Presentations will start promptly at 7:15pm, and all attendees are invited to talk about their latest work with Drupal, whether it is building simple sites or developing complicated modules. We are going to keep things very informal, and each presenter should talk for about 5 minutes, with time for discussion afterwards.

A projector and wi-fi will be provided, so feel free to bring your laptop so you can easily share things with the group. We have several different types of apple video connectors, but it might not hurt for you to bring your own if you have it so we don't have to fumble around too much.

Beer and soft drinks will be provided, though unlike some previous meetups there will be no food. Feel free to stop at one of the many restaurants in the area and bring you snack or dinner with you.

See you all next week! A big thanks to Mike for organizing this!

De brainstorm gaat over de mogelijkheden het volgende kip/ei probleem op te lossen:

(Buitenlandse) Open Source backoffice producten (financieel pakket, projecten administratie, ledenadministratie) zijn nog nauwelijks in Nederland in gebruik omdat er geen stevige ondersteuners zijn; en die zijn er weer niet, omdat er nog nauwelijks klanten zijn.

Milieudefensie heeft een aantal van de opties verder verkend en weet dat er ook nog extra funtionaliteiten en localisaties (bijvoorbeeld praten met nederlandse banken) nodig zouden zijn om de buitenlandse software in Nederland in te zetten.

In deze bijeenkomst proberen we tevens potentiële klanten en potentiële aanbieders met elkaar in contact te brengen.

Programma

* 19.00 Ontvangst
* 19.15 Voorstelrondje
* 19.30 Pizza's
* 20.00 Korte probleem schets Anne (SP) (5 min)

The objective of the Plumbers Conference is to solve problems, a goal reflected in the program development. The conference is arranged as a series of MicroConfs, each on a topic that is narrow enough to identify specific problem areas and brainstorm workable solutions. Each MicroConf is run by a topic champion and attendees include invited stakeholders, decision-makers and leading and new developers.

The Linux Plumbers Conference is underwritten by The Linux Foundation and organized in partnership with The Linux Foundation and community volunteers.

The Linux Plumbers Conference is a revenue neutral event.

WHAT IS CON-X-TREME?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CON-X-TREME is volunteer-run event held this year over the extended Labor Day weekend at the San Mateo Marriott Hotel. The primary area of emphasis is focused on the creation of art and other media, traditional and non-traditional, without the limitation of holding true to a certain theme or topic.
While some may view this as simply it is another anime or science fiction convention event, the real opportunities this event brings forward is an opportunity for fans of all mediums to meet and network with both other fans and professionals alike. Whether it be physical art, virtual art, film & television, video games or music, CON-X-TREME attempts to have compelling, knowledgeable, and well-spoken Guests of Honor who are willing to spend time sharing their experiences within their respective industries, mentoring our attendees through discussion panels, classroom instruction, and other programming events.
Throughout each day of the weekend event, CON-X-TREME presents curriculum through a series of classroom programming where event members may participate in the discussion or hands-on study of particular subjects.
CON-X-TREME is not all classrooms, lectures, and study however, as we temper much of the proceeding with many other programming alternatives including, but not limited to, the following:
v A 24-hour anime programming room featuring professional and fan-created animation videos and programs;
v A room dedicated to premiering the latest in console and computer video games and technology;
v Dedicated space for costume gatherings and workshops which will culminate in a full costume contest event;
v Event space which promotes and displays artwork from many of the Bay Area’s most vibrant and popular artists;
All in all, CON-X-TREME aspires to provide opportunities for the truly creative side of fans and professionals to mix freely within an environment which inspires creativity and spontaneity.
