Booklets? 15:08:53 <fcrippa> yep 15:09:03 <fcrippa> samuele and maria are working on that 15:09:08 <fcrippa> (...and tshirt) 15:09:34 <fcrippa> tshirt should be sent to the printing company late next week 15:09:46 <fcrippa> theory are ready, and we already have the quotation 15:09:51 <fcrippa> (2 sides, 2 color) 15:10:02 <fcrippa> 700 EUR for "light" tshirts 15:10:06 <fcrippa> 1100 EUR for "heavy" tshirts 15:10:11 <rbergeron> cool. 15:10:21 <rbergeron> is fudpub, etc. all set? 15:10:25 <fcrippa> I'm not completely sure about the status of the booklet 15:10:43 <fcrippa> I think it's almost ready, but it's better to double check with the designer team for that 15:10:52 <fcrippa> (I'll do that on monday probably) 15:10:55 <fcrippa> yep 15:11:08 <rbergeron> okay. 15:11:10 <fcrippa> fudput + fud for friday, saturday, sunday is already set 15:11:13 <rbergeron> What is outstanding at this point? 15:11:28 <fcrippa> we have time until 2 days to the event to pay the deposit for the food 15:11:31 * rbergeron has to go help kids for a second, i'll brb, feel free to continue talking 15:12:27 <fcrippa> ok 15:12:36 <fcrippa> I called the university 15:12:46 <fcrippa> (to be sure that everything is ok on that side) 15:13:04 <fcrippa> the administrative guys were back (from looooong vacation) 15:13:10 <fcrippa> and they confirmed that everything is fine 15:13:16 <fcrippa> rooms are booked and available for us 15:13:40 <fcrippa> They asked me to prepare (other!!!) paperwork, but nothing really urgent anyway 15:14:41 <rbergeron> okay. how is wireless at the university working? 15:14:44 <fcrippa> I think this is it 15:14:55 <fcrippa> I don't have any other particular news 15:14:59 <fcrippa> well 15:15:04 <fcrippa> that's a good question 15:15:14 <fcrippa> we have the wifi 15:15:22 <fcrippa> and it works perfectly for few people 15:15:44 <fcrippa> I heard some "rumors" about very bad performances when is very crowded 15:15:59 <fcrippa> but anyway "officially" we have free wifi in the university and in the hotels 15:16:17 <rbergeron> good. 15:16:26 <fcrippa> anyway in the university we're going to have access to the "guest" network 15:16:44 <rbergeron> okay. can we possibly put that info on the wiki and webpage? 15:16:45 <fcrippa> only few people will be allowed to use the 'private' network 15:16:47 <rbergeron> jus tso people know what to look for 15:16:57 <fcrippa> (require auth with a valid username of the university) 15:17:03 <fcrippa> that connection should be better 15:17:39 <fcrippa> so if someone needs a high-speed connection (maybe for streaming the event o things like that) wi can use that one 15:17:40 <fcrippa> ok, sure 15:17:53 <fcrippa> I'll do that during the weekend 15:21:00 <rbergeron> okay. 15:21:16 <rbergeron> um.... hmmm. 15:21:33 <rbergeron> so when is the date for ordering shirts? 15:21:39 <rbergeron> are we able to pay it remotely? 15:23:48 <rbergeron> and do we need to before they make the shirts? 15:35:57 <rbergeron> fcrippa? :) 15:43:22 <fcrippa> :-) 15:43:27 <fcrippa> I'm here sorry 15:43:35 <rbergeron> ;) 15:43:41 <fcrippa> unexpected conference call 15:43:45 * rbergeron nods 15:43:56 <fcrippa> (it's "office" time in EMEA) ;-) 15:44:17 <fcrippa> the tshirts company needs 2 weeks to print and delivery 15:44:36 <fcrippa> (probably less, but let's considerer the worse case) 15:44:38 <pandaconstantin> Hi 15:45:00 <rbergeron> when will office time be up?
