Revision as of 14:23, 20 March 2019
We're meeting in Seattle on March 28-30!
Organization
Another group meetup/retreat is upon us! Our tentative plan is to get dinner together on Thursday if folks are in town and available. On Friday morning we'll start with a small number of research presentations from affiliates and visitors as a way of getting to know folks. After those, we'll move into critique and feedback sessions followed by some evening fun. On Saturday we will host unconference sessions on whatever folks want to talk about and/or work on. As always, the plans may evolve shift.
Research Presentations
For the first time, we're planning to invite a small number of more formal talks from CDSC affiliates and visitors. There are two goals with these presentations: (a) introduce yourself and your research interests to the group; (b) present finished research to teach us something new! We've got a maximum of ~20 minutes per presentation (and it's a hard maximum) but you are welcome to use less time—especially if you are interested in presenting unfinished work a C&F session.
Critique and Feedback Sessions
For the critique and feedback sessions we're expecting everybody who wants to participate to submit (a) something in writing (e.g., a paper, a Matsuzaki outline, an extended abstract) and (b) a list of questions or types of feedback you want. Please only submit something you want feedback on!
If you want to participate, you need to email something to collective@communitydata.cc by the end of day on Friday, March 22. Not everybody needs to participate but anybody who does participate should only submit one thing.
We're expecting that everyone attending will have read all the material submitted and will bring notes to the meeting. When we meet, everyone who has submitted something will get at least half an hour (more if possible).
When we meet, these sessions will be run with no presentations and no formal introductions. The plan to just jump in and start answering the questions and talking about thing we've all already read.
Unconference
An unconference is a participant driven meeting format where folks can organize sessions on any time they want. On Saturday morning we'll plan to have ~5 1-hour long sessions and 3-4 rooms/spaces. We won't set the schedule until Saturday morning but ideas for sessions you'd like to attend or run include:
- Working with Spark on Hyak
- Revising the online community Wikipedia page
