20:07:07 <liknus> #topic Announcements
20:07:29 <liknus> We are approaching to F14 GA and many things are happening within our community :)
20:07:37 <liknus> First of all our new website:
20:07:44 <liknus> #link http://fedoraproject.org
20:08:08 <liknus> Also we are having voting for the codename of Fedora 15
20:08:24 <liknus> #link https://admin.fedoraproject.org/voting/about/relnamef15?_csrf_token=4c6d098388a8fd830a92662deacabd0e3dc5f7af
20:08:29 <liknus> please go ahead and vote :)
20:09:01 <liknus> Also there are some upcoming elections (more on that on our lists and on next announcements)
20:09:33 <liknus> Finally I want to remind everyone that we need to celebrate our Fedora 14 with awesome Release Parties :)
20:09:49 <liknus> Right now in EMEA region we have only one party scheduled
20:09:57 <liknus> #link http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F14_release_events
20:10:16 <liknus> But we are going to also finalize ours in Greece :)
20:10:32 <liknus> (Once again it's going to be a dual-web-linked party)
20:11:03 <liknus> Please step forward and take the initiative to organize your own local Release Party :)
20:11:22 <liknus> kital, anything from FAmSCo ?
20:12:44 <liknus> #meetingname EMEA Ambassadors 2010-10-27
20:12:44 <zodbot> The meeting name has been set to 'emea_ambassadors_2010-10-27'
20:13:00 <liknus> Ok moving on::
20:13:14 <liknus> #topic F14 Media Production
20:13:17 * cwickert doesn't think so as FAmSCo hardly meets when kital is on holidays
20:13:31 <cwickert> !
20:13:37 <liknus> cwickert, sadly you are right :P
20:13:45 <liknus> cwickert, go ahead please :)
20:13:55 <cwickert> ok, I had a long and hard fight
20:14:07 <cwickert> but we will have the dual layer multi desktop live dvd
20:14:22 <cwickert> yesterday our FPL called me and we finalized everything
20:14:36 <liknus> (awesome news :) )
20:14:46 <cwickert> we will try to make them ASAP but I cannot give you a definite date
20:15:14 <cwickert> liknus, sspreitzer or me need a list with shipping addresse from you
20:15:26 <cwickert> that's all I think
20:15:30 <cwickert> any questions?
20:15:49 <liknus> I will provide 5 addresses for you (hope that suits the primary anchor points plan)
20:16:04 <cwickert> I can act as the one for germany btw
20:16:13 <Southern_Gentlem> cwickert, is there a step by step procedure anywhere so these can be created everywhere
20:16:45 <cwickert> Southern_Gentlem, I will give you the link to the wiki in a few
20:16:46 <Southern_Gentlem> and anyone
20:16:57 <liknus> cwickert, thank you for your continuous effort on that .. It would have been impossible without your "fight"
20:17:10 <cwickert> yeah, but fighting sucks
20:17:17 <liknus> Ok so the outstanding issues on that are :
20:17:26 <cwickert> some folks in the board have lost the connection to the  community
20:17:39 <cwickert> they have never done any booth serivce on an event as we do
20:17:52 <Southern_Gentlem> cwickert,  +1
20:17:53 <cwickert> so let's try to get as many community people into the board and fesco
20:18:04 <cwickert> and therefor you need to vote
20:18:13 <liknus> cwickert, well said :) although that's not always the case
20:18:15 <cwickert> ok, that's all, eof
20:18:44 <liknus> what about the artwork cwickert, I still need to make the spin-off from the originals?
20:19:03 <liknus> #action liknus sends cwickert the primary addresses for F14 shipment
20:19:04 <cwickert> liknus, nope, the design team will take care of it
20:19:14 <liknus> ok nice cwickert
20:19:20 <liknus> anything else on that?
20:20:03 <liknus> ok nice :) moving on (although we are on top of that through ml)
20:20:15 <liknus> #topic Events

20:20:44 <liknus> cwickert, go ahead
20:20:53 <cwickert> I was at the opensuse conference and it was awesome. we can learn a lot from them
20:21:01 <cwickert> I will blog about it later
20:21:22 <cwickert> and then we can discuss if we are going to take some inspiration from them in the next meeting
20:21:23 <cwickert> eof
20:21:54 <liknus> cwickert, thanks for that update :) we would love some new ideas :)
20:22:44 <liknus> Apart fromour Release Parties we have only OpenRheinRuhr and SIB in Tunisia
20:22:51 <cwickert> !
20:22:57 <liknus> Anyone want to step up for them?
20:23:00 <liknus> cwickert, go ahead
20:23:01 <cwickert> for openrheinruhr we have confirmed the hotel rooms. Fedora and Xfce will be in the same hotel.
20:23:17 <cwickert> if you want to attend, you need to take care of a room yourself now
20:23:18 <cwickert> eof
20:23:33 <liknus> Thanks again cwickert
20:23:39 <liknus> Just a note :

20:24:41 <liknus> that's going to be on 12-14 november
20:24:42 <cwickert> liknus, If you need help, just drop me a note. Mario, the organizer of FOSSASIA is a very good friend of mine
20:25:15 <liknus> Awesome cwickert :) thanks for letting me know.. I am getting along with Mario very well :) he is a nice guy!
20:25:58 <liknus> Also : the production of t-shirts in Vietnam costs 2 USD per t-shirt printed
20:26:25 <liknus> so I am going to bring some back to fuel EMEA (if I am not busted in customs :P )
