| pleia2 | :( | 19:43 |
| nhaines | ianorlin: can you get me your SCALE registration number and email address, in an email or PM? https://reg.socallinuxexpo.org/reg6/reg_lookup/ | 21:28 |
| nhaines | pleia2: my registration number this year is 24. Which is better but not as nice as a couple years back when it was 64. :) | 21:29 |
| DonkeyHotei | nhaines: are they still doing booth passes even though canonical has their own booth? | 21:36 |
| nhaines | DonkeyHotei: I don't understand the question. | 23:30 |
| nhaines | Everyone at SCALE needs a pass. | 23:31 |
| nhaines | (UbuCon Summit attendance is free and does not require a pass.) | 23:31 |
| DonkeyHotei | for example, this past year, there was a conference pack from canonical with a handful of free passes for booth volunteers | 23:31 |
| nhaines | I never heard of it. | 23:32 |
| nhaines | Canonical wasn't at SCALE last year. | 23:32 |
| DonkeyHotei | and now they are, so i assumed it would be different | 23:32 |
| DonkeyHotei | you always collected unpaid registration numbers to have them covered | 23:32 |
| nhaines | Yes, so that I can cover them with the Ubuntu exhibitor kit. | 23:33 |
| akk | Speaking of passes, I haven't seen anything about whether speakers are automatically registered, or should register. | 23:33 |
| pleia2 | we have our own booth and canonical has their own booth, we both get passes | 23:33 |
| pleia2 | they are next to each other | 23:33 |
| nhaines | akk: It's definitely one of those! | 23:33 |
| akk | nhaines: Thanks, that clears it right up! :) | 23:33 |
| pleia2 | haha | 23:34 |
| nhaines | I'll probably just ask Gareth next Wednesday when we talk, because I realized I didn't know whether to comp my registration because I'm a speaker. | 23:34 |
| nhaines | It's also why I didn't ask pleia2 for her registration number! | 23:34 |
| DonkeyHotei | so, there's still an exhibitor kit for the loco booth despite canonical being next door? | 23:34 |
| nhaines | DonkeyHotei: all exhibitors get an exhibitor kit. | 23:34 |
| pleia2 | I haven't registered yet | 23:35 |
| DonkeyHotei | oh, sorry, i thought it was a canonical thing | 23:35 |
| pleia2 | no comp for me since I'm not speaking at actual scale, just events before it | 23:35 |
| nhaines | pleia2: UbuCon counts, last I heard. | 23:35 |
| pleia2 | nhaines: I never got a speaker registration code or whatever | 23:36 |
| nhaines | pleia2: I'll ask Gareth what's up. | 23:36 |
| nhaines | DonkeyHotei: even if for some reason Canonical were handling registrations, I would still be collecting registrations for the LoCo on behalf of Canonical. | 23:36 |
| nhaines | But in actuality, it's much more likely that I'll be organizing both booths as a single booth. | 23:38 |
| nhaines | Although Canonical's plans are so similar to mine that it comes down to more of a technicality than any practical difference. | 23:38 |
| DonkeyHotei | i'm still considering not going | 23:39 |
| nhaines | Why not? | 23:40 |
| DonkeyHotei | it still depends on a lot of things that are yet to be determined, plus i have a jury summons for the week of the 25th | 23:41 |
| MarkDude | Tell them "you can tell if someone is guilty by looking at them." | 23:55 |
| akk | Ha, that would probably work. | 23:56 |
| akk | But telling them you're a computer engineer (or scientist, or anything else technical) is usually enough. | 23:57 |
| nhaines | "I'm an expert in Internet law." | 23:58 |
| akk | Ooh, anything smelling of lawyer is even better. | 23:58 |
