Mark to follow up with Willem on this | We agreed to setup a web site for people to register to attend the event. (Not compulsorary) We want to get an idea of numbers but more importantly we would like it to become a central site to link to the various foss user groups and where we can aggregate event information such as user group meetings etc. |

We don't want it to be location specific, other than South Africa, but will probably have a break down by province in the long run. To make sure we don't end up in any corporate politics we want to ensure all corporate sponsors etc and mentions only on one page. Willem can you help? '''Suggested domain for web site?''' *foss4sa.co.za/org? *fosswazzup.co.za/org? yeah, yeah - corny names but feel free to suggested others :) |

2011/South Africa/MidrandJHBPTA
After consultation with the various user groups and parties interested in SFD it was decided to hold SFD at a location somewhere in Midrand. We are still looking for venues but the following have been suggested:
- Vodaworld
- The Forum at The Campus in Bryanstone (not Midrand but another suggestion of a venue that would fit our needs)
Organisation of the event
The plan is to have various tracks for the day and organise talks for these tracks. Track may run in parallel but its not necessary for a track to fill every time slot on the day. So far the following tracks have been suggested:
- Java
- Linux
- Drupal
- Android
- Government and FOSS
- Business and FOSS
To Do
Setup a web site that is hoped will be come the focal point of the FOSS community.
