Hi Luvers,
I think LUV could have a (or more) team(s)at this event this weekend.
(see below)
If anyone is interested, ** please register and let me know **. I have
registered.
For info:
1. I will go to the idea sprint on 28 May. (Thursday).
2. Last year I went to this event (or equivalent)...and I had no idea
what it was all about before going! I just went there teamed up with 4
other people I have never ever met before and ... we actually won the
2nd Prize!! from about 12 or 15 teams. I consider we should have won
the first prize, but as it was a return ticket to USA, that made it
difficult to share between 5 of us!! ...So put it this way, if the
judging criteria is same as last year, I have a fair idea what it takes
to win a prize! (and what it takes not not win one!!)
3. If you are interested, please email me with skills you can
contribute. Note that non-techies can also be involved, infact I think
this is why we did well last year, as we had a good balanced team with
highly complementary skills.
Someone with Open Street map api skills or Google map api (or the Nokia
stuff - forgot how its called?) would also be highly useful.
People who can put up a good webfront with python/php/perl etc backend
quickly.
Someone with good communication/marketing skills also useful.
Cheers
Daniel.
