Revision as of 12:31, 30 October 2008
, 12:31, 30 October 2008Import content from XOcamp page.
There have been a number of excellent "9.1 proposals" posted to devel@ and sugar@ recently. Since OLPC seems to have cancelled [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XOcamp_2 XOcamp], here's a proposal for an alterna-conference during the same time period.
== Proposals ==
== Donations ==
These were donations made for the original XOcamp; the contributors need to be contacted to see whether they are willing to put the money towards a sugarcamp instead.
* [[User:CScott]] (cscott at cscott.net) has pledged $1000 for ''sugar developers''
* [[User:Mstone|Michael Stone]] (michael at laptop.org) has pledged $1000 for ''speakers''
* Christoph ( christoph at olpcnews.com) has pledged $100 for ''anyone''
* [[User:Ohshima]] (yoshiki at vpri.org) has pledged $50 for ''anyone''
* An anonymous donor has pledged $800.
* [http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2008-October/020435.html Peter Robinson] pledged $50.
* George Mavrothalassitis pledged $50.
* [[User:garycmartin|Gary]] (gary at garycmartin dot com) has paypaled $100 for ''sugar developers''
== Housing ==
These were people willing to host speakers during XOcamp; they need to be contacted regarding their willingness to host for Sugarcamp.
* [[User:Mstone|Michael Stone]] (michael at laptop.org) has pledged to house 2 friendly speakers.
* Bill Bogstad can a twin bed in a basement.
* Chris Ball has a flat space.
* Mel Chua (and Chris Carrick) can take 2 guests - air mattress and sofa - and live 15min walking from the airport for those with weird flight times. (mel at laptop)
== Adopt a speaker! ==
These are out-of-town speakers (and links to their proposals) who could present at Sugarcamp.
''Please feel free to add anyone I've missed; I just compiled this quickly by scanning emails to [http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/ devel@] and [http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/sugar/ sugar@] with 'Proposal' in the title. If you're one of the listed developers, please add your location and the approximate cost of airfare, if you can determine it -- or remove yourself if you've made a proposal but aren't actually interested in attending, or can donate your own travel costs. I tried to roughly sort by number of proposals made (talks to be given).''
