Based on a comment on IRC, I investigated the options, and I have a
contact in Port au Prince, Haiti, who has a facility that we would be
able to use in the November-February time frame, when I would otherwise
be freezing through a Kentucky winter. Are we interested in doing a Dojo
in Haiti?
The facility is a middle school and high school, with reliable Internet
and rooms where we could hold events. We could bring food and beverage
onto campus, but due to the nature of the facility we would not be able
to bring alcohol onsite - I don't know if that's a show-stopper for
anyone. If it is, my brother-in-law would be glad to help us find other
facilities, but we'd be giving up some pretty sweet digs.
Disclaimer: I haven't actually been to the school, but I've heard great
things about the facilities, and would really like to visit the place
where my sister works. Also, their tech guy could use whatever help we
could offer while we're there.

Does OCP gear really play into how you build Hadoop? I mean, would it
be different on other hardware?
I feel like OCP would be an interesting talk on its own, as it's not
that widely used, and folks might have a lot of questions. Hadoop w/
Foreman also sounds interesting, especially if you can provide more
general guidance for building other packages / projects w/Foreman and
not strictly Hadoop...
Best,

Hi,
as the previous speaker I also want to introduce myself.
My name is Matthias Albert and I'm working for inovex which is a german IT system integrator with about 150 people working for and we're located in Karlsruhe, Munich and Cologne. At inovex I'm responsible for the division IT Engineering & Operations. We're doing all the stuff around GNU Linux & Open Source in a datacenter focused on High Availability and High Scaleability.
Because we're also using/working a lot with CentOS, I found the idea really great to host a CentOS dojo in Germany :).
As KB already mentioned, it would be really great if we could help organizing a Centos dojo in Germany. What I/we can offer is:
* a nice location in Karlsruhe or in Cologne (if it is OK, I would like to change the location to cologne)
* we can sponsor the catering (food and drinks and coffee and so on)
* we've a small and mobile "data center" where we could demonstrate a lot of cool things (http://www.minirz.com/wordpress/?page_id=39)
Regarding to the date:
* From our side it would be really great if we could host the event in August 2014.
I hope I have not forgotten anything :).
Cheers,
Matthias
