GNOME 3.0 Hackfest + 1 day conference for the launch(in Asia)

2010-12-14 Thread Frederic Muller

Dear marketing and documentation team,

I'd like to echo the call we made to the release team here 
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/release-team/2010-December/msg00031.html


and get a consensus on which date works better around GNOME 3.0 release 
(April 06) for each team to have a hackfest. We've been discussing the 
plan since September with various members of each team (to get the 3 
teams together in a hackfest before a 1 day conference to celebrate 
GNOME 3.0 launch with the public in Asia) though emails and at the 
Boston Summit.


We have received 3 great proposals with a competitive budget from 
Bangalore, Bali and Hong Kong and will be supported by the GNOME 
Foundation for people who need travel subsidies. We are doing a final 
review today.


So it is definitely time for us to try to agree on a good date for everyone.

Thank you to let us know.

Fred

Why not Fluendo?  That is more of a one way thing, but it might work.
You'll have to ask a fluendo person regarding it.  You could also talk to
the Telepathy devs on whether they have something that is stable that might
do that.

We're looking into upgrading Wordpress as well for blogs.gnome.org in
the near future.  We need to check if that theme is installed if it
can be installed on a per-blog basis or everyone has access to it.

Using a custom theme (or offering it as default) in GNOME blogs sounds
like a great idea! While the wptest.gnome is made on top of WordPress,
a few changes are required to turn the template we already have in a
blog-like website. Still, it's an easy task to do.

I'll try to cover this implementation of the template for the blogs
during these holidays.

Thank you :)

I guess you meant voice/video over jabber, which is what gtalk uses and
what Empathy can also do.

Empathy can work fine for this I guess. But likely telepathy developers
can suggest something else. Maybe even a hardcoded program only for this
event. AFAIK there was work on multiuser video chat.
