> Hi,

> the first organisers call for the ninth ODF Plugfest just ended.
>
> Here is a my short summary:
> The call lasted from 17:00 until 17:35 CEST (GMT+2).
> Sophie, Charles, Michiel and myself (Oliver-Rainer) were attending.
> Charles summarized that the LibreOffice conference 2012, taking place in
> Berlin, 17th-19th Oct. 2012, could host the next ODF Plugfest, more or less
> at the same venue as the ODF Plugfest in Berlin, July 2011 took place.
> Oliver-Rainer brought up his thoughts that having the ODF Plugfest right
> before the intrinsic LibreOffice conference would be much better. Otherwise
> it would hurt the attendance of people who are interested in both as the
> ODF Plugfest is typically a full-time event. Michiel agreed and expressed
> that for him it is important to attract as much as possible of the
> technical people around ODF and of the potential users of ODF. Thus having
> the ODF Plugfest right before (15th and 16th Oct.) would serve this quite
> well. Charles volunteered to investigate, if this would be possible.

Yea, that would be great, we just did that for the second ODF Plugfest
held in Orvieto before OOoCon. People interested in both events could
take advantage of such schedule.

/Roberto that is sorry he couldn't make it today

> We did not talk about specific logistics for the ODF Plugfest, about a
> corresponding invitation letter or about any other details.
> Oliver-Rainer expressed that the intrinsic setup and planning of the ODF
> Plugfest event (program, arranging presentations, etc.) should be in the
> hands of the ODF Plugfest community. But there would be no problem, if it
> would be integrated in the overall LibreOffice conference setup and
> planning.
> Michiel hopes that the planning for the tenth ODF Plugfest starts earlier
> in order to have the date and the venue available at the end of the ninth
> ODF Plugfest.
>
> I hope I have summarized everything correct and did not forget something.
> Sophie, Charles, Michiel, please correct/add/improve, if it is needed.
