02:09:02 <jflory7> juggler: Not yet, but if someone logs into the CommBlog, they should be able to see it.
02:09:20 <juggler> ah
02:09:37 <juggler> tell us about your announcement...is it the Friday announcement you mentioned earlier?
02:09:37 <jflory7> #info One last late announcement: tomorrow, a big announcement is coming on the Community Blog about the annual Fedora contributor conference, Flock 2016! Watch communityblog.fedoraproject.org for more info about the dates and location this year.
02:09:43 <jflory7> juggler: It is :)
02:09:51 <juggler> excellent
02:10:03 <linuxmodder> juggler is apparently still penning on it  :)
02:10:08 <linuxmodder> per the dashboard
02:10:11 <award3535> .famnaticket 119
02:10:12 <zodbot> award3535: #119 (OSCON 2016 booth) – FAmNA general trac - https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/119
02:10:30 <juggler> linuxmodder ... hmm..I hit the submit button. lemme log out and see if that fixes things...
02:10:32 <award3535> ok back on track,
02:10:42 * jflory7 nods
02:10:43 <award3535> lets look at the ticket
02:11:05 <juggler> linuxmodder.. just logged out. what does it say now?
02:11:34 <award3535> my feelings on this ticket is we should give the TX ambassadors a shot at this one
02:11:40 <MarkDude> OSCON, cost is now $7500
02:11:51 <jflory7> award3535: I was thinking so too
02:12:12 <MarkDude> Is Ubuntu/Canonical gonna be there? And if so, are they there in an easier fashion?
02:12:18 * jflory7 checked the dates and he wouldn't be able to attend unfortunately
02:12:35 <linuxmodder> easier fashion?
02:12:40 <jflory7> MarkDude: I would imagine they would have a presence, at the least
02:12:44 * juggler checked and hasn't seen a proposal page yet for OSCON 2016..?
02:12:47 * MarkDude is going to OSCON, but at some poin the cost for booth vs us having actual FEdorans there comes into play
02:12:49 <award3535> ruth has already been looking at the PO process
02:13:25 <award3535> we have been at oscon before (portland i beleive)
02:13:37 <MarkDude> OSCON is always a thing. One year I got our and Ubuntu's booth, lacfieor paid for them to ship media up (for Ubntu)
02:13:53 * MarkDude has gone for like 8 of last 10 years
02:13:55 <MarkDude> We go
02:14:13 <jflory7> Looks like this is the first year it is in Texas too.
02:14:15 <MarkDude> We can work with OSCON. Reach out to Tim
02:14:19 <award3535> that is why we need to offer it up to the TX ambassadors
02:14:32 <jflory7> +1 for approving the event for our TX Ambassadors
02:14:40 <MarkDude> Sure, in addition to Fedorans having gone for half a decade
02:14:45 <wrnash> +1
02:14:49 <award3535> masta and danofsaTX is in the area
02:14:52 <juggler> +1
02:14:52 <MarkDude> Just sayin' continuity
02:15:15 <wrnash> I'm in the area also.  I will need to check my schedule
02:15:16 <award3535> now if the TX ambassadors do not want to take this on, I will
02:15:44 <MarkDude> This is prime FOSS event
02:15:46 <linuxmodder> +1 for tx ambass priority from me
02:15:50 <wrnash> I should know if I can do it soon
02:15:57 * MarkDude is willing to help in any way possible, plans on going
02:16:20 <award3535> we also have maxamillion in the area as well
02:16:20 <MarkDude> TX should take lead of course, Im willing to intro, and get ball rolling if need be
02:16:39 <jflory7> We should definitely reach out to him and see if he already plans on going too
02:16:39 <juggler> likewise, I can volunteer for it and possibly speak there informally or formally
02:16:47 <wrnash> I can help out
02:17:00 <MarkDude> We can get a lightning spot or two, but speaking slots are full
02:17:01 <juggler> who would be the event owner for OSCON2016?
02:17:35 <award3535> we do have some time on this, we also need to get a event wiki started as well
02:18:12 <jflory7> So it sounds like an approval for beginning the process and we definitely want to make this happen
02:18:23 <juggler> any native TX designees for event owner? :)
02:18:54 <award3535> masta, danofsatx and wrnash
02:19:29 <MarkDude> Unless we get a lead tonight, I can do it and hand off to person. We always wait til last minute on OSCON
02:19:30 <juggler> might anyone like to be the prime?
02:19:48 <MarkDude> And this is why we wait til last minute :D
02:19:58 <kk4ewt> MarkDude,  if no one else tonight lets let award3535  take it
02:20:07 <award3535> MarkDude please go ahead and start the wiki
02:20:14 * MarkDude is in Cali, does OSCON when it was in Portland and even San Jose
02:20:14 <kk4ewt> nm
02:20:15 <wrnash> I will let you know next week if I can be prime.
02:20:26 <jflory7> wrnash++
02:20:38 <MarkDude> Will do, and let TX know they can have help, its not like we will leave them on their own
02:20:39 <wrnash> I'm not at a place I can check my schedule
02:21:00 <award3535> kk4ewt masta is closest to the event
02:21:39 * MarkDude will start wiki, copypasta earlier, and go from there. award3535 will get someone more local, he has the skillz
02:22:31 <jflory7> +1 for beginning the process and checking in next week with others
02:22:37 <MarkDude> $7500 is big chunk of money, but Fedora Next will be seen by many for the 1st time there

02:23:22 <juggler> no prob...glad you're here
02:23:23 <lord_drachenblut> Yo markDude

02:23:59 <lord_drachenblut> Awesome
02:24:09 <alick> hi everyone, I am alick, studing in College Station, TX now.
02:24:17 <juggler> welcome alick
02:24:21 * MarkDude +1 what jflory7 and hopes award3535 finds another
02:24:46 <jflory7> Hi alick!
02:24:57 <MarkDude> alick, you wanna be a helper person for event? You have any wiki skills?
02:25:00 <alick> glad to know OSCON will be in TX. But mid May... I might have to rearrange my summer plan to attend it, hmm
02:25:14 <alick> juggler: jflory7 hi thx
02:25:15 <cydrobolt> o/
02:25:19 <cydrobolt> hey alick
02:25:22 <juggler> from what I hear alick, it is worth it. :)
02:25:37 <jflory7> I think we can move onto next ticket for now, seems like we'll be able to decide more once we know the status of our Texas Ambassadors next week, and MarkDude can get rolling on the wiki.
02:25:37 <award3535> ok i think we can continue on to the next ticket, I will also contact ruth and find out what we are doing

02:26:13 <zodbot> award3535: #123 (Reviving the Campus Ambassador program) – FAmNA general trac - https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/123
02:26:24 <juggler> did we skip 120?
02:26:39 <MarkDude> No problem, welcome, feel free to PM if you have questions you may not want to ask in meeting :)
02:26:55 <award3535> linuxmodder saw you did some work on this already
02:27:11 <linuxmodder> award3535,  had a article that is still in the works  yes
02:28:07 <linuxmodder> whoever started the wiki in my absence  did nice work thanks
02:28:17 * MarkDude thinks Campus has many options, but in many ways it has some possiblity for being the magic thing we need now: glue
02:28:32 <linuxmodder> agree MarkDude
02:28:59 <MarkDude> Glue that holds things together. It lowers the bar for entry, but with people willng to teach/mentoring it keeps Fedora bar high
02:29:00 <award3535> +1
02:29:14 <jflory7> So, there was a discussion we had about this before--
02:29:21 <award3535> but the key is involvement as well
02:29:24 <lord_drachenblut> I think we need to try to get instructors hooked into this
02:29:26 <linuxmodder> entry low expectations high is great plan imo
02:29:33 <MarkDude> People are concerned it may thin our brand. But by having folks like nb and people on campus, we have feedbback loop
02:29:42 <jflory7> (Firstly, there is a channel for Campus Ambassadors specifically, feel free to join #fedora-campusamb)
02:30:05 <MarkDude> We have buy in from original owners bierte and rrix
02:30:06 <jflory7> A discussion nb, MarkDude, and I had was about how Campus Ambassadors relate to the rest of Ambassadors.
02:30:19 <jflory7> Currently, Campus Ambassadors has a prerequisite of being a regular Ambassador
02:30:37 <jflory7> However, we weren't sure that was the best way to go about it.
02:30:38 <linuxmodder> if we have no input of  new users (younger especially) how can we evolve is what my anser to the thin out arg is
02:30:44 * hardwyrd asking if I'm allowed in here ?
02:31:00 <kk4ewt> yes its an open meeting
02:31:03 <MarkDude> Folks like hardwyrd have been doing FOSS work on campus for years, doing a balance of meeting at school space, and coffe shops, food/fun
02:31:08 <linuxmodder> hardwyrd,  new ambassador  right ?
02:31:14 <hardwyrd> hi all :)
02:31:20 <MarkDude> Videos for hardwyrd
02:31:47 <MarkDude> Seeing how his experience with ITG can help with this.
02:31:54 <hardwyrd> linuxmodder: yes :) MarkDude's recruit :D
02:32:12 <MarkDude> Fedora magazine was big time draw for mktg, we can avoid that by making more folks to help, IMHO
02:32:35 <linuxmodder> being an ambass to start campus amb may be  much mentors surely should be
02:32:55 <jflory7> I personally think that for Campus Ambassadors to succeed, it should actually be a little bit the other way around. Campus Ambassadors and regular Ambassadors could be seen at the same level. A student could either opt to become a Campus Ambassador or become a regular Ambassador. Campus Ambassadors would work on tasks and events *specific* to education, such as organizing local hackathons / install parties and also try to attend events relating
02:32:55 <jflory7> to Fedora but with a specific spin on education. For example, they could possibly go with their school.
02:33:06 <linuxmodder> thinking a  3-9 month  involvement  requires reg amba for contining  tho
02:33:29 <jflory7> But to go to events, for example, like OSCON, that would require being a regular Ambassador as it would be less of an education-focused task and more on Fedora as a whole.
02:33:38 * MarkDude is using ITG as model for redoing BAMF effforts, his methods can be done easier. One of his deliverables is HOW they do it in PH
02:33:44 <jflory7> There would also be an easy track for a Campus Ambassador to become a full Ambassador too.
02:33:53 <kk4ewt> as it stands at the moment if someone wants to be an ambassador they can and skip Campus Ambassadors
02:34:04 <linuxmodder> specifiaclly  soas  jflory7  ? or just education period so like robotics and design
02:34:25 <hardwyrd> i think Fedora Campus Ambassadors are similar to Google Student Ambassadors (GSA)
02:34:31 <jflory7> But ideally, the entire point is for Campus Ambassadors to be a lower bar of entry than regular Ambassadors, but still maintain the high degree of quality and professionalism being an Ambassador demands.
02:34:36 <hardwyrd> i think exactly same way
02:35:08 <jflory7> kk4ewt: Not quite, the current way it works is Ambassadors is a required pre-requisite to become a Campus Ambassador, or at least in FAS
02:35:35 <jflory7> linuxmodder: I mean general education, can be engineering / robotics / design / etc.
02:35:44 <linuxmodder> jflory7,  initially that seems a non starting block
02:36:03 <jflory7> linuxmodder: Yeah, it can easily be changed, all that has to be done is change a few settings.
02:36:10 <MarkDude> jflory7, +1
02:36:40 <linuxmodder> more like a probie  ambass for first few months like the current  full ambass  vetting and if  doing  events a  sponsor should have to  vouch for them   the way I see it working
02:36:44 <jflory7> Anyways, that's all I have to say about this for now. I think we should start thinking of the infrastructural approach to how we would want to revive the program.
02:36:53 * jflory7 will add his thoughts to the ticket after the meeting.
02:37:09 <linuxmodder> me same
02:37:11 <jflory7> #action jflory7 Add thoughts and ideas about Campus Ambassador infrastructure to the ticket after the meeting

02:38:39 <zodbot> award3535: #131 (BrickHack 2016) – FAmNA general trac - https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/131
02:39:20 <MarkDude> Looks cool, makes me want to think of a reason Fedora should send me (but cant.)
02:39:44 <jflory7> This is my ticket too. I was hoping to propose a new event to FAmNA with this.
02:40:11 <award3535> jflory7 do you have any more information on the event such as how many sponsors can attend, usually there is a limit
02:40:39 <linuxmodder> I'm game for attending myself
02:40:40 <jflory7> award3535: I've asked an organizer that I know and there is definitely allowed to be more sponsors.
02:40:56 <jflory7> So if we choose to sponsor, we could definitely have a spot
02:40:58 <jflory7> Also--
02:41:27 <award3535> so how many ambassadors are allowed to attend
02:41:38 <jflory7> To actually have a table and other things requires a sponsorship of greater than $3k. However, I was able to talk down the sponsorship cost to $1.2k for a table, branding on merchandise, and we are allowed to bring mentors.
02:41:42 * MarkDude thinks a local person helping jflory7 would be of great use. Regional person
02:42:08 <jflory7> I can find that out. As far as I know, there is no immediate limit, but I would say... maybe seven max? I walked around the area it will be hosted today, and it's a good, decent size.
02:42:14 <jflory7> I would also like to have a few extra hands. :)
02:42:36 <jflory7> There is also a chance decauseAirplanes will be able to attend this as well. He was already planning on attending prior to this ticket, but his attendance is not yet confirmed or definite.
02:43:38 <jflory7> award3535: I just got confirmation that there would be no limit for the number we can bring
02:43:47 <linuxmodder> count me in jflory7
02:43:53 <award3535> this event also is on the new budget as well
02:44:01 <award3535> FY17
02:44:16 <jflory7> Or... maybe near definite confirmation. The organizer I know doesn't think there is a limit but he is checking with the sponsor team now for me.
02:44:28 <jflory7> linuxmodder: Would love to have some more hands up here! :)
02:44:33 * MarkDude is willing to bet they know of decauseAirplanes see if that sweetens it up for them (with his blessing of course.)
02:44:46 <jflory7> MarkDude: They definitely know about him.
02:45:00 <jflory7> In fact, I think they were planning on seeing if he could specifically be a mentor, but I don't think they've contacted him
02:45:16 <jflory7> If he happens to already be going, it would be great to have him there as a mentor representing Fedora.
02:45:18 <jflory7> Oh, also!!
02:45:27 <MarkDude> +1 for putting effort into this event. And some other names might be interested. Rock it jflory7 get some more folks
02:45:38 <jflory7> I also was able to confirm that for the $1.2k price, we could be the sponsors of the "open source" category at the event.
02:45:49 <jflory7> So we would have a direct correlation to the open source hacking at the event.
02:45:53 <award3535> what about travel
02:46:06 <jflory7> (Confirmed that there is no limit on number of people we can bring.)
02:46:29 <jflory7> award3535: The Rochester International Airport (ROC) is in the same city as the event. About a 15 minute drive from airport to the campus.
02:46:53 <jflory7> What other info do we need to have for travel? I assume nearby hotels? I can look up hotels and their rates for the week of the event and add it to the wiki.
02:47:12 <award3535> yes, is anyone attending out of area
02:47:24 <jflory7> I am a local, so it's no cost for me to travel
02:47:36 <MarkDude> Asuming we can get locals, but award3535 wants us to figure travel ideas. This event seems worth sending folks relevant and in region. And maybe some Daddy Shadowman love to.
02:47:55 <jflory7> I am not aware of any other locals except for possibly decauseAirplanes, but he is not confirmed
02:48:26 <award3535> mattdm is close a few hours drive away
02:48:27 * MarkDude assumes we could cover $500 for local stuff, trains etc to get idea. decauseAirplanes may have other funding
02:48:31 <linuxmodder> I know a friend on campus  so while out of area  lodging on mine would be  nominal
02:49:13 <MarkDude> Budget would be more, but by assuming at least $500 (with getting specific approvals) you can gauge who can go, and may be able to get more
02:49:28 <jflory7> Oh yeah, I forgot mattdm might be in the area... it would be great to see if this was an event he would be willing or able to go to!
02:49:30 <juggler> hi all...gotta run to my 7p meeting. My ticket # is 392 for a reimbursement request. have a good evening all. I do hope you enjoy my SCaLE 14x report when that shows up on the blog :)
02:49:33 <MarkDude> With these local folks, we may be loking at rooms and gas
02:49:46 <linuxmodder> My expenses would be  about same as Fosscon (less than $75)
02:49:49 <jflory7> juggler: Have a good evening, looking forward to seeing the report published on Monday!!
02:49:52 <jflory7> juggler++
02:50:12 <juggler> be well all!
02:50:13 <MarkDude> Rock on juggler
02:50:48 <award3535> I think we should table this one more week to see if any one else would like to attend and get the proper funding moving
02:51:10 <jflory7> It would be great to have a list of others who might want to attend.
02:51:17 <jflory7> Should they add their info to the wiki?
02:51:31 <jflory7> (assuming they are willing + interested in going)
02:51:35 <MarkDude> Yep, I can wiki advice after meeting
02:51:55 <award3535> either way on the wiki or emailing for you to update as well
02:52:09 <jflory7> I can send an email to the list
02:52:09 * MarkDude agrees with award3535 +1 for event though, looks fun
02:52:17 <linuxmodder> jflory7,  plan to see me there (will add myself to wiki tonight or tomorrow)
02:52:20 <jflory7> Might be easiest for some who couldn't make it to the meeting tonight
02:52:31 <jflory7> linuxmodder: Fantastic, sounds great!!
02:52:38 <award3535> ok moving on...
02:52:40 <award3535> #topic == Open Floor ===
02:52:41 <MarkDude> Do email, and we got this as easier folow up next wek
02:52:52 <linuxmodder> jflory7,  after meeting maybe set up some  MAGIC tour stuff then
02:52:52 <jflory7> #action jflory7 Send announcement to mailing list about BrickHack 2016
02:53:06 <jflory7> linuxmodder: Might be able to see what I can do :)
02:54:52 <linuxmodder> quiet for Open floor ?  that is odd
02:54:57 <jflory7> As for Open Floor, I have nothing else. I will make sure to get on the details for BrickHack
02:54:59 <MarkDude> Reminders, Fedora Magazine is aweome, write for it, its easy
02:55:10 <jflory7> MarkDude: And writing for the CommBlog too. ;)
02:55:22 <MarkDude> The metric are on rise, we have real numbers, real eyeballs
02:55:33 <MarkDude> +1 Community Ops
02:55:52 <jflory7> Anyways, unless someone has something else to bring up, I motion to close the meeting
02:56:00 <MarkDude> Also, be creative folks, what sorta ways can we promote Fedora, to under 30s
02:56:05 <linuxmodder> nothing from me
