There are no RT tickets yet. They would have to be created. 21:46 < xnox> Linuxhiker -> good points. 21:47 < linuxhiker> The thing is folks, that is just my action item list 21:47 < linuxhiker> I know there are others 21:47 < linuxhiker> and there has been very little if any communication 21:48 < zobel> schultmc: have you seen the mail from bgupta re the needed documents for Paypal? 21:48 < bdale> ok, well, sounds like at least some of your questions/requests got handled here 21:48 < schultmc> zobel: not yet - I'll take a look 21:49 < linuxhiker> bdale: sort of... could we get some ETAs? 21:49 < zobel> i have a question regarding the roll-up idea: we had the idea to show more presence during OSS conferences: shall i ask debconf-team wether they are okay with SPI having a roll-up somewhere on DC16? 21:49 < linuxhiker> zobel: +1 21:49 < zobel> they still may say 21:49 < zobel> no. 21:49 < zobel> but will ask 21:49 < schultmc> zobel: i'll get those docs to paypal 21:50 < bdale> linuxhiker: I haven't had anything new from Mishi about the bylaws revision yet, perhaps she'll comment in the reply to tbm's poke yesterday 21:50 < zobel> linuxhiker: do you want to ask here about pgconf.us? 21:51 < zobel> or others: see backlog and -general@ 21:51 < linuxhiker> zobel: sure, PgConf.US is having a community pavilion .
