COVID and public health considerations for SCaLE 20x
by der.hans 18 Jan '23

18 Jan '23

moin moin, Do we have masking and vaccination requirements for SCaLE 20x? For 19x in the Summer we required proof of vaccination or a negative test. The most obvious URL is from 2020. Flashbacks from that post :). https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/blog/coronavirus I did find a short paragraph under policies. https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/20x/policies ---- SCaLE follows and enforces health and saftey guidelines as recommended by the State of California Dept. of Health, Los Angeles County Health, and the CDC with regards to COVID-19. When purchasing a ticket to SCALE, you attest that you understand, accept, will comply with our COVID-19 policies, precautions and safetly guidelines. We are not able to offer refunds based on disagreements with this policy or failure to comply. ---- It says attendees will comply with our policies, but doesn't state what they are or at least link to the guidelines from the named government agencies. The Public Health Pledge is gaining popularity for FLOSS conferences and attendees. It encourages us to have a clear Health and Safety policy that is easy to find and in the registration flow. https://phpledge.com/ Can we include the policies requested by the Public Health Pledge and sign on to it? ciao, der.hans -- # https://www.LuftHans.com https://www.PhxLinux.org # Hope has two beautiful daughters: Anger and Courage. Anger at the way # things are, and Courage to struggle to create things as they should be. # -- St. Augustine

PR at SGVLUG Connect week event on Oct 13. Re: [scale-cfp-reviewers] SCaLE 20x 2023 Call for Papers is open!
by Lan Dang 01 Nov '22

Thanks Matt. It's going to be really busy. Supplyframe is doing their open house before our event--or we may be a part of their open house event, so we'll probably have the Hackaday community there. We'll also have at least one Open Source Rover there. I will try my hardest to bring mine. All, Our local newspaper, the Pasadena Now, will be covering our event. I need a little help compiling some material for them. 1) PR folks: any images you can share to represent SCALE 20x? "...if you have any images (representing your event topic and/or of your speakers/facilitators/participants) please send those as well" 2) And they've sent us some preliminary questions. I'm working on the answers, but would be happy to incorporate your input. - Can you please introduce SVGLUG to our readers? - What makes the Linux operating system unique compared to the other operating systems on the market? - Can you give us examples of open source projects that you will be discussing during Connect Week? - How big is the Linux community here in Pasadena? How many Pasadenans belong to SVGLUG? - How important is collaboration in creating breakthrough open source systems that are being used by prominent organizations such as JPL?

SCaLE 20x 2023 Call for Papers is open!
by KC Braunschweig 08 Oct '22

08 Oct '22

The SCaLE CFP is open and information is posted about all the tracks and expected co-located events we're working on. https://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale/20x/cfp The website isn't fully updated yet but at least the cfp is updated sufficiently that you can direct people there. Also talk submissions work and so people can start submitting as soon as they're ready. We'll follow up with a more organized plan to publicize this as the full website update is finished but I wanted to let all of you know that the CFP is up and you can send people to it. Thanks to everyone who helped with the content and getting the website updated. -- KC Braunschweig Program Chair Southern California Linux Expo kcb(a)socallinuxexpo.org

SCaLE 20x Program Committee
by KC Braunschweig 23 Sep '22

23 Sep '22

Did you know there's a scale CFP reviewers mailing list? We're also using this list for program planning in general. We're currently finalizing the tracks for scale 20x before we open the Call For Papers (CFP) in the next few weeks. There are opportunities for you to get involved as a track lead or working with a track lead to select talks for a track. If you're interested, please reach out to me or subscribe to the list and introduce yourself. https://lists.linuxfests.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/scale-cfp-reviewers I'll post again when the CFP is open. Even if you don't join us, I hope everyone will publish the CFP to their network so we can find all the best speakers for this anniversary year! -- KC Braunschweig Program Chair Southern California Linux Expo kcb(a)socallinuxexpo.org

Re: [Scale-planning] Discussions on GH opened

Moving this back to -planning. There's no secrets here. Perhaps people have opinions on how they'd prefer to interact. We should get input (if any) from the actual people on this list before deciding one path is better than the other, or that we need 1 vs 2 or 2 vs 1.

Thanks to KC's idea to put docs in the the GH wiki, we now have some new docs here: https://github.com/socallinuxexpo/SCALE-Planning/wiki * how to contribute * how to review CFPs * how to invite keynotes Hopefully more to come. -- Phil Dibowitz phil(a)ipom.com Open Source software and tech docs Insanity Palace of Metallica http://www.phildev.net/ http://www.ipom.com/ "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." - Dr. Seuss

program chair / program committee
by KC Braunschweig 10 Aug '22

10 Aug '22

It came up at SCaLE that we should look to have a Program chair again after operating without one since Shyam stepped down. I've been a track lead for a couple years and this is something I'd like to take on. As I see it we've got a good group of track leads who have been operating pretty independently. My hope is these folks will continue to lead their tracks and will form the program committee to coordinate together where needed. Initially my goals are pretty simple: 1. help the track leads get through the CFP selection process efficiently and set the schedule 2. work out how we want to support our speakers during the conference - it seems like several folks have feedback and ideas about this so it'll be the first topic for discussion with the group Assuming y'all are ok with it I'll hope to reach out to the track leads and kick this off soon. It's a short year until March so CFP deadlines will come up quick! KC

porn comments on youtube
by KC Braunschweig 10 Aug '22

A good number of the youtube uploads of talks have porn/spam comments. Who has admin access to clean them up? These were the ones I saw, maybe more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciX3iq0bInw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snHjDfjDdBs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AK42Od4_54 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVQf2mPqT9Y https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5q7m21tfBk8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j38yNc2wHmY KC
