20:10:29 <ardian> nmilosev, Your ticket seems to have information regarding the release party
20:10:58 <nmilosev> ardian, yes, I think everything is there. To sum it up: we are having a release party/university event
20:11:05 <ardian> Maybe mitzie can help with the budget here ?
20:11:19 <nmilosev> People from my faculty were very open to the idea, so they are giving us the space
20:11:36 <mitzie> nmilosev, I'm afraid that you will have to bring down the costs a little bit
20:11:40 <nmilosev> They are even inviting some people too who are interested
20:11:58 <mitzie> The budget for the Release parties is not fixed yet
20:12:14 <nmilosev> mitzie, this is sort of a pessimistic estimation, most of the cost will be covering food/drinks
20:12:42 <nmilosev> I already spoke to the local shop and they are willing to let me return all the unused drinks so we minimize the cost
20:13:03 <nmilosev> And for the food, I'm going with the local pizza place which offers discounts to students
20:13:21 <mitzie> Could you make it with ~60e for now? And when the budget is fixed and we have money left, you can ask for more
20:13:52 <mitzie> I appreciate it nmilosev that you try to bring down the costs
20:14:04 <nmilosev> It will probably be a bit more than ~60e, we are expecting 30+ people/students
20:14:24 <giannisk> Unfortunately, as many of you have noticed, things have been extremely tight with the new budget,
20:14:40 <mitzie> Can we vote for 60 euros, and when I have more news in the upcoming days I'll get back to you
20:14:44 <nmilosev> But it's ok, I can pay for the extra cost, I really want this event to go smoothly
20:14:51 <nmilosev> Sure thing, thanks mitzie :)
20:15:22 <ardian> Time to vote!

20:18:54 <ardian> #link https://fedorahosted.org/emea-swag-tracking/ticket/580
20:19:28 <ardian> elioqoshi, Do you have anything else to add ?
20:20:00 <ardian> b10n1k, yes please ?
20:20:16 <ardian> elioqoshi, you will have to wait after b10n1k
20:20:37 <elioqoshi> Not much. It's kind of the same event with the same expectation of people attending, just at our hackerspace (not university). We will also have a cake apart the pizzas and drinks and probably a professional phorographer
20:20:44 <b10n1k> i guess it is too late but i think that we should have voted for the requested amount
20:21:46 <ardian> b10n1k, We did a vote on that ?
20:22:15 <b10n1k> i awas talking about the #579
20:22:27 <b10n1k> eof
20:22:43 <b10n1k> i guess it doesnt matter. i am just saying
20:22:44 <elioqoshi> ardian he meant on voting for 105 EUR as originally meant, instead of the new amount, I think
20:22:46 <elioqoshi> eof
20:23:15 <giannisk> was nearly impossible to vote for the initial amount, unfortunately, as we are very tight with the budget
20:23:36 <giannisk> let's focus now on #580
20:23:49 <b10n1k> go ahead
20:23:55 <ardian> alright
20:24:13 <ardian> mitzie, is ticket #580 ok with the budget ?
20:24:31 <ardian> The total cost of the event is 45 EUR
20:24:33 <mitzie> yes, we are ok, thanks ardian
20:25:03 <ardian> great, thanks mitzie

20:47:37 <b10n1k> any link or something
20:48:08 <ardian> You might want to search on the mailing list
20:48:27 <b10n1k> alright
20:48:29 <giannisk> b10n1k: I wouldn't identify them as "main" target groups, but they are certainly an important one
20:48:59 <ardian> But also contacting the guys from infra, on how our infrastructure works can be a point you can present on events
20:49:12 <ardian> there are many videos on YouTube regarding that.
