21:05:17 <sesivany> any announcements?
21:05:52 <sesivany> I've got some.
21:06:37 <sesivany> #info We have a draft of EMEA budget for the next fiscal year: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/EMEA/Budget:2016
21:07:06 <sesivany> you have the last chance to make chances to it, FAmSCo will have to approve it by the end of January.
21:08:06 <sesivany> you also have the last chance to add an event to this plan: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/EMEA/EventPlan:2016
21:08:15 <sesivany> the budget for events is based on this plan.
21:09:43 <sesivany> otherwise I don't have anything else to announce.
21:10:32 <sesivany> ok, next topic then...

21:14:04 <Levex> Thanks for that!
21:14:45 <sesivany> Levex: you're welcome!
21:14:48 <Levex> :-)
21:15:00 <sesivany> any other questions about requests?
21:15:48 <sesivany> if not, next topic!
21:15:58 <sesivany> #topic Ambassador's schedule
21:16:41 <sesivany> the F22 schedule has been published.
21:16:45 <sesivany> #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Schedule
21:17:03 <sesivany> as you can see the release date is May 19th.
21:17:47 <Mohamed_Fawzy> GooD
21:18:00 <sesivany> of course there might be delays, but FESCo is aiming to stick to the planned release date as much as possible.
21:18:26 <sesivany> for example we will not wait for features that get delayed.
21:18:59 <sesivany> that's all from me to the schedule.
21:19:10 <sesivany> any questions?
21:19:36 <Mohamed_Fawzy> i was plan for f21 release party
21:19:46 <Mohamed_Fawzy> i think it is late for that
21:20:27 <sesivany> Mohamed_Fawzy: why do you think it's late? I think it's still ok to do it now.
21:20:34 <sesivany> #topic Events
21:21:21 <Mohamed_Fawzy> i will plan for it i just finish exames today
21:21:35 <sesivany> ok, the next big event is FOSDEM.
21:21:46 <sesivany> it's just around the corner (next weekend).
21:22:32 <Levex> who's coming? :-)
21:22:42 <sesivany> if someone wants to join us and help us at the booth, we still have funds left.
21:22:44 <delhage> I'll be there
21:22:46 * giannisk will be around.
21:22:49 <sesivany> Levex: I'm :)
21:22:50 <andreasch> I will be there
21:23:14 <Mohamed_Fawzy> wish i can but it take much to get papers
21:23:37 <delhage> I was in Raleigh last week and got a pile of fedora stickers with me that I'm bringing
21:23:50 <delhage> or four piles...
21:23:51 <mitzie> I'll be at FOSDEM too
21:24:13 <sesivany> delhage: great!
21:24:19 <sesivany> FranciscoD|Uni: are you here?
21:25:02 <sesivany> I'm bringing a banner, table cloth, Fedora logo stickers, stickers of products, badges, pins.
21:25:18 <sesivany> and I will have new stuff!
21:25:23 <delhage> yay
21:25:37 <sesivany> physical Fedora badges for FOSDEM attendees.
21:25:45 <sesivany> as stickers
21:26:11 <sesivany> so not only can you collect them at badges.fedoraproject.org, but also on your laptop ;-)
21:26:21 <delhage> oh, swanky! :)
21:26:26 <sesivany> let's see how popular it will be :)
21:27:27 <sesivany> I may also bring flyers
21:27:40 <sesivany> but FranciscoD needs to finish them first
21:28:29 <sesivany> one week after FOSDEM, there is DevConf.cz
21:29:03 <sesivany> I published a list of Fedora focused talks there: https://eischmann.wordpress.com/2015/01/13/fedora-at-devconf-cz-2015/
21:29:19 <sesivany> #link https://eischmann.wordpress.com/2015/01/13/fedora-at-devconf-cz-2015/
21:29:42 <sesivany> there will be much more on Fedora-related technologies.
21:30:19 <sesivany> and we will have live streams from the main three tracks for those who cannot attend.
21:31:42 <sesivany> mitzie: can you please add more info about the Greek event here? https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/EMEA/EventPlan:2016
21:31:56 <sesivany> so that I can add it to the budget.
21:32:13 <sesivany> events that get funds need to be justified.
21:33:54 <mitzie> Nothing is planned yet sesivany, I will update the wiki when we have more information
21:34:37 <sesivany> mitzie: yeah, but I need at least an event owner.
21:34:58 <sesivany> mitzie: and you don't even have an idea when roughly the event should take place?
21:36:09 * delhage unfortunately needs to leave now
21:36:28 <sesivany> delhage: ok, see you at fosdem!
21:36:35 <mitzie> sesivany: Unfortunately nothing is planned yet, and I can't tell you for sure who will be the event owner because the city is not decided yet (usually the city rotates every year)
21:36:35 <delhage> sesivany: see you!
21:36:49 <sesivany> anything else to events?
21:37:49 <sesivany> #topic Openfloor
21:38:16 <sesivany> now you've got room to discuss other topics.
21:38:25 <FedoraUser> sesivany, you mentioned live streams for DevConf.cz, is there a link or it will be known through usual channels (Magazine, Planet, ...)?
21:40:45 <sesivany> FedoraUser: it will be available on the Youtube channel of Red Hat Czech. Unfortunately, we haven't found an open solution that would be at least remotely close to Youtube feature-wise.
21:41:10 <sesivany> FedoraUser: links will be published at the beginning of the conference at devconf.cz.
21:41:23 <FedoraUser> sesivany, cool, thanks
21:41:48 <sesivany> #link https://www.youtube.com/user/RedHatCzech/
21:42:17 <sesivany> FedoraUser: if you don't catch a talk on the stream, they will be immediately available as videos.
21:42:49 <sesivany> that's a nice feature of Youtube that you can create videos from streams and immediately publish them.
21:42:54 <FedoraUser> sesivany, oh, that is really neat
21:44:27 <sesivany> if there is not anything else to discuss, I'll end the meeting in one minute.
