Shane,

Good ideas.  My only comment is that nobody has stood up and said "I'll
drive".  So there is nobody to create the page, nobody to say: "Hey, put
your ideas over there".  I'm still waiting for that person to put their
head above the parapet.

Re: [C/C Europe 25] [DISCUSS] Where to hold the conference

2024-05-05 Thread Claude Warren
As to timing:  You are now in Q2, and it takes about a year to get this
organized.  So Q1 2025 seems like a stretch, unless you have people with
experience running conferences running 2025.  However, since there is a
dearth of experience running ASF conference in Europe, I would suggest Q2
at the earliest.  Also, you have to consider that Q4 will put you in direct
competition with North America, and while you can make a reasonable
argument that there are lots of people in Europe that would not travel to
North America, it will impact your ability to get sponsorship.

[C/C Europe 25] [DISCUSS] Where to hold the conference

2024-05-02 Thread Claude Warren
There have been several volunteers to participate in the conference
organizing committee so perhaps we should start by discussing where the
conference should be held.

Does anyone have any strong opinions or ideas?

The 2024 committee considered the following factors when choosing the
location:

1. Production cost (venue rental + services). 2024 was a reboot (Community
over Code is not positioned) so we are starting with sponsors from
scratch.  2025 is is a slightly better place since the 2024 conference made
the European version of C/C visible to some sponsors and participants.

2. Easy to get to by either train or airport (giving priority to train,
since we expect most attendees to come from EU and only a few from North
America).

3. A city/area where it is easy to walk to nearby restaurants/bars so that
attendees would run into each other after conference hours.

4. A nice city that people would be interested in visiting, and probably
never been to.

So if you have opinions and/or ideas please speak up.

Thanks,

Claude

p.s. We are still looking for a 2025 organizing committee chair.  Care to
volunteer?


[C/C Europe 25] Organizational decisions

2024-04-26 Thread Claude Warren
Sorry for cross posting this message but conversations were started on
apachecon planners as well as community development mailing lists.

There are several people on BCC for this message.  All have expressed
interest in participating in the Community over Code Europe 2025 organizing
committee.

I would like everyone who is interested to subscribe to both lists.[1]

As the decision is still at an early stage let's continue this email thread
on dev@community.apache.org.

If you are interested in participating in the organizing committee please
respond to this email.

I would like to begin a discussion around who will chair the committee.  I
am the chair for 2024 and can tell you that while I don't have time to work
on 2025 at the moment, the workload for the chair is not that large.  It
mostly consists of scheduling the committee meetings, giving everyone space
to speak, keeping the meeting moving forward (i.e. keeping side track
discussion to a minimum), and ensuring that communications between the
committee and other organizations is understood and not garbled.   The
demands are light enough that I also took on the role of Poster Track chair
and have volunteered for some other side work as well.  But somebody needs
to step forward and take the role or there will be no conference in 2025.
I should note that the conference has not occurred yet so I don't know what
surprises lie in wait for the chair in the next 6 weeks.

There has been discussion of a C/C 2025 BOF at Bratislava.  If enough
interested people are attending we have space set aside for this.  The
group that responds to this message should decide if you want to proceed
with this meeting.

There has been a suggestion to align the C/C 2025 conference with another
conference.  This too should be discussed.

At some point, when the organizing committee believes that they are going
to move forward,  Brian Proffit, ASF VP of Conferences, should be
approached and work with the Apache Foundation should begin.  This should
start as early as possible.  The ASF can provide a fair amount of support
for the conference and it is a good idea to bring them onboard early.

So if you are interested, if you want to see Community over Code continue
in Europe then jump in here and make it happen.

Is there anyone who wants to chair the 2025 conference?  We need to find
interested people and select a leader soon.  I know that 2025 seems like a
long way away, but time slips by quickly and there are items that need to
be discussed and finalized early so that appropriate sponsors can be
contacted and onboarded.

I am hoping that we will have a BOF in Bratislava where we can talk about
some of this.

The 2024 group will be holding a post mortem and producing a lessons

[C/O Europe 2025] Conference committee forming

2024-03-21 Thread Claude Warren
A few people have expressed an interest in working on a Community over Code
conference in Europe for 2025.  Several people need to step up and decide
to form the conference committee.

For 2024 we have the following conference committee positions:

Chair: Claude Warren
Program Committee Chair: Ryan Skraba
Communitacton Committee Chair: Floor Drees
D Committee Chair: Floor Drees
Production Committee: Mara Ruvalcaba
Sponsors Committee: Pedro Galvan
Technical Committee: Jean-Baptiste Onofré

Our committee met every other week at the start and have switched to every
week as we approached the date of the conference.

As you can see we had people doubling up in some roles, and it is possible
to organize the conference with a different set of positions on the
conference committee.

If you are interested in participating in the conference committee speak up
here.  We would be happy to have you shadow us as we finish up the 2024
conference.

The above 2 points indicate that our new committer registration would
require that no handles used on people.apache.org be granted as an ASF id.

Claude,

This will get confusing. It is not often I meet another Claude from outside
my family.  I suppose we are both in the family of Claudes.  My father told
a story about a stop in a bus station long ago.  When we meet remind me and
I will tell you.

The planning for 2025 has not yet started.  What I am asking for are people
who are interested in working on the 2025 conference.  I am hoping that
there will be a self organizing group that will run the 2025 conference.
It takes about a year to get everything lined up so it seems to me that the
new organizing committee would want to start by seeing what the 2024
committee did right, and wrong.

Let me know if you are still interested and if you know anybody else who
might be,

ApacheCon website issue?

2019-10-14 Thread Claude Warren
Who is  responsible for the ApacheCon website?  On the Sponsors page for
Las Vegas (https://www.apachecon.com/acna19/sponsors.html
)
, the Hotwax systems link goes to the wrong URL.  It should probably be
https://www.hotwaxsystems.com/

 The current link https://hotwax.com
 give an SSL
error and http://hotwax.com
 is a
javascript infested site of some sort.

Mark,

I have some time on Wed.  I am traveling on Thurs and get to Las Vegas late
(family+conference).  Friday may be possible, but time zones may make it
difficult.   Optionally, if you are in Vegas for the conference we can all
meet and cover it once.

Let me know when.

I assume these are the default logos?  Are they still in .png format?  The

logo display

2019-08-11 Thread Claude Warren
In case anyone is interested, I have created a simple HTML5 page[1] with
java script that cycles through the project logos and info from the apache
logo page[2].  It only displays the default project logo.

There is a Python3 script that pulls the required images locally so the
display can run offline.

I will be bringing a Raspberry Pi-zero with show loaded to ApacheConNA so
that we can display a rotating list of all Apache projects at the booth.

If there is code space for the community project I am more than happy to
donate the code to the Apache Community project.

I see that you seem to handle most of the requests for things like adding
stickers.  While I don't have a lot of time I think I have enough to assist

Re: [Proposal] Apache Local Community

2019-06-27 Thread Claude Warren
As a developer in a small city (Galway, IE) I can't think of another Apache
developer in the area.  I am certain there must be some and I know of OS
developers that are not Apache devs.  Is there a mechanism where by Apache
committers may locate other committers in their area?  Without this
capability I don't see how I could build an ALC team.  It would be nice if
I could reach out directly to local developers.

However, I am very interested in this idea.

logo display

2019-06-21 Thread Claude Warren
Sharan,

Did you have a chance to play with the logo display project.  Will we have
a display at ApacheCon NA?  If so we should get projects to include their
logos in the logo suite so they can be displayed.

Thoughts?

Logo Display

2019-06-15 Thread Claude Warren
Greetings,

I have created a small package to provide a refreshing display of logos and
associated information for use at conferences and meetings[1].  The basic
idea is that each logo along with the most minimum of project information
is displayed on a screen (laptop or via a projector).  The system uses the
information at http://apahce.org/logos.  It makes a copy of the data so it
can run offline.  It should be possible to run the scripts on a Raspberry
PI or similar device as long as python and modern browser is available.

2019-06-14 Thread Claude Warren
Sharan,

Long ago I said something about having a rotating display of logos.  I have
one now (prototype) and should have it on a PI for ApacheCon NA.  Can you
get a projector with HDMI connector and something to project on?  If so I
can bring the gadget and we can fire it up.  As a backup, it should run on
a laptop with a browser.

Sharan,

Would you be able to get the small feather stickers and the "feather  with
Apache software foundation" text?  I added Jena to the list.  I will bring
the remainder of the Jena and  "Community over code" stickers from FOSDEM.

Vegas is my city of origin (long ago) I think I might still know a few good
places off the strip if anyone is interested.  I have family there so I am
certain I can get some current local attractions.

I have to agree, the projects I have been involved with are getting harder

ApacheCon EU 2020

2019-02-04 Thread Claude Warren
I am starting back into discussion with a group here in Galway to see if we
can get a good bid to host ApacheCon EU for 2020 here.

I know that the expected attendence is around 500 from earlier discussions
with Rich, but how many tracks should we think about having?

Also, if anyone has any indication of how funding works I would appreciate
the info. I understand that we "lend" the Apache name to a 3rd party and
they do the work and keep all/most of the € generated.  But any better
documentation would be appreciated.  Or a contact that I can provide to the
person here would be great.

Thx,
Claude

I tried to edit the page.  Can't seem to find the button to do so, perhaps
I don't have permissions -- or I am just getting old and don't see things

Anyway, I will be at FOSDEM and can help setup and probably tear down.

Re: Apachecon size

2018-06-12 Thread Claude Warren
I have started to look around with an eye to 2019 as I have contacted ITAG
locally (www.itag.ie) and with their experience they think we can put
together a proposal provided there are any open dates at the University and
provided that those dates do not clash with major events in town that tend
to eat up all the hotel space.

Should I just continue to post here or is there another channel I should
use to bring this forward?  I suspect that ITAG will want more information
concerning funding and the like.

I was planning on seeing if there was support in the area for an Apache

2019 is awful close as I have not yet tested the waters in the area to see
what we could do.  We have a couple of disadvantages that have to be
overcome.  But I will see if there is much support locally for the idea.

How much technical support is there from Apache?  By that I mean is there a
professional/semi-professional group that provides convention operational
support and guidance?  Does this include legal reviews of contracts and
assistance with contract negotiation?

I guess I am looking for an idea of how much support and expertise I need
to assemble on the ground here.  Is there anyone that has run an ApacheCon
before that could provide some guidance?  My only experience with this sort
of thing is that I ran a Science Ficiton/Horror convention in Denver once
upon time. (i.e. long ago)

Re: Apache Community Card Volunteers Needed

Sharan,

I found the MOO site very easy to use.  The only issue I had was the URL
for my Research Gate profile did not fit on the card with the "w  "
prefix.  However, the ability to edit the line meant that I was able to get
it to fit and make it look reasonable.

Well done to all who worked on getting the put together.  It is a very
simple and intuitive interface.

+1. Basically because I don't know why this is a horrible idea.

FOSDEM

Do we have a table at FOSDEM?  Is there a list of times that need to be
covered?  I will be there and can volunteer a bit of time.  Also, any plans
for a get together?

Re: Mailinglists - a tool from the 90s?

2015-01-18 Thread Claude Warren
I prefer the mailing list because it pushes new concepts to me.  Git and
such requires that I work harder to get the information.  Most of the
Apache mailing lists have a high signal to noise ratio.  And even the
signals I am not interested in don't take that long to dispose of.

 are simply a outdated tool from the 90s. They can not compete with tools
 like github/gitlab that integrate the code with the possibility to do code
 reviews, disucssions and bugtracking.

 Now I'm curious: Does anybody here really like the use of mailing lists? Or
 do we all simply go through the struggle of setting up filters etc. just

Re: Mailinglists - a tool from the 90s?

2015-01-18 Thread Claude Warren
Perhaps there is an opportunity here for a new Apache project that can meet
the requirements outlined above.  But then that might just be a me too
implementation of several new mail reading/processing tools from the big
companies.

  experiment with that; for anything radical, it's probably best to talk to
  the board early and often -- who might reflect you to, say, infra@.
 
 It will not lead to open decision-making if some project use different
 medias than other, it
 will complicate searching quite a lot.

 If (and it is a big if) ASF should change the mailing list policy it
 should be done in a uniform way for all projects.

  Many projects use other things and arrange for them to send email to the
  list as the official record; such as JIRA. Personally, I think it's a
  question whether a mailing list consisting only of a constant torrent of
  notifications from JIRA, or some code review tool, really meets up with
 the
  intent of the policy. The argument in favor is that any community member
  sees all the traffic and can hoist themselves over to the tool to be an
  equal participant.

Re: ApacheCon Poster Session?

2015-01-13 Thread Claude Warren
Seems to me that the standard disclaimer for the presentation would be
appropriate for the posters.  I would suggest adding poster as a submission
type and collect the same basic info to make an acceptance determination.

 Please make sure these posters font become advertising for companies. That
 will damage sponsorship relations. The easiest route is to say no company
 logo the slightly more complex route would be to require PMC approval of
 posters.

 You will need to coordinate with Angela at the Linux Foundation to ensure
 she is comfortable with your proposal. When you have it outlined Rich or I
 can introduce you.

  Are you willing to organize this? I've never been much of a fan of poster

 Just been at American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting in San Fran. Around
 26,000 people there. Also literally thousands of posters.
 ApacheCon, for me anyways, has always been a conference in the corridors. I
 feel that having posters would only add to this atmosphere and I feel it is
 a fantastic idea (sorry Ross :)).
 I feel that this is especially suited to the Science and Research track
 where people could even reuse posters they have used elsewhere to further
 promote their research.
 Claude, I am willing to work with you to organize this.


 
  It might be a good idea to have these in the hackathon space. Where folks
  from the involved projects are present they could locate themselves near
  the posters.
 

 Great idea Ross.


 
  Anyway, it will only happen if someone steps up to organize it.
 
 
 Claude and Lewis. We are on it. I think we should make it a casual affair
 though and as Ross has stated near to the hackathon rooms.
 Thanks
 Lewis

ApacheCon Poster Session?

2015-01-12 Thread Claude Warren
Has any thought been given to adding poster sessions at ApacheCon?

I think it would be easy to give maximum dimensions and have people simply
ship posters if they can not attend, or if they just want to do a poster
only.ApacheCon staff would affix the poster to the stands and take them
down after.

In my opinion return of posters should not be offered.

I would be interested in sending a poster if it were available.

Claude
