Meetups will be held Tuesday through Thursday evenings at ApacheCon NA 2011, this 7-11 November in Vancouver. Meetups are onsite, and are free to all - conference registration is not required to attend, and we hope to get plenty of local attendees too!
We're looking to our PMCs and project communities to come up with ideas for Meetups at ApacheCon! Please add your Meetup Proposal below, and email the ApacheCon planners at planners-2011-na@apachecon.com with your Meetup idea. The best way to get a Meetup going is to create your own wiki page (linked from here) with a detailed overview, proposed starting agenda, and signup sheet, and then promote that within your user community to gauge interest.
BarCamp Apache groups welcome - please check below to see if we still have space available for any follow-on Meetups you might want to schedule!

If you are hosting an Apache-related Meetup during the week of ApacheCon NA 2011 between 5th and the 12th November, please feel free to add the name, brief description, and a link to your Meetup page here. We would suggest that most Meetups try to occur during the 5 days of the Conference, but events on the weekends before and after can work too!
Read our detailed description of ApacheMeetups - they're similar to other Meetups, but focused on Apache projects or technologies - and they're often held in the evenings onsite at ApacheCon!
As well as the evening Meetups, there are a few other ways for projects to get involved, code, discuss and share.
If you're planning to do an open Hackathon at any point (i.e. one open to people who are not currently committers), please email the ApacheCon planners at planners-2011-na@apachecon.com to let us know. We can help advertise this, get a sign made up to direct people etc. Projects are encouraged to do this on the Monday, and it's a great way to draw in fresh blood to the project!
We have rooms available for meetups on the Lobby and 2nd Floors. To see the space available, and floor plans with size details, review:
The following rooms may be available:
The following rooms are in use at ApacheCon, but are not currently available for Meetups. If you really need an extra room on one night, contact planners-2011-na@apachecon.com to discuss your needs
