From Reichart

 

I currently have Richard Stallman of the Free Software Foundation staying with me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My goal is to get him to come to BarCamp and give a talk on Free Software (tricky, eh?).

 

He is not likely to come unless a lot of people sign up to come to his talk. So if the number is high, he will come with me Sunday.

 

Please add your name below if you plan to sit in.

 

Yes, I want to a free lecture on free software:

 

  1. Reichart – Qtask  Hey, it’s free!
  2. Markus Sandy – Show In A Box  Wordpress Vlogging
  3. Micki Krimmel
  4. Richard Schave - my blog  
  5. Jane Lee
  6. Adam Ness
  7. Jon Edwards - Please come Richard!

 

Other Details/Info

 

What to bring

  • Laptop + power brick
  • Sleeping bag + pillow
  • A love for technology
  • Cool stuff to share with new friends
  • Jello shots
  • Werewolf cards
  • New ideas, new product demos
  • Business/Trading Cards
  • Your favorite random game pieces

 

 

 

 

Code of Conduct

Yeah, we don't like rules either, that's why we kept these short. These apply to both BarCamps and the Geek Dinners. Please review so we can all have a good time. BarCampLA Code of Conduct

 

 

Questions

  • Do I have to come with a presentation? Not necessarily. Barcamp is about participation. And a presentation can be about a lot of things. Demo a new product. Share a methodology. Participate in a panel. Suggest a topic. Make jello shots, host werewolf or bring your Wii and some games.
  • I can't make it until around seven on Saturday. How should I reserve a place for a session?

 

Help Us Get the Word Out!

Here's the boiler plate:

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.

 

All attendees must give a demo, a session, or help with one. All presentations 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.
