01:08:54 <award3535> .famnaticket 118
01:08:56 <zodbot> award3535: #118 (LFNW 2016) – FAmNA Trac - https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/118
01:09:49 <award3535> the reason this was opened again was there was a problem with payment, I had jzb and mattdm looking into this, I should have a resolution soon
01:10:24 * jflory7 nods
01:10:28 <award3535> this event was during the reorganization of key players earlier this year
01:11:03 <award3535> .famnaticket 153
01:11:04 <zodbot> award3535: #153 (SeaGL 2016 Sponsorship) – FAmNA Trac - https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/153
01:11:37 <award3535> I will be taking care of the payment on this ticket next week, otherwise I believe we are on track
01:11:45 <jflory7> Sounds good to me
01:11:54 <jflory7> This one has some time to it too, fortunately
01:12:31 <award3535> but it helps when I can take care of the booth vice a PO
01:13:07 <jflory7> Makes sense.
01:13:43 <award3535> and yes well in advance is the key to sucess with events, when your getting things done in advance, keeps the fires low
01:14:01 <award3535> .famnaticket 154
01:14:02 <zodbot> award3535: #154 (FAmNA Budget sheet) – FAmNA Trac - https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/154
01:14:16 <award3535> no new updates on the sheet
01:14:22 <kk4ewt> you cook on coals not flame
01:15:13 <award3535> kk4ewt youre right, but it seems that some folks jump into the fire instead of letting the fuel turn into coals
01:15:24 <jflory7> I guess "no news is good news" with this ticket for now? ;)
01:15:54 <award3535> .famnaticket 155
01:15:55 <zodbot> award3535: #155 (Light swag request for Software Freedom Day 2016) – FAmNA Trac - https://fedorahosted.org/famna/ticket/155
01:16:26 <jflory7> There's some notes explaining this one in the ticket
01:16:33 <award3535> jflory7 since your are already scheduled for another event, what exactly are looking for
01:16:37 <jflory7> And an extra thing I'd like to make note of now too not in the ticket
01:17:28 <jflory7> award3535: I was asked for some Fedora swag from the organizers for this year's event to leave out. I wanted to open the ticket for discussion but I know the concerns with swag / budget, so I'm flexible on this one. The thing I wanted to note–
01:18:27 <kk4ewt> famnarequest filed on hackmit its easy to add more swag
01:18:42 <jflory7> There is a local event happening with the local FOSS program in November, for an Election Night Hackathon (same location, same organizers, probably a larger turnout since it's 2016). It would be possible to do one group of swag, use a smaller amount for SFD, and use the rest for the Election Night Hackathon (which I will be present at as an Ambassador).
01:18:53 <jflory7> SFD == Software Freedom Day
01:19:11 <kk4ewt> its SFD i think we should support them with some media and or stickers
01:19:28 <award3535> I agree
01:19:43 <kk4ewt> i thought SFD was in Sept
01:19:47 <jflory7> And I can keep a reserve for November too - two birds, one stone.
01:19:51 <jflory7> kk4ewt: It is, September 17th.
01:21:04 <kk4ewt> we can see how swag is for the november event
01:21:05 <award3535> jflroy7 so all you need is a little more swag to cover this event and the next?
01:21:33 <jflory7> award3535: Correct.
01:21:34 <kk4ewt> add SFD to the hackmit request
01:21:57 <kk4ewt> file a famna request for the november event please
01:22:09 <award3535> kk4ewt that would mean an earlier shipment date for swag
01:22:14 <jflory7> The SFD event is expected between 20-50 people, we're anticipating the Election Night Hackathon one to be even near 100-150
01:22:17 <jflory7> Will file.
01:22:30 <jflory7> #action jflory7 File a ticket for RIT Election Night Hackathon light swag request + create wiki page
01:22:40 <nb> .hello nb
01:22:41 <zodbot> nb: nb 'Nick Bebout' <nb@nb.zone>

01:22:46 <zodbot> Current chairs: award3535 jflory7 juggler_ kk4ewt nb reher
01:22:50 <kk4ewt> award3535,  i want to hold off shipping for Election night event till we get past OLF
01:22:51 <award3535> evening nb
01:22:54 <juggler_> nb!
01:23:22 <juggler_> forgot to say hello earlier to award, hello.. :)
01:23:32 <jflory7> Hey nb!
01:23:43 <kk4ewt> november event seems a event to dump left over media
01:23:50 <award3535> nb I sent you an email, you will be getting a box
01:24:05 <nb> award3535, oh, the stickers came in?
01:24:14 <nb> award3535, where are they going to? Evansville or New Harmony'/
01:24:14 <kk4ewt> whats in the box inquireing minds want to know
01:24:18 <award3535> kk4ewt I concur with event dump of media
01:24:18 <nb> either is fine
01:24:22 <nb> kk4ewt, stickers
01:25:15 <award3535> kk4ewt that is what I requested shipping for, the other box is going to reher with some items to get him started in the Miami area
01:25:20 <kk4ewt> New Harmony
01:25:57 <nb> kk4ewt, ok
01:25:59 <kk4ewt> award3535, i know but we need to annouce to the rest of FAmNA
01:26:22 <nb> i thought award3535 had access to ship stuff himself now?
01:26:34 <kk4ewt> address i had for you in ups
01:26:55 <nb> kk4ewt, that's fine.  I was just checking to see if it was coming to my ups store box or my home, new harmony is home, which is fine
01:26:56 <award3535> I do but like kk4ewt says I do not have the addresses
01:27:09 <nb> oh ok
01:27:23 <nb> so did you send kk4ewt some stickers for east?
01:27:29 <nb> and paradoxguitarist for west?
01:27:33 <kk4ewt> well i could have given you addresses
01:27:33 <award3535> yes, and yes
01:27:35 * nb didn't realize the stickers had came in
01:27:42 <jflory7> Anyways, for this ticket, we can merge the Software Freedom Day request with HACKMIT swag shipping, and then I can save a stash of those for the Election Night Hackathon in November.
01:27:55 <award3535> nb you also have extra for Canada
01:28:02 <kk4ewt> so now you can send a care package north of the border
01:28:24 * juggler_ didn't realize either
01:28:53 <kk4ewt> jflory7,  i dont want to it that way as i explained
01:29:01 * nb wonders if https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/9/91/Fedora-media-customs-letter-2010-11-02.pdf is still current
01:29:12 <kk4ewt> i want to hold off on shipping for the november event to dump media
01:29:20 <jflory7> kk4ewt: Ahhh, okay, I see
01:29:22 <jflory7> Got it
01:29:47 <kk4ewt> after all f25 is nov,dec

01:30:51 <juggler> thx award3535
01:31:14 <award3535> kk4ewt I can also take some media for the local Linux Desktop user group
01:31:30 <kk4ewt> reher, do you understand we have regional shippers for stuff
01:31:47 <kk4ewt> east coast, central and west coast
01:31:57 <reher> kk4ewt, thanks. I do, from other meeting and conversations with award3535
01:34:04 <award3535> #topic == Open Floor ===
01:35:06 * jflory7 can't think of anything pressing right now
01:35:36 <juggler> Paradox mentioned he'd be sending 24 media to me. Have not seen that come in yet. Sent him a followup text/IM. If anyone chats with him in passing, please ping him for me. Thanks.
01:35:42 <kk4ewt> i am contacting linuxmodder i am not seeing the event box and banners in transit from fosscon
01:35:43 <juggler> :)
01:35:43 <jflory7> Other than some news about the "future of Fedora" in terms of making it more modular (as an operating system). If that's something you'd like to learn more about (makes as a good talking point for the big picture future), see here: https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/modularity-infrastructure-design/
01:36:11 <award3535> nb I think that the letter from above is good
01:36:16 <jflory7> Plenty of event reports from across the world on the Community Blog as well this past week too if you want to see what's happening on the other sides of the planet
01:36:18 <kk4ewt> juggler did you file a famnarequest ticket
01:36:50 <juggler> he mentioned he had a bunch already and would be sending a small set for our small group.
01:37:07 <kk4ewt> juggler did you file a famnarequest ticket?
01:37:16 <juggler> no
01:37:18 <award3535> juggler, ticket also helps with shipping and budget costs
01:37:20 <kk4ewt> do it
01:37:24 <juggler> k
01:37:57 <award3535> I need to know if he ships, even though I can see it, I just dont want to check everyday for new items in ups
01:38:14 <award3535> its very time consuming
01:38:18 <kk4ewt> award3535, does the budget cover the shipping of stickers around
01:38:47 <award3535> yes, I will update the sheet with all the shipping
01:39:00 <award3535> and I look specifically for Fedora items when I check
01:39:08 <kk4ewt> it doesnt at the moment thanks
01:39:43 <award3535> I will have it updated for next weeks meeting, I just sent the boxes this afternoon
01:40:24 <juggler> Departing shortly for my next meeting...

01:45:11 <award3535> I have nothing else as well...

01:48:10 <jflory7> award3535++ Thank you for chairing tonight!
01:48:54 <award3535> kk4ewt I think so, but we worked through it, he actually spent alot of time looking around as well
01:50:41 <reher> some of my research took place as some restructuring was taking place which made me take a bit to find out who held certain roles.
01:52:27 <kk4ewt> ok he might of got his wiki up before the spammers
01:53:16 <award3535> reher, none the less you will just fine, remember ask questions if there is something you dont understand, you have a vast list of people that will help
01:54:11 <reher> I appreciate that. It's good to see familiar names between here, forums, fedora magazine, and the QA channel.

01:56:22 <reher> I'll make a note of all of this info. I'm mostly in the channel, just have been quiet until now :)
