planning Game Night. you in?
by Lori Barfield 30 Jan '13

30 Jan '13

we are one month out now, and Game Night planning is ON. :-) Game Night is the high-energy place for attendees, non-geek +1s, and their offspring to have fun. but once again this year, this event will be our main social mixer on saturday night instead of a conventional reception, so we have much more of a mission than just providing board games. Game Night has to offer: - creative contests that encourage attendees to meet each other and engage each other on Open Source subjects - physical activities for people who have been sitting all day - a relatively quiet area for geeks to argue about the talks they attended, network for new talent for projects in need, and relax with friends - an array of recruiting tables for sponsors and job hunters - rewards like giveaways that acknowledge companies in Open Source and appreciate community members for their contributions - the priceless opportunity to humiliate a jerseyed SCaLE Chair at any number of games if you're on this mailing list, then you're one of the hard-working volunteers who put on SCaLE nearly free every year for the Open Source community. thanks for all your help in the past. let's plan something memorable! if you are available to help on saturday with early setup, running activities, or late breakdown, please reply on this thread or to me. if you have an idea, please start a new thread with Game Night in the subject, and we'll dive in. ...lori

by Jean Weber 23 Jan '13

23 Jan '13

I'm organising the LibreOffice booth at SCALE 11x and cannot find anywhere on the website what times and dates the exhibit hall will be open or when setup is going to be available. Can someone tell me, please? I need to make travel arrangements (flights) as I am not local to LA. Thanks! --Jean Weber

Time to start groveling for quiz questions
by Don Marti 10 Jan '13

10 Jan '13

Lori, all, My notes on the quiz from last time... http://zgp.org/~dmarti/misc/scale-poker-quiz/ The big thing that we can do better this time is to get quiz questions earlier in the process. (Having extra questions that don't have a corresponding answer card will make the game a little more challenging, too.) Do we have a complete list of Sat. speakers? At some point we should also start bugging the sponsors for questions, too. -- Don Marti +1-510-332-1587 (mobile) http://zgp.org/~dmarti/ Alameda, California, USA dmarti(a)zgp.org

LISA envoy, flyer
by Lori Barfield 14 Dec '12

14 Dec '12

hello, scale-planners, we are sending an envoy to LISA to man a SCaLE booth on the exhibit floor. we were thinking of handing out flyers and we can use your input on that and the booth. darkwing (david.wonderly(a)ubuntu.org) says he will make us a flyer tomorrow. to make getting started easier, i am trying to collect links to the graphics and text we already have that he is likely to need. i was thinking of a two-sided flyer, the front being a standard thing with our new motif, and the back promoting selected special events. should we use colored paper? colored ink? how many should we print up? ilan, you mentioned cross-promoting other events. can you please reply with the source for your linuxfests flyer used recently? orv/gareth, since the Beginner Training and Next Generation efforts are relatively new dimensions for our event, would you like us to emphasize them at the booth? perhaps we could use the back of the flyer for those details. if we do that, then the flyer becomes a handout that LISA-goers can share with the linux newbies they know at home and the office. have you guys got any promotional text or graphics from last year that darkwing can use? darkwing, here's what i dug up so far. last year's design git: https://github.com/socallinuxexpo/SCALE-Design our new slogan and motif for 11x: http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale11x/ previous flyer PDFs: http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale10x-supporting/sites/default/files/promo… http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale9x/sites/socallinuxexpo.org.scale9x/file… http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale8x/sites/socallinuxexpo.org.scale8x/file… previous misc promo item collections: http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale10x/promo-items http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale9x/blog/scale-9x-flyer.html http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale8x/flyers-and-logos.html thanks, ...lori

Hi. Congratulations on yet another great conference! (What was the attendee count this year?) Are there going to be MP3s of the talks available for download, as there were in previous years, please? (I don't expect them right away, just asking if recordings will be available?) Best, Aleksey

SCALE's Beginners Linux training class is tomorrow, March 3rd, and we still have a few open spots left in the class. The class will include: - an overview of the Open Source community and resources available within it. - a discussion of Linux's capabilities - an installfest - Basic system administration training, given by a professional trainer - An open problem solving lab, where students learn to configure printers, wireless access, etc. If someone you know is interested in Linux, but needs help getting started, this is a perfect way for them to spend a Saturday! A suitable computer for the class would have 1.5 GHz or greater CPU, 1 Gig of RAM and at least 10 Gigs of free disk space. Class is 10-5 at the Hilton LAX, cost is $25.
