Who essentially said, go talk to cat, as she has the funding power. 19:07:33 Now, I don't know cat, but I know many other people do. 19:07:57 Cat was not at OLF, and was elsewhere. 19:08:17 Yeah, I gathered that from David too 19:08:34 rbergeron: Do you want to send some email to Cat when we have the prospectus completed? 19:08:51 I can, though I don't know her, and will need her email address which I can probably find in like 3 seconds of googling. :) 19:10:20 rbergeron: *nod 19:10:32 But am happy to do so, once prospectus is done. 19:10:36 This is a case where it would be helpful to make contact from a non-RHer 19:11:22 rbergeron: I'll set that ticket to you with some explanation then, kosher? 19:11:46 yessir! 19:13:11 Awesome! 19:13:16 Sorry, too many pings going on :-) 19:13:33 #action stickster to assign ticket 48 with update 19:14:14 #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/49 (GoDaddy sponsorship) 19:14:17 inode0: Anything to report here? 19:14:42 no, but they did say to expect it to take 3 weeks before seeing any reaction 19:15:04 so there was a non-automated response? 19:15:12 * inode0 has one non-agenda item to slip it when appropriate 19:15:55 inode0: Fair enough -- should I set a date in the ticket to check back? 19:16:04 i.e. 3 weeks + a bit from some date? 19:16:14 it has been one week iirc now 19:16:26 * rbergeron nods 19:17:57 inode0: Cool, I'll set the ticket to check back in two weeks 19:18:02 it is ok to leave it on the agenda - in two weeks I'll poke again if I don't hear back before then 19:18:10 #action stickster Set ticket 49 to check back in 2 weeks for status 19:18:30 cool 19:18:41 #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/43 (Underage patrons at Sparky's Den) 19:18:50 I suck and have been buried, I will follow up on it today, plz mark it for an update at next week's meeting. :) 19:18:55 rbergeron: This one's yours. I know you were at OLF this past weekend :-) 19:19:11 No problem, I understand. It's what I would call "important, not urgent for this week" 19:19:15 * rbergeron agrees 19:19:25 rbergeron: Go ahead and mark it -- I'll do inode0's above 19:19:33 * jsmith updated his ticket 19:19:34 btween olf and being sick i've just been somewhat out of commission. 19:19:36 * rbergeron goes to update it 19:19:47 #action rbergeron Update ticket for status next week, 9/21 19:20:00 #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/19 (Internet pipe at hotel) 19:21:17 #info stickster found contact and relayed to rrix's friend Zach and jsmith to relay to his guy 19:21:34 I've updated the ticket -- jsmith, I presume you haven't heard back about when the on-site survey would happend 19:21:36 *happen 19:21:37 #info jsmith has relayed contact information to his guy 19:21:42 Beauty 19:21:47 No, still don't know when survey will happen 19:23:36 jsmith: OK, no worries. I've set a status to check back 19:23:45 Thanks 19:23:49 * jsmith will be right back 19:23:52 #action We'll check back about an on-site survey in two weeks 19:24:00 #undo 19:24:00 Removing item from minutes: 19:24:05 #action We'll check back about an on-site survey in one week 19:24:25 #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/47 (Prospectus) 19:24:33 I know that herlo wrote a draft for this 19:24:39 I didn't get a chance to review it until I was at OLF 19:25:01 * rbergeron still isn't htat far :\ 19:25:10 But I sent some review points, and wanted to talk about it here 19:25:19 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon:Tempe_2011_logistics#Event_Sponsorship 19:26:02 #info there are two documents sketched out, a prospectus and a sponsorship offering 19:26:12 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon:Tempe_2011_prospectus <-- Prospectus 19:26:25 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon:Tempe_2011_sponsorships <-- Sponsorship offerings 19:26:58 I thought maybe these documents could be combined -- they're both very short and if I were being asked, I'd want all the info in front of me quickly. 19:27:08 * rbergeron nods 19:27:16 On the other hand, I don't know if herlo is planning to put these into some other format as two docs to be printed out. 19:27:42 I'm not sure about the "focus" section in the first document. FUDCon normally doesn't have a single focus, since we have a lot of people from different teams there. 19:27:46 (That's more like a FAD honestly.) 19:28:03 Did you see herlo's reply? 19:28:05 We could easily have bullet points, though, about the things we plan to do at FUDCon 19:28:14 inode0: I haven't -- wall2wall meetings 19:28:36 inode0: URL? 19:29:15 http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/fudcon-planning/2010-September/001121.html 19:29:43 * inode0 too slow, sorry 19:30:27 Thanks guys :-) 19:30:34 Ah, good reading 19:32:44 All right, probably too much to cover here in IRC 19:32:51 * stickster sorry for wasting meeting time reading 19:32:58 I love Clint's response and want to keep that going on the list. 19:33:07 I agree we could have the prospectus done shortly. 19:33:13 i think so. 19:33:13 I'd like to work on that after the meeting closes if possible 19:34:48 Okay! 19:34:51 rbergeron: I think I'm going to move that we close up a bit early and work on that. 19:35:02 that's fine by me. 19:35:03 * inode0 has one short item 19:35:11 We have one other ticket I opened as a reminder (https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/50 -- create welcome packet) 19:35:15 which is very much non-urgent 19:35:17 are we covering the ticket on the welcome packet today? 19:35:18 ah 19:35:22 * rbergeron is too slow now 19:35:22 Let's go to AOB for inode0 19:35:32 #action Continue to whittle on prospectus on list and IRC after this meeting 19:35:36 #topic AOB (all other business) 19:35:42 Go inode0! 19:35:43 * rbergeron will be happy to start pecking away on the welcome packet 19:35:44 :-) 19:35:48 ok, I got the proofs today for the lanyards 19:35:54 rbergeron: I think first things first -- prospectus is more urgent 19:35:58 * rbergeron agrees 19:35:59 inode0: Oooo lanyards 19:36:07 they look great, mizmo approved the art/logo stuff 19:36:09 i just meant in my oh so copious spare time :) 19:36:18 inode0: Is there a jpg somewhere we can look at? 19:36:19 oh noes, I only have 534543 lanyards already ;-) 19:36:27 biertie: But these will have a Fedora logo 19:36:45 ok, that makes them with 500% awesomeness ;-) 19:36:47 stickster: I can make it available again but it is just a proof 19:37:07 so it doesn't actually look like a lanyard :) 19:37:32 Oh, I gotcha 19:37:54 anyway, cost is a bit more than I planned, but I think spevack will let me get away with it 19:38:13 so I plan to approve it and arrange payment today or tomorrow 19:38:19 eof 19:39:13 :) 19:39:22 #info Lanyards are on their way, thanks to inode0 19:39:37 That's awesome John 19:39:45 * stickster looking forward to his official one 19:39:52 AOB? 19:40:04 * stickster has a dog whining to go out here and needs to wrap this up soon 19:41:33 i have nothing else 19:42:08 OK then! 19:42:22 Thanks everyone, let's get that prospectus finished up.
