(21:19:28) mimor: I'm not sure if i can get there.
(21:19:34) mimor: my car broke down :(
(21:20:25) jean7491: this event is a booth within an opendoor of hcc vlaanderen https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/HCC_Vlaanderen_OpenDeurDag_2009-09-19
(21:20:27) mimor: according to their website they're sponsored by Ubuntu/canonical ... should we check if there is already someone doing something about ubuntu?
(21:21:17) jean7491: 2 months ago they were asking for a booth!
(21:21:29) JanC: I could help with SFD (I know where it is, my grandparents lived there behind the corner)
(21:21:36) Indra6oc: hi all
(21:21:52) jean7491: hi Indra6oc
(21:22:28) jean7491: JanC, can you be considered as coordinator for the sfd?
(21:22:57) jean7491: with a lot of help, of course !
(21:23:05) mimor: I can try to help
(21:23:14) mimor: is it possible to get there from ghent without a car?
(21:23:40) mimor: (note that I'm a cheap guy ><)
(21:23:44) JanC: jean7491: I can do that, I'll first see what they expect from HCC
(21:24:13) JanC: mimor: if I go I can always pick you up
(21:24:34) jean7491: ok, i will check for the last posts i received from hcc
(21:24:56) JanC: getting there without a car is also possible, but requires train + tramway or train + metro + bus
(21:25:07) jean7491: and i hope that jurgen can help!
(21:26:42) mimor: JanC, If you could/would/want to pick me up, It would be my pleasure to assist you!
(21:27:38) jean7491: additionally there could be other volunteers helping for the sfd, again i send later a call in the mailing list for a team of 4 to 6 volunteers
(21:28:31) mimor: ok
(21:29:00) mimor: who's going to edit the wikipage on this one?
(21:29:00) jean7491: enough for the sfd
(21:29:32) jean7491: mimor what do you mean?
(21:29:49) mimor: jean7491, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/HCC_Vlaanderen_OpenDeurDag_2009-09-19
(21:30:51) jean7491: who has info to add is free to edit and complete the wiki!
(21:31:13) jean7491: i started with what i knew
(21:31:19) mimor: ok
(21:31:42) mimor: but before I edit it and put my name on it, i'd like to know if there will be enough people
(21:31:50) mimor: for now, we're 2 ><
(21:32:21) jean7491: put your name and others will follow !
(21:32:42) mimor: done
(21:33:44) jean7491: for all events, i presume we succeed with enough volunteers, ... and later if not possible, we can cancel!
(21:34:01) JanC: mimor: first we need to see what we can do there anyway (and I want to know how many people they expect)
(21:35:02) mimor: ok, So i'm listed there ... feeling lonely :p
(21:35:53) jean7491: JanC, mimor will look for more information about accenta fair in ghent, what is expected from ubuntu-be, before posting in the mailing list. see if it is possible for us ?
(21:36:46) JanC: jean7491: accenta fair is a whole week ?
(21:37:05) mimor: jup
(21:37:25) jean7491: probably not possible, but perhaps non permanent booth ?
(21:37:50) mimor: but Martine has registered the company send out a mail to all of the employees to tell us we have a booth at accenta.
(21:38:31) mimor: when i asked whom would be standing at our booth and what the subject would be... she replied: "I'll be there and... I search people to say something"
(21:38:32) mimor: :D
(21:38:49) mimor: So I told her to take a look at Ubuntu-be ;)
(21:38:49) JanC: we need more info at least
(21:39:16) mimor: Ok, I'll ask her what she's expecting
(21:39:59) mimor: as far as i know, all the things that are relevant to informatics will be welcome :D
(21:40:08) mimor: but I guess she's expecting talks and demo's
(21:40:22) mimor: I'm not sure tough... that's what I'll ask her tomorrow
(21:40:29) jean7491: what do you mean "Martine has registered the company"
(21:41:39) jean7491: ok, we will see when you have more info !
