This has come up before; once by myself. The thought at the time, and I was in agreement with, is that the group was still to small and fragmentation would lead to a draw on the momentum\resources. Kinda funny looking back now because that continues to be a problem even with 50+? members.
Maybe we could operate smaller city/provincial groups under the Ubuntu-ca umbrella? We could then operate within our smaller groups for local events and band together under the Ubuntu-ca banner for larger events\issues\projects.

Corey is from BC, BTW. If you look at the Canadian team members listing, they're pretty much across Canada.

You are right Andrew. I agree with having smaller city wide groups
rather than across a whole continent though a lot can be done by email and videoconferencing also. Came to know about the following URLs courtesy Fabian ubuntutoronto.org and http://mces.blogspot.com/2005/09/torontonians-we-need-your-help.html Maybe these will be put in the ca mailing list page also or as a footer in the mails from the mailing list.

UBZ being in Montreal had nothing to do with the LoCo. We learned about it at the same time than anybody else in Ubuntu-land. The LoCo wasn't involved in the planning or organization of that conference. > I am pretty active and I believe you are too, Corey - we're far from > alone. ;) I see at least another Canadian (Hubert I'd like to propose > you add our listing to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommunityCouncilAgenda > (Locoteams section). Yeah, we're active ;) Nobody question individual users being active, or some groups based in Canada of being active. But the LoCo Canadian team, as a team, currently isn't active and and doesn't function as a team, doing team activities, and providing active team resources. i'm not pointing fingers here at anyone or at anything, but I think it's a fact that we can all see by looking at the LoCo team activities in recent weeks, which are near none. We'll be able to add yourselves to the LoCoTeams listings the day we are an active and functional LoCo team. I suspect it will pretty obvious to us and to outside observers when we reach that level. But in my opinion we are not there today. It is also my opinion that we are probably not that far off: the base is there and we only need to gather some momentum and focus our energies on some well defined activities/community resources to get us on our way. -- Daniel Robitaille -- ubuntu-ca mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-ca |
