Hello Debianites! We hope you all had a good day trip yesterday. Here is the daily announcements for the 4th day of DebConf. === Volunteers needed! === As we say every day, we always need volunteers for the conference to function. Please volunteer for some shifts every day! [0] https://debconf25.debconf.org/volunteers/ === Conference Dinner (and COVID-19) === Our conference dinner will be held outdoors at Fort du Dellec (the same venue as the Cheese & Wine Party) tonight starting at 19:00. We will set up a table (far away from the others) for the COVID-positive attendees to be able to attend the conference dinner while limiting the risk to others' health. We will have signs up making it clear that the separate table is an area with increased COVID-19 contamination risk. The dinner is a buffet, and COVID-19 food heros will deliver food to that table. For the people who are driving, the organizers will have a breathalyzer available for self-testing before driving away. Super Magic Buses will be available after sundown to go from the Fort to IMT, Camping du Goulet and then downtown Brest, at 23:15 and 00:30, at which time we will close down the dinner venue. === Group photo === We will be having the group photo at 16:00 today. We will all be gathering in the Méridienne talk room before we go out in the sun (!) to have the photo taken, in a grassy area in front of the Foyer des Élèves. When you're coming to Méridienne, please tell the people around you to join for the group photo! COVID-positive people who would like to be edited into the photo are invited to come directly to the group photo location, outside on the grassy area in front of the Foyer des Élèves, at 16:45. === Lightning talks === Do you have a quick demo, or lightning fast talk that you'd like to share with the world? Lightning talks are back this DebConf, and taking place in Méridienne tomorrow, Friday the 18th. at 9:30 CEST. If you'd like to submit your 5 minute-long talk/demo, please email islightningreal@debconf.org, along with the details and your slides as PDF (we'll run the talks on one laptop as far as possible to avoid projector fun). Spaces are limited! === Smoking Areas === We have had issues with smoke from outdoor smokers getting into Centre Vie. We ask smokers to close the entrance door when they are smoking, and to stand *far* away from it. Preferably on the other side of the "outdoor hacking area".
