Revision as of 15:18, 3 October 2013
Present: Evan, John, Dawn, Daman, Brian, Chris, Hans, Emily
1. Sponsorship / Budget
Currently there is approx. $1,600 in the account which includes $1,000 from CAE. With the expected $4,000 from registrations and $1,500 from the Alumni we think that we'll have enough money assuming that our expenses will be similar to last years ($18.5k). The shortfall will be covered from AROSS grant (up to $15k).
- Currently we have 47 people registered. It's quite a big spike from 2 days ago when we had only 16. Possibly it is the effect of distributing 1100 flyers over the last two days.
- Decided to extend the Early Bird registration until Tuesday, Oct. 8 if possible. Registration Form is a potential problem - Action: Daman to inquire Marketing about this
- Evite: Hans finally got it working but learned that Marketing people don't want to send it out (seems that they always did it in the past)
Actions:
- Evan to send Evite to Alumni (agreed to give 2 ticket to them)
- Ralph to send Evite to last years attendees (get the list from Daman)
- Hans to ask the Calendar & News people to include FSOSS info in the next two Seneca News emails
- Yoav sent Evite to several Tech Media outlets
- Cathy suggested that we need to talk personally to Faculty Members and encourage them to promote FSOSS to their students
