Context and additional details

lmagnette commented 7 months ago

I've contacted the GDG of Mons and they're interested to host this event.

TomCools commented 6 months ago

Alternatively, if we do this event closer to the end of Januari, then we could get Charles Nutter (JRuby) to come give a talk.

TomCools commented 6 months ago

@TomCools : Check with Kasper Idea: Maybe invite FOSDEM speakers to try out? @TomCools : Check with Charles Nutter

FDelporte commented 6 months ago

FYI, I've a Fosdem talk that may need a tryout "Experimenting with AI and LLM to make docs searchable through a chat application"

This sounds interesting. +1

lmagnette commented 6 months ago

The GDG Mons team contacted me because they encountered an issue with the original venue. Fortunately, they've found an alternative location. The event would still take place in Mons but at UMons instead of the MIC. They've proposed new dates: 18/01, 23/01, or 25/01. Would any of these dates work for you?

TomCools commented 6 months ago

I'd go for 23 or 25. Gives us a but more time to organize. @lmagnette

lmagnette commented 5 months ago

Any news for the date ?

TomCools commented 5 months ago

Hmm😅 i thought you were going to choose after I said "23 or 25" and you gave a thumbs up.

But i'd say 25th now! 😅 could you provide the exact location and a logo for the host? I'll just post a "Quickies night" so we have multiple speakers.

lmagnette commented 5 months ago

Oh ok sorry 😅. Ok perfect for the 25. I contact them to get the rest of the info 😉

lmagnette commented 5 months ago

Here's the location and the logo.:

TomCools commented 5 months ago

Will make the card and draft meetup page tonight. 😊 any limit on attendees? (I'll put it by default on 40). And are food and drinks included?

TomCools commented 5 months ago

@lmagnette Added the draft meetup page already and made you a Host Loic! If you are willing to do the intro and such? Maybe I'll give a talk then since I don't want to host and present a talk. ;)

Could you please review? https://www.meetup.com/belgian-java-user-group/events/298467787/

And let's have a short call, my phone number is in your X/Twitter DMs ;)

TomCools commented 5 months ago

@FDelporte, @octonato, @SimonVerhoeven , can we count on you for a session? ;)

FDelporte commented 5 months ago

Count me in! Will try to make a bit a shorter version of Fosdem talk as a "rehearsel": https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event/fosdem-2024-2379-experimenting-with-ai-and-llm-to-make-docs-searchable-through-a-chat-application/ --> a demo based on Langchain4J (+ JavaFX)

octonato commented 5 months ago

I can't promise anything at that moment. I don't even know yet if I be available on the 25th.

EddieChoCho commented 5 months ago

Hi, May I give a lightning talk about source code design of Spring distributed lock using Redis in this event? https://hackmd.io/@GzkKWjbLTt6YExzxvjL9OA/H1fBMvJ63

TomCools commented 5 months ago

@EddieChoCho, if you can make it to Mons, you are in. 😊

EddieChoCho commented 5 months ago

@TomCools, Yes I can, thanks! :smiley:

TomCools commented 5 months ago

New card, seems a bit more enticing ;)

card for promo

TomCools commented 5 months ago

Promoted at:

@lmagnette, if you have some time in the coming days, you can forward this to the GDG hosts if they want to boost it.

lmagnette commented 5 months ago

I've sent the links to the GDG so they can reshare and hopefully boost it.
