Moar Coderetreats (Zero Overhead Coderetreats) #46
Comments
Peter, I love your proposal. |
Thank you for your proposal. |
I'm not sure we would fill the slots if we do it every 3 months. I'm
suggesting to meet to discuss this issue. I will organize a coding dojo
next month. Either than or a seperate meeting? I understand that not
everybody has enough time to meet, but it's easier for me to communicate
directly in person with you all. Tell me what you think about this.

I like the idea. A coding dojo is sometimes just enough to get started. Not sure how many I could attend in this or the following year. However I am sure that LRT would be glad to provide a room for up to 20 participants.

So, yes, good idea. I'd be interested to join, assuming a bi-monthly occurrence (as an example, I guess it'll be either 6x or 4x per year). Also, to keep Dojos as the small, regular variant, and these retreats an upcoming chance. Side comments at this point: Thomas, who is a regular guest, told me to prefer Dojos rather than retreats, as these retreats are too exhausting. Also, compare to shrinking participation on last retreat, especially for sessions 5 and 6 - so a reduction to 4 sessions might be an option. (e.g. two before, two after lunch) Now my conflicting thoughts: Though, with all these possibilities - and learning along the way - I've reached some sort of foggy glass-ceiling. The more and more specific various learning points are, the less I am in situations where I can apply them. Hence my shallow answers at the last retreat, culminating in having no answer to what I'd do different next day. Folded back again to these retreats: Yes, I'll join, though I don't have much to give or "actively take away" - apart from my enthusiasm :) |
Addendum: Having said all of that, this is more of a consumer-view. If, however, I already have some things that others would like to know about, then we'd have a provider-view - and I'm always happy to tell/teach others (willing to listen) about stuff. |
I was planing to do a dojo in December. Should I plan for 10th Dec? Or is
it ok if we focus on this coderetreat, and I'll do the dojo in January
|
@mlem please go ahead with the Dojo. Different events. Different guests. |
After discussing with @dertseha I decided for a schedule of every third Saturday every second month. So the days are known long time in advance. I stayed with Saturday because it is easier to get a room for us then. We might shorten the CR to 5 sessions if needed, we will see. I created a session ticket, see #48 to manage them. |
This seems to run for now. Closing |
As I said in the end of GDCR18 (#40) I would like to attend more Coderetreats. And who would not? ;-) Which means I have to make more of them. Here are my ideas for a format that is maybe more sustainable and which I would like to discuss with you to do so:
Must be minimal to no overhead for us as organizers
No facilitator
Open Questions
Please let's discuss @dertseha @paulroho @mlem @duffleit @xbojch @goerge
