ashamsah20:17
helghareeb_and they are asking for ubuntu-eg attendance, support, kind of sessions we give, etc.20:17
ashamsvery good20:17
helghareeb_I asked them to tell me the expected date of the event so we get ready20:18
helghareeb_I believe they are targeting vacation, usually they arrange events in El-Hawar Club ( the same as Open Source Day)20:18
helghareeb_they are thinking about Circles and Discussions20:18
helghareeb_all this is good, right?20:18
ashamsfor sure20:19
helghareeb_alhamdl ALLAH20:19
ashamsmmmm20:19
helghareeb_now, let's move to what... I think we might start working on20:19
ashamssince it's your untiative20:19
ashamsI wold like to ask you to send a msg with this to the ml20:19
ashamsmailinglist*20:19
ashamsso we can announce it to other members in the region20:20
helghareeb_well, let's chit chat here first, then I will mail it20:20
ashamsand see if some persons from cairo want to join20:20
ashamscoooo20:20
ashamscool*20:20
ashamsso, what is the "what"?20:20
helghareeb_actually, they came to me, as they are students in fci, and I teach there, and asked if I can connect them to ubuntu20:20
helghareeb_and they are contacting sponsors20:21
helghareeb_so I thought, we need to meet, to formalize 2 things:20:21
ashamsI'm ready20:21
helghareeb_1 - formal way for any community in egypt to reach ubuntu-eg and ask for support20:21
helghareeb_even if ppl don't know us, we need to have an online form, any community can fill20:21
helghareeb_we have such a think in Mozilla20:22
helghareeb_let me search for it20:22
ashamsvery good point20:22
ashamsme too think so20:22
helghareeb_I will search for it later, will try to include that in the email inchallah20:24
helghareeb_so, I guess this is no. 120:24
helghareeb_so, we identify types of support we can provide, topics we can present, etc. in a more formal way20:24
helghareeb_and the 2nd thing is: we need to identify the way of our prescence and the sponsorship20:24
ashamswooohooo20:25
ashamsyes plz20:25
helghareeb_like, having ubuntu-eg in an event - devmix is requesting sponsorship from companies based on our presence, this is gr8 for them20:25
helghareeb_but for us!!!20:25
helghareeb_we will be there, giving the sessions, yes20:26
helghareeb_they will be there, arranging the event, yes20:26
helghareeb_this is type of win-win event20:26
ashamsyes20:26
helghareeb_however, we need to sit and identify how we will present ubuntu-eg20:26
helghareeb_t-shirts, mugs, pens, etc.20:26
helghareeb_enta fahem qasde? and if they agree to our conditions, that would be ok20:27
helghareeb_if not...20:27
helghareeb_but the thing now, we don't have terms and conditions aslan20:27
ashamsyes we have not20:27
ashamsso any thing is correct20:27
ashamsdon't worry about this20:28
ashamsbut if we're going to sponsor this ourselves20:28
ashamsthis is going to cost a lot20:28
ashamsyou know, a t-shirt is 50 egp20:28
ashamsa mug is ~30-7020:28
ashamsand so20:28
ashamsso what you think?20:29
helghareeb_:) ok, so I will be requesting a proposal from them, and once I receive this, I will post it to the mailing list20:29
helghareeb_I am not sure how much money they have raised in the sponsorship20:29
ashamsproposal of sposorship?20:29
ashamssponsorship*20:29
helghareeb_no, a proposal of the whole day20:29
helghareeb_a proposal to be sent to ubuntu-eg20:29
ashamsyeppers20:29
helghareeb_actually, I don't like the idea of being invited to an event without knowing how it is organized, how much is raised, and other details20:30
helghareeb_I might be over acting, not sure...20:30
helghareeb_but20:30
ashamsyou're not over acting20:30
helghareeb_after different events I have arranged and attended, I need to know where I am pushing the community name into20:30
ashamstrue20:30
ashamsso we need to meet up20:31
helghareeb_Ok, I will divide this into 2 phases: first, once I receive the proposal, I will forward it to the mailing list20:31
helghareeb_and later, inchallah we will raise the standardization issue :)20:31
ashamsI think we'll do it20:31
helghareeb_anytime Ahmed, U know we want to meet just to hang-out :)20:31
ashamscool, sure20:32
helghareeb_ok20:32
ashamsso you want me to come to meet them?20:32
