Some comments on the events related subnotes... En/na Federico Mena Quintero ha escrit: > Summit: a small event; Board not very involved in organization > (mainly Tim).

If we get sponsorship to cover the costs of venues (not food) of +500 people in Europe, perhaps we could get also sponsored venues for 100 people in the US... > - Anne thinks we should stretch out to the parts of the world we > haven't emphasized.

Maybe the recently started GUADEC weekly update (see Planet) is enough in some cases though. > 24-25 is Spanish days, Just to start marketing the audience of this list ;) Not only this, it's locale / warm up days. Spanish and Catalan actibities are already planned but i.e. thos talked about the possibility of a UK meeting and this weekend is perfect for that. Maybe fr, de, it and others would also like to take advantage of this opportunity. We are in the process of concretising a Fluendo social event on Saturday or Sunday night. There is also a plan for a GNOME-KDE football match (US: soccer, no helmets nor cheerleaders). > 26-28 is GUADEC proper, 29-30 is hackfest. True. > - Need to start making reservations, etc. We are about to define packages for the most economic lodgers: youth hostel and camping. More next week. > - Web side of things: need update from the sysadmin team. Need to > re-setup the registration infrastructure. The sysadmin team is assisting us on most of our requests (there is a PHP server upgrade request, I guess this is more complex). But the website and the registration falls completely into the GUADEC organisation responsibility. More next week as well. -- Quim Gil - http://desdeamericaconamor.org
