I can't remember if that was last year, my imagination or this year :) 18:12:49 what kind of gear are we talking about? 18:13:03 Depends what people want to hack on I guess... 18:13:11 the people from the hackerspace that's hosting the minidebconf offered to give us a key to their serverroom to store equipment 18:14:22 I think tumbleweed and olasd visited that location last year, so they can comment on it (if necessary) 18:15:01 #info the people from the hackerspace that's hosting the minidebconf offered to give us a key to their serverroom to store equipment 18:15:14 also, getting some of the equipment from Paris (if someone wants to work on that), means that someone will have to bring that equipment from Paris to Brussels 18:15:42 paddatrapper: that's https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2019/11/msg00228.html 18:15:47 it would be good to get some help to setup a machine to be used at MiniDebConf Brazil 18:15:53 I wouldn't haul gear to HSBXL, it's on the whateverth floor with no lifts 18:16:29 (hi) 18:16:52 olasd: the driver of the car (whoever that would be) doesn't have to be the person carrying gear up the stairs... 18:16:57 I would also like to spend some time getting infrastructure set up so I can know what I am doing for SotM next year 18:17:20 ivodd: you say that... 18:17:34 olasd: "car is downstairs, here is they key" 18:17:40 (but I don't know if there's parking) 18:18:26 we didn't have any issues parking in the neighborhood last year (and I'm sure we can arrange getting a car closer to the entrance if we do so in advance) 18:19:34 olasd: the movie on their homepage shows a lift, btw 18:19:42 maybe it works now 18:19:51 but for this meeting, there's a few questions we need to answer: 18:19:52 paddatrapper, about you said before, i think it was pollo who talked with linuxbe.com training center 18:19:57 - do we want to do a sprint 18:20:12 - is the venue of the minidebcamp ok for that (and if not, who will look for an alternative) 18:20:30 - what gear do we want to have their, and how can we make that work (this could be decided later on) 18:20:45 - who would come to a sprint 18:21:11 I personally think it would be silly to get together at a different venue 18:21:22 I agree 18:21:39 So I think we sound do a sprint 18:22:04 who would attend such a sprint 18:22:11 I agree the minidebcamp venue should be prefererd if possible 18:22:16 (I already said on the minidebcamp wiki page that I intend to attent) 18:22:21 attend 18:22:30 I'd likely attend 18:22:33 I would, work allowing 18:22:38 me too 18:22:55 if I can, yeah 18:23:52 #agreed a FOSDEM sprint is a good idea, preferably at the minidebcamp venue 18:25:08 We can sort out details later on 18:25:18 Should we do a wiki page like last year? https://wiki.debian.org/Sprints/2019/DebConf%20Video%20team%20sprint%20@%20FOSDEM%202019 18:25:45 yes, I am happy to create it now now 18:26:00 please avoid spaces in the page name :P 18:26:05 yes :-) 18:26:08 #action paddatrapper to create sprint wiki page 18:26:36 also, make sure people register on the minidebcamp wiki page, to make sure there is a good idea of the total number of people on site 18:27:17 good point, I'll like there 18:27:36 link too 18:27:47 #topic Status of purchases decided on 2019-08-27 18:27:54 *crickets* 18:28:16 heh 18:28:27 yeah 18:28:58 #info purchases haven't happened yet 18:29:05 (sorry had to put out fires and melting servers) 18:29:38 #topic Maceió (Brazil) mini-DebConf 18:29:57 MiniDebConf Maceió 2020 will take place in march 27-28 18:30:55 #info MiniDebConf Maceió 2020 will take place in march 27-28 18:31:00 cool 18:31:02 https://wiki.debian.org/Brasil/Eventos/MiniDebConfMaceio2020 18:31:19 we would like streaming and record the talks, but we will need to learn how to setup the machine and deal with cameras 18:31:48 if someone from video team can come, it will be great 18:32:06 one or more people, sure 18:33:56 phls: is there a minidebcamp before the conf (eg thu-fri)? 18:33:58 #info it would be nice to have one or more video team there to help with streaming and recording the talks 18:33:59 probably you remember we have here 1 hdmi cad, 1 Opsis board and 1 the small board (i forget the name) 18:34:18 Turbot 18:34:29 phls: do you have a blackmagic card? 18:34:32 yes 18:34:54 ivodd, officially we haven't schedulle debcamp yet 18:35:23 so, 1 blackmagic card + 1 Opsis + 1 Turbot 18:36:31 the biggest issue is the SDI camera 18:37:26 Those should be hirable through a local company? 18:37:29 if it's only 1 or 2 cameras, it might be cheaper to rent them locally than to do the carnet paperwork to get them from paris 18:38:24 I can looking for the cameras here 18:38:35 phls: can you gather all the information and the open questions somewhere, so that this can be tracked? 18:38:57 we probably won't get much further now (I don't think people will decide in the next 5 minutes whether they are coming or not) 18:39:01 ivodd, yes, sure.
