Hello guys, |
2 |
|
3 |
First I would like to say big thank you to Amy (amynka) for prodding and |
4 |
nudging people and working on the booth. |
5 |
|
6 |
Next in line is Christopher (chithead) whom also handled our booth and even |
7 |
brought with him fancy mips machine and monitor all the way from Berlin. |
8 |
Kudos for that :) |
9 |
|
10 |
And last I want to commend all the people giving the talks during the day. |
11 |
|
12 |
In the end we did bit Q&A with users, which was short so rest I spent |
13 |
asking how we should do the miniconf and what would be desired. |
14 |
|
15 |
So first lets take look on what we had and what we can do there to make it |
16 |
even cooler for next time: |
17 |
|
18 |
1) Booth: |
19 |
Place where we share/sell SWAG chat with community: |
20 |
|
21 |
People stopped by, took some stickers here and there and watched the mips |
22 |
boxie we had there. |
23 |
|
24 |
I have to admit that I screwed up with our materials a bit and we didn't |
25 |
have much on the stand. I thought we have more leftover stickers/brochures, |
26 |
but we had just few and super plan to get Gentoo t-shirts failed me |
27 |
miserably... :( |
28 |
|
29 |
Future posibilites: |
30 |
|
31 |
Someone from Gentoo ev. could arrive too and actually sell some stuff like |
32 |
cups/tshirts as we seem unable to get something working here in Czech |
33 |
republic. With that we would have really pretty booth :) |
34 |
|
35 |
People were quite interested in our merchandise and are even willing to buy |
36 |
it. |
37 |
|
38 |
2) Track: |
39 |
|
40 |
We had one day of talks, and basically everything went smoothly and videos |
41 |
will be available in near future on youtube. I will try to remember to post |
42 |
link here as reply when it is done (if it is not here in a week, prod me on |
43 |
irc because that means I forgot). |
44 |
|
45 |
Future: |
46 |
|
47 |
We should make the thing 2 days, so it is worth for people to go to Prague, |
48 |
for one day I guess it is not that motivating. |
49 |
|
50 |
We should start looking for talks sooner than couple of months in advance |
51 |
so people can plan for it. |
52 |
|
53 |
3) Overall state/possibilities: |
54 |
|
55 |
First here are photos: |

|
59 |
Linuxdays people are more than happy to provide us with the room if we have |
60 |
the content. |
61 |
|
62 |
Most of the people attending to the conference speak english, so even tho |
63 |
quite parts of the tracks are czech, we can talk with the people around. |
64 |
|
65 |
We could do it yearly/bi-yearly, my take would be to create 2 days miniconf |
66 |
each two year, so next one could be done 2016 unless of course you want it |
67 |
next year again and tell me right now :) |
68 |
|
69 |
Cheers |

74 |
I want all devs to see this |
