Hello All, We last met at the Deeproot office and took several decisions. Before tomorrow's meeting I hope that we can prepare to review the status of our various efforts.
- With regard to conference bank account-funds are required for day-to-day
conference preparation. 2. Travel and boarding/logding arrangements. 3. Open session with RMS on the 22nd of August. Venue, cost, etc...
Oops open session before conference will be a bad idea. Please check.
- Media coverage- very important!!! But no sign of it in any form of media
except online. 5. Volunteers. 6. Event publicity. 7. Call for paper presentations.
May be it is too late now.
- Sending out invitations. Are the finalised invitations/press notes ready
on the Conference letterhead? 9. We need a contact person for international registrations for visa, etc...
James is doing this.
- Technical aspects-Audio/video streaming, dedicated IRC channel, etc...
- campaign material-posters, handbills, merchandise for sale, etc...
- Sponsors.
- Delegate pack with relevant materials such as transcripts of speakers'
presentations, promotional CD/s, notepads, pen,etc...
Depends on Sponsorship.
- Others/etc...
regards, arun.
