Re: ApacheCon papers?

2015-01-12 Thread Claude Warren 
I was thinking along the lines of the Semantic Web Conference  and other
technical conferences that produce a "Proceedings" journal (without
ApacheCon having to go through the expense), where they publish the papers
after the conference as a journal, ApacheCon could publish the papers
online.  it would  be more work for the speakers who wish to participate
but would probably lead to wider dissemination of their ideas and findings.

That might happen but what I usually do is include in my slides links to
more detailed documents, blog posts, reading lists etc.

I agree that just slides is often not enough to get your message through.
That's why I tend to talk during my talks ;-)

ApacheCon papers?

I noticed that the ApacheCon site seems to have downloads of slide decks.

I have a friend that did "A year without Powerpoint(tm)".  That is, he
provided more detail in the takeaway documents.  I find that the slides
from a slide show are worthless after a couple of hours, that I don't
recall the detail I need.  However, a document that contains the basic
synopsis of the idea, the work done to prove/disporve viability, contact
info and URIs is much valuable.

Would ApacheCon place other speaker provided documents on the donwload site
in additon to the slide deck?

RE: ApacheCon Poster Session?

2015-01-12 Thread Ross Gardler (MS OPEN TECH) 
Are you willing to organize this? I've never been much of a fan of poster 
sessions at conferences, but others will strongly disagree with me, I'm sure.

It might be a good idea to have these in the hackathon space. Where folks from 
the involved projects are present they could locate themselves near the posters.

Anyway, it will only happen if someone steps up to organize it.

Subject: ApacheCon Poster Session?

Has any thought been given to adding poster sessions at ApacheCon?

I think it would be easy to give maximum dimensions and have people simply ship 
posters if they can not attend, or if they just want to do a poster
only.ApacheCon staff would affix the poster to the stands and take them
down after.

In my opinion return of posters should not be offered.

I would be interested in sending a poster if it were available.
