2019-01-10 21:00:14 | <soenke> Hi there |
2019-01-10 21:01:00 | <patdavid> howdy |
2019-01-10 21:02:07 | <houz> hi |
2019-01-10 21:02:07 | <gingercoons_> hey all |
2019-01-10 21:02:18 | <soenke> Hi Pat, hope all is well, have been meaning to write to thank you for offering support in setting up the website, hope u are ok with what we have now :) |
2019-01-10 21:03:27 | <soenke> everyone - we have a whopping 16 submissions as of this afternoon. That doesn't strike me as a very high figure. What is your experience - will more submissions come the last days before the deadline? Or should we extend the deadlineß |
2019-01-10 21:04:08 | <houz> there are some more to come. one from darktable, one from klens, and some from pixls |
2019-01-10 21:04:09 | <patdavid> Oh! I'm just happy you got something you like :) |
2019-01-10 21:04:30 | <patdavid> i will likely have a BOF, presentation, and State Of submissions coming |
2019-01-10 21:04:41 | <houz> i think the cfp wasn't really published at all this year, so i am glad that we got anything at all |
2019-01-10 21:04:42 | <gingercoons_> submissions do often come in at the last minute. but it might be worth a reminder email to the mailing list as well |
2019-01-10 21:04:53 | <patdavid> tehre may be some others from the pixls community, i need to see |
2019-01-10 21:05:07 | <houz> patdavid: photowalk? |
2019-01-10 21:05:09 | <patdavid> there was talk of a couple of projects presenting as well (G'MIC, PhotoFlow) |
2019-01-10 21:05:27 | <patdavid> houz: yes, but i wasn't sure how best to submit that - should I use the submission form for that? |
2019-01-10 21:05:39 | <houz> iirc we used the form in the past |
2019-01-10 21:05:42 | * a-l-e (~a-l-e@213.55.176.163) has joined |
2019-01-10 21:06:42 | <soenke> what do y'all suggest to circulate the cfp beyond the ldm list? Can someone post it via the lgm social media accounts for instance? |
2019-01-10 21:06:52 | <soenke> sorry lgm list |
2019-01-10 21:06:59 | <patdavid> houz: ok, i'll include it |
2019-01-10 21:07:53 | <a-l-e> https://twitter.com/lgmeeting?lang=en |
2019-01-10 21:08:15 | <a-l-e> lgm retweeted the lgw tweet... |
2019-01-10 21:08:34 | <a-l-e> and tweeted on dec 20 : - =) |
2019-01-10 21:08:37 | <gingercoons_> and also tweeted about it directly: https://twitter.com/LGMeeting/status/1075979175343808512 |
2019-01-10 21:08:58 | <gingercoons_> (sorry for the jinx, a-l-e :D ) |
2019-01-10 21:09:25 | <patdavid> pixls tweeted about it Jan 7 |
2019-01-10 21:09:49 | <patdavid> i'll tweet again now |
2019-01-10 21:09:52 | <houz> create list might be a target, too |
2019-01-10 21:10:11 | <houz> ah, twitter, i forgot that that is a thing |
2019-01-10 21:10:21 | <patdavid> i can try GIMP twitter too |
2019-01-10 21:11:30 | <houz> darktable twitter can retweet |
2019-01-10 21:12:04 | <soenke> cool thx. never sure about the actual reach of twitter/fb/et al but am only on so many software-related mailing lists... so pls share widely if not already shared... |
2019-01-10 21:12:30 | <houz> no, dt can't retweet, it asks me for a phone number to log in |
2019-01-10 21:12:37 | * larisa (~lara@host-79-78-25-247.static.as9105.net) has joined |
2019-01-10 21:12:43 | <soenke> hi lara :) |
2019-01-10 21:12:51 | <larisa> hi all apologies for tardiness |
2019-01-10 21:13:32 | <larisa> how's it going? how far did you get? |
2019-01-10 21:13:36 | <soenke> Larisa, for the LGM in London, how many submissions did you get? We have 16 as of today |
2019-01-10 21:14:16 | <larisa> mmm, that's low, we gotta up the marketing... i think we did not have more that 50 at the end |
2019-01-10 21:14:21 | <larisa> but can have a look |
2019-01-10 21:14:24 | <larisa> just a sec |
2019-01-10 21:14:27 | <a-l-e> soenke, most of the submission come in at the end... normally... |
2019-01-10 21:14:50 | <soenke> on the lgm twitter account - can someone change the head visual to 2019? logo is on the website |
2019-01-10 21:15:09 | <soenke> ok... I thought this is the end :) |
2019-01-10 21:15:22 | <a-l-e> ... i'll open an issue on github... |
2019-01-10 21:15:56 | <gingercoons_> I've just done a new tweet in case anyone wants something fresh to RT |
2019-01-10 21:16:58 | <soenke> just saw this https://www.pro-linux.de/news/1/26649/libre-graphics-meeting-2019-sucht-nach-beitr%C3%83%C6%92%C3%82%C2%A4gen.html and http://www.linux-magazin.de/news/libre-graphics-meeting-2019-sucht-noch-vortragende-und-helfer/ - thx to whoever posted that |
2019-01-10 21:16:59 | <a-l-e> soenke, do you want this logo on twitter? |
2019-01-10 21:17:01 | <a-l-e> https://libregraphicsmeeting.org/2019/wp/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/LGM_Logo_final_07-12-2018_final_03-weiss.svg |
2019-01-10 21:17:05 | <soenke> sure |
2019-01-10 21:17:19 | <larisa> it was 50 in the programme |
2019-01-10 21:17:24 | <soenke> or some other version of that visual |
2019-01-10 21:17:38 | <a-l-e> if have an wish, please add it to https://github.com/libregraphicsmeeting/infrastructure/issues/49 |
2019-01-10 21:17:42 | <a-l-e> : - ) |
2019-01-10 21:18:06 | <larisa> :-) |
2019-01-10 21:19:29 | <larisa> i'll send it around afew mailing lists too |
2019-01-10 21:19:51 | <soenke> ok asked Henrik to put it there |
2019-01-10 21:20:22 | <soenke> ok assuming we DON'T change the deadline, do you want to schedule a program committee sessions already to go through submissions? |
2019-01-10 21:21:17 | <larisa> it would be great to send a call for programme volunteers |
2019-01-10 21:22:31 | <gingercoons_> definitely. we need to re-mobilize/re-form the programme committee |
2019-01-10 21:22:34 | <houz> i'd add a deadline extension |
2019-01-10 21:22:52 | <soenke> houz, what's a good new deadline? |
2019-01-10 21:23:00 | <larisa> if there's not enough work submitted till 15th, we can move deadline for 23rd (next irc meeting) and use that to do most of the programme delegation and oorganising |
2019-01-10 21:23:18 | <houz> dunno, it's just my gut feeling. making noise now and having the deadline in 5 days might be too short |
2019-01-10 21:25:44 | <a-l-e> personally, i'd like a program committee that is a bit more active on filtering the propositions and helps the contributors to focus on interesting topics. |
2019-01-10 21:26:17 | <a-l-e> last year i've heared of a few people that were not really happy with the first talks (i left early, so i don't know how it went on). |
2019-01-10 21:26:20 | <gingercoons_> that's a departure from the previous method of accepting everything, as long as it's not spam |
2019-01-10 21:26:38 | <a-l-e> yes and no. |
2019-01-10 21:26:49 | <a-l-e> we can ask the people to better focus their talks. |
2019-01-10 21:28:49 | <gingercoons_> one thing that some other (more conferency) events do is offer mentorship to new speakers by setting them up with people who have more experience |
2019-01-10 21:28:52 | <soenke> another issue - sponsoring, I had no success in contacting IBM and RedHat, any suggestions? Also: other options? I Think Google might come thru again with funding f travel / video, Dave suggested that at least |
2019-01-10 21:29:24 | <houz> did you manage to tap some public funding? |
2019-01-10 21:31:05 | <larisa> how about mozilla? https://wiki.mozilla.org/MOSS |
2019-01-10 21:35:07 | * jghali__ (~jghali@62.212.108.112) has joined |
2019-01-10 21:35:13 | <soenke> public funding - yes, so we have basic stuff like venue costs, tech costs covered |
2019-01-10 21:35:23 | * ChanServ gives channel operator status to jghali__ |
2019-01-10 21:35:43 | <houz> nice |
2019-01-10 21:36:05 | <soenke> larisa, anyone have a direct mozilla contact? Going through generic channels didn't work elsewhere |
2019-01-10 21:37:59 | <larisa> i have one contact but not in the funding crowd... was wondering if lgm would like to invite them formally to visit? |
2019-01-10 21:38:23 | <larisa> and i can then build on that, it's worth a try |
2019-01-10 21:38:45 | <soenke> that would be cool. we can also combine their visit at LGM with a visit at one of the IT research centers if that makes it easier to get them to come.. so pls try. |
2019-01-10 21:38:56 | * jghali_ has quit (Ping timeout: 244 seconds) |
2019-01-10 21:39:25 | <larisa> ok, i'll cc you in |
2019-01-10 21:41:36 | <soenke> also fyi - we are working on a zero waste concept for the event, and will also publish a fair trade / organic food map of the city on the website. no worries, it'll include places like https://www.veganeria-sb.de/ and http://www.kalinskibrueder.de/ (vegan currywurst) and http://www.dieburgerei.de/ and tons of other stuff. |
2019-01-10 21:42:13 | <soenke> and of course lots of cultural sites :) |
2019-01-10 21:42:43 | <larisa> fab |
2019-01-10 21:43:21 | <larisa> just to check - we're extending deadline on 15th? |
2019-01-10 21:43:46 | <soenke> I think to Jan 23, which makes sense, no? |
2019-01-10 21:44:23 | <larisa> im tweeting now... |
2019-01-10 21:46:03 | <soenke> also: we have a media facade and various other options to display art works. Should we ask people to submit suggestions through the submission site or discuss this on the mailing list? |
2019-01-10 21:48:31 | <a-l-e> soenke, for artwork i would do a separate submission form... |
2019-01-10 21:50:19 | <soenke> ok. we can have a much later deadline for that as well. will specify the options (site media facade etc) and then create another form. |
2019-01-10 21:51:28 | <soenke> ok anything else I can take back to the local team? |
2019-01-10 21:52:08 | <a-l-e> sounds good |
2019-01-10 21:52:36 | <larisa> +1 |
2019-01-10 21:53:01 | <soenke> ok then... how about: Gute Nacht for now? |
2019-01-10 21:53:16 | <larisa> zuper ;-) |
2019-01-10 21:54:28 | <soenke> best and thx to all |
2019-01-10 21:55:02 | <a-l-e> gute nacht you all |
