Greetings SDRuby I am involved with setting up a conference next year and more specifically, with hosting a developer competition that will run for the duration of the 2 day conference. The conference will attract many in the non-profit/education space. I humbly ask your time and advice on helping me with the following questions:
1. In your opinion, what makes for a good format for the competition? One project, many teams? Many projects, one team? Other variations? 2. How would I attract companies and organizations to send their developers to this conference and participate in the competition? 3. If you have participated or experienced this type of competition, would you mind sharing a few thoughts with me on your observation or enjoyment? I want to create a buzz at the conference and thought I'd start with asking the crew that gave me a buzz :) -- Etienne de Bruin -- SD Ruby mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/sdruby
