Google is hosting GitTogether '08, October 27th through 29th, at its Mountain View, CA headquarters. This GitTogether immediately follows the Google Summer of Code mentor summit, so some of our end-user groups may already have representatives in the area. We've timed the GitTogether to follow the summit so we can get some users to attend while they are still in the area. Git contributors and users alike are welcome to attend. Admission is free (as everything is being donated by Google), but you will need to arrange for your own travel and lodging. If you are looking at flights try the SJC and SFO airports. SFO usually has cheaper flights as its a bigger, more active airport. At this point we are looking to solicit proposals for talks, round-table discussions, centers of focus for patch hack-a-thons, etc. I'm not certain what sort of facilities (in terms of meeting spaces) we will have available to us yet, and to some extent that may depend on what our program becomes. I'm thinking we should schedule at least one or two day days of the time for unconference style activities[*1*] There's also a pretty good cadry of Git users within Google. If we can get some interesting Git developers here on-site I'd like to arrange for some of the talks to be Google Tech Talks, so people can benefit even if they cannot attend in person. We may be able to get such talks up on Google Video once they clear security. The Git Wiki page is being used for planning: http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitTogether and of course, so is this email thread. ;-) *1* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FooCamp -- Shawn. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
