  2. lissine

    Never mind my previous message the apps are free now

  3. lissine

    ~Apparently the Google developer console follows the Pacific Standard Time Thus the apps should be free at 9am local time~

  4. lissine

    I just experienced a message edit (from Monal) that showed up as a different message on Conversations 😅

  5. lissine

    by different I mean separate

  6. ralphm

    lissine: the specification is about *last* message correction, and so implementations may only allow that

  10. emus

  13. ralphm

    Feel free to add

  14. emus

    Thanks, all images are okay to publish?

  15. Daniel

    I think technically we didn't ask for consent at the summit

  16. emus

    Is it possible to shoot one with consent?

  17. Alex

    We could still ask for consent

  18. emus

    Any one that one can see on the booth picture here?

  19. emus

    or maybe just take a new one suitable for the media channels

  20. ralphm

    Daniel: agreed that I could have mentioned I was going to make this picture. According to Belgian (and Dutch) legislation, derived from EU law, this one particular image would be considered an undirected picture, for which there are no portrait rights, and concent is not required. As the copyright holder I am happy for the XSF to use my images for promotional purposes. If somebody objects after the fact, we can reevaluate. Does that work for you?

  21. Daniel

    I'm not going to enter into a legal debate but it is a very common practice in our circles in general as well as at former summits to ask before a picture is taken with the intent to publish. I have no issue with you taking the picture for personal use but I do have some issues with it being publicly available.

  22. Alex

    We can still ask for consent

  23. ralphm

    I assumed you wanted to discuss the legal angle because of the word "technically". I am fine either way, and if somebody objects, like you, then we won't use it.

  24. emus

    I solved the situation

  26. ralphm

    I just made this picture of a bunch of us at the booth and have gained explicit permission for this to be used for public promotions:

  30. emus

    How is it with box I gave is enough or too few?

  31. intosi

    Considering Guus also brought a box of stickers, we will manage. Great that you added the buttons!

  32. intosi

    I also had some old stickers from previous years. I don't think we've made too big a dent in your box yet, but there is tomorrow.

  33. emus

    Okay fine

  34. ralphm

    The conversations stickers came from that box

  35. deuill

    hook: We're at the booth and leaving in a bit for dinner -- not sure if you wanted to join?

  36. hook

    deuill: thanks for the invite, but have dinner plans already. Busy time fosdem

  37. deuill

    Nice, have fun!

  38. hook

    deuill: thanks, likewise

  39. hook

    You guys going to ByteNight later?

  40. deuill

  41. mathieui

    deuill: a party for FOSDEM users, on the other side of the city

    Dudes from our hackerspace say last year's bytenight was better.
