Anyone able to help with an ACNA small community event?
Hi All
As you hopefully all know, ApacheCon North America is in Portland in Feb
2013, about 2 months off. We have the space for a number of small
community events to take place before, during and after. We're looking
for people to help with these events, either leading them, or assisting to
learn.
If you're thinking of running your own small event, and you'll be in
Portland, helping out under the mentorship of someone experienced is a
great way to build your skills and confidence for your own things back
home afterwards, so I do encourage you to get involved! If you've done
events before, we'd love for you to help run things, and mentor people to
share the skills / knowledge / experience!
The following events are penciled in, and need both a lead and assistant
helpers:
* Sunday BarCampApache (open to all, whole day)
* Monday Hackathon (similar to in Sinsheim, open to committers and
interested people alike, many projects welcoming new involvement)
* Tuesday - Thursday "early evening" events - between the last talk and
dinner, likely things such as a multi-day mini BarCamp, lightning
talks, ignite talks etc
* Tuesday - Thursday evening events (8pm onwards) - project specific
and area specific BoFs, meetups etc
* Friday and Saturday project-specific large hackathons
Anyone able to help out? If anything catches your eye, please reply to say
what. We can then list you on the wiki in the appropriate role, and we can
then get you started with what you need to do to help organise your part!
Thanks
Nick

Ah, one other thing while I think of it. If you'd like to help out with
any of these events, and you're not currently on the wiki allow list
<http://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/ContributorsGroup>, please create an
account on the apachecon wiki and let us know your username. We'll need to

Thanks, great start!
It still needs some more info and filling out, if people have time?
http://barcamp.org/BarCampApacheOxford might be a good one to crib from
Steve - do we know where we'll be hosting it yet?
Thanks

Hi,
Finally got around to sorting out the barcamp page:
http://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/BarCampApachePortland
And added a lanyrd page:
http://lanyrd.com/2013/apachebarcamp/
Thanks,
Justin

Hi,
I'll take a look tomorrow (my time). I've used lanyard before and have an account so that part should be simple.

Is anyone able to tackle this? As per my earlier email, we need:

Thanks!
I've created initial wiki pages for everything, linked from
http://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/CommunityEventsNA13 and
http://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/FrontPage
The main two that need work initially are the BarCamp page, and the early
evening events.
For the BarCamp one, I'd suggest people bring over a lot of the info from
the past BarCampApache pages on barcamp.org to our wiki page for it, then
add/edit a stub barcamp.org page to point people at our new official event
one on wiki.apache.org, then knock up a lanyrd page for the barcamp. Shout
if any of that isn't clear!
Thanks
Nick

evening BoF. I'll do anything you like to help out.
