NodeDay Proposal #5

Open turboki opened 10 years ago

turboki commented 10 years ago

Hey everyone. We came up with a proposal for NodeDay and a list of potential speakers. Let me know what you guys think.

Format

The day would be arranged with 6-8 45min talks, finishing out with an hour long panel discussion. The talks would be technical in nature and would comprise a good mix of the themes below (core, enterprise, portability). The panel at the end would be an open discussion of the future of node, the proposal of the consortium and a QA session with people in attendance. Of course if this something we wish to do, we would need to start the discussion ahead of the conference just to make sure we are all on the same page. The idea would be that if we (the big corporations) were going to start taking an active role in Node, we want to do it transparently and in the open source, communal way.

We were also thinking of adding a weekend hack-a-thon. At the end of the day we would pose a challenge. Those who would participate would submit their entries by EOD Sunday and would come back in Monday for judging and awards.

Based on Jeff's feedback, there would be a nominal registration fee ($10 or so) to minimize people registering and not showing up.

Dates

We have 3 potential dates available:

3 themes:

  1. Core node (error handling, performance, V8/libuv, package management)
  2. Node at enterprise scale (logging, monitoring, artifact management, integration, use cases, security, standards and practices)
  3. Node/JavaScript as a multi platform strategy (Client, Server, Embedded)

Hey @jeffharrell, Erik or Poornima sound great for a talk. I tried to cut down and prioritize the list down so we can start reaching out to people. Here is who would be great from my perspective as speakers. @dshaw can you work with me on getting in touch with these folks and seeing what dates would work for them? We are ideally trying to lock down the date by next Monday and then lock down all the speakers by Monday after (9/1)

Core Trevor Norris Bryan Cantrill

Enterprise Erik Toth/Poornima Venkatakrishnan Dav Glass Alex Liu

Embedded Jia Huang / Kelsey Breseman

@siddharthram will also reach out to the Meteor folks to see if there is any interest from them in participating.

Word from TJ Fontaine is that he doesn't have any availability until December. I'll continue the discussion with Joyent and see how they can engage. Will explore with Scott Hammond, the new Joyent CEO, separately about the closing panel.
