Folsom Design Conference Open Space

Unconference

The keyword is participatory. That's what makes it different from the regular conference sessions - we're looking for sessions that really engage all the participants, be it in hands on exercises or vigorous dialogue.

Principles and Rule

  1. Whoever comes is the right people
  2. Whenever it starts is the right time
  3. Whatever happens is the only thing that could have
  4. When it's over, it's over

The only rule is The Law of Two Feet.

It says simply that you, and only you, know where you can learn and contribute the most to the work that must take place today. It demands that you use your two feet to go where you need to go and do what you need to do. If at any time today, you find that you are not learning or contributing, you have the right and the responsibility to move... find another breakout session, visit the food table, take a walk in the sunshine, make a phone call -- but DO NOT waste time.

Session Proposals

The actual sessions will be decided in the morning and after lunch each day starting after lunch Monday, but here is your chance to warm your fellow participants to to your proposal on an etherpad: http://etherpad.openstack.org/folsom-unconference-proposals

Schedule

Room is Golden Gate.

If there is no contention for the space, post the schedule here from http://etherpad.openstack.org/folsom-unconference-proposals . Otherwise, negotiate with the other people wanting the space in person.
