Re: Maven Meetup In Amsterdam?

2009-03-05 Thread Gabriele Columbro
I'd reallly believe that a Maven Meetup in Amsterdam is a very good idea and
a very nice place to share our Maven knowledge, too many times felt by
junior developers as highly black magic ;)

And for us (Sourcesense) to discuss some of our work in Sourcesense around
Maven ALM support [1] and around Alfresco ECM Maven support [2].

Any other maven user/dev interested to join (I'm extending the request to
the user list to get some more attendees)?

I believe that getting to 15/20~ attendees is to be considered the treshold
for organizing this. I will be also forwarding this email to my customers to
get more attention around the topic.

HTH,
Gab

 Hi Petar,

 Great idea. We're a couple (3-5) developers from Sourcesense NL, based in
 Amsterdam. We would be interested in coming, and also giving a short talk on
 Application Lifecycle Management with Maven. Since we're based in Amsterdam,
 we could also help organizing or drum up some more local developers.
 @nick you're probably there, more people from IProfs interested?

 Regards,
 Rogier

 Hi guys,

 I got an email from Arje Cahn with a proposal to make a Maven
 GetTogether/Meetup during the ApacheCON in Amsterdam. I am
 very interested in such an event but I do feel that it will only make
 sense if more of the Maven developers are present at the
 conference.

 I know for sure me, Carlos and Wendy are going to be there.
 Anybody else planning to attend? If we get there more people
 we can easily setup a wiki page and announce a few sessions there.

 What do you think?

 Here is the email from Arje:

 Hi all,

 I'm sending you this email because we've done GetTogethers / Meetups
 together, or have spoken about them somewhere in the past.
 If you feel I should be addressing different people, or different
 projects, I'd be grateful if you could point me to the right project
 and/or person! :)

 As you are probably very much aware of, the ApacheCon Europe is in
 about 7 weeks, in Amsterdam.

 I got a really nice offer from the ApacheCon producers. The Matterhorn
 rooms are available in the evenings for Meetup / GetTogether style
 events. This means we can host up to 3 evening Meetups, from 18:00 -
 22:00, with our own program, on Monday evening and Tuesday evening,
 all within the ApacheCon venue (the Movenpick). Meetups happen after
 the trainings. This is in my opinion a much better opportunity than we
 had last year where we were
 1) in a different location
 2) conflicting with the hackaton
 3) conflicting with trainings

 Grant, I'd love to hear your thoughts from your Lucene perspective. I
 know last year was unclear and I hope to be able to straighten that
 out with you this year. We're *not* organizing Lucene meetups without
 having Lucene people on board :)

 Potentially, we could have 6 Meetups in total. The rooms can hold up
 to 100 people each. Wifi, beamers, etc, is all taken care of.

 The question I have for you all, is whether you think you and / or
 your project would be interested in filling an evening. Can you
 organize between 20 and 100 people from your project, and put up an
 agenda with speakers and talks?

 Also, we'll have to come up with some sponsors. To give you an idea -
 last years Meetups were sponsored by 2 to 4 sponsors per project,
 paying roughly 1000 euro each to cover all costs.
 These sponsors will then become official ApacheCon Meetup sponsors and
 get marketed like that on the ApacheCon website.

 Right now, the planners have asked me to come up with a list of Apache
 projects that would be interested in the idea. If you're interested,
 please let me know ASAP, as I need to follow up on Monday to be able
 to be in time with all the marketing stuff going on around ApacheCon.

 Hope you like this idea as much as I do!

Hi Arje,

seems there's some interested people in a Maven Meetup, how can we proceed?
can we get the wiki created for people to signup and see how many we are?

Thanks
