!madlug meeting tomorrow night 7pm. directions (as always) at http://madisonlinux.org/Meetings
Tuesday, 19-May-09 02:08:13 UTC from xmpp-
@daw too bad !madlug mtg was cancelled. i was hoping u guys could figure out how to do url shortening in pidgin. oh well...
-
@telecomtom technically, it's rescheduled, but it's not for 2 months, so I figured cancel was an appropriate word.
-
@telecomtom perhaps you could get the FLOSS Weekly to cover some of the open cable stuff: http://is.gd/HLGO (google spreadsheet of ideas)
-
@daw floss weekly is good idea 4 raising awareness of open networks. we need to prepare majorly. let's discuss at drupalcamp.
-
@telecomtom I'll be in NC during DrupalCamp. they'd just want a name of an industry leader. I don't know enough about it to suggest
-
@daw ok. i can find someone who's considered an authority in open networks. well maybe....
-
@telecomtom I'll look too. I like working with people that are passionate
-
@telecomtom he might, I just started following him. I love these federated sites!
-
@telecomtom what about someone from http://www.vyatta.com/ ? Would that be a good suggestion?
-
@daw floss on routers like vyatta is good but we also need to open the access networks (Last MIle) to use by non-incumbent operators.
-
@daw spirit of openness in Telecom Competition Act of 1996 was crushed by incumbents like ATT, Bells, cables. need competition in Last Mile.
-
@telecomtom wonder if for FLOSS Weekly if Vyatta might be better. they aren't OE but *software* even though they do some open hardware stuff
-
@daw the keyword is "open backhaul": how to go from ur house to the core networks as openly as you go to the highways from ur garage.
-
@telecomtom I get it. just saying FLOSS Weekly has a focus and for our suggestion to be taken seriously, we should keep that focus in mind
-
@daw ok i can focus 4 awhile on SW. but beware, network elements are web services (your new friend!). more on this l8r...
-
@daw see http://tinyurl.com/mvpwpd : "manipulate network resources as though they were software objects." On Internet HW & SW are the same.
-
@telecomtom had set Sept/Oct as the bi-mothly !oemad event you'd take care of, but if we are doing big event on 9/26, does that make sense?
-
@telecomtom you can see proposed schedule at http://openeverything.wik.is/index.php?title=Madison%2C_WI/Bi-Monthly_Meetups !madison
-

-
@daw regarding !oemad sep/oct meet: what did i sign up for? being moderator at a session? was it on open networks or drupalwsrp?

@telecomtom just saw your question. The leaders of the meetings are in-charge however the construe that; time, place, topic, etc.
-
@telecomtom I had posted the timeline on the list a while back. @kaitfoley is in charge of the next one on Social Translation
-
@telecomtom why on earth were you up at 6:15 on a Sunday?????
-
@daw refresh my memory regarding !oemad: we have the same setup as last month, where there are multiple sessions during each hour, right?
-
