Why?
We are have been thinking about putting together an in-person event for the first time in a long while. (s. https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Atlassian-User-Groups-articles/RFC-Opening-up-To-meet-how-to-meet-or-not-to-meet-that-is-the/ba-p/1408934#M47 ) after the Senate published their revised COVID-19 rules todayon June 23rd. (https://www.berlin.de/rbmskzl/aktuelles/pressemitteilungen/2020/pressemitteilung.949728.php)
...
Make no mistake: This is not risk free , - and this is your personal risk - but in our fair city the risk looks manageable enough - sticking to few ground rules - to try, because - again - staying at home and avoiding all human contact is not a long-term solution.
...
Contact Tracing: We will need to register all your contact information for contact tracing. Full name, address , OR e-mail and , phone number, time of arrival. No exceptions. As we value your right to privacy, we will provide each one of you with an index card an envelope. Put your information on the card, put it in the envelope and seal it (no licking required
) . If nothing happens, we will destroy the sealed envelopes after a month. On the other hand: Should you develop symptoms and/or test positive for SARS-CoV-2 up to three weeks after our event, please let us know, so that we can inform everybody else and ask them to get themselves tested and self isolate. Only then or in the case that an “official” contact tracer will contact us, will we open the envelopes.
Filling out the card with the correct information is in your and your families best interest and this follows the template in §3 of the Infektionsschutzverordnung from June 23rd mentioned above.We highly recommend installing and activating the “Corona Warn App” on your phone. (https://www.bundesregierung.de/breg-de/themen/corona-warn-app)
Wear a mask over mouth and nose. A mask is not an ideology, it is a sign that you respect everybody’s safety concerns and it doesn’t matter if you personally believe in its efficacy. If you show up without one, we will provide one for you.
Keep a distance. Wave, don’t hug, don’t shake hands and if you do not live in the same household keep a distance of at least 1,5m. We will bring measures to help with that. We will also provide bracelets in different colors, so that you can signal how comfortable or uncomfortable you are with physical contact (inspired by: https://twitter.com/ianbattersby/status/1279739658101014528?s=20) Red = Keeping my Distance, Yellow = Ok to talk to, but no touching, Green: I am comfortable (we still discourage hugs and high fives
) We will have hand sanitizers and wipes to keep shared devices (e.g. microphone) safe and just in case you need them.
Bring you own food and drink. It’s a picnic after all. We will have some emergency bottled water, if you forgot to bring anything, but nothing else.
If you are a member of one of the high-risk groups with pre-existing conditions – you should know by now if you are – stay at home and join us via Zoom.
If you feel sick, stay at home and join us via Zoom. If you are visibly sick and/or coughing and sneezing, we will ask you to stay away. We are not medical personnel and you might assure us, that it is only an allergy, but we have no way to make sure for everyone else.
Please help us to make this happen and keep everybody safe as possible, while we conquer the great outdoors again.
Caveats
Two caveats:
Bad weather - we will not picnic in the rain.
Bad pandemic - we will cancel the event, if there is a surge in infections in August and the rules for meetings change again.
We are looking forward to seeing you again.
Last minute Updates
Hello,
our picnic on Tempelhof Airport will happen tonight. Still time to RSVP and check out the details below. A few last minute updates.
You can participate virtually via Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYqcOqorzorGNOSFz9fYtw8wnZvuFphXrO6
For those of you who will meet us in person, please remember that pandemic rules still apply (s. RSVP) and it is a picnic, so bring your own food and lots of drink. (Beergarden on the airfield are open, we are told, so there is that, we will just have some emergency water.) Because there will be a parallel Zoom meeting, bring a mobile device. May be fun to make this hybrid.
It will be hot (hot!) and there is not a lot of shade. Bring lots of fluids (preferably non-alcoholic, as mentioned we will have some water, but not a lot) and a hat/umbrella would be a good idea. Bring sun screen.
There will be a Tombola (prizes s. here: https://aug-bb.atlassian.net/wiki/x/AYByVw ) but if you want to win something, you have to be there.
Where to find us?
We will "broadcast" our location via Zoom, Twitter (@ACBEBB) and will send out an e-mail to those who RSVPed via Bevy. We will enter through the main entrance at Columbiadamm 124 (https://goo.gl/maps/ckCwpzT1VVVMrP7A7) and will stay in the North Eastern part of the parc towards Neukölln.
Remenber that today is the last day of Formula E racing at Tempelhof Airport so entrances around Platz der Luftbrücke will probably be closed and unfortunately spectators are not allowed Not sure about the schedule (s. here: https://www.fiaformulae.com/ )
So: See you tonight and best regards
Hubert & Joerg
