Hello everyone, I'm excited to announce that we will be hosting the first Apache OpenDAL Beijing Meetup in Beijing.
Thanks to @BohuTANG from Databend for sponsoring the venue for our meetup. --- - Discussion: https://github.com/apache/opendal/discussions/4812 - When: 2024-09-14, Saturday 13:00 ~ 17:00 - Where: [北京市朝阳区北辰西路 8 号北辰世纪中心](https://maps.app.goo.gl/4Tr7JCJ5HdCoVGdeA) ## Agenda - 12:00 - 13:00: Lunch / Networking (food provided) - 13:00 - 14:00: Welcome / Introductions - 14:00 - 15:00: Talks - 15:00 - 15:30: Coffee / Email Break - 15:30 - 16:30: Breakouts / Discussions - 16:30 - 17:00: Close / Conclusion ## Welcome / Introductions Speaker: Xuanwo Brief introductory remarks, thank to the sponsor, outline of the day, participant introductions (name, github handle, optional affiliation, optional reason you came to the meetup) ## Talks Call for Presenters: 10-15 minute low key introduction to your project/product, how you use OpenDAL, and any thoughts you may have about what, found challenging, and any things you are working on / thinking about - @tison about OpenDAL Community Growth - @xuanwo about OpenDAL Core 1.0 - @WenyXu for using OpenDAL in GreptimeDB - @wcy-fdu for using OpenDAL in RisingWave - @drmingdrmer for using OpenDAL in OpenRaft ## Breakouts / Discussions The idea is that we will break into small groups for 3 x 20 minute sessions. I will ring a gong or something similar every 20 minutes and you should find a new group to discuss. Potential seed topics (but obviously feel free to discuss anything): - How do we make it easier for people to build systems on OpenDAL? What are the current barriers to community growth as you see them? - How do we make it easier for people to contribute back to OpenDAL? What are the current barriers to contribution - What features would you like to see / not see Ideally, in each session, one or more people would volunteer to write up any insights they got from the discussions, and post them to the overall ticket.
