Hi All,
I need to start thinking about and plan for JUC SF 2013. In previous
years we've had JUC SF on a Sunday, right before JavaOne and in SF. Now
that we've build good traction with JUC SF, i'd like to get feedback from
the community whether we should host the next JUC in the Bay Area, on a
weekday or should we keep it as we've done it in the past- which was in
SF, on a Sunday, before J1?
In hindsight, this would have been an excellent question for Jenkins survey.
But that's too late, so I think we should put up a poll. If you can
create a Google Docs form for this, I can write a post on
http://jenkins-ci.org/node and hopefully we get some feedbacks.
If you know of a venue who could host 300-400 people for free/cheap in
the Bay Area, pls let me know.
I'm not exactly local to the city, but what looked good in Tokyo is
university class rooms.
This limits the time we can have an event, but in Tokyo it was
substantially cheaper than commercial conference room rentals.
I did a bit of search:
SFSU: http://www.sfsu.edu/~uniadv/facilities/rental.htm
UC Berkeley: http://facilities.calperfs.berkeley.edu/rental.php
City College of SF:
http://www.ccsf.edu/NEW/en/educational-programs/school-and-departments/school-of-health-and-physical-education/physical-education-and-dance/facility_rental.html
Some of them might be willing to discount for open-source projects
(which would probably come with restriction for vendor activities, but
in a way that's good for us, right?)
