FOSS4G2008 Demos

2008-09-30T14:43:11Z

Wiki-Elem: /* Provisional Timetable */

Back to [[FOSS4G2008]]...

One of the great attractions to an international conference like this is a chance to show off your work. At FOSS4G 2007 there was a room dedicated to the demo theatre, with facilities and schedule of its own. In 2008 we will have a demo theatre set up right in the Exhibition Hall. Viewers can take in their food and drinks and be informed and entertained by live demonstrations.

== Organisers & Volunteers ==

* Tim Sutton
* ?

Where possible we will try and have community leaders introduce the members of their community that are offering demos.

[[FOSS4G2008_LocMembers]]

= Demo Theatre =

== Demo Venue ==

A demo theatre will be constructed at one end of the Exhibition Hall.

== Demo Facilities ==

* We will have two overhead projectors (so one team can set up as another is presenting).
* a table will be provided for handouts or marketing material

== Who can demo? ==

Any person registered for the conference can do a demo (no discount for doing a demo). The best deals if you want to attend the conference purely to give a demo are to register for just one day or with a students / academic discount if you qualify. Of course we encourage you to attend the whole conference if you can!

== Demo Schedule ==

Some things we will take into consideration when scheduling demos:
* Primary spots are during Lunches and Tea breaks (these time slots have the most walk-by traffic to feed on)
* Additional timeslots will be opened up if needed
* We will group similar content together (both to allow direct comparison and to let those interested in a topic to mark off a block of time)
* We will need to be sure not to conflict with the presentation program (setting up cool examples of GRASS opposite the GRASS track would not be a good thing)
* Demos are the last thing to be Scheduled in terms of conference priorities (we need to be sure that Labs and Presentations are accounted for first)
* If you would like to do a demonstration in the theatre, please contact the theatre coordinator (Tim Sutton - tim@linfiniti.com) or add your name and contact details below.

== Registering for your demo ==

If you would like to do a demonstration please email tim@linfiniti.com providing your name, email address, topic / title for your presentation and your preferred time slot. Tim will then add you to the timetable below, and communicate with you if there are scheduling conflicts.

Closed for closing plenary

= Giving a Demo =

The first step is to have something to demo:
* You have 10 minutes
* You must demo live software (really - it is an open source software conference). No presentation slides.
* Show us, rather that talk. It is better to show software and leave time for questions than to try and handle this as a presentation.
* Source code is hard to read and does not qualify for "show us"
* You will have 5 mins to set up prior, and 5 mins to tear down. Please be prompt as there is someone waiting to start after you.
* Sponsors (or anyone starting a session): you will have access to the room for a bit before the session starts - if you want to take the time drag in a poster (or put hand outs on the chairs) more power to you.

The second step is to email us:
* Contact Tim Sutton - tim@linfiniti.com
* Let us know of any schedule constraints (perhaps you are presenting or giving a lab)
* We will get back to you with a timeslot (we will be organizing the demos according to subject matter or community).

== Suggestions ==

Is this your first time doing a demo?
* If you are used to doing presentations; try this approach: Show the software and hand out your presentation in paper form.
* Be excited, what you are showing is *cool* and meeting people like you is why we come to these conferences anyways
* Hang around to the end of the session, many people that would like to ask you questions will be hesitant to walk out of the room to chase you down.

You may also wish to bring:
* Something to hand out (Your business card, demo-CDs, academic papers, t-shirts)

If you would like to have someone introduce you please warn them before hand:
- Your professor? Your company's marketing department? Your open source project lead?

Let people know where to find you:
* For sponsors - be sure to include a slide showing the location of your booth
* For academics - let them know if you have a poster up

== Warning ==

Bring your own laptop, do not expect to install software during your demo (you only have 10 minutes).
* This advice can be ignored if you want to demo the fact you have a slick installer now
* You may wish to make a back up "flash" demo (use wink) in case the worst happens
* Turn off virus checkers, ebay bidding tools, email applications and anything else that is going to leap up and ask for attention in an embarrassing manner

With respect to the Internet:
* Ensure you can connect to the wireless network before starting your presentation
* We will try and have a LAN drop for you
* Expect the Internet to be slow (there are a lot of fun toys at a conference like this all of which want their piece of the packet pie)
* Run from a local service installed on your laptop if you can

== Questions ==

==== Is there a PC with Internet? ====

Please bring your own laptop (that way you can be sure it is set up correctly for your demo), there will be a LAN drop (or you can make use of the conference wireless).

==== How long should a demo be? ====

The demo slot is 10 mins, you may want to use the entire time to show your application. Or you may want to show the application for for 5 mins and answer a few questions.

If your community has several "new exciting features" then please present each in its own demo.

==== Do demo's have to be visual? ====

It depends on what you are showing, if you want to show that "Using JTS Prepaired Geometry is 120% faster" a simple JUnit test and a code example may be all that is needed.

FOSS4G2008 CodeSprint

2008-09-02T06:23:39Z

Wiki-Elem: /* Attending */

Back to [[FOSS4G2008]]...

== Date and Organizing Contacts ==

'''Date:''' Saturday 4 October 2008
We have decided to do this on the Saturday so 'sprinters' don't miss any workshops or socialising during the week.

'''Organising Contact:''' Tim Sutton

'''Contact Email:''' tim@linfiniti.com

== Procedure ==

Read the sections below which provide some background. If you would like to hold a code sprint, add your name (as coordinator) and project name below, then create a detailed project sprint section below. The project sprint section should include some or all of the following details:

* '''Attending''' - a list of people who plan to attend
* '''Goals''' - a brief list of the things you hope to achieve and plan to work on during your sprint session
* '''Preparation (optional)''' - a list of items that should be taken care of before the code sprint so that the appropriate groundwork is in place
* '''Out of scope (optional)''' - items that will not be in scope for the sprint session

If you are planning to attend the code sprint, please add your name to the relevant project sprint section below.

All sprint attendees it will be a good idea to subscribe to this page by ticking the 'watch this page' box at the bottom of the page so that you can be updated if there are any changes in arrangements.

== Interested to organize a code sprint ==

* Markus Neteler: GRASS GIS
* Andrea Antonello: JGrass / uDig

== Code Sprint - what's that? ==

A code sprint is usually organized by a group that is using an open source project and wants to see something done. They fly the developers to a single location and feed them for a couple of days with the necessities of the hacking life (internet, caffeine, electricity). The communication that happens from face to face hacking usually lasts the project for a year or more. You see this a lot in projects like Drupal etc...

== Motivation and Direction ==

A day, a code base, and your imagination?

On the Friday after the conference, a big room with internet connectivity, lots of tables and flip charts will be arranged. Projects can use the time and venue for organizational discussions, development roadmaps, and group resolution of thorny issues in their code bases.

Is this your First Sprint? Here is some background information to get you started:

* http://www.infrae.com/about/activities/sprintathon/tips
* http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/python/2006/10/19/running-a-sprint.html

==Étapes==
Les différentes étapes de la formation du Local Chapter sont les suivantes (issue du [[Fr_localChapterGuideline|Local Chapter Guidelines]]):
# Auto-organisation : ici sur le wiki, connaître les personnes intéressées.
# Préparation d'une mission et des objectifs en indiquant la portée de la représentation planifiée (étendue géographique ou linguistique par exemple).
# Proposition d'une représentation officielle pour assurer la liaison avec le Bureau de l'OSGeo. Si accepté par le Bureau, le représentant deviendra un membre de l'OSGeo.
# Soumission d'une demande officielle de l'intérêt de former une représentation au Bureau de l'OSGeo, listant les membres initiaux, ses missions, sa représentation, sa forme légale (incorporé ?) et toutes informations supplémentaires.
# Considération de la proposition par le bureau de l'OSGeo d'une motion pour former la représentation, et désignant le membre de liaison.
=== 1. Auto-organisation===
Un appel a été lancé sur plusieurs forums pour tenter de mettre en place une réflexion sur la mise en place de ce local chapter. Les personnes intéressées sont invitées à se rajouter dans la liste ci-dessus. Les forums/sites sur lesquelles l'appel a été diffusé sont listés ci-dessous :
* [http://georezo.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=45048 GeoRezo]
* [http://linuxfr.org/2006/11/02/21563.html linuxfr]
* la liste Grass-fr
* la liste Cassini (GdR SIGMA/Cassini)
* la gazette des bases de données (liste du ex GdR BD3)
* la liste du GdR I3 (Bulletin I3)
* membres du Centre de Développement de la Géomatique (CDG, Québec)
* ...
Ce wiki a été mis en place suite à une première réflexion. Une liste à été créée pour réunir les discussions des différentes sites où l'appel a été diffusé.

=== 2. Missions===
Vous trouverez ici une traduction de la présentation de la fondation OSGeo ainsi que du document "Local Chapter Guidelines" : [[fr_OSGeo|Présentation de l'OSGeo en français]] et [[fr_localChapterGuideline|Présentation des représentations nationales]].

Le local chapter francophone a pour ambition de réunir toute personne francophone intéressée par la géomatique libre pour fédérer les différents projets et mettre en oeuvre les missions définies ci-dessous. Cette liste est en cours d'élaboration et peut être modifiée.

==== Liste brute des missions de la représentation====
Ajoutez à cette liste ce qui vous semble pertinent :

* Créer une représentation francophone de l'OSGEO et organiser des rencontres sur une base périodique, c'est-à-dire fournir un réseau de membres pour l'aide (support) et les opportunités de travail;
* Offrir aux utilisateurs francophones une porte d'entrée unifiée au monde de la géomatique libre ;
* Promouvoir le logiciel libre dans la communauté géomatique ;
* Promouvoir les données libres dans la communauté géomatique et chez les éditeurs (aide aux standards libres et accès aux données géospatiales dans la région) ;
* Diffuser de la documentation en français sur les logiciels libres (éducation, aide et développement de contenu d'e-learning dans les langues locales) ;
* Promouvoir les logiciels libres dans la formation initiale et continue ;
* Tester et faire démonstration des logiciels libres (développement d'applications prototypes pour démontrer les possibilités de l'Open Source géospatiale à des audiences locales ou régionales);
* Localisation et Internationalisation des logiciels
* Personnalisation et préparation de logiciels pour des besoins locaux et régionaux
* Promouvoir l'OSGeo et améliorer sa visibilité dans divers forums.
* Accompagner les utilisateurs dans leurs premiers pas sur les logiciels libres supportés par la fondation
* ...

====Liste des missions proposées pour la représentation====
Proposition de restructuration de la liste ci-dessus :

Le chapitre francophone de l'OSGEO décline ses missions selon 3 axes principaux :
# Une communauté libre !
## [[fr_lc_communaute_portail|offrir aux utilisateurs un portail d'entrée pour la géomatique libre en français]] (données, logiciels, jobs, ...)
## [[fr_lc_communaute_rencontre|mettre en place des rencontres sur des thématiques précises]].
## [[fr_lc_communaute_promotion|promouvoir l'OSGeo et ses valeurs]] (site web fr, présence sur les forums ...)
# Des données libres !
## [[fr_lc_donnees_promotion|promouvoir les licences libres]]
## [[fr_lc_donnees_heberger|héberger, diffuser et créer des données libres]]
## [[fr_lc_donnees_liberer|libérer des données]]

## [[fr_lc_logiciels_traduire|localiser, traduire, personnaliser les logiciels pour les besoins locaux]].
## [[fr_lc_logiciels_documentation|encourager la création et la traduction de documentation en français, et la diffuser]].
## [[fr_lc_logiciels_support|fournir du support en français sur les listes et forums de discussion]].

=== 3. Propositions de la représentation officielle francophone ===
====Intérêt de créer une représentation francophone ?====
* Barrière de la langue
La langue anglaise qui constitue la langue la plus utilisée dans le milieu informatique n'est pas toujours bien maîtrisée par tout le monde. Il est donc primordial de permettre à ceux qui la maîtrisent mal ou pas du tout de pouvoir contribuer ou au moins utiliser les outils de la géomatique libre. Diffuser des informations, de la documentation et des documents en Français est donc le premier intérêt d'une représentation francophone.
* Spécificité francophone

* dynamiser la géomatique francophone

==== Structure====
Le statut associatif, bien qu'ayant de nombreux avantages pour une représentation locale, n'est pas nécessaire dans le cadre de la formation d'une représentation francophone. Cela pourra évoluer en fonction des besoins de la représentation, la création d'une association pourra être rediscutée à tout moment. La représentation francophone (appelée plus simplement la représentation) est une association informelle avec à sa tête un président dont la fonction est définie dans la section suivante ainsi que son organisation.

La représentation s'adresse à toute personne qui souhaite échanger en Français sur les thèmes couverts par l'OSGEO et en particulier ceux dont fixés en accord avec les contributeurs.

Toute personne morale ou physique peut participer à la représentation francophone. Chaque personne physique (contributeur) possède un droit de vote.

==== Organisation====
L'organisation de la représentation francophone est structurée de la même manière que les missions. À la tête de la représentation, le président dont la mission principale, en accord avec le local chapter guideline, est de faire le lien avec l'OSGeo, rapporter l'état d'avancement des missions de la représentation, d'autres missions peuvent lui être attribuées par la représentation. Pour chaque mission une commission est crée avec à sa tête un ''chef de commission''. Les commissions pourront être structurées elles-même en projets avec éventuellement un chef de projet en fonction de l'importance et du nombre de contributeurs.

Voici les commissions potentiellement à créer :
# Commission "communauté libre"
#* projet 1 : gestion d'un portail
#* projet 2 : gestion des rencontres
#* projet 3 : promotion de l'OSGeo
# Commission "données libres"
#* projet 1 : promotion les licences libres
#* projet 2 : héberger, diffuser et créer des données libres
#* projet 3 : libérer des données
# Commission "logiciels libres"
#* projet 1 : promotion et démonstration des logiciels libres.
#* projet 2 : localiser, traduire, personnaliser les logiciels pour les besoins locaux.
#* projet 3 : encourager la création et la traduction de documentation en français, et la diffuser.
#* projet 4 : fournir du support en français sur les listes et forums de discussion.

Toute personne peut contribuer à un ou plusieurs projet mais ne peut gérer deux commissions à la fois (pluralité des contributeurs, disponibilité, ...) sauf s'il manque des personnes.

====Élection du président et des chefs de commissions====
Annuellement, une élection est mise en place pour élire un président et les chefs de commissions. Chaque contributeur possède un droit de vote pour chaque personne à élire (un président et une personne par commission). Les votes sont à envoyer selon la procédure établie à une adresse mail ou Internet. Les éléctions sont à la majorité (50 % plus une voix).

Le président et les chefs de commissions ont pour mission de gérer la représentation pour que celle-ci fonctionne au mieux. Toute décision devra être approuvée par un vote des contributeurs, notamment, celle concernant la structure de la représentation, son organisation (ajout ou enlèvement d'une commission), élection du président et des chefs de commissions (liste non exhaustive).
