FranciscoD> dramsey: Why are we having this meeting if the agenda is completely empty?
04:10:30 <dramsey> That is a great question.
04:10:44 <dramsey> I think that I offer my time to address questions via IRC
04:10:53 <dramsey> As well as to support our APAC efforts such as FAD.
04:11:01 <dramsey> Both yourself and I are busy
04:11:14 <dramsey> I am certain that attendance is never easy as we get  busy
04:11:20 <dramsey> eof from me.
04:11:21 <dramsey> ;)
04:11:29 <FranciscoD> dramsey: you didn't really answer the question ;)
04:11:36 <dramsey> Other thoughts?
04:11:39 <FranciscoD> The meeting should've been cancelled.
04:11:55 <maeniel> !
04:11:55 <dramsey> Okay.
04:12:01 <dramsey> -Yes maeniel
04:12:10 <opcode> Question:  Can anyone participate in these meetings or are non-ambassadors to be in "spectator only" mode?
04:12:16 <maeniel> I attended because I held an informal fedora night at my tlug
04:12:30 <dramsey> #info maeniel held an informal fedora night at my tlug
04:12:31 <maeniel> and have been reading the fedora marketing etc mailing lists where things look promising
04:12:34 <FranciscoD> opcode: any one is welcome to attend
04:12:43 <maeniel> eof
04:12:49 <dramsey> Thank you, maeniel
04:12:56 <FranciscoD> maeniel: Have you mailed the ambassadors list with a report?
04:12:56 <dramsey> I like to read updates.
04:13:08 <maeniel> franciscoD no I haven't
04:13:14 <FranciscoD> dramsey: they are generally to be done on the ML, not during an IRC meeting :)
04:13:31 <FranciscoD> maeniel: please do, so folks know what you've been upto and how things are going on down there
04:13:46 <FranciscoD> If there's nothing else, I'd like to please end the meeting?
04:14:01 <maeniel> franciscoD: sure is there a current format for that report I can follow, I recall seeing one?
04:14:18 <FranciscoD> maeniel: No format. Just send out a mail with a recap etc.
04:14:21 <FranciscoD> It's very informal
04:14:25 <FranciscoD> Closing meeting in 5
04:14:28 <dramsey> +1
04:14:28 <maeniel> sure thing

04:14:29 <FranciscoD> 4
04:14:47 <maeniel> dramsey: the ambassadors pack and livecds are gaining momentum
04:15:07 <dramsey> What is the Ambassadors' pack?
04:15:20 <FranciscoD> dramsey: the normal release stuff that marketing creates for ambassadors to use
04:15:45 <dramsey> +1 FranciscoD and maeniel.  That is new to me.
04:15:46 <dramsey> ;)
04:15:58 <FranciscoD> dramsey: maeniel : I'm going to head out. Need to pick up my laundry. Please close the meeting when you're done talking :)

04:18:07 <maeniel> :)
04:18:25 <dramsey> Ankur provided his insight to you and guidance which is perfect.
04:18:43 <dramsey> +1 for cool media maeniel.
04:18:52 <dramsey> What cool media do you think exists?
04:19:02 <dramsey> Or needed?
04:20:05 <maeniel> I haven't seen this media but from the ml seems there are posters a plenty and digital tools live business card generators with fedora branding etc
04:20:16 <dramsey> +1
04:20:21 <FranciscoD> dramsey: I'm only going to turn up if there's an agenda
04:20:50 <FranciscoD> maeniel can talk to us anytime about the mktg activities. The meeting isn't necessary for it IMO.
04:20:54 <dramsey> Understood FrandscoD, I appreciate your time and continued support of APAC.  Best to you for your studies.
04:21:15 <FranciscoD> Great.
