Sunday morning plan, such as it is
by Jeremy White Feb. 2, 2014

Feb. 2, 2014

Someone (Aric?) made a convincing argument that we should leave by 8:00 am to be in the room and well settled by 9:00. So I think most folks are planning to leave at 8:00 am. Cheers, Jeremy

Dinner Sunday at 7:30
by Jeremy White Feb. 1, 2014

The Software Freedom Conservancy is helping put together dinner for us on Sunday night. Right now, we're tentatively set for 19:30 at Chez Leon, although that is not yet confirmed. This dinner will be paid for by the Wine Party Fund, so it's a Wine party! I gave them a 'guess' of 25 people. It would be helpful to have a more accurate estimate. To that end, please reply to me privately and let me know if you plan on coming to the Sunday night dinner. Thanks! Jeremy

Planning info

So the plan tonight is to go in small groups for dinner. A small group of us are probably going to leave in a few minutes. Hopefully, people can wait in the lobby until there is critical mass, and then just go. I am hoping that we'll find a bar where we can all meet later on; hopefully one not too loud or smoky or crowded. I'll try to send an email to the group if/when I know of such a meetup location. Cheers, Jeremy

They ignored mine: > http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wineconf/2014-January/000854.html Right, here's a request, then. We really need someone to look after the video gear in the Wine devroom. Starting this year, we really want to record *everything*. Including your devroom. That requires at least one, but preferably two or more, volunteers to man the video gear. It's not difficult. I've already sent out a few mails with details to all our other volunteers; please see <https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/video/2014-January/000078.html> and <https://lists.fosdem.org/pipermail/video/2014-January/000163.html>. If you're going to be in the Wine devroom most of the day anyway, you would be a perfect candidate -- even if you have no prior A/V experience: there will be a training session, there will be documentation on how everything works, and we'll be there to help you should things go wrong. If you don't have the time to put in a whole day, but can do half a day or even just a few talks, that's also helpful; if there's more than one of you doing so, you'll probably manage a full day. Note that if there is no video volunteer at all this year, this will be taken into account when we need to decide whether Wine will be able to get a devroom next year. Thanks, -- This end should point toward the ground if you want to go to space. If it starts pointing toward space you are having a bad problem and you will not go to space today. -- http://xkcd.com/1133/
