> *---- Notes 29/05/2012 ----*
> *Joris's feedback on 2012 event*
> * this year's event is different from OKFest
> * tickets are more expensive than OKFest 2012, so audience will be
> different
> * feedback from OKFest2012 Science event:
>
> http://science.okfn.org/2012/09/19/okfest-open-science-and-culture-hackday-project-2-louhos/
> The hack event with a clear plan from the start was most productive
> Last year, few devs/techies but otherwise very productive
>
> *Details on this year's event*
> * OpenGLAM has a satellite event on Monday, they've booked a room for 30
> ppl -> get in touch with Beatrice (the main organizer)
> * Main OKCon venue is an official conference venue, pretty strict rules.
> Perhaps consider another opportunity.
>
> *Discussions on the satellite event:*
> Problems/opportunities for one-day event:
> Experience from culture hacks: Joris: leave people on their own => not
> much happens
> * mixed audience in the same room -> possibly a fail
> * contribute small actions on existing projects works fine
> * take into account the competences of the different people
> * plan things for non-techies (the projects should implement this too)
> * pay attention to pre-defined teams and topics, can be a bit restrictive
> * work interdisciplinary by finding a right balance between competences
> given aims of the activity
> * ask the different idea/topic-propellers to define the basic competences
> they'll need to get their stuff running good idea!
> Naming "hack day" implies coding, maybe consider other name?
> communicate that deliverables are good to the projects. Deliverables can
> be:
> - presentation 5min at end of day? << yes
> - write short summary to a blog post for OKFN? << yes!
> - share mind-map or other things produced during the day? << why not, but
> this is a very specific thing and generally leaves everyone puzzled cuz it
> reflects one's vision and links ;)
>
> Submit proposal for satelite event before Friday 31st:
> http://okcon.org/call-for-proposals/
>
> idea: set limit on number of topics/pitches/projects to work on
> e.g. if we can accommodate 30 participants, let's set a limit to 6-8
> topics
>
> *Next call:* in two weeks from now (around 10-14 June), we send a Doodle.
