Quick OSCON debrief
Hi, all;
Here is a completely unstructured list of thoughts/notes from OSCON before I hop on the plane home.
- HUGE thanks to Filip, Pono and Myrle for (wo)manning the booth. We had someone there pretty much at all times. This was a Very Good Thing(tm) because the traffic was relatively constant. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!
- Set up was straight forward. The tables were the right height, but the table cloth was significantly wider than the provided table. Filip took care of it with the ole military fold/tuck bed making maneuver since druggeri's tape attempt was a complete failure (but a cute effort none-the-less). The table cloth took a direct hit from a coffee spill, so I am taking it home and will see if we can return it its former glory before sending it to Virtual for storage.
- The roller banners and remaining flyers were sent to Tom @virtual for storage. I will update wiki doco on where this stuff is.
- The caps on the top bar of the roller banners are finicky. If they fall off (as they are wont to do during tear down handling), the full length of the banner will pull itself inside the aluminum housing thus rendering the whole thing useful only as a blunt weapon and/or trip hazard. The noise will announce to all around that your day just became a little bit crappier. Field repairs were performed with a philips screwdriver I was able to track down. I suggest we gorilla glue those suckers on there.
- I could have done a much better job of procuring and bringing swag. Half the stickers were completely wiped out in the first 20 minutes of the expo hall being open. It wasn't all bad, actually, because we were about as equivalently stocked as the other non for profits in the row. This will turn into a "default booth load out" Wiki article or equivalent to prevent the problem in the future.
- Pono brought a handful of project stickers on day two to augment the swag collection. Several of them survived the expo hall onslaught, but we are effectively depleted of swag from this event + GOTO and have nearly no leftovers worth mentioning.
- Our booth was directly across from the NSA's booth so, for once, we were able to watch them while they watched us. Joking aside, I was able to pitch the idea to one of their engineers of pushing his personal project through the incubator because it was a very, very interesting idea and I would personally love to see it grow.
- We had tons of booth visitors. Everyone from folks saying, "Thanks for what you do!" to, "What is an Apache and how can I?" stopped by. One visitor that was particularly interesting was a man seeking advice for creating his own software foundation in support of his project. We begged him not to put himself through that, and he seemed possibly interested in the software going through the incubator, but only time will tell.
- Filip was our "booth babe". After discussion, it was determined this is an inside joke and not a CoC violation.
- Pono and druggeri invented the clever idea of adding a request to the site verification tool for each project to have a projectname.apache.org/logo.png file to make the job of assembling the logo banners easier and to fix the few white space overlaps. It would also be handy to add color/personalization to project info in p.a.o
- The Tomcat project should be renamed Waldo. We searched and searched for it's logo in the logo banner but couldn't find it.
- Pono and druggeri invented the idea of having a http://random.apache.org URL that will redirect people to a random project site for discovery and browsing (like Wikipedia's random article button or reddit's rand subreddit link)
- druggeri was able to shake hands and say thanks to a few sponsors (even posing for a selfie with one). Follow-up with Zaheda at AWS is needed.
All in all, this was a good event. I am glad we could participate since the non-for-profit booths did not come at a cost other than volunteer time this year.

One additional note -- everyone wants the large just-feather stickers, so
probably worth making more.

Thanks Daniel for the detailed (funny) info and ideas :)
Thank you too Filip, Pono and Myrle

Website staging repo:
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/infrastructure/site/trunk/content/img/
It's a pubsub system, but still uses the CMS, so I can't remember if you
always have to force it to push the commit to production separately:
https://www.apache.org/dev/infra-site.html
Note only ASF members have access to push to production.

How do we put/update the images there?

For several months, I watched the featured projects on
http://www.apache.org/ and added in a logo when one was missing. I
stopped doing that when I wasn't seeing any more missing for a few
weeks. I'm sure there are still some missing. That's an easy way for
anyone to help out in a small way.

All projects are supposed to put a smallish-sized jpg|png logo into
a.o/img so that they can be included in the randomized carousel on the
a.o homepage under Featured Projects section. Most projects do so. The
name must be just projectname.png or .jpg so that the script(s) work.
Note however most of those images are pretty small graphics -
double-check if they are sufficient quality for whatever print needs
there are.
It would be nice to have a standardized place where every TLP could
provide a standardized listing of logo assets they have available (i.e.
including B&W, different sizes, etc.) but that would be a fair amount of
work to populate.
Relevant Whimsy code that checks /img - this can be easily used to see
which projects have submitted a logo already.

Filip took care of it with the ole military fold/tuck bed making maneuver since druggeri's tape attempt was a complete failure (but a cute effort none-the-less). The table cloth took a direct hit from a coffee spill, so I am taking it home and will see if we can return it its former glory before sending it to Virtual for storage.

> - The caps on the top bar of the roller banners are finicky. If they fall off (as they are wont to do during tear down handling), the full length of the banner will pull itself inside the aluminum housing thus rendering the whole thing useful only as a blunt weapon and/or trip hazard. The noise will announce to all around that your day just became a little bit crappier. Field repairs were performed with a philips screwdriver I was able to track down. I suggest we gorilla glue those suckers on there.
> - I could have done a much better job of procuring and bringing swag. Half the stickers were completely wiped out in the first 20 minutes of the expo hall being open. It wasn't all bad, actually, because we were about as equivalently stocked as the other non for profits in the row. This will turn into a "default booth load out" Wiki article or equivalent to prevent the problem in the future.
> - Pono brought a handful of project stickers on day two to augment the swag collection. Several of them survived the expo hall onslaught, but we are effectively depleted of swag from this event + GOTO and have nearly no leftovers worth mentioning.
> - Our booth was directly across from the NSA's booth so, for once, we were able to watch them while they watched us. Joking aside, I was able to pitch the idea to one of their engineers of pushing his personal project through the incubator because it was a very, very interesting idea and I would personally love to see it grow.
> - We had tons of booth visitors. Everyone from folks saying, "Thanks for what you do!" to, "What is an Apache and how can I?" stopped by. One visitor that was particularly interesting was a man seeking advice for creating his own software foundation in support of his project. We begged him not to put himself through that, and he seemed possibly interested in the software going through the incubator, but only time will tell.
> - Filip was our "booth babe". After discussion, it was determined this is an inside joke and not a CoC violation.
> - Pono and druggeri invented the clever idea of adding a request to the site verification tool for each project to have a projectname.apache.org/logo.png file to make the job of assembling the logo banners easier and to fix the few white space overlaps.

Whimsy site checker already looks for an image here:
https://www.apache.org/img/
Would that be sufficient?
> - The Tomcat project should be renamed Waldo. We searched and searched for it's logo in the logo banner but couldn't find it.
> - Pono and druggeri invented the idea of having a http://random.apache.org URL that will redirect people to a random project site for discovery and browsing (like Wikipedia's random article button or reddit's rand subreddit link)
> - druggeri was able to shake hands and say thanks to a few sponsors (even posing for a selfie with one). Follow-up with Zaheda at AWS is needed.
