He's assuming full responsibilities starting October 3rd. 01:37:15 <jflory> More details on the Fedora Magazine. It's the top post. 01:37:24 <award3535> so, how does jzb play in the role 01:37:26 * jflory would grab it but is on mobile right now 01:37:53 <jflory> jzb: After Oct. 3, bexelbie would be the new point of contact just like decause was before, as far as I'm aware. 01:38:05 <jflory> * award3535 01:39:11 <award3535> jflory7 does he have an intentions on coming to a FAmNA meeting 01:39:23 * juggler___ has iffy wifi service :( 01:39:39 <jflory> #info Fedora 25 Alpha is now available this week!

More information on the Fedora Magazine. 01:41:44 <jflory> award3535: In my experiences, he's a very approachable person and easy to reach, so it shouldn't be difficult to communicate with him. Meetings may be a challenge but I think it will be alright 01:42:19 <jflory> We got lucky before when the FCL was based from the US. 01:42:28 <award3535> the only thing that I see that could present a problem is getting Purchase Orders approved 01:42:49 <award3535> it just throws a little delay in the process 01:42:55 <kk4ewt> like its not an issue now? 01:43:11 <jflory> Oh, hmm. If we discuss that ahead of time and know what to do when it comes up, it should be easier to handle. 01:43:26 <linuxmodder> .hello linuxmodder 01:43:27 <zodbot> linuxmodder: linuxmodder 'Corey W Sheldon' <sheldon.corey@openmailbox.org> 01:43:30 <jflory> Probably something to bring up with him sooner than later so we're all on the same page. 01:43:32 <linuxmodder> sorry I'm so late 01:43:38 <linuxmodder> and yes kk4ewt I did on my blof 01:43:42 <linuxmodder> blog* 01:43:46 <kk4ewt> well i think we have gotten a handle on most things this year 01:44:33 <award3535> kk4ewt yes POs have been difficult lately 01:45:02 <linuxmodder> kk4ewt, award3535 heads up mattdm via email today stated redhat is planning a big presence at LISA 2016 and we may not need to worry about sponsorship this year 01:45:17 <kk4ewt> they always have been, but this year i think this group has been on the events better than the previous years 01:45:21 <jflory> Oh, that would be great. 01:45:39 * jflory crosses fingers 01:45:47 <jflory> I have a lot of email to catch up on 01:46:48 <award3535> linuxmodder he usually does, but we are standing by to help 01:47:21 <linuxmodder> award3535, from the jest of what he was saying seems like another 4-6k sponsorship from Rh is likely 01:47:55 <award3535> now that is way too cool, and we are going to just ride the coat tail as usual I presume 01:47:56 <linuxmodder> which includes 3 expo and training passes 01:48:25 <linuxmodder> award3535, that is what he was saying yes only projected fedora outlay would be travel 01:48:59 <award3535> no worries and its very minimal for your expense If I remember 01:50:10 <linuxmodder> <= $50 if last year is a marker 01:50:26 <award3535> no worries 01:50:37 <linuxmodder> but that was in my backyard last eyar this year its Boston 01:50:59 <juggler___> btw, filed ticket 424 for Paradox to review. no hurry necessary.. 01:51:30 <linuxmodder> jflory, ande any NE ambassadors take a look at expeditionhacks.com as well NYC hackathon Nov 10-12 01:52:15 <jflory> I'm going to be out of pocket Nov. 12. :( 01:52:31 <linuxmodder> will see if a booth is possible next week, the president of the sponsoring company reach out earlier this week 01:52:41 <jflory> Plus, I'm also wanting to save room for BrickHack in March again 01:53:08 <linuxmodder> award3535, just checking we are still ~ $4k for the rest of the term yes? 01:53:17 <award3535> jflory7 hopefully we will have budget 01:53:24 <award3535> linuxmodder stand by 01:53:24 <linuxmodder> if I was reading the budget right 01:53:26 <jflory> I won't be able to go in person, but I will be able to coordinate remotely if we can get the Ambassadors for it (I know cprofitt would be local). 01:53:29 * jflory nods 01:53:49 <jflory> March is a ways out, so we'll see how it goes. I'll see if I can swing a deal with the organizers like we did last year. 01:54:15 <kk4ewt> isnt march a new year as far as the budget is concerned 01:54:23 <linuxmodder> jflory, are you a mlh.io member ? if so try taht angle, I can as well 01:54:28 <linuxmodder> yeah 01:54:34 <linuxmodder> Q1 '17 01:54:36 <award3535> linuxmodder yes, the last sheet I posted was for 9/1/2016 01:55:15 <linuxmodder> award3535, roger just wanted to make sure before getting hard core talks with expeditionhacks or LISA going so i had good numbers 01:55:27 <jflory> Just something to keep in the back of mind for now - I'm excited about BrickHack because the reaction we got there was fantastic. Definitely more engaging than Bitcamp was I think. Bitcamp felt like more people trying to pass resumes to us or know if we would hire them or give them free things, lol. Outside of a small few but very personal interactions. 01:55:33 <kk4ewt> link for sheet 01:55:38 <award3535> kk4ewt you are correct but we didnt really get our numbers until april 01:55:55 <kk4ewt> almost may 01:56:00 <linuxmodder> kk4ewt, I can email it I have other stuff to send you anyway 01:56:06 <jflory> linuxmodder: I'm not a member of MLH, but I'm friends with a fair number of organizers now, so I might be able to get us something special 01:56:07 <juggler_> gonna bug out here folks. this flapping wifi is not a good thing... 01:56:24 <linuxmodder> juggler_, catch oyu on the flip 01:56:26 <juggler_> feel free to e-mail me if you have any showstoppers. 01:56:35 <jflory> Juggler see you around! 01:56:41 * juggler_ waves before he gets disconnected again 01:57:31 <jflory> Anyways, we can cross the BrickHack bridge when we get closer and know how the budget looks 01:57:39 <jflory> Anything else to cover tonight? 01:57:49 <award3535> ok folks I am going to end the meeting, the rain is starting and bright flashes have started, so before I loose power 01:57:56 * jflory needs to drive back to his apartment 01:58:09 <jflory> Stay safe tonight, award3535! 01:58:13 <kk4ewt> award3535, be safe and give julie a hug from me and the battleaxe 01:58:19 <linuxmodder> award3535, no lightning parties :) 01:58:19 <reher> stay dry and safe award3535 ! 01:58:25 <jflory> kk4ewt++ 01:58:58 <kk4ewt> yo know this is the first meeting i have been here from beginning to end in a long time 01:59:07 <award3535> Thank you kk4ewt, reher, linuxmodder, and jflory7 01:59:16 <award3535> yes mark the calendar 02:00:12 <linuxmodder> with school in session in days that is a miracle :) 02:00:31 <award3535> I have to work in the morning as well unless I get called in earlier because the server farm is offline on base 02:00:50 <linuxmodder> award3535, regardless be safe 02:01:19 * linuxmodder out 02:01:31 <award3535> I will thank you all 02:01:33 <jflory> Night, all! 02:01:36 <award3535> #endmeeting
