Since only insiders can write, there are difficulties in promoting it. 13:10:06 <pwaring> #topic Accommodation 13:10:33 <pwaring> other than moving accomodation (last time), is there anything to say on this? 13:11:10 <jmkim> hotel and dorm rooms were allocated for us, next week we will pay and it will be surely confirmed 13:11:32 <jmkim> no other things for now 13:11:33 <MinseokJang[m]> Giyeonbang[m]: We can send email to offices of Computer Science of each university for advertising promotion 13:11:45 <pwaring> #topic Swag 13:12:03 <pwaring> there are some questions on the agenda, I'll do them one at a time 13:12:21 <pwaring> 1. Do we need volunteer t-shirts (as per: https://salsa.debian.org/debconf-team/public/data/dc24/-/merge_requests/14 ) 13:12:55 <pwaring> (I guess also are volunteers / staff the same thing) 13:13:01 <DLange> I don't think we ever had them at a DebConf, hence I asked 13:13:21 <DLange> we typically do video shirts for video team and its volunteers 13:13:31 <jmkim> I guess we need, for voluteer which is non-video team related 13:13:39 <MinseokJang[m]> MinseokJang[m]: Or, we can send official document (gong-mun in Korean) to each universities 13:13:40 <DLange> and staff shirts for local team and the global team members 13:13:49 <jmkim> e.g. bar helpers, front desk helpers? 13:14:16 <DLange> front desk would be staff so attendees can identify them easily 13:14:29 <Giyeonbang[m]> MinseokJang[m]: The reach rate is not high, but... please take care of writing and sending it. 13:14:40 <pwaring> so the question is, are there any 'volunteers' who are not video team and not staff? 13:14:58 <jmkim> bar will have 13:15:05 <akashsanthosh[m]> Hoi (late) 13:15:11 <changwoo[m]> we certainly had volunteer tshirt in previous DCs. there are artworks 13:15:13 <jmkim> and catering needs some afaik 13:15:23 <DLange> and you want to do a complete size distribution of yet another color of T-Shirts just for that jmkim? 13:15:36 <youngbin[m]> o/ 13:16:01 <DLange> changwoo[m]: https://wiki.debian.org/DebConf/T-Shirts in 2009 and previous 13:16:06 * jmkim[m] uploaded an image: (72KiB) < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/v3/download/matrix.org/KsOeetPOgtrCcRPSGumKoWFj/image.png > 13:16:09 <Giyeonbang[m]> MinseokJang[m]: That is the best way. :) If we collect the recipients, I will help you write the official document. 13:16:45 <akashsanthosh[m]> Staff is orga and global team right. And volunteers on videoteam is video team 13:16:50 <jmkim> DLange: Yup we will have, 3~8 for each size 13:16:55 <akashsanthosh[m]> Other volunteers are volunteers 13:17:00 <pwaring> in DC23 we had staff (teal), volunteer (red), attendee (yellow), video team (green) 13:17:06 <pwaring> based on the photo 13:17:19 <changwoo[m]> is that wiki authentic? there are artworks in previous DCs git. 13:17:31 <pwaring> https://aigarius.com/blog/2023/09/17/debconf23-photos/ 13:17:55 <jmkim> https://salsa.debian.org/debconf-team/public/data/dc23/-/tree/main/artwork/t-shirt 13:18:06 <akashsanthosh[m]> iirc, last time staff tshirt was in DC NY 13:18:07 <jmkim> Yes, we already have "volunteer" t-shirts in dc23 13:18:18 <changwoo[m]> if volunteer tshirt is no-use it's ok to drop it. Local team didn't invent it. 13:18:22 <pwaring> ok, then having them again doesn't seem like a major problem? 13:18:36 <pwaring> presumably we know the volunteers in advance so can print the right number / sizes 13:18:43 <DLange> nah, it just makes logistics more complicated 13:19:26 <DLange> "we need a ~L or 3XL size bar runner please, the other T-Shirts are out" 13:20:27 <DLange> pwaring: we do not know the volunteers up front, we know taffit will do bar shifts, so you can ask him for his T-Shirt size and print a special edition :) 13:20:41 <dprevot> 2XL 13:20:55 <urbec> beer shirts :D 13:21:02 <jmkim> DLange: do you mean, for volunteer, we do not need 4XL, 5XL and other fitted-cuts 13:21:13 <DLange> you do not need volunteer shirts at all 13:22:08 <DLange> print more attendee shirts, people like to have one to switch that doesn't stink 13:22:16 <DLange> much better investment of the money 13:22:18 <MinseokJang[m]> <Giyeonbang[m]> "Minseok Jang: That is the best..." <- Is there any official poster of DebConf24 like this? https://www.kreonet.net/fatt/editor/f35e525f-3756-48e8-9377-ccea56db715e.jpg 13:22:22 <jmkim> ok, then we can drop it. any other opinions? 13:22:30 <pwaring> if we don't know hte numbers we'll have to drop it 13:22:46 <pwaring> I assume at DC23 they either knew or guessed very well 13:23:11 <pwaring> let's drop it, as we don't want to spend lots of time discussing t-shirt colours and names 13:23:32 <changwoo[m]> Before nattie said specifically we need volunteer ones. just make a decision of dropping it or not 13:23:34 <DLange> MinseokJang[m]: no, we had no printed agenda / posters like that in India 13:24:00 <Giyeonbang[m]> MinseokJang[m]: I will be chat on #debconf-kr channel, after meeting. 13:24:04 <DLange> MinseokJang[m]: but - personally - I think this is a good idea, esp. for outreach in your local universities 13:24:55 <jmkim> changwoo: oh yeah, nattie let us to do not forget the volunteer shirts, 13:25:18 <jmkim> so we need to ask nattie's opinion first and then have a dicision will be better ig 13:25:31 <DLange> yes, do that 13:25:38 <pwaring> ok, let's ask nattie outside this meeting 13:25:44 <jmkim> Yup 13:25:47 <DLange> and may be bring up that discussion three month ago 13:25:48 <pwaring> #agreed local team to ask nattie about volunteer t-shirts 13:25:49 <DLange> next time :) 13:26:08 <pwaring> next question was fitted t-shirts, which apparently can't be done locally? 13:26:15 <pwaring> or at least using the chosen supplier 13:26:37 <jmkim> we found one supplier which can supply it today 13:27:00 <pwaring> ok, so that's no longer an issue then? 13:27:07 * jmkim[m] uploaded an image: (169KiB) < https://matrix.org/_matrix/media/v3/download/matrix.org/rtCdBJAfCKvyNfJwrbzhfhwC/image.png > 13:27:18 <DLange> great 13:27:27 <jmkim> fitted cut looks quite fitted than we think 13:27:30 <pwaring> #info fitted t-shirts can now be printed locally 13:27:35 <jmkim> It would be smaller than normally we think 13:27:38 <weepingclown[m]1> o/ 13:27:52 <DLange> jmkim: it is typically -1 size compare to straight cut 13:28:01 <pwaring> next question was about a final design of logo prints to review 13:28:10 <jmkim> :S 13:28:12 <DLange> so a given person could wear fitted M or straight S 13:28:29 * weepingclown[m]1 won't be able to stay because he has a class, but will catch up later 13:28:38 <jmkim> Front: https://salsa.debian.org/debian-kr-team/DebConf/issues/-/issues/79#note_503446 13:28:42 <jmkim> Back: https://salsa.debian.org/debian-kr-team/DebConf/issues/-/issues/79#note_500184 13:28:57 <DLange> jmkim: the sizes you got from me in PM have been adjusted to account for fitted / straight cuts already 13:29:54 <jmkim> DLange: great, good to know 13:30:03 <pwaring> t-shirt designs look good 13:30:12 <pwaring> do we need to say anything more on that now?# 13:30:41 <jmkim> DLange: we have broken logo "Matanel" in our webpage, today we found 13:30:51 <DLange> I'd still like a non-broken SVG to review 13:31:01 <jmkim> (which was from dc20) 13:31:07 <DLange> the ones in the thread jmkim linked are all broken one way or the other 13:31:38 <pwaring> ok can we fix / address that outside of the meeting? 13:31:43 <DLange> (they have been made with Serif on a Mac, so will not be safe to use for printing unless the shop uses the same) 13:31:51 <DLange> sure 13:32:12 <pwaring> #agreed t-shirt design SVGs to be checked for print-safe 13:32:12 <jmkim> surely 13:32:17 <pwaring> #topic Day trip 13:32:38 <jmkim> https://wiki.debian.org/DebConf/24/DayTrip 13:33:12 <pwaring> looks like it's all in hand, do we need to say anything about them at this point? 13:34:10 <jmkim> Yes, I have some, 13:35:44 <jmkim> Do we need traveler's insurance? if we need, we have to collect {name, birthday, passport number, gender} for all the day trip attendees 13:36:28 <jmkim> *travel insurance 13:37:12 <pwaring> I think that depends on what Korea requires as much as anything else 13:37:26 <jmkim> if we can, we can gather the infos within the "self-paid system" 13:37:33 <jmkim> *if we need 13:37:45 <pwaring> probably best to ask tumblingweed about that when he is back? 13:37:58 <DLange> most countries require their foreign travelers to have a health-insurance when coming in 13:38:25 <DLange> check what Korea mandates first and only if we will have people without health insurance, please get us one 13:38:36 <DLange> no need for double insurance 13:39:03 <pwaring> #action local team to check requirements for day trip insurance 13:39:20 <pwaring> #topic Sponsors & fundraising 13:39:42 <pwaring> I'm guessing as we're close to the start date now, and past the swag deadline, we're probably not going to get any more sponsors? :) 13:40:13 <DLange> well, we can always hope but not likely, you are correct 13:41:08 <pwaring> #topic Budgeting 13:41:19 <pwaring> anything that we need to say on the budget? (hopefully mostly finalised now...) 13:41:40 <pwaring> Cheese and wine was going to be added to the ledger 13:42:22 <jmkim> yes, for now it is finilised, I will ask to dpl 13:42:49 <pwaring> #action final budget to be sent to DPL 13:42:52 <jmkim> (DLange: about the insurance, I will re-check, but for now it seems, we need. Short travelers will do not have health-insurance in Korea) 13:43:03 <pwaring> ok I think that's everything for DC24 13:43:08 <pwaring> #topic DebConf 25 13:43:35 <pwaring> last time we said update at the end of June re: status 13:44:47 <akashsanthosh[m]> DLange: *crickets 13:46:35 <DLange> akashsanthosh[m]: hm? 13:46:50 <santiago> no news yet about DC25's venue 13:46:51 <DLange> I'm not on the DC25 team. At least the last time I checked :o) 13:47:23 <akashsanthosh[m]> *crickets chirping. Normally DLange puts it. This time I did 13:47:29 <pwaring> #topic Meeting schedule 13:47:40 <pwaring> next meetings will be 9th July, 16th July 13:47:50 <pwaring> then it will be DebCamp and there are usually daily in-person meetings 13:47:55 <pwaring> #topic AoB 13:47:56 <pwaring> anything else? 13:48:38 <pwaring> ok, thank you all for coming and see you next week! 13:48:39 <pwaring> #endmeeting
