## Free Software Melbourne Committee Meeting ##

Present: Ben S, Ben M, Scott, Ben F

## Agenda ##

### 0. Venue ###

Melb Uni made a last-minute offer, but we'll go ahead with Electron Workshop.

### 1. Get a quote on catering ###

* I think providing morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea will give us more time for working.
* Marty from Electron Workshop has suggested Asylum Seeker Resource Centre.

Morning/afternoon tea: Tea and bickies
Lunch:

* Ben M to investigate the catering cost and spread (20 participants and 6 mentors etc.)
* how far ahead to confirm numbers

### 2. Set the entry fee. ###

* Now that we're at Electron Workshop, we don't have any external sponsorship, so our entry fee will need to cover the catering and a small contribution to Electron Workshop to cover upkeep.
* I'd originally hoped to also donate to a free software project, but that may push the price up.

* Assuming fee of: $25.00 gives budget ~ $500.00 (approx $20head)

### 3. Invite and persuade mentors to help out. ###

Possible mentors:

* Henry Walshaw
* Russell Coker
* Tatiana Lenz
* Damien Zammit
* Matthew Cengia (open street maps)
* Ben M (wikipedia)

### 4. Set up registration form on FSM website. ###

* Mezzanine has a built in tool to create forms that export to a spreadsheet.
* Need to add instructions on pre-paying to Ben Finney via cash, bitcoin or [PayPal](PayPal).

* [http://freesoftware.org.au/melbourne/contribute-to-free-software-and-open-source/](http://freesoftware.org.au/melbourne/contribute-to-free-software-and-open-source/)
