| + | * food and drinks should be available (Lebanese food prefered;-) |
| + | * don't put too much strain on one person (e.g. Sean during Sugar Camp Paris 2009) |
| + | * make it possible for remote contributors to attend during the event |
| + | |
| + | === Pre-Event === |
| + | |

| + | |
| + | === During Event === |
| + | |
| + | * introductory round at the beginning of the day (esp. when new people are present) |
| + | * announce how remote contributors can attend during the event |
| + | ** preferably organize a certain time-slot (e.g. mid-day and/or at the end of the day) |
