| | #REDIRECT [[FUDCon:Berlin 2009]] |
| | |
| At FAD EMEA 2008, we made a short list of possible cities for FUDCon EMEA 2009. We would prefer to hold FUDCon EMEA 2009 no earlier than June, and no later than September.
| |
| | |
| Each city has an owner who is responsible for looking into initial organizational questions.
| |
| | |
| After phase 1, we will eliminate cities for which the logistics are impossible, and narrow down the options.
| |
| | |
| == Phase 1: Information Gathering ==
| |
| | |
| '''Deadline: January 30, 2009'''
| |
| | |
| By the deadline, please add any information that you have gathered. Refer to the [[FUDCon/Organization|FUDCon organization page]] for some of the requirements. For Phase 1, the most important requirements are:
| |
| * [[FUDCon/Organization#Facilities|Facilities]] -- is there a faciilty that can give us the infrastructure that we need for a FUDCon? This means 3 days worth of space, typically one large room (150-200) and 4 or 5 smaller rooms (20-30), as well as a general "lobby" area. Wifi is also essential.
| |
| * [[FUDCon/Organization#Lodging|Lodging]] -- is there a hotel that we can book for attendees, that is relatively close to the actual location? Is there public transportation? What are the prices like? Is there wifi included?
| |
| * Budget -- Keep in mind that the entire budget for the event (food, shirts, hotel subsidies, travel subsidies, etc.) will be about $20k USD (14k EUR). Also keep in mind that some of that money might be needed to help get Red Hat engineers from Stuttgart or Brno to the event, depending on where the event is. This will depend on what kind of budget is available for Red Hat engineers in Europe to travel to the event.
| |
| | |
| == Berlin ==
| |
| | |
| ''Owner: [[GeroldKassube]]''
| |
| | |
| This option is for FUDCon EMEA 2009 to be co-organized around [[FedoraEvents/LinuxTag/LinuxTag2009|LinuxTag 2009]]. We already have an idea of what this event might look like, due to work that Gerold and Marko Jung have already done.
| |
| | |
| == Stuttgart ==
| |
| | |
| ''Owner: [[ThomasWoerner]]''
| |
| | |
| For phase 1, we need information about FUDCon location, potential hotel information, and options for dates of the event. One of the benefits of this location is that several Red Hat engineers are already there.
| |
| | |
| == Netherlands ==
| |
| | |
| ''Owner: [[JeroenVanMeeuwen]]''
| |
| | |
| FUDCon would be either in Utrecht or Delft, both a short train ride from Amsterdam's airport. For phase 1, we need information about about FUDCon location, potential hotel information, and options for dates of the event.
| |
| | |
| == Basel ==
| |
| | |
| ''Owner: [[AndreasRau]]''
| |
| | |
| FUDCon would be at the University of Basel, since Andreas works there. For phase 1, we need to finalize the FUDCon location, potential hotel information, and options for dates of the event.
| |
| | |
| == Athens ==
| |
| | |
| ''Owner: [[DimitrisGlezos]]''
| |
| | |
| [[MaxSpevack]] suggested Athens as a potentially good location for a FUDCon, but needs to follow up with Dimitris to gauge interest.
| |
| | |
| First, we need to decide whether or not to keep Athens on the list. If so, then for phase 1, we need information about about FUDCon location, potential hotel information, and options for dates of the event.
| |
| | |
| == Brno ==
| |
| | |
| ''Owner: [[RadekVokal]]
| |
| | |
| After last year's success, returning to Brno is always an option. Max needs to speak with Radek to see if this is possible for 2009. For phase 1, we basically need to know if we can replicate last year's facilities and hotel, and what dates would be best.
| |
| | |
| The primary benefit of this location is that a great number of Red Hat engineers are in that location, and not all of them would be able to attend a FUDCon somewhere else.
