FOSDEM 2018 - Brussels

[amye]

Date: Feb 3-4, 2018
FOSDEM

• Stand: applied for, sharing with Ceph
• DevRoom: @nixpanic with Thiago da Silva

[nixpanic]

CfP for the Sofware Defined Storage devroom closes 26 November.

[amye]

@amye to build out a schedule on the website for office hours and demos at the booth.

[nixpanic]

Try to get Gluster branded T-shirt/polo for crew at the booth. Obviously @amye needs to know sizes of the people attending, as early as possible.

[amye]

Other things that came up in community meeting on 8-Nov:

• Monitor for the stand
• Ask oVirt for a shared demo office hour type thing.
• Branded polos, 6 week deadline ahead of event.

[amye]

@nixpanic, ping on the polo shirts. I've already got some in-house, but how many do we think we need?

I had my submission to do a talk on Gluster-4.0 and GD2 accepted by the Storage devroom. I also saw another accepted talk on Gluster, 'Debugging A Live Gluster File System Using .meta Directory' which I guess was submitted by @rafikc30.

I'll be needing one of those shirts!

I suggest that the people manning the Gluster table should wear one. Maybe the presenters of Gluster talks too? The list of Gluster contributors currently looks like - Kaushal (SDS talk on Sunday) - Niels de Vos (SDS devroom on Sunday) - size M - Kaleb Keithley - Raghavendra Gowdappa (Performance talk on Saturday) - Krutika Dhananjay (Performance talk on Saturday) - Manisha Saini (SDS talk on Sunday) - Manoj Pillai (Performance talk on Saturday) - Rafi KC (SDS talk on Sunday) If we could get a proposed schedule for booth attendence (min 2 persons at all time), that would be great. As I will be busy the whole Sunday, I would like to roam around at least a little bit on Saturday. You can plan me in for 2x 2 hours or so. Thanks!

On the monitor: I've not been able to get responses on this, so I'll be bringing a portable monitor to use for demos.

[amye]

Speaking of demos, @nixpanic, @kshlm, @rafikc30, @raghavendrahg, @msainiRedhat (all the people I had GitHub usernames for) - please put your demos next to your booth schedule as well.
