#[tantek]Hey if anyone else has been hanging onto photos from IndieWeb Summit, don't be worried about posting them "too late" β just upload them! π
#[tantek]I filtered through my photos (didn't take that many) and picked "faves" to post. Mostly cropped them, and now uploading one by one, sometimes recropping
#[tantek]and with that, I've uploaded the few decent photos I took at IWS, and embedded / linked to them from /2019/Preparty and /2019/Photos sections accordingly! Check them out
#aaronpkexcellent, got a hacky version of profile photos working
#[tantek]and I think I have ~90% of the text written for my first actual blog post about IWS 2019 (which is only about the very start / welcoming π)
#[schmarty]!tell jgmac1106 still meeting w/ Pace folks re: IWC NYC 2019 today? please let us know how it goes!
#[jgmac1106]schmarty 2:30pm β 3:30pm (EDT) should I hold off on confirming until we hear from Glitch or go with a date if offered?
#Loqi[jgmac1106]: [schmarty] left you a message 15 minutes ago: still meeting w/ Pace folks re: IWC NYC 2019 today? please let us know how it goes!
#[schmarty]jgmac1106 Glitch is still a big maybe as they are working on their own events strategy, so I say go for it if Pace can host. please make sure to ask about ways to mitigate our issues last time like security turning people away, closing too early on Saturday, etc.
#Loqi[tantek]: jgmac1106 left you a message 19 minutes ago: I see you eleveted Berlin2 to a Save the Date should I assume you are a -1 for Nov 9-10th now for NYC?
#[tantek][jgmac1106] I haven't followed up with Yulia on that recently β assume that IWC NYC takes precedence in case of any conflict
#[tantek]I remember now, I think we put that down as a Save the date when we found out that Beyond Tellerand Berlin was the following W-F

#[tantek][jgmac1106] https://indieweb.org/Planning#NYC is still accurate for my preferences. I'd rather have IWC NYC happen if that's the last possible date. Did none of the September or October dates work for your IWC NYC venue(s)?
#[schmarty]tantek: i believe he is talking with Pace about those right now.
#[schmarty]tho i was also surprised to see Nov talk.
#tantek.comedited /Planning (+168) "/* Save Dates */ note Berlin2 is more of a "one workable date" rather than other save the dates" (view diff)
#[Rose]Are the summit dates for next year pretty definite?
#Loqi[Rose]: sknebel left you a message 4 days, 3 hours ago: the date after that (08-19) I can't reliably host vHWC EU, so someone else would have to do that (I'll be at CCCamp buildup, and if the field will have power or internet at that point is not guaranteed)
#aaronpkyes, venue is already reserved and everything too

#jgmac1106tantek, schmarty, gwg @tmiller Pace is a go, they are fine with any of the dates in Sept or Oct. Melanie is just running the dates by the Dean
#Loqijgmac1106: [schmarty] left you a message 1 hour, 12 minutes ago: if Pace can't do anything before Nov let's wait and see what Glitch says later this week!

#[Rose]I have almost a year's notice. I'll get you across the pond.
#[Rose]The conference I spoke at this last weekend had a speaker wrangler, he was the one who chased us around with mics, bottles of water, and pleas to check our equipment worked with the projector, rather applicable to IWC/S, don't you think?
#[tantek]yes that would be a good Volunteer Role to add for future IWS
#ZegnatI thought everyone was a speaker wrangler at IWC? :P
#[tantek]since we don't do many (more than one?) pre-planned speakers for IWCs it's usually not an issue
#[Rose]It's like when there's a medical emergency, pick a specific person to handle things like that and then it will actually get done.
#[tantek]no Zegnat, at IWS I was definitely wrangling speakers π fortunately we were working with some great responsible folks so it made it possible to do as an add-on responsibility rather than a specific person for that role
#[tantek]Rose, "pick a specific person to handle things like that" only works when you have a tons of funds or endless stream of reliable people you can depend on to delegate to
#[tantek]We did a little of that at IWS for day 2 sessions which we (organizers) had not fully planned out and had to wing a bit
#[Rose]But if we have volunteer roles then having one of them be "presentation wrangler" for events could be useful.
#ZegnatSpeaking of getting things done, I need to get on to my boss tomorrow and see if I can actually do MozFest, and if so, send in an indieweb session proposal (if noone has done so yet)
#LoqiMozFest is an annual conference organized by Mozilla in London England focused on open source and open standards efforts to help grow a more open and inclusive internet https://indieweb.org/MozFest
#ZegnatI was working on a blog post about webmentions, and kinda spinning it into a proposal simultaneously.
#ZegnatWill see if I manage to turn it into a good text tomorrow, will drop it on the wiki then too.
#[Rose]I need to book travel for Brighton, and also sleep. Not at the same time

#[KevinMarks]What are the extra xoxo days? I need to book my flights and may go via local airport and AMS rather than Heathrow this time.
#LoqiIt looks like we don't have a page for "extra xoxo days" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "extra xoxo days is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#[KevinMarks]By the time I get to London on the train and then to Heathrow it's cost me more than I save on the flight.
#[tantek]KevinMarks we have HWC PDX on 2019-09-04 if you're looking for a start date to aim for (get in early enough to make it into town!)
