Hi all, I like to share with you the message below from the Executive V.P. of the ASF regarding the Apachecon event. Please take notice and act on it. It will surely help spread the word about our project and its works.
Again I present you the url for the schedule of the OFBiz talks at the Apachecon EU 2014 event to be held in Budapest from Nov 17th till Nov 21st, 2014. https://apacheconeu2014.sched.org/overview/type/ofbiz If you can not make it to this event in Europe and you are living in the US, there will be an Apachecon event in Austin, TX, USA in April 2014. Best regards, Pierre Smits *ORRTIZ.COM <http://www.orrtiz.com>* Services & Solutions for Cloud- Based Manufacturing, Professional Services and Retail & Trade http://www.orrtiz.com ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Rich Bowen <rbo...@rcbowen.com> Date: Fri, Sep 19, 2014 at 3:37 PM Subject: ApacheCon - How you can help To: d...@community.apache.org Here's the most important ways that you can help with ApacheCon EU right now, in order of importance. * If you are involved in an Apache project that has content at ApacheCon, send messages to your users@ and dev@ list telling them about that content, and telling people that they need to be there. Tell them specifically what talks they need to come for, and what developers they'll get to hang out with at the event. Tell them that they are doing their career a disservice if they don't come to this event. Remind them that committers have a deep discount, so if they're not committers now, here's a *great* reason for them to get on that train for next time. Remind the US audience that if they can't make it to Budapest, they should plan to come to Austin in April. * Reach out to other audiences - Twitter, Facebook, and G+, certainly, but also other non-Apache projects you're involved with that have strong overlap with our content. Again, mention specific talks and people that will be at the event. * If your company cares about or relies on any Apache technology, encourage them to sponsor the event and/or send an employee to the event. Remind them that it's about more than just the technical content - they will get to have first-hand contact with the people that develop the software, and become part of that community, with the possibility to participate in shaping the future of that product. If there's a spark of interest in sponsorship, have them get in touch with me - rbo...@apache.org - and we'll take it from there. * Follow and retweet the @apachecon account. -- rbo...@apache.org http://apache.org/
