01:07:32 #topic organize the amount of media still in-house a distribute accordingly 01:07:42 ie: does vwbusguy have some, etc. 01:07:50 i know what i have, but i also know there are a zillion events at the end of this month 01:07:59 #info #42 (organize the amount of media still in-house a dsitrute according) – FAmNA general trac - https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/42 01:08:06 question: could we tie this in with the freemedia group? 01:08:16 everything I had went in TX 01:08:19 no, they don't use pressed media 01:08:33 dan408-: not unless we really have to 01:08:43 just thought it was a good idea 01:09:22 can we focus on "this month's problems" before we get to other problems :) 01:09:25 ok as the person to propose this ticket was because OLF is at the end of the month and that would be a great place to distrute what we have left 01:09:47 * rbergeron knows that we have OLF, puppetconf, world maker faire, and grace hopper in the next month 01:10:01 plus multiple software freedom day events 01:10:22 I am guessing Scott has most of what was sent to him 01:10:32 maybe it would be good to have something like a shared google doc to tally the media availability or something? 01:10:35 so we need to konw who has media because I know i have probably 500+ pieces but I was planning on taking those to puppetconf, but what i have includes nb's stash and I need to send some of that back to him. 01:10:38 beyond that I can't even guess 01:10:56 i know how much i have 17 01:11:22 am i missing any other events? 01:11:23 and i need about 200 for OLF 01:11:38 * inode0 mentions he tried to get people to state in a ticket how much they had last release and got nowhere 01:11:44 inode0: yeah 01:12:08 I have maybe 20 to 30 live multi-desktop for SFD in a week,if any left over willl send on to who needs 01:12:20 * rbergeron goes to hail vwbusguy in other channel 01:12:36 or not 01:12:49 okay, so someone needs to get ahold of vwbusguy to see what he has 01:12:55 nb: do you have any other media or do i have all of yours 01:13:09 does anyone else have a significant quantity of media? 01:13:16 we generally can't be bothered with small amounts people have - we really just need to track the regional shipper supplies I think 01:14:19 I heard nb say he had some. 01:14:46 okay 01:14:57 perhaps mail to the famna regionals list? 01:15:00 nb said he had alot 01:15:02 i think leslie snagged enough from me for grace hopper (50 pieces maybe, she said the open source booth doesn't get a ton of traffic) 01:15:31 nb sent me a LOT about 2 weeks ago to linuxcon since my media was not with me, so i have my batch plus some of his batch. i odn't know if he has anything left, though 01:15:40 inode0: it sounds like mail is the way to go 01:16:09 rbergeron: i asked him yesterday he said he had alot 01:16:17 ok, let's move on and badger people outside the meeting 01:16:30 .famnaticket 40 01:16:31 +1 01:16:32 inode0: #40 (SFD-DFW_2012) – FAmNA general trac - https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/40 01:16:45 #topic SFD-DFW_2012 01:16:46 kk4ewt: ah, okay 01:16:53 #info #40 (SFD-DFW_2012) – FAmNA general trac - https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/40 01:17:30 masta: ?

01:25:59 there is one additional pass, quaid has expressed interest, dan408, if you want to talk to him about it or split days or something that would be kosher as well. 01:26:14 inode0: yes, he is, though i think he has a booth of his own to tend to there. 01:26:17 rbergeron: split days to do what exactly? 01:26:46 dan408: if one of you wants to do booth one day, or share days, or whatever. i might be able to get karsten an additional pass anyhow. 01:26:59 dan408: put your name in the ticket and i will sort it out post-meeting 01:27:01 i think more than 1 person should tend to the booth 01:27:03 * jds2001 will also man the booth as i can, obviously. 01:27:12 and yes i am very interested 01:27:13 inode0: though if cloudstack does not have a booth i will be stealing his help :) 01:27:18 jds2001: you local?

We did it at the hotel that we were all staying at. 01:45:17 i am not opposed to sponsoring a few folks an extra day if they are car-sharing and etc., or heck, if they want to come and help with other things that need help, be notetakers at fadna, etc. 01:45:23 shall we float the idea and see if key people can come one day early 01:45:24 01:45:32 inode0: sure 01:45:35 * nb could be there one day early 01:45:55 I suspect the person I'm coming with won't want to come early but I'll manage 01:46:10 I will not be able to attend, cant take the extra days 01:46:14 * jds2001 could be there, but i'm decidedly non-key in this endeavor :) 01:46:25 let me add something here 01:46:50 the day before FUDCon we would devote to stuff we can do without help from others 01:46:51 im car/hotel sharing 01:47:18 * rbergeron nods 01:47:23 define "without help from others" - administrative stuff, or what? 01:47:29 but we would still have some "FADNA" sessions during FUDCon too where others could pop in to help with things they are interested in too 01:47:33 or just event planning and things like that 01:47:54 so we might need 2 or 3 people to work on budget, that could happen during a FUDCon session 01:48:10 or the part where say ruth would be helpful could be 01:48:36 we can't cover everything on my wish list in one day anyway 01:49:12 * rbergeron nods 01:49:20 so I was thinking anyway one day devoted to FAmNA stuff and then important leftovers go to hackfests 01:49:46 i like that idea - use the day to do some solid planning and identify things to hack on the rest of the time we are there? 01:49:55 my point really was that award3535 and others who might be at FUDCon but not there early won't miss everything 01:50:14 h 01:50:17 ahhh 01:50:17 that is 01:50:30 who's in charge of agenda :) 01:50:51 we'll need to hammer that out but I have a few non-trivial things on my agenda :) 01:51:11 yeah 10 minutes left 01:51:12 * rbergeron grins 01:51:24 ok, I will open a thread on ambassadors list soon 01:51:39 #topic Open Floor 01:51:55 i love you all. that is all 01:51:55 * inode0 notes the meeting ends when the person running it ends it :) 01:52:09 +1 rbergeron 01:52:09 EOF 01:52:16 ok so the agenda will be driven by a tiket or a wiki page or what? 01:52:17 unless nb decides to end it earlier :) 01:52:25 * nb hides 01:52:53 masta: I don't know, some people like tickets, some mailing lists, some the wiki 01:53:20 lets see what we get on the mailing list and go from there 01:53:27 I think the wiki is the best way for this, IMHO 01:53:55 otay - we wait 01:53:59 well, i think it's a good idea to have a bit of debate on the list before starting to cement things on wiki 01:54:11 the first question is can people come a day early 01:54:18 yeah 01:54:51 and some like Mario we might need to email and be patient to hear back from 01:54:53 if the hotel in KS was like VA they will love more people a day earlier 01:55:01 but I know he is planning to come 01:55:08 good :) 01:55:44 ok, so we take the proposal of one day early to the mail list, and make a call for agenda items 01:55:52 I will have to see my schedule and availability of time off at that time 01:55:54 jds2001 still here? 01:55:54 or they'll hate us by the time we leave 01:56:03 dan408-: yeppers 01:56:53 I'd be happy to propose the one-day early thing in mail, do we add the call for agenda in the same msg? 01:57:34 I was planning to propose a few agenda items at the same time so people would have some idea what work might be happening at it 01:57:49 we could do that together 01:58:30 some likely could be done concurrently by different groups 01:59:13 ok so inode0 sends the email? 01:59:32 let's just talk after the meeting and work out how we'll proceed 01:59:41 um'kay 02:00:13 thanks again everyone for coming - I'm looking forward to meeting some new ambassadors at FUDCon 02:00:26 #endmeeting
