Incubator Lightning Talks at ApacheCon US?
Hiya everyone, At ApacheCon US in Austin next month, we're scheduled to have a two-hour block for Incubator Lightning Talks. (Thursday 4:30-6:30pm) This time is roughly to do as we see fit. Our initial idea was to have short (15-min?) talks about as many podlings as we can fit in to the timeslot. Tell us what the project is about, who is involved, why I should download it, etc, etc. You've got 15 minutes to convince a room full of Apache folks to contribute to your project. Go forth. Do folks here agree that this is a good idea? Do we have any volunteers to help coordinate this? Do we have podlings that are interested in presenting? All things considered, I'd give priority to already accepted and active podlings; but if someone has a proposal they'd like to discuss and we have space for it, that's cool too. Heck, if a full ASF project wants to get up there, that's fine by me, too. (I don't have a clue what a bunch of TLPs are actually up to anyway...) Note that no financial assistance will be provided to speakers in this lightning session - so you do have to get to Austin on your own. Thanks! -- justin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Incubator Lightning Talks at ApacheCon US?
Do we have podlings that are interested in presenting? I'm not sure at this time whether I can make it to Austin, but if I can, I would certainly be interested in trying to sell Wicket in 15 minutes.

If you can't digest it to 5 minutes their eyes have glazed over, if they aren't excited enough to dig into the project by then you failed to persuade :) Otherwise - great idea! - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

5 minutes is great people always overrun but its better to aim for 5 than aim for 15. Paul PS I'd love to do a Synapse talk.

This is a great idea.

But, we can compress the time available to the podling as more folks sign up. If only one podling signs up, they get 2 hours to talk. =) FWIW, ConCom folks have suggested that it be named 'fast track' or something. The concept is still the same. -- justin - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'd love to do 5 minutes on Cayenne! How does one sign up for this? Should I just show up ready to speak? Thanks Justin for organizing this.

Well, that would get you at least some attention... But probably not of the right kind for you I suppose :-) Hmm, this would be much longer than your 3 minute Wicket at JavaOne '05.

BTW, I am sorry I won't be able to attend. Good luck with fitting all the podlings in the 2 hour slot.

I'm in favor of 5 minute sessions. I'll be happy to talk about Heraldry.

Yeah, also in favor of five minutes.

I added the UimaProposal to the wiki list of Lightning Talks. Who knows, maybe by ApacheCon time, we'll even be a new Podling. Explaining it in 5 minutes will be a good challenge :-) -Marshall Schor - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
