Sunday morning plan, such as it is
by Jeremy White 02 Feb '14

02 Feb '14

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 01 Feb '14

01 Feb '14

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
by Jeremy White 01 Feb '14

01 Feb '14

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

Re: Wine developer room recordings

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/

Plan for Saturday
by Jeremy White 31 Jan '14

31 Jan '14

Folks, We have no formal plan for Saturday. You are all expected to be in our room (AL W 120, afairc), by 9:00 am on Sunday. Andre suggested that some group of interested parties meet in the lobby at 9:30 to travel to FODSDEM together. Hans also advised that if you walk North about a block, you'll get to a metro stop, where you can go down and buy tram tickets. He purchased two round trip tickets; one for Saturday, and one for Sunday; that may be your most economical choice. Also, recall that we take the 92 or 94 to Louisa, get off, and then take the 92 or 94 on to ULB. (Yes, that sounds wrong, but yes, it's right). Cheers, Jeremy

Fwd: [devroom-managers] Devroom information and instructions
by Jeremy White 30 Jan '14

30 Jan '14

I'm hoping to ask others to help me remember all these details, and help keep the room in good order. Thanks, Jeremy -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [devroom-managers] Devroom information and instructions Date: Mon, 27 Jan 2014 20:35:50 +0100 From: Gerry Demaret <gerry(a)fosdem.org> To: FOSDEM Devroom Managers <devroom-managers(a)lists.fosdem.org> Hi devroom-managers, With FOSDEM just a few days away, we would like to supply you with some information and instructions. Your room Your room should already be equipped with a projector. If this is not the case, or it is malfunctioning, please contact us as soon as possible. House rules First aid: In case of an emergency, stay calm. Make sure the attendees are safe and contact the nearest infodesk as soon as possible. We have Red Cross volunteers on-site. Room capacity: Your room has a capacity limit. Please make sure the number of people present in your room never exceeds this limit. We will provide you with a sign that indicates the room is full. Please hang this sign on the entrance door and make sure it is being respected. Do not take this lightly. The event can be cancelled if the guards notice a dangerously overcrowded room. Safety: Do not block the exits. Do not allow the pathways in your room to be obstructed. Some rooms have had problems with high temperatures. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about that. Should this occur, please try to leave the door open while keeping new visitors out. Trash and bottles: We will provide you with garbage bags. Make sure you and your attendees use them. Please keep your devroom clean and tidy. Glass bottles are collected at drop-off points in the hallways. Do not throw these in the garbage bags. Ask visitors to bring them back to the nearest drop-off point, the cafetaria, or an infodesk. Closing and cleanup Saturday: The devroom schedules end at 19:00. By 19:30 everyone should be out of the building. We will all be very hungry, please respect this timing! Sunday: The devroom schedules end at 17:00. The closing talk ends at 18:00. Please clear your room by 18:30 at the latest. Cleanup: Please leave your room in the state that you received it. We kindly ask that you collect all the trash and put it in garbage bags outside your room. Keep glass bottles may not be put in garbage bags, please put them at a drop-off point in the hallway. There will be a broom in the hallway, should a quick sweep of the floor or tables be needed. If you are in the K building, please put all folding chairs in the racks outside and redistribute the tables. If every devroom takes a little time to clean up the room, you will save the FOSDEM staff hours of work! Have a great FOSDEM 2014! _______________________________________________ devroom-managers mailing list devroom-managers(a)lists.fosdem.org https://lists.fosdem.org/listinfo/devroom-managers

FOSDEM Arrival times
by Jeremy White 29 Jan '14

29 Jan '14

Myself, Aric, Vincent, Caron, Josh, and Andrew are all on the same flight from Minneapolis and we in theory arrive at 2:20 pm on Friday. With luck, I imagine we'll be at the hotel by 3:30. It's nice if folks can share their arrival time; it's nice to know to look out for someone. That's particularly important if you're new or new-ish. Cheers, Jeremy

FOSDEM plan
by Jeremy White 28 Jan '14

28 Jan '14

The basic plan for FOSDEM is as follows: Friday afternoon / evening: Congregate in the hotel lobby Small groups break off for dinner as events unwind The non jet lagged folks go out for night fun after the jet lagged ones crash Saturday: Morning: the hotel provides breakfast; we usually meet informally during that time. I don't recall the exact time range. Day: Everyone is on their own, but feel free to chatter about plans on this mailing list. It's nice to travel together. Sunday: We start in our room (AW1.120) at 9:00, and we'll finish about 17:00. We (hopefully) have a reservation for 25 people at Chez Leon at 19:30 on Sunday, for those that are staying on. Cheers, Jeremy

Hi folks, This is it. If you are not subscribed to the wineconf mailing list, but you're planning to be at FOSDEM, you are going to be left out of all the cool parties and fun. We'll move our chatter and planning exclusively to that email list. So, if you're coming to FOSDEM, and you didn't get two copies of this email, sign up for it now: http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wineconf Cheers, Jeremy
