OsmoCon 2017 Preparation

+
+
    +
  • + +Planning started in October + + +
    • +
  • + +Schedule planning in December, with little particiopation + + +
    • +
  • + +event announcement too late (Feb 01) + +
    • +
  • + +travel grant funding arrived way too late (March 27) + +
    • +
  • + +14 days ahead of the event we were about to cancel + +
      +
    • + +almost no registrations until that point + +
      • +
    +
    • +
  • + +talk submissions came in way after schedule was full + +
    • +
+
+
+
+

OsmoCon 2017 Experience

+
+
    +
  • + +venue was full, actually overbooked + +
    • +
  • + +talks were good + +
    • +
  • + +recordings were excellent + +
    • +
  • + +strong sysmocom presence, but some diversity + +
      +
    • + +Fairwaves, Facebook, On-Waves, Rhizomatica + +
      • +
    +
    • +
+
+
+
+

OsmoCon 2017 Feedback

+
+

Attendees informed us

+
    +
  • + +one day is too short + +
    • +
  • + +very uni-directional, not much interaction + +
    • +
  • + +schedule too full + +
      +
    • + +consequence of talk submissions too late + +
      • +
    • + +consequence of only one day + +
      • +
    +
    • +
+
+
+
+

OsmoCon 2017 Retrospective

+
+
    +
  • + +I didn’t like the venue too much + +
      +
    • + +hard to get air into the room + +
      • +
    • + +to crowded with no separate room during breaks + +
      • +
    • + +non-functional WiFi + +
      • +
    • + +no-frills, 1990ies FOSS community feeling may not appeal to everyone + +
      • +
    +
    • +
  • + +OsmoCon + OsmoDevCon back-to-back + +
      +
    • + +is lots of stress + +
      • +
    • + +leaves no time to meet up with OsmoCon attendees one day aftewards + +
      • +
    • + +caused OsmoDevCon to be one day shorter + +
      • +
    +
    • +
+
+
+
+

OsmoCon 2017 Changes

+
+
    +
  • + +larger venue + +
    • +
  • + +not a youth hostel but a real hotel + +
    • +
  • + +two days instead of one + +
    • +
  • + +not together with OsmoDevCon but 6 months later + +
    • +
  • + +early-biard pricing should make people order tickets sooner + +
    • +
  • + +formal CfP process with submission deadline, … + +
