Updates

 

UPDATE: 08/15/06: We now have a location confirmed. It's a great space that gives us three rooms (and a fourth "area" if neccessary) for sessions. The largest room has a capacity of 40-60 and the smallest is about 8-10 people so we've got a good range of spaces for a good variety of types & styles of sessions. Registration abilities should be up and running very shortly. The goal is still to try and get an outdoor Sunday venue together for a more social/network oriented day with more discussion-based sessions.

 

UPDATE: 08/04/06: We are getting close to nailing down a location - at this point we are actually in the beneficial position of having a choice of spaces though rather than trying to find one. So this event defenitely has a home - we're just working out which is the best (considering facilities & capacity). Watch for a registration mechanism of some kind late next week.

What is BarCamp

(As stolen from BarCampNYC and BarCampLosAngeles, as copied from BarCampSanDiego) BarCamp is an ad-hoc un-conference 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.

 

This event is part of the TorCamp phenomenon, started last November. It's grown from about 50 at TorCamp 1 to over 140 at the last TorCamp DemoCamp.

 

All attendees must give a demo, a session, or help with one. All presentions are scheduled the day they happen. Prepare in advance, but come early to get a slot on the wall.

 

Presenters are responsible for making sure that notes/slides/audio/video of their presentations are published on the web for the benefit of all and those who can’t be present.

 

Anyone with something to contribute or with the desire to learn is welcome and invited to join.

 

NO SPECTATORS, ONLY PARTICIPANTS!

 

When you come, be prepared to share with barcampers. When you leave, be prepared to share it with the world.
