Re: [eclipsecon-na-program-committee] Call for Papers and Keynote Update

[John Arthorne <John_Arthorne@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry I missed the call today everyone.
I got a call from my kid's school and he was feeling sick so I had to dash
off and pick him up (nothing too serious). I will look through the minutes
and make sure I am caught up.

+1 from me for Limor Fried as well.
I find it a bit embarrassing that we have never had a female keynote speaker
at EclipseCon and the subject also looks cool. Actually all of Cedric's
suggestions below look good to me.

Cedric,
 
Thanks for these. Fwiw, I
really like the Limor Fried idea. The video of her is really good.

I'm throwing a few more ideas for
keynotes :

- Somebody from Square, they have an interesting take on OSS. (see http://square.github.io/)
- Misko Hevery from AngularJS : a framework with a huge bump of popularity
and on the other hand Misko gave a lot of talk about testing and code quality
in Java (you can watch some of them there . http://misko.hevery.com/about/
)
- Limor Fried from Adafruit : open-source hardware and DIY ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9b_K2kmCTDI
 Adafruit's Limor Fried on Building a Hardware Company in the US |
Disrupt NY 2013)

Thanks for the update Ian. 
 
Here is what I think we need to
cover tomorrow [1]:
 
1. More keynote ideas (see below
for another idea)
2. Process for invited speakers
3. CfP Marketing -- getting the
word out
 
https://www.eclipsecon.org/wiki/2014_Program_Committee/Call_Minutes#Oct_3_2013
 
Another idea for a keynote is someone
from the docker project [2]. Docker is an open source project focused on
delivering software. Solomon Hykes is the founder of the company behind
docker [3].

I've added him and Tim Bray (thanks
Shawn) to our wiki.
 
Cheers,
Ian

All,
 
Just so you know the EclipseCon
Call for Papers is now live. Please promote to your networks and communities.
 
For keynotes, I have not been successful
with Arduino or Red Hat. Tomorrow during our call we will need to talk
about the other alternatives. https://www.eclipsecon.org/na2014/cfp
