[19:39] Looks like Debian's founder Ian Murdock passed away last night (or Monday night?) :( [19:40] https://blog.docker.com/2015/12/ian-murdock/ [19:42] * pleia2 nods [19:43] https://bits.debian.org/2015/12/mourning-ian-murdock.html [19:43] :( [21:28] ianorlin: can you get me your SCALE registration number and email address, in an email or PM? https://reg.socallinuxexpo.org/reg6/reg_lookup/ [21:29] pleia2: my registration number this year is 24. Which is better but not as nice as a couple years back when it was 64. :) [21:36] nhaines: are they still doing booth passes even though canonical has their own booth? [23:30] DonkeyHotei: I don't understand the question. [23:31] Everyone at SCALE needs a pass. [23:31] (UbuCon Summit attendance is free and does not require a pass.) [23:31] for example, this past year, there was a conference pack from canonical with a handful of free passes for booth volunteers [23:32] I never heard of it. [23:32] Canonical wasn't at SCALE last year. [23:32] and now they are, so i assumed it would be different [23:32] you always collected unpaid registration numbers to have them covered [23:33] Yes, so that I can cover them with the Ubuntu exhibitor kit. [23:33] Speaking of passes, I haven't seen anything about whether speakers are automatically registered, or should register. [23:33] we have our own booth and canonical has their own booth, we both get passes [23:33] they are next to each other [23:33] akk: It's definitely one of those! [23:33] nhaines: Thanks, that clears it right up! :) [23:34] haha [23:34] 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] It's also why I didn't ask pleia2 for her registration number! [23:34] so, there's still an exhibitor kit for the loco booth despite canonical being next door? [23:34] DonkeyHotei: all exhibitors get an exhibitor kit. [23:35] I haven't registered yet [23:35] oh, sorry, i thought it was a canonical thing [23:35] no comp for me since I'm not speaking at actual scale, just events before it [23:35] pleia2: UbuCon counts, last I heard. [23:36] nhaines: I never got a speaker registration code or whatever [23:36] pleia2: I'll ask Gareth what's up. [23:36] DonkeyHotei: even if for some reason Canonical were handling registrations, I would still be collecting registrations for the LoCo on behalf of Canonical. [23:38] But in actuality, it's much more likely that I'll be organizing both booths as a single booth. [23:38] Although Canonical's plans are so similar to mine that it comes down to more of a technicality than any practical difference. [23:39] i'm still considering not going [23:40] Why not? [23:41] 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 [23:55] Tell them "you can tell if someone is guilty by looking at them." [23:56] Ha, that would probably work. [23:57] But telling them you're a computer engineer (or scientist, or anything else technical) is usually enough. [23:58] "I'm an expert in Internet law." [23:58] Ooh, anything smelling of lawyer is even better.
