People generally agree that 1 day is not enough. They also agree that
after a week of conferencing, one day is plenty. Your call.

One big one, so people can cross pollinate.

Some moveable whiteboards or flip-charts for planning meetings.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Code sprints at FOSS4G 2013

2012-10-17 Thread Steven Feldman
I know it is very early to start talking about code sprints for FOSS4G 2013 but 
we have a couple of options that we would like to share.

The rough timetable for FOSS4G 2013 currently looks like this:

Tuesday 17th Sept - Workshops
Wednesday 18th -Workshops, Icebreaker event in the evening
Thursday 19th - Conference Opens, Plenary, Streams, Gala night
Friday 20th -   Conference streams, afternoon plenary, free 
night
Saturday 21st - Conference streams, closing plenary, FOSS4G closes, 
informal party for those staying over
Sunday 22nd -   Side meetings, chapter groups

So the questions are
When do you want to run the code sprints? Our preference would be to provide 
facilities for the code sprints on Sunday 22nd but if there was a strong 
preference to go for the Monday we could try to secure space for that (not 
guaranteed but we could try)
If there is a choice between one large space with clusters for the different 
projects or a series of smaller rooms which would you prefer?
Apart from power, internet and coffee are there any other requirements?

Can we get your feedback on this in next few days as we will need to make some 
choices with the venue by early next week. Apologies for short notice.
