Establish the parameters for a successful contributor workshop are in anticipation for a World Wide Contribution day on Go's birthday.

Will it be completely remote, or should meetup organizers be planning to book a space for attendees on November 10th?

@nathany I suppose it will be full remote events worldwide, like Go release party. But it would be fun if we have a main on-site event at the day where many Go core team can show up.

I suspect many of the larger meetups around the world would host in-person workshops. Having anyone from the Go core teams (or even some of the well known names in the go Community) promoting that they will be at any of those local events will make them quite successful. We could start by reaching out to meetups to see the interest level in hosting the events, and then see who is willing to travel to said meetups.

I'm almost certain that both Chicago and Denver would host an event, and Minneapolis as well. Getting a team member or community member to any of them would be awesome as well.

Great idea! I can say that I'm definitely interested in organizing that workshop in Bulgaria for the Go Bulgaria meetup.
