20:07 <tsimonq2> #topic bashfulrobot
20:07 <tsimonq2> Hi
20:07 <bashfulrobot> Hello
20:07 <tsimonq2> Please introduce yourself.
20:09 <tsimonq2> bashfulrobot: Hello? :)
20:09 <bashfulrobot> Well, I am Dustin Krysak located in Canada. I have been a member of the Ubuntu Budgie team since Nov-Dec of 2016. I come from an operations background (and a consumer of Linux). I had wanted to get involved with the OSS aspect to become a contributor to somethign I have used for a long time.
20:10 <bashfulrobot> Currently I am also involved in the snacrafters community as well, both in the forum as well as interacting with project maintainers to hopefully introduce or assist with snap packaging.
20:10 <bashfulrobot> In the past I have also volunteered on the release management for the alpha/betas (17.10 +) as well.
20:11 <tsimonq2> OK, cool! Can you please share a link to your wiki and LP page?
20:11 <bashfulrobot> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/bashfulrobot
20:11 <bashfulrobot> https://launchpad.net/~bashfulrobot
20:12 <tsimonq2> Alright, any questions from the board?
20:13 <elacheche> I like the tesimonials  :)
20:13 <elacheche> bashfulrobot: I'd like to know if you're involved with the LoCo?
20:13 <tsimonq2> (or any other comments etc., I saw fossfreedom earlier :) )
20:14 <bashfulrobot> Yes I appreciate everyone who took the time to do so (THANK YOU!)
20:14 <elacheche> It would be great if a contributor like you helps in the LoCo too :D
20:14 <popey> hi bashfulrobot
20:15 <popey> bashfulrobot: tell us a bit about how things are going in Ubuntu Budgie land
20:15 <tsimonq2> ^
20:15 <bashfulrobot> I am not yet involved with the loco, but had reached out the members as it seems to have gone dormant to a degree. Where I have done work locally is with our local linux desktop LUG. I have recently been added as a co-host, but previously had done a talk on Ubuntu Budgie.
20:15 <tsimonq2> Nice!
20:17 <elacheche> Good, the LoCo should not be different from the LUG :) Yes, we have LoCos activity issues :) So contributions to LoCos should be always needed and apreciated :)
20:18 <tsimonq2> Agreed!
20:18 <wxl> bashfulrobot: you're going to be at lfnw this year?
20:18 <tsimonq2> ^^^^
20:18 <bashfulrobot> Well, my perception is that we are slowly growing. As one of the newer flavours, there are always things we can do to help herald that in the right direction. Some of the items can be welcomed challenges (not having a developer background), but very interesting. I like having the exposure the larger Ubuntu ecosystem (and hope to get more involved there). Our LTS application is in progress pending final
20:18 <bashfulrobot> approval by the TB. So we are moving forward nice and steady.
20:18 <tsimonq2> I will be
20:19 <bashfulrobot> As for the Loco - I have been thinking about attempting to merg it in some capacity if applicable.
20:19 <elacheche> :)
20:20 <tsimonq2> Alright, anything else before we vote, everyone?
20:20 <bashfulrobot> wxl: I will be at LFNW this year. I fact tsimonq2 have been discussing doing some planning and working on a few things while we are both there. While not officially part of hte booth plan to offer assistance as well.
20:20 * elacheche is ready to vote :)
20:20 <wxl> bashfulrobot: cool. we should try to coordinate
20:20 <bashfulrobot> if you are there, would love to!
20:20 <popey> bashfulrobot: do you have any big plans for ubuntu budgie, or is it more slow-and-steady?

20:21 <wxl> +1 great work; keep it up!
20:21 <wxl> oops
20:21 <popey> hang on
20:21 <wxl> too jumpy
20:22 * tsimonq2 is waiting on bashfulrobot to answer popey ;)
20:22 <tsimonq2> Oh, should also set this...
20:22 <tsimonq2> #votesrequired 4
20:22 <meetingology> votes now need 4 to be passed
20:24 <tsimonq2> bashfulrobot: hi :)
20:24 <bashfulrobot> Well there is a small consideration with Budgie in the longer term. If you consider upstream has started work on the version 11 of the desktop, there is going to be a lot of work there. Efforts (this is my opinion - Other team members may see it differently) are going to need to ramp up there to get to a sane baseline. And with that come a lot of decisions for the applications, how our community will
20:24 <bashfulrobot> react to the chang from GTK to QT. So while I say slow and steady - that is more of a self-assessment vs. a project assessment. Being rather new to the overall developer related tasks and hte community I have a slight ramp up time. In newer tasks vs someone who has worked withing the larger ecosystem.
20:24 <bashfulrobot> Sorry -was typing
20:25 <bashfulrobot> well spell correcting. :-)
20:25 <tsimonq2> It's all good :)
20:25 <tsimonq2> I think that's fair, thanks
20:25 <popey> :)
20:26 <popey> I'm good.
20:26 <popey> Thanks bashfulrobot
20:26 <bashfulrobot> But with that ramp up time and as I formulate relationships with other contributors - I know there is nothing but improvement (on my part) coming. And hopefully more cross project collab.
