Fleep,
What is AvaCon?

We've added this to the agenda for our next AvaCon board meeting, and
I think that timeline sounds feasible. Most people are pretty busy
with holiday stuff for the next couple months, so starting the serious
planning after the New Year makes sense.
Will post an update after our meeting to confirm the rest of the
AvaCon folks are on board. (I don't anticipate any issues!)
Thanks,

Thanks Fleep (and everybody else) for their comments.
I was envisioning something very simple, at least for the first
year, most preferably held on up to 4 regions of osgrid. This
would be to make it simpler to control and troubleshoot, rather
than having to co-ordinate with a number of people and different
grid conditions. I think that it also provides better focus,
though of course there's no reason people couldn't also just go
and visit other locations intergrid or hypergrid.
I would also try to squeeze as many avatars in a single
voice-enabled location rather than relay to other places. This is
probably the major technical challenge - I guess the obvious
'normal' thing to do is to meet at the intersection of 4 simulators.
I will be leaning very heavily on people like Avacon and yourself,
Fleep, for organization since this is far from my strong point.
So help will be really appreciated.
My own mental timetable is to start the ball rolling in earnest
early next year (probably January) with a view to having the
conference in the last half or quarter of 2013. So next year I
will create a Google group and ask interested people to join so we
can start talking further and get volunteers.
Of course, any early suggestions from yourself (or anybody else)
are very welcome since people have vastly more experience and
skill with this kind of stuff than do I!
Best,
Justin

Hi Justin,
About a year ago, AvaCon discussed the possibility of
organizing an online Opensim Users Conference, but it seemed like
the timing wasn't good for many folks:
http://www.avacon.org/blog/events/opensim-users-conference/
I'd need to check
with the rest of the Avacon board since we haven't discussed
it in a while, but I'm pretty sure we'd still be up for
organizing or sponsoring/partnering with others if this is
something the community would like to do.
Personally I think it's a great idea, I'm sure there are tons
of things we could all learn from each other, and I always
love an excuse to go visit other grids!
