jgmac1106 @schmarty thx for volunteering! Will no more about venue dates by Tuesday. If you are at MIT am halfway between Boston and NYC. Can figure something out
#
jgmac1106 prior weekend works for [gwg] but will come down to venues,
#
schmarty[m] jgmac1106: no problem! I've helped out with the last one or two IWC NYC, figured i'd keep the streak going.
#
schmarty[m] i can probably fly down from Boston Thursday night or Friday morning, or nap on the train. :}
#
schmarty[m] if I can't make the beginning of the first day i can at least help with things like food
#
jgmac1106 Yeah Boston to DC, Amtrak only for me
#
jgmac1106 Didn’t know about the Open Hardware, will look into that as well. I forget her name but the person who found the last few venues is starting at Harvard and wants to get IWC going in Cambridge again edventually
#
schmarty[m] emmahodge? she was the venue coordinator for the last few IWCNYC
#
jgmac1106 Yes. That’s it. She is starting her MBA at Harvard and wants to reach back when settled
#
GWG I would go to Boston

#
jgmac1106 [gwg] I was looking at the calendar for that. Have friends at MIT who want to get involved and [schmarty] if you and [jgarber] want to DC I have a few leads on venues, but probably be spring for those, let’s just pull off NYC, then the rest of the seaboard
#
schmarty[m] jgmac1106: agreed that focus on one city at a time is best!
#
schmarty[m] i am happy to start spinning up the engines for another IWC Baltimore or co-organize an IWC DC if jgarber wants to start up the engine
#
GWG jgmac1106: I welcome the chance to go up and down the eastern seaboard
#
schmarty[m] woah, IWC Oxford was added to the wiki at /2018/Oxford but is not on /Events

#
[jgmac1106] @gwg [schmarty] what if we did do an IndieWeb Train next year? Start in Bmore go to Beantown, Pop uo HWC in a few cities along the way . Then, then.l, we get the band back together.
#
GWG That would be fun.
#
GWG Explain the band part?

#
schmarty[m] i was a brief part of a Baltimore-to-Boston hackers-on-a-train type thing. I got off in NYC. i don't even remember what the event was about 😂
#
schmarty[m] aaronpk: hmm. /this-week section for IndieNews this week caught a bunch of old posts from notiz.blog. Also, while IndieNews itself is separated into language, the IndieNews section on /this-week just mushes them all together. it's a little confusing.
#
gRegorLove schmarty[m]: Yeah, their domain changed and re-sent webmentions :/
#
schmarty[m] i vaguely recall that. kind of fogs up that section in the newsletter this week.
#
gRegorLove Time warp segment on the podcast? :)
#
schmarty[m] i'm just assuming that past me would have already covered them in a timeline where TWITIWAE already existed.

petermolnar IWC Berlin is completely certain to happen at that time, right?

tantek__ petermolnar: yes. I have booked the rooms at Mozilla Berlin
#
tantek__ I just need to book my flights :)

#
jgmac1106 !tell aaronpk @kathiiberens (Twitter) is a professor at Portland State University starting to IndieWeb, could be in to securing Summit venue early enough for visas an travel vouchers
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
petermolnar it seems like I can do Fri-Sun for Berlin
#
petermolnar funds, leave, all arranged, except flight, but even that I'll sort out soon

#
jgmac1106 amazing @petermolnar I am trying to get the travel approved. Never been on the main continent. Just England
#
petermolnar well, I've never been to the US :)
#
petermolnar Europe will most probably be gloomy at the beginning of Nov though, so don't expect much
#
petermolnar I haven't been at an IWC since 2016 Brighton
#
petermolnar in person
#
jgmac1106 yeah we talked about it at /leaders it is hard to get the visa and travel assistance sorted for Summit without months in advace….It is hard finding free space months in advance, but hopefully we meet in Berlin
#
jgmac1106 I think part of the reason never spent time in EU, is this place so big, I would often just hop in a car or stick out my thumb and drive all over US when I was younger, couple months ago, did ta trip to Vegas to help an artist friend. That was 40 hours of straight driving

#
jgmac1106 yeah when friends visit from EU and they are in Wasington DC or further south always suprised folks think nothing of a 5-6 hour drive to go see a friend. I love road trips

jgmac1106 [gwg] [schmarty] Pace U is a go(ish), will give me finalized dates after checking their facilities (classes still being added, canceled etc)
#
schmarty[m] jgmac1106++ thanks for all the organizing legwork!!

#
schmarty[m] is the "ish" in reference to "they're not sure about dates"? or are there other pending issues?
#
jgmac1106 the ish is classes still being canceled, and they do not have security on campus on Sunday, we can either dur R-Sat which screws you, or move campus on Sunday (block away) but she is meeting with facilities tomorrow
#
jgmac1106 I am also meeting with NY Public Library tomorrow so see what space they have to offer
#
jgmac1106 I prefer later in September just bc I know the earlier in Sept the more a shitshow campuses can be, plus time to beg for sponsorship and stuff, but if more +1 14-16 we can look at that. Works better for [gwg] as he has to travel on Sunday for religous holiday
#
jgmac1106 but Melanie, who I spoke to, said her Dean really wants to bring IWC to their computer science campus so I went with go(ish)
#
jgmac1106 I may just do a teaser post on my page to see who is interested for a count. I know signups are deliberatley difficult but it would be nice to gauge interest without requiring folks to figure out how to join wiiki
#
schmarty[m] jgmac1106: most IWCs get a webpage of their own (e.g. 2018.indieweb.org/Baltimore) and folks are able to register with ti.to if they don't want to RSVP from their own website)
#
sknebel right, we don't do the wiki RSVP requirement anymore
#
jgmac1106 sorry but high bar…..https://indieweb.org/IndieWebCamps#How_to_organize#faq
#
jgmac1106 thx schmarty your [m] is back
#
sknebel jgmac1106: that's outdated
#
jgmac1106 thx for heads up sknebel I am trying to take super detailed notes on NYC planning to rewrite the IndieWebCampKit
#
sknebel current thinking is: provide external RSVP option, encourage people to indie-rsvp and/or to add themselves to the guest list
