18:10:36 <igorps> #topic FUDCon Panama booklet content
18:10:57 <igorps> aeperezt: any news from xhaksx?
18:12:37 <aeperezt> Booklet, well I have the files but we have some missing information
18:13:03 <igorps> what information more do we need?
18:13:51 <aeperezt> jsmith words, are missing I do recall that he send it to tatica I have send some email to see if she can mail me the files but still no anwser on that
18:14:31 <aeperezt> even send an email to jsmith requesting him to send me the info and the same still waiting for an anwser
18:14:44 <igorps> let's ping her on the mailing list
18:14:56 <igorps> I'll add a comment on the minutes email
18:15:13 <aeperezt> the bad news on this is that the sponsor for the printing of booklet will not be able to make on time so
18:15:26 <aeperezt> if we want to have it we need to pay for the print
18:15:46 <igorps> #info tatica needs to send jsmith words to aeperezt
18:16:05 <igorps> aeperezt: we should have it on the wiki at least
18:16:09 <aeperezt> I also wrote to jsmith rewarding that with no answer
18:16:53 <igorps> I think we can start putting the booklet wiki pages in place
18:17:16 <aeperezt> I have hacks files so we can add it as quick as we get the info and see if we can print it.
18:17:38 <aeperezt> but then we have to pay on it.
18:18:20 <igorps> Probably not in time to to receive budget for that
18:18:40 <igorps> we could work with reimbursement but I don't know if you're able to do that
18:18:53 <dMaggot> aeperezt: what's the cost of the printing?
18:18:57 <igorps> since printing costs might be expensive
18:19:10 <aeperezt> dMaggot, around 500
18:20:06 <aeperezt> I was thinking on having only the first page print in colors the othes on B&W to archive a less that 500
18:20:25 <igorps> if you are willing to pay for it don't forget to keep the receipts
18:20:37 <igorps> aeperezt: sounds good to me
18:20:52 <aeperezt> igorps, yes that is what i'm planning
18:21:40 <dMaggot> aeperezt: probably bluescale instead of B&W, if possible
18:21:46 <dMaggot> aeperezt: that's more fedorian, I think
18:21:55 <igorps> #info sponsor not able to print in time, local team will need to pay for it and get reimbursed
18:21:58 <aeperezt> I will have to check on that
18:22:28 <igorps> it depends of blue scale price
18:22:41 <aeperezt> igorps, yes it may
18:23:24 <igorps> ok, so let's work on getting all the information we need
18:23:25 <dMaggot> aeperezt: well, let's have a meeting on how to share the price among the local team sometime this weekend
18:23:26 <aeperezt> I will update on that over the week as soon as we get the files if no files no printed booklet
18:23:42 <igorps> aeperezt: +1
18:23:58 <igorps> we need the files so there's no booklet
18:24:21 <igorps> ok, next topic
18:24:39 <igorps> #topic Fudcon Panama Design t-shirt
18:24:55 <igorps> aeperezt: did you get a reply from the sponsor?
18:24:57 <aeperezt> the main file is Jsmith message
18:26:00 <aeperezt> igorps, nope I been calling them and send emails to them I think will get a response after my last email, on monday as I got a out of the office replay be back on monday
18:26:03 <aeperezt> this time
18:26:55 <igorps> ok, so still waiting on that
18:27:00 <aeperezt> dMaggot, I got a meet request from them after you deliver the posters but they did not set date so kind of argggg
18:27:12 <aeperezt> igorps, yes
18:27:31 <aeperezt> igorps, what else is on the agenda
18:27:33 <igorps> I hope they can do it on time
18:27:43 <igorps> media distribution
18:27:49 <igorps> and the schedule
18:27:52 <aeperezt> igorps, I think they can
18:27:58 <igorps> ok
18:28:01 <igorps> next topic
18:28:12 <igorps> #topic Media distribution
18:28:24 <igorps> I created a ticket for that:
18:28:36 <igorps> #link https://fedorahosted.org/fudcon-planning/ticket/154
18:28:56 <igorps> Unfortunately the Fedora 15 release is too close to the event
18:29:13 <igorps> so we need to figure out a way to distribute media
18:29:16 <aeperezt> igorps, right
18:29:54 <igorps> We can prepare a specific computer to burn medias on the event
18:30:14 <igorps> as well as create usb sticks for those who bring them
18:30:24 <igorps> but is just suggestion
18:30:26 <aeperezt> igorps, i think we can bring some f14 medias and distribute them
18:30:49 <aeperezt> igorps, people who want f15 will have to take burn media
18:31:14 <igorps> aeperezt: sounds good
18:31:18 <aeperezt> dMaggot, do you think the media burner that was on flisol can be at the fudcon
18:31:22 <igorps> I have just few medias with me
18:31:43 <igorps> but we can use them
18:31:43 <dMaggot> aeperezt: lemme check
18:31:50 <aeperezt> igorps, yes bring all the media of f14 to the fudcon and we give that
18:32:28 <igorps> Maybe jsmith and dgilmore could help to bring some more
18:32:39 <aeperezt> igorps, if the media burner that was on flisol can be used on the fudcon then we just need blank dvd to burn
18:32:52 <dgilmore> sorry im in the fedora blocker meeting and not paying much attention here
18:32:55 <aeperezt> igorps, that can burn 10 medias at the time
18:33:07 <igorps> dgilmore: no problem :)
18:33:17 * dgilmore will be releaseing F-15 from panama
18:33:32 <igorps> aeperezt: that should do the trick!
18:33:41 <dMaggot> dgilmore: yes, there are discotecs with wifi here :P
18:34:48 <igorps> #idea Use an automatic media burner to burn F15 and bring some F14 discs
18:34:58 <aeperezt> igorps, I think we can do that
18:35:11 <igorps> I'll update the ticket later with this information
18:35:17 <aeperezt> dMaggot, please help me with the media burner for then
18:35:25 <igorps> aeperezt: nice
18:35:33 <dMaggot> aeperezt: yes, I'm asking my friend right now
18:35:47 <igorps> when I get to Panama I can help you guys to set it up if needed
18:35:58 <dMaggot> #action dMaggot will find out if there's a media burner available for FUDCon
18:36:02 <aeperezt> igorps, let me introduce to you our newest member of Fedora Ambassadors Panama LoKoMurdoK so he is working on the Fudcon now
18:36:23 <aeperezt> dMaggot, perfect

18:37:44 <igorps> aeperezt: Wow! That was not my point! :)
18:37:49 <igorps> last meeting I talked to Jared about a closing session
18:37:51 <aeperezt> lolo
18:38:25 <igorps> it would be nice to have a closing session with everyone together
18:38:53 <aeperezt> igorps, well thinking on that we I should say LoKoMurdoK were working on getting the fudPub a nice touch
18:39:08 <aeperezt> igorps, yes
18:39:26 <igorps> but I'm not sure if the rooms support it
18:39:52 <igorps> but having a final work from the FLP and the local organizers will be nice to end the event
18:40:13 <aeperezt> igorps, we are kind of on the same page
18:40:42 <igorps> I added it to the schedule
18:41:12 <igorps> about the lightning talks probably one session is enough, what do you think?
18:41:13 <aeperezt> we have quote 130 people at a local bowling place, that will include drinks, and meals on saturday
18:41:24 <aeperezt> thinking that we can do the close there
18:41:26 <igorps> I like bowling!
18:41:40 <aeperezt> LoKoMurdoK, please give the info
18:41:42 <igorps> aeperezt: that might work as well!
18:42:12 <LoKoMurdoK> ok
18:42:59 <igorps> #idea Do the closing session during FUDPub
18:43:29 <igorps> can we move to the other topics?
