04:31:12 <azneita> TBDs yet
04:31:32 <dramsey> True, I am not sure if it is really going to become a reality.
04:32:16 <dramsey> Last update was  14:11, 14 October 2010 Narasim
04:32:57 <suresht> for long time ago
04:33:00 <azneita> in any case, any other cities wanting to put in a bid? brisbane? kaio :)
04:33:19 <bckurera> thelocation should be easily accesible
04:33:24 <bckurera> like a center in APAC
04:33:28 <suresht> hope Manila id good! in this time
04:33:30 <bckurera> I like MY or SG
04:33:40 <suresht> sry Manila is good!
04:33:48 <azneita> MY? KageSenshi?
04:33:51 * KageSenshi not sure whether to put KL as bid or not .. as not quite sure if theres enough time / manpower to help out here
04:34:14 <suresht> so move to sg or Manila!
04:34:26 <azneita> not so soon though, we need about a year to prepare
04:34:48 <KageSenshi> i can try buzzing the fedora-my ml and see if theres someone who want to take the lead ..
04:35:02 <azneita> cool KageSenshi
04:35:03 * KageSenshi can help, but i dont think i can take the lead
04:35:14 <KageSenshi> for a large event like fudcon
04:35:22 <suresht> get Harish from sg
04:35:36 <azneita> SG would be nice but harish would have his hands full with one
04:35:42 <azneita> can't speak for him
04:35:51 * KageSenshi nods
04:35:53 <tuanta> +1 SG
04:36:02 <suresht> +1 sg
04:36:24 <dramsey> +1 for SG and Red Hat in SG!
04:36:25 <dramsey> :D
04:36:25 <KageSenshi> theres a pycon happening at .sg on june
04:36:30 <tuanta> I know Red Hat APAC is there
04:36:39 <azneita> KageSenshi, you're coming right?
04:36:43 <KageSenshi> pycon apac on 2011 might happen in .my
04:36:59 <KageSenshi> i mean 2012
04:37:34 <KageSenshi> pycon apac on 2011 might happen in .my .. though the local community still putting together the team
04:37:37 <bckurera> hmmm SG seems a great place then r8
04:37:41 <KageSenshi> err .. 2012
04:38:33 <KageSenshi> hurm .. if we are going to bid for fudcon apac, when would we want to do it ?
04:38:36 <azneita> guys, in the event that a FudCon SG will happen, anybody willing to help organize
04:38:54 <bckurera> yup it is a must
04:39:02 <tuanta> +1 azneita
04:39:04 <azneita> KageSenshi, jsmith opens up bidding process
04:39:09 <KageSenshi> (it might be cool if pycon-apac2012/fudcon-apac2012 happens consequently)
04:39:10 <bckurera> organizing committee will do it
04:39:18 <suresht> +1 azneita
04:39:35 <azneita> right now, I only know harish to be from SG
04:40:06 <suresht> there r 5 ambassadors
04:40:11 <kaio> azneita, hi sorry family members kept talking next to me.. :P
04:40:19 <azneita> np, kaio
04:40:24 <bckurera> #link http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/MembershipService/Verification#Singapore_.285.29
04:40:32 <bckurera> there are 5 including harish
04:40:39 <suresht> yes
04:40:42 <KageSenshi> active ambassadors in .my theres 3
04:40:54 <kaio> azneita, I personally am not capable to bid by personal busy-ness.
04:40:54 <azneita> but we can't speak for them, i'd rather not assume anything
04:41:10 <dramsey> Very true.
04:41:12 <azneita> without checking with them first
04:41:16 <bckurera> KageSenshi list says the number is 11
04:41:24 <suresht> +1 azneita
04:41:55 <KageSenshi> bckurera, .MY? .. theres 11 ambassadors, but the active ones only 3 .. the rest, they available once a while , $dayjob getting the most out of em
04:42:51 <azneita> fwiw, i'm willing to join any bid in SEA
04:43:07 <kaio> #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraAPACMediaDist2011A
04:43:07 <dramsey> +1 azneita
04:43:20 <KageSenshi> +1 azneita
04:43:29 <bckurera> hmm seems the discussion is very lengthy :)
04:43:52 <azneita> we're all interested, that's why :)
04:43:53 <kaio> Please put your request on that. Sorry everything daily bit my time.
04:44:05 <azneita> thanks kaio
04:44:19 <KageSenshi> #action KageSenshi to buzz fedora-my to see if theres people who have time to help out in fudcon bid
04:44:56 <azneita> the time frame would probably be late 2011 or early 2012, right?
04:45:02 <bckurera> KageSenshi check with harish too
04:45:16 <bckurera> azneita +1
04:45:31 <KageSenshi> bckurera, will see if i can contact him
04:46:04 <dramsey> Yup, I think Harish has a plan or two as well for 2011/2012...
04:46:25 <azneita> KageSenshi, please cc me on the mail or are you going to ask on ambassadors list?
04:46:53 <bckurera> dramsey +1, harish have some plans :)
04:46:54 <KageSenshi> azneita, was thinking to either give a call or email
04:47:10 <KageSenshi> wariola have harish's contact
04:47:35 <azneita> whichever works :)
04:47:52 <KageSenshi> azneita, if i email, i'll try to remember to cc you :)
04:48:07 <azneita> btw, last harish and i met, i told him about our experience with media @ LCA
04:48:12 <dramsey> azneita +1
04:48:23 <azneita> people have been asking for 64bit
04:48:29 <azneita> and we only have 32bit
04:48:56 <azneita> he told me that for F15, we need to decide on the arch we will produce for region
04:49:19 <azneita> are we going for 50/50 or another proportio
04:49:25 <KageSenshi> 80% 64bit 20% 32bit ?
04:49:28 <azneita> we're talking about LiveCDs btw
04:49:53 <KageSenshi> at least in .MY most people are 64bit nowadays ..
04:50:09 <KageSenshi> not sure about other countries
04:50:15 <azneita> f15 release is about two months away so we want the number fixed for production after beta
04:50:25 <suresht> they are moving that's true.in here too!
04:50:27 <dramsey> Sounds like a plan/action item...
04:50:42 <bckurera> 64bit seems more emerging
04:50:49 <azneita> we can sync production with other swag too
04:51:01 <azneita> like stickers and case badges
04:51:02 <KageSenshi> #action KageSenshi to contact harish about possibility of fudcon in MY/SG
04:51:27 <azneita> and send them along with media to ambassadors shortly before release for release parties
04:51:36 <bckurera> #action fix media prodcusion proprtio
04:51:37 <azneita> agreed?
04:51:52 <suresht> +1 azneita!
04:51:55 <bckurera> sending media will not work
04:51:56 <KageSenshi> +1
04:52:20 <azneita> care to elaborate bckurera
04:52:37 <dramsey> Good ideas guys!!!
04:53:07 <bckurera> i dont get you azneita?
04:53:31 <KageSenshi> bckurera, care to elaborate why sending media will not work ?
04:53:33 <azneita> sorry, which part? i'll try to clarify it
04:53:42 <suresht> in future,we need f15 at the time bcoz we have to confirm before the FAD_SL
04:54:01 <bckurera> sending media will take some time and then tax
04:54:08 <azneita> yep
04:54:15 <bckurera> due to those reasons it is good to produce them locally
04:54:21 <azneita> ah, ok
04:54:35 <bckurera> we have to pay taxes in large amount even those are for not-commercial
04:54:40 <azneita> for some locales that may be true
04:54:56 <azneita> especially if the local ambassador can and is willing todo it
04:54:56 <bckurera> and their air parcel cost, its too high
04:54:58 <suresht> if it is so.we need  stickster and dvd fedora cover so ans so...
04:55:13 <bckurera> therefore we have to make sure we spent our money with lot of care
04:55:24 <azneita> for some, it's quite tedious and want to leverage some economies of scale by producing in bulk
04:55:38 <azneita> and the quality is standardized
04:55:46 <bckurera> its right
04:55:51 <azneita> we would want to put our best foot forward during events
04:55:51 <suresht> yes that's im thinking
04:56:04 <bckurera> even in fedora media i got from harish there are some not-working live CDs
04:56:34 <bckurera> so we need to produce high quality Cd with for a lot cost
04:56:48 <suresht> i am expecting orignal from fedora becoz that's the design(cover) and quality!
04:56:55 <azneita> the cost follows
04:57:02 <suresht> we need to cover people
04:57:07 <azneita> the challenge is managing it
04:57:23 <azneita> if we have local ambassadors willing to produce them locally, it's ok
04:57:39 <bckurera> we can encourage them to do so
04:57:46 <azneita> true
04:57:53 <bckurera> because that ll save fedora money too
04:58:13 <azneita> it's just one hop from sg to mnl and it'll save time
04:58:25 <azneita> i'll pay for my time :)
04:58:40 <KageSenshi> :)
04:58:50 <bckurera> we all should azneita
04:59:20 <azneita> my point is, it's local ambassadors call
04:59:45 <azneita> but for those who wish to produce bulk, let's decide on a proportion
05:00:31 <dramsey> True on costs.
05:00:32 <azneita> mnl historically has only two events in a year - SGC in first half and software freedom day in 2nd half
05:01:17 <azneita> so it's easier for us to plan on numbers
05:01:35 <azneita> and yep, release parties
05:01:48 <KageSenshi> azneita, i think for free media we need to view it in 6 month term instead of 1 year
05:02:20 <dramsey> +1 KageSenshi
05:02:35 <azneita> yep. and we can coordinate our efforts to try to overlap our tasks
05:02:49 <azneita> that way we can save a fellow ambassador the hassle
05:03:08 <azneita> we want ambassadors being out there
05:03:16 <bckurera> KageSenshi +1
05:03:18 <azneita> not trying to produce stuff
05:03:53 <KageSenshi> the thing that preventing .my from producing our own is that we only have 4/5 months to finish the supply before it become outdated (assuming 1/2 months already used in trying to get fund/produce the media)
05:04:08 <KageSenshi> and we dont have that many events per 6 months
05:04:09 <azneita> that's always a challenge
05:04:27 <azneita> as dramsey always tell me, more events!
05:04:31 <KageSenshi> hehe
05:04:45 <bckurera> you can do it azneita!
05:04:51 <KageSenshi> :)
05:04:55 <azneita> hehe
05:05:02 <azneita> not me, our team here
05:05:25 <KageSenshi> go to mini-akiba of .MY and distribute free media every 2 weeks? :P
05:05:48 <suresht> haha KageSenshi!
05:05:50 <azneita> :)
05:06:03 <suresht> +KageSenshi!
05:06:07 <azneita> #action create a plan for media/swag production for apac
05:06:20 <KageSenshi> XD
05:06:43 <bckurera> i think it is good if we assign an Am for the above task
05:07:00 <bckurera> then he has the responsibility to produce the report with in the time what u all think?
05:07:03 <azneita> can we use kaio's https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraAPACMediaDist2011A for this
05:07:18 <azneita> + bckurera
05:07:21 <azneita> +1
05:07:30 <dramsey> We can do it!
05:07:31 <suresht> +1 Azneita!
05:07:38 <dramsey> We need more events!  +1 guys!
05:07:44 <bckurera> if no offence i like to get it
05:07:59 <azneita> thanks bckurera
05:07:59 <bckurera> i ll produce a report on next apac meeting
05:07:59 <KageSenshi> XD
