Remember the dinner today (07/20) will be at the hotel restaurant. You can view the menu on https://wiki.debian.org/DebConf/19/CateringFood#Meal_times === On-site bursaries === We are planning to do some local payments to bursary recipients on-site in BRL. We're currently prioritising the following cases: 1. If you absolutely can't receive a bursary payment via SPI for some re ason 2. If you are Brazilian and would have requested BRL anyway If possible, we will do another run early next week for: 3. Anyone else who would prefer to be paid in BRL If you fit into category 1 or 2 please email bursaries-ad...@debconf.org with: * Your full name * Amount being requested * Copies of receipts (preferably in PDF format) And they'll get back to you ASAP. === Content filtering at UTFPR === Some people noticed content filtering at the UTFPR wifi. We will try to fix that on Monday, when the IT people are back. In the mean time, if content filtering is bugging you please use a VPN or SSH tunnel (we did get them to unblock the entire "proxy" category of applications, including openvpn and friends). === Video Team Needs YOUR help === DebConf relies on volunteers to record and stream video. We cover all of the scheduled content in the main 3 talk rooms, but this takes a lot of people to make it happen. If you're interested in helping, come to the video-conferencia room at lunch time, and we'll show you what to do. Also, if anyone wants to play with the video equipment, in a safe environment, at the end of the day, all rooms will have video team ready to help, for 15 minutes after the talks end. If you've already done the training, please sign-up to volunteer for shifts, at https://debconf19.debconf.org/volunteers/ - -DebConf19 Team -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEExyA8CpIGcL+U8AuxsB0acqyNyaEFAl0zAbQACgkQsB0acqyN yaHKeQ//aWwhNlFm+FvPi/4pG5PW3P/LApMP/D/8CKiyH7EEyf/QgiCFqKwzXCU4 LSxDreGAtVpI2xP547KfOfhiz5sotERxLGf46FDWgNTru799VL45CQvpkahc6cSv 028Sz3SZeK8phNgcbsyX6rV4eI9iOtfm7p16E3yVOoozcVpyEaYu2riQfyQWc0of Vdsk65cLkOKZNAbfcyS39S5QPF0znROlCyA1X09ARTvwnptN0ldLpWF87N8wZXlv KZ8imV8okAVsJ0HQOulbm919opvcem/cTAA4oHbYbPssMuZpHdOLRgH6xNRUlXzi rn6ELwjXEFFOp7Dc45RyvnK7+bypcGXVPwZpXBCu3DW7g1PcQ5W3G5e7iHrE1peG 9rcMWoANrqM//0bImqN8uQIYrdcAY0p9luPCxFiW1e5QySdLXo5Ix7lFAbUOBrnD tLFxykGL0exQfOqMvSPCxLrLPr2r8rnm+Y/sQsBAFL0P0R65epTH3jnPKWQyPl/H faX6ECLMocNcs67mrmQy+oEpGf4+30AZiNngyHkK65ny3nwbyzEG4vvyE6Bc7Yz+ jXk8hQpcqqGXxjr/MUMT2ZCcwgRTm6q/5ZZLvcpHhQTd6S4xRSO7myR7XnzvQ7si Wu7tRVeraD4Vme2aj5Rq63n5NpLL2Puz4DxZTA9oEcp72Qql+mQ= =S2+F -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
