ThomasWaldmann | zeth: some people are confused about "FrontPage" (taking it for a MS product :) | 15:38 |
---|---|---|
ThomasWaldmann | you could just set page_front_page = u"EuroPython" to make everyone happy and then rename the old FrontPage to EuroPython | 15:39 |
ThomasWaldmann | or pboddie, when he returns :) | 15:40 |
* ThomasWaldmann added some comments to ep3000/cfg/ep2008.py in case you want to implement that change. please read before starting. | 15:47 | |

lac | hi all | 18:54 |
Aiste_ | hello people ;) | 18:54 |
pboddie | Hello! | 18:55 |
pboddie | A bit under the weather today, so someone else ought to be leading the meeting. | 18:56 |
Aiste_ | same here | 18:56 |
Aiste_ | what's the agenda for today? | 19:00 |
* Aiste_ is at her home computer so missing all the relevant links | 19:00 | |
pboddie | Same as last time, I guess. | 19:00 |
lac | url? | 19:01 |

jacob22 | Hi everyone. | 19:03 |
*** john__ has quit IRC | 19:03 | |
*** pinner has joined #europython | 19:03 | |
pinner | Good evening, all, anyone? | 19:04 |
jacob22 | I guess top of the agenda is how many talks we have? | 19:04 |
pinner | jacob22: there seems to have been a flurry, but are there enough? I haven't counted them | 19:05 |
lac | let me count | 19:05 |
pboddie | URL was http://wiki.python.org/moin/EuroPython/2008/IRCMeetings/IRCMeeting12 (same for quite some time) | 19:06 |
Aiste_ | thanks pboddie | 19:07 |
lac | I count 41 | 19:07 |
pinner | Oh, wow! Better than I thought | 19:08 |
Aiste_ | how many do we need? | 19:08 |
jacob22 | I'd say that is a bit short. I suggest extending submission until Monday or so. | 19:08 |
GHUM | +1 @ jacob22 | 19:08 |
lac | we may be better off looking at what we have and then soliciting a few talks | 19:09 |
lac | and extending the deadline. After all, there may be some we want to reject in there. | 19:09 |
jacob22 | lac: I think we should do that as well. | 19:09 |
pinner | I think 41 is more than last year, isn't it? | 19:09 |
pinner | lac: better solicit quality rather than accept quantity | 19:10 |
Aiste_ | I didn't get any esponse from russians unfortunatelly | 19:10 |
pedronis | didn't we have 60 something last year? | 19:10 |
Aiste_ | it seems that their enthusiasm was sortlived | 19:10 |
pboddie | We had 62 by May 25th last year. | 19:10 |
pboddie | And that was small compared to the year before. | 19:10 |
pinner | pboddie:but surely there were nothing like 61 at the conference itself? | 19:11 |
pboddie | No, I guess some were rejected. | 19:11 |
jacob22 | And some were cancelled at the last minute. | 19:11 |
GHUM | yes, we allways need backup | 19:11 |
GHUM | since allways some are cancelled at last minute | 19:12 |
GHUM | or moshe arrives 3 days late | 19:12 |
pinner | I suggest we extend until Monday week (10 days), and solicit as well | 19:12 |
GHUM | or sth. like that | 19:12 |
* lac agrees with pinner. | 19:13 | |
pinner | Were you happy with the submission form I put up on Monday? It seems to have been popular this week. | 19:13 |
GHUM | agree @ pinner | 19:13 |
pboddie | Can people please attempt to publicise these things? Check here to see where the announcements have gone so far: http://www.europython.org/Planning/Publicity | 19:13 |
lac | Yes, I think that was a great thing to do, also. | 19:13 |
jacob22 | We should put out an extension now, and a reminder 2 days before the new deadline. | 19:14 |
Aiste_ | I think that's a good idea | 19:14 |
pinner | jacob22: several reminders, like 8, 6, 4, 3, 2, 1 days | 19:14 |
jacob22 | pinner: Fine by me. | 19:16 |
lac | In the topic of announcements. hans Rosling is confirmed. | 19:17 |
lac | He says he will talk for as long as we let him -- until we kick him off the stage. | 19:17 |
lac | Currently there is a possible problem -- he booked his flight with the idea of doing the | 19:17 |
lac | Monday keynote. he is trying to get them changed to Tuesday. | 19:18 |
Aiste_ | he overlaps with GVR? | 19:18 |
lac | who also must only have monday. | 19:18 |
lac | But Guido wants later in the evening, ideally, so we could call that the fireside chat or something. :-) | 19:18 |
lac | Worse things have happened then 2 keynotes on monday. :-) | 19:19 |
pinner | sorry, but I need to go within 20 minutes, if there's anything you want me for, it needs to be before then | 19:19 |
lac | but he is trying to get that changed. At any rate we should make some publicity about that. | 19:19 |
lac | do we have the front page that was confusing people fixed yet? do we know how? | 19:19 |
lac | John do you need something from the rest of us in 20 minutes? | 19:20 |
pinner | lac: It needs a moinmoin person, I posted about it. | 19:20 |
pinner | lac: nothing specific, I'll put you in the picture about registration, then you decide... | 19:21 |
pinner | registration itself is working ok, you got my status report on bookings | 19:21 |
pinner | now we're doing the backend processing... | 19:22 |
pinner | I've done a whole load of work on a reusable and configurable cart downloader... | 19:22 |
pinner | Saturady we have a working party and will address the reports... | 19:22 |
pinner | starting with bookings report, finance, etc... | 19:23 |
pinner | which will run under cron and post to the list or a web page... | 19:23 |
pinner | then the badges data for Dinu or whoever is doing them.. | 19:23 |
pinner | You should have the basic reports next week... | 19:24 |
lac | sounds good. | 19:24 |
pinner | Although I have to attend to another vice, taking stock of 5000 vintage car parts | 19:24 |
pinner | OK? | 19:24 |
Aiste_ | :) | 19:24 |
lac | Ok :-) | 19:25 |
pinner | Also, do you want us to take the talks submissions and create the html for thme and the bios? | 19:25 |
pinner | I've lost track of who is doing what on talks | 19:25 |
lac | me too. | 19:25 |
lac | pedronis: you there? | 19:26 |
lac | I think he is logged in but not paying attention. | 19:26 |
pedronis | lac: yes | 19:26 |
Aiste_ | I've got to run shortly as well -- temperature rising | 19:26 |
Aiste_ | does anyone need anything from me? | 19:26 |
lac | aha, I was wrong! sorry samuele. | 19:26 |
lac | aiste: what are the rules for letting russians into lithuania | 19:26 |
pinner | lac: in chains? | 19:27 |
lac | pedronis: who else is working on talks? I forget. | 19:27 |
pedronis | nobody AFAIK | 19:27 |
pedronis | I may be misremembering though | 19:27 |
Aiste_ | lac: I'm not sure, they should ask the embassy | 19:28 |
lac | I remember somebody volunteering to help but forget who. will look it up on ep-improve and ep later then. | 19:28 |
pinner | pedronis: moreati volunteered | 19:28 |
Aiste_ | they do need visa, that's for sure | 19:28 |
lac | ok, I need to know if a plain letter of invitation from me will work or if we have to go theourh the horror of last year. | 19:28 |
lac | but I will have him ask the Lithuanian embassy in Moscow. | 19:29 |
pinner | pedronis: moreati will be here in a working party on Saturday, we can work on talks if you want | 19:29 |
jacob22 | Lithuania joined the Scheneg agreement in January, so things will most certainly have changed from last year. | 19:29 |
pinner | pedronis: will you be contactable via IRC if necessary? | 19:29 |
lac | Because maybe Aiste has to invite him, and it doesnät work for non Lithuanian citizens. | 19:30 |
pedronis | pinner: yes, I would prefer to have a time interval to know I should be around | 19:30 |
pboddie | On visas, see this page for what I dug up: http://www.europython.org/Location | 19:31 |
Aiste_ | lac, aha,. it seems they simplified the system now as we are part of EU | 19:31 |
Aiste_ | it is enough to have an official letter from EP | 19:31 |
pinner | pedronis: how about 14:00-16:00 CET | 19:31 |
Aiste_ | jacob22: shengen does not infulence people from Russia | 19:31 |
pedronis | pinner: that works | 19:31 |
pinner | pedronis: OK, on #europython? | 19:32 |
pedronis | yes | 19:32 |
lac | Ok, I will write him an invitation letter then. | 19:33 |
Aiste_ | lac: ok it seems that there is no need to jump through hoops and get some sort of official state approval of the invitation anymor for Russians | 19:33 |
lac | great! | 19:34 |
pinner | Anything you want to know/tell me about registration etc? | 19:35 |
lac | pinner: all seems fine to me so far. | 19:35 |
Aiste_ | it is enough to have an official letter with their name, birth date, nationality, gender, passport number, purpose and time of the visit | 19:35 |
lac | ok, pasted that down where I will not forget it. thank you. | 19:37 |
lac | ok, next topic. Sponsorship. | 19:39 |
* pinner says he needs to leave, and if there's nothing else for him, he will.. | 19:39 | |
lac | Jacob do you need help from anybody? | 19:39 |
lac | pinner: take care, and thank you. | 19:40 |
pinner | Good night, all | 19:40 |
pboddie | pinner: See you! | 19:40 |
pinner | don't take all night ;) | 19:40 |
* Aiste_ needs to go as well, anymore questions? | 19:40 | |
*** pinner has quit IRC | 19:40 | |
lac | aiste: not from me. thank you. | 19:41 |
jacob22 | lac If the sponsorship brochure has been posted, I don't need any more help. | 19:41 |
*** Aiste_ has quit IRC | 19:43 | |
lac | Ok, do we have any more business to transact, or can we all call it a night and for once have an hourly meeting that is less than an hour? | 19:43 |
jacob22 | It's up. Thanks pboddie! | 19:44 |
pboddie | Yes, I did that last night. I wondered about image sizes, since it says 160x80 in the brochure, I think, yet banners have traditionally been 468x80. | 19:45 |
lac | looks like we can bang the gavel and declare this meeting closed then. Thank you very much everybody. | 19:45 |
lac | BANG BANG BANG! | 19:45 |
ThomasWaldmann | how about FrontPage? ;) | 19:50 |
jacob22 | pboddie: I copied what Pycon said. Maybe we should modify? | 19:50 |
* GHUM slaps ThomasWaldmann | 19:51 | |
pboddie | It depends on what the logos will be used for. If we want banner images, something like 468x80 would be best. | 19:51 |
* ThomasWaldmann throws a Python at GHUM | 19:52 | |
* GHUM drops Perls on Thomas | 19:52 | |
ThomasWaldmann | how evil! | 19:52 |
jacob22 | pboddie: Ok, I'll make sure all sponsors get that info. | 19:53 |
pboddie | I can re-add the text on the sponsorship page if you want. | 19:53 |
jacob22 | pboddie: I don't have the original. dboddie has it. I'll ask him to modify the brochure first. | 19:54 |
pboddie | Yes, I can mention this to him later. | 19:55 |
jacob22 | Great. | 19:55 |
