They can use this track to help supplement their city run hack-a-thons. ( we can probably get the various Open Data SaaS providers to sponsor the tracks )</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>2) CTO mixer - we need imho to bring in CxOs into SCaLE to help bring great industry support and encourage their staffs to join us. Joe Devon who organizers and runs a lot of the pro-open source LA meetups is currently running a CTO mixer meetup - and discussing this with him seems like this would be a great fit for SCaLE. - I was thinking Thur would be a great day for this... and I would expect that we can get some good sponsorship for this.</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>3) Space / Space Open Data - NASA just had their Space App Challenge and it was well attended in Pasadena, as well as OC and they had events throughout the world. The also had Open Data available for attendees, and JPL has an Open Data proponent. With Space X also in LA we should be able to find some great opportunities to make a "Space / Space Open Data" track. We could have this be a Science Open Data track for 1 day followed by a Civic Open Data track </div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>4) Storage track - Jordan Swartz talked to me about creating an Storage track Thur before DevOps day. Sounded like a great idea, and he seemed very interested in being the lead. </div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>Qs:</div><div>How do we coordinate and empower those interested in creating good tracks into SCaLE?</div><div>Do I ask potential leads to join the planning list? </div><div>Do we have any SaaS tools which are useful?</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>Thank You</div><div>Matti</div><div><br clear="none"></div></div></div></div><span class="yiv5848634180">
