Re: [REQUEST] Speakers and Volunteers for OpenExpo Europe 2018 Madrid

Hi,

Being a native spanish speaker I would love to help too, with a talk
related to Apache / Mentoring / Open Source in general, or one on the
project I am a committer.

And of course I can also help with the booth too. I suppose giving
info in the native language would be greatly appreciated :)

 Hi Everyone

 Here is an update about our involvement in the Open Expo Conference in 
 Madrid later this year. We are actively looking for speakers to present 
 and talk at the event as well as volunteers to help out on the Apache 
 booth.

 A few people are already writing some articles for the Open Expo ebook 
 that is due to be published soon that looks at open source trends for 
 2018. (And thanks to all the people who volunteered to write something)

 Last year the conference was held on one day, but for 2018 it is scheduled 
 over two days 6th and 7th June.  You can find out more information on 
 their website.

 https://openexpoeurope.com/en/

 In preparation for the conference later this year , we have been offered 
 the following:

 Presentation Slot
 We have been allocated a 30 minute presentation slot on 6th June 2018. We 
 can choose the content and the presentation can be in English or in 
 Spanish.

 If you would like to present at the conference then please let me know. 
 (Jan or Ignasi – if either of you are interested in doing then please 
 let me know as you have experience of the conference already!)

 Talent Acquisition
 They will have a Open Talent Acquisition area where people can do a short 
 presentation and talk about what they are looking for. In the case of the 
 ASF, the organisers suggested that we could talk about what the ASF is 
 looking for when selecting projects for incubation.

 So we are looking for someone who can talk about incubation at the 
 conference and in Spanish (as I would guess would be best)

 Mentoring
 They have a start up and community village and would like someone (or 
 mulitple people :-) from the ASF to talk about mentoring and things like 
 how to manage a community, how to contribute to a community etc

 So we are looking for someone (or people) who can help us with this at the 
 conference. Once again I think Spanish is going to be a pre-requsite 
 because of the conference audience.

 General Networking
 They are offering us an opportunity to network with the Spanish community 
 at their event. I remember from the last event that we were keen to 
 promote Apache in Spain and try and get a bigger profile so this could be 
 a good way to do it.

 So we are looking for someone who can help with this activity during the 
 conference.


 Apache Booth
 We have been offered an Apache booth at the event. Unfortunately I won't 
 be able to attend this event so we are looking for other people who are 
 interested in being on the booth during the event. (Last year all booth 
 volunteers got access to their VIP lounge for free food and drinks :-)

 If you can help out with any of our requests then please respond. The 
 OpenExpo is a free conference so if you are planning to go along or would 
 like to help out then please let me know.

 Thanks
 Sharan

I'm willing to do it, but don't want to "take" the spot if other,
more qualified people can.

Re: The Apache Software Foundation Community Sponsorship Trade with DeveloperWeek

2018-01-09 Thread Sharan Foga 
Hi All

An quick update on this. 

The feedback from Sally is that the content of the email blast is OK. Instead 
of of posting the message directly to the ComDev mailing list, we can create it 
as a ComDev blog post and then point all promotions about the event to the blog 
post.

She is also willing to list the event at part of the weekly roundup and maybe 
tweet it with the ASF account. (We can definitely tweet it from ComDev)

The organisers seem to be happy with this arrangement so will list us a 
Community Sponsor and give us an allocation of free tickets to the event.

Thanks
Sharan
