| fugolini | Call roll please: | |
| fugolini | FrancescoUgolini | |
| spevack | Max Spevack | |
| fabian_a | FabianAffolter | |
| MrTom | ThomasCanniot | |
| fugolini | Great! | |
| fugolini | Actually I can't access the list archive page (i have to search my pswd), BTW, this is our agenda: | |
| fugolini | 1. Budget | |
| fugolini | 2. Release Events status | |
| fugolini | 3. Membership status | |
| fugolini | 4. t.b.d. | |
| spevack | Budget! | |
| fugolini | spevack: | |
| spevack | I've done quite a bit of budget work over the past few days | |
| spevack | FUDCon is about 90% paid for | |
| spevack | As far as ambassadors in different parts of the world go: | |
| spevack | North America is almost up to date -- the Ohio Linux Fest receipts are still coming | |
| spevack | In India, things are in order, more or less. | |
| spevack | APAC folks are getting their money. | |
| spevack | In EMEA, I actually need info from fabian_a and MrTom -- I need your receipts from events, especially yours MrTom, I want to make sure Fedora-fr gets the money that it needs. | |
| MrTom | ! | |
| spevack | fabian_a: i know you have some costs from OpenExpo, which I can give you the money for. | |
| fugolini | MrTom: | |
| spevack | yeah, go ahead MrTom | |
| MrTom | we are actively working on F10 install Fest, and I think we will go a bit further from the $500 first discussed budget. | |
| MrTom | but as we did not used the $1000 for the others past event, I hope this is doable. I wanted to ask fasmco about this. | |
| MrTom | eof | |
| spevack | MrTom: in the original budget, I set aside 1000 EUR for for whatever Fedora-fr needs. | |
| MrTom | ! | |
| spevack | So if you give me the bank information for where that money needs to go, I will get it to you | |
| spevack | go ahead | |
| MrTom | it was even $1500 with 3 events linked to them. | |
| spevack | 1000 EUR is about $1500 USD | |
| spevack | at least, it was when we made the budget :) | |
| spevack | so yeah, $1500, whatever that is in EUR | |
| MrTom | However, we must take into account that some day, the Tunisian boy will wake up and ask for financing. I still can't have them communicate in official channels about their projects unfortunately. | |
| spevack | well, when he wakes up, we'll deal with it then :) | |
| spevack | for the moment, you are the one who is here, and I don't want Fedora-fr to feel forgotten | |
| MrTom | sorry I did not see you were talking in EUR and not USD :) I'm quite happy the EUR is devaluating a bit at the moment :) | |
| spevack | me too :) | |
| spevack | according to google, $1500 USD = 1170 EUR | |
| MrTom | I don't feel forgotten and I know we can count on your precious suport | |
| spevack | MrTom: can you send me the bank account information? | |
| spevack | So I can pay Fedora-fr? | |
| MrTom | we are going to finance french live cd for our next 6 months F10 related events for example | |
| MrTom | yep i'll do it spevack | |
| spevack | MrTom: perfect. Live CD is a good use of money also | |
| spevack | i agree. | |
| spevack | fabian_a: i also don't want your costs from OpenExpo to be forgotten :) | |
| MrTom | we will also strongly communicate and aske attendees about having branded fedora usb key with a fedora preload on it | |
| fabian_a | spevack: i will send you the summary soon | |
| spevack | ok, that's all for budget. I have not started looking at the December - February budget yet, but I will send a reminder to Ambassadors list to get their events on the page. | |
| spevack | fabian_a: no problem. | |
| spevack | ok, that's all I have for budget, fugolini | |
| fugolini | spevack: thank you for what you have reported | |
| fugolini | it's impressive to see what you have just done and what you are doing | |
| fugolini | I hope to give more details on the activities I take care of (see Release Events) | |
| fugolini | To all the meeting attendees: have you questions regard this topic? | |
| spevack | fugolini: sounds good. Unlike this time last quarter, when I was very worried about budget, I think we are in very nice shape this quarter. It is a good feeling! | |
| spevack | EOF | |
| fugolini | spevack: yes, i agree with you | |
| fugolini | Ok, move on! | |
| fugolini | 2. Release Events status | |
| fugolini | I have few announcements regarding this topic: | |
| fugolini | 1. I have received the ok to use the logo for the Release Event map | |
| fugolini | it's a really stupid thing but it's part of the marketing | |
| fugolini | 2. I send an email to the list asking Release Events owner and attendees to | |
| fugolini | tell us about the problem they are facing in the organization etc. | |
| fugolini | 3. I'll send an email next thusday asking to have a confimation of the events, just to better know the place and the date | |
| fugolini | to start writing about event in FWN, Fedora Magazine, maybe in Fedora Announce (i need someone who is responsible for this) | |
| fugolini | and absolutely to start promoting this event. We have cool flyers with solar theme | |
| fugolini | and ... I think that's all for now | |
| fugolini | Any question? | |
| spevack | sounds good to me | |
| spevack | thank you for all your hard work on the release events | |
| fabian_a | +1 | |
| MrTom | ok for me | |
| ianweller | vwbusguy-: high school junior | |
| fugolini | spevack: the hard work was done by all the contibutors | |
| fugolini | who are making it happens | |
| vwbusguy- | ianweller, ah, k | |
| spevack | ianweller: you'd better apply next year | |
| fugolini | ok, next topic: | |
| fugolini | 3. Membership status | |
| fugolini | As you can see we are experiencing the benefit of Ambassadors Policy updates | |
| fugolini | During the last weeks Joerg with the help of fabian_a keep the sponsoring process up to date | |
| fugolini | and that make me really happy. | |
| fugolini | We need people who are able to handle this job, and personally I have to say Thanks! to all the active Membership Administrators | |
| spevack | the work that joerg has been doing is excellent | |
| fugolini | spevack: +1 | |
| spevack | and thanks to fabian_a for helping out | |
| fugolini | So, if nobody as something to say, we could be able to adjourn the meeting to next week | |
| fugolini | Once again I'm sorry not to be able to attend the last meeting, but I simply didn't hear the alarm | |
| fugolini | clock | |
| spevack | it's no probem francesco | |
| fugolini | Ok, so we can adjourn the meeting | |
