Re: May 11, 2010 IRC Meeting Notes



Hi!

Actually first paragraph refers to the volunteers involved in the conference organization. I agree that "and developers" which follows should be removed. And then in the second paragraph we're referring the conference attendees/visitors. So do you think we should amend it and replace attendees by visitors?

Thanks.

Looks really good.  Some comments:

At the end of page 1 & the beginning of page 2 we say:

However, page 5 says:

We can't provide a database if we don't provide attendee's personal
information, can we?

I have modified based on Brian's earlier comments. I also added a few
more pictures of our GAS past events in the 1st two pages.

Besides, replaced our package by using COSCUP CFS. Please find attached
the final proposal, if it is okay (no more other comment), I will send
it to COSCUP team as they asked for it.

Thanks,
Pockey

Hi Pockey,

We should modify our package level to fix COSCUP's level. We are
similar to them, so easy to modify.

Thanks,

              * proposal: "open web and mobile technologies" (To be
         discussed
                offline.)


         3) Discuss about website development and registration system

              * Website development

                      * Other than portal page, the website contents
         are shared.
                        (possibly by linking)

                      *<pingooo>: Let me try to understand what
         "shared" means.
                        Will http://coscup.org/2010/program and
                        http://gnome.asia/2010/program have identical
         content?
                        <PockeyLam1>: pingooo: yes, same content, maybe
         even
                        point to the same webpage
                        <terral>: chihchun: that way each conference
         can keep
                        information specific to itself maintained
         separately

              * Registration system

                      * Combine the registrations into one.

                      * Adding a column to indicate the interest of
         COSCUP and
                        GAS sessions in registration form.

              * will have another conversations afterwards.



         4) Share information about sponsorship


              * Sponsorship Open Discussion Topics:

                      * Exchange CFS of both side.

                              * COSCUP -

          http://dl.dropbox.com/u/343256/COSCUP2010-CFS-en.pdf

                              * GAS -

                      * Contacted:

                              * CT: Nokia, Samsung, KKBOX, Microsoft,
         Yahoo!
                                Taiwan, Opera Taiwan, OpenFoundry,
         Pixnet, III,
                                Trend Micro, Canonical, Google, Intel,
         TTN,
                                Cavium Networks, Linpus, IBM, Novell

                              * GASC: Sun/Oracle, Mozilla, Google,
         Intel

              * Confirmed:

                      * Sponsoring for co-event.

                      * GAS's sponsorship levels and price tags will be
         aligned
                        with COSCUP's CfS.

              * Issues:

                      * profits shared as 50/50? (Refer to agenda
         item#6.)



         5) Share information about speakers

         Information Sharing:

              * (Same break time frames)
                During the two-day joint-conference, there will be 2
         tea breaks
                and one lunch time each day. We need to keep these
         three time
                frames the same between GAS and COSCUP. Base on the
         same three
                break time frames, we can have different program time
         slots for
                GAS or COSCUP. (For example, if we have a 10:00-10:30
         tea break,
                both GAS and COSCUP have the same break time frame.
         Then GAS can
                have a 10:30-11:00&  11:00-11:30 sessions, and COSCUP
         has a
                10:30-11:30 session.)

              * (Opening&  Closing)
                We plan to have joint-opening at 09:10-09:20 on Day1,
         10-min
                duration, both GASC/CT team members can have a short
         speech.
                Closing will be at 17:00-17:30 on Day2. We can discuss
         if we
                have closing together or separately. (Based on the
         history, we
                have known that CT's closing may be very . and would
         like to
                share the joy with GAS:)

              * (Program committee schedule)
                1. COSCUP CfP is online and sending.
                (http://coscup.org/2010/en/programs)
                2. 6/18: deadline of CfP
                3. 7/4: announce joint-conference agenda/program

              * (Conference room arrangement)
                There are 4 different size conference rooms. We propose
         to
                assign sessions to rooms based on popularity of
         sessions,
                determined by the number of registrants that pick a
         session
                during registration. Basically, we may not have
         dedicated two
                rooms for GAS and the other two for COSCUP. We can
         arrange
                meeting room based on popularity of sessions each
         half-day.
                (Event staff team will help to change/update
         doorplates.)


         Program Open Discussion Topics:

              * plenary talks

                      * In the joint-conference proposal, it mentioned
         about
                        "Plenary talks that span 2 tracks". It's also
         possible
                        to "span 4 tracks" which may be helpful for
         sponsorship
                        or marketing. Let's keep it as a open-mind
         discussion
                        topic. If any of us (GASC or CT) may need one
                        span-4-tracks speech, the program committee of
         both side
                        can discuss the practicability. :)

                      * 3 plenary talks and not more than 4 plenary
         talks. (only
                        for diamond sponsor)

                      * scheduled 45 minutes for each plenary talk
         (normal talk
                        is 30 minutes, BTW)



         6) Discuss about budgeting

              * COSCUP budget:

          http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AvhuMZjf1PYpdDA3Y1o4SmVtMVNySkFCemN1TlB1ZkE&hl=zh_TW

                      * [TODO] we can mark which items are optional

              *<yippi>: perhaps a weighted formula would work best.
         For
                example. Perhaps 50% of the profits are split 50/50 and
         50% of
                the profits are divided by which team got the
         sponsorship money.
                <yippi>: or perhaps sponsorship money from
         organizations which
                are known to donate to both events are split 50/50, and
                sponsorship money from events that are not typical
         sponsors of
                both events go to the organization that got the sponsor

                      * The formula proposal would be discussed offline
         by email
                        list.



         7) Answer any question from COSCUP :) or anything COSCUP may
         want
         to discuss(Booth team) Need GAS provide information in the
         future (Can
         be discussed offline.)

              * Will be there posters/DM/exhibits of GAS? (booth team
         needs to
                arrange the booth locations and layout.)

              * Need any power supply at GAS booth?

              * Need any power supply at GAS sponsors' booth?
