I'm more than willing to help out with this, but I don't want to do it alone. I agree a team would be imperative here. Show of hands, anyone? On 2018-01-29 09:19, Benjamin Kerensa wrote: > I’m thinking it might be too late now as I look at events already in > planned for OSCON it seems most have s

I’m thinking it might be too late now as I look at events already in planned for OSCON it seems most have speakers booked and their events planned out. If we wanted to do one later in the year we could be more successful but we’d need a dedicated team of volunteers that can take time off from scho

I get the feeling like Ben has a better sense as to what we need. If I have a breakdown of costs, I'll gladly pitch it to Canonical. How else can I help? On Mon, Jan 29, 2018 at 08:37:19AM -0800, Cody Smith wrote: > I can't speak for everyone else, but at least those of us in Salem are > intereste

For both yes but the UbuCon will take a lot of work and we’d need significant funding for sound gear, food, etc. If we do an UbuCon we might want to plan it the weekend before OSCON next year so people can attend. Let’s setup a meeting to brainstorm and identify needs and costs and we can pitch t

That reminds me, last month it was brought up at an Ubuntu Hour that a release party might be called for for 18.04, not sure if it's related to the above email, but in my head it's at least tangentially related. I figure we should start getting the ball rolling now. --c_smith On Fri, Nov 3, 2017
