Withdrawing Vegas bid. Sadface.
by Robyn Bergeron 19 Apr '11

19 Apr '11

Just a note to everyone that I need to withdraw the Vegas bid. While all the other costs seem reasonable, the costs for actually doing things within the Vegas hotels is just prohibitive. Nearly all hotels there utilize outside vendors for meeting space equipment - including power, projectors and screens, wireless, etc. The costs, as far as I have discovered thus far, are not negotiable. And it means costs for things like projector screen rental are in the 500-600 range, per day, per ROOM, and when you add in wireless, etc. - it just makes for something that is way too hard to swing. Sorry. Perhaps I'll win the lottery and it can happen next year. :) -Robyn

FUDCon NA bids to be discussed at Ambassadors meeting tonight
by Mel Chua 19 Apr '11

19 Apr '11

I was just asking around in IRC when the FUDCon NA bids would be discussed for decisionmaking on the final location - turns out it's tonight, at the NA Ambassadors meeting. This was news to me, so I'm passing it on to others who may not have heard. The agenda is at: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Meeting:NA_Ambassadors_2011-04-19#Agenda The meeting is at 2011-04-20 2:00 UTC ( 2011-04-19 21:00 Eastern ) in #fedora-meeting on freenode. It sounds like there'll be this conversation (with FAmNA), then another with all of FAmSCo (which meets on Saturdays), and then based on those two discussions the FPL will make the final call. So we should be reaching a decision point Real Soon Now. Your friendly neighborhood calendar-imp, --Mel
