Re: FOSDEM 2019 Update
Hi Sharan, It was nice meeting you. Indeed, FOSDEM is huge and we are only a part of the community. You are right, the broad spectrum of the Apache projects makes them suitable for all kinds of devrooms, which makes having a dedicated devroom hard. Perhaps something like a workshop on "The Apache Way" or similar would be nice to have in addition to the stand.

Re: FOSDEM 2019 Update
Thanks Bertrand, I should have used my favorite search engine to look that up. Does the ASF publish the amount of individual/corporate donations it receives? The page looks great. I think what would increase the likelihood of donations is to have fund raising goals. Wikipedia does that really well. Something like, "help us to raise 10,000 Euro for server operations 2020". Just thinking out loud here.

Re: FOSDEM 2019 Update
Thank you for the summary Sharan! It was my first time behind the ASF stand. It was nice to talk to so many users and also interesting to see how many people do not know what the ASF is. I'm unsure whether asking for donations directly at the stand is an effective way to get donations. I think it would be worthwhile to think about a general strategy for asking for donations from individuals, which I believe the ASF does not do at the moment.

Re: FOSDEM 2019 Update
Thank you so much for the update Sharan, and to everyone who made this possible. It was a pleasure to meet in person so many of the names I see in the mailing list. +1 to the idea of having a PayPal account and a card reader. +1 to the idea of the live mailing list subscription.

Re: FOSDEM 2019 Update
Thank you Sharan for the report, and all who helped to make this possible Heartily Jacques Le 05/02/2019 à 21:21, Sharan Foga a écrit : Hi Everyone Last weekend FOSDEM was held in Brussels so wanted to post a quick update. FOSDEM weather is generally quite predictable (read that as bad!) and this time as well as rain, it snowed! Yet even with the bad weather, thousands of people made the effort to attend. Daniel flew in with our swag collection, I brought the banner and stickers. Normally we are on the first floor but this time we were located on the ground flow at the end of the row around from the reception. We arrived early on Saturday morning to setup the booth, and although things officially started at 10am, we had a crowd a few people deep, around the booth from 9.30am onwards ready to talk to us (or maybe they had seen our wonderful swag which included some very nice warm fleece hats :-) As well as the stickers and swag we also had a chrome book available for project demos and on Sunday we used it to run the video about Apache statistics. This was really useful for looking up project details and showing people where to get additional information. Our new location also meant that we had a lot of foot traffic and thanks to our booth volunteers, we managed to laugh, talk, joke and well as inform a lot more people about Apache, and Apache projects. We had queries ranging from incubator to how to foundation itself works. For the last couple of years, people had always been asking for Cassandra stickers so this time we had some – so this is when all the people wanting other stickers appeared and this years top request was Kafka followed by Commons and even Thrift! I told people that if we printed stickers for every single Apache project – the booth table would collapse! It was good to see a few projects represented at the booth – these included Beam, Httpd, Tomcat, Fineract, OFBiz, Kibble and Jena (Sorry if I’ve missed any!) and there were also a few Apache related talks on the schedule. Being at FOSDEM is great for outreach as well as the visibility of the Foundation and as a result we have been invited to participate at even more events. I’d really like to thank everyone that was involved in helping out to make the event a success. Special mentions go out to the “swagman Daniel”, Rich, Claude, Lars, Jean-Frederic, Gris and Myrle! One thing we did start was the idea of getting people to ‘buy the ASF a coffee’ or ‘buy the ASF a beer’ to get people to think about donating 2 – 5 euro especially if any of the ASF projects had helped them in someway. This potentially could be something to look into for next time. By the way – I was hoarse from talking by the time I got back home! Looking forward to doing it all again next year if we get the chance. I'm happy to hear about any other FOSDEM experiences, feedback, thoughts, comments.

FOSDEM 2019 Update
Hi Everyone Last weekend FOSDEM was held in Brussels so wanted to post a quick update. FOSDEM weather is generally quite predictable (read that as bad!) and this time as well as rain, it snowed! Yet even with the bad weather, thousands of people made the effort to attend. Daniel flew in with our swag collection, I brought the banner and stickers. Normally we are on the first floor but this time we were located on the ground flow at the end of the row around from the reception. We arrived early on Saturday morning to setup the booth, and although things officially started at 10am, we had a crowd a few people deep, around the booth from 9.30am onwards ready to talk to us (or maybe they had seen our wonderful swag which included some very nice warm fleece hats :-) As well as the stickers and swag we also had a chrome book available for project demos and on Sunday we used it to run the video about Apache statistics. This was really useful for looking up project details and showing people where to get additional information. Our new location also meant that we had a lot of foot traffic and thanks to our booth volunteers, we managed to laugh, talk, joke and well as inform a lot more people about Apache, and Apache projects. We had queries ranging from incubator to how to foundation itself works. For the last couple of years, people had always been asking for Cassandra stickers so this time we had some – so this is when all the people wanting other stickers appeared and this years top request was Kafka followed by Commons and even Thrift! I told people that if we printed stickers for every single Apache project – the booth table would collapse! It was good to see a few projects represented at the booth – these included Beam, Httpd, Tomcat, Fineract, OFBiz, Kibble and Jena (Sorry if I’ve missed any!) and there were also a few Apache related talks on the schedule. Being at FOSDEM is great for outreach as well as the visibility of the Foundation and as a result we have been invited to participate at even more events. I’d really like to thank everyone that was involved in helping out to make the event a success. Special mentions go out to the “swagman Daniel”, Rich, Claude, Lars, Jean-Frederic, Gris and Myrle! One thing we did start was the idea of getting people to ‘buy the ASF a coffee’ or ‘buy the ASF a beer’ to get people to think about donating 2 – 5 euro especially if any of the ASF projects had helped them in someway. This potentially could be something to look into for next time. By the way – I was hoarse from talking by the time I got back home! Looking forward to doing it all again next year if we get the chance. I'm happy to hear about any other FOSDEM experiences, feedback, thoughts, comments.

FeatherCast Inteviews for FOSDEM 2019
Hi Everyone We are looking for interviewees…:-) I will be in Brussels attending both CHAOSSCon and FOSDEM and we will be available to record interviews for our podcast channel FeatherCast. https://feathercast.apache.org/ We are always wanting to speak to people who come along to our booth at events and also connect with the wider Apache community. We are keen to talk to anyone who has something they want to share. If you are presenting – it could be an interview about your talk, if you are attending, it could be what you have come to see. As a quick guide interviews tend to be around 5 minutes but can be longer if you have a more detailed topic. So if you are interested in taking part in an interview for FeatherCast then please let us know by responding to this thread If you are not sure what to expect during an interview then please feel free to listen to any of our previous interviews published on the site. Thanks Sharan - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org
FOSDEM 2019 Stand - Final information
Hullo folks, We've received the final information about our stand at FOSDEM this year, and it's a doozy: Unlike previous years, where we were located on the first floor (up them stairs), we will be on the GROUND FLOOR of the K building this year. This will mean a *LOT* of traffic to our booth, and also it will be warm there, so beware :). We will be at K1B-8 (K building, level 1, stands group B, position 8). Our cwiki page has been updated with this information, as well as the swag we will have available at our disposal - do go look at it. Booth staffers will be able to grab an ASF T-shirt (due to budgetary constraints this year, it will be unisex (no M/F tailored ones) and there is a very limited number of them). If you plan on either helping with generel ASF staffing, or want to showcase your project, please put your information on the cwiki page. With regards, Daniel. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org

Hi folks, We've been granted a stand at FOSDEM 2019 (2+3 February 2019 in Brussels at ULB), and as such we have now started setting up a page to track people, projects, swag etc. We don't quite know where the stand is yet, but we are expecting it to be 2nd floor of the K building as usual.

Re: FOSDEM 2019 BoF
Hi Isabel, thank you for responding. By "BoF" I mean birds of a feather[1] session. I believe there were in the past, and I presume there still are planned for FOSDEM 2019. These are informal sessions for people with common interest to get together and meet to discuss or work together. I (now) see that there is a conference planning software[2] using which I can just submit an event, I'm unsure if this is the way to ask/reserve for the venue and I can't find any explanation on how one does this. zoran [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birds_of_a_feather_(computing) [2] https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM19/ On Thu, Oct 18, 2018 at 1:26 PM, Isabel Drost-Fromm wrote: > Hi Zoran, > > On 18/10/2018 12:39, Zoran Regvart wrote: >> >> in the Camel project we're discussing a BoF session at the FOSDEM >> 2019.

To my knowledge FOSDEM does have - talks in main tracks, CfP still open, reviews done by the main org team - dev rooms, those are one or two day community organised tracks on specific topics, call for dev room topics IIRC has closed, dev rooms have been announced and are open for talk submissions. - people meeting independently for dinner during the conference at restaurants nearby, often focussed on specific topics - some events co-located but organised independently at the same weekend (or week before/after) at locations nearby like meetups and the like.

FOSDEM 2019 BoF
Hi, in the Camel project we're discussing a BoF session at the FOSDEM 2019. I've tried to reach out via the FOSDEM mailing list but got no reply. I know that other ASF project have had BoF sessions at FOSDEM can anyone point me to the right way of organizing one? thanks :) zoran -- Zoran Regvart - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org

Re: FOSDEM 2019
It might be worth explicitly copying the Open Office PMC on this note, since they have gotten grumpy in the past when they didn't know what our plans are.

FOSDEM 2019
Hi folks, I know it's a bit early still, but I've submitted our annual request for a stand at FOSDEM 2019, and will liaise along with Sharan on this when the time comes. We'll be notified on November 11th about the request status, though we'll likely start planning before then, on the assumption that we can get a stand.
