Tom,
Can you provide a brief 2-3 sentence abstract for the track itself. What the goals of the track are and the broad topics you want to see covered? We need these for each track this year.
Thanks, Ilan

Shyam,
What do you need from me to make an Embedded Track happen?

Wanted to respawn this thread as we prepare to open up our CFP.
Having an Open Data track sounds like a great idea, we will have this as one of our tracks.
Generally we have enough coverage in Storage but having a dedicated
track
would be something to try out.
Again, it would be great to have volunteers lead the tracks, that would include recruiting potential speakers and also leading it on the
day-off,
potentially setting up a theme for that track...
We will have a blurb for this in the CFP as well...

Regarding Space in LA area, don't forget X-Prize & Virgin Galactic are also here.
In fact, the timing of this message is good. I'm president of www.uncoded.org -- a non-profit in Long Beach that works at local
connecting
tech community -- and we hold a monthly tech mixer. Next week, Will Pomerantz, Vice President of Special Projects at Virgin Galactic (and previously with X-prize) will be our special guest.
It might make sense for one or two folks from the core SCaLE team to
drop
in, details: http://www.meetup.com/Uncoded/events/230279066/
Also, it's been a couple years but my web shop www.MediaDoneRight.com
was
also helpful in building www.SpaceX.com -- I might even have a few
contacts.

HI,
Reaching out the key members of the pro-open source user community there's a few track ideas I would like to share with everyone here.
A) I believe we can find volunteers to help get these tracks
organized,
so that they take minimal time from the core SCaLE team.
B) Question on how to help make procedures / infrastructure to assist
in
building these tracks.
Track ideas:
- Open Data track / Civic Open Data - I believe this would make a
great
track, and that we can get the City of Pasadena, City of LA and OTHER
cities
to participate. 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 )
- 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.
- 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
- 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.
Qs: How do we coordinate and empower those interested in creating good tracks into SCaLE? Do I ask potential leads to join the planning list? Do we have any SaaS tools which are useful?
Thank You Matti
