Hi Nick et al,

While I haven't discussed this yet with the (P)PMCs also on the CC, I'd like see if we can come up with enough interest and proposals for a track like

   "Social & Mobile Apps & Activities".

We've got quite a few active Apache projects and podlings which IMO have a overlapping and shared community and purpose: Shindig, Rave, Wookie (podling), Wave (podling), Cordova (callback podling), and maybe even more.

I've included all the PMCs of these projects on the CC so to invite them to participate and provide feedback if they would be interested in this, flesh this out in more detail and/or have ideas otherwise.

I personally am definitely willing to help and if needed chair such a track, as well as provide a proposal for at least one talk, probably about Rave :)

Regards, Ate

Hi All

Could mentors please forward this to their podlings, with help as needed? I
don't expect very many podlings to put on their own tracks (only OOo springs to
mind), but many podlings would be a good fit for a broader track with other
related TLPs. Please encourage them to get involved in these cross project track
submissions, for their subject areas!

Thanks
Nick

Subject: Tracks for ApacheCon Europe - Project Proposals needed

Hi All

As you hopefully all know, we are holding our first ApacheCon Europe in a few
years this November in Germany. We are aiming to open the Call for Papers (CFP)
very soon (a week or two!), but before we do we need something from projects
that would like to get involved. That is, we want to work out the tracks before
opening the CFP.

Several projects have already expressed an interest in holding a track, via the
apachecon-discuss[1] mailing list, which is wonderful! We have a number of great
proposals there, but not all projects have volunteers on that list, so now is
the chance for all the other projects who'd like to have talks at ApacheCon
Europe to get involved!

At this point, we're looking for proposals from projects / groups of projects
for a track. We need to know what it would be, which projects will be involved,
and who from the projects will be available to help with talk selection etc.
This is quite similar to what we've done recently, though perhaps a little more
structured this year.

If your project / cluster of projects would like to have a track, please let us
know the details via the form at: <http://s.apache.org/ACEUTracks>
Please fill out the form soon (within a week if possible), so we can get the CFP
open as soon as possible!

If you have any questions, the best place to ask is the apachecon-discuss[1]
mailing list.


Once we have the track proposals, we'll feed them into the CFP system, then open
up the CFP! Those keen to speak may wish to start drafting their talk
submissions in preparation!

Thanks
Nick
