[FOSS4G-Oceania] ResBaz Sydney - lightning talk opportunity, 9:45am Thursday 5 July

[Martin Tomko]

Hi,
I am off for leave tomorrow, and scraping to finalise work today. ResBaz is an informal gathering for pgrad students, usually start of PhD research or Masters students. Should be fun.Main thing is to not scare them away from spatial/OS. The aim of the program is to expose them to do “X” in a given computational tool, not make them experts in “X”.

Hi Cameron - thanks! I’ll contact you and the ResBaz organisers off-list shortly.

Please feel free to reach out to Martin and Sarah for additional input. My 5min pitch was going to be more or less:

- title slide showing essentially the web site front page
- one slide explainer of what is FOSS4G and SotM (again directly nipped from web materials) and why it’s relevant to researchers (you use the things!)
- one or two slides showing a bunch of OSgeo supported projects and SotM activities (try to help people identify with things they use in their research)
- a slide explaining the academic stream, and where papers would be published
- final slide - key dates and costs

Among those, also working in key items:

- the TGP/good mojo program
- community review process for presentations (blind review followed by committee curation with a progressive stack in mind)
- who are the keynotes
- exhortation to submit papers and workshops!

The end.

Cheers

Adam

Thanks for jumping in there Cameron. Just having a quick look at the ResBaz website<https://resbaz.github.io/resbaz2018/sydney/>, it's targeted at researchers, so perhaps Martin & Sarah will have some additional input on key messages to get across?
