Agenda: ongoing tasks from https://wiki.gnome.org/GUADEC/2017/Tasks

=== Announcement and Promotion ===

We announced already in a few places.

We didn't make a press release yet; that can happen when registration opens.

We'll start local promotion after 1st April when we can print posters.

=== Registration ===

The new regcfp is deployed at https://registration.guadec.org/

We are just waiting on Patrick Uiterwijk to provide the identity system
that we are going to use.

=== Sponsorship brochure ===

GNOME ASIA is going to happen after all, so we need to rework this again.

Neil is on the case here:
<https://github.com/gnome-design-team/gnome-marketing/tree/master/events/conference-brochure-2017>

Event figures are still a placeholder, we need to put in real ones.

=== Sponsors ===

Talks are continuing.

=== Keynotes ===

We haven't approached anyone else; there are some more ideas.

== Next meeting ==

Next meeting will be Monday 6th March at https://meet.jit.si/guadec2017.
