04:18:50 <dramsey> Please, maktrix
04:19:10 <maktrix> we had a release party planned and the event budget was reveiwed by APAC
04:19:16 <maktrix> also the APAC agreed that
04:19:43 <maktrix> but, I regret to inform that the Event owner was attacked by a mob in an parking area where he was with his mother
04:19:56 <maktrix> those goons beat him in front of his mother
04:20:37 <KageSenshi> ouch >.<
04:20:40 <maktrix> we had to pause this event;
04:20:48 <maktrix> the event owner: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Imtiaz
04:21:06 <maktrix> I talked to him, he is recovering and want to arrange the event, after I asked if he want to cancel.

04:23:12 <dramsey> maktrix, do you want me to put a "#info" for APAC 21?

04:25:26 <dramsey> eof
04:25:57 <zerng07> Ask Harish by mail?

04:26:15 <dramsey> maktrix, please
04:26:16 <maktrix> is it possible to send via FedEx or DHL?
04:26:30 <dramsey> maktrix, sounds like a worthy question.
04:26:43 <maktrix> we have problem with Goverment mail, they ask too much tax and don't try to understand Free DVD things
04:26:46 <maktrix> eof
04:26:56 <dramsey> We should #info and I am certain Harish will provide information.
04:27:04 <maktrix> +!
04:27:07 <maktrix> +1
04:27:14 <zerng07> +1
04:27:15 <dramsey> maktrix, has the use of the Fedora Legal form been received during those shipments?
04:27:49 <dramsey> Where there is a "Fedora" will there is a way!  :)
04:28:16 <maktrix> Never tried them, but had issues while receiving swags from other open source projects.
04:28:32 <dramsey> Understood.
04:28:43 <maktrix> And found it is easy to receive via FedEx and DHL
04:28:55 <dramsey> #info Need help in sending material to matrix and others, in order to avoid 'tax' and other related issues.
04:28:58 <dramsey> +12
04:29:00 <dramsey> +22
04:29:34 <dramsey> #info Requests FedEx or DHL for swag media to assist maktrix and others as a remedy.
04:29:42 <dramsey> Does that sound right everyone?
04:29:49 <maktrix> +1 good
04:29:49 <maktrix> :)
04:29:58 <zerng07> +1 :)
04:30:29 <dramsey> zerng07, here's the link from Harish - http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/ambassadors/2012-July/019940.html
04:30:42 <dramsey> Therefore, I think e-mail with mailing address will be perfect.  :)
04:31:00 <dramsey> All good everyone.  Other thoughts or next topic?
04:31:04 <zerng07> OK, thanks!

04:31:45 <dramsey> Hi Harish
04:31:55 <KageSenshi> hi harish :)
04:32:01 <harish> dramsey, hi.
04:32:02 <zerng07> hi harish
04:32:07 <harish> greetings all.
04:32:30 <MavJS> good afternoon harish :)
04:32:31 * harish was busy working with my son on his math
04:32:51 * harish so that we can then play with the raspberry pi in the afternoon
04:33:04 <dramsey> Harish, your timing is perfect.  :)
04:33:09 <zerng07> good dad!
04:33:13 <dramsey> Harish, we had two questions.
04:33:18 <udinnet> :D
04:33:18 <harish> shoot away
04:33:30 <dramsey> harish -
04:33:30 <dramsey> 1.) zerng07 had a media request for F17 and wanted to ask how to get the request to you, via e-mail?
04:33:30 <dramsey> 2.) maktrix wanted to see if FedEx or DHL may be used to send?
04:34:00 <harish> media - send request to me directly. i can ship it. need mailing address and phone number.
04:34:15 <harish> i think rh apac uses fedex.
04:34:27 <harish> i have about 1600 CDs left.
04:34:50 <harish> i can ship some older ones along with it as collector items.
04:35:25 <dramsey> harish, roger that.  Perfect, thank you!  :)
04:35:26 <dramsey> zerng07 and maktrix, does that answer everything?
04:35:49 <maktrix> that's excellent to hear it directly from harish :)
04:35:52 <zerng07> I got it.
04:36:09 * KageSenshi will ask some more cds after august ..
04:36:12 <maktrix> I shall write to harish asking for 200 CD along with few collectors item
04:36:21 <harish> has the wiki been updated to indicate any incoming customs taxes?
04:36:34 <harish> if there are taxes, it is not possible for me to pay that.
04:36:51 <dramsey> harish, good question.  We will inquire.
04:36:53 <maktrix> there are no tax if you confirm that things are free and are not for sale
04:37:21 <harish> we always do that in the declaration, but some customs folks are well you know what i mean
04:37:28 <zerng07> yeah, it is the same in Taiwan.
04:37:30 <maktrix> Have been receiving mozilla swags without giving any taxes
04:37:35 <harish> ok
04:37:38 <dramsey> +1 maktrix
04:38:07 <maktrix> FedEx takes care of that; but if you send throug our country's govertment postal service, than I will be doomed.
04:38:15 <dramsey> Where there is a "Fedora" will there is a way!  :)
