I usually improvise every mail, depending on the people I'm writing to. I'm not that good with standardised text. Perhaps you can try to formulate something, and I'll be happy to comment 16:39:34 <bittin> alright 16:39:57 <xenadu> stian1 ok will do 16:40:04 <Stian1> great, thanks 16:40:04 <skymandr> great! 16:40:12 <Stian1> any questions before we proceed? 16:40:32 <Stian1> no, ok 16:40:38 <Stian1> #topic Café 16:41:11 <bittin> i got a small question in the end 16:41:23 <ljo> We need someone responsible for the smaller café we are planning this year. 16:41:44 <skymandr> if "end as in end of meeting" there is a spot for "other" at the end of the agenda, bittin 16:41:46 <evaristus> I thought the café would be outsourced? 16:42:11 <bittin> skymandr: yeah i meant in the other spot 16:42:30 <ljo> Since lunch is provided by other partner we only plan coffee/tea/4-5 different snacks and walffles for cafe 16:42:45 <Stian1> mmm, waffles 16:42:48 <oliverp> ok sounds good 16:42:55 <oliverp> :) 16:43:19 <evaristus> I think people will be disapointed that there's no club mate (I got the question today...) 16:43:30 <oliverp> I hope chocolate bolls counds as a snack ;) 16:43:36 <oliverp> *couts 16:43:57 <Stian1> we could get both club maté and beer too 16:44:01 <oliverp> *counts 16:44:13 <Stian1> it's just that the café is smaller than last year 16:44:17 <evaristus> well, for beer we still have the license problem, no? 16:44:36 <bittin> mmm waffles with strawberry jam <3 16:44:45 <Stian1> it's ok. we're in a gray zone, not a black zone ;-) 16:44:56 <evaristus> ok, so what does smaller means? 16:45:09 <oliverp> I would be disapointed if there was no chocolate bolls ;) 16:45:34 <ljo> Well if everyone is keeping to naming all present participants and do not let anyone in we are safe. 16:46:03 <xenadu> temporary autonomous zone 16:46:40 <Stian1> the big issue remains though: we need to recruit someone to take charge of the café 16:47:16 <skymandr> small means just a few items for sale: delicato balls, fruit, some other snack, perhaps waffles. 16:47:24 <evaristus> Stian1: I think my questions are pertinent to that end: what does smaller means and what part of it are outsourced 16:47:26 <skymandr> + coffee and tea for free as usual. 16:47:40 <Stian1> lunch is outsorced 16:48:23 <Stian1> it might be the case that we will get a food wagon in the evening for warm food 16:48:43 <Stian1> the café will sell some drinks and some food, but not have a wide variety 16:48:55 <xenadu> Is Tam with us this year? 16:49:01 <evaristus> but the rest is for us to do? I mean buying snacks/drinks, manning the caffé, cleaning... 16:49:07 <ljo> No she is occupied with other stuff. 16:49:07 <skymandr> yes. 16:49:25 <Stian1> I think skymandrs answer was for evaristus ;-) 16:49:36 <skymandr> hence why we want to keep it as small as humanely possible. 16:49:37 <xenadu> got it ;) 16:50:17 <Stian1> so, if you can think of someone who can be in charge of the café, please ask them and let ljo know 16:50:28 <Stian1> otherwise, we'll try to recruit someone from the volunteers 16:50:48 <oliverp> ok 16:51:00 <evaristus> Is there really no way to outsource it completely? 16:51:15 <Stian1> evaristus: yes, but we can't afford it 16:51:46 <Stian1> perhaps if we had sold three times as many tickets ;-) 16:51:57 <evaristus> :-/ 16:52:23 <Stian1> the lunch menu item on the agenda is for the board meeting, so I think there's only the "other" topic left 16:52:33 <Stian1> #topic Other info 16:52:38 <evaristus> Wait, what? 16:53:00 <xenadu> ljo: it's a long shot, but maybe Myriam Boure has a suggstion for cafe 16:53:02 <Stian1> evaristus: did you have a question before we proceed? 16:53:03 <evaristus> I put it there and I'm not comming to the board meating? 16:53:16 <xenadu> she talks about Open Food Networks 16:53:19 <Stian1> ah, ok, sorry, I thought it was ljo who put it there 16:53:34 <Stian1> #topic Lunch menu 16:53:46 <evaristus> Do we know the menu (or at least the kind of food)? 16:54:04 <Stian1> xenadu: please ask her if you think she can help out :-) 16:55:01 <ljo> Half-full vegan, probably rice as base. 16:55:11 <evaristus> Who's cooking? 16:55:44 <ljo> The one we finally will have an contract with. 16:55:57 <evaristus> ok 16:56:16 <evaristus> can you send the menu on the ML when you have it so that I can include it on the site? 16:56:25 <evaristus> (that's it for me on this ) 16:56:36 <ljo> Yes, sure. It is any case not just person, but a collective. 16:56:47 <Stian1> ok, good 16:56:58 <Stian1> anything for "other info"? 16:57:02 <Stian1> #topic Other info 16:57:13 <Stian1> bittin: you had a question? 16:57:31 <xenadu> what board meeting? 16:57:32 <skymandr> I also have some short info. 16:57:43 <xenadu> stian1: will ask her 16:57:56 <skymandr> #info Some pages of policies regarding cookies and cameras/photography have been added to the wiki: 16:57:59 <skymandr> #info https://wiki.fscons.org/Regarding_cookies and https://wiki.fscons.org/Camera_guidelines 16:58:00 <swirly> Regarding cookies - FSCONS wiki 16:58:02 <skymandr> #info The latter also serves as information for volunteers working with recording sessions or snapping pictures. 16:58:02 <Stian1> xenadu: we will have a board meeting directly after this IRC meeting 16:58:05 <skymandr> #info In addition, we're working on revising the code of conduct. 16:58:20 <Stian1> thanks, skymandr 16:58:33 <bittin> i was thinking about tables and banners, me and oliverp have talked a bit on facebook about maybe having a Mozilla table or not having a Mozilla table, as we are three people from Mozilla coming this year and 2 of us are helping at FSCons aswell, we might not be manning it 24/7 so we/me have been thinking of its good to have a table with Varsegod and some stuff on it, or if i will walk around with some swag, and if someone wants it they ask me or Oliver o 16:58:56 <Stian1> bittin: no problem 16:59:11 <Stian1> there is room for one more table, so please do :-) 16:59:12 <oliverp> yeah cool :) 16:59:21 <bittin> and the other question is about a Rollup banner is it alright to place a Rollup banner in one of the Workshop rooms for a while, and then put it somewhere else or what is the best ? 16:59:36 <Stian1> bittin: you mean for Mozilla? 16:59:45 <bittin> Stian1: yeah a Firefox OS one :p 16:59:52 <bittin> during Michaels IOT talk 17:00:12 <Stian1> I don't think that would be right, seeing as Mozilla is not a sponsor 17:00:25 <bittin> also not sure if i will bring t-shirts as i only got one, but atleast got some stickers aswell etc 17:00:43 <bittin> Stian1: ah alright, maybe in the hall somewhere if its okay, if its not okay at all i guess i can leave it at home 17:00:59 <Stian1> bittin: you can always have it next to the Mozilla table 17:01:27 <bittin> alright, sounds like a plan tough i am not sure we will man the table 24/7 this year but hope thats okay 17:01:34 <Stian1> sure, no problem 17:01:57 <bittin> that was i wanted to ask then i got that sorted and answered thanks :) 17:02:04 <Stian1> ok, great :-) 17:02:14 <Stian1> anything else before we close the meeting? 17:03:04 <skymandr> Nothing from me. 17:03:57 <Stian1> ok, good.
