18:05:07 <jeevan_ullas_> no_mind: is our friend based out of New Delhi
18:05:24 <gregdek> Great.
18:05:25 <jeevan_ullas_> and I discussed with him on the lines of eucameetup we had in bay area
18:05:33 <gregdek> I see the details in the ticket.  All looks sensible to me.
18:05:36 <jeevan_ullas_> we should have something in New Delhi
18:05:56 <gregdek> Is there an existing AWS meetup there?  Link
18:05:57 <gregdek> ?
18:06:02 <jeevan_ullas_> yeah wait
18:06:08 <no_mind> all except for 50 attendees. THis might be high for Delhi
18:06:43 <jeevan_ullas_> http://www.awsdelhi.com/
18:06:51 <jeevan_ullas_> no_mind: ok
18:07:13 <no_mind> for the first meetup lets target 20-30 attendees
18:07:24 <gregdek> Sounds good.
18:07:37 * jeevan_ullas_ notes delhi is 4 hours drive from his current location
18:08:04 <gregdek> jeevan_ullas_: is that a good thing, or a bad thing, or just a thing?
18:08:07 <no_mind> jeevan_ullas_: it will 6 hrs these days courtesy fog
18:08:23 <jeevan_ullas_> gregdek: good in the sense we don't have to worry about travel costs :)
18:08:33 <jeevan_ullas_> considering the fact travel is a expensive affair in india
18:09:01 <gregdek> Great then. :)
18:09:24 <jeevan_ullas_> no_mind: i am afraid. will be coming to delhi on monday
18:09:43 <gregdek> All right, we'll approve and put on cal.  jeevan_ullas_: you're the owner, I presume?
18:10:00 <jeevan_ullas_> gregdek: yeah. i will take that.
18:10:09 <gregdek> ok. do you have cal write access? I don't recall.
18:10:21 <jeevan_ullas_> nope i dont
18:10:35 <gregdek> #action gregdek will put event from 142 on calendar
18:10:45 <gregdek> #action gregdek will give jeevan_ullas_ write access to event calendar
18:11:18 <gregdek> Re: swag. How's the t-shirt printing going for the coming event?  Can we print extras for this event?
18:11:45 <jeevan_ullas_> i am afraid i have no updates on that. i was hoping koolhead17 would be here to tell about it.
18:12:09 <jeevan_ullas_> did you get the logo thing finalized , i remember koolhead17 sent some email to you?
18:12:26 * gregdek looks.
18:12:47 <shaon> I think koolhead17 is sick
18:12:52 <no_mind> had a cal with koolhead minutes ago, he is down with cold and is going to sleep
18:13:05 <jeevan_ullas_> yeah
18:13:22 <gregdek> Tch.
18:13:31 <gregdek> I thought we discussed this last meeting...
18:13:52 <gregdek> ...the timeframes for a new logo are quite short, and IIRC I passed along the current logo.  Or maybe I thought I did.
18:14:38 <gregdek> Ugh.
18:15:02 <gregdek> OK, we'll talk about this when we get to this event, but I'm probably not going to be happy about it, which is probably my fault.
18:15:17 <gregdek> I think we know what we need to know about this event now.
18:15:24 <gregdek> OK to move on>
18:15:25 <gregdek> ?
18:15:55 <jeevan_ullas_> sure.
18:15:57 <gregdek> mchua: around?
18:16:29 <gregdek> Looks like no... but:

18:16:43 <gregdek> #topic Create a way to find all EuCa slide decks
18:17:15 <gregdek> Looks like mchua create a tag for Eucalytpus slides on slideshare, euca_slides, and there's been a bunch of discussion about slides on the list.  So that's going well.
18:17:25 <gregdek> We'll discuss it next time.
18:17:42 <gregdek> Moving on:
18:17:48 <gregdek> Jloza: around?

18:22:03 <shaon> for the first time in BD
18:22:07 <gregdek> Then will go ahead and put it on the schedule and put you in the schwag rotation.
18:22:12 <gregdek> Nice!
18:22:14 <shaon> and the last part will be euca installation
18:22:33 <shaon> I have pointed out the key topics
18:22:47 <gregdek> shaon: how many attendees do you expect?
18:22:51 <shaon> this will be happening at my university
18:23:04 <shaon> so most of the participants will be amatures
18:23:16 <gregdek> Perfect. :)
18:23:19 <gregdek> Get 'em young!
18:23:22 <shaon> there will be 30+ students
18:23:35 <gregdek> ok.
18:23:38 <shaon> previously I took another workshop
18:23:46 <shaon> and that was quite successful
18:23:48 <gregdek> There's a shipment coming your way anyway, so will include schwag suitable for this event.
18:23:52 <shaon> so hoping for the best
18:24:08 <gregdek> #action gregdek to ship schwag for 30+ attendees for .proj 132
18:24:10 <shaon> gregdek: of course sir :)
18:24:56 <shaon> oh, 132 is another one, there will be more that 30 ppl
18:25:08 <gregdek> ...oh.
18:25:10 <gregdek> OK. :)
18:25:14 <gregdek> How many at that one?
18:25:19 <shaon> do you want me to give the schwag at that event too>
18:25:40 <gregdek> Limited, perhaps, but stickers at least.  We should cover the planet with stickers.  :)
18:25:43 <shaon> there will be around 80-100, this is a national event
18:25:58 <gregdek> Great.
18:26:18 <shaon> okay, that can be done.
18:26:21 <gregdek> #action gregdek to ship stickers et al for 100+ attendees, .proj 132
18:26:55 <gregdek> OK, moving on:
18:26:59 <shaon> I guess that's all for that event
18:27:18 <gregdek> shaon: if you discover you need more, we can put in ticket and revisit next week.
18:27:29 <shaon> should I add the university event to redmine?
18:27:34 <gregdek> koolhead17 is down for the count, but can anyone give insight into .99?
18:27:37 <gregdek> shoan: yes pls.
18:27:42 <gregdek> .proj 99
18:27:43 <eucabot|test> gregdek: Issue 99 (New): FOSS Meet Calicut - https://projects.eucalyptus.com/issues/99
18:27:51 <shaon> gregdek: okay
18:27:52 <jeevan_ullas_> no_mind: you have any idea about this one ?
18:27:52 <gregdek> Looks like it's been delayed until April?
18:28:21 <no_mind> it is scheduled for 25th Feb I think
18:29:00 <no_mind> oh it has been postponed
18:29:05 <jeevan_ullas_> ok koolhead17 says its delayed until aprl
18:29:10 <jeevan_ullas_> yeah
18:29:13 <gregdek> OK, so we'll wait on that one.
18:30:02 <gregdek> All right.  The big last ticket:
18:30:02 <no_mind> yeah March30 - April 1
18:30:10 <gregdek> .proj 89
18:30:11 <eucabot|test> gregdek: Issue 89 (In Progress): Event: GNUify 2012, Pune, India - https://projects.eucalyptus.com/issues/89
18:30:25 <gregdek> So here's where we're at:
18:30:47 <gregdek> * I have approval to pay the invoice for sponsorship, that's going to our finance folks today.
18:31:09 <gregdek> * Stickers, koolhead17 has some goodies that he will bring along.
18:31:31 <gregdek> * Shirts sounds like it's a problem: the event is in 9 days and it's unclear where we stand with logo for local printing.
18:32:00 <gregdek> koolhead17 proposed a logo contest, but I failed to approve (my fault) and it seems like no one is sure where we're at.
18:32:03 * mchua here, reads up, apologizes for being late
18:32:21 <gregdek> mchua, np.  I'm cleaning up my own mess right now.  :/
18:32:35 <mchua> ok, caught up now. :)
18:32:43 <gregdek> So jeevan_ullas_, I need your opinion here: can we get shirts printed in 9 days in India with a stock Euca logo?
18:33:11 <jeevan_ullas_> hehe frankly i have never got shirts printed so i have no idea
18:33:22 <jeevan_ullas_> no_mind: do you have any experience with that?
18:33:22 <gregdek> LOL
18:34:09 <no_mind> how many we need ?
18:34:39 <no_mind> I know couple of printers, depeds on quantity and quality
18:34:40 * mchua looking up fedora india tshirt printing references in the background
18:35:12 * no_mind knows printers in Delhi only
18:35:21 <gregdek> Quality: decent.  Quantity: might as well print a few hundred, since we'll have other India events.
18:35:47 <gregdek> My concern is the short lead time.
18:36:31 <no_mind> we have sufficient time to print 50-100 t-shirts
18:36:43 <no_mind> whats the budget ?
18:37:02 <jeevan_ullas_> i remember putting the budget in the excel
18:37:04 <jeevan_ullas_> wait
18:37:21 <mchua> ...can't find the FUDCon Pune/other-India tshirt provider, but asked and will holler if any answers come back.
18:38:04 * gregdek looks in the ticket.
18:38:27 <jeevan_ullas_> no_mind: we have allocated 5000 Rs but i think it won't be sufficient
18:38:29 <gregdek> Not in the ticket.  Let's say $500.
18:38:34 <no_mind> another option is to contact Gnunify organizers, they will print t-shirts for the event and of decent quality. They can help us
18:38:58 <gregdek> Is $500us a decent budget for 100 shirts of decent/good quality printed locally?
18:39:02 <no_mind> gregdek: $500 is good amount to have about 100 t-shirts
18:39:08 <gregdek> ok.
18:39:44 <gregdek> So who should take this ball?  We have 8 days to:
18:39:46 <no_mind> you want t-shirts in Delhi or in Pune ?
18:40:04 <gregdek> Well, GNUnify is in Pune, and that's the deadline.
18:40:07 <jeevan_ullas_> i think we can take help of Gnunify organizers
18:40:25 <gregdek> jeevan_ullas_: who can lead that?
18:40:25 <no_mind> jeevan_ullas_: when do you leave for Pune ?
18:40:26 <jeevan_ullas_> and i can take back the t-shirts which are there for other events in india
18:40:39 <jeevan_ullas_> i leave on thursday so i will be there in evening
18:40:53 <jeevan_ullas_> 8th feb that is
18:41:27 <no_mind> ok
18:41:48 <no_mind> ping Gnunify guys else I will help arrange it in Delhi
18:41:50 <jeevan_ullas_> no_mind: can you get me in touch with the organizers with regards to t-shirt printing?
18:41:50 <jeevan_ullas_> i can take the lead from their onwards
18:42:12 <jeevan_ullas_> ok i can ping Harshad
18:42:29 <jeevan_ullas_> gregdek: would need the logo front/back
18:42:33 <gregdek> #action jeevan_ullas_ will ping gnunify organizers
18:42:34 <no_mind> jeevan_ullas_: sure, pinged one guy on gmail, if he responds will add you to group chat
18:42:48 <gregdek> #gregdek will get logo to jeevan_ullas_ front and back for shirt asap
18:42:57 <gregdek> #action gregdek will get logo to jeevan_ullas_ front and back for shirt asap
18:43:06 <jeevan_ullas_> :)
18:43:07 <gregdek> OK, gonna be a busy couple of hours after the meeting. :)
18:43:23 <gregdek> All right.  We'll keep in close contact over the next couple of days to get this done -- sorry for the fire drill.
18:43:39 <jeevan_ullas_> gregdek: were you able to send something on my way? i sent you my mail address
18:44:07 <gregdek> jeevan_ullas_: yep, add'l schwag should be on its way.  koolhead17 is also bringing extra.
18:44:20 <jeevan_ullas_> cool.
18:44:47 <no_mind> jeevan_ullas_: got in touch with Sudhanwa from gnunify and told him to come to this channel
18:44:56 <no_mind> lets wait for him for few minutes
18:45:15 <gregdek> I can wait.  This is the most important event for today.
18:45:24 <jeevan_ullas_> sure i am here too
18:45:52 <no_mind> ok
18:46:30 <no_mind> hi sudhanwa
18:46:36 <sudhanwa> hi
18:46:36 <jeevan_ullas_> hello sudhanwa
18:46:50 <gregdek> Hello sudhanwa, thanks for joining us.
18:46:55 <sudhanwa> oh. so many people around. looks like active channel
18:47:00 <no_mind> jeevan_ullas_: meet sudhanwa a FOSS vetran from India and one of the core guys for gnunify
18:47:15 <gregdek> sudhanwa: it's our meeting time.  #eucalyptus is more active generally.
18:47:16 <mchua> howdy, sudhanwa -- this channel does get busy during meeting time. :)
18:47:25 <jeevan_ullas_> yep. never got formally introduced but have been following up on Facebook :)
18:47:29 <sudhanwa> i see.
18:48:00 <no_mind> sudhanwa: I guess jeevan_ullas_ wil be coming to gnunify f
18:48:12 <jeevan_ullas_> yes. tickets booked sir.
18:48:24 <sudhanwa> and koolhead also
18:48:30 <jeevan_ullas_> yes
18:49:10 * no_mind feels happy to see another generation taking over as he will miss gnunify :P
18:49:37 <jeevan_ullas_> sudhanwa: so we were planning to get eucalyptus t-shirts printed for gnunify and we are really short on time
18:49:55 <sudhanwa> yes
18:50:00 <jeevan_ullas_> and as i understand gnunify will be getting some t-shirts printed too
18:50:19 <sudhanwa> yes
18:50:49 <jeevan_ullas_> so if you or someone from gnunify organizing team can assist in getting the euca t-shirts printed it would be great. we are expecting around 100 t-shirts to be printed
18:51:04 <sudhanwa> ok
18:51:05 <jeevan_ullas_> which we will use for gnunify and other events in india
18:51:45 <sudhanwa> frankly speaking, it will be much cheaper in delhi
18:52:09 <jeevan_ullas_> ok
18:52:26 <no_mind> sudhanwa: what is the average cost per t-shirt in Pune ?
18:52:30 * mchua sees the gnunify conversation going on here -- will drop out to do a few other things, but I'm back later this afternoon so gregdek holla if you want me to pick up on anything.
18:53:51 <sudhanwa> no_mind: the ones we have selected are about 500
18:54:14 <gregdek> mchua, thx
18:54:38 <sudhanwa> no_mind knows the type, quality etc.
18:54:51 <jeevan_ullas_> so around $10 per t-shirt
18:54:53 <sudhanwa> cant explain that.
18:55:37 <gregdek> The important thing to me is that we do everything we can to have the shirts at the event with no hiccups.  Where we print, what cost, are less important to me.
18:55:53 <gregdek> Willing to pay a bit of a premium if it helps ensure the shirts are there.
18:56:27 <sudhanwa> we can get it done for you. no issues.
18:56:44 <gregdek> Thanks sudhanwa.  Much appreciated.  What do you need from us?
18:56:53 <sudhanwa> like for the drupalcamp we did it in just 3 days or so.
18:57:06 <sudhanwa> but that was a simple design.
18:57:16 <sudhanwa> plain screen printing.
18:57:25 <gregdek> I will be sending logos asap to jeevan_ullas_, quite plain is ok.
18:58:03 <gregdek> jeevan_ullas_: can you take it from here?
18:58:09 <jeevan_ullas_> yes i can.
18:58:18 <jeevan_ullas_> sudhanwa: i will be in touch very soon
18:58:37 <sudhanwa> i can send you contact details of our vendor for designs, other specs.
18:58:50 <sudhanwa> we can co-ordinate for you.
18:59:00 <jeevan_ullas_> ok
18:59:08 <sudhanwa> payment you can do when you are here.
18:59:27 <jeevan_ullas_> so here is what I will do. i will get the logos from gregdek send it to the vendor keeping sudhanwa in loop.
18:59:30 <jeevan_ullas_> sounds good?
18:59:46 <jeevan_ullas_> collect and pay when i am in pune next week
19:00:00 <gregdek> Love it.
19:00:00 <sudhanwa> you need to select colur, design, quantity also.
19:00:16 <sudhanwa> and sizes
19:00:32 <jeevan_ullas_> ok so more stuff to note down.
19:00:49 <sudhanwa> if you have some references on some websites for these, that will help.
19:01:13 <jeevan_ullas_> i don't think we anything do we gregdek ?
19:01:19 <gregdek> OK, looks like we have our actions.  sudhanwa, thanks lots for your help.
19:01:36 <gregdek> jeevan_ullas_: I will get these.
19:01:57 <gregdek> #action gregdek to get color, design, quantity, sizes to jeevan_ullas_ asap
19:02:01 <sudhanwa> but do send these details quickly. very less time we have. and he has to make the regular T shirts also.
19:02:15 <gregdek> sudhanwa: yes sir, will do.
19:02:52 * sudhanwa checking for the contact details.
19:03:09 <jeevan_ullas_> ok sounds good
19:03:40 <gregdek> OK, we're at time, and we've all got lots to do.  :)
19:03:51 <gregdek> Anyone else have anything pressing before we call the meeting?
19:04:56 * shaon got nothing to say
19:05:08 <sudhanwa> shapparels@gmail.com

19:05:22 * jeevan_ullas_ makes a note
