JASIG Community, JASIG has always been about people coming together to share and learn in an open environment, and this is what a BarCamp is all about. As demonstrated by the success of the Summer 2007 Conference mini BarCamp, the "unconference" format fits very well with our community values and goals. This year the JASIG Winter Conference will be held as a BarCamp instead of the traditional conference format. This event will provide opportunities to collaborate on all JASIG community initiatives. There will not be a separate Winter Conference or Fall uPortal Developer Meeting.
What happens at BarCamp? - stakeholders create project road maps - developers discuss, design, and develop - implementers share tips, strategies - designers discuss techniques - members chart out strategic direction We are in the very early stages of organizing this new exciting event and need your help. 1) Please RSVP Registration fees will be kept as low as possible and potentially zero. If you think you might attend please RSVP. This will help us ensure we have adequate meeting space and food. RSVP @ http://opensource.meetup.com/74/calendar/6047091/ 2) When is the best time for the BarCamp? There are always a number of events happening throughout the year. Please help us determine the best time to have the BarCamp.
