hey
-
Kev
Af'noon.
-
stpeter
(sorry, on the IETF Tools Team call so a bit distracted)
-
Ashley Roach
no worries, i miraculously paid attention to my calendar, and so i was able to attend in time :)
-
stpeter
not sure if our Chair is available
-
Neustradamus
Hi all, I have a new remark :D It is possible to change: "This is JUser -- a mailing list for end users of Jabber clients." => "This is JUser -- a mailing list for end users of Jabber/XMPP clients."
-
stpeter
Neustradamus: fixed
-
Neustradamus
stpeter: thanks :)
-
Kev
I think Dave isn't going to be available, judging by his comments in other MUCs.
-
stpeter
well, I'm still on the phone, but here's where I think we are on FOSDEM/Summit
-
stpeter
we need to finalize the speaker list / schedule
-
stpeter
I might have time to work on that later today or tonight, but probably tomorrow
-
stpeter
we need to submit it to the FOSDEM folks by the 21st
-
stpeter
I now have credentials to use their tool to do this (previously only Ralph had credentials)
-
dwd
Back, sorry. Was expecting to have been back a little earlier.
-
stpeter
so that's the most pressing concern
-
stpeter
Florian is following up about real-time lounge furniture and such
-
dwd
We also have t-shirts to worry ourselves over.
-
stpeter
we need to organize the lounge a bit more seriously
-
dwd
Yes - we have a fair number of demos and people, but we're lacking in equipment, furnishings, etc.
-
Neustradamus
stpeter: in the same time: _______________________________________________ JAdmin mailing list FAQ: http://www.jabber.org/discussion-lists/jadmin-faq Forum: http://www.jabberforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=19 Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jadmin Unsubscribe: JAdmin-unsubscribe@jabber.org _______________________________________________ => FAQ and Forum lines can be removed.
-
stpeter
I still need to follow up on some of the equipment
-
stpeter
Neustradamus: we're having a meeting right now, could you wait about posting further little nits?
-
Neustradamus
stpeter: yes ok!
- kevin has joined
-
stpeter
Neustradamus: but I fixed that bug :)
-
dwd
I *think* our major problem is going to be furnishings rather than equipment. I've a feeling that we can find projectors and suchlike if not from Cisco, then from somewhere.
-
dwd
And worst case we can do without anything beyond a few laptops, as long as the place looks the part.
-
Neustradamus
stpeter: ok ah, I discover a lot of bugs :D
-
stpeter
I did reserve rooms at the Cisco office but I need to follow up with people in Diegem to find out exactly what they've assigned to us, plus I need to order lunch
-
stpeter
dwd: Florian was following up about furnishings but I've not heard more about that
-
dwd
On the t-shirts front, I think I can sort out t-shirts, the tricky bit is that our current pricing includes VAT - I believe we can avoid VAT (although as we're selling in the EU, it's not 100% clear), but it's not very clear how.
-
stpeter
dwd: I think Will might have insights, since he ordered the shirts last time (or the time before, I can't recall)
-
dwd
The hooded T's which I thought would be awesome have been discontinued, they've offered us a good rate on actual hoodies, but it's tighter than I hoped - especially if we can't get out of VAT.
-
dwd
stpeter, I think possibly both times.
-
dwd
stpeter, And yes, I shall seek advice, I sometimes talk to Will anyway.
-
dwd
stpeter, But I suspect that having the XSF issue a purchase order will, likely, come into it somewhere.
-
dwd
stpeter, Oh, and I think we may actually have too many talks, now.
-
dwd
Pulling some onto Friday could be a reasonable option.
-
dwd
(Depending on the audience).
-
dwd
I can also shorten mine, if it's put after the Bowser ID chap.
-
Kev
dwd: Was your intention with the Peter/Remko/Kev talk to be Q&Aish, or 101ish?
-
Kev
Or something else entirely?
-
dwd
I was anticipating a kind of mud wrestling thing.
-
dwd
No, really, I was hoping for a 101ish thing.
-
dwd
I was hoping to handle the Q&A "Ask The Experts" thing by having a question or two as speakers change over.
-
dwd
But my main concern with the talks currently is that we have a very tight schedule, now, and no slack whatsoever.
-
stpeter
(sorry, got interrupted)
-
dwd
Going by previous years, we will simply never get to FZ/JS's talk, for instance.
-
stpeter
dwd: yes, I think we might want to push some talks to Friday
-
stpeter
dwd: e.g., mine :)
-
dwd
I was going to suggest yours.
-
Kev
Talks to XMPP people, instead of talks selling XMPP, can probably be moved.
-
stpeter
so I will look at that after the IESG telechat tomorrow, or tonight if I can finish my telechat prep today
-
stpeter
Kev: exactly
-
dwd
My "Welcome" chat is basically fluff to cover your setup, BTW - "Look, MSFT and Skype do XMPP now! Join the XSF! There's the RTL!".
-
stpeter
yep
-
stpeter
so I think we'll be fine
-
dwd
So I'll do that over the top of people walking in, and once the room's settled hand to you guys.
-
stpeter
I notice that the FOSDEM folks say "you might want to schedule a break so people don't get too tired"
-
stpeter
https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/devroom-managers/2012-January/000005.html
-
Kev
I hadn't seen that, but had thought that.
-
dwd
Yeah, we scheduled some web talks when everyone can leave. ;-)
-
Kev
An hour off for lunch would make things much better.
-
dwd
Also provides a slack point to get back onto schedule.
-
stpeter
dwd: yes
-
Kev
Quite.
-
dwd
Oh, reminds me - I had discussed with Florian about ensuring that a sandwich run happens for the guys at the stand. (ie, someone dashes down to the cafe and grabs enough sandwiches and drink for the helpers there).
-
stpeter
dwd: yes, that's important
-
stpeter
so when shall we schedule the break?
-
Kev
Do we have plans about manning the stand?
-
stpeter
Kev: in the works :)
-
Kev
Jolly good.
-
stpeter
I've been focusing on the devroom first
-
stpeter
I think it would be best to have people sign up for shirts at the lounge
-
stpeter
instead of hoping that folks show up
-
stpeter
er
-
dwd
Shifts.
-
stpeter
shifts
-
stpeter
yeah
-
stpeter
doing too many things at once here :)
-
dwd
I had to parse that twice before it made sense. :-)
-
stpeter
sorry :)
-
dwd
So - other than furniture - I think we're good.
-
stpeter
at least on track
-
dwd
Right.
-
stpeter
I'll add an RTL sign-up area to the wiki page
-
dwd
I was being slightly more up-beat than that.
-
dwd
Oh, Dinner sponsorship - I do know we're on track there as well.
-
Kev
Yay :)
-
dwd
Last I heard, we were breaking even. But then again, not all the Isode folk have signed up yet...
-
Kev
I have!
-
stpeter
when do the stands open?
-
dwd
iono.
-
stpeter
ok
-
stpeter
will find out
-
stpeter
might also be 11, but could be earlier
-
dwd
For the RTL, we need both reasonable coverage of demos through the day, and also general staffing, and "XMPP Expert" staffing, too.
-
dwd
The latter two can mix.
-
stpeter
http://fosdem.org/2012/schedule/days indicates the start time might be 09:00
-
stpeter
dwd: good point
-
dwd
OK. Anything else to go over?
-
stpeter
not today, I think
-
dwd
OK. I'll be about (in here) tomorrow to thrash out the talk schedule.
-
dwd
Thanks all, then.
-
Ashley Roach
thanks!
-
stpeter
dwd: thanks
-
stpeter
dwd: I have the IESG telechat in the morning tomorrow but after that I'll be free
-
stpeter
http://wiki.xmpp.org/web/FOSDEM_2012#Help_at_the_Real_Time_Lounge updated with volunteering opportunities :)
- ralphm waves
-
ralphm
stpeter: did I mention I have credentials for filling in the schedule at the FOSDEM site?
-
stpeter
ralphm: no, but yaloki told me and I have credentials now, too
-
ralphm
stpeter: heh
-
ralphm
I haven't been keeping up with things
-
ralphm
the list of demos for the RTL seems a bit thin
-
stpeter
ralphm: I think we're doing well on the talks, just need a bit of culling and further organization
-
stpeter
ralphm: indeed
-
stpeter
ralphm: I'm about to post to summit@ about that
-
ralphm
What about how the RTL is dressed up?
-
ralphm
Any news on that?
-
stpeter
Florian was pursuing that, but I don't have news
-
ralphm
I'd be more than happy to be your alternate on sunday, btw
-
stpeter
ok :)
