[DG: Euro Sakai] Hosting the EuroSakai 2012?

[Ian Dolphin]

Frank, and All

Let me check out availability for a pre/post conference day in Berlin 2011. This is timely, as we're just beginning planning in earnest.

If we're appending a day to the main conference, I feel that day should reflect European-specific themes, issues and opportunities to get the maximum value. This list seems to be the right place to get started drawing them together...

And, I agree,  Innsbruck could be a great venue in 2012. Thanks to Wolfgang for his very generous offer.

Best

Ian

I think that together with the European Sakai partners (educational & commercial) it isn't a problem to organize an interesting & worthwhile EuroSakai pre-conference.

We could also invite other major European projects that share a common interest like OLAT, e-framework projects (JISC ;), ten-competence, COIN etc, etc. Another idea might be an working session on possibilities for cooperation and European funding. And of course we should also address the different cultural and i18n issues in Sakai community in a European context.
