Venue walkthrough
Wednesday, July 18th, 2007 at 6:00 PM, before RefreshMiami. Anyone interested in helping out is invited to attend. It should be a quick walkthrough of the event, no more than 30 minutes, concentrating on parking, building access/security, any restrictions on food deliveries, access to power and wifi and a possible shortage of chairs and tables. Depending on who, if anyone, shows up, we might stop by the Rathskeller afterwards, but it just depends.

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.
- How long is each demo?
- Demos should have roughly a 2 minute introduction, 8 minute demonstration, and 5 minutes for questions. 15 minutes total.
- How do a start a DemoCamp in my city?
