update : this pool will be closed next Sunday october 15 at 23 PM ----- Mail d'origine ----- De: eche...@free.fr À: coreboot <coreboot@coreboot.org> Envoyé: Sun, 08 Nov 2015 15:57:34 +0100 (CET) Objet: Re: [coreboot] Coreboot hackaton 2016 (proposal in Paris)
Hello, I would like to remind everybody that there is a doodle about the organisation of the next coreboot meeting (hackaton) -> http://doodle.com/poll/6udccyrsqtqy2ndt I kindly ask you to answer this pool, because it will help me to determine the optimal time frame for this event. Even if you aren't sure 100%, answer please, this is only an indicative pool for me.. It is very import to know how many people are (even remotely..) interested, especially if the event has to be organized at an early date (say just after the FOSDEM 2016..). By the way, I would like to make a suggestion : if the pool results finally converge to some kind of "bipolar distribution" ( ;-) ), i.o.w. there is a group of people who favor a spring meeting and another group who favor a fall meeting, maybe we should "split" the coreboot hackaton and make 2 "sub-hackatons".. ;-) But in this case, someone else should pick up the task to organise the other meeting, because I cannot manage alone two coreboot meetings in one year.. What do you think?

I'd also suggest it be a 6 month interval between meetings, which is the other reason I thought end of january was a bit too soon. Sound OK? What Stefan says is very true. I have friends here in the US who must have 2016 travel approved by dec. 31 2015. ron On Mon, Nov 2, 2015 at 4:32 PM Stefan Reinauer <stefan.reina...@coreboot.org> wrote: > * David Hendricks <dhend...@google.com> [151102 21:00]: > > Piggybacking on other conferences can certainly help overseas > travellers.
