Conferences/Summit 14

= XMPP Summit 14 =

The XMPP Standards Foundation (XSF) will hold its 14th XMPP Summit on October 21 and 22 in Portland, Oregon, USA. This is the Monday and Tuesday after the RedisConf, RealtimeConf and WebRTC Camp.

If you would like to participate in this event, please join the summit@xmpp.org discussion list and post with your participation request. Please note that the XMPP Summit is not designed for people who are just interested in learning about XMPP (e.g., we will not have introductory tutorials), but instead for active technical contributors in the XMPP community or folks who would like to engage in more detailed technical discussions.

= Logistics =

We have a block of rooms at the Marriott Portland City Center - please use the conference code "RTL" to get the group rate.

(If you are attending the Realtime Conference, there is also a group rate at the Jupiter Hotel but only through the 20th because someone else has the hotel booked for that night, thus you would need to switch hotels.)

Our meetings will also happen at the Marriott, but in a nicer room than last time. ;-)

= Remote Participation =

We will use the [xmpp:summit@muc.xmpp.org?join summit@muc.xmpp.org] chatroom for coordination and Google Hangouts with a YouTube broadcast for sharing audio and video. The Hangout is limited to 9 participants, so please join the Hangout only if you plan to ask questions or otherwise be actively involved in the voice and video aspects of the conversation.
