Folks -
As thoughts turn toward OOPSLA, I thought it would be good to align our chaoic processes prior to the conference (10/27-30, more or less).
Who Will be There?
I don't know how to do this without clogging the mail list, but if you will send a message TO ME, then I will gather a list and make it known. If someone thinks it appropriate, then put an attendance list on the SWIKI and send a link for people to sign up. If this happens part way through, I'll put my list there.
Birds of a Feather Session
I had not seen any announcements regarding BoFs this year. Since I was worried, John Maloney wrote to Bjorn about it and Bjorn replied...
-------
As for the BoFs, hmm, I'll see why they are not mentioned. They should be -
we have rooms scheduled, times allocated, etc. We hope people will be
having BoFs. We're not going to allow them to be pre-scheduled (there was a
problem with companies using them for sales pitches), but we will be having
them. Let him know that BoFs are in.
-------
We have never pre-scheduled, but usually we do decide when we want to have it, and some early bird posts it at registration time. So, when to do it... I think we have a tradition of doing it just after supper (ie 7:30-ish) the night before the "social event", unless it conflicts with something else we like. I therefore propose 7:30pm on Tuesday, just for purposes of discussion.
Camp Smalltalk
Is there a plan to have one, and is there anything more to do in preparation?
Other Issues
Anything else to bring up in preparation for a probably significant gathering?
Looking forward to seeing you all there
