01:03:38 <ParadoxGuitarist> grats
01:04:03 <award3535> kk4ewt will not be here tonight, classes started today and he is teaching
01:04:11 <Cydrobolt> I'm on my phone, so my responses might be slow or choppy
01:04:26 <izdubar> mktg is still doing the thing- could use help with many things
01:04:50 <award3535> izdubar, what do you need
01:05:10 <award3535> is this in reference to FOSSETCON
01:05:40 <izdubar> No- just Fedora Marketing is doing release notes
01:05:51 <izdubar> Some overlap with Ambassadors IMO
01:06:05 <izdubar> eof
01:07:03 <award3535> I got emails from ruth concerning the inserts for FOSSETCON, since I had not had time to put some thought into it, she said she would sent it to marketing
01:07:31 <award3535> I am always open for new things to do....
01:08:15 <award3535> I do have some thing that will be coming up in the near future,
01:08:55 <award3535> it is how we are going to request travel funding and until it is finalized that is all I will say about it, change for the better
01:09:11 <MarkDude> +1
01:09:14 <award3535> does any one have anything else.......
01:09:26 <ParadoxGuitarist> not I...
01:09:28 <MarkDude> Nuthin'
01:09:35 <ParadoxGuitarist> I think we fixed most of my ish last week.
01:09:57 <award3535> #topic === Tickets ===
01:10:12 <award3535> #link https://fedorahosted.org/famna/report/9
01:10:31 <award3535> we have none right now.... just going through motions
01:11:12 <award3535> I did get a hold of kk43wt, event box and banners are on the way to me for the next two events
01:11:57 <award3535> and yes paradoxguitarist, we cleared everything up, thanks to everyone for geting things done
01:12:15 <MarkDude> We have SeaGL upcoming in Oct. Wanting to know if we are likely to sponosr for 500 https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/94
01:13:08 <MarkDude> Jesse Keating is helping organize event. It has some grat folks attached. We can have same Ambassador from OSCON go- sexycatsinhats
01:13:46 <MarkDude> Its a new event, so supporting this part earlier is good IMHO
01:13:51 <award3535> I didnt see the ticket because it wasnt flagged for meeting, but thats okay
01:14:20 <MarkDude> Damn ALS Icebucket thingy- such a bad time for me :D
01:14:45 * MarkDude forgot that part. /me going to OLF will be done correct
01:14:52 <MarkDude> thats next week tho
01:15:08 <award3535> markdude, have the ambassadors attach a travel request to the ticket
01:15:34 <award3535> OLF is in october? are you talking about IB challenge
01:15:35 <MarkDude> Yep. And that will be done by next Thur
01:15:46 <MarkDude> Yes, both are time consuming
01:16:16 * MarkDude challenged FPL- trying to get HotDog costume back has been .... silly waste of time
01:16:40 <MarkDude> Anyway, sorry for being confusing- phonecall just happened
01:17:18 <MarkDude> to restate- 500 for sponosrship for SeaGL- travel is estimated to be around 500 for both-
01:17:38 <award3535> so your looking for $1000
01:17:40 <MarkDude> Tickets will be attached - eof
01:18:00 <MarkDude> 500 for event 500 for each ambassador
01:18:05 <MarkDude> 1500 in total
01:18:26 <award3535> +1 from me for $1500
01:18:41 <MarkDude> but +1 :)
01:18:47 <MarkDude> - but
01:19:10 <award3535> markdude is there an event page created in wiki?
01:19:21 <MarkDude> Well
01:20:17 <award3535> if you need someone to get one started I will volunteer just email me the info....
01:20:37 * MarkDude has it to copypasta- will do after meeting
01:21:08 <MarkDude> sexycats is in traffic right now. Complaining we have meeting during commute XD
01:22:39 * MarkDude can do page.
01:22:55 <award3535> cydrobolt, paradoxguitarist we need one more to carry the vote
01:23:15 * MarkDude raises eyebrows in alluring manner :D
01:23:36 <ParadoxGuitarist> +1
01:23:46 * ParadoxGuitarist needs to step out due to work
01:23:57 * ParadoxGuitarist waves***
01:24:22 <award3535> paradoxguitarist, thank you for showing up.... have a great evening
01:24:25 <Cydrobolt> Hello
01:24:49 <MarkDude> That music thing sounds cool btw :)
01:24:59 <Cydrobolt> Let me read the scroll back
01:25:03 <award3535> #agreed $1500 for SeaGL, pending creation of wiki event page
01:25:20 <MarkDude> #item follow up on tickets, wiki page and such
01:25:42 <award3535> #topic == Open Floor ===
01:25:51 <MarkDude> Super secret item
01:25:56 <MarkDude> Shhhhhh
01:26:20 * MarkDude has NO idea how to handle this, or if I should do this now
01:26:26 <Cydrobolt> Opened a request ticket for Hackthenorth
01:26:52 <Cydrobolt> Markdude, what is it? :)
01:26:52 <MarkDude> Cydrobolt, go ahead- do your thing 1st
01:27:20 <MarkDude> Its a cake for a contrib. Your ticket is hella relevant FIRST, imo
01:27:30 <Cydrobolt> Going to a couple if hackathons
01:27:35 <MarkDude> +1
01:27:41 <Cydrobolt> Of**
01:27:54 <Cydrobolt> So I requested some swag
01:28:10 <Cydrobolt> Most users there use Linux already
01:28:32 <Cydrobolt> But apparently, Fedora swag is hard to find
01:28:39 <award3535> cydrobolt did your swag request for east coast, or mid
01:28:44 <Cydrobolt> East
01:29:38 <MarkDude> Ben just started with classes, so I KNOW he is busy now- when are your events?
01:30:08 <award3535> kk4ewt will get you some if he has some, but I can also pull from nb in the mid region, I will get ahold of kk4ewt and let him know what is going on, and if he does not have any nb should be able to supply some...
01:30:11 <Cydrobolt> So I think allowing existing fedora users to help spread it themselves is the best way to promote fedora at the hackathon
01:30:15 <nb> hi
01:30:27 <Cydrobolt> Any thoughts?
01:30:31 <award3535> evening nb
01:30:36 <Cydrobolt> Hi nb
01:30:59 <Cydrobolt> through stickers etc **
01:31:04 <award3535> cydrobolt, I have a few stickers, and very little media, but can mail you some stickers
01:31:08 <Cydrobolt> Ok
01:31:12 <award3535> email me your address
01:31:18 <Cydrobolt> OK, will so
01:31:21 <award3535> nb, do you have any swag
01:31:35 <Cydrobolt> But maybe you guys have more interesting ideas
01:32:06 <MarkDude> Media is great. Sometimes folks just want to borrow a USB key
01:32:11 <nb> award3535, i have ink pens and playing cards and media
01:32:16 <MarkDude> Depends on the type of hack folks
01:32:16 <nb> and case badges
01:32:32 <MarkDude> Cards and badges are great swag
01:32:59 <award3535> cydrobolt, you may want to email nb your address as well, he has some for your event just make sure you include your ticket number
01:33:23 <award3535> I also think the event is soon
01:33:30 <award3535> so you need to get rolling
01:33:42 <MarkDude> And make sure to follow up with links for promoting etc
01:33:45 <Cydrobolt> Yeah, sept 15
01:34:03 <Cydrobolt> I'll email you guys my address
01:34:36 <MarkDude> Sounds like you also are asking for input on ideas? Or how to do it etc?
01:35:09 <MarkDude> If so - people are willing to brainstorm on it if you like. Depends on the group of folks
01:35:13 <Cydrobolt> Yeah, if you have any tips
01:35:18 <award3535> I can email you some talking points and how to present Fedora
01:35:28 <award3535> and a general link
01:35:34 <Cydrobolt> Most of those folks are developers
01:35:51 <Cydrobolt> Some are designers
01:36:22 <MarkDude> We do have some dev talking points too :D As well as a very nice Design Team- /me can give some points on that in email if you like
01:36:24 <award3535> you can use the idea of the different spins and desktops we produce to fit a wide range of interest
01:36:31 <MarkDude> +1
01:37:11 <MarkDude> Oh, make sure to mention how we VOTE. We really do have Voice here. Not just marketing crap :D
01:37:19 <Cydrobolt> +1
01:37:25 <MarkDude> All geeks like that part
01:37:39 <award3535> LOL
01:37:48 <award3535> yes we do...
01:38:06 <Cydrobolt> Yeah, also, FOSS only, mostly

01:38:12 <MarkDude> +1
01:38:27 <Cydrobolt> Ubuntu >_>
01:38:44 <MarkDude> Cydrobolt, take pics- even if they are just of things.
01:38:56 <Cydrobolt> ?
01:38:59 <MarkDude> We have a shortage of this.
01:39:00 <award3535> remember we are FIRST, all the others take from our ideas
01:39:07 <Cydrobolt> Oh, htn?
01:39:15 <Cydrobolt> Of course, pictures
01:39:19 <Cydrobolt> :D
01:39:46 <MarkDude> Yep. Its not required. Just awesome to do so
01:39:48 <award3535> I always put pictures in my reports, brings a sense of reality to events
01:39:57 <MarkDude> +1
01:40:10 <Cydrobolt> I'll also take some videos if possible
01:40:38 <Cydrobolt> Last year, an eleOS guy wrote an amazing report
01:40:57 <MarkDude> Perfect. Make sure to enjoy the event too. Its not all work
01:41:06 <Cydrobolt> :)
01:41:26 <award3535> passion in what we do is the key ingredient
01:41:59 <Cydrobolt> +1
01:43:03 <MarkDude> #item Cydrobolt to follow up with nb award3535 for getting swag for hackathon
01:43:43 <award3535> thank you markdude, I had to put the dog out.... she was jumping at the door to go out
01:43:58 <award3535> is there anything else tonight
01:44:06 <MarkDude> Super secret cake
01:44:12 <award3535> yes
01:44:27 <MarkDude> https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/95
01:44:41 <award3535> what about getting the project manager to fund it...
01:44:52 <award3535> super secretly that is
01:44:54 <MarkDude> Its would be great if we can fund this, but not sure if we need to do some other steps
01:45:02 <Cydrobolt> I'll email you my address, but I don't remember the ticket number. I'll check on it and send it to you tomorrow
01:45:28 * MarkDude was told FAMNA needs to do it. So what I figure is- its not critical as far as time
01:46:24 <MarkDude> Maybe see about getting other Fedorans to attach to ticket?
01:47:07 <award3535> so we could add a small portion of the travel towards the ticket, or donated cash and claimed as part of expense referencing the ticket
01:47:10 <nb> MarkDude, can you pm me what we are talking about?
01:47:21 <Cydrobolt> Nb, a cake
01:48:21 <MarkDude> Ok---- shhh it is for r u t h
01:48:30 <MarkDude> Hopefully zod misses that
01:48:31 * nb thinks we could do it
01:48:44 <MarkDude> quaid suggested a nice creative cake
01:48:50 <nb> just have someone buy cake and then send receipt to the usual people to reimburse
01:49:04 <MarkDude> Its a non Fedoran gonna get it
01:49:19 <MarkDude> Oh- thats it- let me find a RH or Fedoran going
01:49:32 <MarkDude> Perfect nb, thats what I was missing
01:49:49 <award3535> same difference, there are many RH people going, spot being one of them
01:50:00 <MarkDude> Good point.
01:50:13 * MarkDude thinks he has it handled from here :)

01:53:06 <nb> jdulaney and markdude are going?
01:53:10 * nb thought it was just me you and your wife
