All, The security team would like to have a sprint annex face-to-face meeting in the weekend of 16-18 January 2015. The preferred location is Linux Hotel, Essen. We've been in contact with the LH and we have an option for that weekend. There's no set agenda at this point, but there's a track record of previous meetings which have covered a wide array of issues and have been in my opinion very succesful. Such things as team workflows, hardened build flags, LTS and decisions on specific problematic packages have come to fruition on these meetings in the past. https://wiki.debian.org/DebianSecurity/Meetings Not everyone can confirm their attendance at this point. I've decided to calculate with an upper bound of 10 people based on the estimates I've received and the charge of 60 euro per person per weekend for the venue. This amounts to 2500 euros as the maximum budget that I'm requesting at this point. LH is very flexible and we only have to pay them for people actually attending. FYI. these are the individual estimates I received. Not everyone of this list is sure they can attend. Guiseppe 300 Yves-Alexis 150 Moritz 90 Thijs 100 Salvatore 250? Florian 130 Luciano 175 Raphael 210 Nico and Stefan will probably not be attending. We've not heard yet from Michael, he's the only team member from the new world; when he wants to attend we'll need to explicitly request extra budget at that point. While I'm at it, I would also like to propose that Linux Hotel is added as a 'friendly sprint venue' to the wiki. Cheers, Thijs
