Human summary
=============
* Budget: We aren't in a disastrous situation. Likely 20 people will
be told 'no, to, and with even more not reconfirming even better.
Food costs may be lower than our worst-case plan. DrDub gave
updated numbers on fundraising: 65k pledged, perhaps 20k more likely
from the way it looks now. (ed: I did some updates with recent
numbers, and it looks even better)
* Sponsored $tourists: 40 posibilities on the list, 20 expect to be
said "no" to.
* Scheduling: dkg will head up scheduling for now, both pre- and
during conference, but will seek others to help, and possibly even
hand it off.
* "unconference" idea: We agreed on ana's idea of scheduling via a
wiki the day before, at (for example) 21:00 the night before it gets
merged into Penta in one big batch.
* Proceedings: Not printed, but sapphire will work on a PDF of them.
It will start off with titles + abstracts, papers if a speaker wants
them. Safir will prod people to fill in abstracts if they need to.
* t-shirts, stuff to be printed, other misc things. We need to
compare local prices and customs stuff. Richard will ask in
localteam meeting tomorrow. T-shirt manager decides the colors.
We'll try for something like mugs for CU staff which help us out, as
well as shirts/food if they want it.
* reconfirmation reminder? We'll have one more a day before reconf
deadline, very short.
* Any other business: proceed with micah's talk proposal
* Next meeting: SUNDAY June 20th, 19:00 UTC.
