#FOSDEM ers, can anyone help me recall what "SUM UP CERKINFO CI DE" might be? €6.70 EUR. I'm guessing a coffee or something like that!

@jmtd SUM UP are a payment terminal provider, and elsewhere suggested the rest sounds like some of ULB, so I'd guess coffee or perhaps club mate in one of the bars?

@kinnison Yeah perhaps club mate. I think I had one at some point. CERK INFO pointed me at https://cercle-informatique.be/ which is fascinating but possibly irrelevant

@jmtd you passed by https://cercle-informatique.be/ by any chance?

@gargle not on purpose. It looks pretty cool tho! Perhaps they were involved in running some of the drinks stalls on the weekend?

seems I spent €1 EUR with them on a different day too. No idea what on

@jmtd [x] lost receipt

@zhenech definitely, alas, not my only problem: per-diem of 62 EUR for food to contend with as well argh

@jmtd @kinnison "Le cercle participe à l'organisation du FOSDEM" so not so irrelevant. Elsewhere on there, "il s’occupe de toute la logistique liée aux bars, cafés et à la cafétéria pendant le FOSDEM" (they take care of all logistics for bars, cafes and refreshments during FOSDEM) so almost certainly a FOSDEM cafe/bar?

@jmtd luckily no per-diems here

@zhenech enjoy it while it lasts!

@mjr @kinnison thanks for spotting that: yes, that explains it! (I still can't remember what I bought but hey!)

@jmtd @kinnison well, maybe someone was randomly brushing a card reader against people's bags and pockets and assuming that most wouldn't remember what drinks they bought? 😈

@mjr @kinnison the thought crossed my mind, but on balance of probabilities, perhaps not. Unless anyone else has gone public wondering about transactions

@jmtd Seems like a ULB uni thing: https://github.com/Cerkinfo — maybe catering going by https://github.com/Cerkinfo/fosdembar-public ?

@jmtd https://cercle-informatique.be/history shows their involvement with OSDEM/FOSDEM. They were there when it started.
