17:06:14 <stoney> sure
17:06:46 <paxnovem> sure
17:06:51 <heidi> The bot appears to be working and J*nie sent me the notes from last time.
17:06:59 <heidi> I just haven't had a chance to put them up yet.
17:07:03 <heidi> #topic Updates
17:07:22 <stoney> cool
17:07:25 <heidi> paxnovem: would you like to start with the updates as you have clearly been making progress?
17:07:46 <paxnovem> Sure
17:08:16 <heidi> Please use the #info before your comments.
17:08:21 <heidi> So that they'll go in the notes :-)
17:09:39 <paxnovem> #info I have been working on creating bootable persistent usb's for the code sprint
17:10:17 <heidi> #info A bootable USB for Mousetrap
17:10:45 <heidi> And how far have you gotten? Perhaps summarize the email that you sent.
17:11:42 <paxnovem> #info I have been able to get a script to work on fedora that achieves this and have started writing the wiki directions
17:12:19 <heidi> Good!
17:12:20 <paxnovem> #info the method that the fedora project recommends doesn't work because of a bug specifically for fedora 18
17:12:36 <heidi> Good to know.
17:12:58 <stoney> (heidi, when you get a chance: for the sprint, are we looking at Fridays, weekdays, or any days?)
17:13:34 <heidi> (Stoney, I was thinking Fridays, but that might put it off until February as we're at the OpenFE meeting.)
17:14:00 <stoney> (almost... there is the 31st :) )
17:14:09 <heidi> stoney: The 31st works. :-)
17:14:20 <heidi> paxnovem: Do you need some USB drives to test with?
17:14:24 <heidi> And what size?
17:14:57 <paxnovem> I have one 16 gig that I have been using to test
17:15:06 <heidi> How big is the image?
17:15:17 <heidi> Does it take the entire drive?
17:16:50 <paxnovem> Fedora requires about three gigs to install, but you also have to set aside space for persistent settings. How much space do you want the usb's to have?
17:17:12 <heidi> I think I've got some 8GB hanging around.
17:17:13 <paxnovem> The max is about 4 gigs due to limitations of fat32
17:17:29 <heidi> Just trying to get an idea of size for the hackathon.
17:17:35 <stoney> cool
17:17:42 <paxnovem> the above is for persistent space, the drive can be bigger
17:17:58 <heidi> Right, OK>
17:18:08 <heidi> And what do you need to go forward?
17:21:41 <heidi> paxnovem: What do you need to go forward?
17:22:03 <paxnovem> Well, I am going to use my dad's Mac to test if the usb works on that platform. I am also worried about different brands of flash drives since they sometimes have hidden partitions that can mess things up? I have been using pny so far
17:22:03 <heidi> paxnovem: Let us know when you get a version ready for testing and we can do so.
17:22:24 <heidi> Ah, OK. I've got a couple of different ones in my office we can try.
17:22:40 <heidi> Keep us posted!
17:22:54 <heidi> Given our time constraints,lets see if someone else has anything.
17:22:58 <heidi> kevin-brown: Anything to report?
17:23:20 <stoney> (FYI: sending "pole" to mousetrap-list@gnome.org)
17:23:34 <kevin-brown> Sadly, no.  I am planning on jumping back into the project this weekend
17:23:47 <heidi> That's fine. Just checking.
17:24:04 <heidi> I've been heads down in Christmas preparations myself.
17:24:13 <heidi> stoney:  Anything new from you?
17:24:44 <stoney> nothing new from me... I've been in the conversation with paxnovem regarding the USBs
17:24:52 <stoney> except...
17:24:59 <stoney> I guess I should announce it here
17:25:13 <heidi> ?
17:25:14 <stoney> #info I'm messing up the sprint that was scheduled for 1/17
17:25:22 <heidi> Ah, no fuss.
17:25:36 <stoney> #info watch for a doodle pole through mousetrap-list@gnome.org
17:26:03 <stoney> #info we'll shoot for 1/31 for the next development sprint
17:26:08 <stoney> there :)
17:26:27 <heidi> Good!
17:26:41 <heidi> Does anyone need anything to go forwards?
17:27:35 <paxnovem> Once done with the usb wiki, should I look at VM's?
17:27:46 <heidi> Yes, please.
17:27:57 <heidi> Would be good to know if that was possible.
17:28:26 <paxnovem> ok, I will get on that
17:28:41 <stoney> I've create the pole ... i'll send it out when I get back from the vet
17:28:44 <heidi> Does anyone have anything else?
17:29:07 <stoney> i'm set
17:29:31 <paxnovem> i'm good
17:29:41 <stoney> next meeting is.... ?
17:29:45 <heidi> Let's not meet next week and plan to meet on Jan. 3rd.
17:29:47 <heidi> :-)
17:29:51 <stoney> :)
17:29:57 <stoney> perfect
17:30:15 <heidi> Great, thank you all for coming!
