The only sensible seller seems to be Netgate (https://store.netgate.com/Turbot2.aspx ). 19:03:59 <paddatrapper> Heh, any time 19:04:44 <pollo> I can do it, but that will mean extra border fees 19:05:27 <pollo> maybe tumbleweed could do it since he's in the US and already has a bunch of opsises? 19:05:44 <olasd> he does? 19:05:50 <pollo> doesn't he? 19:05:52 <paddatrapper> Is it a US company? 19:05:58 <olasd> there's one with paddatrapper, two with me and one with RattusRattus 19:06:11 <pollo> hmmm, why do we need 5 then? 19:06:13 <paddatrapper> tumbleweed has one I think 19:06:26 <paddatrapper> We have 5 opsises in total 19:06:34 <olasd> and we already have one turbot 19:06:51 <paddatrapper> We do? 19:06:55 <pollo> yup 19:07:12 <paddatrapper> Awesome. Then we only need 4 19:07:31 <highvoltage> a turbot appears to be some kind of fish 19:07:39 <pollo> well, I guess I could buy them and bring them to Hamburg 19:07:51 <pollo> highvoltage: minnowboard turbot SoC 19:08:06 <highvoltage> thanks 19:08:32 <pollo> the EU shop for the board sells them at 200 USD -_-, 19:08:42 <olasd> sure 19:08:46 <olasd> with VAT and duties paid 19:09:18 <pollo> ah, maybe it's worth it then, not sure taxes are included on the US price 19:09:26 * highvoltage gives them bonus points for listing Debian above Windows, Ubuntu and Android on their compatibility list 19:09:49 <olasd> pollo: the full price VAT included for four turbots from Mouser France is 772.61 EUR 19:10:19 <paddatrapper> And how much do we have approval for? 19:10:40 <pollo> 745 USD 19:11:15 <olasd> 596 USD for four boards :P 19:11:47 <highvoltage> olasd: wouldn't it be worth while getting the cases too? 19:12:00 <olasd> we're going to mount them in something else 19:12:03 <olasd> (with the opsises) 19:12:04 <highvoltage> ah cool 19:12:05 <paddatrapper> highvoltage: we are mounting them in our opsis cases 19:12:18 <pollo> so we buy them via Debian Fr? 19:12:36 <olasd> I don't know 19:12:43 <olasd> but we should probably consider it 19:13:11 <pollo> I'll try to mail netgate to estimate the taxes + shipping + border fees to Canada 19:13:17 <olasd> sounds good 19:13:33 <pollo> #action pollo to look at complete pricing to turbots to canada 19:13:46 <pollo> #topic Hamburg mini-debconf 19:13:55 <pollo> We have to decide what to do with regards to the audio hardware for the Hamburg mini-conf. 19:14:06 <pollo> Our current audio kit doesn't work reliably enough to be used there. We thus have 2 options: 19:14:10 <pollo> rent some 19:14:19 <pollo> or buy the audio kit we've been talking about 19:14:46 <pollo> olasd: weren't you saying that the wireless receiver we wanted was hard to get in France? 19:15:01 <olasd> well I couldn't find a distributor at all, actually 19:15:13 <paddatrapper> We could buy some (mixer, stage box) and rent mic receivers 19:15:22 <olasd> the mixer we already have 19:16:00 <paddatrapper> RattusRattus and I were looking on the Shure website, so hadn't started looking at suppliers... 19:16:08 <tumbleweed> sorry, I'm in another meeting atm 19:16:14 <paddatrapper> olasd: I thought the current kit was too unreliable to use? 19:16:29 <pollo> I don't have tons of time, so I think we should try to get some gear from the CCC instead 19:16:30 <olasd> fledermaus bought a mixer for us during the Cambridge miniconf 19:16:37 <olasd> it's at Rattus's 19:16:45 <paddatrapper> Ah awesome 19:17:03 <paddatrapper> pollo: sounds good 19:17:26 <olasd> sure 19:17:41 <pollo> #action pollo to poke holger about getting mics from the CCC 19:17:51 <olasd> I figured we could probably buy the hardware if the logistics were solved before this meeting, but as nothing happened... 19:18:04 <pollo> talking about that mixer, we need to retrieve it somehow 19:18:17 <paddatrapper> Are there speakers at the venue? 19:18:21 <pollo> I tried to use lamby as a mule but that didn't work, so I guess we'll need to have RattusRattus ship it 19:18:24 <pollo> paddatrapper: yeah 19:18:35 <olasd> well RattusRattus has free time to come to the miniconf now 19:18:40 <olasd> doesn't he? :P 19:18:51 <olasd> (wink wink nudge nudge etc.) 19:19:09 <pollo> I'm guessing he quit his job :p 19:19:22 <pollo> anyway, can someone take the task of following up with him on this? 19:19:42 <paddatrapper> I'm happy to 19:19:44 <olasd> as I'm the recipient, I will 19:19:49 <olasd> saves us some trouble 19:20:00 <pollo> #action olasd to follow-up with RattusRattus to get the mixing desk 19:20:28 <pollo> goot, anything else on the Hamburg mini-conf? 19:20:43 <olasd> pollo: we need to figure out how to get you there 19:20:47 <h01ger> mics from ccc or mics from the venue.. 19:20:48 <olasd> but we can do that off meeting 19:20:49 <pollo> taking the place? 19:20:50 <h01ger> but yeah 19:20:52 <pollo> plane 19:21:02 <olasd> aren't you landing in Paris? 19:21:08 <pollo> olasd: nope, I leave from Paris 19:21:12 <olasd> oh, I see 19:21:34 <pollo> somehow getting from Hamburg and back is as expensive as getting to Taiwan... 19:21:36 <pollo> anyway 19:21:38 <olasd> anyway, we can see that off-meeting 19:21:40 * nicoo is late :( 19:21:43 <pollo> #topic Preparations for DC18 19:21:51 <pollo> #info The DC18 local team tested the venue's projectors for us and it seems we will be able to use them. 19:22:01 <olasd> good 19:22:31 <paddatrapper> Mixers also look like they will be fine. Just need the headset mics and mic stands 19:22:42 <paddatrapper> And maybe snakes 19:22:44 <pollo> 6 x headsets microphones (they only have clip-ons) & 4 x mic stands 19:22:52 <olasd> I'm not taking snakes on a plane 19:22:55 <olasd> ;p 19:23:02 <pollo> we are going to use our mics for the ambient, thus the 4 stands 19:23:12 <paddatrapper> Keep them in the hold and all is good :) 19:23:23 * nicoo is caught up with the backlog 19:23:36 <paddatrapper> 4 mics doesn't divide cleanly into 3 rooms 19:23:48 <pollo> 2 in the int'l and 1 in each other 19:23:55 <paddatrapper> Cool 19:24:07 <pollo> I think the next step is to get plans of the rooms? 19:24:18 <paddatrapper> I can spend the week after next drawing up equipment lists, etc 19:24:48 <paddatrapper> pollo: we have those don't we? At least for one room (not sure which) 19:24:56 <pollo> I haven't seen them 19:24:57 <olasd> we'll need to find/rent SDI cables and computers for mixing as well 19:25:06 <olasd> (video mixing) 19:25:23 <olasd> and a bunch of pairs of headphones 19:25:26 <pollo> #action paddatrapper to come up with the equipement rental list 19:25:33 <paddatrapper> Do we have the BlackMagic cards? 19:25:37 <olasd> yeah 19:25:46 <olasd> I have all 7 of them 19:25:54 <paddatrapper> Awesome 19:26:08 <pollo> #info as of now, we need to rent 6 x headsets, 4 x mic stands, SDI cables and headphones.
