XMPP Summit - 2019-01-14


  1. Guus

    More following-up has occurred with the hotel. Sadly, no form yet.

  2. intosi

    :(

  3. Kev

    The gift that keeps on giving.

  4. Kev

    I was hoping by this year they'd have got it in gear and not needed stupid things like emailing a credit card number...but I'm not encouraged.

  5. intosi

    I'm sure it'll be fine, and they will process the now-mandatory DNA sample with care as well. ;)

  6. Guus

    I wouldn't get your hopes up, no.

  7. Guus

    apparently, the people that generate the form are in Norway.

  8. Guus

    so there's physical distance between the people that I'm talking to, and the people we're waiting far.

  10. Guus

    You'd expect that things like these would go smooth, in a hotel like this though.

  11. Guus

    oh well

  12. intosi

    It sounds very EU-ish. The forms are probably translated into French, Dutch and Norwegian first, then sent on, the replies being crosstranslated, etc.

  13. Guus

    or the one guy that knows how to do this is having a couple of weeks off.

  14. intosi

    Plausible.

  15. pep.

    They need a protocal that can do multilang messages

  17. Alex

    probably still working on the GDPR form

  18. Guus

    You guys will shed tears of joy

  19. Guus

    webform, no word doc. Online payment.

  20. Seve/SouL claps

  21. Kev

    Guus: I am astounded.

  22. Kev

    http, presumably? :)

  23. Guus

    Not even!

  24. intosi

    Whooptidoo

  25. Kev

    gopher://?

  26. Guus

    I've just sent a mail that includes the reservation form link to everyone that asked for it.

  27. intosi

    HTTPS, no document to send.

  28. Guus

    if you didn't get any, I might have messed up. Poke me.

  29. intosi

    I am ... well, I am actually surprised.

  30. Guus

    Also, I forgot Alex.

  31. Guus

    doing that now 🙂

  32. Guus

    ralphm, I didn't see your name in my mailinglist todo, by the way, but you probably want one too?

  33. Alex

    booked (Y)

  34. ralphm

    Guus: if this is about wanting a Thon reservation, then yes, I want one.

  35. Guus

    ralphm I just sent you an email

  36. ralphm

    Yay

  37. ralphm

    booked

  38. intosi

    (Y)

  39. Guus

    I have now handed out a link to as many people as we have rooms reserved. Please let me know if you're _not_ using the link after all. I currently don't have more people that are interested, but if anyone is, I can also ask the hotel to make more rooms available.

  40. Kev

    Thanks Guus.

  41. jjrh

    Is there a time for https://wiki.xmpp.org/web/Sprints/2019_January_Brussels ? I'm guessing 10am?

  42. Guus

    jjrh most people involved with the sprints are in xmpp:xmpp-sprint@chat.cluxia.eu?join

  43. Guus

    I'd join there, and ask. I do love having sprints, but am not involved in planning these.

  44. jjrh

    Thanks, I wasn't sure if that was unrelated to the summit or not.

  45. pep.

    Yes please do join there if you have questions

  46. pep.

    Though, I have no clue either about times

  47. Guus

    jjrh - it's not directly related to the summit, but there'll obviously be overlap 🙂 I'm focussing on the summit organisation here, though, as that keeps me busy plenty 😛
