Re: Booth Volunteers Needed for Dataworks Summit Berlin

[Alan Gates]

Small clarification, you only have to staff the booth one hour on one of
two days, not 3 hours both days.

Looking for someone to give an Apache talk at Dataworks Summit EU 2018

[Alan Gates]

Hi Apache comdev friends, Hortonworks will be hosting the Dataworks Summit
EU in Berlin April 16-19th (https://dataworkssummit.com/berlin-2018/ ).  We
would like to invite Apache to deliver a talk on the Apache way or a
related topic as a part of this conference.  The format will be a 30 minute
talk with time for questions.  Our audience will be interested in learning
more about Apache, how it builds software and manages its projects, ways to
contribute beyond writing code, and how to get involved in Apache
projects.  The speaker will receive free admission to the conference.
Please let us know if there is someone from Apache interested in speaking.

Thanks.

Alan.

Re: Adding roster of community-focused talks

[Alan Gates]

I'm happy to contribute my material to this and work it into a state where
others can adapt it to their corporate experiences as well.  And for things
located in the SF Bay Area I'm happy to give the training.

Re: Help Wanted: ApacheCon content committee

[Alan Gates]

Do you need help with Apache BigData as well?  I would not be very useful for 
main ApacheCon but I'd be happy to help with the big data side.

Re: My keynote from Apache Big Data on Hortonworks internal Apache training

[Alan Gates]

I added my slides to the page and committed them.  When I get to the publish 
site step it tells me I don’t have permission.  I checked and my changes did 
get committed into SVN, so I assume someone with permission just needs to 
republish the site.

Re: My keynote from Apache Big Data on Hortonworks internal Apache training

[Alan Gates]

I’d like to add this to the page 
https://community.apache.org/speakers/slides.html

The comdev site mentions that any changes should be posted to the comdev list 
first, so here’s the discussion.

Also, I’m not clear what the technical process for modifying the page is.  Do I 
need to rebuild the site after making the change?  Is there some way to test 
that my changes are valid?

Yeah, when we present the material we talk through that, but you’re right it 
might be worth putting it on the slide.

My keynote from Apache Big Data on Hortonworks internal Apache training

[Alan Gates]

All,

As those who were at Apache Big Data in Seville saw, I gave a keynote there 
where I discussed Hortonworks doing internal training on Apache.  Rich 
suggested that I might want to bring this conversation to the comdev list, 
hence this email.

I’m happy to share the contents of the training on the community website if 
people think that will be useful.  You can see the slides from the keynote at 
[1] and the slides from our training at [2].  The training covers Apache and 
the Apache way, a little bit about licenses and the Apache license, why 
Hortonworks chooses to work with Apache, how our employees should handle their 
dual roles as Hortonworkers and Apache community members, a set of best 
practices and things to avoid, and a brief discussion of trademarks.  

Several others have said their companies need something similar.  If you find 
them useful you’re free to use our slides as starting point, and I’m happy to 
share insights from our experience.

Alan.

Re: Distributing ASF Material

[Alan Gates]

I would like to add some context to Ted’s complaint.  If he is talking about 
the incident that I think he is, it happened years before Hortonworks was 
founded.  (I wasn’t there, but I have heard the story from those who were.)  He 
was at a Hadoop User Group promoting MapR’s proprietary file system as better 
than Hadoop’s HDFS, which was not appreciated.  So to bring this out now as 
“Hortonworks does not respect Apache ways” is not reasonable.

With my Apache hat on, regarding Sharan’s original question of handing out 
material at Grace Hopper, I agree that keeping a clear distinction between 
Hortonworks and Apache is appropriate.  It seems to me that her original 
proposal of having Apache members and committers who happen to also be 
Hortonworkers hand out the material accomplishes that.

Alan.
