Re: Apachecon in budapest ?
Looking at the schedule (http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/apachecon-europe/program/schedule) I realized this conference is basically monday-wednesday, which is good because I find a full week of conference attendance too much. I have some other engagements on the specific monday which I need to reschedule, which can't be done until mid-august. So negociations are forthcoming :) Does anyone know if there are any specific scheduling constraints that are customary at apachecon ? (Like don't miss the party on wednesday night...). I figured I'd arrive early on sunday to do some tourism - (i hear there's a lot of nice pubs in budapest.)

AW: Apachecon in budapest ?
Hi, I have to admit I enjoy the meetups with other Apache guys most. Especially the talks you have in the Hotel lobby after the sessions have ended or on one of the numerous after-conference events (Usually a booth crawl and some sponsored evening events will take place). When attending to the normal conference program you usually get what you expect, as you select the talks according to your interests. But it's the evening events you get to know other Apache guys and end up with tons of new ideas and projects you never heard of and want to start investing your time in. Usually after the third conference day are workshos and a brainstorming get-together-unconference-thingy where you discuss all sorts of Apache related things with other Apache guys that I wouldn't want to miss. The ApacheCon US 2014 was the first time I visited the Un-Conference and it was absoluteley worth the time. My recommendation is to take the offer to stay in the conference hotel and to stay at least for the fourth day at the ApacheCon.

Re: Apachecon in budapest ?
Ok, I'll setup a hangout for http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingdetails.html?year=2014month=6day=25hour=15min=0sec=0p1=224p2=250p3=136p4=166 and we'll see how that works. Concretely let's try and talk about the POM 5.0 model, and I might try and do a little demo of the Maven dev tooling in Eclipse. In the hangout we can figure out what we want to talk about next, or maybe we just continue with POM 5.0 until it's sorted. If anyone wants to put some thoughts together we can probably figure out how to hand over control to various presenters. We'll figure it out as we go, it will be completely informal.

I can't attend it, but +1. ^_^ Things are changing faster. Maven need to change also.

(dependency resolution strategy should be plug-able instead hard-coded) 5. think about parallel distributed Regards Simon 2014-06-11 17:08 GMT+08:00 Tamás Cservenák ta...@cservenak.net: +1 thanks, ~t~ (mobile) On Jun 11, 2014 7:54 AM, Kristian Rosenvold kristian.rosenv...@gmail.com wrote: I've been considering attending apachecon in Budapest, and I would be really interested in creating a meet up to discuss future maven (for one or more days).

Re: Apachecon in budapest ?
+1 for hangouts. As much as I'd love to see the city and finally have a drink with Tamas, I almost certainly won't be able to come to Budapest. I am not sure I will be able to attend weekly hangouts (or bi-weekly or any scheduled, really) but if somebody works on a specific feature I am interested in, I will try to make time. This means agenda of the meeting has to be provided upfront and ideally there should be specific proposal to seed the discussion. -- Regards, Igor On 2014-06-11, 9:32, Jason van Zyl wrote: Generally in the last 13 years these types of meetings have resulted in very little other than people who are being paid to work on Maven.

Re: Apachecon in budapest ?
+1 for hangouts. Jenkins tries to have a weekly project meeting (on IRC) and I think it is a good opportunity to discuss, involve contributors and follow the progress of the project (not only the code itself). Just don't forget one thing : Everyone doesn't speak english fluently and with the quality of hangout (or any other video/voice service) it cannot be always easy to attend such meeting. The most important parts are I think : * to schedule a recurring event to allow people to organize themselves to attend to it (even if it's not every week) * to have a light report/followup to be able to know what happened for all people who didn't join (that's why ML were preferred : async + history) Cheers On Wed, Jun 11, 2014 at 3:53 PM, Igor Fedorenko i...@ifedorenko.com wrote: +1 for hangouts.

A regular Maven hangout would be great. I have been contemplating doing that for the android maven plugin community alone for a while already.

Re: Apachecon in budapest ?
I'd like to try to attend too: not sure I'll be able, need to study more precisely the cost (which will be high, I already know it) face to face can help more frequent hangouts are a good idea too: combining both would be ideal :) Regards, Hervé Le mercredi 11 juin 2014 11:08:47 Tamás Cservenák a écrit : +1 thanks, ~t~ (mobile) On Jun 11, 2014 7:54 AM, Kristian Rosenvold kristian.rosenv...@gmail.com wrote: I've been considering attending apachecon in Budapest, and I would be really interested in creating a meet up to discuss future maven (for one or more days).

If no one is working on basic maintenance and bug fixing then I highly doubt anything bigger is going to change. As far as I know no-one is vacuuming the market for employing maven devs these days, so the chances for getting such a job by attending apachecon is probably close to zero. I'm not suggesting we change the world, I just think it would be a nice thing to do. Neither am I suggesting a project as such but if such a thing was to happen I would definitely want some kind of predefined agenda and maybe even some prepared materials - not just beer drinking. I am not impressed by the lack of evolution in maven, which also basically includes every side project I've seen up to date - including efforts outside apache. However, I do think that talking with others is orders of magnitude more productive than mailing lists, but we can start doing this today with a Google hangout. Having face-to-face meetings more often and discussing changes I think would be a positive step forward and doesn't require traveling around the world to accomplish. There is no either/or. You can have your hangouts, I'll still see if there's interest in meeting up at apachecon. The cost is significant, and I am also unsure about the overall schedule/value of a whole week's worth of conferencing. But I'll leave that consideration until the agenda starts showing up.
