I've given feedback on the proposed framing Closed Fri 22 Mar 2019 2:03AM
What do you think of the framing in this document?
I went with a generic theme of Peer Garden Stories and we can just include speakers who are close to home as a starting point.

Tuesday is 2ND of April, not 3rd.
And I changed 'discussions' to conversations
I'm in holiday that week, so I might join or maybe not... will depend on weather and all kind of circumstances. But please go ahead!

Looks great! We'll have to ask a few others in the community if they would like to share/present.

I've moved forward on a few pieces of work around this
* proposed a fairly vanilla framing, let's see what emerges
* proposed some dates in the first week of April
* put up some talk ideas in trello, my sense is we go for people who are close to the community

Just did another little push on this
* confirmed the date
* put out an invitation for presenters on the peer garden
Next steps will be to confirm speakers on March 31, get up the event invite and start a social media push to promote it.

I popped into our Trello and made some updates here and there. Please go have a look! Cheers! :) What do folks think of having an organizing team meeting in advance of the 16th?

Oh, and Radu and I have taken a few turns on a presentation deck about Antigonish, and I've reached out to Cory Doctorow through my connection with Mark Frauenfelder to see about him joining us for a later event.
