WineConf 2018
by Henri Verbeet 30 Apr '18

30 Apr '18

Hi all, The Wine Project is happy to announce that WineConf 2018 will take place on June 29 - July 1 2018 in The Hague, The Netherlands. As some of you will undoubtedly be aware, this will coincide with the 25th anniversary of Wine. WineConf is the Wine Project's yearly conference, where members of the Wine community, the broader Free Software community and interested users meet up over food and drinks. We traditionally also have a number of talks by attendees, as well as some formal and informal discussions about anything vaguely Wine related. We're still working out some of the details, but since this years' WineConf will take place slightly earlier in the year than has traditionally been the case, we'd like to give everyone sufficient advance notice to make travel arrangements, in particular those of you that would need Visas to travel to The Hague. Subscribe to wineconf(a)winehq.org to stay up-to-date with further developments. Information will also get added to https://wiki.winehq.org/WineConf2018 as it becomes available. Should you have any questions, feel free to send an e-mail to either wineconf(a)winehq.org or me personally, and we'll do our best to come up with an answer. Henri

WineConf 2018 - Friday afternoon programme
by Henri Verbeet 23 Apr '18

23 Apr '18

Those of us that will already be in The Hague on Friday afternoon will have the opportunity to go on a guided city tour through The Hague. I'd like to encourage first-time attendees in particular to participate, since this will be a good opportunity to get to know each other ahead of the main conference. Tours take about 90 minutes, and there are two tours: "The Constitution Walk" [1] and "Dutch politics and history" [2]. We'd likely start the first tour sometime around 15:00, and if there's interest I can make a dinner reservation for the evening. This would result in the following tentative programme: 14:30 Gather at the hotel lobby 14:45 Leave the hotel lobby 15:00 Tour 1 16:45 Tour 2 18:30 Dinner Costs are € 200 per group, per tour, and groups have a maximum size of 25 persons. Depending on the group size, that would be approximately € 10–15 per person, per tour. If you'd like to participate in any of these, please let me know by sending me an e-mail at hverbeet(a)codeweavers.com with the following information before May 14: - Which of these you'd like to participate in: the "The Constitution Walk" tour, the "Dutch politics and history" tour, and/or the evening dinner. - The number of persons that will be participating. - Any restrictions on your side. E.g., in case you won't be at the hotel before a certain time, or only want to participate in case a certain minimum number of other people do, etc. Henri [1] https://www.prodemos.nl/english/visitor-centre/town-walk-the-constitution-w… [2] https://www.prodemos.nl/english/visitor-centre/town-walk-dutch-politics-and…

WineConf and sound recording
by M. GOUJON 31 Mar '18

31 Mar '18

Hi everyone, Recordings of previous wine confs have been somewhat disappointing especially the sound part: microphone buggy, people asking question too far from the micro... Some of you are native English speakers, others not and understanding everyone quickly becomes a challenge (and you ends up with a headache). May I suggest you to buy some clip-on microphones ? Handheld ones ones are heavy and people always forget to speak in it. If you wanna invest some bucks, digital recorders are the best option. If needed, I can donate those missing bucks.

Call for WineConf presentations
by Aric Stewart 30 Mar '18

30 Mar '18

Hello, As discussed during WineConf 2017, I am helping coordinate the talks and presentations this year. In previous years we have been very last minute and laid back in the proposal and scheduling of presentations. While this has it's advantages I have volunteered to help call for and organize presentations further in advance so speakers have some time to prepare the presentation they wish to give. General Guidelines: * Please provide an estimate of how long your talk will be. We are shooting for approximate 40 minute slots with between 15-20 minutes of talk and with likely an equal amount of question and discussion time afterward. Generally shorter talks are not an issue, however longer talks will need to be discussed and will be considered based on the rest of the schedule. * Topics should obviously be of interest to the other attendees, i.e., the broader Wine community, but note that that doesn't imply the talk has to be about Wine itself * If you have a preferred time and date for your talk please indicate that to me when you submit your talk. We will try to make it work as best we can. Here are the rough proposed slots, They will be changed and modified as required by the addenda as it gets fleshed out. Understand that even with this shift toward a scheduled day we will not disrupt productive conversation to fit to the schedule. The schedule will warp and flow as required to facilitate the talk, not force the talks to conform to it. This does mean if you are planing to try to attend a given talk you will likely want to arrive a bit early and understand if when you arrive the schedule is either behind or ahead of plan. Daily Slots: 09:00 - 09:40 slot 1 09:45 - 10:25 slot 2 10:30 - 11:00 break 11:00 - 11:40 slot 3 12:00 - 13:00 lunch break 13:00 - 13:40 slot 4 13:45 - 14:25 slot 5 14:30 - 15:00 break 15:00 - 15:40 slot 6 15:45 - 16:25 slot 7 16:25 - 17:00 Overflow time / small group discussion / short presentations We will track proposed presentations on the WineConf Wiki: https://wiki.winehq.org/WineConf2018 If this more organized presentation proposal process works well, we may try to expand it to include scheduling times in the near future. But for this year getting a working itinerary and scheduling the talks during the opening of the conference is likely acceptable. However if you have a preference toward Saturday or Sunday please express that. If you would like to give a presentation! Please e-mail me directly! I will keep the Wiki updated with presentations and scheduling as we get it worked out. If you would like to see a given presentation, reach out on the mailing list, see if you can get the people qualified to give the presentation to step up and contact me! Likely we will have open time at the conference which we will propose presentations and fill at the time. We have never had a problem finding things we all want to talk about. thanks! -aric

WineConf 2018 RSVP form
by Henri Verbeet 08 Mar '18

08 Mar '18

We once again have an RSVP form at https://www.winehq.org/wineconf/rsvp. If absence of that form was what was keeping you from registering for this year's WineConf, this is what you've been waiting for. If you've already registered by e-mail or IRC, you don't need to register again. (But we don't mind if you do.) Henri

I talked about WineConf at CPPDUG
by Mihai Todor 12 Dec '17

12 Dec '17

Hi Everyone, I did a talk at the Dublin C / C++ meetup yesterday https://www.meetup.com/cppdug/events/245651224/ during which I gave a brief overview of the Wine Project and shared some of the stickers that I had from the conference. The audience seemed quite interested in the topic and I think it would be great if somebody from the core developer team would like to give an in depth talk about Wine over here. Please let me know if you're interested in this and we can try to arrange something for next year. Best regards, Mihai

by Jeremy White 28 Oct '17

28 Oct '17

So I didn't realize it, but we gain an hour tonight, according the slip of paper under my door. So rather than our traditional 9:30 am start time on Sunday, I propose we start at 9:00 am. So it's like I'm giving you 30 minutes more than usual... <grin> Cheers, Jeremy
