Continuing the Barcamp tradition, we're embarking on a slightly more ambitious project for spring 2006...
The WineCamp wiki is moving~!
Due to the success of WineCampCalaveras, we're hosting a whole new WineCamp Wiki to keep track of all the future WineCamps (e.g. France, Niagara, South Africa?). Help us out! Fix it like the BarCamp wiki! Organize your own!
An ad-hoc gathering that brings together the best of the old world and the new... wine, non-profits and geeks!
Information for attendees
- NOTE: Information is available in the PDF, and at the official WineCamp site. Registration is mandatory; the cost is $60 for the weekend with discounts available. (cost is to cover food)
This wiki is primarily being used for the WineCampRideShare board, as well as the WineCampIneedIgot board (formerly needs and supplies). The rest of this page is a legacy planning docs.
The details
Who: How about this: we're not going to host just the regular Bar Camp crowd -- no, we're also going to invite a bunch of interested and proactive non-profits to mix it up in order to explore how the new wave of social apps that are all so near and dear to us can help bring about an evolution in the tools that non-profits use. And ideally, many of these will be or become open source...!
We're already working with the preeminent tech provider in the non-profit world, CompuMentor, to reach out and connect with folks ready for something new. It's time to meet up directly and make the connection between Bar Camp, open source and the non-profit community.
What: Bar Camp goes upscale! Wine, wifi, good food and a bon fire. What more can you ask for?
...Well, there is one more thing. The WineCampFundraiser! Imagine buying excellent wine for yourself and having part of the proceeds being put towards a program that encourages underprivileged students to get into open source. Sound good? Details (and how to get involved) coming soon!Blog Topsite
Where: This event will take place at the Ferriere vineyard in the Sierra foothills... Old Airola Road, Coyote Ridge Peninsula, between Murphy's and Columbia in Calaveras County.
Getting there:
When: Late Spring, May 26-28 2006, from Friday to Sunday. Designed to precede the NetSquared Gala event.
