Nice. 18:04:32 Did you have time to do some budget math? Can we include food? 18:04:43 status updates / talks schedule / beds / cantina / food on sunday / badges / frontdesk 18:04:52 (if so, suggested topic ^) 18:04:57 DLange: budget is on the wiki page, food is included 18:05:02 status updates / talks schedule / beds / cantina / food on sunday / badges / frontdesk / budget 18:05:10 topics: status updates / talks schedule / beds / cantina / food on sunday / badges / frontdesk / budget 18:05:46 topics: status updates / talks schedule / beds / cantina / food on sunday / printer / badges / frontdesk / budget 18:05:51 I think there is an email to attendees pending, too 18:06:04 DLange: yes, but i dont see much to discuss 18:06:11 true dat 18:06:18 * h01ger went through the open topics from the wiki to gather the topics 18:06:20 Just to it topic :) 18:06:30 *do it 18:06:41 * h01ger will write those mails, soon, just not today or tomorrow, as i'm travelling 18:06:57 azeem: around? 18:07:05 topics: status updates / talks schedule / beds / cantina / food on sunday / printer / badges / frontdesk / budget / aob 18:07:13 #topic status updates 18:08:09 * h01ger talked to cantina and dock europe last week. they look forward to have us. there will be a nice concert in cantina on friday and other events during the week which i will inform in those mails. (the notes about events are on paper at home) 18:08:44 we still have 5 free beds, IOW, i reclaimed one of the 6 beds given back to dock europe and we should probably have 5 beds still available 18:09:22 we don't need to pay these if we don't use 'em, do we? 18:09:35 ccchh is not usuable (due to renovation), i dont have much hope it will be ready in 10 days 18:09:47 DLange: no 18:10:00 that's good. And CCCHH :/ 18:10:53 * h01ger doesnt have more updates 18:11:49 * h01ger has a shopping list for video team and for badges (i have like 50 at home and need to buy 10 more or so) 18:12:47 with 65 registrations now i'm also getting slightly concerned whether we'll have enough tshirts. we need at least 10 more for sponsors, 3 for external video helpers, one or 2 for debian.fr, and probably 10 for cantina and dock europe.. 18:13:02 but i think we have enough shirts 18:13:07 #topic talks and schedule 18:13:19 azeem: petn-randall 18:13:45 I guess for that we need ^ who are not around 18:14:12 petn-randall waved 10min ago 18:14:48 hi 18:14:52 yep, here 18:14:55 hey azeem 18:14:58 magic 18:15:14 cfp deadline was two days ago, so azeem and I should sit together an make a schedule. 18:15:25 how many submissions? 18:15:30 15ish 18:15:42 I could also do one tomorrow during the day and go over it with azeem in the evening. 18:16:09 nice 18:16:14 (15ish) 18:16:37 probably we can just accept them all, but we need to ask about 20 vs. 45 and saturday and/or sunday availability for the scheudle 18:16:40 schedule* 18:16:56 indeed 18:17:13 and reconfirm with the speakers 18:17:40 that too 18:17:41 petn-randall: so let's have a quick chat afterwards, or do we just agree to accept all submissions? 18:17:59 I can do more of the work than last year as I have less other business this week. 18:18:04 I'd say accept all that are sufficiently on topic 18:18:15 we had 15 talks last year 18:18:16 reconfirmation is kinda important to have first, more than a published schedule 18:18:19 and just turned down one 18:18:22 so about same 18:18:30 h01ger: yeah 18:18:33 I'm not 100% how much we have, so I'd do a schedule before accepting. But I'm guessing we have enough slots. 18:18:56 * h01ger nods 18:19:01 (or rather count them) 18:19:16 (i also want to announce the schedule on the fux and ccchh mailinglists) 18:19:22 maybe we can just mail them with "thank you for submitting, please let us know whether the talk should be 20 or 45 minutes and whether you cannot do either Saturday or Sunday" 18:19:31 azeem: sounds good to me 18:19:42 but I think we can just accept them and go with it 18:19:57 cool, cool. next topic? 18:20:11 we had 4 20 minute talks last year 18:20:20 yeah 18:20:27 you have lightning talks on your agenda too? 18:20:33 sure 18:20:40 i will include info about lightning talks in my mail to the attendees 18:20:48 #topic beds 18:20:55 there are still 5 beds available 18:21:10 nothing else to say from me 18:21:15 #info there are still 5 beds available 18:21:22 do we need to pay for them if they are not filled? 18:21:26 no 18:21:31 ok, cool 18:21:42 yep, D E is pretty nice 18:21:51 #topic cantina & food on sunday 18:22:03 food times are now in the wiki, currently still under open tasks 18:22:14 cantina cannot provide us with lunch and dinner on sunday 18:22:25 (they have a wedding with 130 people or so) 18:22:34 lunch: Pizza order? 18:22:35 will that impact the venue otherwise? 18:22:46 for sunday evening i have a plan (which i still need to finalize), which is going out to a nearby restaurant 18:22:49 azeem: no 18:22:56 (we'd need that pre-warned to a supplier) 18:23:22 for lunch i indeed am thinking about pizza, because thats easy and doesnt take ages, though i still wonder if there is a nicer food option. but probably pizza 18:23:37 Pizza is nice 18:23:38 the other thing might be sandwiches or so 18:23:44 wraps 18:24:11 does it make sense to have a longer lunch break and let people eat outside? There's not so much around I think? 18:24:41 azeem: there are quite some place in 10m walking distance, but i think that would need a 2h lunch break at leats 18:24:43 least 18:25:07 probably a bit redundant if we go out Sunday evening anyways 18:25:16 * h01ger edits open tasks 18:26:20 I think cantina is great, but I wouldn't have a problem with not providing lunch 18:26:21 except that i cannot edit the wiki page 18:27:09 wiki open tasks: add "saturday lunch: pizza, wraps, form food team" 18:27:14 is in my todo now.. 18:27:43 next? 18:28:35 #topic printer 18:29:27 i believe having a printer in 10m distance is okish. petn-randall will pre-print nametags and else we need some info signs, which we can prepare on wedneday and then either put up later on wednesday or thursday 18:29:44 yep 18:29:50 do you think we really need a printer? i dont want to bring mine and buying a cheapo just for 5 days seems silly 18:30:32 can't we use one at DE or CCC (despite them renovating) if in a pinch? 18:30:49 CCC is down 18:30:52 or borrow one from CCC and carry it over? 18:30:59 CCC is down 18:31:22 DE might be an option. björn will be in the house and happy to help. so printer solved. 18:31:32 #topic badges 18:31:38 petn-randall: anything to add? :) 18:32:02 * h01ger has checked he has pouches and lanyards etc 18:36:08 [20:29] < petn-randall> yep 18:36:17 #topic frontdesk 18:36:29 we probably should have one 18:36:40 fux has a new entrance, on the 'mainstreet' 18:37:00 where a bunch of tables and benches are, mostly used for eating outside of cantina 18:37:03 put directions into your welcome email please 18:37:09 there's wifi and power should be doable 18:37:24 DLange: already noted in my list of future wiki edits :) 18:37:30 awesome 18:37:31 all fine by me 18:37:55 the new entrance will make initial navigation in the house much easier. not only 'initial'... 18:39:15 ok.. 18:39:20 #topic budget 18:39:42 https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEvents/de/2019/MiniDebConfHamburg/Budget is up2date modulo small costs like for buying gaffa and batteries 18:40:17 the unclear factor is how many people will eat food 18:40:30 probably all that are there? 18:40:33 based on last year we will probably need 3k€ for food 18:40:46 DLange: no, some people go out. like 10% 18:41:10 interesting but o.k. 18:41:11 but we don't need to tell cantina fixed numbers in advance? 18:41:15 just ballpark? 18:41:20 and then people say they arrive on the 5th and leave on the 10th, but this can mean they only eat from 6th to 9th 18:41:39 azeem: as the wiki page says, the ballpark is 3k 18:42:13 like last year, cantina will make a 'strichliste' (people only have to pay for their drinks themselves, water is free), and we will get numbers at the end of each day 18:42:24 good, good 18:42:39 i think worst case we'll have a loss of 500-1000e and we need to ask the dpl for this money.. 18:42:55 or i will have to do dishwashing in cantina for 2 months or so ;) 18:43:19 good that you are local :D 18:43:25 :) 18:43:49 * h01ger thinks the budget is fine and the risk managable 18:44:02 next? 18:44:34 yeah 18:44:41 #topic aob 18:45:26 does the video team need borrowed PCs or so as they do for big DebConfs? 18:45:33 (and if so is that covered?) 18:46:12 * h01ger has no idea but hasnt seen such request 18:46:20 so i think they are fine 18:47:58 hm, assuming and our video team is a dangerous combination :) 18:48:17 olasd: ^ may be you can confirm sometime that we're safe? 18:49:30 103kg video equipment are being shipped to me, just got an email from olasd, so i'm fairly sure we are save 18:52:03 I agree that assuming you're getting an answer right after dunking on people is a precarious situation to be in :p 18:52:52 but yes, we're shipping all the computer-like equipment that we need 18:53:06 great, thank you for confirming 18:53:56 anything else? 18:54:16 #topic next meeting 18:54:26 wednesday, 1337 in cantina?:) 18:54:32 next wednesday 18:54:41 sounds good! 18:54:51 #agreed next meeting in cantina 18:54:58 so we are done \o/ 18:55:00 will it be IRL? 18:55:02 thank you all 18:55:03 cool 18:55:05 or irc as well 18:55:08 azeem: yes 18:55:09 ok 18:55:25 I'll be there Tuesday evening, so I'm also available for helping out with some stuff the night before. 18:55:42 (if there's anything) 18:55:44 the only thing that would be useful to us and that we don't ship (because we've run out) is gaffer/cloth tape to secure cable runs to the ground 18:56:01 * h01ger nods 18:56:08 * h01ger waves 18:56:11 #endmeeting
