SLUUG Administration [Planning Schedule Database]
— (current)
Line 1: Line 1:
-====== SLUUG Steering Committee - Potential Tutorials, Topics and Speakers ====== 
-NOTE: Items posted on the wiki are always unofficial. 
- 
-Schedules for upcoming tutorials and presentations are always tentative. 
-(Some more tentative than others!) 
- 
-These lists are used during Steering Committee meetings, when planning presentations. 
-A version of these lists was posted to our DISCUSS mailing list on 25 May 2009, asking for volunteers. 
- 
-====== Planning Schedule Database ====== 
- 
-Trying to integrate the dynamically changing wiki list of potential tutorials, topics and speakers into the monthly STEERCOM agenda and minutes proved cumbersome. Moving the information into a LibreOffice BASE database allowed faster generation of a schedule that can track everything better. ​ Sharing a **Planning Schedule Report** during STEERCOM meetings is easier and faster than trying to update the minutes to show overwhelming data. 
-====== Potential BASE Tutorial Ideas ====== 
- 
-A short period (30 to 45 minutes) prior to each main presentation at the SLUUG general meetings is 
-dedicated to basic subjects. ​ These tutorial sessions often are more hands on and less formal in nature. 
-They are mostly targeted at newbies, although everyone attending usually learns something. ​ 
-Sometimes the focus can be on a single unique command, application feature, concept or technique. 
-Live demonstrations of new hardware or specific application software are welcomed. 
- 
-In general, the tutorial subject should differ from the theme of the main presentation topic. 
-We can repeat these tutorials every few years, as not too much changes with the basics. 
-Different presenters often provide different information and fresh perspectives. 
- 
-As of 2020-02-09 all listed potential tutorial ideas were moved to the Planning Schedule database. 
- 
-====== Potential MAIN Topic Ideas ====== 
- 
-These are some topics that we've had requested, or brainstormed,​ but for which we need to find speakers. 
-They would likely require more time than the basic tutorial sessions. 
- 
-As of 2020-02-09 all listed potential tutorial ideas were moved to the Planning Schedule database. 
-
