[FOSS4G-Oceania] Workshop submission update

[Martin Tomko]

+1 on John, +one comment: some of the proposals have strong overlaps. Meaning, the community is interested, but we should not have two of the same angle ( there are 2 on geoserver and AWS). Should we – before putting them out for vote – approach the proposers whether the ywould be willing to combine? ( if not, they will all go to vote). But it may be a good way to help with connections, and guarantee some critical mass. Alternatively, they could angle it to different levels ( beginner vs pro).

Thanks Trisha! That's exciting :)

I've been doing a bit of a countdown on Twitter... see https://twitter.com/FOSS4G_Oceania/status/1022378675545595904<https://twitter.com/FOSS4G_Oceania/status/1022378675545595904>

Will definitely hit it hard this weekend :)

Based on what people have been telling me, I suspect there will be some submissions up to the last minute, feels likely we'll have >10 by the deadline. If so, will need to:

  *   have Alex's Google Form up & running for Wednesday morning for the community vote (1-8 Aug)
  *   be ready to communicate how it works to the community
  *   be ready to make selections quickly thereafter, by 10 Aug
  *   confirm with presenters, finalise the program, and open workshop registrations by 17 Aug
