Subject: [eclipse.org-committers] RSVP Request: Eclipse Project Meetings
in September
Committers,
The ECLIPSE Foundation is hosting a Members Meeting on March
19th and 20th in Chicago, IL. We would like to
extend an invitation to Eclipse Projects who would like to hold a “Project
Meeting”, “Hackfest” or “Adopt-Fest” on either
the 19th or 20th. If you would like to hold a
meeting, the Foundation can provide meeting space and help integrate it with
the overall scope of the members meeting based on your needs.
**Please let us know ASAP if your project is interested,
space is limited.
***If you would like space, you must respond (even if
tentatively) by Friday, May 25th.
Here are some options to consider:
- Option 1 –
“Project Meeting” - We can offer and projects
who are interested space to host a project meeting on March
19th or
20th for the entire day or half day.
- Option 2 –
“Hackfest” – Offer projects support for hosting a
“hackfest” for their project, whereby
organizations could send
developers who are not committers [on the specific project]
to meet
committers of a project with some “code in hand”
on features they
would like to add to the project. A good way for
projects to pass on
knowledge to a community who may be interested in
contributing but
too new, inexperienced or scared to do so. We can help
recruit interested
parties.
- Option 3 –
“Adopt-fest” – Offer projects support to host
an “Adoption Fest”. For example, offering
to help organizations who
are trying to extend or build upon a project. We can
help recruit
interested parties.
We would also invite any interested projects to have a
table/demo
and/or poster during the meeting reception.
Cheers,
- Don
