[Debconf-discuss] Group photo information
Hello all, Summary: group photo is tomorrow at 11:30 on the main steps of the old library. Everyone must be there! Also tomorrow at 10:00 we will have a photo opportunity with the Dean of Columbia University school of engineering (which includes computer sciences). We will take two photos - one picture of just the Dean that we will paste into the main group photo and a secondary publicity photo with a few developers. So if you want to be in that - just show up on the steps at around 10:00 tomorrow. Only the Dean will be merged into the main photo, so if you are with the Dean, you also must show up at 11:30 to be in the group photo! Here is the process for the main group photo - there will be a 'crier' person sent to every talk room and both hacklabs to get people out at 11:30. Everyone should walk directly to the main steps of the old library and starting to stand. We will be standing on the second set of sets on the both sides of the 'Alma Matter' statue. Shorter people in front, longer people in back. Only stand in one row per step, try to get shape like a square. Make sure that your face is completely visible to me. I will be on a stepladder just in front of the big white tent. I will take up to 50 photos so the process might take up to 10 minutes. Please be patient. Please try not to turn your head to the side as that confuses the photo stitching algorithm greatly and then I have to manually fix your face. We'll be trying to beat the 96 Mpix resolution of the previous years group photo, so let's give it our best! -- Best regards, Aigars Mahinovs mailto:aigar...@debian.org #--# | .''`.

The group photo was a great success. I thank you all for being patient and I thank everyone who helped to make this group photo as fast and painless as it was. And here is the result: http://www.flickr.com/photos/aigarius/4867463808/ Now, please - everyone that was in the group photo, go to http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf10/GroupPhoto and add your name and the names of all the people you know. Especially concentrate on people that might be less known face to face: Debconf newbies, local people, people that refuse to take photos, but still came to the group photo :) ... Also please spread this message to everyone who is in the group photo: add your name to the list. -- Best regards, Aigars Mahinovs mailto:aigar...@debian.org #--# | .''`.

Unfortunately, I will probably not be able to be there! Unless I decide to go on the lam, I have to show up for jury duty tomorrow. Is there any way for me to fleetingly elevate my status to something like that of the dean, and get a picture taken of me some other time, so that it can be pasted in after the fact?

Is it possible for 7 Bosnians from DebConf11 team to all be in one corner/one spot, since we also have a Bosnian flag with us for the picture.

I want to be in the picture! Get me when I am in hacklab1 and when there is sun outside (I leave New York in the late morning of Sunday), best before Saturday noon (this is the time I plan to finish working on the photo and release the result). I can not promise that you will fully blend in, but I will try. -- Best regards, Aigars Mahinovs mailto:aigar...@debian.org #--# | .''`.
