Dave 08/11/2014 Attendees Dave Lester, Vinod Kone, Benjamin Hindman, Isabel Jimenez, Timothy St Clair, Chris Aniszczyk, Matt Trifiro Attendee/Registration Update As of last Friday, 220 total: 129 MesosCon, 91 Linuxcon with MesosCon add-on registration. 40 registered for the hackathon. Call for Volunteers The program committee is actively looking for volunteers to help out in half-day shifts at #MesosCon: * time keepers * mic runners * an assistant to help speakers setup with the projector * assisting at the t-shirt table If you are willing to help out, please drop Dave Lester ([email protected]) an email. Reminders and Announcements The Linux Foundation will send out an email to all attendees in the coming days with further logistical information and reminders, watch for that in your inbox! Schedule and Talks The abstract for the eBay adopter talk has been modified to focus on running YARN alongside Mesos, instead of the previously-planned Jenkins on Mesos talk. http://mesoscon14.sched.org/event/a01a93e42f5e9688afb6e2b3c7cb4d5f#.U-rDwYBdVig Space and Logistics The program committee discussed the room configuration and space for the conference; a follow-up conversation with the Linux Foundation confirmed that chairs in the room will reflect the latest number of registered attendees. We will have a packed house. Presenters have the option of testing their laptops and presentations at 7:30am the morning of the conference prior to doors opening. Twitter will be recording video of keynotes and sessions; these will not be streamed live, but made available after the event. Mesosphere will also be capturing video content, and running a “news desk” in the speaker lounge to produce complementary video content.
