Thank you all for your willingness to participate in this. In addition to Christofer's comments about the target technical level of the talks, I want to reiterate that one of our primary goals for this opportunity needs to be to educate about the ASF, followed by the goal of talking about individual projects. That is, the primary message is 'The Apache Way', and the secondary message is intros to specific projects. See also Shane's thread 'Adding roster of community-focused talks'.
That said, having a top-level 'Apache Way' talk is important, and having a talk about the Incubator is also greatly desired. --Rich On 05/23/2017 10:31 AM, Rich Bowen wrote: > We have been invited to participate at Solutions.Hamburg 2017 - > https://solutions.hamburg/ - providing an Apache Day.
