(21:16:24) Rayvr: at what time should the people be there?
(21:17:12) LarsB: the fair starts at 10 am, 1 hour in advance would be nice so 9 am
(21:18:08) Rayvr: I'll trace a path from station to this place in GMaps
(21:18:45) jean7491: i will mail to alupcs for 2 computers, hoping hans can do the same as for dipro genk
(21:19:18) LarsB: I'll send him an email about it jean
(21:20:56) jean7491: LarsB : ok, do you need posters free your pc ? eventually 300 flyers are available in antwerpen-wommelgem
(21:21:14) LarsB: I've got 7 posters with free your pc
(21:21:30) jean7491: i think it is enough
(21:21:32) LarsB: we could use some flyers but it will be hard for me to get to antwerp again
(21:22:24) hfsdo: if i know where to get them i will bring them
(21:23:51) Rayvr: If I walk from the train station how long would it take?
(21:24:34) hfsdo: Rayvr: i think about half an hour
(21:24:49) LarsB: there is a buss that stopts right in front of the grenslandhallen I think
(21:24:58) LarsB: stops*
(21:25:23) Rayvr: but half hour is fine
(21:25:26) Rayvr: :P
(21:25:38) jean7491: the flyers are in my family in wommelgem (i can mail you details), or i can send 300 flyers through the post, it is the easiest solution
(21:25:54) JanC: google maps has a pedestrian option that tells how far to walk it is  ;)
(21:25:55) LarsB: post is the easiest yes
(21:26:07) LarsB: shall i pm you my adress?
(21:26:07) Rayvr: yea, i know
(21:26:24) ***JanC walks it about 2x as fast as google  ;)
(21:26:34) Rayvr: but usually asking to people works better
(21:29:27) Rayvr: Do I have to pay the 5???
(21:30:18) JanC: Rayvr: no
(21:31:07) Rayvr: So I guess I'll get in by the backdoor =P
(21:32:09) Rayvr: if anybody can

(21:46:33) jean7491: ok, next item will be fosdem, for courtrai, i will coordinate the preparation of the booth

(21:50:29) XiaoShiZi: 6-7/2/2010
(21:50:37) JanC: we'll need some volunteers, but I don't think that will be an issue (already got offers from people outside .be too)
(21:51:34) JanC: and I'd like to sell some stuff again, need to ask if guy or someone else can order it (credit card needed)
(21:51:53) jean7491: JanC : i presume you coordinate this event, including wiki preparation page
(21:52:01) JanC: plus, I should ask markvdb how much money we have (= how much we can invest)
(21:52:09) JanC: right  ☺
(21:52:46) pvandewyngaerde1: i think we could sell a lot,  the ubuntu logo is nice  and wanted
(21:53:23) JanC: well, last year we were (almost) sold-out the 1st day...  ;)
(21:54:33) pvandewyngaerde1: can we get a special to sell-pack for  this kind of events ?
(21:54:43) pvandewyngaerde1: from canonical ?
(21:56:03) LarsB: http://shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?currency=EUR&products_id=578
(21:56:10) LarsB: that would be a nice pack too to sell?
(21:56:21) JanC: pvandewyngaerde1: nope
(21:57:43) JanC: LarsB: maybe, but I think many people prefer T-shirts, etc.  ;)
(21:57:51) LarsB: k
(21:57:58) JanC: at least, at FOSDEM
(21:58:00) pvandewyngaerde1: mostly the cd's are given out for free

(21:58:23) LarsB: You can also pay with maestro on the canonical webshop now JanC, no need for a mc
(21:58:47) JanC: LarsB: I don't have UK Maestro card  :P
(21:58:55) LarsB: Doesn't need to be UK
(21:59:00) LarsB: Maestro is European
(21:59:26) LarsB: just need to enter your card number instead of account number
(22:00:11) pvandewyngaerde1: those metal keychains seems nice, a  wannahave
(22:00:19) JanC: LarsB: Maestro has no European online payment platform AFAIK (certainly last year it didn't work)
(22:00:38) LarsB: It works on poker sites, why not on Canonical?
(22:00:50) JanC: well, I can try...

(22:07:26) JanC: I guess nobody has a proposal (yet)  ;)
(22:07:43) jean7491: there was no reaction in the mailing list to the meeting report on this item !
(22:09:03) jean7491: i wonder if someone is interested by this possible project ?

(22:21:44) XiaoShiZi: ok
(22:21:47) JanC: "living" on the mailing list recently was the issue of the program for cheap PCs sponsored by government
(22:21:57) Rayvr: The Wiki has a problem, i cant log in =/
(22:22:41) JanC: anybody know a link to the public tender for that project?
(22:22:54) XiaoShiZi: and sponsored by windows/norton
(22:23:06) JanC: sponsored by nobody
(22:23:40) JanC: seriously, there was just nobody else competing for those contracts...
(22:24:12) XiaoShiZi: I understand. so sorry for our taxmoney
(22:24:50) jean7491: is there something more than mailing list exchanges ?
(22:24:54) JanC: XiaoShiZi: if you know a company that wants to offer Ubuntu PCs..  ☺
(22:24:57) XiaoShiZi: can ubuntu.be still make an offer for this?
(22:25:22) JanC: XiaoShiZi: the public tender is over...
(22:25:49) JanC: and ubuntu.be can never bid on this
(22:25:55) JanC: we're not a company
(22:26:38) JanC: we could help a company make an offer
(22:27:59) JanC: and we can work on making sure the public tender is as FLOSS-friendly as possible
(22:30:37) jean7491: the program start2surf@home was an opportunity, but it is too late to be part of it ! just think about something else !
(22:31:11) JanC: jean7491: yeah, that's why I say we need to be more prepared next time  ;)
(22:31:34) JanC: and maybe try to find companies that are interested
(22:32:47) Carroarmato0 a quitté le salon (quit: "Sto andando via")
(22:32:48) jean7491: or find another way to approach people starting with computers
(22:32:49) JanC: and make people/companies aware of this
(22:35:00) jean7491: i have to go , now end of the meeting, thanks to all participants !
(22:35:40) jean7491: or just before to leave, Rayvr about "ik" ?
(22:36:06) Rayvr: well, is about the gods in the ancient cultures
(22:36:14) Rayvr: Ik means "wind" but also "black"
(22:36:21) Rayvr: and is a god made in two parts
(22:36:35) Rayvr: the dark side and freedom (black & wind)
(22:36:59) Rayvr: so history is something about this ... quite long and I dont remember all the details :P
(22:37:25) Rayvr: something about revolutions against opression
(22:37:48) Rayvr: when the Spanish left America there were still their sons
(22:38:35) Rayvr: and the language is Tzeltal
(22:38:50) Rayvr: i've heard it only once
