I have nothing new to report either. 16:12:35 <Stian1> Does anyone else have anything? 16:12:45 <ljo> Maybe that we have one archive/museum person ready. 16:12:55 <evaristus> Yes, I send a mail to the list but it never came through 16:13:08 <evaristus> Stian1: can you check mailman's filters 16:13:25 <Stian1> for the org-list? 16:13:31 <evaristus> Stian1: yes 16:13:53 <evaristus> ljo: do you mean someone to manage fscons' archives? 16:14:28 <Stian1> evaristus: there was only one mail in queue, from January 16:14:29 <ljo> I mean speaker for the conference. 16:14:52 <Stian1> ljo: that was the person you told me about when we met, right? 16:15:24 <evaristus> Ok, a person that'll talk about museums... 16:15:25 <ljo> yes, the head of the digitalisation organsation. 16:15:35 <evaristus> Stian1: strange... 16:16:10 <evaristus> #info ljo and oliver had a meeting about sponsors and made a list of companies to contact firstly 16:16:29 <Stian1> I've been idea storming a bit with skymandr about a library++ track where she would fit in. I think such a track would be nice to finally have this year. 16:17:01 <ljo> yes, and now we have a prominent speaker. :) 16:17:07 <evaristus> #action ljo will send the emails of last year's volunteers to Stian1 16:17:13 <Stian1> I thought I'd reach out to some potential speakers and ask them to help concretise the track. 16:17:23 <Stian1> ljo: yes, very good! 16:18:08 <Stian1> evaristus: when did you send that e-mail? 16:18:59 <evaristus> Maybe we can ask those guys http://archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Main_Page 16:19:05 <evaristus> Stian1: this week 16:20:43 <evaristus> Stian1: I also came across a group that try to preserve old video games in a "Playable" state. I think they can also come with old consoles and stuff for the social area. 16:20:52 <Stian1> No e-mail from you has gone to the archives either. Unless someone has declined your e-mail, I don't know what can have happened. 16:21:22 <evaristus> In the mail, I wanted to report that, sadly, fscons will collide with mozzilla festival this year again... 16:21:36 <Stian1> Thanks for the tips, I've added the link to https://wiki.fscons.org/Track_ideas#Libraries 16:21:55 <Stian1> ah, shame 16:22:39 <Stian1> ljo: I got the list, but it's rather short. Don't we have close to 100 addresses for previous volunteers? 16:25:23 <ljo> Then gregoire have the older ones. These are from last year. 16:25:36 <evaristus> do I ? I'll check... 16:26:03 <evaristus> #action evaristus will try to find the emails of the volunteers from before 16:26:20 <evaristus> ljo, any update on the display system at humanisten? 16:26:22 <Stian1> yes, the list seems to be only the volunteers from last year 16:26:39 <ljo> Yes, that were the one I said I would fix at least. 16:27:34 <ljo> No progress on display system, but not outruled yet. 16:29:04 <Stian1> Ok, thanks. 16:30:06 <evaristus> I'll try to find the volunteers from previous years but shouldn't we centralize this somewhere? 16:30:12 <Stian1> Perhaps that's it for the meeting, then? I'll send out that e-mail to the addresses I have for now. 16:30:34 <Stian1> Well, it would be good if we have them centralised on an e-mail list 16:30:49 <Stian1> alternatively, an encrypted file in a git repo 16:30:51 <evaristus> oh yeah, that's a solution :-) 16:31:02 <evaristus> well, let's try to have an email list 16:31:07 <Stian1> :-) 16:31:12 <evaristus> that would be good for this purpose 16:31:55 <Stian1> yes, I hope we can find the older addresses as well. We've had quite a few good people working with us in the past. 16:32:00 <ljo> But the problem is they are removed every year. And they are not properly asked if we can send info. 16:32:16 <evaristus> removed from where ? 16:32:35 <ljo> I recruited one previous last week talking about it. 16:32:43 <ljo> The emaillist 16:33:11 <evaristus> we don't have an emaillist 16:34:04 <Stian1> Also, if they've signed up to be a volunteer at a point, I don't think we need to ask them as long as we have an unsubscribe link in the footer. 16:35:20 <ljo> we had a list. 16:35:36 <evaristus> if we had a list, why can't we use it now? 16:35:46 <evaristus> oh, on the old server maybe?? 16:36:04 <ljo> yes, 16:36:47 <ljo> It should atleast be safe with last years volunteers. 16:37:25 <Stian1> I just found I have the volunteer list from 2009. There might be some people there who can be added too. I'll go selectively through it. 16:38:50 <skymandr> I also have nothing to report! 16:39:15 <Stian1> Ok! Welcome, though! 16:39:33 <skymandr> (and sorry for being late... I had completely forgotten about the meeting... I suggest we start sending emalreminders.) 16:40:09 <Stian1> I actually did send out one today! 16:40:15 <ljo> I have the 2012 volunteer emails on paper too. 16:40:21 <Stian1> but it didn't come to the list 16:40:31 <evaristus> hum, so it's not only me... 16:40:41 <evaristus> there seems to be something wrong with the list 16:40:42 <Stian1> evaristus, ljo: there might be some problems with the server 16:41:06 <evaristus> Isn't that the non-official fripost list server? 16:41:35 <Stian1> I can't remember which server it is, ljo should know. 16:42:09 <Stian1> ljo: perhaps you could send me a scan of the 2012 volunteer list? 16:43:21 <ljo> I type it in, it is quite short. 16:43:31 <ljo> I am checking. 16:43:41 <Stian1> Ok, great, thanks! 16:45:16 <skymandr> got it! 16:45:53 <evaristus> me too, what happened? 16:45:57 <Stian1> yes, me too. Apparently the list has been unreachable since 8 April 16:46:12 <Stian1> at least, that was the earliest e-mail I just got. 16:46:39 <ljo> I restarted the queuerunner 16:46:51 <Stian1> good 16:47:11 <Stian1> it doesn't seem there was anything crucial for fscons that got delayed though 16:49:14 <evaristus> do we have anything else to discuss? 16:49:30 <Stian1> I don't think so. Any objections to closing the meeting? 16:49:39 <evaristus> no 16:50:24 <Stian1> Ok, let's close it then. evaristus: will you tell MeetBot? 16:50:31 <evaristus> #endmeeting
