Fedora Activity Day

Format

  • BarCamp format
  • Timeframe between half a day to a day
  • Get as many people to talk
  • Topics can range from:
    • Fedora specific talks
    • Talks about applications or technologies available in Fedora repos
    • Programming/development with Fedora as its platform

Timeframe

We will need to do one within several months time, i'm thinking of setting the dateline as 3 months.

Venue

Venue wise, theres several options that i can think of, which easy to cater such event, considering its just a small event.

  • APIIT/UCTI
  • iTrain

Target audience

Target audience may range from normal end user to technical users/developers, though we should try promoting this event more to the technical guys because we will need people who can talk (its barcamp afterall). Normal end users should be targetted nonetheless, but that is not the priority (a barcamp which nobody talking is boring afterall).

Potential spam targets :P

  • Intel Malaysia - i heard they have a team doing stuff on Fedora there, but they are quite far north
  • Random small companies around KL - will need help in poking them, probably RH-MY have contacts. Sabrina might know several more.
  • Students - as usual

Number wise, I'm targeting around 20

Potential Topics

  • RH Cloud initiatives (cos RH launched a lot of technology at the Summit, maybe we can get Harish for this)
  • Hacking Gnome 3
  • Experience sharing on running Linux in enterprise environment
  • Pls add your potential topics here

Schedule Draft

Time Tasks
9am Door opens, participant registration starts, we can try providing some

tea/coffee or something (poke RH-MY?). Anybody who want to talk will need to register their topic and summary, and organizers will put them up on a wall or something.

10am Participant who are going to speak will need to start pitching their

talk to the audience. 1 minute is given to give a rough summary on what they are going to talk about. Attendees may then vote for talks they want to hear by ticking the topic posting at the wall.

10:30am Organizers will then gather the wall postings and organize them

according to category and popularity, and put them on the schedule wall, and separate by tracks

10:45am Event starts, organizer task is to ensure people doesnt exceed their

allocated time.

6pm Event end
