ApacheCon EU Survey

A few questions for those who attended in Sinsheim from the AOO project. I'm hoping these answers will help us decide how to prioritize attendance at future events. On a scale of 1-5, where 1 is lowest and 5 is highest, how effective was attending ApacheCon EU to you for each of the following: A

Ross, this isn't a "what if" survey based on what attendees might have done, but didn't. I'm interesting in their actual experiences. But feel free to add a relevant additional question if you feel one is missing. -Rob On Nov 10, 2012, at 10:04 AM, Ross Gardler wrote: > You missed how useful wa

Once you get all the answers, will you then publish it (in a "statistic" form) ? I looked deeply into my pocket for apacheCon, but found it very expensive, so I would really like to hear if it was worthwhile. We have FOSDEM upcomming in europe, and many like me, may be questioning, is that how I

I'll second what Ross has to say. There are huge synergies that can happen between Apache projects and often these are facilitated by the interactions between people who meet at Apachecon. Over time projects become dependencies of other projects in very powerful ways. One example is Apache Tika

Sorry Rob, I for one think you are doing the right thing collecting experience after a conference !! Instead of apacheCON just being what it is, you try to collect information which we can use be be better in the future +1 for that ! Jan. On 10 November 2012 18:54, Rob Weir wrote: > On Nov 10

I'm talking about working as a project within the ASF. Some of the discussion at the first community event seemed to revolve around misunderstanding aspects of hownthe ASF works. ApacheCons are an ideal place to resolve issues. But as a new ASF project AOO might not have had the benefit. Sent from

I think that is a good idea, the flyer is a nice summary and could be used at any local events, or simply as a press release. Just to air a thought, should we make a directory trunk/main/documentation, and use the l10n process to translate the documents ? As we anyhow redefine the l10n process, n

I like your "maybe", but as I see it, there are no such thing as "apache" supervising what we do, "apache" is a community and we are all part of it, so what we do as a community have to be correct. I was just waving a flag, because I do not think that we support all linux variants, and I have been
