Who asked? 14:21:09 spotz was conversing with someone in teh foundation about it last I heard 14:21:24 Well, we want space adjacent to the PTG but not integrated. I suppose it's splitting hairs though since space is space. 14:21:26 emccormick: diablo_rojo 14:21:45 The unfortunate thing with this next PTG is there are going to be less dedicated rooms. 14:21:57 Sounds like there will be some large halls with space carved out for different groups. 14:22:02 Yeah that was the concern I expressed 14:22:04 * smcginnis is a little skeptical of this arrangement. 14:22:22 Maybe we should go old school and have it in a hotel lobby bar :D 14:23:03 well if our group is small enough that's always an option 14:23:10 but if it were 60 people, less so 14:23:56 mihalis68_: Erin Disney 14:25:02 I told them 15-20 but it would depend on the overall number attending. If there's only 1000 people vs 6000... 14:27:18 1000 at the summit? 14:28:03 Seems like there'd be 1000 Chinese at a minimum 14:28:47 How about we tweet for intent to attend the summit and interest in an Ops day there 14:28:52 Maybe a doodle poll? 14:28:56 that's a good idea 14:29:13 This all may be moot and better to just put off til a non-china summit if it's like 10 people 14:29:14 I have the email address of Horace Li, a Foundation member in charge of APAC so I can ask him to promote within China community. 14:29:18 Or like I said, lobby bar 14:29:34 don't worry, we'll get to the lobby bar 14:29:42 but I feel like we might get a good turnout 14:29:52 we shouldn't assume from the get-go that we won't 14:30:03 *nod* 14:30:16 is doodle easy to drive? 14:30:51 Yeah I think it's super basic 14:31:18 Could also just do a twitter poll too I guess 14:31:53 we used survey monkey once, that was ok 14:32:03 A) I'm going to the summit and would like an Ops day 14:32:12 but all the stuff you really want is in the pay tiers 14:32:14 B) I'm going to the summit, but an Ops day? Meh 14:32:19 C) Not going. 14:32:49 this seems like a reasonable plan 14:32:53 Doodle is just nice for being a one-pager and everyone can see everyone else's vote 14:32:57 shall I do it from the ops account 14:33:00 but twitter is easier still 14:33:13 Yeah I think that'd be best 14:33:39 #action mihalis68_ to put up a twitter poll about the possibility of an ops day at the next summit in shanghai 14:36:02 +1 14:37:51 #topic 2020 meetups 14:37:55 any news on those? 14:38:36 no update 14:38:41 So we discussed maybe doing Europe next 14:38:57 but we need to talk to whoever it was that was offering a possible host. 14:39:06 Trying now to remember who it was 14:39:19 simon-AS559 maybe had someone? 14:39:22 blanking atm 14:39:52 I can tell that everyone is a bit distracted/unprepared this week. I certainly am 14:39:54 Maybe we need to go ahead and initiate the 2020 Call for Hosts 14:40:02 shall we resolve to make next week a better one? 14:40:21 Sounds super 14:40:23 before we can call for hosts we would need consensus on regions 14:41:04 I proposed Meetup #1 EU and Meetup #2 APAC 14:41:34 so I guess anyone +1 or -1 that when you wake up :D 14:41:40 I thought we agreed on that one 14:41:58 I thought so too, but I dunno if we had quorum on it 14:42:00 that's right, i was just reading scrollback. We are roughly in agreement to propose #1 EU, #2 APAC 14:42:06 so we can issue a request for hosting 14:42:28 that would be USA, EU, APAC in that order, which seems fine to me 14:42:36 OK. I'll take on the etherpads and recycle the email I sent last time 14:42:42 I know erik you've insisted that it was supposed to be NA every other one 14:42:48 great 14:43:01 nono I'm the one that suggested skipping one at least 14:43:08 #action emccormick to start work on a call for hosting 2020 meetups, in the order EU, APAC 14:43:10 We can talk about longer term later 14:43:37 but for next year at least that'll put us on a better alternating schedule form the summits for the non NA ones 14:43:47 yeah, ok. So nobody is trying to hold to that rule, so we're in agreement to the extent that this meeting represents the larger group of organisers 14:43:51 we have possible host for APAC already from Korea 14:44:06 right 14:44:28 Pretty stoked about that one. Korea will be all new for me 14:44:31 think we've touched on all the main points this week 14:44:33 so 14:44:37 #topic any other business 14:44:48 I'm sure we're all trying to finish off before a long long weekend 14:44:51 4 days for me! 14:45:02 me too 14:45:55 I'll email the minutes this week with a summary saying that we're tentatively agreed on that order of future meetups, as well as about to ask the community about an ops meetup at shanghai 14:46:16 okie doke 14:46:22 +1 thank you 14:46:33 #action mihalis68_ to email the mailing list with this weeks minutes since a couple of important things were decided 14:47:33 final call for input this week 14:47:37 Have a nice long weekend for the US folks. For the rest, have fun at work suckers! 14:47:57 hey now 14:47:58 <3 14:48:03 hehe 14:48:03 Take care everyone 14:48:07 :) 14:48:19 have a nice weekend EVERYONE 14:48:21 thanks all 14:48:24 #endmeeting
