Open mikeal opened 10 years ago
I'm happy to go where I'm useful (even if that's being a generic gopher).
In the list, I could potentially be most useful in the debugging, data processing or npm sessions. I'm also willing to learn browserify (as I've been looking for a good time for that anyhow).
I'm happy to mentor if someone calls me on it. Otherwise, I think my strengths probably lie in being general staff===endless amounts of energy.

I am open to mentoring in any way deemed appropriate :smile_cat:
will there be any copter-related activities again this year? If so I am happy to help take care of that in addition to the generalized nerd-herding I anticipate. @aulvi may also be interested...
also, I know he's already reached out but @timoxley will be coming and is very keen to be involved in some way if possible; he's been helping with the workshopper rewrite (nearly done, just need some docs!) and has his functional-javascript workshopper that's been quite popular.
:wave: for Data Processing with @maxogden :chart_with_upwards_trend:
I've been doing a lot of debugging lately, and would be more than happy to help there with @othiym23. I'm also happy to run errands and do other work.

Updated: after lunch with max and jessica Data Processing is confirmed and they are on it. Still need one more though :)
@rvagg which session would Tim be the best fit for? It would be great to have him around the opening day where people might optionally be doing his functional javascript workshopper but I'd need a session to put him in on the full day as well. You know him a lot better than me, would he be a good fit for your C++ session?
@mikeal perhaps not the C++ session, he's a great JS generalist so could work anywhere else, even NodeBase actually.
If @isaacs is having trouble getting an npm workshopper off the ground then Tim would be great at pulling that together because the kinds of validations required for npm wouldn't be straight forward and he has excellent insight to the possibilities with workshopper.
Data Processing and Browserify would also be a good fit for him if help was needed there.
@trevnorris is an excellent candidate for C++ workshop too btw.
If @isaacs does npm I could help with that one, but otherwise would be happy to do the C++ one. I have a new hobby of NANifying other people's modules when I want them to work under node 0.11.
I feel like finding people for npm will be easier than for C++ :)
So true :P
@ceejbot no! I know you're npm Inc and all but I need help with the C++ one. I'll add you to a private repo soon.
I'd like to do data processing too unless you want me for general staff / liquids distribution still.
I'm up for whatever.
Good call on @trevnorris, I'll reach out. I need to talk with @isaacs about the npm session still.
I was going to suggest @nvcexploder, so it's rad we agree. :tada: :cat2:
@dshaw knows a thing or two about debugging and monitoring, and if somebody could kidnap @tjfontaine, @davepacheco or Max Bruning it would allow us to go that much deeper on postmortem debugging and prod debugging with DTrace and mdb.
I may ask tj to come on to the C++ session. Ben and dshaw are already on the repo so ill let them respond on their own behalf.

When are we doing the "How to help your Fortune 500 company effectively understand how to work and grow with Node" workshop? I want to do that. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
I'd actually love to do the tracing API with @tjfontaine. Would be an insane amount of work to get there, but worth it.
I have no intention of being helpful.
:)

Proposal: @hueniverse on why domains suck
I thought the point of this year's NodeConf was less core, more modules?
Also, if anybody's gonna talk shit about domains, I want it to be ME. So much to say...
I would very much like to see this happen. @othiym23 + @hueniverse
@dshaw nodecoreconf
Summer Camp!
Sure, I Could do nodebase - though would love to split this with someone else though, and possibly get a chance to attend another session or two!
@dominictarr we can switch back and forth if you want, you're a C++ programmer now aren't you? I'm pretty sure you love C++.
@dominictarr In the second day I can make sure you're not overlapping and you could pop in to the advanced section of some sessions you want to get in to. You probably don't need the 30 minute intro time for any session anyway and I'd like to keep everyone in their own sessions on the first day. You'll have help with your session, more than last year, just let me know who you'd like to have, @Raynos has offered.
Based on conversations here and a few in-person:
Added @nvcexploder to Debugging.
@substack do you have any suggestions for people we should bring in for the browserify session? I sort of stole all the obvious people for other sessions :)
Added @visnup to data processing.
@substack What about adding @thlorenz to Browserify session?
@thlorenz would be great for a browserify session if he wants to help
added @thlorenz to Browserify session.
Thanks @dshaw @substack and @mikeal. Looking forward to showing people the browserify way \o/
:thumbsup:
I'd mostly just like to experience a session given by someone else, otherwise I feel like I'm only guessing at my approach, but that way I can learn from them.
Also, I'd probably want go to the webgl and C++ sessions.
If enough people can commit to getting in a day early we could spend the day at someone's office doing each other's sessions.
What do ya'll think?
It would be a pretty good chance to refine and test out everyone's sessions.

Happy to try that. On Mar 5, 2014 2:07 PM, "Mikeal Rogers" notifications@github.com wrote:

Happy to try that aswell.
@mikeal yes! that would be perfect!
I'm so down for that, last year I didn't attend any sessions so this would be a real treat.

:+1: for separate session a day before.
Sounds good to me! :)
I too would be really into this. There was a huge gap in quality between most people's first sessions and all the other ones last year (including cough mine); a real dress rehearsal would have helped a lot.
I'll come and ask annoying questions to get your battle tested.
@mikeal could you please add me to list of mentors on the homepage? Makes it easier to convince my boss that I am actually a mentor and just have to go :)
You can just use my github avatar.
Thanks.
I'd like to assign mentors to the sessions we've already committed to so that I can get an accurate count.
Remember, anyone mentoring a session is basically opting out of "attending" the conference. You'll have some time in the second day to go around and check stuff out but you won't be able to attend the regular sessions since you'll be mentoring them the entire time :)
Currently allotted:
@rwaldron)I'd like 3 mentors per session which means the only ones that have enough are the Robots and OpenGL sessions.
The two proposed sessions may not happen. But, I don't want to assign Max or Isaac to a different session until we know that we aren't doing them.
I'd like the people already mentoring a session to request who they want to work with, whether they are already in the repo already or not. We need a good amount of general staff in addition to the mentors so I don't expect everyone who is staff in this repo to be a mentor.
That said, these are the people not currently mentoring a session that could mentor, if they want to:
Like I said, I'll need a good number of general staff, so if too much of this list becoes mentors I'll have to add more people as staff. Also, if someone isn't on the repo yet and you want them as a mentor we can make that happen as well.
Oh, and Jake Verbatten (@raynos) reached out and would also like to mentor so he's a good candidate.
