Email to people who might want to help

Hi!

 

I'm writing to you because I think you might be interested in the concept of BarCamp: an ad-hoc gathering born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos, and interaction from attendees.

 

Organisation for a BarCamp includes finind a few sponsors who will provide a venue, Internet access, food and drink. As most people bring a sleeping bag and stay overnight at BarCamps, the venue provider should be able to cater for this.

 

I've started the organisation for BarCampMelbourne, while a George Dickeson is doing the same for BarCampAdelaide. A BarCampPerth also exists, although I have not contacted the organiser yet.

 

George and I have been talking about running a BarCampAustralia, where a number of BarCamps around Australia all run the event on the same weekend: the 3rd and 4th of March 2007.

 

If you're interested in joining in and you live in Melbourne or Adelaide, please check out the wiki pages for the location in question. If you live elsewhere and would like to organise your own, please consider starting your own wiki page and linking to/from it and the BarCampAustralia pages.

 

I welcome any questions you might have about this, and encourage you to forward this email to anyone you feel might be interested. For further information, please see the BarCamp wiki pages:

Kind regards,
