Hi Everyone Another topic that came up from the discussions in Seville was to look at the possibility of organising and running some OFBiz meetups or events.
Meeting up at Apachecon is a great way to strengthen relationships and also collaborate. Could we make use of meetups (real and virtual) to bring the community together? Many other ASF projects have meetups but OFBiz doesn't - we tend to meetup at Apachecon and that's it. Could we look at organising some meetups, hackathons, training etc? We have a lot of work so the meetups could be a way for a group of people to work together on a specific topic. It could also be used to do some outreach (recruit new members) as well as providing some valuable information / training etc for existing community members. We have a strong community in Europe â would a separate OFBiz event / meetup in Europe work? (or should we continue to use Apachecon?). What about the US? By the way - I understand that there is now a focus on getting projects to run their 'summits' as part of Apachecon, so this could be something we could look at? I've also heard that there is a large OFBiz community in India - so could this be an option? Anyway I'd like to find out if there is any interest so please let me have your feedback and comments. Thanks Sharan
