Potential RSE Asia Australia conference 2022 #40

Closed rowlandm closed 2 years ago

rowlandm commented 2 years ago

My initial thoughts (sorry I missed the last meeting) would be to do this in September, a month before the eResearch Australasia, do it jointly with eResearch NZ either as separate branding or combined, I would also like to invite Saranjeet Kaur and Batool Almarzouq to think about doing something around the same time for RSE Asia, We would need to get help to organise this conference, just like how AeRO and NeSI helps with the eResearch and RSE NZ conferences already.

What are everyone's thoughts about these four things?

This is the key national meetings I'm aware of that are already part of the calendar.

Might be of interest for the unconference topics:

  1. Value and waste in software engineering: https://neverworkintheory.org/2022/05/23/galster-waste.html
  2. How people really use GitHub Actions: https://neverworkintheory.org/2022/05/23/wessel-github-actions.html

FUNDING: In terms of Dask or their parent organisation NumFOCUS, Genevieve mentioned they usually support many open source projects and initiatives: Sponsored Projects: https://numfocus.org/sponsored-projects

I think what we are striving for aligns with their mission: https://numfocus.org/community/mission

Genevieve suggested to contact CSIRO and ANSTO for funding. Do we know anyone there?
