Hello,
I am currently working on the openSUSE Summit website [1] [2]. And I would love to contribute my two cents towards the openSUSE Conference. That being said, I would like to help with the openSUSE Conference website as well. We can use the same code structure for the openSUSE Conference as we did for the openSUSE Summit.
Looking forward to comments and suggestions.
Sooo we can basically copy the Summit site to get the oSC one up and running in no time. Adjusting the texts etc won't be hard, I'd be happy to work on that. More important is artwork: without that, it's not ready. I just talked to Andy and he said the thing missing is a feel about the theme - what will oSC 2012 be, what will it be about? We have to agree on a theme, give it to our artists and then they can do something. So, in an attempt to kick that off, let me suggest something: Last year we wanted to bring more interactivity to our conference - RWX. The year before that we focussed on collaboration accross borders. This year, we'll go to our roots: have fun! So we'll ask speakers to make sure their talks are not just technical but also fun. Of course, for us, fun is not just about beer, clowns and little hats - it is about solving interesting problems, meeting cool people, learning surprising new things and doing crazy stuff. Experiments, crazy things, innovation, but also practical implementations you might not have expected like - showing what our ARM port can do with hardware. So the CfP committee would have to ensure we'd have a bit more experimental, weird things at the conf. The organization committee has to make sure the party is real good :D and the artists have to show fun. Like? /Jos
