Lessons Learned
FOSS4GHappyHour
With 68 days left until the conference we, the LOC, are going to start trying to connect more directly with those attending and thinking about attending. We are going to have happy hours with members of the committee and sub-committees. These sessions will be run in the form of a AMA.
The live stream will air on our youtube live channel and online chat will happen on the #FOSS4G IRC Channel. We will also be posting on twitter about this using the hashtag #FO224GHappyHour
For each happy hour we will list who is going to be in the hot seat, but feel free to list yourself as participating if you are planning on attending (Hot Seat = NO):
