Hi all.

The committee had our monthly meeting last week. We talked mainly about the forthcoming Drupal Open Days:

-1-

First we continued the conversation from last meeting about reducing the camps to one a year. 100% of comments on https://groups.drupal.org/node/516195 favoured the move, so we have now a final decision made.

We also decided to set a trello board up for anybody wanting to give a hand as an organiser. If you would like to be added to the drupal board and help out organising with us. Please comment https://groups.drupal.org/node/516194 or send an email or direct slack message to anybody in the committee.

-2-

Regarding the date, we are considering either Fri 16th and Sat 17th of June or the previous week, 9th. It will come down to the venue.

-3-

Our preferred venue would be GEC

-4-

We discussed the possibility of charging a minimum fee (we are thinking around 20 euro for a both days ticket) to reduce the no shows and have the camp more professionally organised. If there are other camps taking place during the year they would be free.

-5-

The committee will be meeting for a second time this month, by then we will know the venue (which will lead into a decision on the dates) and will decide on sponsors. The website will go live then too.
