Free MySensors 2.0 workshop, Friday 9 September in Amersfoort (The Netherlands)

[barduino]

What a great initiative!

If the video cant be recorded or shared I wonder if you would share some of the organizational details so it would make it easier to replicate this in other parts of the world.

Cheers

@barduino I will do that. I have kept a diary for all the steps we have done.

[CrankyCoder]

Is there anything like this going to be done in the US? I would love to help/attend.

@Jason-Brunk

Where are you stationed? I'm in Atlanta, Georgia. Maker faire Atlanta is coming soon...

[CrankyCoder]

@barduino down in tampa. Definitely not bad considering I can drive to atlanta in like 6 hours.

[CrankyCoder]

@barduino Even if we didn't do a workshop, a mysensors meetup would be cool. I have some buddies here i think would be down for a weekend trip

@Jason-Brunk

Lets not highjack this thread, I'll ping you via PM

Why not broadcast ? :)

Indeed something like a livestream would be great ! Also for the people somewhere else in the world ( or even closer the Dutch people with transporting / time problems like mine :) )

[TheoL]

@the-cosmic-gate Good ideas. I will take all of your suggestions with me when we have a retrospection of this event.

[Dave Dan]

@TheoL , +1 for broadcasting the workshop ... :)

[TheoL]

@Dave-Dan Thank you very much. Preparations are as good as done. I've tested the exercises this evening and they'll worked almost instantly ;-)

I do have place for 3 - 4 more people. So if any one has the time please register, we'll be having lots of fun, drink a beer afterward. I can't wait until the 9th. I'm really excited. If you're more into software engineering and want to know all the fancy and new stuff about Akka, Mesos e.t.c. there are also great international speakers that will tell you all about the bits and bytes during the main event 'Fast Forward with fast Data'.

[franzelare]

Just subscribed, hope there is still a seat available

[TheoL]

Hi @franzelare, I think you've got the last seat. Just send me your real name in the chat and I can check it for you.

[breimann]

@Daniel-Oliveira Brilliant idea! I live in rural Australia and it's so disappointing and frustrating seeing all these cool workshops i'd love to get to happening a "little bit" too far away...!

[TheoL]

@breimann We wouldn't want to keep you up all night ;-) I have to disappoint you guys. We are not filming this edition. Maybe for a future workshop we'll be able to though. But no promise.

[franzelare]

Great event! thanks for organizing!
Although the experience of the attendents was various levels I think everybody had a great time.
Unfortunately I had to leave earlier than most people I had a great time and hope we can setup an other meeting for a next level work shop on my sensors.

[TheoL]

@franzelare It was really great to have all of you guys attending the workshop. And again I thank you all, because what is a workshop without a bunch of great people attending the workshop? The enthusiasm of each of you, drives me to do more of these types of workshops.

But I have to be honest. Last weeks were a bit crazy, I'm going to take some time for my own projects ;-).

It was also great to meet some of you guys on this forum face to face. I would have loved to talk to all of you individually, but maybe we can do that next time. I'll schedule some extra time for that. But I was really touched by each one of you.

[franzelare]

@TheoL you were inspiring! and at least made me enthousiastic to share more of my mysensor projects on this forum and pushed me to finish some of my open projects (in order to post them here)

My girl suggested to add an other workshop next time in a room next door... for the wifes/girlfriends/spouses : how to deal new projects or with a low wife approval factor projects ;-)

[Samuel235]

@TheoL - I think we should get a live stream sorted for the next one ;)

If someone has a DSLR or a webcam, this should be a free option that wouldn't cost anything.

[TheoL]

I'll be closing this topic in a couple of days. But if other people want to organize a workshop. Please reply in this topic or send me a PM. I can share the material, with the adjustments I made today. So we can develop the workshop material together and share our experiences.

If you like to organize a workshop, but are a bit afraid. No worries. We had an excellent time, so will you.
