DemoCamp is a variation of the un-conference style of event, started by the TorCamp group as an excuse to have more regular meetings.
Though conceived in Toronto, this style of get-together would work well anywhere. Why not start one in your city?

FAQ
- What's the difference between a DemoCamp & a BarCamp?
- A DemoCamp is a lighter-weight style of un-conference. A DemoCamp last only a few hours on a weekday evening, as opposed to a traditional BarCamp which would usually be a multi-day event and take place on a weekend. As such, they are easier to organize and tend to happen more frequently.
- Who can come?
- What are the rules?
- Rule #1 of DemoCamp: Talk about DemoCamp ;)
- Rule #2 of DemoCamp: No powerpoints allowed. Why no .ppt ? Well, do you have working software or don't you?
- Do I have to have a demo?
- Nope! Unlike a BarCamp, you are welcome to come along and give feedback to the people who do (or just watch and absorb if you don't feel like talking).
- What if I do want to demo?
- Who decides who gets to demo?
- There are 5 available presentations that are available on a first come, first serve basis. Just edit the wiki page.

Call for Help
In order to help promote DemoCamps elsewhere, we need a __generic DemoCamp logo__, one that doesn't have the maple leaf and can be modified for different cities.
Please just go ahead and replace the one at the top of this page if you have the time to make a new one. Thanks! And don't forget to add it to the LogoGallery.
