• Fundraising:
  • (gismo) decide on sponsor levels/currency/discounts, see 87zk4oidry.fsf@gismo.pca.it
    • (gismo) offer early payment discount (e.g. 2% or 5%) to help pay Le Camp and other early expenses?
    • (gismo) given the RMLL/LSM feedback about lack of in-country sponsorship, should EUR be used instead of CHF? Would make sponsors more comfortable?
    • (hug) can include a definite statement about VAT status? especially for foreign sponsors CAEwy9bg+tyGbk66r1HL_F7-Zpiakom1OEEgC+taHsKi_C3AStQ@mail.gmail.com or is this subject to some formal recognition as a non-profit event?
    • (holger) imagine DebConf13 with only 100k CHF budget: what would we do?
  • (pocock) not sponsorship related: can a non-Debian event take place at Le Camp during the DebCamp week, to distribute the cost burden more widely? Le Camp's minimum 4880 CHF/night threshold may not be met otherwise. 502B9B48.30605@pocock.com.au
• (heiserhorn) Le camp contract
  • Status update
  • Are there any additional points that have to be adressed from the global team perspective, apart from DebConf13/Meetings/20120905#Contract_with_Le_Camp
• BSP at Le Camp: decide about the date: from [1] 27./28.10. seems most likly
• Varia
  • Website: status
  • Volunteering: find a primary contact to get information from RMLL/LSM's organizers
  • Monthly cashflow forecast:
    • spreadsheet, when are outgoing payments due, month by month total payable up to August 2013?
    • How much promised so far? Anticipated payment dates known? On target for Le Camp and other critical instalment deadlines?
