As usual now, people who volunteered for some item are marked in parenthesis () next to it.

General community stuff:

• Next IRC meeting for the release parties: 5.2.

• Mamarok has a nice tatoo (digg frontpage!)

  • Picture

• Should we consider IRC moderation for meetings? In order to keep them short and focused?

Release party specifics:

• Paid advertisement
  • Costs are too high
  • Possible to write a press release instead
  • Someone should write a generic "press release" in German and French that we can use to spam newspapers and other groups
  • Newspapers to contact:
    • Tagesanzeiger
    • Matin bleu
    • 20minutes (french/swissgerman) (Netztier)
    • Maybe "technology" sections of other newspapers?
    • Should check with students newspapers (EPFL, ETHZ, various schools)
• Location (to be confirmed):

  • Lausanne (17.05) : Epfl (WaVeR)

    • Contacts underway. Could provide room / switches / beamer.

    • We might need voice amplification devices if there are really many people

    • Need a "responsible person of contact" (Tribaal if needed)
    • Should make a "dossier" - wikifaeries, please make this wiki beautiful so we can use it!
      • What is the number of people expected
      • What activities

  • Zurich (24.05): Vortrags-Saal of the ZHdK (Netztier)

• Contacts:
  • gnugeneration.epfl.ch
  • gull
• CDs ordering (Mamarok)

  • Need more Kubuntu this year (obscure market share reasons )

  • /ch/open Swiss remix CDs

Tribaal's footnote:

• We should consider getting united t-shirts, something like "Ubuntu-ch" -with our username-
  • Sticks out of the crowd. Organising team should be easy to spot if needed.

  • Looks cool

  • Printing a t-shirt costs around 40CHF print inc. shipping.
  • We need a design (obviously) that sticks out of the croud (there might be other ubuntu t-shirts around)
