Workshops at Locations

twinkybot

Hi all,

good news
I got thepermission to use our office and got some sandwiches thrown in as well.

Okay. So we need now an agenda what we want to do. I liked @guru's proposal.
@Flohack I understood you correct that you also can provide some basics?

Otherwise let's try to get also some advanced topics and maybe we can try to fix some bugs?

Furthermore I try to make it more public so we get more attention
Suggestions? I wanted to put it on MeetUp. Any other platform?

What is the criticial minimum of participants if any?

flohack

@twinkybot Well from UBports side it is Jan and probably me (though need to confirm some company travel around the proposed times. The 17th of March for example is too late for me but nevermind :)). I suggest that we try to find min 5 people. Whats your max capacity?

I'm in Valais (Wallis) Switzerland and I'd be very interested in meeting UT peers and learning few tricks from you guys. It will depend on my work schedule before I can confirm but weekend is definately more suitable.

jonius

Great idea! I live in Munich and I will be there if possible.

twinkybot

@flohack Well the capacity is "infinit" if we scatter a bit. But I'd say 15 is easy then we have to distribute to other rooms.

So we have now 1.5 contributors if @guru still wants to host some topic that is. Who else?

twinkybot

Also please announce this again in the telegram group if you want.

Anyone interested in a workshop in Northern Germany? I'm in Hamburg and quite interested.

twinkybot

So now, the date is fixed

17. March 2018 - 18. March 2018

@UniSuperBox If you would be so kind to add this to the event page with the address:
Valtech GmbH
Friedenheimer Brücke 29
80636 München

S-Bahn station: Hirschgarten

Do not take the S7 from Hauptbahnhof. The only one which is not going to Hirschgarten.

Now where can we put the agenda? So that everyone can edit it or put forward their contribution?

revoltevidente

Hey! I'd like to come and meet you all but I'm 600 kms away... Why are you all german? LOL. If it was closer to France, I would come but Mûnchen is very far for me

twinkybot

@revoltevidente Then try to organize one at your location

EDIT: BTW I am also sad not to be able to meet everyone. I thought about going to the FOSDEM but well....
Maybe at another event which suits many?

twinkybot

I also thought about or anouncing it on Meetup. Anyone against the idea?

wayneoutthere

@twinkybot hey folks. I was going to add this to an event page but we don't have times. Can you give us some time parameters or ranges please? The event page requires it. Thanks! Also perhaps ping me on telegram wayneoutthere for faster speed

twinkybot

@wayneoutthere Sorry do not have telegramm.
I do not know let's say
10:00 to 17:00 on Saturday
10:00 to 14:00 on Sunday?

Wow we are two

Hmm let's see. I am sitting in Munich and I could oragnize something but for this I really need someone who does know UT
We could use my office, which has plenty space and I might even be able to organize dinner
Depends if we can announce this in e.g MeetUp.

Nice idea! I'd love to join as well.

I think part of this could be hacking sessions. Everybody brings whatever their pet projects are and we push them a little forward helping each other out.

My two pet projects are:

guru

In the Munich workshop, what do we have as technical infrastructure? Big screens or beamer with HDMI? Some overhead projector to show the screen of the BQ E4.5 live? Anything else?

@guru yes we have two "big" meeting rooms with big TVs. One bigger room with a projector. An open area with an projector.
And plenty normal monitors if we put them back
Another projector in a cabinet.

I have to say also one area which is not open for the public.

And guest wifi. Good Coffee, various bewerages and a lunch.
Let's see if I can throw in a dinner as well

I'm happy to see ubuntu touch on different devices and may be get my hands on this

My app projects are a mpd client and a sound cloud app. Would be nice to talk about how to start...

I was asking more for the interface HMDI because my Acer C720 netbook has only HMDI. And for some projector to capture the device BQ (...) with some kind of cam located on top over the BQ and beam it to the wall while one is manipulating some app to show some nice feature/stuff. Does your office has such stuff?
