Re: [Debconf-discuss] Debconf Poetry Night?
I think, it's all about ambience - if it's good, it's fun to present something and a lot of people will do it. If it's not, it's rather unpleasant, so people will remain silent. Of course it helps to have a fire and things like this and if there are people that can presend something ad hoc to break the ice for others as was the guitar presentation at dc13. 15 felt like "don't let me be the first one speaking up" ;) ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss

Re: [Debconf-discuss] Sore throat
Probably too late to ask, but anyway. I've got sore throat, has anyone got any tablets or, better, syrup or anything? I have ibuprofen, aspirins and paracetamol, if that can be of help. I'm on the dining hall terrace, but I could lose wifi if I move later on the night. I also have ibuprofen, but for sore throat, paracetamol is far more effective than aspirin and ibuprofen. Also another, non medical advice: Drink lots of water during the day (and the night). It cured my sore throat from the night before daytrip in one day and sleeping went possible again. ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss

Re: [Debconf-discuss] The cheese team wants YOU!
Please do **NOT** cut the cheese today. If you cut it 24h in advance it will dry. Lets take a larger time spann / more people tomorrow. As far as I know that worked out at each CW party (grand cheese wine master in CC to confirm). I'm afraid Bubulle might rent the next helicopter to fly in here and stop you to do bad things with cheese.

My (highly personal) impression is, that it's not any more dirty than many lakes, where Germans tend to swim in when it starts getting hot.

Re: [Debconf-discuss] Do not photograph checkbox in registration
I didn't understand the point of the yelling at people to stand-up when they had the microphone. Was this to get a clearer video of the person? There is a clearer video of the person and it makes it easier for the camera operator to quickly catch the speaking person. When I got the 'picture' that I was going to be lynched if I didn't stand when talking, coupled with the realization that I was going to be filmed when doing so Generally in video covered talks (unless missing cam operator or asked for not to do so) the person speaking is on the video, streamed out to the public and recorded for the future. (This also does not depend on if the person is standing up or not.) It might have been an issue about ad hoc sessions, if they should be captured or not. Also, unlike the past, there was no talkroom , that was explicitly without video. One solution could be an option in the schedule (want video/don't want video). ___ Debconf-discuss mailing list Debconf-discuss@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-discuss

Re: [Debconf-discuss] The Return of the Assassins
Tricky question. That makes you an harder to catch target, for sure. So, not really fair for the person who has you as target. Harder but cheater, in my peception. But I want to play. I'll wait for more comments. :) Maybe you could be an additional target for bored murderers ;) Meaning, you could be assigned as a second target of one person in a randomized way (as a hard to kill joker or so).
