Summits, Conferences and Meetups workgroup - 2018-01-11

So stickers are plenty?

Yeah, I've got several hundered of the small sticker that's jsut the logo

I've also have plenty of those server info folders that Arc designed last year

it's transparent

Are those the shaped (laptop) stickers, like we had other years?

yeah, just the logo, die-cast. approximately 2 by 2 inch each

ok

do we want to sell shirts and hoodies again?

if so: do we have shirts and hoodies?

Making banners can be done very fast. Other suggestions has been a proper table cloth again

We have no clothing left

Naked day!

I think it'd be nice to be able to distribute the clothing - they were popular last year.

So besides stuff we could sell at FOSDEM, Kev also suggested having summit-only t-shirts

For that I'd actually collect individual sizes

We could this by adding a column in the wiki

if there's interest, sure.

do we have a design for those in mind?

also, for the summit shirts and hoodies: can we perhaps simply re-order from where we had them produced last year?

banner wise: you're referring to something like this, Ralphm? https://previews.123rf.com/images/nk2549/nk25491201/nk2549120100005/11930186-blank-roll-up-banner-display-3-view-template-for-design-work-Stock-Photo.jpg

Dave, you had a couple of nice swag suggestions earlier. I recall that I liked them, not what they were :)

Guus: yeah, they're roughly €35

(drukwerkdeal)

Guus, "Hello My Jid Is" stickers.

you know what, let me create a list of ideas real quick...

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UMtBHfUd9hdnQKDypZ_9uxnkGR2PkcI3uIelx2Ive98/edit?usp=sharing

I've had one of my friends with a background in design come up with a banner design. What do you guys think of this?

(he obviously used the old logo ;) )

I think the most interesting part is not the logo

I have some mad inkscape skills and the logo as svg

No, the most interesting is 'the other stuff', what text we put up

(although I like that background, maybe slightly lighter)

I have no sense of style, fashion or color. I like this, but by all means, improve or change it.

I've done some quick googling for some of the swag ideas we had

I've added them to that spreadsheet

I'll need to be off soon.

I'm looking at Dave's cashflow sheet for summit 15, but it doesn't list swag.

We only got t-shirts that year.

€370 worth, as I recall.

although he sold for 370 euro's in t-shirts. No idea how many that werer :)

Oh, was that in? I forget.

intosi, didn't I hear you say at one point that you were involved in the ordering of the hoodies? Do you recall how many you had, and how long that stock lasted?

I (personally) wouldn't do hoodies again. I think most who want them have them, and we should do something different.

that does make sense. We could always do them again in a couple of yearas.

in any case, I got to go - picking up the kids

Guus: if you did, it was not in this universe.

https://mail.jabber.org/pipermail/members/2012-February/006679.html for some more historical info.

That was the "Grey Hoodie" year. (I'm weraing mine, by coincidence, today)

I found the exact font used in the XMPP Logo

(for the letters XMPP)

oops

That pre-rendering by Gajim is horrible

http://mag.ik.nu/~ralphm/tmp/summit_Brussels_2018.png

That'd be something for what Kev was asking

ralphm, I like it - but isn't it the 'xsf summit' ?

No

We've always referred to it as 'XMPP Summit'

I hope the shirt isn't Barf coloured again ;)

ah, ok.

(I'm also perparing dinner and rushing kids to practise at the same time, my response time might vary

intosi: you have a voice in how it looks

just by being here

You can even order them or provide designs :-)

My little drawing is just an example. I kinda like that I was able to find the exact font.

Also, Inkscape FTW

Hello my jid is is by the way a pretty cool idea

Inkscape is very nice for these types of jobs.
