Apologies for cross-posting... The JA-SIG Board would like to let you know that, instead of our customary winter JA-SIG conference, we intend to schedule an alternative, experimental event that will provide opportunities for longer working sessions--both technical and non-technical--among groups with similar interests and shared agendas. The winter event will provide opportunities such as:
- working with others face-to-face on projects - integrating mini-projects and design exercises - training opportunities for folks wanting to learn more about uPortal frameworks or CAS architectures - sharing HyperContent templates and best practices - shaping future direction and participating in newly formed goverance committees. We have not yet settled on a time or venue for this special event, though we will try to avoid conflicts with other major events. We will keep you posted when plans start to come together, and you can certainly expect to hear more at our JA-SIG Summer Conference in Denver, June 24-27, 2007. If you do want to attend a traditional conference with multiple tracks and sessions, the June conference is an ideal option with many exciting presentations (http://www.ja-sig.org/conferences/07summer/index.html ). In the meantime, if you would like to make any suggestions about our winter event or are interested in helping to plan for it, please send email to jjmarkow at ja-sig.org , or add a comment to our wiki page: http://www.ja-sig.org/wiki/display/JCON/07winter+Event+Brainstorming Thank you, JA-SIG Board of Directors
