Re: [guadec-list] A couple of questions

Hi Chema and all GUADEC 2012 planning team, 

Thanks for the agenda for the next meeting, it is a good start to discuss about the date. 

I would like to discuss about the mail list for GUADEC planning with all of you, there are three mail lists about GUADEC, see below:

guadec-list	Community list for GUADEC organisation
guadec-local	Forum for local GUADEC planning team
guadec-papers	GUADEC Paper Review Team

gudec-list is a community list where we have general discussion and give update there. 
guadec-local is for GUADEC planning team every year. My understanding for this list is that it will be a good one for local GUADEC organizing, the members in this list will changed every year.

IMHO, guadec-local may contain two major parts: 
1. Local organizing team in A Coruña
2. GUADEC committee members and previous GUADEC and DS organizers. Below are the people who are interested to join: 
    Brian Cameron - GUADEC committee core members and board member 

    Germán Póo-Caamaño - Board member and travel committee 
    Bob Murphy - GUADEC core committee members 
    Christophe Fergeau - Experienced on paper selection and talk schedules
    BharathAcharya - Work on marketing and managing the travel applications and budgets

    William from Texas - help best as a communications effort working between the website, social
 media, and editors to reach out to our international audience.
    Shaswat Nimesh - Work on Marketing and Website.
    Rodrigo
 Padula - Experienced on events organization/planification (FUDCon, 
FISL, Flisol and many others) Web marketing, community and contributors 
engagement.
    Dave Neary - Previous GUADEC organizer 
    Ekaterina Gerasimova - Desktop Summit 2011 organizor 
    ... Whoever who want to contribute and commit to GUADEC 2011 organizing 
   
If we are all agreed to use guadec-local for GUADEC 2011 organizing team, then we can start to clean and add local team and GUADEC committee members in this list. 

-Emily

As German has already commented it is going to be in Coruña, and we are
going to start moving everything related to GUADEC organization in this
list.

From the local team we expect to propose the organization of bi-weekly
meetings starting in the first half of September, next week we everybody
from our team will be back from Summer Holidays so we expect moving the
most important issues.

The first one would be define the optimal dates for next year GUADEC. In
our proposal GUADEC is in the same week as OSCON 16th-22nd (w29) July so
we need to analyse the impact in local organization that would imply
delaying GUADEC in one week in order to have all the factors to take a
decision of final dates, which would allow us to make the communication
when GUADEC will be held.

Regards,

Chema Casanova
