So voting rules are one person's vote for one location?

aniqakhokhar renamed this task from Organise Promo Sprint 2024 to Organise Promo Sprint 2023.Jul 25 2023, 11:36 AM

So voting rules are one person's vote for one location?

Er... No? Yes? 3, 2, 1, 3 being favourite and 1 least favourite? That sounds good, no?

I don't know, whatever you folks want

1, 2, 2, 3 my vote

If we want to do high-level planning for Plasma 6 promo, September might be best (if the release is around December), by November we'd be too late for a lot of things

@aronkvh's votes:

  • Budapest: 3
  • Linz: 2
  • Ljubljana: 1

Thanks Aron!

I would say that, for a sprint, a smaller city may be more comfortable and have a better price/quality ratio:

So my votes:

  • Ljubljana 3
  • Szczecin 2
  • Linz 1

Although I do not have a strong preference between the three. They all look lovely.

November 1st half, 1

paulb added a comment.Jul 28 2023, 7:50 AM

September 2nd half: 2
September 1st hald: 1

Location:

  • Berlin 3
  • anything else is not possible for me

Dates:

  • September 23-25 (weekend) 2
  • August 26-27 (weekend) 1
  • November 4-5 (weekend) 1

all other weekends are already taken by other FOSS events

I suggest September 2nd half (2) or October 1st half (1) to have more than enough time after the sprint to do stuff we won't finish there

Yeah... I think we are all agreeing on that. How do you have it to travel to Berlin, @aronkvh ?

There's a direct train from Budapest, but you'll have to write something to let me skip school ;)

Sure thing.

@ognarb Do you have any suggestions for the venue in Berlin?

paulb added a comment.Aug 7 2023, 7:57 AM

It is pretty clear that we will be meeting in Berlin on the 23rd and 24th of September

I would suggest Potsdam
