Hi,
Sorry for the delay, I finally have answers.

I will try and ping a few people as well.
In the mean time, do we know how many people we might be able to host ? and if talks are preffered in English or French or we try and do a mix ?
We might be able to host up to 70-80 people, sitting. If they need their laptops, they will have them literally on their laps, and I don't think we can provide power for everyone. We have WiFi for the attendees too.
If we can get the address details and some sort of a date established, we can get the wiki page up and start doing some promo around it.
The address: 11, rue de Milan 75009 Paris
Pick a day in August (25-29)!
Cheers, Dridi
Sounds good, thanks
Any reason to not hold it on the 25th ? That still gives us a bit of time to prep.
Also, will there be 'some' power outlets or none at all ? we might need to make sure any tutorial or follow-along session is held early in the day.
I'm going to assume its ok to start at 10:00 and maybe go till 17:00
Are there lunch options ? if we can find catering, will they have place to come and setup onsite ? if not, are there places people can eat around the venue ? Orthogonally, will we be able to get tea/coffee/water ? actually, its in france, so we dont need Tea.
Regards

lets do the 25th, unless there is a reason not to.
I've setup http://wiki.centos.org/Events/Dojo/Paris2014 and the corrosponding eventbrite page, we can announce and start promoting as soon as we are ready.
Also, let me know what you'd like to see listed in the venue sponsor box.

Hi,
It's been a while, sorry for the long silence.
First off, I'm glad to see misc and number80 come and speak in my company :)
Secondly, I have given you a wrong address: s/11/10/ (my bad)
And last but not least, how are things doing on the attendees side? Eventbrite doesn't give me any clue, so I don't know how many seats have been created, and how many attendees have registered yet.
Also I'll have our marketing team send you an email to discuss the what they'd like to see in the sponsor box.
Cheers, Dridi

I'm booking the room then!
Also, will there be 'some' power outlets or none at all ? we might need to make sure any tutorial or follow-along session is held early in the day.
Please assume there won't, I'll check that.

We could have setup lunch in the other part of the room, some sort of buffet.
This is what we do when we host evening talks: We order enough pizzas for everyone and we open the boxes progressively until we run out of them. I can try to get us beers too.
Otherwise there are plenty of restaurants around, so people should be able to find something for lunch, but only a few could recv the whole venue.
Water/coffee is not an issue ;-)
