OR other emails on the Ambassador's list? 05:11:38 About regional delegates, 05:13:30 Does anyone have any inputs/comments ? 05:14:46 Hello...!?! 05:14:57 Regional could be issue, IMO. Creates small group possibilities. Cooperation across parts of APAC is a good thing, let alone Fedora-wide 05:15:32 MarkDude: ? 05:15:38 Regional issues almost seem to be as needed, and at those times could have an "owner" like in events 05:16:07 MarkDude: regional issues? 05:16:32 pjp: Long back we had plan to have two Treasurer so it will put out some burden from Izhar? 05:17:07 praveenkumar: I see, 05:17:09 Meaning it seems like pretty much any of the APAC contribs can help with new process. And that is perfect example, having a backup treasurer 05:18:13 praveenkumar: MarkDude backup treasurer won't result into having another credit card holder in APAC, it's mostly for process work. 05:18:14 praveenkumar: +1 a backup or extra person can make sure there are not bottlenecks, and might encourage more folks to try it, if they knew they were a backup helper (as needed) eof 05:18:50 praveenkumar: agreed. One card is enough, more for keeping track of things, and using pagure 05:19:16 praveenkumar: MarkDude Interested candidates please add comment to the ticket #234 05:20:41 Storyteller for example, just needs one person, but having a person know that others are willing to help with writing some content will make it less daunting 05:21:07 eof 05:22:05 Agreed, so nominated person should take lead and other contributor also come forward and help (so that only a single person not burned out with it). 05:23:01 True, 05:23:36 Interested candidates, please add comments to the ticket #234 05:23:48 I will ask around some more members to checkout this ticket and if interested then add name. 05:24:00 Okay 05:25:42 Next ticket ? 05:26:32 #topic ticket #229 F24 Swag preparation -> https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-apac/ticket/229 05:27:50 Last week I pinged various Ambassadors about their F24 media/swag requirements 05:27:59 their inputs are list -> https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-apac/ticket/229#comment:6 05:28:33 Please feel free to update it, we still have time 05:28:35 I can't find any information added to https://ethercalc.org/f24-dvd-apac 05:29:32 Oh gosh! 05:29:41 Not sure how did that happen, 05:30:10 pjp: yes I also didn't fine, I am sure I did update to etherpad. 05:30:37 Yes, many did 05:30:39 does ethercalc comes with history feature to revert any accidental change 05:30:49 isn't there revision history? 05:30:49 * pjp checking 05:31:24 The green circular arrow on the right shows empty logs 05:33:07 Okay, I'll request once again, maybe we should update it on the ticket or wiki, 05:33:15 This is the part that's confusing, doing.Next is awesome, yet we are not streamlined yet. Can fed-msg bus be used for this somehow? :D 05:33:23 #action pjp to collect F24 media /swag requirements again 05:34:03 MarkDude: For collecting media/swag requirement? 05:34:08 +300 for Cagayan de Oro 05:34:17 Philippines 05:34:46 Will be added to ticket, as well as ether (once sorted.) 05:35:03 MarkDude: Okay, Ie +300 DVDs; do they use DVDs often ? 05:36:08 200 for SFD, is September FY17?

I think he is offering to stay at friends if cost is too high, though for Gnome event, we could let him know he can go towards upper estimate if need be 05:55:17 pravins: Nope, since he is staying with friends. 05:55:23 right. 05:55:25 To stay at closer place 05:55:47 So accommodation cost should be Zero and travel cost should go up. 05:55:59 pravins: Yes, 05:56:01 +1 for pjp ticket update 05:56:12 +1 please make Accommodation cost Zero and increase travel cost. 05:56:28 Please add your votes to the ticket too. 05:56:45 sure. 05:57:26 #approved travel expense for ticket #235, NO accommodation expense, only travel. 05:57:48 Okay, we are almost at closing time, does anyone have any other topics ? 05:57:55 #openfloor 05:58:10 #topic open floor 05:58:54 praveenkumar: MarkDude yudocaa kereltis Please add your votes to the ticket #235 too. 05:59:07 pjp: i talked with Rupali for Banners and swag, she said will get on coming Monday 05:59:08 * MarkDude has one if there are not others wanting to speak 05:59:08 pjp, sure 05:59:14 once kushal return from RootConf. 05:59:19 Will coordinate for it. 05:59:22 pravins: Great!
