Chances are June will not work for me.
 
 I think many individual contributors can't afford cross continent travel.
 
 Even if funding would be available I think travel to the US is
 unattractive for very many.
 
All meetings thusfar have been in Europe. Take a little give a little.

[coreboot] coreboot meeting this summer!

2015-03-12 Thread Stefan Reinauer
Hey folks!

the coreboot meeting in Prague last year was a great success, and I
suggest that we have a get together this year.

To alternate between continents, I would like to organize a coreboot
project meeting in San Jose, California this summer. I have talked to a
few people, and it seems that end of June could be a good time frame for
this.

If you are interested in joining this summer, if you have ideas, or
concerns, please contact me, so we can get the planning started as soon
as possible and make this happen.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Stefan

I think it would be pretty cool. I think we should try it.

 Now that sounds like a really neat plan. GVC is Google Video Conference?

 That said, I was silently working on securing rooms (lab+lecture hall)
 for a coreboot conference at Bonn-Rhein-Sieg university near Bonn,
 Germany sometime during this summer/fall. So far it looks like we might
 be able to get such rooms for free and accommodation at reasonable
 prices. Plus, Cologne Cathedral is close to the venue.

 We could try to combine both approaches from a timing perspective and
 have the European end of the video conference at the venue I'd organize,
 and get the American end set up in San Jose. I'd have to check how the
 timing works, though.

 Thoughts?
