This is off topic, but notice the 2013 copyright at the bottom of the page.
 Anyone know how to change that?

This has been on my list for a looong time, I have now added the
http://community.apache.org/events/small-events.html page, with a link
to it in the "events & mentoring" section of
http://community.apache.org/

Reviews and feedback are welcome.

+1 - please note that I'm asking Melissa to manage the events calendar
which means that Melissa will be monitoring this list.

So I suggest the text would be something like (no time to wordsmith and
post it right now - very happy if someone else can add it)

"The Community Development PMC is responsible for assisting with the
organisation and promotion of all Apache events. The three main steps are:

a) Get approval from the PMCs of projects that your event is about

b) Abide by the http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/events.html
branding rules

c) inform comdev of your event once brand use is approved, including
references to PMCs approval. Ideally on this public(dev@community.apache.org)
 list, but at least in private(priv...@community.apache.org).

d) Once public send an announcement of your event to
dev@community.apache.org so that it can be included in our events calendar(
http://community.apache.org/calendars/index.html)"

Melissa is also tasked with creating an Event in a Box support package for
event producers. We can make this guidance part of that.

Clarifying the small events organizers requirements

2013-09-11 Thread Bertrand Delacretaz
Hi comdev,

We had a few cases recently where small events organizers were unsure
of where and how to get approval for their events.

As Ross said elsewhere, the only requirements now are

a) Get approval from the PMCs of projects that your event is about

b) Abide by the http://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/events.html
branding rules

to which I'd add

c) inform comdev of your event before it happens, including references
to PMCs approval. Ideally on this public list, but at least in
private.

Can we add that info (yes I volunteer) to a new page that the "Events
and mentoring" section of http://community.apache.org/ points to, or
do we already have it somewhere?
