Other FSM talk

quick retrospective on recent worshop:

  • what worked well, didn't work so well
  • Ben M: more focused tutorials... eg Packaging a Ubuntu app demo... then leading into packaging an app and the mentors then just need to 'iron out problems' rather than start from scratch.
  • Ben M: then we could have 3 or 4 seperate small tutorials
  • Internet speeds

Committe meeting dates for rest of year

    • Dec - dinner 17th - ctte 24th nov

Meet-up topics for October and November

  • TODO: Ben S to try to rememer who he spoke to

Propose a far-future month for workshop #2

  • Saturday 19 March

Renaming Meetup.com group to share with Sydney?

  • That's silly. They need to be their own thing. Ideally yes, but I'm already paying > $100 per year for it, so there might be cost savings in sharing.
  • Not sure how well it deals with mixing distant locations though.
  • They would be able to run under the free of charge tier for a while I suppose.
  • Also meetup suggests meetups based on location .. so the benefit for them is limited

blog post

  • Dobbing Scott in for post FSM workshop blog post based on email he sent to mailing list :)
  • Join the queue

Put minutes up on wiki

  • Ben M.
