Can we see any layout, yet? 18:04:00 not just internal room layout 18:04:00 we do know. about the layout we'd need to design it, tho we can send pictures 18:04:05 but also which rooms we're using 18:04:08 where they are in relation to each other 18:04:14 how long they're booked for 18:04:14 etc. 18:04:20 there is a map which I can share 18:04:29 please! 18:04:47 I need some minutes 18:05:13 doesn't have to be *now* 18:05:24 Have we selected caterers yet? Do we know where we're serving food? 18:05:27 you can just take an action to do that after the meeting 18:05:29 okay 18:05:36 pwaring will dish out the actions :) 18:05:51 yes we do 18:05:59 #action EnkelenaH[m] to share map of room layouts 18:06:14 there is a restaurant inside ITP, which is going to work just for us. They don;t work on other times 18:06:27 you will se that on the map 18:06:31 nice 18:06:50 and they're catering to most of the special dietary requests we have? 18:07:56 generally yes - vegetarian, vegan, but we need to be specific with them again 18:08:12 so something to discuss again 18:08:43 often our caterers can't handle *all* the needs and we have to outsource some of them elsewher 18:08:59 of course 18:08:59 (or tell attendees that we can't provide e.g. nut-allergy free food) 18:09:38 we'll take care of that, and see the final options 18:09:53 +1 18:10:07 I think the next area I have questions for is swag 18:10:19 When are you wanting to start printing shirts? We're going to need designs etc. 18:10:48 have we found a local printer and shirt supplier yet? 18:10:52 We have contacted the designers, they would be working on it soon. We hae contacted the printing house and got their offer 18:11:03 and we picked the t-shirts :P 18:11:32 What's our deadline? 18:11:38 When do we need to decide on quantities? 18:12:02 2 weeks before the conference is the hard deadline 18:12:23 OK 18:12:25 #info 2 weeks before conference is the hard deadline for t-shirts 18:12:37 I assume you'll also need to print some banners and other marketig material 18:13:11 yeah, we asked the designers to design those 18:13:16 The only remaning area for me is A/V and Network 18:13:17 and printing is easy 18:13:39 As soon as you've made some headway there, someone from the video team should have a meeting with the providers 18:14:59 Are there any other ares that anyone wants progress reports on? 18:14:59 EnkelenaH[m]: make sure the designers get last minute sponsor-additions, i.e. they are aware that the current list of logos is not the final list 18:15:36 I think we can manage editing by ourselves in such case 18:15:53 we kinda want the general colors and designs, so something more creative 18:16:30 yeah, that's most of what you need designers for. But someone needs to do the final edit too 18:16:45 is that everything on in-person planning? 18:17:56 #topic Bursary status 18:17:56 I have some 18:18:00 nevermind :) 18:18:08 it's not important 18:18:23 no we want to know :) 18:18:29 *now 18:18:39 we still have AOB :) 18:18:46 yeah it can go on AOB 18:18:49 I think the bursary amounts have changed with approval from the DPL? 18:18:54 since the last meeting 18:20:07 phls (IRC): 18:20:13 yes, and more bursaries were offered 18:20:19 the deadline for acceptance was yesterday 18:20:44 https://debconf22.debconf.org/register/statistics/ 18:20:51 I see 8 travel bursaries have expired 18:21:35 one wrote in she is late due to extenal circumstances 18:22:10 the other 7 can probably be re-allocated 18:22:23 phls and utkarsh2102 would know 18:22:28 that should probably happen ASAP :) 18:24:26 let's continue? 18:24:32 +1 18:24:40 #topic Meeting schedule 18:24:59 #info Next meetings are 13th June and 27th June (18:00 UTC) 18:25:05 Is it time for weekly meetings? 18:25:13 i guess it is... 18:25:15 we're down to the last month and a half 18:26:31 everyone ok with weekly meetings? 18:26:49 at this point I think that's necessary 18:27:25 #agreed Meetings to be weekly from now on 18:27:38 #info Next meetings are 6th June and 13th June (18:00 UTC) 18:27:49 #topic AOB 18:28:17 I saw IPT has a sports center; do we get to use it? what's in it? 18:28:58 nattie also wants to know what laundry facilities there are at the venue 18:28:59 one year ago they said yes, but let's reconfirm 18:29:40 its a normal empty spotrs hall where one ca play 18:30:08 #action EnkelenaH[m] to confirm whether sports centre is available for use during the conf 18:30:17 tumbleweed (IRC): not now, but ITP said they will think about bringing some from outside. But now there is none 18:30:39 and there is also a running trail outside and a voleyball field I think 18:30:45 bringing laundry machines? 18:30:54 tumbleweed (IRC): yes 18:30:55 that'd be nice :) 18:31:21 EnkelenaH[m]: check if there is mat space (for e.g. martial arts) 18:31:37 maybe we can put a Debian Fight Club :) 18:31:48 terceiro (IRC): I could not see such a thing, and those are not too famous here :P 18:31:50 terceiro, are you going to take your kimono? 18:31:56 please/thanks 18:32:06 lenharo: maybe, if it would be useful 18:32:24 :) 18:32:33 our visa process is a bit late but I think will be completed successfully. I recommend we advise people to book (or at least people you deem reliable) so we save a bit on ticket costs. 18:33:20 is there anything else we need to discuss? 18:35:08 propably no... 18:35:34 just please ping us from time to time, and also in the meetings if you think we are forgeting something important 18:35:45 okay, thank you all for coming and see you in 1 week! 18:35:47 #endmeeting
