2018-03-07 21:11:47 | <alewwb> hi there! |
2018-03-07 21:11:57 | * laraaaa (~lara@host-79-78-25-247.static.as9105.net) has joined |
2018-03-07 21:12:44 | <alewwb> is there anybody here for today's IRC session? |
2018-03-07 21:14:53 | <laraaaa> moi |
2018-03-07 21:15:02 | <alewwb> great :) |
2018-03-07 21:15:10 | <laraaaa> but more to lurk :) |
2018-03-07 21:15:38 | <alewwb> :) |
2018-03-07 21:15:41 | <laraaaa> but if there's no one else - what was the agenda for tonight? |
2018-03-07 21:15:54 | * igor_novikov has quit (Quit: Page closed) |
2018-03-07 21:16:09 | <alewwb> I thought in giving an update |
2018-03-07 21:16:24 | <alewwb> and the most important thing is to create a small comission to work on the program |
2018-03-07 21:16:31 | * igor_novikov (5275ec1c@gateway/web/freenode/ip.82.117.236.28) has joined |
2018-03-07 21:16:39 | <alewwb> to match program and time and spaces |
2018-03-07 21:16:46 | <laraaaa> ok, lets wait for a wee bit and see who else show up |
2018-03-07 21:16:53 | <alewwb> and set a date to work on that |
2018-03-07 21:17:10 | <alewwb> meanwhile we can talk a bit about the letter of invitation :) |
2018-03-07 21:17:24 | <alewwb> because I was looking the reference you sent me |
2018-03-07 21:17:34 | <laraaaa> sure |
2018-03-07 21:17:40 | <alewwb> and I don't know if that is what we need |
2018-03-07 21:17:54 | <laraaaa> let me check it again |
2018-03-07 21:17:57 | <alewwb> that letter of invitation is one asked by the Spanish authorities |
2018-03-07 21:18:08 | <alewwb> when you cannot show a reservation in a hotel |
2018-03-07 21:18:24 | <alewwb> in the case of sleeping in somebody's house, for instance |
2018-03-07 21:18:32 | <alewwb> and it's expeded by the police |
2018-03-07 21:18:44 | <alewwb> I cannot write it |
2018-03-07 21:19:10 | <laraaaa> in my experience with visas (an boy there were many) it was normal from a host organisation to write up a letter confirming participation |
2018-03-07 21:19:28 | <alewwb> ok |
2018-03-07 21:19:36 | <alewwb> so we write it, not the police |
2018-03-07 21:19:38 | <gwidion> hello |
2018-03-07 21:19:42 | <laraaaa> then the rest is up to the person travelling to wherever |
2018-03-07 21:19:51 | <alewwb> hi gwidion |
2018-03-07 21:19:55 | <laraaaa> yup, that was normally the case |
2018-03-07 21:19:59 | <laraaaa> hiya |
2018-03-07 21:20:11 | <laraaaa> but let me check that website |
2018-03-07 21:20:17 | <gwidion> so - let's write up some schedule! |
2018-03-07 21:20:22 | <alewwb> :) |
2018-03-07 21:20:39 | <igor_novikov> hi all! |
2018-03-07 21:21:05 | <igor_novikov> about website - please fix IRC address |
2018-03-07 21:21:27 | <alewwb> right now, :) |
2018-03-07 21:21:47 | <igor_novikov> it's not a good providing traffic for fishing sites |
2018-03-07 21:23:25 | <alewwb> ok, done, thanks for the feedback :) |
2018-03-07 21:23:53 | <laraaaa> ok, just one quick note for the invitation letter - on spanish consulate in london - it actually does not say one needs a letter, however, they do say that it may be the case pending individual circumstances... |
2018-03-07 21:24:15 | <alewwb> I think it's the case of some countries |
2018-03-07 21:24:26 | <laraaaa> so i reckon, what you wrote is okay as an evidence that people who may need to apply for visa, have a reason for travel... |
2018-03-07 21:24:38 | <alewwb> there're two ppl right now that asked for LOI |
2018-03-07 21:25:24 | <alewwb> as I see, the letter of invitation that I talked about is needed to enter not to go out |
2018-03-07 21:25:29 | <laraaaa> that is not too much work then :) |
2018-03-07 21:25:48 | <alewwb> ok then |
2018-03-07 21:26:07 | <alewwb> I'll send it and let's see if its valid |
2018-03-07 21:26:32 | <alewwb> regarding schedule, gwidion |
2018-03-07 21:26:47 | <alewwb> I was thinking in giving a brief update for our side |
2018-03-07 21:26:56 | <alewwb> and to set a group to work on program |
2018-03-07 21:27:00 | <alewwb> and a date to do it |
2018-03-07 21:27:08 | <alewwb> it should be a short IRC session |
2018-03-07 21:27:21 | <alewwb> we've to check igor_novikov proposal, as well |
2018-03-07 21:27:57 | <igor_novikov> that would be great :) |
2018-03-07 21:28:20 | <alewwb> maybe we can do it that first so you don't have to stay to all the chat |
2018-03-07 21:29:27 | <igor_novikov> well, we spent 5 years for sK1 2.0 development and would like to announce the result |
2018-03-07 21:29:44 | <alewwb> sounds great |
2018-03-07 21:30:29 | <igor_novikov> also people could be interested by _export_ into CDR file format ;) |
2018-03-07 21:31:56 | <alewwb> from my side I don't have any problem in accepting another presentation outside the deadline, we've been quite flexible with that and we've more than enough space and time |
2018-03-07 21:32:35 | <alewwb> what kind of format are you thinking about? |
2018-03-07 21:33:07 | <igor_novikov> We don't need long-term presentation. Just 5-10 min, no more |
2018-03-07 21:34:36 | <alewwb> as gwidion commented it might fit into a BoF |
2018-03-07 21:34:46 | <alewwb> and into the State of the Libre Graphics session |
2018-03-07 21:34:59 | <igor_novikov> sure |
2018-03-07 21:37:01 | <alewwb> I think you can fill the participation form so we can have more information about your proposal and we can study it a bit |
2018-03-07 21:37:34 | <igor_novikov> where is the form? |
2018-03-07 21:38:02 | <igor_novikov> I cannot find it on the website |
2018-03-07 21:38:12 | <alewwb> because it's closed :) |
2018-03-07 21:38:14 | <alewwb> wait a second |
2018-03-07 21:39:54 | <alewwb> ok, I've to check something I will open it after this meeting and I send you the link by email |
2018-03-07 21:40:05 | <alewwb> so you can send the proposal |
2018-03-07 21:40:10 | <igor_novikov> great! |
2018-03-07 21:40:48 | <alewwb> so we might focus on program right now? gwidion laraaaa ? |
2018-03-07 21:41:34 | <igor_novikov> see you! ;) |
2018-03-07 21:41:47 | <alewwb> see you, igor_novikov ! :) |
2018-03-07 21:43:51 | * ankh still tempted to offer scanning-for-print & large-image bof, thought the deadline had long passed |
2018-03-07 21:48:20 | <alewwb> so, a quick update |
2018-03-07 21:48:43 | <alewwb> btw, ankh there's space for BoFs) |
2018-03-07 21:48:57 | <alewwb> we've replied to all the proposals right now |
2018-03-07 21:49:19 | <alewwb> we're waiting for feedback in some cases |
2018-03-07 21:49:33 | * flevopolder has quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) |
2018-03-07 21:50:19 | * flevopolder (~r@2001:981:d120:1:83:4ff:fe82:b306) has joined |
2018-03-07 21:50:52 | <alewwb> Ale was working on this part as well, but he needs time to end other tasks and he's a bit out right now |
2018-03-07 21:51:08 | <alewwb> so we need to create some kind of small comission to end the program part |
2018-03-07 21:51:17 | <alewwb> basically to match possible slots and program proposals |
2018-03-07 21:51:59 | <alewwb> and we need to set a day to do it —I don't think we'll need more time— |
2018-03-07 21:52:33 | <alewwb> at the other hand the local team is working on some previous sessions |
2018-03-07 21:52:54 | <alewwb> to promote the meeting and connect it to local communities |
2018-03-07 21:53:00 | <alewwb> +we've the second one this Saturday |
2018-03-07 21:53:07 | <alewwb> and next one on 19th March |
2018-03-07 21:53:18 | <alewwb> after that we'll focus on the meeting itself |
2018-03-07 21:53:23 | <alewwb> communication and logistics |
2018-03-07 21:53:45 | <alewwb> so that's the state of the question right now |
2018-03-07 21:54:23 | <alewwb> "state of the question" probably doesn't make any sense in English :) |
2018-03-07 21:54:28 | <alewwb> that's my update |
2018-03-07 21:55:07 | <alewwb> is anybody out there? or am I ranting alone? :) |
2018-03-07 21:56:15 | <laraaaa> no, you're not alone :) |
2018-03-07 21:57:11 | <alewwb> great |
2018-03-07 21:57:15 | <alewwb> :) |
2018-03-07 21:57:50 | <laraaaa> sounds like you have a plan in place - hope the stuff i sent you will help for local organisation |
2018-03-07 21:57:59 | <laraaaa> there are some pretty detailed lists |
2018-03-07 21:58:07 | <alewwb> ok |
2018-03-07 21:58:43 | <laraaaa> also, i did not confirm, i can confirm now - i am arriving on 25th |
2018-03-07 21:59:05 | <alewwb> there're a lot of different txts |
2018-03-07 21:59:05 | <alewwb> I haven't checked them all |
2018-03-07 21:59:06 | <alewwb> ok |
2018-03-07 22:00:10 | <laraaaa> all-task-list is pretty useful |
2018-03-07 22:00:27 | <laraaaa> that is for the venues, like a check-list |
2018-03-07 22:00:59 | <alewwb> great |
2018-03-07 22:00:59 | <alewwb> :) |
2018-03-07 22:00:59 | <alewwb> I'm having a look at it right now |
2018-03-07 22:01:07 | <houz> reading backlog, a 5 minute talk could be a lightning talk? |
2018-03-07 22:01:11 | <laraaaa> there is a press release, but it is theme specific, so it will need some work |
2018-03-07 22:01:50 | <alewwb> ok, we didn't talk about press releases in the local group yet |
2018-03-07 22:01:52 | <alewwb> that will be useful |
2018-03-07 22:02:09 | <laraaaa> glad to be of help |
2018-03-07 22:02:31 | <alewwb> houz: indeed |
2018-03-07 22:02:38 | <laraaaa> i have to go now - but will follow the progress |
2018-03-07 22:02:45 | <alewwb> ok laraaaa , thanks! |
2018-03-07 22:02:50 | <laraaaa> cheerio |
2018-03-07 22:03:12 | * laraaaa has quit (Quit: Leaving) |
2018-03-07 22:03:44 | <houz> does anyone know the state of video recording? had the ccc voc people been booked? |
2018-03-07 22:04:06 | <alewwb> no, I don't know and I want to know as well |
2018-03-07 22:05:22 | <alewwb> I think Dave and Jehan are the ones to tell us the updates about that issue, but I think they aren't here |
2018-03-07 22:07:27 | <houz> at least jehan said that he won't have time before hand |
2018-03-07 22:12:10 | <alewwb> so anybody here wants to participate in the program comisssion? |
2018-03-07 22:14:19 | * igor_novikov has quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds) |
2018-03-07 22:14:38 | * frank__ (~frank@2601:284:8280:3a6d:596:2354:b58b:2e56) has joined |
2018-03-07 22:17:32 | <alewwb> ok, I see there's no much interest nor people in this meeting, I've to go |
2018-03-07 22:18:37 | <alewwb> please stay in touch if you want to help us in that task |
