2. Greetings from the Leader
●
It is intended for this meeting to last 30 minutes or
less
●
We have a few business items to be covered at this
time
●
Please follow along with the discussion in the IRC
channel as we work through these slides
●
Not everything will be covered in the slides alone...
3. Item #1 – Appointment of Deputy
●
Due to aggravated circumstances the Leader cannot
current sign the table contract for Ohio Linux Fest
– This primarily relates to complying with government
mandates existing in the Leader's personal life
– It remains the Leader's intent to be present at the event if at
all possible
●
It is necessary to seek a volunteer who will be
attending Ohio Linux Fest 2013 who can sign
the contract for the LoCo in this instance
4. Item #2 – Further Explanation of
Membership Shepherding Program
●
Ubuntu “Membership” is a signal mark that
shows continuing participation in the community
●
Certain benefits also accrue with that, including
the ability to vote on the confirmation of
nominees to the Community Council
●
The number of members of that group on
Launchpad seems to show a decline again
5. Item #2 – Further Explanation of
Membership Shepherding Program
●
We need to increase participation in Ohio
●
Growing the number of folks holding Ubuntu
“Membership” would allow us to have a core cadre of folks
who would be able to lead and provide examples to others
●
Once we have a comfortably higher number of folks
holding Ubuntu “Membership” it will then become
appropriate for elections to the Council to take place
6. Item #2 – Further Explanation of
Membership Shepherding Program
●
An extemely early wiki page for people to
indicate their wish to participate in this effort
can be found here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OhioTeam/Shepherding
●
Mentors within the community are desired,
where possible.
7. Item #3 – Mailing List/Forum/IRC
Communications Effectiveness
●
Which shall we use?
●
Which works best?
●
How shall we determine which to use?
9. Item #5 – Fix The Date For Next
Meeting
●
Prefer to meet before the next virtual Ubuntu
Developer summit which would mean July or
early August
●
Also need to get in touch with the LoCo Council
about when the “Verified Team” status regime
takes effect. We may have to have a meeting
concerning that at that time. Who can deputize
for that?
10. Item #6 – Educational Session:
Potpourri
●
Severe Weather Resources
●
FEMA Emergency Management Institute's “A
Citizens Guide to Disaster Assistance”
●
Ohio Resources For Help

NOAA Weather Radio
