Hi Doug,
It's not easy to plan/organize the CDT summit in the middle
of summer for a date in Sept/Oct:
- many people are on vacation, it's hard to
get developers to register;
- organizing the logistic in the middle of summer was
not easy for us last year again because of many people on vacations and it
was hard to get big conf room for Sept;
- in July many people are already booked
for business trips in the fall e.g. myself, Elena, Marc, etc. if
know more in advanced it will be easier to plan around the summit
date;
- fall is a busy time of the year for many people,
May/June is the Eclipse release crunch and March is
EclipseCon...;
To get more developers to join the summit we
could either:
- do the plan/organization after the Eclipse release
and held the summit in Dec/Jan
- do the plan/org in May and held the
summit in Sept/Oct
Best Regards,
Dominique
Hey gang,
Just a reminder to sign up for CDT Summit 2011 at http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/summitfall2011.
Notice a few signed up already. The more that show interest, the more we’ll
realize we really need to have one again J.
Cheers,
Doug.
