 Thanks.  please mark them with the DebCamp track so that they're
 easier to find.

I created 676 and scheduled it for Tuesday the 27th in Interschool.
However, it shows up neither in the logged-in nor the exported versions
of the schedule. I can create the others (Thursday in Davis ... maybe
one other). But, there's not much point if they don't show up, I guess.

 I just checked the Public event box on the scheduling tab.  it seems
 to be showing up now.
 
 If you could create and schedule the other video-team training event(s)
 that would be great.

Doh! thanks. sorry about that. I've added 677 as well now.

 Are you part of the debconf video team?  (i'm asking because i really

 My understanding was that this was as much a tour (e.g. getting people
 involved for future years and to replicate v-t's work for other
 conferences) as it was a training for this conference.
 
 I'm assuming that there will be other training events during debcamp
 (before debconf starts, that is) to get the current year's team in shape.
 
 edrz, can you speak to this?
 
 Hrm, reviewing penta, i see that there is a submission note:
 
  The DebConf Videoteam would like to run several instances of this
  event: Once or Twice during DebCamp as a check of all the systems and
  training for volunteers; Perhaps during Open Day (or whatever we are
  calling it this year) to show off our tools; and again towards the end
  of the conference as a follow-on to the Conference Video talk (637). 
 
 i've just corrected the ordering between 637 and 638 (637 should have
 come first, and now it does), but we don't have the suggested other
 instances of this event.
 
 edrz, what should we do about this?  do you want to submit
 debcamp-specific events that we should schedule and publicly announce
 via penta?

My thought was mainly to have them in a schedule somewhere. It didn't
occur to me that penta wouldn't allow the same event to have multiple
instances. I'll put in several training sessions to be scheduled during
DebCamp. 


 if so, do we want to do that for other events as well?

Probably not.

 And does the video team need another instance of training on DebianDay too?

Probably not. It was just an idea in case there weren't enough talks to
fill in DebianDay, which doesn't seem to be an issue.

 Sorry to have more questions than answers,

Not at all, thanks for asking and I'm sorry for submitting a confusing
event. :-/

If that slot wont be used for that video event, can the Debian  DebConf 
relationship event be scheduled in that slot? (The one Stefano asked for..)


cheers,

Hi!

Please consider moving the Debconf video training from the 6th day to 
the 1st day.
This information will be more valuable to participants at the beginning 
of the conference,
rather than when the conference is almost over.
