Event date proposal
raelga opened this issue · comments
What
The initial proposal is early / mid June, but we need to set a specific day so we can start announcing the event and publishing the Call for Proposals. The initial event duration will be about 8 hours, split in 2 days (~4 hours each).
How
By looking in similar events or holidays around those dates (~June) and making a list of posible dates to discuss during the next meeting.
Maybe the 17th and 18th of June could be a good date. Let's keep a look around to see if there is any other relevant event these days.
I vote against 17 & 18th for personal reasons, one week later would be much better. Do we have a calendar where we can see other (tech) events happening on the same dates?
I think a week later is too late (July is around the corner), probably the best is to place the event during the first 2 weeks or so.
I did some research on the conferences and gather this list:
Docker Con is on May 27th
KubeCon is on May 4 – 7
OpenJS World, Jun 2
Cisco Live, : June 8-10
Hyperledger Global Forum, Jun 8–10
Monitorama, June 21-23
GitOps Summit, Jun 22
Spinnaker Summit, Jun 22–24
Google Cloud Next '21, Jun 28-30

My proposal would be:
June 8-9 or June 15-16:
That's Tuesday and Wednesday, so we have Thursday to extend the event if needed.
The final dates will be 8-9 of June, with the 10th a extra day if needed.
