Planning a conference for June 25

United Way of the Greater Triangle (map)

The NCTech4Good organizers and PINInc/RTPnet would like to have a local nonprofit technology conference similar to those RTPnet had in 2000-2005. We've reserved space for the conference at the Friday Center
in Chapel Hill for Friday, June 25, 2010.

We've rescheduled the first planning meeting for Feb. 11, 11:30-1:30, at United Way of the Greater Triangle, to do initial planning and set up committees. If you would like to help out, please join us, RSVP, and bring your own lunch. Whether you come to the meeting or not, please join the discussion group for planning the conference at http://nccommunities.org/conference-team. I hope we can do a lot of the work using online tools and won't need many face-to-face meetings.

I've started a wiki-like section for conference resources at
http://nccommunities.org/conference . Note in particular the proposed
timeline at http://nccommunities.org/conference-timeline.

I am new to this. I was wondering what will be going on at this conference?

Hi Daniel, That's a very good question! It's basically the first item on the agenda -- should we do a traditional conference with multiple tracks, speakers, panels or should we do a NetSquared camp or both. If both, on the same day or different days. We've got a lot of folks on the list who want to volunteer to help local nonprofits. How can we work that into the conference. Most people on this list have jobs and it's hard to get away for a meeting. You can email your interests to me.
