I've got my ticket, but the schedule still has placeholders rather than a list of talks. There have been a few talk proposals (here), but not many ...

So, who is going, and who has a talk proposal?

(Before you ask, no I won't be giving a talk myself! Happy to network and share ideas though).

[lucamilanesio]

Hi Matthew,

thank you for your reminder :-)

I will definitely post a couple of extra talks, a replay of the ones I am going to do at the Jenkins World in SFO:

- Gerrit CI - How we did it, lessons learned and a brand new Gerrit plugin for Jenkins

- Data mining Gerrit - Gerrit analytics plugin is growing, but more data can be gathered all around for an End-to-End monitoring and analytics

I know for sure that the CollabNet guys had something in mind, Martin is pending approval for his trip and present their multi-master experience and ... Googlers should give us some update on where we are with PolyGerrit and NoteDb isn't it?

*Two things to remind*:

- We *can* the ability to record audio/video if you *like* us to record the talk, you don't have to.

- If you cannot attend but you want to present, we can organize a "remote presentation" as well. If you are on the other side of the planet, we'll try to find the right time-zone to give you space.

Any feedback? We need ASAP the initial draft of the talks, otherwise will be difficult to attract other Gerrit Users to attend the Summit :-(

Luca.

[Dave Borowitz]

Throwing out some talk ideas that some Googlers might want to talk about:

* Gerrit 3.0 update, aka Hello NoteDb

* What's new in Gerrit? Overview of new features in 2.14/2.15 that may entice you to upgrade.

* Gerrit at Google: Multi-master, multi-tenant, crazy database/index/cache backends. Lessons learned. Similar to talks Shawn and others have given in the past, but we are always acquiring fun new anecdotes.

* Findings from UX research/experience by the PG team

* Panel Q&A with Gerrit maintainers

The only talk I'm personally committing to give is the Gerrit 3.0 one. I think it would be nice if we have some other team members presenting, but I'm not promising anything because I literally just wrote this list off the top of my head without consulting anyone.

If anybody has things they would *like* to hear about, but don't consider themselves experts on, feel free to speak up :).

Cool,

can you submit your Gerrit 3.0 one to https://gerrit.googlesource.com/summit/2017/+/refs/heads/master/sessions/ ?

We are only 1 month to go ... and Matthew is absolutely right, we should be putting the agenda now, even if there are some gaps or placeholders left.

Thanks a lot !

Luca.

[Alice Kober-Sotzek]

I could demonstrate and say a few words about highlighting the diff hunks due to rebase if that sounds interesting to you.

[Luca Milanesio]

That would be awesome, I believe lots of people do not really know the new features PolyGerrit UX.

Luca.

[lucamilanesio]

Hi all,

I have uploaded for review an initial *DRAFT* schedule:

https://gerrit.googlesource.com/summit/2017/+/refs/changes/30/124230/1/schedule.md

Please review and provide your feedback ASAP.

We are only one month to go :-) 

Luca.

[Viktar Donich]

I'd be happy to say a few words (or more) about PolyGerrit plugins API support and plans, if that sounds interesting.

WBR, VD.

[luca.mi...@gmail.com]

Sure, can you submit a talk proposal?

Would 20' suffice? What about a short demo of what can be done?

Luca

[Alice Kober-Sotzek]

Am I supposed to demonstrate the new diffing feature as part of What's new in Gerrit 2.14.x? If so, (@David) how much time may I have within the slot?

[Luca Milanesio]

Why don't you just submit a proposal that includes 15-20' demo on this? Possibly just after the "what's new in Gerrit 2.14" talk?

The Break between 10:45 and 11:30 can be squeezed into 11:00 - 11:30 and cut 15' after the Gerrit 2.14 talk.

How does it sound?

Luca.

[Alice Kober-Sotzek]

SGTM. I'll prepare a proposal.

Are you referring to the changes in the improve-diff-for-rebase series [1]?

Those changes are not in the 2.14.x release; they are only included on the master branch and thus will be in 2.15.

There is a What's New in 2.15 presentation from Dave B [2] so you might add your demo as part of that, or in a separate session as Luca suggested if you think there's enough to talk about.

[Luca Milanesio]

Shall we then schedule as follow-up of the What's new in Gerrit 2.15?

Luca.

[Alice Kober-Sotzek]

Oh right. The feature is part of 2.15. Dave, can I have 10 minutes of your slot?

[thomasmu...@yahoo.com]

Why not also setup an irc channel for those that can't make it?

will get even more contributions even if they are not in person.

Thanks to everyone for attending and actively contributing to the success of the Gerrit User Summit 2017.

For all the speakers, please edit your talk details with links to the slides you have presented to:

https://gerrit.googlesource.com/summit/2017

We will publish the recordings of the talks *and more importantly* the associated Q&A on YouTube. Once that is done, I'll post a change on the summit/2017 with the videos URLs.

Last but not least, we proposed to the audience a "mid-way" location for next year User Summit between USA and Europe: Canada / Montreal.

Let us know if the location would be convenient for you to reach.

Luca.

If it makes things easier, you can also email a file (pdf, ppt, etc.) to someone on the Google Gerrit team, and we can host it on the gerrit-talks GCS bucket.

[lucamilanesio]

I started sharing the Gerrit User Summit 2017 videos and transcripts. I will publish one talk per week so that people can have the time to review, digest and comment the content :-)

Hopefully, it would become an important reference and inspiration for all the other users of the Gerrit Community that did not manage to come to the summit.

This week video is "Gerrit @Google" by Patrick Hiesel:
