This is going to be a synthesis of MeetingIdeas and MeetingSpeakers. To be combined into at least a 3-column table. Add past meetings?
|
> > |
Note: this page is a synthesis of the former pages MeetingIdeas and MeetingSpeakers. We're trying to normalize our redundant data a bit.
|
|
|
< < |
The following table lists some speakers and what they are willing to talk about.
|
> > |
The following table lists some ideas for meeting topics, speakers willing to speak on those topics, and previous instances of these topics being presented at meetings.
|
|
|
< < |
And check individual TWiki pages (for example: BruceDawson) to see find topics that person is willing to talk about. And see MeetingIdeas for topics that people have requested. And see the VolunteerList for general volunteers. And don't begin a sentence with the word "and".
|
> > |
If you'd like to add yourself as a possible presenter (pretty please!) do so here, and not in a bunch of other places, so we can have one place to look for meeting planning. Please make sure you have a Main.MyUserName page and add a note there about which LUG's (OurChapters) you're willing to present at.
Also, add topics you're interested in seeing a speaker for.
Note: the above sentences contain the sort of ugly grammar up with which we will not put.
