[Ubuntu-ZW] Zim SFD 2013 Preperations Begin With Immidiate Effect.

[Coley Zephenia]

Thanks Wise for the update. Last year we had less than two months to
prepare and I think beginning now will be the best. We also have enough to
put put down our sponsor list and approach them well in time.This will
ensure that while we make our own contributions we have Key Sponsors to
make this year's events successful. We also can advertise at a more relaxed
pace as well.

Allow me to suggest that we go to our planning documents last year and
start reusing them.
Key things we need to do

   1. Confirm venues
   2. Build up a list of delegates to present
   3. Determine the number of participants we needs
   4. Put up a budget
   5. Draw up detailed plans for the event
      - Programme of the Day
      - Sponsorship/Fund Raising Plan
      - Marketing and Advertising Plan
      - Logistics (Catering, Equipment etc)
      - Comunication Plan with our stakeholders

If we start adding flesh to these points and we have bi-monthly updates by
end of May we will be set to launch our plans.
