Re: ApacheCON NA 2010 BOF/Meetup: A new Social/Widget/Gadget Portal Project?

Ate,

This does look interesting! I would love to attend, but unfortunately,
I've got other commitments next week. Hopefully, someone else from the
OpenSocial community is able to attend.

I've also cross posted this on the Shindig list to see if there's
anyone going from there.

Regardless, when you update the page with notes, etc... would you ping
here again so we can keep the conversation going?

Thanks,

-Mark W.

Yes, the COIN project certainly looks very cool.

Indeed!
I think there are several projects out there which have many similar/overlapping (base) features which might benefit from a joined/shared 
community effort.

As Mark suggested, lets find a time/place to chat and meet to discuss such shared interests and goals.
Maybe my proposal for a meetup at the ApacheCON/Atlanta was a bit too short notice but we'll see :)
The OpenSocial meetup early December in Utrecht looks like a good next opportunity, great!

Hi Mark, Ate,

I think both of you will be at the Utrecht OpenSocial Meeting
(<http://blog.opensocial.org/2010/10/first-european-opensocial-event-in.html>),
right? I'd like to join in on the conversation as well. When we launch
our platform (end of this year) we will have a rather advanced portal
that is also mostly in sync with Shindig 2.0.0. We have a strong focus
on the 'formal' use of groups for collaboration, we have osapi and oAuth
support, advanced placing, handling and sharing of gadgets and we also
added SAML based authentication. Some screenshots can be found here:
<http://projectcoin.surfnet.nl/2010/09/visual-designs-coin-reference-portal/>
We are also looking at bringing this into an open source license (most
likely Apache 2.0) and hopefully have a community around that as well.

It seems we have similar goals here ;)

Cheers,
Niels van Dijk

Ate,

Let's make a point of finding a time/place to chat. Are there folks either
in NC or CA? If so, I'm sure we could get a group together to start this
discussion. What about other conferences? Anything on your list? (We've got
the OpenSocial event in Europe coming up in early December.)

Hi Mark,

Too bad you can't attend, but I'm aware of the OpenSocial Enterprise meetup happing next week as well.
If not for the ApacheCON I might have been interested to join that meeting instead.
Well, some other time surely.
I'd like to start participating on the OpenSocial and Shindig groups shortly anyway.

About our meetup, I'll provide a follow up afterwards and send a notify here as well.

Regards,

Ate
