Re: [eclipse.org-eclipsecon-program-committee] A bit about the Code Camps from last year

Chris,

How about Bug Day at EclipseCon?  That gives participants something to work on but limits the amount of additional effort required to make it work.  We might try to schedule/stagger the bug days, so that the bug days were coordinated with the main stage presentations and the code camps.

Hopefully we are not building a logistics nightmare.

Sorry I joined the call late, but I joined around the time we were talking about expanding the code camps.

The code camps were great last year if you needed a place with power, coffee and peace :)

In my opinion, the original objective of getting people together to hack on things didn't work out well. This was mostly, in my opinion, a lack of organization on our part. Last year, we simply just said there was going to be a code camp and expected people to show up. This year, we should aim to utilize the space more by:
     - having some type of schedule or even a track as suggested on the call that is staffed by people from certain projects
     - allow people giving talks to elect to use the room as a place to further discussions after a talk is completed (this should be made well known to presenters)

Other than that, don't remove the limitless supply of coffee :P

Thoughts?
