09:27:51 Simon dwd: do you mean "we'd like to extend our thanks to Corp for their sponsorship of the XSF. This will help promote open federated communicaton… " type announcement or?

10:16:14 dwd Simon, I was thinking a less formal, "&Yet [or whoever] have kindly offered €1,000 toward the XSF Dinner". But whatever.

10:17:40 Simon Indeed. Always nice to tell sponsors about the good things that their money will do for them (besides affording me my McDonalds :)

10:28:52 intosi Will we need to choose from the menu before the event again?
10:30:29 dwd intosi, That level of logistics is down to FLorian, who seems very oevrworked at the moment.
10:32:42 Simon Too many Taxis?
10:33:50 Lloyd "Its not a taxi, its an executive transport service" - Florian when mentioning taxis
10:36:17 Simon remembers the SF taxi driver describing himself as a "transport engineer". Given his driving, he was more like particle physicist trying to smash atoms.
10:36:53 Simon Are developers also allowed to use über or can only "executives" ?
10:39:30 dwd Executive Developers are.

10:49:46 Steffen Larsen It got some fair price last time in london, with some good discount.
10:49:48 Steffen Larsen :-)
10:49:52 intosi has joined
10:50:55 Simon I read that the über drivers in Paris have to be delayed by 15 mins to avoid "unfair" competition with the ,kca
10:51:01 Simon local drivers.
10:51:05 Steffen Larsen ha ha
10:51:18 Kev has joined
10:51:27 Steffen Larsen isn't it a free market there?
10:52:16 Simon Guess France has a different view on free markets…
10:52:26 Steffen Larsen ;-)
10:52:53 Steffen Larsen well we have a special law here as well for taxies.. And I dont think über can easily enter here as well.
10:53:08 Simon Funny thing is that all the Munich (regular) drivers already use an über equivalent for arranging pickups (and drive around doing normal pickups too).
10:53:21 ralphm Steffen Larsen: let me know where there are true free markets for taxis
10:53:21 Steffen Larsen he he
10:53:23 Simon Where's here?
10:53:33 Steffen Larsen Copenhagen
10:53:38 Steffen Larsen well Denmark
10:53:46 ralphm I think it is regulated everywhere
10:53:56 Steffen Larsen ralphm: true.. that was my point.. a bit of irony

12:00:29 dwd On phone to Domicilium.
12:04:43 dwd They just say to send a mail to helpdesk@domicilium.com. Which doesn't sound hopeful.
12:05:02 Simon begin spamming…. NOW!
12:05:16 dwd No, best not. I'll try a different approach.
12:05:34 Simon Did you try ping that guy on LinkedIn?
12:05:59 dwd Simon, He's a 3rd-level contact, I'll see if I can edge closer first. :-)
12:08:28 emcho has joined
12:30:03 ralphm Ever since I started at Rackspace I've been spoiled by Fanatical Support. I suppose Domicilium doesn't have it?
12:34:37 Laura has left
12:39:16 dwd I think you misspelt that.
12:39:34 dwd It's "Fanatical Support™", isn't it?
12:41:20 Simon Chatted with James Body - "https://www.linkedin.com/pub/phil-adcock/7/86/436 is definitely the guy you want" try him on phil.adcock@domecill….im
12:45:06 Simon Found his e-mail: padcock@domicilium.com Twitter @philipadcock
12:55:17 dwd Ah, good.
12:55:21 ralphm dwd: probably. In any case, you start expecting it from every service company, is my experience. Not sure if that's a blessing or a curse.

13:51:52 dwd Thanks.
13:58:05 Kev Is that the sort of stuff we should be publicly archiving?
13:58:27 emcho has left
13:58:34 dwd Kev, You're normally the one arguing things should be publicly archived. :-)
13:58:43 Kev Not people's phone numbers.
13:58:50 dwd That's the main switchboard number.
13:58:56 Kev Ah, OK.
13:59:35 Simon and his email address is on a few press releases.
14:00:11 dwd Mailed him too.
14:01:14 winfried wonders if he should suspend his LinkedIN account in the meanwhile
14:16:01 dwd Ah, Phil Adcock just connected with me on LinkedIn. So, progress.
