chrisjrn | Best send an e-mail to Clinton Roy | 03:34 |
chrisjrn | what's the occasion? | 03:34 |
chrisjrn | mithro: could you please send the "+1" to the PyCon grant to the linux-aus list? :) | 03:38 |
mithro | chrisjrn, I don't think I have Clinton's preferred email address | 03:38 |
mithro | chrisjrn, yes, will get to that in a minute | 03:38 |
chrisjrn | [email protected] | 03:41 |
mithro | chrisjrn, thanks! | 03:56 |
mithro | chrisjrn, sent the support email | 04:14 |
chrisjrn | thanks a heap! | 04:20 |
chrisjrn | I'm now awaiting the trolls to come and complain at me | 04:20 |
chrisjrn | given it's just us two that are supporting at this point :P | 04:20 |
* Holocaine complains at chrisjrn. | 04:29 | |
* Holocaine has no idea what he's complaining about but, y'know, troll. | 04:29 | |
chrisjrn | Holocaine: http://lists.linux.org.au/pipermail/linux-aus/2013-October/020874.html | 04:31 |
tpb | <http://ln-s.net/:$0Q> (at lists.linux.org.au) | 04:31 |
Holocaine | I dunno, that PyCon US director of sponsorship's a bit dodgy if you ask me. | 04:33 |
chrisjrn | he is, but he also calls some of the shots | 04:33 |
chrisjrn | And I should know, he lives in TEXAS | 04:34 |
Holocaine | Him and his team of Attack Pugs. | 04:34 |
Holocaine | "I'd also like to request additional funds towards hiring someone to smack the EuroPython committee if they try to run on PyCon AU's dates again." | 04:35 |
hawkieowl | fun fact about pycon US | 04:35 |
hawkieowl | with my location, it's just as expensive to get to it than get to pycon au | 04:35 |
hawkieowl | (rural WA, whoo!) | 04:36 |
hawkieowl | least brisbane is better than tassie :P | 04:38 |
chrisjrn | hawkieowl: That's why we run the financial aid scheme -- distance shouldn't be a barrier | 04:38 |
hawkieowl | I may need to look into that when the time comes | 04:38 |
hawkieowl | (for reference: my town -> PER runs at some $400-600 a way for flights) | 04:39 |
Holocaine | If you want to feel thankful for the AEC: http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/map_of_the_week/2013/08/gerrymandering_jigsaw_puzzle_game_put_the_congressional_districts_back_together.html | 04:39 |
tpb | Title: Gerrymandering jigsaw puzzle game: Put the congressional districts back together. (at www.slate.com) | 04:39 |
hawkieowl | naturally plane isn't the only way, but most pick the expense over taking the 3,200km by greyhound :P | 04:40 |
hawkieowl | esp. as if you go by road, you will never get the red sand out of your car/luggage. ever. | 04:42 |

hawkieowl | it's like the earth's natural glitter | 04:43 |
chrisjrn | sounds pretty awesome :P | 04:51 |
hawkieowl | sounds awesome until you open up the caravan | 04:54 |
hawkieowl | and the foldout beds are coated in a fine red dust | 04:54 |
hawkieowl | while you're in bloody Perth | 04:54 |
