We are likely to have 3 within the space of about four months - Milan in October, APAC likely in November or December, and then NA in January. Would it be possible to have it be fudconmilan.fp.o or something similar? Or perhaps fudcon.fp.o/milan, and have one centralized page for fudcons in general (which might a great team/group project, if someone wanted to take on leadership), and then the ability to send people to a specific event page? * I realize that wiki is not the best user experience for event promotion - but will attendees still need to preregister on the wiki page? How will you ensure that information on the wiki, and changes to the wiki, are being reflected on the website, or vice versa? -Robyn > > Let me know what do you think > Take care > > Francesco > _______________________________________________ > advisory-board mailing list > advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board _______________________________________________ advisory-board mailing list advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board
