Hello people! Our next meeting will take place on Thursday November 3rd, starting at 20:00 UTC. As always, we'll try to keep it under an hour maximum. You can find the proposed agenda here: http://deb.li/il9wc Here's also last meeting's summary. Sorry for the delay. More complete infos on the wiki: https://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/DebConf17/Meetings/2016-10-20 ---------------- *Welcome to new locals!* Recently, three new people joined our group: * soli (fundraising) * abdelq (immigration & visa) * bibit (dealing with non-technical stuff such as talking to companies) *Conference program* A first speaker has been contacted but declined. 2 more people will be contacted soon! We also talked about a possible conference theme but could not agree on anything. *Catering* Tiago has not had time to do anything. More news next meeting! *Website* Valessio proposed some visuals: https://s13.postimg.org/4nrtsl3s7/dc17_web.png He said he would start working on CSS soon. *Accommodation* We talked a lot and decided: * we would plan for a majority of sponsored people to stay in classrooms * we would rent as much hotel rooms as we can without risk to give us the option to have a majority of sponsored people at the hotel if we wish * we will not consider asking sponsored people to pay a delta to get a hotel room *Budget draft* Budget has been drafted! A few things are missing, but we are looking to raise 230-50K CAD from sponsorship. We need a 5M CAD civil liability insurance for the venue :( *New meeting time* We will keep this meeting schedule (meetings on Thursdays 20:00 UTC each 2 weeks) since we could not find something better. ----------------
