Hi Campers,

A quick mail to let you know that we now have a venue for FailCamp.  Arul Mani, cofounder of TenthPlanet.in has volunteered to host the event at his office.  The venue is located conveniently on Mount Road, opposite to LIC. Few pics of the venue can be seen here http://www.tenthplanet.in/main/page_page_how_we_do_it.html  (scroll down)

The event will take place on Sunday, 16th November.  Please mark your calendars. (checked to make sure no festivals or cricket matches happens on the day. The 2nd ODI Ind vs Eng takes place the next day).

Feel free to add your ideas here or on our wiki http://www.barcamp.org/failcamp .

Cheers,

Kiruba Shankar

Hello,

Any slated timings (i.e. how early does it begin?) for the same?

Would help to schedule travel timings / flights for anyone coming in
to Chennai that day.

Best Regards,
Manish

Manish and  the  rest of our team,

Here's a suggestion on the schedule.  ( Can change if folks have better suggestions)

9:00 - 9:30 AM -  Coffee, Breakfast & Networking . An  awesome opportunity to causally meet people and make friends.

9:30 to 10:00 : Registration and scheduling of talks on the white board. We will have only one track and hence its best to put your talks early.

10:00:  Intros and we kick off.

Cheers,

Kiruba

Hmmm... realized that I've added only half the schedule. That's 'Duh' of me.  Here's the full one.

9:00 - 9:30 AM -  Coffee, Breakfast & Networking . An  awesome opportunity to causally meet people and make friends.

9:30 to 10:00 : Registration and scheduling of talks on the white board. We will have only one track and hence its best to put your talks early.

10:00:  Intros and we kick off.

12:30 to 1:30 : Lunch.  Kumaran, CEO of Tenth Planet suggested we get packed lunch from a nearby restaurant and we can use one of the conference rooms for lunch.

1:30 to 5:00 : The sessions continue. 

Post 5:00 pm :  Folks can bunch up into small groups and make their own plans. Could be a visit to the bar or a dinner at a friend's place etc. Most of these plans happens on the fly and they can get really interesting! :)

Cheers,

Kiruba
