Meeting Agendas and Notes
Meeting agenda: 20 oct at 15.00 CET
Where: IRC, channel #fscons on FreeNode
- §1 Information
- Registrations
- Currently 90 registered, whereof 69 have paid. Based on historic data, this puts the number of attending at around 200, plus speakers and staff.
- Registrations
- §2 Decisions
- Food
- We'll hire coffee makers and buy coffee etc from Groovy Foods as last year. Groovy has also offered a lunch deal with soup day 1 and vegetarian lasanga day 2. The cost for this, for us, would be 140 kr for one person for both days. We should include this in the price for the tickets where we already offer this, but we should also offer all existing registrations, as well as future registrations, to buy lunch tickets for 100 kr. This can also be offered on site if we order ~5-10% more.
- Speakers Gifts
- The place with GNUs never got back to us about it. So we'll go with free ticket for next years conference and chocolate.
- Video equipment
- Renting equipment to produce videos etc of the talks will cost, according to the volunteer in charge of this, about 10,000 SEK. Jonas will check on this to see if it's feasible.
- Food
- §3 Discussion
mDBUUM I'm out of leauge here. Too much brain power on display!
Notes from meeting: 29 sep at 15.00 CET
Where: IRC, channel #fscons on FreeNode
- §1 Information
- +10 registrations since last week
- Flyers and posters on their way out
- Stian says people want to come if they can find a couch.
TODO: Jonas to push the Coachsurfing group to Linuxföreningen and Ubuntu-SE TODO: Make a special A3 poster (just b/w printing) giving FSCONS.org and asking people to help visitors find a couch, linking also to CS
- §2 Decisions
- Dataföreningen
- Förra året fick FSCONS en en artikelspalt på DFSs sidor i Computer Sweden och det är inget som hindrar i år heller(troligen fred. 23 el.ev. 30 okt). Har du FSCONS loggan i tryckformat kanske den kan komma med också. Det innebär också, tror jag, att den kommer med i nyhetsutskickets länkar till alla medlemmar i Sverige och på DFS huvudsidor, som många prenumererar på via rss. Vore bra om programmet kom tidigt till vår journalist Marianne Loor som också gärna pratar med er innan, så sänd Marianne ett mail om när du tror det skulle vara lämpligt att höras.Sen läggs info upp på mina nätverks sidor och kalendrar dvs. i östra, västra och södra avser då webb och Open Source(tillsamman sex olika platser på dfs sajt ) och skickas i samband med mina inbjudningar till mina aktiviteter. Och det gör jag så fort jag har programmet, så ju fortare jag får programmet så.... :-) Och utöver det fixar jag så att det sätts upp flyers på universitetet och troligen på Länsmuséet och ITceums anslagstavla( ITceum flyttar just in i Länsmuséets lokaler och blir Datormuséet).
- Dataföreningen
TODO: Jonas to accept and prepare registration page with DF discount.
- §3 Discussion
- Swedish Model
- Stian has been in touch with Swedish Model who have offered a band to send to Gothenburg to play at FSCONS if we can sponsor their travel.
- TODO: Stian: Reply to them that we are interested, and looking for funding to bring the artists here.
- TODO: Stian: Check a potential cultural house in Majorna that's just starting out as a potential place for social event
- TODO: Stian: Contact Pallin and ask if he's interested in co-organising the social event.
- Swedish Model
Notes from meeting: 22 sep at 15.00 CET
Where: IRC, channel #fscons on FreeNode
- §1 Information
- Mozilla Foundation Europe joining as a sponsor
- We got a mail two days ago from Mozilla Foundation saying that Mozilla Europe has agreed on a 1000 eur sponsorship of FSCONS
- Flyers are now available
- Jonas informed that we now have flyers in A6/A5/A4 available. They have been distributed to Linköping University, .SE and Wikimedia Sweden (Lennart) and should now also be sent to ljo for Humanisten. If anyone wants flyers, let Jonas know so he can send.
- Registration status
- As of yesterday we had 35 registrations, whereof 25 had paid already. I don't know how this stands against previous years, but according to hesa, more than 15 is good, so we seem to be doing fairly well in terms of registrations, and we know that most of the registrations will appear in the last weeks before the conference.
- Mozilla Foundation Europe joining as a sponsor
- §2 Decisions
- §3 Discussion
- Dataföreningen
- We have been approached by Ralf Andersson at Dataföreningen asking if they can get a discount on the admission for the conference. 20% has been suggested. Jonas will ask what kind of promotion will be done in Dataföreningen for this, and get back to this as a decision point next meeting.
- Dataföreningen
Superior thinking dmoenstrated above. Thanks!

- §1 Information
- Invitation to FSCONS 2009 has been sent out. Please distribute widely!
- TODO: Jonas to create a printable schedule.
- TODO: Lennart distributes flyers to the library; Henrik does CTH; LJO does Humanisten.

- §2 Decisions
- Admission fees for Co-Organisers
- There's been a question from the FSFE if their members (Fellows) can get a reduced admissions fee to the conference. We've discussed a €10 admission fee for Co-Organising organisations (essentially a 50% cut from the €20 default fee). Does this make sense? The same deal would in that case apply to all members of Co-Organisers.
- DECISION: Co-Organisers get 4 free registrations, which they can use in whatever way they please. Additional registrations are 10€ per person. Ideally, this will be dealt with by the Co-Organisers itself, who then report the names and country of origin one week in advance of all people registered through them. WMS will sponsor attendance for its members, and recommends that other organisations do the same.

Hi guys,
I know this might be a bit off topic but seeing that a bunch of you own websites, where would the best place be to host. Someone recommended I use Blue Host<//url> for $6.95 a month which seems like a great deal. Anyone here on wiki.fscons.org using them?
