Howdy,

The Forward Tech Fest schedule has been set (http://www.ftf2012.com/) and this schedule basically leaves August 18th as the open day within FTF to have BarCampMadison.

Due to other commitments, I'm unable to lead the efforts to make BarCampMadison happen this year.  So, I'm hoping someone else (or a group) can step up and make this happen.  I will definitely be able to help out (and so will Greg Tracy and others), but I can't be the main organizer.

We have plenty of money leftover from previous BarCamps, so that should not be a problem.  

Anyone interested?

I'm over-committed for this summer.

Sorry guys :{

I would like to help in any way I can.  I'm probably not very useful in the locating a venue department, but if someone else is I can help out in any other way.

Cheers,
Andrew

Hi,

I can help in venue locating, recruiting folks to put up pre so ideas, and anything related to leveraging FTF stuff around that date.

I'll be a bit busy with Madison Ruby, but I'll certainly be able to help at a moderate level.

Hi all,

I can't say I'll be a ton of help by the way of connections/venues, etc., but I can definitely help out with recruiting and organizing and I'd love to get involved.

Let me know what you need help with!

Ok, let's get together and figure out what needs to be done to make this happen.  Aug 18th is just over a month away so we'll have to work quickly.  Who's available to meet tomorrow evening downtown at 6pm?  I'm thinking having it at Horizon, but I'll double check availability with Preston.

Cheers,
Andrew

Hi Andrew:
Horizon is available, and I'll reserve the conference room (seats 8, ~10 if you squeeze) for you from 5:30 on....

My availability isn't guaranteed at that time, but I'll try to free up. The building doors and elevators lock to fob-access at 6, so I recommend starting a little early and having a contact number for someone who can let any stragglers in. (you can always go down/out, and if folks are coming who are 24/7 access your help with this is appreciated :)

Greg and Philip: you have special unique knowledge and power regarding prior years, so any time you can dedicate to pass the torch (and various passwords, contacts, etc) for this year would be great.

Not being in Madison I probably can't help much...

But I'll offer up my projector again, as well as a monetary donation.

Definitely keep me posted as to what needs to be done, how I can help out, etc.

Just a reminder that we're having a meeting at 5:30 pm today at Horizon Coworking on the 8th floor of the US Bank building.  The building doors lock at 6pm so if you get locked out give me a call at 608-320-1138 and we'll send someone to let you in.

Cheers,
Andrew

A little late to this thread, but I am able to lend a hand.
