Big Feather Birthday Bash
...
Continuing the wildly successful tradition of MeetUps from ApacheCon Europe, we will open each night of the conference for FREE community Get Togethers GetTogethers and MeetUps. These Each of these will be focused on a specific community / technology and will be self-organized. In addition, we're hoping to have space for BoFs (Birds-of-a-Feather).
What about the CFPs
We still have them! The concom team received many excellent proposals. These have been reviewed and organized into potential conference tracks. However, we're holding these in reserve. Once we review the community events, we'll go back and fill in any remaining time with these sessions. If a PMC would like to see what's already been submitted, contact your concom representative.
Pricing and Logistics
We plan to keep the main registration fee as low as possible. Pricing for the event will be announced soon. Our hope is to accommodate the following:
- FREE events, including a two-day BarCamp and Hackathon and three evenings of MeetUps
- Training courses will continue to have a per-course fee
- Day-time content on Wed-Fri will require a registration fee
Featured Events
Based on the great success of previous events like the “OFBiz User Symposium” and “Hadoop Camp”, we plan to run project/technology-specific programming.
