I try to push it a bit. 19:14:42 <moray> zumbi: thanks 19:14:45 <AbsintheSyringe> I have couple of more sponsors 19:14:48 <AbsintheSyringe> big ones 19:14:51 <AbsintheSyringe> and after that 19:14:55 <AbsintheSyringe> we're set I guess 19:14:56 <moray> zumbi: also would be good if you can check what other people are doing/encourage them/report back 19:15:01 <AbsintheSyringe> we have govt and sponsors 19:15:03 <AbsintheSyringe> and we're good to go 19:15:10 <nattie> AbsintheSyringe: can you give us concrete information on that at some point in the near future? 19:15:23 <moray> zumbi: a few other people are still vaguely meant to be working, according to the DebConf11/Teams wiki page 19:15:32 <AbsintheSyringe> nattie, yea, once I'm back in Bosnia tho 19:15:40 <moray> #topic Magazine adverts 19:15:44 <moray> this is also sponsorship team 19:15:48 <AbsintheSyringe> and after moray and h01ger leave or during their stay, by the end of the month either way 19:15:55 <AbsintheSyringe> my idea is to 19:15:58 <AbsintheSyringe> release those 19:16:02 <AbsintheSyringe> for the next month 19:16:03 <moray> zumbi: can you check the dates Linux Journal said? I think we've already missed their deadlines 19:16:11 <AbsintheSyringe> so it appears in next months magazine issue 19:16:16 <AbsintheSyringe> same goes for nezavisne novine 19:16:18 <moray> zumbi: unless there's been more messages to them 19:16:23 <AbsintheSyringe> for example 19:16:24 <AbsintheSyringe> with nezavisne novine 19:16:37 <AbsintheSyringe> we could get couple of pro/corp attendees but it's more to 19:16:39 <AbsintheSyringe> do PR 19:16:42 <moray> AbsintheSyringe: I think we may be too late for the right issue of Linux Journal 19:16:49 <AbsintheSyringe> and of course bring awareness 19:16:52 <AbsintheSyringe> moray, ok 19:16:53 <nattie> so we should perhaps do Thank You ads instead? 19:17:03 <AbsintheSyringe> moray, then July? 19:17:12 <AbsintheSyringe> nattie, what do you mean? 19:17:33 <nattie> ads that run after the conf, thanking our sponsors 19:17:45 <nattie> and cautiously hinting at next year's edition 19:17:55 <AbsintheSyringe> nah 19:17:58 <AbsintheSyringe> def not 19:18:02 <AbsintheSyringe> we have to do it before 19:18:18 <AbsintheSyringe> at least for nezavisne we're gonna do it because I can reach them easily 19:18:29 <AbsintheSyringe> I would contact Linux Journal 19:18:32 <AbsintheSyringe> as well but I don't have their contact 19:18:50 <nattie> AbsintheSyringe: i believe that deadline has already oassed 19:18:53 <nattie> passed 19:18:56 <moray> AbsintheSyringe: the sponsorship team already spoke to them -- as with other sponsors, we should keep the same contact 19:19:05 <h01ger> there is a ticket in rt about it 19:19:15 <h01ger> queue sponsors 19:19:28 <AbsintheSyringe> k 19:19:30 <AbsintheSyringe> ok 19:19:33 <AbsintheSyringe> then I'll take care of this 19:19:42 <h01ger> AbsintheSyringe, got rt access? 19:19:42 <moray> "The ad is due on May 4th. I can get you 1-2 day extension if needed." 19:19:51 <nattie> it's now the 10th 19:19:52 <AbsintheSyringe> h01ger, yea, what date? 19:19:56 <moray> I assume we didn't send anything for 4 May 19:20:01 <nattie> so i suspect we're scuppered for that issue 19:20:02 <AbsintheSyringe> h01ger, actualy no 19:20:47 <h01ger> AbsintheSyringe, please send mail to admin@debconf.org then 19:20:56 <AbsintheSyringe> k 19:21:12 <moray> but (as I said above) we should keep the same person in contact with them 19:21:16 <nattie> AbsintheSyringe: i really think it's important to continue talking to the contact we've already established 19:21:23 <moray> it looks like it was mostly Pablo 19:21:28 <moray> so please speak to Pablo 19:21:34 <moray> e.g. he may know more than is in RT 19:21:43 <nattie> since he has experience 19:22:14 <Clint> who did it before him? 19:22:20 <AbsintheSyringe> nattie, me too 19:22:33 <AbsintheSyringe> I'd be happy if I don't have to do this 19:22:40 <AbsintheSyringe> I already have too many things on my back 19:22:41 <moray> Clint: I'm just looking at the RT mails I have as a non-member of the sponsorship team who gets spammed some of the stuff 19:22:42 <nattie> AbsintheSyringe: then delegate, delegate, delegate 19:22:48 <AbsintheSyringe> so if someone else will do I'd be glad if not I'll do it 19:22:54 <AbsintheSyringe> nattie, :) 19:22:55 <moray> Clint: the secret sponsorship team files may say more 19:23:06 <nattie> so do we resolve to contact Pablo and get him to do it? 19:23:20 <Clint> moray: i'm pretty sure they don't have anything about the magazines 19:23:23 <Clint> i think i looked last year 19:23:48 <moray> I think Pablo may still be holidaying, he had some post from Iguazu on Planet 19:23:52 <moray> (IIRC) 19:24:21 <moray> Clint: this is a sponsorship team thing, any chance you can work out what's going on and poke Pablo or speak to Linux Journal yourself? 19:24:44 <moray> Clint: it's not a *disaster* if we've missed the pre-DC11 deadlines, but in that case we need to negotiate a post-conf ad anyway 19:25:10 <nattie> i think it's going to be more sensible to aim for a post-conf ad, at this point 19:25:21 <moray> nattie: I'm not at all sure my deadline quote is right 19:25:33 <moray> nattie: it's cut out of a vast top-posted email thread 19:25:46 <nattie> ok, once we establish what the actual deadlines are, we can act 19:25:47 <moray> and may e.g. be for a different year :) 19:25:52 <nattie> and then we should act reasonably quickly 19:25:59 <Clint> moray: magazine ads are well outside my area of expertise, and i don't expect to be able to contact DrDub any better than y'all 19:26:19 <h01ger> Clint, true, but we're trying to distribute load ;) 19:26:22 <moray> Clint: I think we're looking for someone with the time for it, rather than expertise 19:26:36 <moray> Clint: the magazine ad production itself is not part of this job 19:26:43 <zumbi> who has the email of that LJ guy? 19:27:19 <Clint> moray: really? i was under the impression that all we had to do was send the ad and they'd run it 19:27:51 <zumbi> if I can get a hold of all the bits I can try to take care of the LJ affair 19:28:04 <moray> Clint: if you can read the sponsorship team stuff and tell us the address to send it to and deadline (that didn't already pass) then the job is done 19:28:40 <Clint> sure, i can do that. we already slipped one or two months on it, i believe 19:29:29 <moray> Clint: right, I fear we passed the relevant deadline, and it's in that case that some sponsorship team person needs to negotiate what happens next 19:29:47 <moray> but perhaps we still are on time, in which case it's merely a matter of saying where to send it 19:31:25 <moray> Clint/zumbi: ok, can you sort it out between you? I understand there's even a sponsorship team IRC channel you can discuss on ;) 19:31:35 <h01ger> shall we move on? Clint has offered to do this and i'm sure he's captable of finishing this off! ;) 19:31:53 <moray> #action Clint and zumbi to find out what's going on with the magazine ad 19:32:10 <moray> #topic Registration progress 19:32:18 <moray> does someone have the current figures? 19:32:43 <moray> #info Registration was extended until 19 May 19:32:51 <darst> http://rkd.zgib.net/http/debconf/registration-data.txt 19:33:06 <moray> #info 348 attend 19:33:09 <h01ger> is applying for sponsored travel closed or open now? how should it be? 19:33:26 <Ganneff> hrm. noone updated the munin scripts yet? 19:33:29 <moray> darst: 348 now? wasn't it lower recently? 19:33:49 <darst> that's just what the script says... 19:33:56 <darst> it's still updating, that's all I can say 19:34:07 <h01ger> http://munin.debconf.org/debconf.org/skinner.debconf.org-penta_accounts_type.html doesnt look up2date 19:34:16 <h01ger> Ganneff, no, i've asked you about it, but iirc got no comment 19:34:27 <moray> whoever updates that -- please archive the current one first 19:34:38 <Ganneff> h01ger: it just needs someone to update the .sh, then a copy into the /etc/munin/plugins 19:34:38 <h01ger> ie just some words, so i can do it 19:34:43 <moray> we forgot to do the archiving sometimes, but the archived years' data has been useful 19:34:44 <h01ger> which .sh? 19:34:50 <Ganneff> h01ger: you are munin maint, i would guess you know how to find that :) 19:34:56 <Ganneff> h01ger: well. the right ones, on skinner 19:35:09 <h01ger> Ganneff, i dont know how these plugins are written. but i will looko 19:35:10 <h01ger> now 19:35:21 <Ganneff> simple shell, using psql 19:35:27 <moray> h01ger: the archiving part should be easy, probably just a cp of the directory 19:35:40 <moray> h01ger: (as was done for e.g. dc7) 19:35:45 <Ganneff> yes 19:36:07 <h01ger> /var/lib/munin i assume?! 19:36:16 <Ganneff> the plugins not. 19:36:32 <Ganneff> and the munin server is not skinner, but there you want to copy the www dir 19:36:35 <Ganneff> for archival 19:36:38 <h01ger> ah 19:37:09 <moray> #topic Budget team progress 19:37:13 <moray> darst: is this you? 19:37:33 <nattie> isn't it always? 19:37:44 <h01ger> actually i dont think i will manage the munin stuff in the next 4 days... Ganneff if you could i'd be thankful.

19:38:40 <moray> darst should have news, but he seems to have been abducted 19:38:45 <darst> budget 19:39:02 <darst> our current "balances" are here: 19:39:03 <darst> http://rkd.zgib.net/http/debconf/accounting-balances.txt 19:39:16 <darst> that should list how much we have recieved in each account, and how much is pledged 19:39:30 <darst> we don't have any more information on actual costs 19:39:35 <h01ger> darst, please add morays+my trip to that. numbers off-meeting 19:39:36 <darst> what we might have to spend ourselves 19:39:41 <darst> ok, will do 19:39:50 <h01ger> thank you! 19:40:17 <darst> I checked that a few days ago with sponsors-table 19:40:28 <moray> and it matched, or not? 19:40:31 <h01ger> great 19:40:39 <darst> it is updated from the table 19:40:54 <h01ger> why is our income from sponsor negative? 19:41:10 <darst> mentally imagine it positive, it's just the way the ledger works 19:41:19 <darst> (money goes from sponsors to our accounts) 19:42:06 <darst> (at least with these programs) 19:42:27 <moray> darst: any more to say? 19:42:36 <darst> I don't think so 19:42:45 <darst> I am trying to collect data and add it to spreadsheets/there 19:42:48 <moray> darst: it's worth considering what to do about govt-paid stuff 19:42:58 <moray> darst: traditionally it would just be off balance sheet 19:43:03 <darst> yeah 19:43:05 <moray> but if we're having lots of it, that's a bit silly 19:43:18 <darst> if I have a number I could mark it as paid directly from the gov 19:43:25 <moray> we may need to manage some (unlimited?) pot of govt money too 19:43:29 <moray> and direct spending etc. 19:43:48 <h01ger> we should at least try to count it 19:43:49 <moray> darst: well, it won't be outgoing from our accounts either 19:44:00 <darst> I can represent that in the ledger and have it searchable as "paid directly" and all 19:44:01 <moray> so I'm not sure it belongs in the same system, but yes we should be tracking it somehow 19:44:08 <moray> ok 19:44:33 <moray> anyway, just raising the issue now, as I don't think we should fall back on ignoring that spending for our records 19:44:43 <h01ger> aehm. about the last topic, registration process. we should plan^wdiscuss deciding sponsorship today, so that we can start working in 9 days. 19:45:03 <h01ger> maybe just make up another meeting date just for this 19:45:12 <moray> #topic Travel sponsorship 19:45:24 <h01ger> or maybe Ganneff can lend us some energy + work here too ;) 19:45:29 <moray> deciding travel sponorship, you meant? 19:45:34 <Ganneff> http://paste.debian.net/116567/ (btw, thats the scriptset we have) 19:45:35 <h01ger> yes 19:45:43 <h01ger> and registration^wfood+accom 19:45:49 <moray> h01ger: right 19:46:07 <Ganneff> huh. i COULD run such a process as i did in the past. if thats (or something along it) is what we want. 19:46:08 <moray> h01ger: on both it must logically be possible to start now *even if* the deadline didn't happen yet 19:46:13 <Ganneff> how soon? 19:46:19 <Ganneff> well. first you need a team :) 19:46:23 <h01ger> Ganneff, deadline ends may 19th 19:46:28 <h01ger> we have a team on the wiki 19:46:33 <h01ger> but we need a team leader 19:46:41 <h01ger> pushing the team and making it work ;) 19:46:54 <h01ger> ie, i'm on the team but i cant do this 19:46:55 <moray> Ganneff: yes, I think the same again would work well 19:47:00 <h01ger> yes 19:47:23 <Ganneff> uh. fine. 19:47:37 <moray> Ganneff: if we get too many locals, we will also need some prioritisation of people for rooms in the main hotel 19:47:37 * h01ger bows to Ganneff! :) 19:47:43 <Ganneff> "Travel bursaries" - wtf is bursaries? 19:47:46 <moray> (e.g. matching /debian.org/ 19:48:05 <nattie> Ganneff: it's like a scholarship but without the scholarliness 19:48:08 <moray> Ganneff: 'bursaries' is what people called outgoing sponsorship to try to avoid the ambiguity between ingoing and outgoing 19:48:11 <Ganneff> and the names there arent really what we had in the past for a team 19:48:28 <moray> Ganneff: the wiki page just has people who volunteered I think 19:48:29 <Ganneff> that are possible team leaders (and partly participants), but the actual rating should be done by many more and more diverse people 19:48:53 <moray> Ganneff: I agree that getting some more 'external' volunteers makes sense, I'm happy for you to push that as the team leader 19:48:54 <Ganneff> right, so i can go around and ask the usual set of debianites around the world to "volunteer" some time? 19:49:03 <h01ger> please 19:49:13 <h01ger> probably ask on -team or -project 19:49:18 <Ganneff> ok. fine. so dc7/8 style again. will do, will ask around, will report to -team 19:49:33 <Ganneff> then a date, then rate rate rate, then decision, then lots of spam mails 19:49:34 <moray> great 19:49:35 <Ganneff> more or less 19:49:44 <h01ger> wunderbar! 19:49:53 <moray> #topic Coordination 19:50:02 <Ganneff> (i do need to earn my own monesy (and possible my girls too), right? :) ) 19:50:21 <h01ger> eparse 19:50:29 <moray> h01ger: he wants money to pay for girls 19:50:30 * nattie hands Ganneff an apostrophe 19:50:44 <nattie> i didn't think geeks believe in girls 19:51:01 <moray> nattie: (the above was a joke but) do you not follow Planet? 19:51:01 <h01ger> Coordination of what? 19:51:02 <Ganneff> nattie: somehow she doesnt run away screaming 19:51:15 <moray> h01ger: I'm not sure, though it's possible I added the topic 19:51:28 <moray> I think it may be about "we have people who volunteered to do stuff but we never contacted back" 19:51:40 <moray> and "we have too much work with a few people not-getting-round to doing it" 19:51:42 <h01ger> hm 19:52:01 <h01ger> we also had a meeting planned which never happened, but thats probably another topci 19:52:04 <moray> also of course that AbsintheSyringe needs to delegate more things to other locals :) 19:52:27 <moray> instead of trying to take too many tasks himself, we already told him to concentrate on *coordination* instead 19:52:28 <AbsintheSyringe> I will 19:52:31 <moray> AbsintheSyringe: yay! 19:52:36 <AbsintheSyringe> once these "big" things pass 19:52:36 <AbsintheSyringe> :) 19:52:44 <moray> but, let's leave this for now 19:52:51 <h01ger> what big things are left? 19:52:56 <h01ger> except the big conf ;) 19:52:59 <AbsintheSyringe> h01ger, none 19:53:02 <AbsintheSyringe> after you check it out 19:53:05 <AbsintheSyringe> it's all left for them 19:53:13 <moray> #topic Talks team progress 19:53:14 <h01ger> eparse 19:53:22 <moray> do we have a talks team leader? 19:53:23 <AbsintheSyringe> oh btw 19:53:28 <AbsintheSyringe> I was on Debian health check today 19:53:32 <h01ger> moray, i dont think so 19:53:35 <Ganneff> moray: gwolf? 19:53:42 <h01ger> AbsintheSyringe, there is any other business later :) 19:53:47 <AbsintheSyringe> and we kinda agreed we should talk more about that topic on DebConf 19:53:51 <moray> Ganneff: I'm happy if he is the talks team leader, but I just don't know the answer 19:53:57 <AbsintheSyringe> h01ger, ok, that keyword "talks" got me highlighted :) 19:54:08 <Ganneff> moray: its the only one i see regularly writing mails about talks 19:54:13 <Ganneff> and who asked in here about status 19:54:24 <blarson> gwolf has been leading talks team 19:54:25 <h01ger> biella said here she reviewed some submissions 19:54:30 <moray> #action gwolf is talks team leader (whether he likes it or not) 19:54:35 <nattie> haha 19:54:42 <h01ger> :) 19:54:45 <moray> #topic Any other business/next meeting 19:54:52 <blarson> submissions are being reviewed, poll for talk team meeting later this week 19:55:05 <moray> blarson: sounds good 19:55:10 <h01ger> #info he could ask biella or other people for co-leading 19:55:15 <h01ger> blarson, cool! 19:55:35 <nattie> biella does have the advantage of being an actual academic 19:55:45 * h01ger is happy about invisible progress which has now become visible :) 19:56:33 <moray> next meeting - ? 19:56:52 <nattie> do we continue in the fortnightly rhythm? 19:57:08 <moray> probably, just listening for any dissent really 19:57:21 <moray> also depends if there is internet in Bosnia :) 19:57:28 <h01ger> :) 19:57:54 <moray> #info Next meeting in two weeks: 24 May 2010 19:57:55 <AbsintheSyringe> I heard rumors there is :D 19:58:04 <AbsintheSyringe> while you're in Banja Luka?

19:58:35 <h01ger> think so 19:58:42 <h01ger> AbsintheSyringe had something about health check 19:58:45 <AbsintheSyringe> yea 19:58:52 <AbsintheSyringe> was on Debian Health check 19:58:55 <AbsintheSyringe> on UDS 19:58:58 <Ganneff> ok. pentabarf updated. that is, i moved from dc10 to dc11 for it. i have NO idea if we added fields in penatabrf. if so i miss on them 19:59:03 <h01ger> what is DHC? 19:59:13 <AbsintheSyringe> and what we agreed was that to improve the situation is to have talk about these things on DebConf 19:59:17 <h01ger> Ganneff, you mean munin? 19:59:18 <moray> Ganneff: did you archive the old one?
