I asked what we need to lock, but no answer, and really I think it is dififcult and probably wrong 19:03:21 <PEB> *lurks* 19:03:28 <cate> We just ignore later change, if we cannot accomodate them 19:03:29 <madduck> okay, so let's say we don't lock… what happens when people make changes? how can we make sure that the relevant parties receive updates? 19:04:13 <madduck> rene, larjona: could you please also provide an update on the email text and PDF situation? 19:04:15 <cate> Should new people not be able to register? Or we give out no more food ? (accommodation is already blocked) 19:04:33 <cpt_nemo> cate: can you inform people that no more updates will be taken into account? 19:04:45 <larjona> I couldn't put time on this, but I have plenty of time tonight, so I'll advance it as much as I can 19:05:05 <madduck> cate: I think the issue is not that we need to close the party, but that we need to communicate updates to the venue, mainly. 19:05:05 <cate> It is already printed on both registration pge in summit, since weeks: 19:05:08 <larjona> I'm not sure where to store the ODT and PDF, maybe in a "docs" folder under the website? 19:05:28 <azeem> larjona: in git, I'd say 19:05:37 <madduck> larjona: for downloads, media.debconf.org (a git repo) would be best 19:05:37 <azeem> at least the template 19:05:50 <madduck> larjona: I can provide the URLs post-meeting, or someone else 19:06:04 <larjona> thanks madduck 19:06:14 <madduck> #info summit has not been locked, but it might not actually make sense. All we need is a way to ensure updates propagate to the right parties e.g. the venue 19:06:48 <madduck> cate: okay, let's not lock it, could you please provide details on how updates will be communicated? 19:06:55 <madduck> Post-meeting, not now? 19:07:14 <madduck> This does tie in with the data the venue needs from registration. I've jotted down the needed info at https://titanpad.com/HoiUGw22Pd 19:07:24 <cate> I can lock some fields, but you need to tell me what. I don;t think a entire freeze is usefull 19:07:27 <madduck> Could we get this done by the end of this week, and then also send the emails? 19:07:58 <madduck> cate: arrival/departure and probably the requested accom/food option 19:08:14 <madduck> with a note asking to contact registration@ in case of needed changes 19:08:17 <cate> new people need an arrival and departure 19:08:28 <madduck> oh, we can't lock just for modifications, only for everyone 19:08:41 <madduck> okay, then I think we can #agree not to lock and instead figure out a way to deal with changes? 19:09:12 <madduck> #action larjona to work on PDF tonight, will check template/result into Git (location tbd) 19:09:49 <madduck> the main question is how to keep the venue updated, cate. Can we figure this out after the meeting? 19:10:00 <cate> madduck: yes 19:10:26 <madduck> #action cate, madduck to figure out how to propagate updates from registration changes post-meeting, will send mail to list 19:10:31 <madduck> okay, then let's move on, shall we? 19:10:56 <madduck> #topic Fulfillment 19:11:07 <madduck> this is basically for any questions people might have 19:11:16 <madduck> we have 2 showcase booths and 6 companies at the job fair 19:11:23 <madduck> FSFE not counted 19:11:40 <madduck> so I think this makes for a nice, spacious experience and I am personally happy that we didn't get much more. 19:12:16 <madduck> #info we have 2 showcase booths (excl. FSFE) and 6 companies at the job fair, which is not too much and will probably be quite nice. 19:12:22 <madduck> any questions about the whole fairs thing? 19:12:28 <azeem> 1-2 more either way wouldn't have hurt but oh well 19:12:49 <madduck> right, but this being the first time, I think we did well. 19:13:00 <azeem> *nod* 19:13:16 <madduck> alright, I'll move on, if there are questions, I suggest to mail the list 19:13:19 <madduck> #topic Attendee information 19:13:25 <azeem> about the website, I think we should add further information to openweekend 19:13:29 <azeem> oh well, later 19:13:36 <madduck> well, it's related 19:13:39 * RichiH is here now 19:13:42 * larjona in the phone, will try to follow ASAP 19:13:54 <RichiH> in the car on way home 19:13:56 <madduck> I think we need to ensure that the web/wiki are consistent and that information is mostly on the wiki, not on the web 19:13:58 <azeem> (as in, not just fulfillment, but other stuff like party etc.) 19:14:21 <madduck> it would be really awesome if someone took a bit of time to investigate the experience and plot some necessary changes. 19:14:36 <madduck> Now I was hoping indiebio would be here… ;) 19:15:33 <madduck> who could see themselves investing a bit of time here? There is free beer to be had!! 19:15:53 <larjona> I can invest time in reviewing wiki/website but I could not tell which info is more accurate 19:15:54 <azeem> well, I'm doing drive-by editing of the website 19:15:55 <madduck> #info Website and wiki need some love, might make sense to move content from XHTML to wiki so that attendees can care for it and it's easier to maintain 19:16:06 <larjona> Can I trust wiki is the accurate source? 19:16:22 <madduck> larjona: I think at the moment, the webpage information is altogether accurate 19:16:55 <madduck> but e.g. https://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf15/Welcome describes how to get to the venue etc. 19:17:17 <madduck> so either the wiki should link to the website, or the content be moved. And I think in the past we preferred the wiki over the webpage 19:17:31 <cate> larjona: considering how difficult is to have an account: yes 19:17:42 <cate> and we can watch all relevant pages, 19:17:45 <DLange> there is nothing wrong in the wiki either, it's just all a bit bits and pieces dispursed through multiple pages 19:17:53 <cate> watch = add in watch list 19:18:03 <madduck> not a happy attendee experience if the information isn't just all in one place 19:18:19 <larjona> Can I take dc14's wiki as reference 19:18:21 <larjona> ? 19:18:30 <madduck> and improve on it ;) 19:18:36 <madduck> larjona is also busy with the PDF, maybe someone else can also help? 19:18:41 <DLange> yes, esp. for the what-to-bring page 19:18:59 <larjona> It's more or less the same work, I see the PDF as a summary of the wiki isn't it? 19:19:06 <madduck> yes, you're right. 19:19:22 <azeem> I think somebody with local venue knowledge should edit what-to-bring 19:19:30 <rene> sorry for me not being very helpful right now :/ 19:19:34 <madduck> larjona: do ask indiebio, I think she makes a great "example attendee" in that she knows what's reasonable to expect and can help from that angle… 19:19:36 <azeem> IIRC right now it's mostly outside activity related 19:20:07 <azeem> do you need to bring soap, towels, whatever 19:20:13 <madduck> #action larjona will work to polish the wiki a bit, maybe with indiebio 19:20:24 <larjona> good 19:20:35 <madduck> azeem: it says about towel and I do assume people bring soap. Should we write toothbrush too? ;) 19:20:44 <madduck> and underwear!! 19:20:51 <azeem> madduck: fair enough 19:20:52 <cate> yes, we wrote it in past 19:21:01 <DLange> better safe than sorry :D 19:21:08 <madduck> Ok, I will look at the what-to-bring page 19:21:13 <madduck> shall we move on? 19:21:13 <azeem> maybe a what-to-not-bring is more useful, i.e. facilities at the venue 19:21:16 <azeem> hairdryer? 19:21:19 <madduck> nope 19:21:21 <madduck> noted 19:21:28 <nattie> DLange: what, you mean you don't have a stash of pink XXS g-strings for people to buy if they run out? 19:21:29 <Zugschlus> underwear can be bought at C&A, we have civilization this time 19:21:29 <madduck> #action madduck to make WhatToBring fool-proof 19:21:40 <madduck> next topic in 5 seconds… 19:21:43 <azeem> go 19:21:46 <madduck> #topic Content team 19:21:48 <DLange> nattie: shhhh! :) 19:21:49 <azeem> uh 19:21:55 <madduck> azeem: your stage… 19:22:05 <azeem> so, schedule has been more or less finalized 19:22:13 <nkukard> nattie, DLange only has XXXL 19:22:21 <azeem> I tried to query maxy and it seems t be at 1.0, i.e. TBA 19:22:41 <azeem> I've been drafting an d-d-a/d-a announce for this (and the featured speakers, see -team) for this week 19:22:47 <cate> The data should already be in summit 19:22:54 <azeem> cate: right, yes 19:22:57 <madduck> #info schedule is at 1.0, azeem is working on an announcement 19:23:02 <azeem> stellar job by maxy and cate I assume 19:23:07 <DLange> can we put it visible in summit then? 19:23:10 <cate> I'm working to get also a table in style of https://us.pycon.org/2015/schedule/talks/ 19:23:16 <rmayorga> it is already visible in summit DLange 19:23:34 <azeem> we should replace "Proposals" with "Schedule" 19:23:37 <cate> just that summit make it not so visible 19:23:42 <azeem> but I'm not sure how to change the summit side of the bar 19:24:00 <azeem> I think just linking to the summit page would be ok or will that break our website? 19:24:10 <azeem> let's figure that out afterwards 19:24:13 <azeem> rmayorga: anything from your side? 19:24:14 <madduck> nah, that's the way it works 19:24:15 <DLange> rmayorga: ack, thanks 19:24:24 <madduck> azeem and cate, can you do the s/Proposals/Schedule/ ? 19:24:35 <cate> where ? 19:24:42 <madduck> tab bar of website/summit template 19:25:09 <rmayorga> azeem: nothing from my side 19:25:27 <azeem> madduck: we'll figure it out 19:25:33 <madduck> #action azeem and cate to get Schedule integrated into website (tab bar, requires change in both XHTML and summit) 19:25:37 <madduck> thank you 19:25:38 <azeem> next? 19:25:39 <madduck> then next topic in 5 seconds 19:25:50 <madduck> actually, RichiH isn't here yet (in car still) 19:25:59 <madduck> I will skip his two topics and insert them later 19:26:04 <cate> madduck: done 19:26:09 <madduck> #topic Press release 19:26:25 <madduck> so the press release has not been sent, and that's entirely my fault 19:26:31 <RichiH> madduck: thanks; my connection is very slow atm 19:26:38 <madduck> It's mostly done, but I have not had the time at all to figure out where to send it 19:26:44 <madduck> would anyone be able to assist me here? 19:26:45 <azeem> I think we should send it now that the schedule is ready 19:26:48 <azeem> and openweekend is there 19:26:53 <madduck> yeah 19:27:00 <RichiH> for press, can we include teckids? 19:27:01 <azeem> and we have a semifinal list of companies attending the job fair 19:27:03 <madduck> meanwhile, the information base is better, so it's not all bad 19:27:07 <azeem> and childcare 19:27:13 <azeem> RichiH: is childcare.xhtml ready? 19:27:14 <DLange> no childcare 19:27:22 <madduck> #info Press release still pending, but more information is coming in, so it just gets better 19:27:32 <madduck> azeem: child care comes later. 19:27:37 <madduck> in agenda 19:27:57 <madduck> how about this: if you think of any channel to send this to, could you please drop me a mail? 19:28:19 <azeem> I think we should have childcare.xhtml ready and then link to it in the PR 19:28:22 <DLange> doesn't debian have a press distribution list? 19:28:30 <azeem> not waste a whole paragraph on it 19:28:38 <madduck> not sure but I will work with the press team 19:28:41 <madduck> azeem: yes, duly noted 19:28:48 <madduck> #info Please send madduck a mail with ideas you might have about where to send the press release 19:28:59 <larjona> DLange I don't know, I will ask 19:29:04 <DLange> thy 19:29:05 <madduck> #action madduck to translate the press release just before sending and will send it 19:29:20 <madduck> #action larjona to liaison to publicity team about a press distribution list 19:29:39 <madduck> okay, let's move on. skipping child care for now 19:29:46 <madduck> cate, ready for volunteer management?

19:30:27 <madduck> tassia: when RichiH gets to a proper connection 19:30:33 <cate> if you want some special job to be tracked, contact me. Else it will be used for video team stuffs 19:30:43 <tassia> last thing about PR 19:30:51 <tassia> is the text available somewhere? 19:30:57 <tassia> sorry if it was said before 19:31:02 <madduck> tassia: see the wiki minutes for the link 19:31:10 <madduck> the agenda there anyway 19:31:11 <tassia> madduck, thanks 19:31:22 <DLange> https://titanpad.com/201507-dc15-pr 19:31:29 <madduck> cate: so anyone could use this to publish tasks that need doing and we'd push this to our attendees regularly? 19:31:37 <azeem> the problem is that we edit it in german right now I thikn 19:31:56 <cate> madduck: I don't know. We must define how to use it. 19:31:57 <madduck> yeah, sorry, I just wrote it in German without thinking much 19:32:09 <madduck> cate: okay, can I #action then that you email the team about it? 19:32:34 <cate> hmm? 19:32:36 <larjona> I'm lost. What are you talking about? PR? volunteer? 19:32:43 <madduck> larjona: both! ;) 19:33:04 <madduck> cate: well, announce the tool to the team and how we're expected to make use of it? 19:33:05 <cate> madduck: I think minutes are ok. if people want task to be tracked, they can contact me. 19:33:28 <madduck> cate: what if suddenly you get dozens of such tasks? 19:33:29 <cate> I don't think we need to announce much, if we will use only for video-team or internally 19:33:43 <madduck> i can already think of a few 19:33:48 <cate> madduck: then teams will announce, but.. now... 19:33:55 <moray> cate: we need better routing of volunteers from front desk to actual jobs 19:34:05 <moray> cate: we tried a few things before, but without much success 19:34:17 <moray> I mean, the only thing that was working was very informal, nothing organised 19:34:36 <tumbleweed> moray: you talking about dc14 or historically, in general? 19:34:37 <moray> the video team/talk parts, which were more formal, did work fine 19:34:39 <cate> moray: I tool is not a magic, but we can try 19:34:40 <moray> tumbleweed: in general 19:34:50 <moray> cate: I don't know if the tool helps indeed 19:34:51 <madduck> #info a test instance of a volunteer managing system has been put up by cate who can add jobs. Nothing further has been formalised. 19:35:10 <moray> cate: I wouldn't expect the hypothetical volunteers to directly use any tool, the missing part is more human 19:35:15 * jmux did his first click in the task list... SyntaxError at /debconf15/volunteers/task/74/ 19:35:24 <tumbleweed> yeah, historically the video team has done content team jobs (like talkmeister) because the video team were the only active volunteers looking at schedules 19:35:42 <cate> jmux: right. it is the table schedule ;-) 19:36:19 <madduck> maybe it'd make sense to have a separate meeting about this for people interested to help and also figure out a way to use this? 19:36:50 <moray> madduck: right, probably some meeting on the topic to make a plan for debconf-time volunteer management, including use of this tool where appropriate 19:37:04 <madduck> moray: would you be willing to call it? 19:37:17 <madduck> or cate? 19:37:38 <cate> ok. we can do it 19:37:45 <cate> so a email is necessary 19:37:55 <moray> ok, I can discuss with cate later then 19:38:06 <madduck> #action cate to email dc-team about volunteer management, possibly a meeting will be set up with moray 19:38:08 <cate> jmux: now I removed the wrong code 19:38:19 <madduck> alright, moving on in 5 seconds… 19:38:24 <madduck> RichiH: are you here yet? 19:38:31 <madduck> #topic Day Trip 19:38:32 <jmux> cate: and someone needs to update the FAQ 19:38:53 <madduck> hvhaugwitz has done work tying the ideas into concrete schedules and busses have been organised 19:39:00 <madduck> #info hvhaugwitz has done work tying the ideas into concrete schedules and busses have been organised 19:39:07 <hvhaugwitz> status: speyer techic museum: confirmed, dilsberg: guided tour confirmed, boat tour open (will try again tomorrow), hiking/brewery open 19:39:13 <madduck> #info what's needed next is wiki pages for the options including signup lists/tables 19:39:13 <hvhaugwitz> details see wiki 19:39:18 <azeem> hvhaugwitz: great! 19:39:25 <cate> jmux: after the meeting, when we know how to answer 19:40:11 <madduck> I think it's okay to announce the day trip options formally at DebConf and then expect signups then, right? 19:40:22 <bremner> yes 19:40:23 <madduck> we can start earlier if we get it done earlier, but no rush. 19:40:29 <hvhaugwitz> can create pages similar to the ones for dc14 (https://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf14/DayTrip) 19:40:38 <madduck> esp. since the group sizes are limited 19:40:43 <madduck> hvhaugwitz: yeah, that'd be great 19:40:49 <cate> BTW you need to signup to really see much of volunteer power [personal and task schedule] https://summittest.debconf.org/debconf15/volunteers/signup/ 19:40:50 <moray> people's choices will depend on other's choices anyway 19:40:58 <hvhaugwitz> madduck: it would be better to start the signup before 19:40:59 <moray> so better to ask during debconf, yes 19:41:07 <hvhaugwitz> speyer asked for numbers one week in advance 19:41:10 <moray> ah 19:41:22 <madduck> #action hvhaugwitz to create wiki pages for the options. Once done, he should announce and ask for signups as he sees fit 19:41:37 <madduck> okay, any other questions? else moving on in 10s 19:41:52 <jmux> "pre-registration with number of attendees required one week before" for Technic Museum Speyer 19:41:52 <hvhaugwitz> what about the busses will they be paid 19:41:57 <hvhaugwitz> by debconf? 19:42:04 <madduck> I think so, yes 19:42:07 <madduck> budget has them 19:42:22 <madduck> but I think we collect entrance fees from people etc. 19:42:27 <hvhaugwitz> ok currently no questions from me at the moment 19:42:36 <madduck> #topic Conf dinner 19:43:03 <madduck> #info chairs approved 2 additional busses and they have been organised, so now we have 9 busses going back and forth until we're all at the restaurant 19:43:21 <madduck> #info loni has updated the menu slightly 19:43:47 <madduck> #info they do want numbers possibly before we have them all, given that not everyone arrives on saturday 19:44:02 <madduck> #info this might mean limiting the options (but still ensuring veggie etc.) 19:44:20 <madduck> #action madduck to check what to do about special food preferences once nattie compiled the info 19:44:26 <madduck> any questions? 19:44:34 <DLange> is any of the stuff vegan? nattie asked the other day for frontdesk to know. 19:44:35 <cate> madduck: could you provide the menus in german and in english? So people can prepare to choose 19:44:45 <madduck> cate: yes, will do 19:44:46 <azeem> madduck: what percentage of hikers do you forecast? 19:44:56 <madduck> #action madduck to provide menus ASAP (in english too) 19:45:06 * madduck sticks finger into wind… 19:45:15 <madduck> azeem: the working assumption for me has been about 10–15% 19:45:20 <madduck> i.e. 60 people 19:45:25 <azeem> sounds reasonable, yeah 19:45:42 <azeem> depending on weather ;) 19:45:45 <madduck> #info we're assuming ca. 60 people will hike the 5.5km 19:45:52 <madduck> #info depending on weather 19:46:00 <madduck> alright, moving on in 10s? 19:46:11 <madduck> RichiH: where are you? ;) 19:46:29 <madduck> (he has excused himself, so don't snarl at him when he comes!) 19:46:34 <madduck> #topic Room allocation 19:46:36 <DLange> git:debconf-team/dc15/frontdesk/DebConf_FrontDesk_registration_process.odg has the basic menu in German / English (not including all side dishes) 19:46:58 <madduck> #info marga allocated everyone to rooms, some changes are still happening. We are pretty much on the 350 average, which is great. 19:47:24 <madduck> #info If we stay below, we can upgrade some people at last minute to sponsored, I have informed bursaries about this.
