19:02:28 <stickster> #info Agenda: https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/report/9
19:02:53 <stickster> #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/16 (Peter's funding request)
19:03:24 <stickster> SMParrish and I realized that we hadn't kept Peter informed about this, but we took care of that last week
19:03:33 <stickster> SMParrish: Anything further from Sugar Labs at this point?
19:03:34 <SMParrish> just updated the ticket.  Will ping Walter Bender today to see where we stand, will cc pbrobinson in as well
19:03:41 <stickster> OK, sounds good!
19:03:59 <stickster> #action SMParrish ping Walter @SL for update, cc pbrobinson
19:04:37 <stickster> #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/48 (Google sponsorship)
19:04:49 <stickster> #info rbergeron was going to email Cat
19:05:06 <rbergeron> I was waiting for the prospectus to be done first?
19:05:12 <stickster> Oh right, let's jump around then
19:05:13 <rbergeron> That's what the ticket says
19:05:16 <stickster> #info jump topic!
19:05:27 <rbergeron> :)
19:05:33 <stickster> I wish Trac had ticket dependencies :-)
19:05:35 <stickster> #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/47 (Prospectus)
19:05:39 <rbergeron> I do too.
19:05:40 <stickster> I don't see herlo here
19:06:06 <rbergeron> I don't either. I think at the last fudcon meeting we were going to update it afterwards but I had another meeting and I'm not sure if you did any updating.
19:06:18 <stickster> And I don't see any more updates: https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=FUDCon:Tempe_2011_prospectus&action=history
19:06:38 <stickster> Unfortunately my time is pretty short for FUDCon planning this week
19:06:46 * rbergeron nods
19:06:53 <stickster> Here's how I look at it, simply from the perspective of priorities.
19:07:04 <stickster> We have enough money to basically make all the necessities happen for FUDCon.
19:07:24 <stickster> If participants in FUDCon planning want to make more money magically appear, the prospectus is in their critical path.
19:07:37 * rbergeron nods
19:08:06 <smooge> stickster, hi. I am working on some issues ping me if I can help directly but mostly head down at the moment
19:08:06 <stickster> My role here is to help jsmith ensure that all the necessities are covered, and to take care of meetings until F14 is out the door.
19:08:16 <stickster> Thanks smooge, will do
19:09:30 <stickster> #action stickster reiterate his role to FUDCon planning list to encourage prospectus <3
19:09:47 * rbergeron grins
19:09:48 * stickster waits for anything else on this before we move on
19:10:26 <stickster> #info tickets 48 and 49 are basically waiting on this ticket.
19:11:03 <stickster> rbergeron: I think you could probably reach out to Cat and find out what she needs in terms of a prospectus, maybe that would help guide the work.
19:11:11 <rbergeron> stickster: that is a good idea.
19:11:21 <rbergeron> i shall do so.
19:11:24 <stickster> AWESOME.
19:11:47 * rbergeron will note that in the ticket unless stickster is already there
19:11:48 <stickster> #action rbergeron reach out to Cat @GOOG to figure out what she needs in terms of prospectus, to guide work
19:11:53 <stickster> rbergeron: Go right ahead
19:12:24 <stickster> inode0: Not sure if your GoDaddy contacts care, but if so, opportunity for you to get the same info from them
19:12:50 <inode0> ack
19:13:06 <stickster> #info skipping tickets 48 and 49 for now in light of the above
19:13:22 <stickster> #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/43 (Underage patrons at Sparky's Den)
19:13:35 <stickster> rbergeron: You just happen to be on two tickets in a row, sorry :-)
19:13:41 <rbergeron> I should hear back from pourmasters in the next 2 days, they are looking into it.
19:13:53 <stickster> Sounds good too
19:14:02 * stickster updates ticket
19:14:05 <rbergeron> I got the "ask someone else" from ASU and Catering so I figure since pourmasters wants the money and they seemto be in charge of that decision that they will let me know.
19:14:08 <rbergeron> I already did.
19:14:09 <stickster> Already done!
19:14:10 <stickster> You rock rbergeron
19:14:18 * rbergeron puts on her rockstar hair
19:14:34 <stickster> rbergeron: So the idea is, we want to cordon something off so that under-21's can be in the venue, right?
19:14:54 <rbergeron> Basically they need to be away from the alcohol serving point.
19:15:28 <rbergeron> Beyond that, I'm not sure, and nobody else really is either, but the indication seems to be "what the bartender service is comfortable with"
19:15:28 <stickster> That sounds reasonable to me :-)
19:15:55 <rbergeron> so I'm waiting to hear what that is.
19:16:08 <rbergeron> and it may be a "we need to look at the facility and see what works" though they indicated they've been there before
19:16:18 <rbergeron> just figuring out who remembers and where that's written down, etc.
19:16:22 <rbergeron> talking to the boss.
19:16:23 <rbergeron> :)
19:16:42 <stickster> That makes sense also. I think the optimal situation we're looking for is to *not* have to send underage people elsewhere
19:16:51 <stickster> Esp. since some will be students and others will be our guests
19:17:22 <stickster> Hopefully something like "X on your hand means no-ID, no going past the ropes" will work
19:17:44 <rbergeron> right
19:18:06 <stickster> #info Hoping to cordon off the serving area, and that will suffice so all ages can mingle elsewhere in the venue
19:18:09 <rbergeron> I think usually it is more of a "we checked id's and anyone with a blue bracelet can drink"
19:18:12 <rbergeron> or whatever.
19:18:18 <rbergeron> but something to that effect.
19:18:20 <stickster> Right, that would work as long as they were the tamper proof kind :-)
19:18:43 <stickster> rbergeron: And if there's some cost involved with that, like $50-100 extra for them to provide bracelets and take care of that, we'll pay it.
19:18:46 <rbergeron> yeah.
19:18:48 <rbergeron> we can figure it out.
19:18:54 <rbergeron> we'll see what they want to do and go from there.
19:18:55 <stickster> Otherwise we'll help figure out the logistics and make sure no one gets in hot water.
19:18:58 <stickster> Awesome.
19:19:11 <stickster> OK, anything else on this before we move on?
19:19:47 <stickster> Away we go then.
19:19:49 <stickster> #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/19 (Internet pipe)
19:20:13 <stickster> #info This one's on Jared (and possibly rrix) to let us know if their contacts have done site surveys. They have all the contact info needed at this point.
19:20:34 * stickster just got a call from jsmith 3 min ago, who's back in ATL waiting for his flight home to Virginia
19:20:41 <stickster> So I would expect we won't hear back today on this
19:21:10 <stickster> rrix: How about Zach, did you hear anything back from him?
19:21:28 <stickster> #info Broadband is one of the main costs that a sponsorship could help defray
19:21:37 <rrix> stickster: nada, so far
19:21:48 <rrix> I'll tickle him
19:21:53 <stickster> Sounds good Ryan, thanks!
19:22:06 <stickster> #action stickster will tickle jsmith to tickle his dude
19:23:04 * rbergeron laughs her ass off
19:23:23 <rbergeron> okay, sorry. :)
19:23:27 <stickster> heh
19:23:31 <stickster> MOVING ON. ;-D
19:23:35 * rrix pouts
19:23:44 <stickster> #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/50 (Welcome packet)
19:23:53 <stickster> rbergeron, didn't you say you had started putting something together on this/
19:23:57 * rbergeron will be happy to take this on and has already started framing some stuff on the wiki.
19:23:57 <stickster> er, ?
19:24:03 <stickster> wow, coolorama!
19:24:13 <rbergeron> yes, i think the link is in the ticket, unless I fouled that up.
19:24:20 <rbergeron> I mean *very* basic at this point :)
19:24:31 <rbergeron> "here are the sections I need to fill in"
19:24:35 <stickster> rbergeron: Do you mind if I swap the assignment back, since I discovered that multiple owners don't work on Trac?
19:24:40 <rbergeron> That's fine!
19:24:47 <rbergeron> Yes, I saw that - that is kind of fail of trac :)
19:24:50 <stickster> OK
19:25:08 <stickster> Yeah, although OTOH I suppose it makes sense from 'single accountable person' perspective
19:25:13 <rbergeron> yes, indeed
19:25:16 <stickster> We can always move it around as needed to support what needs doin'
19:25:19 <rbergeron> having a SPOF instead of MPOF :)
19:25:44 * rbergeron has so far made sure that everyone knows where to get computer parts, in n out and krispy kreme, lol
19:25:46 * stickster sees "Food You Crave" on the draft and larfs
19:25:55 <rbergeron> #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon:Tempe_2011_packet
19:26:02 <stickster> I think the hotel site has some of this too
19:26:13 * rbergeron nods
19:26:22 <rbergeron> stickster: Do we know what room we will be in for the hack suite?
19:26:22 <stickster> We can also include some of the tinyish-URLs we have for Good Stuff
19:26:29 <stickster> Like http://tinyurl.com/fudcon-tempe-2011-gmap
19:26:36 * rbergeron nods
19:26:48 <stickster> rbergeron: We will have the meeting room, rather than a guest suite
19:26:55 <stickster> The meeting room accommodates about 15-25 peopole
19:26:57 <stickster> *people.
19:26:59 <rbergeron> is there just *one* meeting room on site?
19:27:07 <stickster> rbergeron: Yikes, I don't know
19:27:16 <stickster> I think this is the one meeting room of its size there, though.
19:27:26 <stickster> They're going to arrange it as a multiple conversation area room
19:27:43 <rbergeron> the webpage says there are 3 meeting rooms.
19:28:00 <rbergeron> Meeting room b is the largest with 804 square feet and seating capacity of 70
19:28:14 <stickster> This is not that one
19:28:28 <rbergeron> Meeting room A is 25 people, theatre style
19:28:39 <rbergeron> 30 for anquet, 12 for conference - probably that one.
19:28:47 <stickster> That sounds like ours, correct.
19:28:49 <rbergeron> And the last is a board room, probably all fancypants looking.
19:28:53 <rbergeron> with 12 capacity, fixed.
19:28:54 <rbergeron> Okay!
19:29:02 <stickster> Yup, ours must be Meeting Room A by elimination then.
19:29:12 <stickster> Hopefully it's not actually next to where the elimination is. ;-)
19:29:17 <stickster> har har
19:29:37 <rbergeron> Okay.
19:29:39 <stickster> #action rbergeron will keep working on the welcome packet and wants YOUR help!
19:29:41 <SMParrish> lol
19:29:52 * rbergeron updated that part of the page with just the basic note :)
19:29:53 <stickster> #info Meeting Room A looks to be our hack suite, as well as our hospitality room on Friday night.
19:29:55 <herlo> did I already miss the meeting :(
19:29:59 <stickster> awesome, thanks rbergeron!
19:30:00 <rbergeron> HERRRRLO!
19:30:06 <stickster> herlo: Nope, we're still meetin'!
19:30:07 <rbergeron> no, you're just in time :)
19:30:13 * herlo has been teaching all day and missed the hour
19:30:15 <herlo> oh, good!
19:30:29 <herlo> thought I had timed it right, but Mondays are a bit *challenging*
19:30:36 <herlo> so what can I help with?
19:31:09 <stickster> Hang on and we'll topic over herlo
19:31:17 <stickster> rbergeron: Anything else on the packet?
19:31:20 <stickster> (for now that is)
19:31:23 <rbergeron> Not ATM.
19:31:28 <stickster> okey doke
19:31:33 <rbergeron> did you reassign it my way?
19:31:36 <rbergeron> or shall i
19:31:41 <stickster> rbergeron: Done
19:31:53 <stickster> #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/47 (Prospectus, part deux)
19:32:07 <rbergeron> ah.
19:32:10 <stickster> herlo: I think the prospectus is where we need someone to drive
19:32:15 <herlo> yes
19:32:26 <stickster> rbergeron is going to ask Cat about anything she needs to see there, in case that helps
19:32:36 <herlo> cool, that'll help a ton
19:32:55 <herlo> I think it's in decent shape per our last convo, but I have not had time to fix it up.  Will look at doing that tonight
19:33:40 <stickster> OK, that will help -- there are some fixme's on it still
19:33:44 <stickster> thanks for doing that herlo!
19:34:32 <stickster> Shall we move on then?
19:34:56 <herlo> sure
19:35:00 <stickster> #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/56 (Instructions on handling costs for subsidies)
19:35:10 <stickster> #info stickster took this ticket
19:35:19 <stickster> Basically, here's how this shakes out, in general:
19:35:53 <rbergeron> thank you, stickster :)
19:36:03 * rbergeron had actually no idea and should probably figure out since she herself is getting a hotel room
19:36:20 <stickster> * Travel fares -- we prefer to pay these ourselves, by charging them. Providing cash advances is not the preferred way, and basically that has to come out of someone's pocket until they get reimbursed by Red Hat. Then we have to bite our nails until we get receipts, without which... we're essentially out however much money that was
19:36:28 * herlo has already booked his room :)
19:36:38 * stickster goes on to explain rooms
19:37:00 <stickster> * Hotel rooms -- When someone from Red Hat, either myself or jsmith, arrives at the hotel, we'll arrange to pick up all the rooms for which we're paying
19:37:09 <stickster> Those will go on the master account that we'll pay with a credit card
19:37:23 <stickster> I should info those
19:37:27 <rbergeron> stickster: now, if someone books their plane fare *now*, we really don't have the budget to reimburse until Q4 starts, is that correct?
19:37:29 <stickster> #info Travel fares -- we prefer to pay these ourselves, by charging them. Providing cash advances is not the preferred way, and basically that has to come out of someone's pocket until they get reimbursed by Red Hat. Then we have to bite our nails until we get receipts, without which... we're essentially out however much money that was
19:37:42 <herlo> stickster: what if you are paying for only half of a room as in my case?  I'm guess there are others...
19:37:44 <stickster> #info Hotel rooms -- When someone from Red Hat, either myself or jsmith, arrives at the hotel, we'll arrange to pick up all the rooms for which we're paying. Those will go on the master account which we'll pay with a credit card.
19:37:53 <rbergeron> stickster: so will you and jsmith also be *booking* the rooms, or will the individual contributors book the rooms and then you will pay for them?
19:38:13 * rbergeron isn't trying to overload with qustions, just getting them out while she's in her head
19:38:18 <stickster> herlo: I'll have to ask the hotel what they're equipped to do. They may be able to have us pick up the first 2 nights, for example
19:38:25 <herlo> ahh, that'd work
19:38:27 <SMParrish> We should also try and make sure that we pair up sponsored people to make sure we dont have to split the tab
19:38:49 <stickster> SMParrish: Precisely, that's the *optimal* situation and we want to encourage all sponsored folks to do exactly that.
19:39:00 <herlo> SMParrish: my case is semi-one-off, my sig0 and child will be joining me and not subsidized, but i am...
19:39:09 <stickster> rbergeron: If we're sponsoring someone for plane fares, we're buying them
19:39:10 <rbergeron> err, while they're in my head :)
19:39:10 <herlo> rare, but possible
19:39:25 <stickster> rbergeron: I bought almost every foreign traveler's airfare at this point, just one remaining (Joerg (kital))
19:39:27 <rbergeron> ohhhhh, okay. i read what you wrote wrong. :)
19:40:00 <rbergeron> joerg is in the states right now - if you don't hear back from him that's probably why, and i'll see him fairly soon and can ping him about it then if nothing else if we're in a huge rush :)
19:40:00 <stickster> #info Room bookings: Every traveler books their own lodging, either themselves, or has their roommate do it.
19:40:14 <stickster> rbergeron: It's no problem, he's been in touch via email and all's well
19:40:19 <rbergeron> okay, cool. :)
19:40:46 <stickster> Most important -- we want our attendees to do the following:
19:41:02 <stickster> * Book a room, or have a roommate do it
19:41:18 <stickster> * If you're sponsored, please please PLEASE share a room with someone else who's sponsored
19:41:37 <stickster> That just makes everyone's lives easier -- not just jsmith's and mine, but theirs too :-)
19:42:14 <stickster> #info The reservation URLs are on the wiki now, and ready for booking!
19:42:28 <stickster> #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon:Tempe_2011#Lodging <-- shiny URLs
19:43:00 <stickster> #info The reservation link may come up for only 3 nights (1/28 - 1/30) but it is possible to extend, just call the hotel
19:43:11 <stickster> #undo
19:43:11 <zodbot> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.items.Info object at 0x2b7d2e23d810>
19:43:27 <stickster> #info The reservation link may come up for only 3 nights (nights of 1/28, 1/29, 1/30 -- i.e. 1/28-1/31 stay) but it is possible to extend, just call the hotel
19:43:43 <stickster> Other questions?
19:43:53 <rbergeron> What's our plan for getting this information to attendees?
19:43:54 <rbergeron> :)
19:43:55 <inode0> just a coment
19:43:57 <rbergeron> Wiki + Blog?
19:44:13 * rbergeron already volunteered to blog or at least got asked to
19:44:13 <stickster> rbergeron: Yes, thank you for volunteering
19:44:15 <stickster> KIDDING!
19:44:18 <inode0> you can just change the link or the dates to extend via the website too (usually)
19:44:19 <stickster> OK, 1/2 kidding
19:44:30 <stickster> I'm drafting one too, rbergeron, always happy to help yack where needed :-)
19:44:44 <rbergeron> I think having more than one is probably a good idea anyway :)
19:44:55 <rbergeron> perhaps spaced a few days apart
19:45:00 <stickster> inode0: Yes, that may work -- if the shoulder date allotment in the computer runs out, someone at the hotel can override it, and give us more as needed
19:45:03 <rbergeron> catch as many eyeballz as possible
19:45:20 <stickster> rbergeron: Brilliant. I'll commit to doing one after this meeting, would you like to do one, say, Wed or Thu?
19:46:00 <stickster> #action stickster Write blog entry on airfares and lodging for subsidies, and booking rooms
19:46:37 <stickster> #info We could handle ticket #57 in the same blogging
19:46:42 <rbergeron> stickster: that works well for me :)
19:46:57 <stickster> coo' beanz
19:47:38 <stickster> Any other questions on subsidies/costs?
19:48:21 <rbergeron> nada.
19:48:48 <stickster> #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/57 (Marking roommate needs on wiki)
19:49:15 <stickster> I think we could hit this in the same blog. Basically, there's already a "Room sharing" space, I think of "yes" there as meaning, "I want/need to share"
19:49:23 * rbergeron nods
19:49:25 <rbergeron> i agree
19:49:43 <stickster> Until there's a person's name in that box, which we ask roommates to write in when they have one, it's an open connection
19:49:54 <rbergeron> so - basically this came up because one of the cloud folks is coming and doesn't actually know anyone *in person* yet so he wasn't sure how to find someone to room with.
19:50:09 <stickster> rbergeron: It's basically, look for a free connection there, and email
19:50:12 * rbergeron nods
19:50:39 <stickster> I can tell you from experience (mchua will confirm) that we don't want to end up responsible for this part -- because it's an added layer of complexity that's far easier to decentralize
19:50:53 * rbergeron grins
19:51:08 <stickster> We should just tell people who are subsidized to find a subsidy roommate, and everyone else is free to do whatever works for them
19:51:38 <stickster> rbergeron: Here's an idea, in say, 30 days, we could tell people we're going to assign subsidy roommates on that basis.
19:52:28 <rbergeron> that sounds reasonable.
19:52:45 <stickster> OK
19:52:49 <inode0> then there are non-subsidy people looking as well, do we have an even number of subsidized rooms or is there one oddball?
19:53:05 <stickster> inode0: There will be no more than one, which we can handle :-)
19:53:17 <stickster> I just don't want to end up with ten :-)
19:53:52 <inode0> I know at least one person left out of a room subsidy who wants a roommate - just trying to convey that
19:54:07 <stickster> inode0: Roommates will not be in short supply
19:54:31 <stickster> Anyone without a room subsidy can still find a roommate through the wiki, just email someone with an open roomshare
19:54:54 <inode0> it is confusing honestly
19:55:05 <stickster> inode0: It's more confusing for us as planners than for individuals, I think.
19:55:11 <inode0> most of the redhat folks listed don't want me as a roommate - they will pick each other
19:55:22 <inode0> then all the subsidy people will be picking each other
19:55:41 <stickster> If I'm a visitor coming to FUDCon, I know I want to spend money on 1/2 a room. So it behooves me to reach out and find a roomshare.
19:55:57 <stickster> Basically, we want to stay out of the way of people doing the things that make the most sense for them to do anyway
19:56:37 * jsmith-mobile agrees with stickster
19:56:39 <stickster> That was the problem we had in Toronto -- trying to manipulate that too much resulted in chaos for a lot of people
19:56:54 <inode0> I'm not trying to manipulate anything
19:57:05 <stickster> inode0: I didn't say you did, reread my line above :-)
19:57:11 <inode0> I'm trying to help one person not ask 40 people who aren't going to say yes
19:57:12 <stickster> I said *we* did (the planners at Toronto)
19:58:09 * rbergeron just got her sig0 to put a session proposal on the wiki page, *grin*
19:58:13 <inode0> actually I'm just trying to convey that this isn't as obvious or simple for someone on the outskirts
19:58:19 <stickster> inode0: Let's give it until Robyn and I get our posts out this week, at least. If there's still a lot of unshared rooms and confusion, we can help in a single instance very easily
19:58:44 <herlo> +1 stickster
19:58:56 * herlo will try to get somethign up soon too
19:59:00 <stickster> Thanks herlo!
19:59:15 <herlo> :P by all means, everyone should post if they can
19:59:19 <stickster> OK, I owe jsmith-mobile a phone call back, so let's try to wrap up in a few minutes
19:59:27 <stickster> I think we've covered this pretty well
19:59:36 <stickster> #action rbergeron stickster Cover this info in their blog entries
19:59:50 <stickster> #topic https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/58 (Need bus info in wiki)
20:00:02 <rbergeron> Bus or Light rail?
20:00:34 <stickster> Bus -- we have the light rail info there, but people may want to take a bus connection the ~3 blocks to the hotel possibly? I'm not sure how far that walk is, just trying to maximize our info
20:01:01 <rbergeron> it's about 700m.
20:01:24 <herlo> do it in furlongs
20:01:31 <rbergeron> honestly - like a 10 minute walk, *maybe*
20:01:31 <stickster> OK, so ~10 min or so
20:01:33 <stickster> http://tinyurl.com/fudcon-tempe-2011-gmap
20:01:34 * rbergeron wants to go time it out
20:02:11 <rbergeron> Also, the hotel provides transportation as well - if someone is really freakin about a 10 minute walk (or has a bunch of stuff to carry) we can either get them or get the hotel to get them
20:02:11 <stickster> There may be differently-abled people coming, so it makes sense to put their options in front of them if there's info available
20:02:20 <stickster> rbergeron: Oh right, there's the airport shuttle!
20:02:54 <rbergeron> And the Robyn shuttle, too. :)
20:03:00 <stickster> #info Hotel has a complimentary airport shuttle for anyone who wants it... or the light rail + 700m walk
20:03:01 * rbergeron will make others drive the robyn shuttle, though :)
20:03:05 * herlo will be around
20:03:10 <herlo> with his shuttle
20:03:24 <stickster> good man
20:03:26 <herlo> :)
20:03:32 <herlo> so we've got ways of helping
20:03:51 <stickster> #idea We could make cell phone numbers or temporary google voice numbers available for people at the conference if needed
20:04:17 <stickster> i.e. "Call if you get in a jam"
20:04:23 <rbergeron> yup.
20:04:34 <rbergeron> and if you need a ride for whatever reason just try to let us know beforehand :)
20:04:55 <stickster> #agreed Between the hotel, and ourselves (people who are driving), we can handle transpo for anyone as needed
20:05:07 <stickster> OK, that brings us to the loverly "AOB"
20:05:11 <stickster> #topic AOB (all other business)
20:05:38 <rbergeron> Have we seen anything in the various fudcon zurich reports that we should make note of to apply learned lessons to fudcon tempe?
20:05:40 <stickster> #info stickster begs to report that he has booked all international airfares at this point, save one (Joerg) whose ticket he will handle Very Soon
20:06:18 <stickster> #info jsmith is going to have a retrospective of some sort and I'm certain we can cajole him into sending info to the list
20:06:28 <stickster> #undo
20:06:28 <zodbot> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.items.Info object at 0x2b7d2f51ee90>
20:06:41 <stickster> #info jsmith is going to have a retrospective of some sort on his takeaway from Zurich and I'm certain we can cajole him into sending relevant info to the list
20:07:08 <stickster> <eof/>
20:07:32 <stickster> Mic is open for anyone who wants it -- I'll close in ~90 sec otherwise
20:09:19 <stickster> Okey doke, thanks for coming everyone!
