Python Planning

What did we do in the past?

  1. Talks.
  2. Same format?
  3. Did companies pay directly for pizzas (rather than sending money?)

What will we do in future?

  1. Workshops. talks if possible. Advent of code.
  2. Micro talks/lightning talks (2 speakers?) (show demos?)
  3. Combining with open source glasgow (things like raspberry pi and ESP826, ardunio/sensors)
  4. Other projects for workshops/demos: Flask, (virtenv, UV)
  5. RFC for talks, request/proposal for talks
  6. Proposals for workshops/projects
  7. Poll to ask the groups what they want to see (general and specific) [topics/tags/keywords]
  8. How many events? 1 workshop/project event every month. An extra event (2 in a month) when we have a speaker?
  9. When do we start? Soon as possible, informal, plan events for the next year too
  10. What day of the week?
    1. For the club: Thursdays busy, every 2nd tuesday busy. Mon/Wed free.
    2. Poll the group? Day of Week, time of month.
  11. Recurring workshop (can we have them repeat every 3 or so months?)
  12. Fill the calendar in advance (12 month of workshops/projects) plus optional talks (as we find speakers)
  13. Format of the events? Networking time? Q&A? Talks/workshops?

Other

  1. Money? Something informal or with bank account/treasurer etc
  2. Can Python Foundation handle it?
  3. If someone/a company wants to donate, where does it go?
  4. Investigate grants/funds from the council/local authority

How to find speakers

  1. (maybe online talks sometimes)

How should the group communicate?

  1. Meetup python (paid for by the python foundation)
  2. Matrix room? (alternatives?)
  3. Slack (devtechscot.slack.com)
  4. python.glasgow.social (or create your own website)
  5. set up tools like wiki, cryptpad, file share etc

No pizza until sponsorship

  1. Bring your own snacks/beer/drinks
  2. Sponsorship? Advertising/flyers on the tables
  3. Booth? Sales rep?
  4. Recruiters? Or not?

Size of group

  1. How many can we accomodate in the gamer club? 32 seats, maybe 40. Could probably fit more if we move tables around.
  2. Alternative venues?
    1. Civic House (tech meetup meets there) capacity 200?
    2. Eagle Labs (capacity 100)
    3. Split venues? Workshop at one/talk at another
