Preconference meetups?

Are preconference slots and locations available? Bluerasberry (talk) 18:36, 29 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hello Bluerasberry. The Primary school will be used for hackathon, but Bar restaurant 58, restaurant Oasi, and Bar restaurant Montanina are available. Benoit Rochon (talk) 15:48, 12 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Wednesday and Thursday

All rooms of the school are used on Wednesday and Thursday for the hackathon and they are not available for meetups. Not in the morning nor in the evening. --iopensa (talk) 07:48, 13 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

It's sad... iopensa, is there a place somewhere else on the 23rd for the Meetups/Wikisource ? Someone should update the pages Meetups, Programme and Hackathon/Program (right now, it's unclear and it seems the usual time slots for meetups are available... I'm easily confused but I'm probably not the only one). Cdlt, VIGNERON (talk) 13:45, 13 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
VIGNERON, you can have meetups between 10.30 and 11.30 and between 15.00-17.30 in the bars (these are the best times so we do not disturb the preparation of lunches and dinners. Are these times suitable? --iopensa (talk) 14:00, 13 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
iopensa, if I understand correctly, bars are not available for meetups from 18.00-19.00 ? Benoit Rochon (talk) 19:07, 16 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
I put first of all the available rooms. then the time for restaurants (Oasi, 58 and Montanina are also restaurants) which do not disturb the preparation of the dinners. It is not that we can not organize meetups between 18 and 19 (we are reserving 2 table for meetups between 18 and 19, but if possible start with the available rooms first. --iopensa (talk) 23:23, 17 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Incosistent times and my slot conflict

In a message to Beonit Rochon, I pointed out that Meetups/Cities and regional wiki-groups meetup has different times listed on the page itself and in the meetup schedule; and that I could not attend both this meetup and the Meetups/Wikipedians in residence, although I am closely involved in both and have for long signed up for both – so I would very much prefer them not to overlap in time. If possible, avoiding conflict with Meetups/Esperanto would also be helpful. I hope that Benoit (or someone else in charge) will response to my question and that it will be possible to adapt the schedule accordingly. Regards, --Blahma (talk) 23:49, 15 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hello Blahma, if I move Wikipedians in residence at 18.00 same room, would that be good for you ? Benoit Rochon (talk) 19:04, 16 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Hello Benoit Rochon, thanks for considering my request. I have inspected the programme and concluded that moving Wikipedians in residence to Friday or Sunday morning (9:00–10:00, not later) would work best for me, if you could get a place for those few anticipated attendants at some of those times. As I happen to be also a Hackathon participant, I would need to sacrifice the Hackathon showcase on Saturday evening if you moved Wikipedians in residence to that time; however, go for it if my other suggestions do not work, as I am first a Wikipedian in residence and only then a MediaWiki developer. And please fix the date discrepancy between the time of Cities and regional wiki-groups meetup in its page and in the program overview – or tell me that I can fix it. Thank you! --Blahma (talk) 22:19, 16 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
It's hard to satisfied every demand, especially if you have 3 meetups overlaping. As you can see I have no slots left in the mornings you ask. And worst I think I can't use bars for meetups.
I'll be in Italie Tuesday, I will figure something out. Because coordinating this from Montreal, it's a puzzle. Thanks for understanding. Benoit Rochon (talk) 23:01, 17 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Thank you, have a safe trip and let's hope we will arrive at a solution soon. From the point of promoting the meetup, I think it is better to have a bad fixed schedule soon than a perfect schedule at the last moment. I would like to promote the Wikipedians in Residence meetup in the mailing list, but need to wait to have final date and time. Hopefully this will be possible in Tuesday, still some two days ahead of the actual meetup. In the meantime, I fixed the regional groups page to reflect what is in the main schedule. --Blahma (talk) 18:21, 18 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

GLAM meetup

Salut Benoit,

lovely idea!! The GLAM people would love to meet up Saturday evening in one of the bars. Please let us have the most GLAMorous of them all. The topic would be "GLAM coordinators meeting" as follow up to Paris group, Wikimedia conference 2016 and ..

Do you need more info or would it do so?

Will you book the room? Did I get that right?

best regards --Barbara Fischer (WMDE) (talk) 20:30, 16 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Endorsed! Romaine (talk) 05:40, 17 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hello Barbara, I think I cannot book bars for meetups, look Iopensa message above, I think I will need remove some from the bars I booked ealier. I have room 50 that will be open 24h, is this working for you ? Benoit Rochon (talk) 23:08, 17 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
room 10 is open 24/24. --iopensa (talk) 23:18, 17 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
we take what room is available. Thanks--Barbara Fischer (WMDE) (talk) 14:33, 21 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
despite I cannot edit the front page. I have confirmed with Benoit that we can meet at 6pm at bar oasis. the terrasse should be large enough to host both the GLAM meet up and the other one. :) See you there!--Barbara Fischer (WMDE) (talk) 12:01, 24 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
Done ! Benoit Rochon (talk) 13:24, 24 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
