|---|
| fugolini | MrTom: we just lost the last meeting, I think 3 is just enought to have a usefull meeting :) |
|---|
| kital | JoergSimon |
|---|
| fugolini | Ok, reading the reminder you have been noticed that today we are going to discuss about Release Events |
|---|
| Joindredearka a rejoint ce canal (n=dearka@189.81.30.212). |
| fugolini | I and Max suggested some topics to discuss about. I think those initiative are really important. |
|---|
| fugolini | Before scrolling the points, I want to suggest some things to do: |
|---|
| fugolini | - Create a wiki page with these events around the world |
|---|
| fugolini | - Make something public, like a fedora-announce/fedora planet post in order to let people know that we are in |
|---|
| fugolini | - Find any way to get in touch with events owners in order to help them and know what we can do |

| Joindrerdieter_ a rejoint ce canal (n=rdieter@narya.unl.edu). |
| fugolini | that's all from a technical pov. |
|---|
| Quitrdieter a quitté ce serveur (Nick collision from services.). |
| fugolini | From today agenda (in chronological order): |
|---|
| Pseudordieter_ est maintenant connu sous le nom de rdieter. |
| fugolini | 1) Release Events: local organization and status |
|---|
| fugolini | 2) Release Events: what FAmSCo should do in the next weeks? |
|---|
| fugolini | 3) Release Events: is there any proposal to make to improve it (from |
|---|
| fugolini | FAmSCo and people who will attend it). |
|---|
| fugolini | (1) When will media be available in different regions? |
|---|
| fugolini | (2) if the release event will be before media is available, will we advertise that people should bring USB keys and can get Live USBs or their own Fedora ISOs? |
|---|
| fugolini | (3) Are ambassadors in various regions starting to think about the dates/locations of their release parties? How do we ensure that we have quality events? |
|---|
| fugolini | the last 3 points were suggested by Max and seem the most concrete ones. |
|---|
| fugolini | for Max third point I can say we are seeing something in FedoraEvents page |
|---|
| MrTom | it seems we are mixing marketing questins with organization ones |
|---|
| fugolini | sure we are |
|---|
| Sujetfugolini a défini le sujet du canal à « FAmSCo Meeting ». |
| kital | i think we should do it in the way how it worked with the past Release Parties -give the impulse |
|---|
| fugolini | I just wrote some emails to invite people organizing such events (I was searching those posts) |
|---|
| kital | i think we should make sure that we have Party - but leave it to marketing how and when |
|---|
| MrTom | I agree... i barely see FAMSCO role here... we just have to be sure people have the media they need |
|---|
| fugolini | MrTom: the media, and that the initiative could be well organized (be sure everything works fine) |
|---|
| fugolini | MrTom: for the media, what FAmSCo / CommArch can do is giving Local Contact the resources to burn media |
|---|
| fugolini | I just talked about resources for Release Events since the early beginning of Q1 and somehow during Q2 |
|---|
| MrTom | but what should work fine ? We can't help ordering a room, we can't help having people locally going there, we can't help people doing a presentation in there language, we can't help people installing fedora locally... really, if once is not AT the event the very day, I can't see how we could help them |
|---|
| QuitRodrigo_Padula a quitté ce serveur ("Saindo"). |
| fugolini | and I'm sure we shoudln't have problem in this way |
|---|
| fugolini | MrTom: like we do last year. I asked Ambassadors if they want to organize a meeting to discuss about REs organization |
|---|
| PartirMostafaDaneshvar a quitté ce canal. |
| fugolini | unfortunately it hadn't the effect I wish |
|---|
| Quitdearka a quitté ce serveur ("Saindo"). |
| kital | ok motivation is another thing than enable |
|---|
| MrTom | we can help on motivation, we can help on helping people having ideas for presentation, on how to speak and how to organize the whole event |
|---|
| MrTom | but that' all we can do : giving advice |
|---|
| kital | make a release party competition we had already in the past - is maybe something that will enhance the Report Activities |
|---|
| fugolini | kital: sure, the idea sounds good. |
|---|
| kital | first price flight to next fudcon in the next region |
|---|
| kital | ;) |
|---|
| MrTom | for example |
|---|
| fugolini | We should ask treasurer, but it seems a good idea |
|---|
| kital | make a release party and win a flight to the next Fudcon |
|---|
| fugolini | Just take note of it, ask for resource avaialbility, and push in the list. Do you agree? |
|---|
| MrTom | yep |
|---|
| MrTom | i volunteer myself to write a serie of mail / blog post (why not) on how to organize a successful release event |
|---|
| MrTom | and detailing each aspects of an event |
|---|
| kital | perfect |
|---|
| fugolini | great |
|---|
| fugolini | I'm sorry if I can be so helpfull as I want but I had a series of unwanted problems that made him less productive than I wanted |
|---|
| fugolini | thank you MrTom |
|---|

|---|
