Subject: PMC Invitation to Participate in ApacheCon 2009/US
To: All Apache PMCs <pm...@apache.org>
Project Management Committees,
For this 10th Year of the Apache Software Foundation, the Conference
Planning Committee and Stone Circle Productions are infusing ApacheCon
US 2009 with the same Community Spirit that guides our Open Source
Communities themselves. With the goal of creating the most successful
ApacheCon to-date, we are seeking the support of each ASF Community to
help drive their content for the 3-day conference. As the PMC, we
invite you to come forward with content based on the needs of your
user community.
First: Decide as a project, how much time you would like to fill with
commercially viable content. Do you need a half-day or a full-day to
achieve a professional, quality program? Don't restrict yourselves to
presentations by the PMC members or past speakers. You are likely
familiar with other committers, the members of your user community,
published authors and others who would offer effective sessions.
Consider involving the community in this process through either the
dev or users list, as appropriate for your project. Identifying the
exact contents and schedule of your program will come in a 2nd phase.
Note: If you believe your track is better presented in tandem with
other project(s), and you would like to work together as a small group
of related projects to create a unified track, please discuss this
with the other project(s) and offer one proposal you all agree upon to
the Planners.
Second: Identify your consumers. Please explain to the Planners, in
your submission, who your attendees would be. Are they web content
authors or developers, or backend infrastructure adopters, integrators
or administrators? Are they technical or novice individuals,
management or general users?
Third: Communicate your interest to planners-2009-us@apachecon.com no
later than April 21st!
The Planners will get back to you by April 28th to share the general
program schedule, and where your project best fits. You will be
provided a mentor who will forward to you the CFP's which made the
first cut of talk selections. Your community will then have two weeks
to create a schedule on a Wiki page. Again, be creative, and keep in
mind there are several opportunities for content beyond the programmed
track: MeetUps, BOFs, symposiums, un-conference style activities, etc.
In four weeks, the Planners will complete a review of the programming,
offer final feedback, cut programming that doesn't fit into the formal
tracks of the program, and finally attempt to fit all of the programming
into space available. Your mentor is there to help you avoid this cut
and guide you in creating a professional and marketable track!
Should a PMC choose not to participate in this process, but there are still
compelling presentations about that particular project, the Planners may
choose to run that track. Speaker acceptance/rejections will be sent out
in five weeks, once all decisions are made. All projects, participating
in this program or not, will have opportunities to get more involved with
the conference. These will be announced over the coming months.
We look forward to your PMC's response!
Yours,
The ApacheCon 2009 US Planning Team

Done, I'd appreciate if others could jump and help with the target audience.

We need to provide the contents for the half day Tuscany track, let's
collaborate on this thread and in [1] to provide a list of abstracts
and the target audience for the ApacheCon planners ASAP.
I'll add the two abstracts I have already submitted with Raymond in the morning.

The conference is in November so hopefully by then or around then the OASIS
specs would be final and we may even have a final Tuscany 2.0 release so it
would be good to make a lot of noise about those. And as a side thought i
wonder if we could use the OASIS specs as an opportunity to get together
with other projects and people related to SCA to promote SCA as a group?
(i'll go ask around if there's been any talk of something like that yet)

This would be a great opportunity to showcase the current status of
Tuscany. While Raymond and myself have already submitted abstracts for
ApacheCon US 2009, we could probably re-arrange the contents and
propose a 1/2 day track for the conference where we could discuss SCA
Composition/Assembly, Enterprise Integration and Web 2.0 Integration.
Current Submitted Abstracts:
- SCA, JavaEE, Spring and Web 2.0 come together - Service assembly
with Apache Tuscany SCA
- Tuscany: Applying OSGi Modularity after the fact
Thoughts ?
BTW, I have notified the ApacheCon 2009 US Planning Team of our
interest, pending the contents of the track.
