Revision as of 13:00, 27 July 2005
The meeting
This page is meant to help in the organization of this summer's real life TMW developer meeting. The meeting will be held in Europe, as that's where most of the developers currently are from. Of course people from other continents are welcome too, or are welcome to organize something on their continent! Some details are below, which we hope to clarify as time progresses.
- When: From 11th (arrival day) to 15th (departure day) of August
- Where: The Netherlands, at Bjørn's parents (nearest train station: Groningen CS, airports: Amsterdam/Schiphol, Rotterdam and Eindhoven)
- Who: All TMW developers are welcome! (please put your name below if you plan to come)
- Why: To get to know eachother better and plan ahead on TMW a bit, it's teambuilding.
To the people who are coming: please start making reservations for your trip, you can update this page with details on when you expect to arrive.

Activities
The below is just a quick writeup by Hammerbear, which is probably too much geared towards project planning. Feel free to add ideas of your own!
Day 1
Handshaking, getting ready for next three days. Everybody probably has loads of stuff to discuss with the others are this is where it all starts.
Day 2
Among making sure we survive to the 3rd day, this day we could organize an event where we focus on giving more focus to as many aspects of TMW as possible. Aspects to discuss should be determined beforehand, and this event will probably require a lot of pens and paper.
We'll probably do something hilarious too.
Day 3
The theme of the day will be persistance. It is important not to lose the focus established by now and to write down as much as possible about conclusions taken and future visions discussed. The documents written should be one of useful products of this meeting.
With goodbye getting closer, I guess it's time to have fun while it lasts, and drink more beer than we did on the first two days.
Day 4
We'll tell eachother the meeting was great, and that we should surely have another soon, maybe as soon as the next summer.
Other activities include packing bags, goodbyes, departure, tears...
Comments
Probably the meeting should be planned as a way to know each other and have fun toghether more than a way to plan further on TMW. --ElvenProgrammer
- I somewhat agree, but I think apart from getting to know eachother, which happens automatically I think, we really should try to discuss some important points about TMW's future. --Bjørn 08:20, 7 Jul 2005 (PDT)
Maybe the meeting could take place at my parents? They live outside the city and would have plenty of space to sleep and build a fire, about 60 km from German border. At least it would save us having to pay for a place in Germany, cause at the moment it seems there is nobody in Germany where we could have the meeting at. --Bjørn 08:20, 7 Jul 2005 (PDT)
- This is now the preferred location, the meeting is getting close. --Bjørn 12:45, 9 Jul 2005 (CEST)
