Funding/Swag for events in April & May

[Max Spevack]

Trying to close up the loose ends for our April/May events.

North America

(1) LinuxFest Northwest -- swag, funding is all taken care of

(2) Release parties
 	* Utah Fedora/Ubuntu release party
 	* Los Angeles release party
 	* Central Ohio release party

What sort of funding and/or swag do you guys need for the release 
parties?

(3) Atlanta Installfest -- Dave, remind me what you need for this?

----

South America

(1) FISL -- everything taken care of

The remaining South America events will have to use what's left over 
from FISL to begin with, and once we get the final costs of FISL, we'll 
see what kind of budget we have left to devote to South America.

----

EMEA

(1) Fedora day in Egypt -- I sent a bunch of swag to Diaa

(2) liberaMENTE -- Francesco, do you need anything from us?

(3) LinuxTag -- has its own planning process, all is well.

(4) Several events without owners, so I am ignorning them for now.

----

APAC

Harish, Rahul, etc --  is there anything you want to try to do on that 
side of the world between now and the end of the quarter?

Anything planned/possible for RH's home turf, i.e. Raleigh/Durham, NC?
 I'm in the position to facilitate, if need be.

You, me, and Greg can go out for drinks.  ;)

How about Fedora foots the bill for the next TriLUG, and you and I can 
coordinate offline about maybe doing something extra-special?

I'm thinking that having some stickers or other cool things to hand out
would be great.   Food is our biggest expense, we're considering catering or
sandwiches at this point.  I'm not sure the protocol to ask for things, and
is there a list of swag we can request?  I don't recall a set of things
other than the StoreSIG stuff.

Cheers,

Clint

We can set aside some money to help with your expenses... how many 
people are you expecting?

My guess is that we'll be getting between 30-50 people, possibly more, since
its a combined event with Ubuntu folks too.

Hi Max,
If I could get some SWAG for Los Angeles event, that would be really
nice. As far of the food, I could get some internal contacts in our
campus to find the best price of it. I'll let FAmSCo knows the price
quote for the printing and catering, hopefully by the end of today.

Thanks,
Grady

Grady,

I'd love if you could get the contact info from Thomas Chung for the 
local providers of shirts and swag that he knows in Los Angeles, and 
then FAMSCo can simply fund your event for $X and let you handle 
everything locally.

We could add the LA vendors here:
 	http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/AmbassadorVendors

How's that sound?

Thanks Max,
I'm still waiting for the news from the FAmSCo regarding the budget
that I have though, in which I hope I could get by at least tomorrow
or this weekend.

What about FLISOL in Latin America?

I am a new Ambassador for Ecuador, and I was planning to speak at the local
FLISOL event in Quito. I don't know if it is too late to ask for help, but
maybe I will need some banners to have a booth at the event. I was also
planning to give away some F8 Live CDs.

What do you think?

Greetings,

Ricardo Arguello

Well, I think you should talk to Rodrigo Padula, because I believe that 
much of the stuff that is being used for FISL this week will also be 
used at FLISOL.

Rodrigo, what's the plan for events beyond FISL?
