[Debconf-team] DebConf "weekday food" update from JJ call today.
Richard and I had a call with AG from Columbia regarding logistics of
weekday food handling.
It basically boils down to one option, which AG has tentatively agreed
to, and will be confirming with me on a concall 11AM EST on Monday.
We are looking at committing and paying for some number (we had said
120) lunch and dinner meals for every day of the conference two weeks
in advance of the conference. We must provide a volunteer or two to
work the door of the cafeteria, who will work closely with their door
staff, and be present for the entire duration of each sponsored meal
to verify that folks are "on the list" (and check them off against our
quota). In the unlikely event we don't consume 120 meals, we will
still get charged for them. In the likely event we go over, we will
have to reconcile at the end of each meal, via credit card or cash.
One thing outstanding, which we need to decide very soon, if we plan
to use JJ during DebCamp, is whether or not our plan is to use JJ for
sponsored meals during DebCamp. I need to let them know one way or
another, and work out a separate plan for DebCamp if we are using
them. (I do believe JJ still thinks we are using them for DebCamp, but
I could be mistaken).
Thanks,
Brian
