Regular Osmocom meeting in Berlin?
Hi all, I was pondering to start a regular Osmocom meeting (monthly or bi-weekly) in Berlin. The idea would be not only to converge the existing developers in Berlin (zecke, roh, prom, tobias, peter, kevin, myself, ...) but to also try to share some knowledge and excitement with other interested hackers in the wider community. A split format for the event might make sense: Have a more or less organized 45min talk about one particular topic + 15min discussion and then switch to an informal meeting style without any particular topic or moderator. For the first half there is a long list of topics intended at informing people about the status and capabilities of the respective projects: OsmocomBB, OsmoTETRA, OsmoGMR, SIMtrace, etc. Regarding the venue, I would suggest to hold it at the Berlin CCC. What do you generally think about this? What day of the week should we be aiming at? Tuesday and Thursday is generally not a good idea, as those are already occupied with other events. If you think it's a good idea, I would request/register the event with the CCC Berlin.

I would say monthly is more realistic. But I'm also fine with bi-weekly.
What day of the week should we be aiming at?
I like Wednesday.
Me too. -Tobias
The idea sounds great to me too. On Mar 30, 2012, at 12:06 PM, Tobias Engel wrote:

Bi-weekly would give more chances to people who travel a lot, to at least make it to it once a month.

I like Wednesday.

Hi, I don't think this is a good idea. It kills the local atmosphere without having any real benefit. Every decision/code and most likely slides will be public anyway. z.
Harald, Looks like a great idea to promote open-source in telecom and recruit more devs into the community. Not to mention all other goals. I wish you all the best in setting up this event and I wish I lived in Berlin. :) I have to schedule a new run of my seminars on GSM and OpenBTS in Moscow as well. Hopefully it will bring more attention from Russian audience as well. On Thu, Mar 29, 2012 at 19:20, Harald Welte <laforge@gnumonks.org> wrote:

Hi, Excerpts from Harald Welte's message of Thu Mar 29 17:20:16 +0200 2012:
I was pondering to start a regular Osmocom meeting (monthly or bi-weekly) in Berlin.
monthly soung good. bi-weekly could also be a good way to invite/welcome new-comers and introduce them to osmocom (which has 1000 subproject), for individual presentation, workshop, tutorial, ... something informal, so to help in the beginnings.
The idea would be not only to converge the existing developers in Berlin (zecke, roh, prom, tobias, peter, kevin, myself, ...) but to also try to share some knowledge and excitement with other interested hackers in the wider community.
I will be there.
Regarding the venue, I would suggest to hold it at the Berlin CCC.
good place
