From padre.claudio at apt-get.be Mon Dec 5 12:19:57 2011 From: padre.claudio at apt-get.be (Claudio Ramirez) Date: Mon, 5 Dec 2011 21:19:57 +0100 Subject: [Vlaanderen] Draft for call for speakers @ FOSDEM Message-ID: Hi, This is the draft of the call for speakers for FOSDEM 2012. Please give your comments, corrections and ideas regarding this texts. Specifically, I would very much appreciate your input regarding dates, deadlines and subjects of talks. Additionally, I am not too sure about the sponsoring part. We can remove it altogether for the text. Claudio ________________________________________ THIS IS A DRAFT AND NOT THE DEFINTIVE CALL FOR SPEAKERS. Taking place in the beautiful city of Brussels (Belgium), FOSDEM is the biggest free and non-commercial European event organized by and for the community. Its goal is to provide Free and Open Source developers a place to meet (see http://fosdem.org/2012/). Two years ago, the Perl community was for the first time present at FOSDEM. Our presence ?a booth? was very successful. It boosted our confidence and the following year we came back with a bigger group, a bigger stand and --for the first time-- a dev-room. The talks were varied, interesting... and well attended. For this upcoming edition (2012), our dev-room request has been approved (the stand request is still pending and we foresee no problems there). The stand will be open throughout the weekend. The dev-room event will take place Sunday February 5th 2012 , between 9 and 17h. We, the Perl community, are free to spent our time in the dev-room as we see fit (of course respecting the frame of Free and Open Source software). The room itself has 81 seats, WIFI and a VGA projector. This environment, being a university classroom with raised seats, lends itself perfectly for talks and classes. This is a wonderful opportunity to present your Perl project ?big and small? or teach about subjects you care about. We are looking for a variety of subjects on all levels: starter and advanced, generic and specialised, core internals and CPAN. We have 8 hours time, so we have the flexibility of using different time formats: e.g. lightnings talks of 20 minutes, more classic talks of 40 minutes or longer, and classes of 1 hour (or longer, depending on the complexity). Please don't doubt to send a proposal (information about yourself, subject, short description and time needed) if you think you have the material. If you have several subjects you are enthusiastic to talk about please send alternative proposals. In the case more than one talk is not selected, your proposal will help us when putting the schedule together and even have ?backup? talks in case someone cancels. Please send your talk or class proposal before January 6th, 2012. We will confirm the talk/course as soon as possible, with Saturday 2012-01-21 being our own deadline to send our schedule to the FOSDEM organizer. Claudio Ramirez (nxadm, padre.claudio at apt-get.be) and the Belgian Perl Mongers. NB: This is a community event without sponsoring. We don't have the means to pay for your trip and time. If you want to sponsor part of the event, please feel free to contact us. THIS IS A DRAFT AND NOT THE DEFINITIVE CALL FOR SPEAKERS. _____________________________________ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[English version follows the dutch text] Amsterdam.pm staat voor de "Amsterdamse Perl Mongers", een groep van gebruikers van Perl. In tegenstelling tot wat de naam suggereert is Amsterdam.pm niet beperkt tot alleen Amsterdam, maar functioneert ook als de algemene Nederlandse gebruikersgroep. Iedereen die gelegenheid heeft is welkom, ook al bent u al bij Alphen.pm, Nijmegen.pm, Rotterdam.pm, Echt.pm, Exloo.pm, Groningen.pm of Wageningen.pm op bezoek geweest. Amsterdam.pm organiseert informele bijeenkomsten waar Perl gebruikers kunnen samenkomen en informatie en gebruikservaringen met betrekking tot Perl kunnen uitwisselen. De bijeenkomsten vinden normaliter plaats op elke eerste dinsdag van de maand. Zoals gebruikelijk voor dit soort bijeenkomsten is er ook hier gelegenheid tot CAcert certificering en het uitwisselen van PGP keys. De voertaal binnen Amsterdam.pm is in principe Nederlands, maar indien nodig zal Engels worden gebruikt, b.v. om te communiceren met niet-Nederlandssprekende aanwezigen. De eerstvolgende bijeenkomst vindt plaats op dinsdag 6 december 20:00 tot 22:30 uur in "Toast!", Hof 38, 3811CK Amersfoort (zie http://www.mijneigenbar.nl ). Er zijn veel parkeergarages rondom het centrum, de meeste binnen vijf minuten lopen van deze gelegenheid. Kom je met de trein, dan is het zo'n 15 minuutjes wandelen. Ga het station uit naar links. Na een groot kruispunt rechtdoor de stad in (Molenstraat) Je ziet dan in de verte de toren van de St. Joriskerk, naast Toast! Onder een gebouw door enz... totdat je op een gracht stuit. Daar even naar rechts en het smalle bruggetje over... verder weer rechtdoor. Twee straten verder is aan de rechtkant een plein met de kerk. Aan de overkant van dat plein moet je zijn. Vooraf is gereserveerd voor 10 tot 15 personen bij San Giorgio (zie http://www.sangiorgio.nl ) Krommestraat 44, 3811CD Amersfoort. Aanvang 18u30. Heel dicht bij parkeergarage "Stadhuisplein". Voor wandelaars: de eerste straat na het smalle bruggetje links. [English version] Amsterdam.pm stands for the Amsterdam Perl Mongers. We're basically a Perl user group. Despite its name, it is not local to the Amsterdam environment, but it welcomes Perl mongers from all over the Netherlands. Amsterdam.pm organises informal meetings where Perl users can meet, and exchange information and experiences with regard to using Perl. The meetings are normally held every first Tuesday of the month. As conventional for these kind of meetings, there is also an opportunity to get CAcert certified, and to exchange PGP keys. Although the preferred language for communication is Dutch, English will be spoken if necessary. Our next meeting is Tuesday, December 6, from 20:00 till 22:30 in caf? "Toast!", Hof 38, 3811CK Amersfoort (see http://www.mijneigenbar.nl ) You are invited to join us for a pre-meeting meal at San Giorgio, http://www.sangiorgio.nl Krommestraat 44, 3811CD Amersfoort. Parking "Stadhuisplein" is the closest. _______________________________________________ NOTE: Any disclaimer in this message is NULL and VOID. You may ignore it.

Kan ik hieruit besluiten dat het op een andere dag wel zou kunnen? Ik zou stilletjes aan de call for speakers voor Fosdem willen rondsturen, heeft iemand nog opmerkingen (eric heeft al een aantal gegeven)?

Its goal is to provide Free and Open Source developers a place to meet (see http://fosdem.org/2012/). Over the last years the Perl community had an increasing presence at FOSDEM. Last year we managed to have both a booth and a dev-room. We collected an impressive positive return and wish to renew the experience. Our dev-room request for this upcoming edition (2012) has already been approved (the stand request is still pending but we foresee no problems there). The stand will be open throughout the weekend. The dev-room event will take place Sunday February 5th 2012 , between 9 and 17h. The room itself has 81 seats, WIFI and a VGA projector.

We have 8 hours time, so we have the flexibility of using different time formats: e.g. talks of 20 minutes, more classic talks of 40 minutes or longer (although we learned from experience that longer talks should be split into slices of 20 or 40 minutes). Please don?t doubt to send a proposal (information about yourself, subject, short description and time needed). If you have several subjects you are enthusiastic to talk about please send alternative proposals. In the case more than one talk is not selected, your proposal will help us when putting the schedule together and even have ?backup? talks in case someone cancels. Also mention your time constraints (if any). Please send your talk proposal by e-mail to the address below before January 11th, 2012. After an evaluation period we will submit a definitive schedule on Saturday 2012-01-21 to the FOSDEM organizers. Please forward distribute this call as wide as possible (certainly to your local mongers). You can link to this page, url: http://nxadm.wordpress.com/2011/12/21/perlfosdem2012-cfs/.
