Hi, folks,
Just wanted to give a quick update on what I've been doing around CentOS Promo over the last few weeks, and what's coming up. Please help me in promoting all of these things around the community.
* The CFP for the CentOS Dojo at DevConf.US closes this weekend. Details at https://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/DevConfUS2018 To be blunt, I'm leaning very hard towards canceling it, due to the lack of talk submissions that I can actually schedule. So far we have perhaps 3 presentations I would consider scheduling. I will have to make a decision on Monday, so if you are waiting until the last minute, it has arrived.
* We will have a booth/table in the community room at DevConf.us. I'm looking for volunteers. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1KDVgTO4M4UFdtONRHAjKTFRnwUMk4P2tTkZv... I just need people who can be friendly, and answer questions.
* Next week I will be at ISC-HPC.com - the European Supercomputing conference. My main goal there is to get video interviews with the students participating in the Student Cluster Competition (because they're all using CentOS) and talk with the research organizations and Universities who are present (because they are, too).
* The CFP is open for the CentOS Dojo at CERN. https://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/CERN2018 The CFP is going very well, and we'll be able to field a great schedule, based on what I've seen so far. Keep them coming. Also, make sure to register, since security is tight and you won't get in the front door if you haven't registered.
* We have booked a space for the annual Dojo at FOSDEM. Same place as last year. Early details are at https://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/Brussels2019 Look for a formal CFP coming real soon.
* We have sponsored Ohio LinuxFest, in conjunction with Fedora. https://ohiolinux.org/ I will soon be looking for volunteers to staff our table/booth there.
* I am considering a presence at the following events: * Open Source Summit, Edinburgh - https://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/open-source-summit-europe-2018/ * Open Source Summit, Vancouver - https://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/open-source-summit-north-america-2... * https://sc18.supercomputing.org Dallas
If there are other events where you feel we should have a presence, please speak up soon, as my calendar is filling up.
