General Agenda Items and Proposals

PLEASE COME TO THE MEETINGS PREPARED.

This means:

1. If there is an issue for the team, add it to the agenda.
2. Agenda items then should be discussed "informally" on #ubuntufourms-beginners. 90 % of the discussion should have taken place before the meeting. The channel should be enjoyable for everyone, but keep in mind the purpose of the channel is to discuss team functions.
3. Ideally, meetings then are for decision making, team votes. Read the agenda and discuss your thoughts before the meeting. 10 % (or less) of the discussion should happen during the meeting.
4. Agenda items that require more then 5 minutes of discussion may need to be deferred.

Agenda discussion

• I think that holding our team meetings in #ubuntu-meeting (schedule permitting) could bring about a more official atmosphere to the meetings, as well as help to integrate the team better with the rest of the community. This also leaves our main channel open for side discussions, as well as users to have idle chit chat the tends to creep in during the meetings. -- rocket2dmn 2009-03-07 23:09:07

• We currently have a main Google Calendar for the BeginnersTeam, as well as several other calendars for the various Focus Groups. I think it would be very beneficial to the team to merge all of the Focus Group calendars into the main team calendar. This would make it easy for all team members to keep track of the various Focus Group events. In order to make this work, all Focus Group leaders would need to create a Google account and be given write access to the team calendar. The different Focus Groups also have their own mailing lists. Since none of these lists are high volume lists, I think it would be beneficial to merge them into the main BeginnersTeam mailing list. This would be very easy to do. Launchpad allows teams to disable the mailing lists. By doing this, all BeginnersTeam members would be able to stay up-to-date with the activities of the various Focus Groups. -- nhandler 2009-03-08 17:25:54

New Member Nominations

This section is for nomination for membership. Padawan will be nominated here at the discretion of masters and voted by team members at the next meeting. If you are nominated please try to attend the meeting. If you are unable to attend please notify bodhi.zazen (or at least the person that nominated you, who will then pass it on).

Focus Group Meetings

To shorten the monthly team meetings, setup meetings for each Focus Group:

Can people please put meeting times in UTC (GMT isn't the same!) at least, as we are all in different time-zones
