Re: [Orgmode] Orgmode meetup at FOSDEM, February 2011. Who would come?

2010-10-04 Thread Carsten Dominik

Hi Richard,

tanks for starting this, it looks pretty good.

Still we need someone who says I will organize this.
Who will do that?

Most importantly, we need to know if any money is
involved, including registration fees.

The Org-mode devroom will include a collection of talks from its

Org-mode.  In addition, the group will discuss the direction of
Org-mode, identify additional tools that would be useful to surround
Org-mode, as well as make a plan for widening its audience and making
it more accessible to new users.

Some of our proposed talks include:
- Org-babel
- GTD with Org-mode
- Sceintific applications
- Sharing Org-mode data with other applications (TaskJuggler, ..?)
- Org-mode on the iPhone, Android and Nokia devices
- Managing websites with Org-mode (jekyll integration, built-in  
publishing, etc)

- Power user demonstrations/tip sharing
- The future of Org-mode

Goals:
- Expose new and existing Org-mode users to demonstrations/application
of features they might not have otherwise discovered
- Identify new applications of Org-mode, help users get started
using/customizing Org-mode for their domain
- Collect members from the Org-mode mailing list in a single place for
the first time
- Share and refine the direction of Org-mode
- Identify how contributors can help with Org-mode
development/documentation/etc.

I'm not sure what 'target projects' could mean in their suggestion for

Hope this helps as a start, feel free to scrap it and start over if

I also think we should add a section in the 'Comments' field of the
form that says why we think Org-mode should get a devroom (or at least
a portion of one).  It may be helpful to identify approximately how
many users are on the mailing list, downloads/month, as well as note
that it is included in Emacs so there may be many more.  Whoever fills
out the form on the website should probably get this information from
Carsten before submitting.

 Still we need someone who says I will organize this.
 Who will do that?

If no one else volunteers, I will.

 Most importantly, we need to know if any money is
 involved, including registration fees.

I've looked through the website quite a bit, and it is free for all
participants.  The only additional costs will be hotel accommodations,
food, and possibly parking/transportation to get there.  It sounds
like breakfast and lunch can be purchased on-site, but dinner would be
on your own.

Perhaps the organizer could find a good place meet for dinner for
those who don't have other plans.

We need to have the entry form submitted prior to October 16, but the
earlier the better is my opinion.  On October 23 they announce who was
accepted, at which point we should begin formalizing plans for talks,
participants, etc.

I found this link [1] to a proposal of the GNUstep project. It gives
an idea of what is meant by 'target projects'. Essentially, it's a
list of projects that would participate in the devroom.
