08:16.30FresoWho all here are in Münich for the summit right now?
08:16.33Fresoraises hand
08:21.03PulkoMandyI'm not, this year, other people from the project are going :)
08:22.50kaiOh, oh, oh, me!
08:24.02kaiAhrg, none of the solutions just shown were correct to loop through that list
08:25.24Ivanovicoh, the summit is now happening in Munich?
08:25.40Ivanovicwow, I seem to be getting old, back in my days it was always in mountain view
08:25.41Ivanovic:)
08:26.40Fresokai: We talked (very briefly) yesterday, I think. :)
08:27.13FresoIvanovic: It’s the first time it’s outside the SF/Bay Area area!
08:27.25Ivanovicahhh, okay
08:28.23Ivanovica shame that I am basically inactive with Wesnoth for some time already and not pushing for a gsoc participation
08:28.34Ivanovicwould have been a nice and easy drive over
08:29.10FresoI hope it’s a recurring thing (though I likely won’t be going next year regardless).
08:29.30Ivanovicmaybe rotate through the bigger google offices worldwide?
08:29.32Ivanovic:)
08:29.41FresoOoh. I’d love to go to Dublin!!
08:29.47Freso(Again. :p)
08:30.58Ivanovicwhat about Tokyo, Singapore or Sydney?
08:31.20PulkoMandyit's possibly related to difficulties for a lot of mentors to get visa for the US, and EU seems easier for that
08:31.40Ivanovicthat is a cool reasoning!
08:31.59FresoI feel like it might be easier for USians to get into the EU too, than the other way around.
08:32.02Ivanovicand yeah, Europe is rather welcoming, but can still be some effort for various countries
08:32.31Ivanovicfor EU to US is rather simple but you still have to do the online form and pay for it every 2nd year
08:32.56Ivanovicbut I guess for people from non visa waiver countries the US really sucks to get into
08:33.00Freso(I mean, getting the ESTA is dead easy and mostly automated and fairly cheap… but I still need to get interrogated by a US immigrations officer at the airport before getting on the flight to the US, and then again by another officer once I’ve landed and am on US soil.)
08:33.28IvanovicFreso: no, you are not interrogated by us immigrations officer before boarding
08:33.36FresoIvanovic: I was last year.
08:33.42Ivanovicthere is actually no "real" interrogation at most airports
08:33.53Ivanoviconly if you are unlucky and they already have a checkpoint there
08:33.56PulkoMandyit's not systematic but it happens
08:34.00Ivanovicwhich for example in germany is not the case
08:34.12FresoIvanovic: I guess that’s what happened last year in Zürich then.
08:34.20Ivanovicthere it is the usual stuff like the gate agent asking if you packed the bag yourself
08:34.29FresoIt was not a gate agent.
08:34.42PulkoMandyZurich is not in the EU, to be fair :)
08:34.44FresoIt was an official US some-agency officer/agent.
08:34.53Ivanovicinteresting
08:35.11Ivanovicand PulkoMandy is correct, though once you are in one of the two you can easily get around thanks to schengen
08:36.35FresoAnd they were asking me stuff like what I was going to do in the US, how long I was going to stay, who and how paid the flight and the stay, what my relationship was with Google, with my org., etc.
08:36.46FresoDefinitely not just "did you pack your bag yourself".
08:37.09Ivanovicooookay, that is very american
08:37.33Freso"Interrogation" may not be the correct legal term for what I went through, but it definitely felt like I was being interrogated. :)
08:37.41Ivanovichonestly, I do love the canadian border agents though, they can be very cool :)
08:38.08Ivanovicokay, the best things I had at a US border once
08:38.26*** join/#gsoc DJWillis (~djwillis@cpc123798-trow7-2-0-cust28.18-1.cable.virginm.net)
08:38.30IvanovicI was in a car as designated driver during the weekend on a business trip with three polish colleagues with me in the car
08:39.08Ivanovicso I collected the passports and handed them to the US border agent, his only question was: "what? 1 german and 3 polish passports?! are you guys friends now?"
08:39.18Ivanovicjust hillarious...
08:47.52Freso:)
