do we really need as much this time 02:05:55 we are ordering less 02:06:00 ok good 02:06:04 2500 multiarch live and 2000 multiarch install 02:06:20 total of 5k-ish i believe 02:06:30 because we have alot less events in the next 6 months 02:06:58 price was a little cheaper this time 02:07:02 jsmith-away, ping, media art? 02:07:20 nb: he is overseas 02:07:29 so ping design 02:07:39 media art is done 02:07:51 but i have to have jsmith's approval afaik before i can send it to the media company 02:08:14 he mentioned possible wording changes last thing i heard, but never said for sure 02:08:17 probable wont happen till next week 02:08:24 and i need to ping harish again 02:08:38 he was having trouble finding ams in redhat's system but spevack said he needed to look in the US supplier list 02:08:43 and spevack was going to email harish 02:09:47 so we have no po and we have no art 02:09:52 so media will be ordered....... RSN 02:11:54 anything else needs to be covered tonight 02:12:39 did we decide to not reorder clings? 02:13:00 * nb doesn't know that they are needed 02:13:10 only thing we said to order was balloons 02:14:04 anything else 02:14:24 I'm good 02:14:34 And so, we close. 02:14:36 #endmeeting
