14:11:39 <rebelk0de> KageSenshi, Done. Sent to mailing list too
14:11:41 * KageSenshi goes pick the link
14:11:52 <rbergeron> So I missed that, but most of it was already in action before we got done, except for group bookings.
14:11:59 <rbergeron> rebelk0de: thahkns for doing that
14:12:12 <vinz007> MavJS: ok

14:13:24 <KageSenshi> MavJS, :)
14:13:40 <MavJS> KageSenshi: done. sent it to the fudcon-planning ml :)
14:13:47 <KageSenshi> MavJS, can you summarize here
14:13:53 <KageSenshi> again tq :)
14:13:56 <MavJS> alright.
14:14:26 <MavJS> so the discounts for the rooms are a no-go unless we're going for 30 and above.
14:15:23 <rbergeron> okay, do we think we're going to need that many, or not realy?
14:15:37 <MavJS> i don't think so.
14:15:39 <rbergeron> I am more apt to go with not realy, esp. if we have to owe the money if we don't make it.
14:15:43 <KageSenshi> yep, dont think so
14:16:19 <rebelk0de> dont think so either
14:16:29 <KageSenshi> sponsorship application currently is around 11 last i checked this afternoon, so thats only around 3 four person room ..
14:16:31 <rbergeron> okay, let's skip it then.
14:16:52 <MavJS> if we're taking the Family suites, we can have 3-4 persons per room. we wouldn't hit 30 rooms :)
14:17:11 <KageSenshi> with option to add beds
14:17:28 <MavJS> yup, that too. :)
14:17:37 <KageSenshi> at most 1 bed, so the largest room can fit 5 people
14:18:08 <KageSenshi> MavJS, theres wifi provided too right?
14:18:33 <MavJS> KageSenshi: yup. and the pricing that i gave is breakfast and taxes included.
14:18:44 <KageSenshi> MavJS, can you list out the prices here
14:18:56 <MavJS> sure. hold on. :)
14:19:54 <KageSenshi> #action KageSenshi to add the hotel price information into the wiki
14:20:38 * KageSenshi found the mail first
14:20:41 <MavJS> ah, there is the link https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/fudcon-planning/2012-March/003377.html

14:21:33 <KageSenshi> next item then :)
14:22:14 <KageSenshi> information in blog post about subsidies .. erm .. guess thats a not-yet :)
14:22:38 <rbergeron> yeah. sooooooooooooooooooooo - i went to do that, and remembered you did one, and figured, that works, but didn't think aobu tthe mailing list announcement.
14:22:45 <rbergeron> or rather, it registered in my mind as "done" but it wasn't.
14:23:02 <KageSenshi> yeah
14:23:04 <rbergeron> and i know christoph raised this on the mailing list - do we want to do a mailing list post now, and just bump out the dates?
14:23:12 <KageSenshi> +1
14:24:12 <KageSenshi> what date do we want to bump it to?
14:24:18 <rbergeron> ummm
14:24:55 <rbergeron> i think he suggested the 27th - i am okay with that
14:25:01 * rbergeron needs to take her trash out for the truck! crap
14:25:01 <KageSenshi> ok
14:25:18 <KageSenshi> XD
14:25:32 <sweemeng> i love trash day
14:26:03 <KageSenshi> #info sponsorship request is extended to 27th March
14:26:27 <KageSenshi> but i think we should start deciding on who gets approved and who didnt on the meeting on 22th
14:26:27 <rbergeron> okay, i'll do the mail now while we go through meeting
14:26:51 * rbergeron just barely got it out before the truck came, heard it driving down the street
14:27:03 <KageSenshi> yay :)

14:27:36 <KageSenshi> #topic questions/decisions
14:27:52 <KageSenshi> rbergeron, are we allowed to get external sponsorship ?
14:27:57 <rbergeron> absolutely
14:28:01 <KageSenshi> cool
14:28:19 <KageSenshi> basically, we're thinking of finding sponsors for extra t-shirts
14:28:42 <KageSenshi> ok then :)
14:29:06 <KageSenshi> rebelk0de, MavJS , sweemeng ,and rest of team, you guys got questions to ask here?
14:29:31 <sweemeng> loud and clear
14:29:36 <rebelk0de> !
14:29:39 <KageSenshi> rebelk0de,
14:29:50 <meng> lets say if I am getting stuff from the wholesalers for the 3-1 packs, what should I do?
14:30:04 <rebelk0de> KageSenshi: Have a few things to sort out, add to the wiki, and get my logistics team to work on
14:30:17 <rebelk0de> but can only proceed next monday - have a few projects to complete this week
14:30:20 <KageSenshi> meng, add it into the budget document, and we'll decide afterwards
14:30:39 <KageSenshi> meng, we'll go for shopping near the event

14:31:19 <KageSenshi> MavJS,
14:31:31 <MavJS> KageSenshi: when do we start booking for rooms?
14:31:35 <KageSenshi> ah
14:31:38 <KageSenshi> right
14:32:03 <KageSenshi> first we need to get is estimated numbers
14:32:04 <KageSenshi> hurm
14:32:26 * KageSenshi checks the sponsorship request list
14:32:42 <rbergeron> we should wait fto book rooms until after we have people sponsored to attend.
14:33:01 <vinz007> !
14:33:03 <rbergeron> ideally we'd like fr one person per room to book the room themselves, and we'll pay for it onsite.
14:33:16 <MavJS> rbergeron: ah, right. ok.
14:33:56 <vinz007> what about this hotel? http://www.hotel128.com.my/index.html
14:34:00 <KageSenshi> we have 12 sponsorship request at the moment, so i guess we'll be expecting around 15-16 people
14:34:49 * KageSenshi tries to recall why not hotel128

14:44:42 <KageSenshi> jipang_menjerit, neat

14:45:56 <KageSenshi> jipang_menjerit, depend on budget, but well, i think lets just treat them equally like everyone else .. with , perhaps, some extra material for them to use for news
14:46:16 <jipang_menjerit> ok then
14:46:17 <jipang_menjerit> eof
14:46:22 <KageSenshi> ok
14:46:29 * rbergeron notes we shoudl probably work with marketing for a press release, or see if Red Hat is willing to do a press release or a news blog.
14:46:44 <sweemeng> !
14:46:46 <rbergeron> If we want to engage local media i think that is okay, but if we want to do a press release it shoudl come from the project as a whole
14:46:54 <KageSenshi> +1 rbergeron
14:46:58 <rebelk0de> +1 rbergeron
14:47:03 <sweemeng> +1 rbergeron
14:47:18 <MavJS> +1
14:47:23 <KageSenshi> #info we should contact the marketing team to help out with the press-release
14:47:33 <KageSenshi> sweemeng,
14:48:07 <sweemeng> presskit for community event?
14:48:16 <KageSenshi> sweemeng, ?
14:48:17 <sweemeng> or that is just flyer(not part of presskit?)
14:48:27 <jipang_menjerit> KageSenshi: I'll update the actual numbers later
14:49:01 <KageSenshi> sweemeng, presskit , as in, stuff to help us getting covered in news :) ..
14:49:08 <sweemeng> ok, not related
14:49:09 <sweemeng> eof
14:49:22 <KageSenshi> next topic?
14:50:06 <MavJS> +1 next topic :)
14:50:09 <KageSenshi> #action jipang_menjerit  / kagesenshi to contact the marketing team for inputs for presskit
14:50:13 <KageSenshi> ok
14:50:21 <KageSenshi> #topic new action items
14:50:27 <KageSenshi> erm
14:50:39 <KageSenshi> i think we've added the one covered in the agenda earlier
14:50:52 <KageSenshi> next topic?
14:50:53 <rbergeron> which one?
14:51:06 <KageSenshi> rbergeron, announce to fudcon-announce
14:51:13 <KageSenshi> the funding request
14:51:15 <rbergeron> you mean just announce?
14:51:23 * rbergeron just sent it - i need to get it approved through the queue
14:51:29 <KageSenshi> ah
14:51:35 <KageSenshi> cool :)
14:52:21 <KageSenshi> rbergeron, anything / any info you need for next meeting?
14:52:27 <KageSenshi> i'll add that into action item
14:52:45 <rbergeron> not offhand, i think it's important we get things like costs for shirts, food, etc. nailed down
14:52:51 <rbergeron> so we can know what budget we have for travel requests
14:53:10 <KageSenshi> ok
14:53:29 <KageSenshi> #action KageSenshi to nail down the budget document
14:53:30 <rbergeron> and if there are any additional travel costs (not sure how far hotel is from airport, mass transit from airport to hotel, etc.)
14:53:45 <KageSenshi> right
14:54:32 <rbergeron> i think people can generally cover bus/subway things themselves but if it's $50 cab only then we need to disclose that kind of thing
14:54:33 <KageSenshi> #info budget should also include additional travel cost (eg: bus, train, etc)
14:55:02 <rbergeron> well - i am not endorsing paying for little things like that
14:55:13 <rbergeron> but if there is a major cost that needs to be considered along with air travel
14:55:21 <KageSenshi> it wont reach myr20 ~= USD7
14:55:32 <KageSenshi> for public transport
14:55:45 <rbergeron> esp. since reimbursing people one by one for $7 really sucks
14:55:49 <KageSenshi> nonetheless, i think we should put it into the budget doc, as we'll need the info for travel kit anyway :)
14:56:12 <KageSenshi> so that people bring enough local currencies
14:56:13 <rbergeron> but it's nice to know for when people arrive - do i need to find small amounts of money so i can get on a train, etc.
14:56:16 <rbergeron> exactly
14:56:23 <rbergeron> since i have no local currency
14:56:25 <rbergeron> :)
14:56:37 <KageSenshi> :)
14:56:47 <KageSenshi> ok
