19:36:38 <jonatoni> #topic Open Floor
19:36:41 <thunderbirdtr> !
19:36:45 <jonatoni> Anything goes here.
19:36:52 <jonatoni> thunderbirdtr: yes please
19:36:57 * thunderbirdtr typing...
19:37:41 <thunderbirdtr> There is a small chance to do a "workshop" but is it okay to "make some swag" in here locally without waiting "shipment" time ?
19:37:53 <thunderbirdtr> It will be around December 20-30
19:38:00 <thunderbirdtr> Can it be arrive ?
19:38:03 <thunderbirdtr> eof*
19:40:02 <jonatoni> thunderbirdtr: usually we just ship the swag and we don't approve budget for swag - so i would suggest you to open a ticket about it now. If you cannot organize the workshop as planned it's fine, you can just use the swag for the next time you will do an event
19:40:38 <jonatoni> you have plenty of time if you open a ticket now
19:40:43 <jonatoni> and usually they are very fast
19:40:46 <thunderbirdtr> will do now
19:40:47 <thunderbirdtr> ok
19:40:49 <thunderbirdtr> thanks
19:40:58 <jonatoni> thunderbirdtr: awesome :)
19:41:09 <jonatoni> and good luck with the event :)
19:41:14 <thunderbirdtr> thanks

19:42:18 <jonatoni> Anything else?
19:43:15 <jonatoni> If that is all I will be ending the meeting in two (2) minutes.
19:45:15 <jonatoni> Goodbye everyone and see you all in two weeks :)
