<jean7491> you are welcome at both events

<jean7491> ok
<jean7491> anything else about events ?
<Clamam> no
<JanC> jean7491: do you think it's useful to bring t-shirts to Ostend?
<jean7491> no, i've to work with zandletters to promote foss (and a few gratis software), but not focused on ubuntu , ...
<jean7491> a part of the pc's (from bib) will run on windows, and a nother part with ubuntu, ...
<JanC> okay, I might bring t-shirts but keep them in my car then (in case somebody wants something)
<JanC> jean7491: what applications did you have in mind already?
<jean7491> t-shirts in dipro ghent and nielse computer day , ...
<JanC> Ghent will probably work, Niel is somewhat far away, unless nero picks them up and brings them back
<Clamam> if we sell t-shirts on dipro faires, is the fee then not higher because we sell things
<JanC> Clamam: not if we don't sell things other booths sell
<massimo21> ?
<JanC> so, we can't sell PCs with Ubuntu or something like that
<JanC> but nobody will sell anything less because we sell a t-shirt  ☺
<jean7491> t-shirts: i think a kenneth's collegue is living in or around ostend, you could ask kenneth for possibility?  
<JanC> well, I will probably go to Ghent myself
<jean7491> JanC - answer to your previous question: applications as openoffice, firefox, thunderbird, vlc, and free non foss avast skype and picasa
<jean7491> expected public is low level in informatica
<jean7491> limitation due to cooperation with zandletters, ubuntu is not the focus, but will be indirectly presented
<JanC> hm, sounds like Phatch might be on target too then
<jean7491> ?
<jean7491> Phatch ?
<JanC> http://photobatch.stani.be/
<JanC> it's a bit late to ask Stani if he can come probably...
<jean7491> idd
<JanC> but we can show it
<JanC> will there be sessions about 1 program at a time, or continuous demos of everything?
<jean7491> we will work with 4 sessions of 45 or 60 min: 10 min presentation sfd, foss, other gratis software, and then 3 groups openoffice - internet (firefox and avast) and multimedia (vlc, picasa), and workshop demos and explanation for the remaining time
<jean7491> we have no experience on this matter, ...
<jean7491> last events organized in bib ostend : 20 to max 40 people, no "specialists"
<jean7491> last events: ubuntu presentation in march and release party in may
<jean7491> we continue with topic # 2. Promotion
<jean7491> first item - Adding commercial links to the website 
<jean7491>  no progress since last meeting, ... 
<jean7491>  we already discussed the topic, see draft in the wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/Website/Commercial_links-draft …
<jean7491> before to launch the project and contacting companies, we wait for  a central point of contact for this matter (likely contact@ubuntu-be.org), …
<jean7491> and once done, we can start with announcement in the mailing list
<jean7491> JanC , your opinion ?
<nero> didn't know there was a picasa for linux?
<jean7491> yes
<JanC> I updated the DNS for mailserver today (might take 48h to be visible for everybody), and the config is almost done (need to check everything for security), then I need to ask FSFE to forward the port (they said it would be no problem), after that it should all work
<JanC> s/FSFE/FSFFrance/
<jean7491> ok, when it is ok, inform me and we will have to see how it works and compose a "contact group" with volunteers members of ubuntu-be.org, to examine the applications
<jean7491> and when it is ok, we can launch the project through the mailing list and contacting companies
