UPDATE: I just made contact with the coordinator of the "2013 Doc Camp Call for Proposals".
• We just missed the August 7 deadline. Can we still sneak in? --> Yes, if we hurry. • Do they insist on people showing up for the full five days? --> Yes, you must commit to all 5 days. (October 14-18, 2013) The first two days discuss doc strategies, and has proven very valuable to the teams. • Might we pick up individual volunteers at the event? --> Yes. They have two types of application, Individual and Project. The individuals may "shop around" to volunteer with any of the declared projects. • How many people? --> We may nominate up to 5 people. • Cost? --> Accommodation and food costs - Free. --> Travel - Part or complete travel costs may be covered, as requested in our application. Also, Josh Berkus said on this thread that community funds may be able to cover airfare costs. • When? --> Five days: October 14-18, 2013 (Monday-Friday) • Where? --> Google's Mountain View headquarters in California. • More info? --> http://www.flossmanuals.org/news/2013-doc-camp-call-proposals I'm very excited by this opportunity to make a breakthrough on some newbie/introduction/orientation/installation doc. I might even go it alone, but the synergy and productivity would be so much greater with at least one or two other team members. I am willing to coordinate the team and write the proposal (answer a series of questions given to me by the Doc Camp coordinator), unless Josh Berkus or someone else wants to lead the way. --Basil Bourque -- Sent via pgsql-docs mailing list (pgsql-docs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-docs
