Showcase your project at ApacheCON at a Podling's Shark Tank
Hi Podlings! in less than a month we're going to have our first ApacheCON this year -- the one in Las Vegas. In about two month there will be one more in Berlin. These are not your regular ApacheCONs -- these are 20th Anniversary of ASF ApacehCONs! In other words, these are not to be missed! And even if your talk didn't get accepted -- you still get an opportunity to highlight your project to, what's likely going to be the biggest audience attending. Here's how: if you (or any community member who's passionate about your project) are going to be at either of those ApacheCONs consider signing up for Podling's Shark Tank events: https://www.apachecon.com/acna19/s/#/scheduledEvent/1038 https://aceu19.apachecon.com/session/podlings-shark-tank Each project presenting will get ~10 min for the pitch and ~5 min of panel grilling them on all sorts of things. Kind of like this ;-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmenN7NEdBc You've got nothing to lose (in fact, the opposite: you're likely to get a prize!) and you will get a chance to receive feedback that might actually help you grow your community and ultimately graduate to the TLP status. And! Given our awesome panel of judges: * Myrle Krantz * Justin Mclean * Craig Russel * Shane Curcuru We guarantee this to be a fun and useful event for your community! We will be tracking signups over here: https://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/ACNA19PodlingSharkTank https://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/ACEU19PodlingSharkTank but for now: SIMPLY REPLY TO THIS EMAIL if you're interested. It is first come, first serve -- so don't delay -- sign up today! Thanks, Roman.
Podling Shark Tank Sessions next week
Hi! my apologies for reaching out directly to the dev@ mailing lists, but since both Edgenet and Rya volunteered to present at Podling Shark Tank Sessions next week I'd like to make sure it happens. More details here: https://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/ACNA17PodlingSharkTank I tried to reach out to Will and Adina directly but without much luck so I'm trying to see if the rest of the community can help me find them. All I need at this point is for Will and Adina to contact me off-list so I can make sure they come to the session prepared. Thanks, Roman.
Consider highlighting your podling at ApacheCON in Seville
Hi! with ApacheCON in Seville right around the corner chances are you've made your travel arrangements already. If you happen to be around the conference on Fri, November 18th, 16:30 - 17:20 why not use that time to highlight your favorite podling? https://s.apache.org/aceu2016_shark_tank Podling Shark Tank is back and it is a perfect opportunity to give a short, 5 min pitch in a fun environment. You don't have to be a committer on the project, or even a developer! All you have to have is a bit of free time and a lot of passion to let the world know how awesome this project is! If you feel interested -- please either sign up on the wiki page (it also provides more details on the event) https://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/Seville16PodlingSharkTank or just reply to this thread. Either way -- hope to see you at Podling Shark Tank in Seville! Thanks, Roman.
Showcase your project at ApacheCON: consider Podling Shark Tank
Hi! I apologize for the wide distribution, but since my email to general@ didn't seem to have reached all of the podling communities, I took the liberty of direct email. Here's the deal: If you are (or anybody you know who's passionate about your project is) going to travel to Vancouver for ApacheCON we've got an awesome opportunity for you to showcase your project. Even if you don't have talks scheduled in the regular program, consider doing a lighting talk at Podling Shark Tank: https://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/ACEU16PodlingSharkTank You've got nothing to lose (in fact, the opposite: you're likely to get a prize!) and you will get a chance to receive feedback that might actually help you grow your community and ultimately graduate to the TLP status. Given our awesome panel of judges: * Jim Jagielski * Shane Curcuru * Milind Bhandarkar We guarantee this to be a fun and useful event for your community! Please sign up on the wiki ASAP. The time is running out! Thanks, Roman. P.S. If you have *any* questions whatsoever, but especially if you have questions on logistics please email me directly.
