I guess I could make a post about the various small Kaja improvements that individually seemed a bit small

GWG
I need to RSVP for BAL
#
schmarty
GWG: yeah!
#
GWG
I booked a train ticket
#
GWG
And secured a roommate
#
GWG
And a suite at the Brookshire Suites
#
GWG
Fridge, microwave and couch included
#
schmarty
that's excellent! looking forward to your RSVP ;}
#
GWG
schmarty, if the Indiewebcamp attendance is small enough, they can all fit in the room
#
schmarty
i think the currently advertised venue will be acceptable :}
#
GWG
Schmarty, I was kidding either way
#
GWG
But the sofabed is available if you hear anyone wants to split the bill 3 ways.
#
gRegorLove
What's your ETA at the hotel, GWG? Maybe can list my name so I can check in (if you're ok with that)?
#
GWG
Gregorlove, I get into Penn Station at 9
#
GWG
Not sure how long from there
#
GWG
I will add my name
#
GWG
Do you have AAA?
#
GWG
I got the discount. They always say that they need to see the card
#
GWG
But they never ask
#
gRegorLove
I'll use the Force.
#
gRegorLove
*waves fingers* "You don't need an AAA card"
#
jjuran
Republic credits are generally sufficient
#
GWG
Other than name, what do I need to tell them? I will follow up
#
gRegorLove
GWG: I think that'd be all. They'll just ask for my ID and a credit card for incidentals, which I don't mind.
#
GWG
Okay. Will do that and forward the Confirmation details

GWG: What’s the room rate?
#
GWG
About 107 a night for a suite.
#
GWG
Plus tax
#
GWG
Only if I stay over Sunday would it be less
#
jjuran
The next question is where I’d put my car for the weekend. :-/
#
GWG
Not bad for 2 Queens and a Sofa bed
#
jjuran
I’m considering coming for Sunday only.
#
jjuran
Also, which hotel is this? :-)
#
GWG
Brookshire Suites, I believe
#
GWG
Sounds ritzy

aaronpk: can you check/turn on https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Manual:$wgAllowUserJs? (not sure if I'm doing it wrong or it is off)
#
aaronpk
interesting
#
aaronpk
what's your plan?
#
sknebel
try work on https://github.com/indieweb/wiki/issues/47 (thanks gRegorLove for initial links!), and we'll see what other ideas I get
#
Loqi
[sknebel] #47 do something about viewing times in local time
#
aaronpk
see if it works now
#
sknebel
aaronpk: it does, thanks!
#
GWG
jjuran, not for that weekend
#
jjuran
GWG: Jan 20 checkin, Jan 21 checkout
#
GWG
Interesting.
#
GWG
I had better check again
#
GWG
I have cancellation privileges
#
GWG
You clicked through?
#
GWG
Okay
#
GWG
Will check Either way
#
gRegorLove
GWG: Oh yeah, just realized an important point. My flight is Monday morning, so I'm planning to stay Sunday night. Can you extend it a night? Obviously I'll pay for the extra night.
#
GWG
Gregorlove, gladly.
#
GWG
Will make the arrangements and confirm
#
GWG
Can't now, having my car serviced
#
GWG
But when I head home
