  We are thinking about spring 2007 (March or April).
 
  The meeting place would be the south of the Netherlands,  close to
  Maastricht Aachen Airport.

Sounds pretty perfect to me ... so I would be there

conferences make the world go around :)

as the timeline is quite stretched, i propose to make a
wiki page about this, your mail will be inevitably
lost in the archives.  also the discussion feature of
the wiki will be excellent.



i think a community heading on the contextgarden.net
main page would be a great place to put articles like
this (i don't have the right to create it), also along
with companies/individuals offering commercial/non-commercial
support, etc.

i also think that having a news blog (which is quite
dead) is a bit of an overkill, the couple of news
items which appear could be handled manually in
the wiki itself


oh my, i got quite offtopic again :)

[NTG-context] Possible users meeting?

2006-05-15 Thread Taco Hoekwater
Hi all,

On the trip to (and from) Bachotek, Hans and I have discussed a
great many topics related to ConTeXt.

One of the things we discussed was this: If there is sufficient
interest, we could organize a ConTeXt (mini)conference.

Tentative programme:

   friday night   : arrivals
   saturday   : talks
   sunday : talks/tutorials/workshops
   monday morning : early departures
   monday : developer meetings  more tutorials

We are thinking about spring 2007 (March or April).

The meeting place would be the south of the Netherlands,  close to
Maastricht Aachen Airport. We cannot say how much it would cost
without a better idea of number of attendees/programme, but we will
try to keep the costs low.

Some stuff we really want to know, so we can make a final decision:

   * are you interested in such a meeting?
 (no is also an interesting answer!)

   * would you be willing to give a talk or tutorial?
 (Hans and I cannot talk for three days straight)

   * are you happy with planning/programme?
 (any special requests about topics?)

NOTE: In the interest of email traffic control we request that if you
only reply yes or no, then please reply to me *personally*, and
no to the entire list.  Thanks in advance.


Greetings, Taco
(also talking for Hans)

Hi Taco, Hans,

Definitely a great idea. I feel that so many things are moving that it 
could be a good point to establish a new baseline.
Humble, I would definitely be prepared to help you in whatever respect 
if ever my knowledge is big enough: presentation, tutorial ...

Kind regards Willi
