Kenny C is at a family function tonight and he will update the meet.ko link tomorrow

I believe this has morphed into text testimonials shared on social media

Lydia to plan with Aleix and Nate

Fireside room: https://meet.kde.org/b/all-whh-oty

Do we have an update here? Do we have this text on the KDE site?

Link to register on indico: https://conf.kde.org/e/KDE25th

Aleix & board - Oct. 14th 17UTC
Jeri Ellsworth - Oct. 15th 18UTC

Are there any updates here?

https://www.figma.com/file/d571cc9jXx8lC3RZhd7gMj/kde-25?node-id=1%3A2

I have very very very ealry draft for a page I'd like to see/someone not familiar with KDE.

( this is with absolute disregard to consistency with other pages; which I don't think is a big problem for a custom/event page, and these of c. these are just some very early ideas)

Looking for an update here and apologies for moving it to "Done" was trying to move it to "Doing"

Current Locations:

Coordinating Fireside chats. One with Matthias & one with Jeri Ellsworth

Are there any updates here?

Sprint happening Sept. 11-12; will have updates afterwards

Have we heard from Skylar (not sure about the name; same person who compiled the Akademy 2020 welcome video) about compiling the videos together? We should start this soon so we have 1+ month to get it done.

Hi KDE!

Do you focus on popular KDE contributors, or may I also upload my personal greetings?

Also I use KDEnlive quite often for experimental editing and recommend it at every occasion, I could produce a video cut proposal as soon as footage is available if you like. My video quality limit is 1080p for computational reasons. One additional idea I have is to compose a happy birthday background track consisting of old and new KDE sounds, I could give it a try at least.

I also wouldn't mind to step up as a fanboy and reach out to Mr. Torvalds, NASA and CERN (because yet nobody did right?) but I am afraid I will just reach their spam filter...

Best wishes

Dominik

pushing request to sysadmin for website address 25years.kde.org to be laid out same as kde.org & akademy.kde

@kcoyle I think that we have a quarterly newsletter? Probably @allyson can answer better than me

I would like to add one bullet point to the "what we care about": Reconnect to people who have worked in the KDE community in the past and recognize past contributions.

The birthday might be a good opportunity to dig up some of the stories about what happened in KDE over time and maybe resurface some of the contributors who shaped KDE in the past but aren't active today anymore.

@bdhruve I think this is a great idea! Let's start working on it.

I still have no word from ASU. I got an initial response and had a meeting scheduled to talk but between COVID and now protests it was postponed and yet to be rescheduled.

Not sure why the items were ticked as they can't have been done yet, so I've corrected that

Email me the list at adam.szopa@kde.org after you narrow it down to your liking please :)

As you can see in the current version, you can submit the answer even if you rank only 1 item, so we can be as flexible here as we want.

A simple skeleton of the survey: https://survey.kde.org/327193?lang=en

Should all the question be visible at once? Might be good to divide into pages, if the ranked question grows to large with proper selections.

This doesn't seem like a promo activity rather than akademy team/talks?

I assume this task is about the sponsorship brochure? Sponsors outreach is usually done or at least coordinated by the board.

We can increase diversity by making one or both of the key note speakers female. This can encourage more female attendance from the KDE Community.

I think we need to come up with a version of the blurb for this year for future stuff

I think it somehow needs to include info about "normal" Akademys for context?
