I mean, we can decide on the mask policy a week before the event. 18:17:54 <DLange> We know more by then... 18:18:52 <highvoltage> I think it would affect whether some people would want to come or not, so it might be prudent to have at least some heads-up about potential upcoming covid policy (which is common sense... but...) 18:19:24 <EnkelenaH[m]> <tzafrir " (masks, tests, quarantine rooms"> As of now, masks are obligatory in closed area, but its not needed to be ffp2. I think regarding these rules we of course need to be aligned with government regultions. We will provide quarantine rooms and food during quarantine. We will provide antigen rapid tests at a specific number, but not at a high scale, only if people ask for it. 18:20:12 * EnkelenaH[m] < https://matrix.debian.social/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.debian.social/uqQkwhaDeYemwwdUYmBVUolU/message.txt > 18:20:24 * EnkelenaH[m] < https://matrix.debian.social/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.debian.social/SGTsIxLTFjKOrxCCsrfPMhTi/message.txt > 18:20:48 <tumbleweed> DLange: fair enough re masks (especially likely loosening restrictions) 18:20:51 <terceiro> EnkelenaH[m]: replying does not really work on the IRC side 18:20:59 <terceiro> please repeat it here 18:21:00 <EnkelenaH[m]> https://wafertest.debconf.org/about/covid19/ 18:21:08 <EnkelenaH[m]> <terceiro "EnkelenaH: replying does not rea"> yes I copied it 18:21:36 <terceiro> EnkelenaH[m]: also doesn't work, it gets to the IRC side like this: 18:21:44 <terceiro> * EnkelenaH[m] < https://matrix.debian.social/_matrix/media/r0/download/matrix.debian.social/SGTsIxLTFjKOrxCCsrfPMhTi/message.txt > 18:21:55 <terceiro> type shorter messages :) 18:22:08 <tzafrir> (and also to the logs of this meeting) 18:22:12 <EnkelenaH[m]> Ok let me try 18:22:14 <terceiro> I did read the link, but the contents will be missing frmo the logs 18:22:42 <EnkelenaH[m]> https://wafertest.debconf.org/about/covid19/ I think the general restrictions here are pretty clear. 18:22:50 <EnkelenaH[m]> So let us say that - people with a medical condition who did not get vaccinated can participate if they will provide us with a negative test every 48 hours, and provide us with papers regarding their medical condition. 18:22:57 <EnkelenaH[m]> -People who have no reason to not be vaccinated will not be allowed to attend. 18:23:03 <EnkelenaH[m]> (This is completely aligned with government requirements) 18:23:51 <terceiro> I agree 18:24:21 <terceiro> and people who register and say they didn't get vaccinated need to be told about that now 18:24:30 <tumbleweed> OK, then we need someone to take an action to write this as a conference COVID-19 policy 18:24:41 <tumbleweed> and I'll take an action to update the registration to point to this page 18:25:08 <tzafrir> It's already in the registration form, right? 18:25:08 <EnkelenaH[m]> <tumbleweed "OK, then we need someone to take"> Just update the https://wafertest.debconf.org/about/covid19/ with this policy? 18:25:53 <tzafrir> https://debconf22.debconf.org/register/step-3 18:26:11 <tumbleweed> tzafrir: the registration form asks a question but it doesn't tell you the consequences 18:26:24 <tumbleweed> and doesn't link to any policy 18:26:28 <tumbleweed> EnkelenaH[m]: sounds good 18:27:08 <terceiro> EnkelenaH[m]: under "General Restrictions", there are 4 items 18:27:21 <terceiro> does one need one of those, or all of them? it's not explicit 18:27:42 <tumbleweed> terceiro: one of them 18:27:56 <EnkelenaH[m]> <terceiro "EnkelenaH: under "General Restri"> one 18:28:30 <terceiro> tumbleweed: then it needs to change, we are just decided to require vaccination unless except for medical conditions? 18:29:10 <EnkelenaH[m]> You want us to clarify the "one"? 18:29:11 <terceiro> i.e. item 4 "Evidence that the person has recovered from COVID-19 in the last 90 days (positive RT-PCR test issued in the last 21–90 days)." includes the unvaccinated 18:29:18 <tumbleweed> terceiro: yes. It can also list the requirements for entering the country. 18:29:25 <tumbleweed> but it should say what the conference's policy is 18:29:49 <DLange> terceiro: you cannot have a vaccination if you have recently recovered. There is a grace period. 18:30:23 <terceiro> but if you recently recovered by July, it's because you didn't get a vaccine in the 1.5 years before that 18:30:43 <terceiro> I mean if you can't get a vaccine *because* you recently recovered 18:30:53 <DLange> Well, immunity is immunity, not? Why would we prefer Pfizer-made antibodies over the ones created by a real infection. 18:31:10 <highvoltage> at least if you recently recovered you should have a good amount of anti-bodies for a while 18:31:43 <EnkelenaH[m]> <terceiro "but if you recently recovered by"> I do not think we should be against anti-vaxxers mentality, we should just care what they affect on us. In the case of recovery from Covid, they affect nothing 18:32:00 <EnkelenaH[m]> <EnkelenaH[m] "I do not think we should be agai"> we can be against, I mean "care" 18:32:34 <DLange> yes, seconding that, too. No policing people please, just containing risk for (other) attendees. 18:32:53 <arianit[m]> Agree 18:33:07 <highvoltage> what happens if someone refuses to wear a mask then? or follow one of the other on-site policies? 18:33:07 <terceiro> ok 18:33:33 <DLange> highvoltage: I'll take you out :) 18:34:06 <highvoltage> *or fail to follow one of the other on-site policies 18:34:56 <DLange> as with any other venue / conference rule. People follow it or they go through the warning ... disallow attendance escalation. 18:35:06 <arianit[m]> Let's have in mind this is a moving target. What we agree here is that we will implement government requirments. Those rrequirements will give an idea on what people should expect 18:36:22 <EnkelenaH[m]> Yes arianit we are doing that, completely aligned now. But if government allows anti-vaxxers to participate in events, we will not change that after we decided today. 18:38:10 <DLange> can we move on? 18:38:18 <EnkelenaH[m]> yes please 18:38:33 <tzafrir> #topic Budget 18:38:55 <DLange> #link https://salsa.debian.org/debconf-team/public/data/dc21-online/-/tree/master/budget 18:39:07 <DLange> needs updating to current planning status 18:39:16 <tumbleweed> that's dc21, for a start :P 18:39:21 <DLange> damn 18:39:35 <DLange> #link https://salsa.debian.org/debconf-team/public/data/dc22/-/tree/main/budget 18:39:46 <tzafrir> #undo 18:39:46 <MeetBot> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.items.Link object at 0x17149d0> 18:39:47 <DLange> ETOOMUCHCRAPINBROWSERHISTORY 18:39:49 <tzafrir> #undo 18:39:49 <MeetBot> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.items.Link object at 0xf6e690> 18:39:59 <tzafrir> #link https://salsa.debian.org/debconf-team/public/data/dc22/-/tree/main/budget 18:40:41 <tumbleweed> we need an approved budget, before we can accept bursaries, sign contracts, etc. 18:40:58 <EnkelenaH[m]> We have a big picture, actually more specified, but which can not be updated until next week.

The shirts have just been sent a few weeks ago afaik, so they are not that late...) 18:44:18 <highvoltage> tumbleweed: fwiw, if additional budget is required to make something better / save someone a lot of time / etc then it can come out of usual Debian budget too 18:44:53 <tumbleweed> highvoltage: ack 18:45:08 <tumbleweed> DLange: I'm still waiting on some sponsorship stuff too, but I'll prod you in the other channel about that 18:46:06 <tzafrir> Anything else on the topic of budget? 18:46:11 <EnkelenaH[m]> sorry if you think its unrelated, but as a fast info, when will be new DPL be assigned? 18:46:36 <EnkelenaH[m]> or reassigned :) 18:46:55 <DLange> 21.04.2022 18:47:08 <EnkelenaH[m]> thanks! 18:47:14 <DLange> #link https://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2022/03/msg00001.html 18:47:58 <DLange> tzafrir: may be action EnkelenaH[m] with a deadline (middle of next week?) 18:48:21 <EnkelenaH[m]> Thursday next week works 18:48:21 <DLange> 31.03. looks reasonable for a budget draft 18:48:30 <DLange> gmta 18:48:49 <EnkelenaH[m]> 😄 18:49:17 <tzafrir> #action EnkelenaH[m] provide a budget draft by 31.3 18:49:47 <tzafrir> #topic Remote contingency planning 18:50:36 <tzafrir> Any plans? 18:50:38 <tumbleweed> The video team hasn't discussed this, I'll add it to their agenda 18:51:19 <tumbleweed> done 18:51:40 <tzafrir> Move to the next topic, then? 18:51:59 <tzafrir> #topic Meeting schedule 18:52:45 <tzafrir> Mon Apr-7th.
