Attendees
Whom to invite
Who should be invited? You tell us. Check the "Potential Attendees" list below for some existing ideas, and if you know of anyone else who might be worth inviting, PLEASE LET US KNOW.
We hope to have at least 10-15 people at the hackathon, and every commitment to come (even if it's an "if you pay for the trip, I'll be there" statement of intent), can be used for the fund-raising.
Also, remember that the goal is to make this hackathon as fun, useful, productive and relevant as possible! :)
Your role in this
Is this something for you? If so PLEASE TELL US, and include details of what you think you could contribute. This are the things we are looking for from each potential attendee:
- Who to invite: The name and contact address of the person you'd like invited.
- From who: The name of the person proposing the invitation.
- Why that person: A few words about what the suggested person does, in order to establish relevance.
- Area of expertise: Their specialist knowledge, and where they could or plan to contribute.
- URL with more info: Links to CPAN pages or anything else relevant.
- The response: ...including if there's a commitment, whether or not funds are needed, and if the idea is good or bad.
- Further comments: ...like topic/format suggestions, problems, ideas and other kinds of info that can make this easier to arrange.
Potential Attendees
The purpose of this list is to establish who we'd like to see in the same room, what they do/have done, how they can help with the hackathon and whether or not they have said they would come. "Not contacted" means "Not contacted yet by Barbie/JJ." :-P
