12:08:16
a Flock DEI quiz is also a nice one
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:08:22
with some giveaways >
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:08:23
do u submit that through the cfp or is it more informal in the evening?
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:08:36
like it was done in Waterford?
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
12:09:17
last year all the sessions were submitted through the cfp tbh
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:09:40
ah i see
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:10:09
Amita Sharma: do you mean at Cork? I cant remember đ
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:10:24
yes
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:10:56
Aoife did it
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:11:17
do we have what was submitted for back then? We could tweak it and submit that - the cfp closes soon
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:11:52
right
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:11:52
or do you think aoife will submit that đ
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:11:55
we need to act fast
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
12:11:56
https://flock2023.sched.com/event/1PbkU/fedora-pub-quiz-flock-edition
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:12:06
I don't think she will have time tbh
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:12:08
we can leave it at the workshop you guys submitted?
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:12:16
but we can always ask her
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:12:44
I would say - let's submit it
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:12:50
it is better to keep it empty
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:13:05
it is better to submit than not
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:13:11
But... here is a thing
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:13:18
I am not 100% sure of my travel this year
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:13:35
Visa is tricky for me to get this year
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:13:49
oh no âšī¸
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:13:52
due to my passport expiry and also due to my other travels
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:14:19
so.. I will not own it or submit it with someone else
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
12:14:25
oh no âšī¸
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:14:28
I would say Emma and Jona - you both can do it?
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:15:12
all other submissions I did is - with someone as co=speaker
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:15:18
because of this reason
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
12:15:40
Emma Kidney do you think we can manage it? đ
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:16:00
Jona Azizaj (she/her): I dont know đ what do you think?
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:16:16
lol
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
12:16:19
I'm not 100% sure tbh
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:16:40
we can not do it then
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:16:52
ok.. let's think offline
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:17:01
for now it is a workshop then
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:17:40
!info A DEI workshop has been submitted by Jona and Amita
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
12:17:42
it needs a lot of preparations đ
but let's decide after the meeting then
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:17:50
yeah
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:17:53
sure đ
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:18:07
!info we can think of a quiz but that needs a lot of prep, so we will think offline
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:18:14
moving to next one
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:18:54
!link https://gitlab.com/fedora/dei/home/-/issues/51
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:19:14
I am think should we have a hands-on working session for DEI team
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:19:32
so that DEI team can work on its rest of year goals and some of these tickets?
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:19:42
during Flock I mean
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
12:20:07
last year it was nice and helpful the hackfest actually
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:20:28
right
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:20:33
that's what we can submit
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:20:39
and it won't take a lot of prep
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:20:45
we have tickets to work on
<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:21:01
that sounds good actually
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:21:16
ok, any of you wants to take a lead for submission
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:21:22
and add 3 of us as submitters?
<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
12:21:38
when is the deadline?
<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:21:48

<@ekidney:matrix.org>
12:21:48

<@ami117:matrix.org>
12:21:54

<@jonatoni:fedora.im>
12:22:19
