[Debconf-team] SIM cards for DebConf11 attendees
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, As some of you may have heard already, one of our sponsors, mtel, was kind enough to provide us with SIM cards, in order to increase the quality of communication between attendees, as well as to reduce to the high costs of roaming. There are enough cards for every attendee, so there's no hurry to get one if you don't need it right away. It is important that you bring some form of ID, in order to ensure your DC11 attendance; we can't just give it to everyone who asks. We won't keep any record of your SIM card, serial number or phone number. However, feel free to add your number on the list on this page, if you'd like other attendees to know: http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf11/Communication The link above also includes where and when you can get these cards.

[Debconf-team] Newcomers and Volunteers, regarding recent incident
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Thank you for your help and willingness to volunteer and help us out, we really do appreciate it. However, there are few things you should know and be aware of. First of all, what we do [organizing], is a very public process and as such almost everything is available for a broader public. Every meeting, every mail, every change and update... To some it may seem very strict and formal, but we do like to have fun and we enjoy it. BUT, (as always, my every mail contains a 'but' section), it is imperative that you understand one thing! As part of the organization process your actions are most likely to reflect on the whole community. Sometimes crossing the line is just plain wrong, and even if the whole Debian community disapproves, for an outsider this may well seem as provocation, mockery and even taunting by the whole group! [I'm referring to the ms.ba incident] The organization of the Conference is in great deal done by volunteers and DDs showed you their trust by giving you full freedom to organize, interact, vote, discuss, etc, even if you have nothing to do with The Debian Project... closest you get to democracy around here :) Now it is up to you to uphold our values and respect the values and opinions of others, no matter how different they are. Be honorable and respectful, and consult with your friends/team members/coworkers before you do anything that might stain the reputation of this community! I'll just say what every parent says to their child: Think before you do. I know most of these actions are not done to provoke or insult, but joking aside, to others they may seem to be. Kind regards, Vedran Omeragic PS. Think before you do! -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJN5NCuAAoJEEIU23x/a574CDoP/375nDSgCNuaLvfWZGk0x4k0 Pl1pmR+VfSddP1Q0LcIO/0vGYI23XngwCIrgk5ubP+o63/gJnjaGX+N3tr9DZ9z2 xg+//aerEs5Vs1V6Ng+XxLSQi4Q/GseYc0kG7+PCD1jcCjxUuyBSuSu4eEVMm9BB I83Gl+UezE+Vn9k2Khvc9RPgkW6sXX3sWj5HZkKIxFqc+Mv37uL4Trxq8cXv5lwb /8Lo08JFm5PgpLy7qRITajhNe03iLEJ32AetTQ1bcpNj0ap3/3Lbj1S6qvg6eyTd 1TX2C01bS/Li+uRpw/7p4BOdzDCngbk/937OPXuT+HK5ntIJqiHrnl1yObjKP8S1 2h1kiIHSCSYvD4DvSFELOfktRlTVs7lCvfp86B5jA+MdeE+VbakV4DsSBRjcRn2m zWyuGGi65f38ng4MfhfQfXC8O/Av5fr1AE5FkEzwhXW5/aTaVgVFT8ZenutPKBIW PqpZMYiPisZXAhB2N3VUCof6fsEHMAFIaYNTGM6Q3piGgD6EdRV9K6JQ6nRdNlXd Jc0CVsWl1+xPETaa7QMqfPJzXXVX5anhOZb1O55QJUvVFVftb06F1eFrjTSc0joO scqG1HtOvZp9srGQ92fiM7qvW3NI5fns1X3TJYrDRQkOvzRf+P34XVD47pzfs3UY b1aU7L7eGoB/Vwbwd3wB =8Y4u -END PGP SIGNATURE- ___ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team

[Debconf-team] Documentation, reporting and improved communication
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Fellow organizers and contributors, it has come to our attention that communication over the last few weeks has been somewhat lacking. Same questions are asked over and over again and reporting what has or has not been done over the list has become somewhat problematic, since everything seems to be lost in a sea of emails. To better coordinate our efforts, not only within teams, but the whole organization of the conference, local team has proposed to make a category on the wiki: DC11 Documentation, which can be find at: http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/Category:DC11documentation In this category you can see a list of pages assigned to a certain topic. All of these pages should contain only following information: * Already finished - Things that have been done and taken care of * In process of realization - Things a team is working on * Needs to be discussed further - either over the list or irc * Additional material - links to corresponding wiki pages or some other important material The whole point of these pages are to contain small amount, but very concrete data. They should be used as some sort of a report. Each of these pages has a link to a corresponding wiki page with ideas, suggestions, questions, discussions, etc, where they can be discussed and studied further; meaning, only short and concrete sentences to be used here. We only ask that the members of corresponding teams update them regularly, so we know the progress of each team.

[Debconf-team] A small token of appreciation
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, As most of you know, after last nights meeting, Sponsorship levels were finally decided. Saying that our brochure issue is now concluded and v1.0 of the brochure is now available on the website in both languages and 3 different qualities. That includes small ~6mb, high ~8mb and printing ~240mb quality. Now, I know, some of you suggested scaling down the brochure to 1 and 3mb for SQ and HQ respectively, but you should understand that our aim was to make something that is aesthetically pleasing and attractive in order to attract more sponsors. We did, however, scaled it down to 6 and 8 mb, but any further reduction or optimization of the document would render the document almost unreadable. On a side note, I seriously doubt 8mb of traffic is a problem for anyone today. Note though, this isn't the absolute final version, small changes and typo-fixing are still possible of course, and as a matter of fact I would appreciate if you could alert me of any typos we made... Now, I would just like to thank everyone who helped us out in the last few days. First of all, Miroslav Remetic for designing the template of our brochure; Pablo Duboue and Holger Levsen for several great suggestions and critics which helped us improved our brochure; Aigars Mahinovs and Zoran Mrdjenovic for permission to use their photos; Zlatan Todoric i Zoja Bajbutovic for fast translation. Also, recently we had to change our header and so big thanks to Leandro Gómez for great design and thanks to Valessio Brito and Zoja Bajbutovic for your work as well; Stefano Zacchiroli, Joerg Jaspert, Moray Allan for suggestions and help with website issues. And finally, thanks to Darjan Prtic, Zlatan Todoric, Dejan Majkic, Bojana Borkovic and rest of BL liasons for help with several BL related issues. I'm sorry if I missed someone out, we'd like you to know that we truly appreciate your help.

[Debconf-team] Header Issues
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Velimir and I have been mailing each other back and forth, and I'm just waiting for him to send the pictures you want to use for the header. If you send them to me today or tomorrow, we can have the header stuff done this weekend. Hi, I'm not sure what exactly did you and Velimir discuss, but I had pictures ready for a header and if you could give it a shot, we'd really be grateful. Below is a link to archived photos of several buildings in Banja Luka. Each folder begins with a number which represents, sort of a 'priority'; meaning, higher the number, the 'sooner' it comes on the header. If by the end some of the buildings don't fit, than it's not a problem. As for the header itself, these building should be cut out and placed on a background of your choosing (preferably a sky and clouds; seems to fit the best), but experiment, and make several backgrounds if possible. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16156843/header.tar.gz Also, if anyone else is interested feel free to try and make one yourself.

Therefore, your guidance and help is very appreciate. We made mistakes before, and will probably will make some more, but your patience is appreciated. Just a question regarding penta, who makes it? We or you? Penta hacking is a task reserved for either the worse sinners that deserve to be tormented for eons to come or wonderful souls that suffer horribly to free us all (from penta hacking). Being said that, in general it is more of a global team kind of thing but if you have people willing and able at your end (penta is Ruby-on-Rails plus maybe posgress in the backend?), I guess we won't say no to help. Maybe we'd even say yes! yes! I'm not into the selected team of penta hackers myself, though and that team tends to be kept small due to a number of reasons among which the most repeated one is: the DB holds private data of tons of people and it is protected by European privacy laws governing the country where the machines are located. But I might just be making this all up as I'm not a penta hacker myself. Hope this helps (at least to elicit some reply to your original question from people in the know ;-) Happy holidays!

Re: [Debconf-team] Sponsorship brochure for DebConf11 - help?
Hi, just a friendly reminder, first version of the brochure is ready. Basically we just added a template and copied most of the text from the previous years brochure, so as far as design is concern, that's about it. However, we didn't add the amount of money for sponsorship levels. We still have to agree and find the best solution for our situation. Here's the link to HQ version of file (~300mb): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16156843/dc11_brochure_en_hq_v0.1.pdf and LQ (~30mb): http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16156843/dc11_brochure_en_lq_v0.1.pdf We did some proof reading, seems correct, but if you find any typos please mail us.

Velimir and I have agreed to get this part done, but we also expressed that we would need some guidance. To get this guidance, we would need to ping certain people that have experience with sponsorships. Instead of pinging certain people individually, I would like to to make this *official* ping for everybody that could help us with this to please report to actually help us with this. We still haven't started working on this task because we need some major questions answered. Around New Years for a week or so I'll be spending in Vienna, I was originally planning for two of us to complete this task while I'm there, but is this timing too late? Now I see that some companies are having meetings who are they going to sponsor for next years events. I'm particularly talking about Canonical that's having this kind of meeting today, are we going to be late to have Canonical as sponsor? Are we in position to lose some other potential sponsors, because AFAIK companies are making their re-balances and budget calculations for following year around this time right now. i.e: I'm going to Banja Luka on Monday for a meeting with Governmen, besides the regular meeting agenda we have, I'll bring a manually and specifically written sponsorship document for one of the *major* ISP and Telecom (M-Tel) companies in Bosnia. They expressed their wish to sponsor this event, and we can't lose them, just as we shouldn't lose Canonical. So right now we have to specifically write these documents for each company. Therefor, let's conclude this sponsorship brochure topic once for all. Are you experienced sponsorship team member? Please let us know, we'll do the work, all we need from you is answers to questions we have and potential guidance. I'll try to take care of M-Tel and Canonical so we don't lose them, but let's do this already.

[Debconf-team] ToDo list, final decisions, travel issues, budget and sponsors
Hi, as we're pretty much out of 'planning phase', with most mayor dates decided, we need to begin with serious preparations. There are still several mayor unresolved issues, which I personally think should be dealt with by the end of December and January so we can have a sound structure for the Conference. The reason why I'm pushing all this a bit sooner than usual, is in a case of some unexpected problems or inconsistency in our planning. This way we'll have a lot of time to deal with it and make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible. ToDo List * I made a small ToDo ( DC11 specific) list, which for now, consists only of few topics, but feel free to add anything you think is important to the Conference. This way, we can keep track of what needs to be done, who does what and what teams there are. Any help will be appreciated. * Can be found at: http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf11/ToDo Travel Info * A tough issue at the moment. While we do have some basic 'how to get to BL' stuff, I would like to expand it much more so attendees can prepare and choose the traveling routes best suited for them. In the next few days I will research 3 local Airports (Sarajevo, Zagreb, Belgrade) to see flight plans. This might be tough, as there are many countries from which our attendees come, so I'd appreciate if someone could help. Though it's still too early to have exact flight dates, I'd still like to have some kind of confirmation of existing flight routes during that period. After air transport, we need to focus on land travel possibilities, like bus and train and also, mark all important routes and highways which will be used by people coming with their own cars. * Now, that we have exact dates of the Conference, we have to get in contact with travel agencies to discuss a possible arrangement of shuttles from airports, bus and train stations to the venue / hotel. First we need to know if that is possible, which I doubt would be a problem, then if it's possible to book shuttles for the day of the camp/conference. We also need to discuss the costs of this. (I'll discuss budget issues later in mail) * Finally decide which map should be used as main navigational map for dc11. In my opinion Open Street Maps is so far the best and if nobody objects, I'll use it on official dc11 web site and wiki. However, I do have a specific request for people from BL. All important facilities for the conference, as well as exchange offices, banks, restaurants, ATMs, ambulances/hospitals, pharmacies, etc will have to be marked. For that I need someone from Banja Luka to go out and mark all these locations. Of course, I only mean locations in near distance from Venue and Hotel Bosnia. OSM already has a great deal marked, but what is missing, we should add ourselves. So, who is willing to do this, or at least a part of it? * Also, we need to know Customs rules ( what can and can't be transported over the border ). Accommodations and Venue * With official dates decided, we can finally book Banski Dvor for hosting the conference as well as Hotel Bosnia as primary accommodation option. * During booking of Hotel(s), we should see if it's possible to get a discount on a large group. I know it's a cheap shot, but it would definitely be a plus in our budget. * Also, make sure to check out whatever is provided for guests (towels, pillows, sheets...) so we can tell people what they need to bring, in case it's not provided by hotel. * Check out what technical equipment is available in Banski Dvor and what will need to be brought. ( Where can I find info on previous DC technical logistics, what equipment and in which amount was used for the conference? ) Budget, Costs, Sponsorships * Time to make 'Financial Team'. We need someone who can keep record of all costs, income, outcome and all available budget. * We made a 'budget draft' in our paper for Government, but it's based only on statistics from previous DCs, so it has a margin of error. Nonetheless, I think we should base our future planning on these statistics. * After booking of hotel and shuttles, make a preliminary budget report * Regarding the brochures, a friend said he'd like to design one, so we have one more volunteer for the job. Local Team and Volunteers * During the last few months a great deal of people said they are willing to help. Anyone who volunteered said they are free and ready. Well, now is time to help. Since everything we do is voluntarily, you will have to choose what you'll want to help with. Everyone is welcome, and please use ToDo list to see what we need help with; Use DebConf11/Ideas for any suggestions. * If you want to join a specific
