I will renew my gpg-key since mine is expiring in some days and I want to have good signatures ;) 19:24:25 but both sides would be good.. those things turn around all the time 19:25:02 manut (IRC) yes this was my idea. i think 4-5 fit on one A4!? 19:25:09 Rince, you don't need to create a new one, just increase the expire date 19:26:00 we could use the fingerprints that people entered during registration (Rince, it can be updated their any time..) 19:26:15 manut (IRC) do you have a template from HH? 19:26:17 LaggyLuke82[mds], sounds reasonable 19:26:35 LaggyLuke82[mds], it's in the box in the office, but there is just real name on it.. 19:26:57 no, i meant template in the form of an SVG :) i am a lazy guy :D 19:27:16 LaggyLuke82[mds], let me see if I have one from a big debconf; i guess there we had nick, realname and gpg fingerprint on the badge 19:27:21 i am basically interested into the dimensions 19:27:35 LaggyLuke82[mds], no no template - sorry 19:27:51 i will figure it out by myself, no problem 19:28:28 anything else? or next topic? 19:29:09 nothing to add from my side 19:29:30 #topic Accommodation 19:30:37 Everything seems to work out with the hostel; we booked two family rooms - one from tuesday to sunday and one from wednsday to sunday for the bern people and one double bed room for a couple.
