I got a few queries on how we were planning to run the event online. We are working on setting up an instance of Summit Scheduler. This platform is used by Ubuntu to run their online summits for each release. You can see an instance of Summit Scheduler in action for their summits at http://summit.ubuntu.com/ Summit Scheduler relies on Google Hangouts for organizing the live sessions. The session presenters use a Google Hangout setup. The attendees use a Youtube live stream to watch and IRC to ask questions/participate. Once done, the sessions will be available on Youtube later. Mike Lee has agreed to be the "Director" of the Google Hangouts process with tips and tricks on how best to run these sessions. The submission of proposals, organization of the calendar, timing etc. is all done by the Summit Scheduler. Aaron Borden is working on setting up a version of the Summit Scheduler with our own branding/colors etc. The code and instructions for Summit Scheduler can be found at http://summit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ Do let me know if you have any other questions. cheers, Sameer -- Sameer Verma, Ph.D. Professor, Information Systems San Francisco State University http://verma.sfsu.edu/ http://commons.sfsu.edu/ http://olpcsf.org/ http://olpcjamaica.org.jm/ _______________________________________________ Marketing mailing list Marketing@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/marketing
