bad mic in 104
by der.hans 05 Mar '17

05 Mar '17

moin moin, 3rd from the left mic on the panel in room 104 ( Open Data ) is having some problems. It fades in and out and noise spikes a little. This is probably the only time it'll be used, but if it's ours it would be good to do some testing before packing it up. ciao, der.hans -- # http://www.LuftHans.com/ http://www.PhxLinux.org/ # Strangers are friends just waiting to happen!

rooms 103 and 104 sound bleedover
by der.hans 03 Mar '17

03 Mar '17

moin moin, sound from room 104 can overwhelm the speakers in room 103. Some of that is due to going from quiet speakers to loud speakers. Not much to do about that. The wall between the rooms wasn't closed properly. I fixed it some, but there's still a gap, so it would be nice if we can try to reset the wall tonight after the talks. Tom says the speakers in 104 are quieter in the front than they are in the back, which is right next to 103. Can we balance the speakers differently or at least reduce the difference? ciao, der.hans -- # http://www.LuftHans.com/ http://www.PhxLinux.org/ # Freedom isn't everything, but without freedom you have nothing. - der.hans

Do we have a way to print materials for SCALE or should I run to FedEx tomorrow?

AV tonight
by der.hans 02 Mar '17

02 Mar '17

moin moin, we have user groups meeting in Ballrooms A and C tonight between 19:00 and 21:00. Both have requested AV as they have presentations as part of their group meeting. Are we set for those rooms? Including Linux Sucks and Open Source is Awesome in DE, that gives us 3 rooms w/ AV tonight. I believe tonight is the only night when BoF-like activities will be using AV. ciao, der.hans -- # http://www.LuftHans.com/ http://www.PhxLinux.org/ # Stell dir vor, es ist Krieg und keiner geht hin...

Kudos...

Thanks to everyone who put this scale together. Registration and signage was painless and excellent, there were good sliders nearby, and there was even a place to plug in my EV in the parking garage :-) In fact, this is the best registration experience I've ever had. Networking held up reasonably well. Worse problem I saw was 30 seconds to connect to public-slow in ballroom GH. The only real problem I experienced was the awful audio problems in ballroom GH. Thankfully it was intermittent, but at times, it made me want to run away. Looking forward to day 2! - Dan

SCaLE CryptoParty Revisited
by Caryl Bigenho 02 Mar '17

02 Mar '17

Hi… I’d like to re-visit the possibility of having a CryptoParty BoF at SCaLE. If we avoid the times of all the big evening events, including the Key Signing party, I really can’t find an evening time slot that would work. I did put in for one in the evening. Someone suggested it should be 2 hours. So, I put in for one… but there really wasn’t any good time. We have to allow time for folks to eat dinner and get to wherever the events are. Nothing left for BoFs that I can see. So, I have one idea… how about Saturday and/or Sunday morning from 8 am to 9:45 am? It isn’t quite 2 hours and folks would have to eat before coming. But it could possibly work. There are a lot of areas of Cyber-security we could deal with, but this would be for the “ordinary folk,” like me, who don’t deal with large corporate files and important business transactions and things like that. We would just like to keep our personal cell phones relatively secure and our internet browsing private as much as possible. That is probably all we could cover in an hour and a half or so anyway. If we did it on Sunday morning it could even be announced on Saturday evening at the UpScale gathering. If we concentrated on cell phone and browsing only. I can probably get some people who are using Signal to help do something on that. I just installed Badger on Chrome but I’m not sure how much that does for me yet. Der Hans, are you still interested in helping organize this? Anyone else want to contribute ideas/skills? Can we get a room to do it in the AM? Can it be near the Keynote (and a restroom) so people who don’t want to miss that will have time to get there? Caryl P.S. Maybe if it goes well we could get it sponsored next year with a continental breakfast or something like that.

parent friendly info might include: - list of game night attractions with kid appeal. - names of useful places for google searches, like nearest playground, public day care, grocery, drug store, pizza parlor, ice cream parlor, children's museum, toy store, box store (wal-mart/costco/target?), teacher's supply, emergency room. ...lori On Feb 28, 2017 01:00, "Lei Zhang" <leiz(a)socallinuxexpo.org> wrote: Lori, can you be specific about what you have in mind for "parent-friendly" information?
